I have my UBPorts CE on Verizon. I am on the dev channel. I can send mms, but not receive it. I can not make calls, but I can pick them up (although I can not hear the  other person and they cannot hear me) Cellular data also doesn't work. I have tried manually entering APN data, but I can only do it for internet, if I try to select MMS and Internet and put in the mmsc, it switches back to internet after I save. This has no impact on anything working. I have heard that calling and texting work fine in the new releases, but I still have nothing

Since Mobian doesn't boot since the last update (I saw the notice here in the Mobian forum too late - not a big problem), I thought I should give Plasma a try, so I installed Manjaro Plasma 2020-11-04.

However the screen starts to fade out after just a few seconds which I find very annoying. I also cannot find any screen/power settings in the Settings app.

Anyone know how to set the screen timeout in Plasma?

A few days ago I got the NVME adapter for my pbp. I bought an Intel 660p SSD for it, since it was marked as supported on the wiki. After install, it didn't show up in lspci or lsblk.
the output of dmesg | grep pci returns these errors:


[    2.953763] rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: no vpcie12v regulator found
[    3.112162] ehci-pci: EHCI PCI platform driver
[    3.174161] ohci-pci: OHCI PCI platform driver

[    4.318696] rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: PCIe link training gen1 timeout!
[    4.320361] rockchip-pcie: probe of f8000000.pcie failed with error -110


I tried updating U-boot on the SPI chip as well as on the SD card, I've tried Debian, Manjaro, Fedora, it's all the same.

I then turned to a friend who also owns a PBP and had them run lspci and dmesg | grep pci and their own pbp returned the same error (their pbp is a first-run preorder and I bought mine a year later.). Is this a hardware issue or is there something I'm missing in the NVME installation that allows this board to initialize it's PCIe properly?

Hello,
Not sure if this should be posted here, bc its not a Manjaro issue. It's a antenna issue with my Manjaro edition phone I just received. I figured I'd post here and see if anyone else is having this issue. The issue is, the phone isn't giving me any bars what so ever. The phone reads I have a SIM card in it, but no signal. I put the same SIM in a PMOS edition phone and 4 bars. Just checking to see if I one the only one that got a defected phone or if there are others.
Also, if any of you out there knows if there is a fix for this please please please let me know. I really don't want to go through the entire exchange process and waiting another 4 weeks for another phone, but if that's what it takes then so be it.
Thanks !!

Hello,
I just received my Manjaro Edition and I can't make any calls, the phone isn't giving me cellular connection. The phone reads and sees I have a SIM card in but absolutely no bars what so ever ( I'm using T-Mobile US ).
It's a hardware issue with the phone. I say this bc the same SIM card works perfectly fine in a PMOS edition with 4 bars.
So, I assume I can return the phone for a new one. I writing this to see what to expect from Pine64 on this issue, and if anyone else has had to deal with going through the return process.
This is what's upsetting. I'm cool as can be with all the devs putting in all their free time on this and working out bugs, but what I'm not cool with is Pine64 who's been building these phone for months now, with what I think is the same hardware from the beginning and they seem to drop the ball on that. To me if anything kills the PinePhone it will be mistakes like these that fall directly on Pine64's back.
I just emailed them so we will see their response and I will keep anyone who is interested post.

Because of financial difficulties since the new french lockdown, i need to sell my pinephone.
It's in perfect state, as new.
I can send photo if needed.
Complete box.
I think i can ship only to EU.
Make offer.

EDIT: it's the Convergence Edition with 3Gb, the USB hub and HDMI output.

EDIT2: SOLD!

Hello, I've been trying to log into my gmail account with chromium and google is not allowing me to enter password after typing account name. I am using the debian os with mate desktop and and pretty happy with it other than being unable to use chromium. Anyone have a solution? Seems to be a security issue. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or help.

These are just notes. If you have any info PM me and I'll edit this and try to keep the thread to a single post.

Hi there!

I already know about the hardware revisions that can be found here, but how noticeable are these changes from a users perspective?

Do you notice the battery lasting longer?
Is the phone more stable?
Can you "feel" the extra ram?

Objective and subjective experiences are all welcome 

Hello everyone,

As we're preparing a major transition to 5.9 kernel (and a couple other things under the hood), some packages incompatible with the current 5.8 kernel will be uploaded in the coming days.

It is recommended that you don't update your system for a few days and backup your personal data. You might even have to reflash a new image if the upgrade goes wrong (which is quite likely to happen).

Please note a u-boot upgrade will be part of the transition and will require manual action to install the new bootloader (see wiki).

Thanks for your understanding, hopefully this will be our last breaking change.
