  Is there a priority list for features/ bugs, that have to be implemented/ fixed?
Posted by: stamat - 05-14-2021, 08:00 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (17)

Hi, guys,
I've just received my Pinephone and found that:
1. it is not recognizing Sim card contacts (exported to Sim from a FirefoxOS phone and recognized by an Android 8.1.0 tablet - already read about few problems relating to that in this forum;
2. display properties set to Sleep = 10min and Turn off = 15min, cause the phone display to sleep on every second, and it was hard to set it to = Never and = Never, to can do any work with the device... With Never-Never the phone display is alway ON;
3. not succeeding to transfer a file from the FirefoxOS phone to Pinephone via Bluetooth but to the Android 8.1.0 tablet it is OK. The file, that I tried to transfer is the .vcf file with the Sim card contacts;
4. Now, an Update (324) is available, and I am trying to update for second time, because I am not sure what happens the first time...
5. Some apps found on the Pinephone device, which are there, but do not do any work, actually do not work.
That's for the moment.
Best Regards


  minicom to access quectel modem
Posted by: Rainer - 05-14-2021, 07:58 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (3)

hello,

decided to post my query here but it is really a continuation of my possible modem problems in the hardware section,

https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=13885

in trying to understand my problem with my limited knowledge i consulted the pin64 wiki page - modem section,

https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone

and realized i had to use minicom to get at the information i wanted. i downloaded minicom and am now stuck at how exactly to set up my serial device in minicom! i would like to be able to see the volte list in the above link for the command, AT+QMBNCFG="list". i have a feeling this may be part of my problem. i am on a budget network of telus in canada, koodo/telus. when i enter the command, minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB2, again from the above link, i get the message 'cannot open serial port ttyUSB2.

any help would be appreciated,

thanks


Question Vibration not noticable
Posted by: GeraldS - 05-14-2021, 07:41 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - No Replies

I just received my (sealed) PineTime and naturally updated the firmware to version 1.0 (according to Getting Started and the Wiki Guide).

I'm pretty impressed by it, except for one thing:

The vibration for notifications is not noticable. When the watch lies plain on the table and a notification is received I can hear a faint sound. On the wrist I feel nothing at all.

I looked at the Quick Actions menu, toggled the notification settings on and off (green and gray I presume) a couple of times, rebooted the watch, but to no avail.

Is it possible this is a software issue that could be resolved in a newer version, or could this be a hardware defect?

I found this issue about the duration of the vibration, but I don't think the duration is the problem. There is no vibration noticable.

  Ofono gsm
Posted by: Kraotacen - 05-13-2021, 07:52 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - No Replies

Is there any update from the Manjaro plasma team on getting GSM SIM cards to work properly with ofono or any work arounds? I really enjoyed playing with plasma on my phone for a few days but had to switch to Mobian because while I don’t like it near as much modem-manager at least works properly with GSM.


Question SSH Through USB Cable on Windows?
Posted by: Merc - 05-13-2021, 06:45 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Has anyone SSH'ed into the PinePhone through a USB cable on a Windows (7) machine? I was able to do it quite easily on my Linux computer so I know that it's something that can be done (at least on Linux), but trying to do it on Windows seems like a different beast.

The Pinephone shows up in Devices and Printers but it has a yellow exclamation mark. In Device Manager is shows up as a "CDC ECM" device again with a yellow exclamation mark. I'm guessing I would need a driver that that doesn't exist but I thought I would ask.

Edit: I've gotten it to work, unfortunately I'm too tired to explain how I did it right now.


  Remove webapp?
Posted by: Brad - 05-13-2021, 12:40 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

I have made a webapp which is now installed on my frontpage with the rest of my apps.  I now want to remove this but I can't seem to find out how to do it.  Searching the forums didn't turn anything up.

Can anybody assist with this?

Thanks


  Pinephone BE keeps locking itself when unplugged
Posted by: arjan1995 - 05-13-2021, 06:26 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - No Replies

Got the PinePhone BE yesterday and have a very annoying issue.
All of a sudden it started locking it self down after a few seconds of unplugging the charger.

It then shows the lock screen. If you enter the pin it will work for a few seconds and then the same happens again.
If plugging it in, the phone keeps working just fine.

For now i could only fix it by simply removing the lock screen command:

sudo mv /usr/lib/kscreenlocker_greet /usr/lib/kscreenlocker_greet.bak

But why is this happening???


EDIT:

After the file was renamed the keyboard still kept dissapearing.
Since i saw the post right below this one was "not to use the Display section of Settings" and that was exactly what i had done to increase the timeout.

I have since fixed this issue by performing the file changes of https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...8#pid93468 and then renamed the kscreenlocker_greet file back to its original name.
