I'm on the newest kernel/update and had my phone charging earlier today and just recently it stopped charging. Anyone else have this happen? I didn't change any packages or anything like that. I tested with chargers with a different phone and they both worked and I booted into a different OS on the PinePhone and it worked there so that leads me to believe that Sailfish is the issue.

I need to talk to an RS-485 buss

I purchased a RS485 CAN HAT for Raspberry Pi 4B/3B+/3B/2B/B+/A+/Zero/Zero W/WH,Allow Long-Distance Communication via RS485/CAN Function Onboard CAN Controller MCP2515 via SPI Interface Transceiver SN65HVD230

When I install the header my rock won’t boot 

Armbian 20.08.17 Buster with Linux 4.4.213-rockchip64

Any ideas?

Hi, I want to use an USB3 to Ethernet adapter for my Rock64 (Armbian 20.08.16 Bionic with Linux 5.8.16-rockchip64). Is there some suggested adapter or I can choose any?

I am considering upgrading my Pinebook Pro with NVMe memory (at the moment it's using the stock emmc module). I am wondering what difference would it make on the Pinebook Pro for common, real world use-cases, and if it's worth it. Of course, boot times and moving/copying files would be noticeably faster, and browsing the internet would probably not be affected, but what about general responsiveness and other common tasks, such as:

• Starting/using desktop applications
  
• Compiling from sources
  
• Installing packages
  
• Playing "heavy" 3D games (my testbench is Supertuxkart)
  

Just finished cleaning up / redoing my bash script for downloading mms messages. It appears that others have already published their programs/scripts for working with MMS and some are now working on better implementations. Thought I would share mine anyway in case it helps somehow.

Script:
https://gitlab.com/antiX-Dave/mms-downlo...s-download

It will need / should have installed curl, recoverjpeg, libnotify-bin, sox
apt install curl recoverjpeg libnotify-bin sox

You will need to modify the variables in the script at least to show your service providers mms proxy and mms proxy port

I also have this running on a cron job every 5 minutes.
For this you also need to install cron
apt install --no-install-recommends cron


A couple others I have noticed working on mms when looking where to post this

Hello,



I've got a DVB-S2 board from a mecool KII pro box and I'm trying to connect it to the rock64 board. I found a diagram in the Libreelec forum for connecting the dvb board to an Odroid N2 and I have tried to guess mecool pin 24 position, instead of going to 11 (NC), I've connexcted to 7 since both say CLK









Do you guys think that the connections are correct? Perhaps Mecool number 24 ought to go into Rock64 number 15?



At the moment the dvb board is not being detected. I'm trying to find  driver for the tuner (AVL6862) I've tried compiling some gits from Libreelec devs but they fail to compile. The same for LinuxTV git. Is there any hope of getting working drivers for this tuner and succeed with my setup?



Many thanks for your help

After a recent update, the virtual keyboard stopped working on my Mobian Pinephone.

SSH is still working so I can log in from my Linux laptop and continue to do updates hoping one of them will fix the problem but this has been going on for a number of days now.

Is there a way while logged in via SSH that I can reset the virtual keyboard?

Hi,
I just got my pinephone today
but it does not start

(I already removed the plastic between the pins and the battery)

when I press the power button it turn the red light on, then the display get some backlight (but still everything black), and after a 1 or 2 seconds it turn off

and if a press the power button for like 10 seconds, the display does not get any backlight but the red led light gets turned on, and I can turn it off if I press a few seconds the power button again

does anyone knows what happened to my pinephone??

thank you

Hi everyone,

I am looking for some troubleshooting tips.  I just installed the new 3GB/32GB mainboard and have installed the new JumpDrive 0.6 image.

When I try to power it up I get no response at all.   No backlight, no led, nothing.  If I plug it into the computer I do get a unknown usb device but thats all.

I have reinstalled the original board and it works fine.

Looking for any tips or troubleshooting advice.


Thanks,

Walt

Hi All!

I tried to install packages using "sudo apk add xxx" or simply to check the upgrades via "sudo apk upgrade". Nothing really works...
All I get is
ERROR: unable to select packages:
cmd: convert (virtual):

required by: megapixels ...

What do I do wrong?

Thank you!
