This is what we’ve been waiting for long time for any RK3399 board, a fully desktop Linux OS with mainline kernel, HW acceleration, Panfrost graphics and Kodi/MPV with HW support specially if you’re not a Linux expert, a ready-made friendly image that works out of the box for the newbie and enthusiast SBC user, it runs fast too, even from uSD: - Currently on 5.8.17 kernel
- MPV built to support Mali T860 GPU
- Firefox fully optimized to support Panfrost HW acceleration.
- Built-in several useful software including, Kodi, USBimager, Retropie, Myandroid, Discord, Wine Desktop, Midnight commander, Remmina, Retroemulation(Dosbox, lutris, mupen64plus, ResidualVM, SNES9x, ScummVM, Redream, ZSNES), etc.
- Armbian Focal Mate based
- Boots from uSD, eMMC and NVMe
- Many visual perks
- OpenGL games included for testing(Panfrost OpenGL 2.1 only)
- BOX86 support for Mali T860 GPU
- lightDM display manager
- KODI has been rebuilt from Scratch to support Mali T860 GPU
IMHO, This is the only way to get new users and Raspberry Pi users as well to venture into RK3399 boards. RockPi4C is recommended because it offers the most features at the lowest price. RockPro64 4Gb board is also recommended. RockPro64 support was added to latest Armbian-Reforged V1.0
Password: 123456
Instructions:
After flashing image with Etcher
- edit /boot/armbianEnv.txt
- replace the dtb name with rk3399-pinebook-pro.dtb or whatever RK3399 board you have, check dtb folder to know the exact name you need to type. by default we use Rockpi4C dtb
- After booting for the first time, resize partition on uSD or eMMC with included gnome-disks utility.
Many Thanks to Salva for his efforts by taking such initiative to promote all RK3399 boards with an Universal OS. @Ptitseb for his BOX86 contribution.

I reset the password to a word using sudo password and I used a word, not numbers. Now when I log into my phone, I see the number pad to enter the password but I just realized that the number pad doesn't have any letters on it. Is there a picture that shows where the letters would be? I tried looking at my Samsung phone but I still get a password Login error.

Hi,
i want to substitute my current AP with a RockPro64, a quadport Intel I350-T4 PCIe card and the 1x1 Dual Band Wifi Module. It should run the current OpenWRT version.
- Is this setup/configuration stable or will it encounter the PCIe controller hardware error handling bug?
- Does the official OpenWRT release run out of the box with this setup or do i have to compile it by my self?
- Does the quadport card fit into the NAS case?
Many thanks in advance for your replies.
Sincerly

Calendar and syncthing |
|

I'd like to be able to (automatically) share my calendar using syncthing but unsurprisingly this isn't going well by just syncing the "calendar.ics" file since this resumes in file conflicts.
Now the question: is there already a solution for that?
If not:
has anyone a good overview over software(libraries) for working with .ics files?
I thought if I automatically (by cron job or on creation) write new events into a separate file
which I than sync instead of calendar.ics and get the evolution calendar server (which the calendar app seams to rely on) automatically import events of the synced file
than this would be find. Is anyone out there who knows more about all all that puzzle parts and is willing to help?
Thanks.

I'm using the mrfixit stretch on the eMMC that it was shipped with (in January). Twice today I picked it up and it had shut down and rebooted. Once I was typing something and it happened so I got to see it. It froze for a couple seconds then rebooted. I have it set to boot to a command line so if I leave it in X and come back to a command line something happened.
Using the original power supply but the battery is still in it and working, shouldn't be that. It seems to always reboot and come back up, it doesn't turn off.

PinePhone power issues |

I have a UBports Edition, and the phone is having issues staying powered on. It'll run 5-60min then hard power off (on battery or cord or battery+cord). I have to remove from power (including battery) wait 5-15 min "rest period" then usually it'll only turn back on when power plug is inserted without battery. I'm suspecting something with power or heat, modem is a bit warm, would not call it hot. Has ran fine up until ~3 weeks ago (owned since April?).
I can't keep in on long enough to troubleshoot... I'm working on making a SD card image, but have experienced this issue with UBports and Manjaro.
Anyone experiencing? Anyone have suggestions?

| Screen touch issue |

So even though I didn't really play much with the Braveheart model, I decided to get the upgraded board. After the installation I started noticing that the left side of the screen acts a bit strange to touch events. I can't recall having this issue prior to the board swap but now it is the same for both the old and the new board.
I have been running Manjaro and first noticed that something was a miss when I could not tab the leftmost keys on the virtual keyboard. However, events where still detected but for the key to the right. I'm not sure what to think as the rest of the screen are accurately detected so it doesn't seem like a calibration issue?
I have tried reseating the cables and also tried postmarketOS where the issue was reproducible. This of course will not rule out a software issue but then I would believe that I would be more widely reported?
Have anyone experienced the same or have any ideas to how to fix it?

| Flash firmware - Bloody beginner tutorial needed |

Hi there,
I purchased a set with three PineTimes. They're really cool devices. Since I'm a bloody beginner, they actually do nothing more but show the time. I managed to set the time with "nRF Connect" app on an Android phone.
The november update now says "PineTime firmware can now be upgraded via Gadgetbridge!"
Would it be possible, to provide a step by step tutorial for people who are not deep into that? Or is there already one, someone could point me to?
Thanks!!!
