Not sure where to post this, but I'm having trouble getting my app working on mobian, works ok on a desktop.

I'm making a geocaching app for mobian and it's mostly working except when clicking on caches on the map, double clicking to zoom in doesn't work either.

A current build can be found here: http://files.evilbunny.org/geocachingapp.deb

The app is far from finished, so far you can login and download caches and move the map about by clicking and dragging. If you run it on a desktop you can click on a cache and it outputs to stdout the cache ID, pinching to zoom on mobian doesn't seem to work either.

The signal to detect clicks on the markers is "button-release-event", I'm not sure if this signal is being sent to apps based on touches, and libchamplain doesn't seem to track/pass on "clicked" events to marker objects.


Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi guys,

I recently noticed a strange behavior with my pinebook pro and I hope it's not a sign that the charge module is giving out...

So problem is the orange power light that indicates charge is blinking when I try to charge my pinebook pro, but it does'nt do that when the pinebook pro is on...
It did not do that even a day ago so I'm kinda baffled, I also recently updated the pinebook pro so maybe this has been updated along?

Can anyone help me troubleshoot this issue?

Edit: I've browsed the forum and it looks like other people are having charging/power issues with the latest updates as well, I hope this is related because I haven't read any issue exactly similar to mine, this is kinda re-ensuring tho...

Hi, I have the Manjaro convergence package, just getting started with the phone. I read it's very important to do an update first thing, there is indeed a bunch of wonky stuff going on. I have the dock plugged in and powered, but the screen says "undocked". Was hoping to update through ethernet via the dock at home, that is my strongest known internet variable. Do you have to activate the dock in software?  thanks

Edit: I also note that the battery power is diminishing, although power is plugged into the dock. Which would make sense as the phone is not seeing the dock.

I have loaded many different Operating systems and while I can get ATT / Cricket to work well ,I have had no luck what so ever getting  any OS to recognize the T-mobile Sim. Tried loading atinout, modem manger and other software to no avail.  I am trying to avoid using the modem update software since I don't want to risk trashing the modem. Heck, flashing my Bio makes me nervous.  Has anyone found a way around my problem?

The wiki seems unclear to me. Wiki - Pogo Pins [edit: link to an old version of the wiki page before changes that were made as a result of this thread. See also the old diagram image ]

There's an image describing the pinout, and there's a breakout board design which seems to match.

Quote:The VBUS pin is powered by USB and is 5V at up to 500mA. The second power pin is VBAT, which connects to the battery voltage.

1. Is that a good read? Did I get it wrong?
   
2. Did I get the pinout right? Why are PIN1 and PIN2 in the middle?
   
3. Does USB-5V/PIN5/VBUS provide a 5V output up to 500 mA?
   
4. Is DCIN/PIN1/VBAT a 5V input for powering the device and charging the battery?
   
5. What happens if you connect a 5V input to DCIN/PIN1/VBAT and to the USB-C connector at the same time? Would that short together two power sources?
   
6. "VBAT, which connects to the battery voltage" would make me think that pogo PIN1 basically connects to the positive battery terminal VBAT. Not true though, right?
   

Hi everyone!

KWIN often crash on my PBP in ramdom place (control pannel, Dolphin when copying files and folders, etc.)

More often when using the non-default theme.

I am using Manjora with fr_CA-URF8 locales. (French - Canada).

What sould I look at to help find the cause of this?

Manjaro on XFCE seems more stable but I didn't test it as much as KDE/Plasma.

Thanks.

Hi all,

I have a Manjaro convergence edition of the Pinephone (3/32Gb), I was wondering if someone wants to swap it for a Bravehearth with the original mainboard (2/16Gb). I need all what's included in the original box, phone, cable, pamphlet and of course the box itself. So, if you have a Bravehearth in good conditions, you are willing to replace the motherboard but you've missed out the promotion, this is your chance to do so at almost zero cost (only the shipment of your unit to me, I will pay for my shipment to you).

I'm located in Australia, I can accept it in Italy or here. please PM if interested.

Thanks

Greetings,

I've recently acquired a second-hand PBP. I'm quite impressed with the construction of this laptop, and eager to make it into a useful machine. I've also been looking for an excuse to try a BSD system. Thus, these two developments meet in some problems I've had with the PBP.

So the PineBook Pro came with the default Manjaro ARM OS. This booted without any trouble and was usable. I then went and flashed a NetBSD Current image for the PineBook Pro onto a microSD card. I used `dd` on a Void Linux desktop to do this. I was hoping to eventually flash NetBSD from the microSD onto the internal SSD.

However, when I inserted the SD card into the PineBook, it ignored the microSD card and just went ahead to boot Manjaro. This happened even after a reboot. Then I disassembled it and disabled the internal SSD using the switch. While leaving the microSD card inserted, I powered the PBP on again. However, this time the screen remained black and there was no activity from any of the power lights. I don't think I've bricked it, but I'm not sure what to do next.

I've been looking through the forums, reddit, the wiki. But I'd like clarity from anyone who has successfully installed NetBSD: Did I follow the correct procedure for installing NetBSD? Is it simply a case of flashing the microSD and then switching on the PBP, and that'll present me with a ready-installed NetBSD or an installer?

Also, I'd appreciate any troubleshooting tips. If that's more appropriately asked in the hardware section, I'll begin another thread there.

Regards,
R.T.G.

I just found out that I accidentally used up my mobile data by updating my Manjaro Phosh Pinephone while connected to a wifi network. Looking at the routing tables it seems the wifi connection (via wlan0) would be preferred when available since it has lower metric values than the mobile data connection (via wwan0). This was not the case though. Looking around I came across this thread which has some contradictory info on whether the mobile data connection might be used when IPv6 is not available on the wifi. This led me to disable IPv6 on my Pinephone and everything worked as expected afterwards (no more use of mobile data when connected to wifi). So it seems that it actually is a problem when IPv6 is not available. My phone gets an IPv6 address from wifi network I'm connected to, but IPv6 is disabled on the router, so connection attempts must fail.
I would like to file a bug report for this or at least put a warning about this on the wiki since it might easily become a mysterious problem for Pinephone users. But I can't login to the wiki with my forum credentials and I have no idea where to file a bug report for this. Does anyone know where would be the right place for that or if this is already a known problem that maybe even is already being worked on?

I want to to use the H64 B as a desktop...surfing the web and e-mail, etc.

I want to try Trisquel Mini ( 1.2 GB)  with at least 64 GB eMMC. I "Think" it should work as Ubutu supposedly works, and Trisquel is the more secure version of Ubuntu...

Any advice?

Thanks!
