In the last week of so I have noticed my PPpro will get a flashing LED notification in an aqua blue-green color, I think this is for a missed incoming call.
I really liked the Notification LED on the Nokia N900 and how it was used, breathing orange for charging, red flashing for low battery, green external power & fully charged, blue for USB host mode, I think there was a flashing blue LED for received IM or SMS too.
If the new flashing aqua color LED notification is for missed call how do we end/kill the LED notification(calling back doesn't work nor does clicking the notification).
What other notifications would you like to see added as clickable options for the notification LED?
me I like:
Charging - red:below 5-10% breathing orange:charging chafged ext power:green
messaging phone - aqua flashing:missed call blue flashing:SMS blue flashing pattern:messenger new color:email
Navigation - red-blue flashing: lost GPS, signal pattern speed varies on how bad signal accuracy gets
maybe notifications to see if a call or whatever is a secure VOIP vs a non-secure cellular call
whatever these are should be user configurable including changing the colors and patterns

Hello everyone.

Please tell me, has anyone tried to install Trisquel https://trisquel.info/  or Parabola  https://www.parabola.nu/ distro with linux-libre kernel on a Pine64 RockPro64 single board computer?

Free GNU/Linux distributions => https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html


As reported on the FSF-Free Software Foundation website.


Rockchip devices based on the RK3288 or RK3399 chips are usable with free software. Accelerated video encoding/decoding is supported with free software, with upstream support on-going via the "hantro" driver. These Rockchip devices have Mali GPUs supported via the free Lima and Panfrost drivers. Display out over type-C requires a proprietary firmware on RK3399, but HDMI may be used instead. Wake-on-word functionality with the RK3399 DSP may require a proprietary firmware. More recent Rockchip devices require nonfree blobs in order to boot.

Hi all, I've been experimenting with PostmarketOS on my PinePhone and wanted to share some findings regarding power management. After tweaking the suspend settings and disabling some unused services, I noticed a significant improvement in battery life—up to 20% in idle usage. I'm currently exploring better ways to manage modem power states and GPU frequency scaling. Has anyone here implemented a custom udev rule or kernel patch to further optimize standby consumption? I'd love to collaborate or hear about your setups. Let's make PinePhone even more efficient together!

I left my PinePhone in a drawer too long and now the battery is almost completely dead.

I don't have an external battery charger and if I connect a wall charger to the phone, the battery charges for a few seconds then tries to boot and dies after a few seconds tries to boot again, diess, over and over.

I did an amazon search on the replacement models in the wiki and the one I bought turned out to be about 6mm short in bothe diemension. Is there a specific battery that I can buy on amazon that will work in a PinePhone?

Is there a way to keep the PinePhone from trying to boot before the battery is charged enough to boot and run with a charger connected by USB?

I had to get a new phone and switched from Android to iPhone. I didn’t really want to, but because of budget, my old phone dying, and the only thing my carrier had that I could do a payment plan on that didn’t have AI crap was an older iPhone. 

I was using gadgetbridge and everything worked perfectly on my old phone. With InfiniLink being the only app for iPhone I can’t seem to get texts to go to my PineTime. Am I missing something or is that option not available? It seems weather isn’t available either.

Thanks!

I have a pinephone community edition running mobian.
Most of the time it sits, off, because we're not allowed to have phones at work, and I don't have a lot of people to talk to (when I'm at home, I use my desktop, anyway).

I've noticed lately that plugged into my computer, it seems to lose about 1% power every 3 minutes or so.
Plugged into the power outlet, however, it seems to lose about 1% power every 3 minutes or so.
The only way I seem able to charge it now is to turn it off and plug it in.

I've set it as power-saving as I can figure out. It sits in suspend mode with the screen off.
I have wifi, bluetooth and cellular on.
The battery icon shows the thunderbolt, and I get the message that its charging... but it's draining faster than it's charging.

There's nothing wrong with the cable; I've used it to connect an android tablet that charges just fine.

I've flipped the usb-c end in case there's a frontwards/backwards way to insert it (hey, I'm desperate).

It does not get hot. Plugged in or not, it only gets *slightly* warm.

Can anyone help me with this? I haven't seen this specific problem anywhere in the forums. I love my pinephone and don't want to give it up.

Hi,

Could anybody advise DeskPi case alternative for ROCK64 ?
Need case with simiral formfactor and functionality...

Where do you get a debian 12 image for the rockpro64? Thanks.

Hello all,

I unfortunately dropped my PinePower the other day and broke the earth pin on the UK plug adaptor. Does anyone have any suggestions of where I could get a replacement?

Thanks!
