Last week I asked @"Aberts10" to do a bit of cleaning on the forum. Threads that haven't seen activity prior to January 2021 have been locked to prevent "necro-posting". Content of the threads is still available, of course. 

Stickied threads have also been reviewed to make sure they're still relevant.

Hello,

I have a big problem... Soon we switch from HomeOffice to presence teaching at my professional school and I need a working PBP there. All my past notes live inside Xournal files and I'm very bad at using pens, so I completely relied on my PBP in school.

Since a few weeks, I randomly encounter the following problem:
Out of sudden, mostly when moving the PBP gently the screen blacks out instantaneously, only the backlight stays on. The only thing I may do then is to turn it off via holding the power key.

It isn't just the screen, as I was hearing music lately and it blacked out, the music stopped too and 2 seconds from there my bluetooth headphones played there "disconnected" tts voice.
I also looked at journalctl, but there are no traces of whatsoever. Thinking it may be a loose eMMC or the latest kernel upgrade I grabbed a fresh manjaro image, dd'ed it onto an µSD card and booted from that. It didn't even took me 10mins while configuring the new system to hit the black-out problem :/
Looking inside, nothing seems to be odd, I checked all the connectors, replugged them but that dind't change anything.

Now I'm "at the end of my latin" how you would sometimes say in germany. I don't know what to do now and I didn't find any other mentions of such a problem here or via google. So i may ask: Has anyone any idea how I can fix this, debug this or where to look for further help?

Kind regards,
Jochen

I want to remove the snap version from my Pinebook Pro. Is this possible?

Hello,
I have a ANSI Pinebook Pro I’d like to sell.  I love the computer, but I’d rather go back to linux on Intel for software reasons.  This laptop has been lightly used… see pictures in the post below.  It will come with the 2 meter power cable and a 5v/3amp charger.

I’m asking $180, and I will pay the shipping within the US. I plan to use UPS to ship. I'm open to globally shipping, but that would probably be an extra charge (don't yet know anything about shipping globally).

Feel free to private message with any questions.


Thanks,
Andy


Edited price to $180. I’d rather the pbp go to someone in this awesome community, rather than listing elsewhere.

Hi,

I updated my Manjaro KDE installation (Pinephone 32Gb/3Gb) recently, and after that I cannot even boot into an OS. I tried first with the eMMC, does not work. Then I tried several images from the SD (Manjaro, PostMarket, Mobian, even JumpDrive). No one works, the phone just vibrates, and the screen lights during 5 seconds, but nothing happen after that. I tried also with the reet botton.

Any suggestion?, thanks in advance

I'm learning some linux.. But how do you copy and paste into the mobian terminal? Commands you read on the phone.. Or do most on here ssh into the phone and fix stuff from the computer instead of typing in long commands on the screen? Thanks

Hi. I tried this guide.. I think i did everything right, but i might have missed something...

Hello,

Hi guys,

once every few days, sometimes weeks, my phone's system time leaps to 22 July 2116, which of course has a lot of side effects (on axolotl, geary, calendar and so on). 

Has anybody else experienced this? And is there a fix?

Best, Anna

for some reason my key board is doing something weird. Every time I press the number one or the letter q, it enters the number 2 or w. so I reinstalled mobian and the same thing happened. this is a deal breaker for me. so if someone can help that would be great. For now, my sim card is going back into my android.
