Picked this up during the initial pre-order, but I don't have time to play with yet another project, so I'm putting it up for sale:


This device currently has Mobian installed and is stored with a thin piece of foam between the keyboard and screen. I'm asking $110.00 shipped within the Continental United States. Thanks for looking.

Photo Page allocation failure on KDE Community edition -"0 pages hwpoisoned"
Posted by: countcitrus - 02-19-2021, 04:17 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Hello all,

I recently received my plasma mobile community edition Pinephone. Everything's gone fine until today, where the Angelfish browser crashed. I've had the same long error message since this morning on a terminal screen, which is stuck on the error message '0 pages hwpoisoned', although there is a much longer traceback.The phone will interestingly enough respond to moving my mouse and touching, although I do anything but move the cursor.

Has anyone else run into this issue? Does anyone else know any fixes besides removing the battery/letting the battery run out? The phone isn't responding to the power button, and I really really don't want to brick this, although I doubt it will ruin the firmware.

Thanks! Smile

  Community game night :)
Posted by: Luke - 02-19-2021, 02:48 PM - Forum: Community and Events - Replies (7)

Hey all,

This weekend, primary on Saturday, we're playing Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart.
For those of you who don't know, SRB2Kart is a game built based on Sonic Robo Blast 2 and the best way I can describe it is "as if original Mariokart and Mariokart64 had a baby" - it is a lot of fun and it is FOSS. Here's a video I posted earlier this week.

The game runs well on the RockPro64 and Pinebook Pro.
Installing it on Manjaro is easy - follow the instructions here.
After installing the game, download the config I've made and plop it into:

Code:
~/.srb2kart/

The game is quite challenging to run despite being built on the Doom engine, so you may wish to install it on your PC instead of an Arm board for the full-blown experience. A quick internet search will let you know how to install the game on your particular distribution - there is no point in me listing all options here. For those who wish to build it from source - here's the project's github.

Here's the details for the server we'll be playing on:

Quote:srb2k.servegame.com


See you there on Saturday late evening / night CET.


  Deep sleep shutdown the phone
Posted by: bitsandnumbers - 02-19-2021, 01:58 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (19)

Hi,

I've recently got the Mobian's Edition PP and am having an issue with deep sleep since day one, shortly after doing the dist-upgrade. Here are the steps and the outcome :

1) I set deep sleep "on" in settings (be it on charge or on battery)
2) I let the phone go into deep sleep
3) When I come back, pushing the power button boot the phone : the phone was actually shut down (expected behavior : resume the phone and show the lock screen)
4) I enter my encrypted fs password
5) The phone try to boot ... then shutdown
6) Pushing the power button does nothing
7) I have to remove the battery and put it back on for the phone to boot again, or plugging the phone to a power source can also do the trick
8) Then everything is back on track until next deep sleep

At first, I thought I could find the answer on the forums or social networks, that it was a known issue, but no deep sleep issue seem like this one precisely.

As a side note, I've noticed other issues that could be related :

- Chatty don't launch after a cold boot : I have to kill the process and run it again for the window to appear
- Same with the phone app : cannot make calls until I kill the process and start it again
- I actually never got the GPS working : I tinkered a bit applying Mobian's Wiki tweaks, applied the script to speed up the fix, played with mmcli and other stuffs, but never saw any GPS icon in the statusbar nor got any GPS based location in Gnome Maps or Pure Maps (only from Cellular and Wifi). Again, I thought : maybe it's the experimental nature of the phone, until I realized reading blogs and forums posts that some people actually do see a GPS icon in the statusbar (or do they ?) and get GPS location in Mobian.

I understand of the experimental nature of the Pinephone, and I actually love the potential that it bring. I'm not ranting in any way, I'm just thinking that if the issue is on my side, it will not be solved with the next update. And since I'm out of idea to find the cause of all this (mainly the deep sleep issue which is the most annoying), I'm hoping someone know better on the matter and has some idea as to where to start looking...

And thanks for all the community work !


  refined proposals for pinephone. two options or both
Posted by: zetabeta - 02-19-2021, 01:44 PM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (3)

refined proposals for pinephone. two options or both:

option a: slightly better pinephone, only slightly

high priority:
wifi ac, particularly 5GHz
full hd display, and maybe slightly bigger like, 2304x1152
bigger battery, maybe around 5000mAh, which increases price and size.

medium priority:
more ram, 4gb ram
64gb internal memory

low priority:
better cpu

option b: pinetablet
which is comparable to pinebook pro and is physically bigger in size. still having modem in it and possibility to carry calls, although "earphones" may not be crucial. pricetag would be around 300 us$.

edit: by "earphone" i meant calling using ear speaker, related to ear screenlock. headphone calling should be available in possible pinephablet.
