  Yoyo interefering with apt upgrade
Posted by: Hiraghm - 10-10-2020, 06:45 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

The past several times I've tried to do a sudo apt upgrade, I get an error about "yoyo", some python3 package that is apparently installed in two places or some such.
It errors out the upgrade.
I tried "sudo apt upgrade --fix-broken install"... it errored out the same way.

what is "yoyo", and why is it breaking my upgrade?


  Pinetime Plus?
Posted by: KNERD - 10-10-2020, 06:26 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - Replies (20)

The pine time is really great for only $25 USD, but still lacking something I was hoping for: a hidden camera

There are times people may need a hidden camera.

I saw this device on Amazon for only $89 USD with a 1080p hidden camera, and other neat features like heart monitor, Oxygen Monitor, and Fitness Tracking.

It is four times the price of a Pinetime, but I would certainly get a Pinetime with a hidden camera.

  Pinetime BLE oddness?
Posted by: pjsf - 10-10-2020, 05:08 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - Replies (2)

Just got my pinetime with infinitime and trying to update firmware to the latest version. I've loaded nrf connect onto my only (fairly up to date) android device but it can't see the pine time, neither in nrf connect or the devices bluetooth settings, there are plenty of other devices visible but none match the  pinetime's mac address. I can see and pair with the pinetime from my linux desktop, my PBP and my pinephone, but apparently there's no way of accessing the services from free software. Is there any type of characteristic of android device I need to use (the one I'm using is a very recent android 'go'). Does anyone know if an original Pinebook running android 7 (I think) would work?


  pinephone won't boot after dd flash try
Posted by: maybl8 - 10-10-2020, 01:35 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (10)

I thought I followed the instructions correctly and attempted to flash the emmc with an image and after I thought it was finished and I tried to start the phone it fails to start. I don't get a green light or anything.
What can I do?


  noob with non booting rock64 4g
Posted by: john72carter - 10-10-2020, 01:27 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (6)

Hi

ive read other posts and im trying to establish if my board has a HW issue.
ive flashed some raspberry pi (32 bit) previously so i believe im flashing my sd card ok.
i gave a green led on longside the power connector
i have a solid red and a while led on by the gpio pins.
the activity led on the nic port (on the usb side of the port) is solid amber regardless of cable in or out
the other nic led is always off.
the power button longside the white led turns all but the green led off.
there is no hdmi output .


what do i do next to determine if its a brick or not


  Did the pinephone 1.2a board undergo certifications?

Or was certification of the 1.2 boards "good enough"?


  Support is not replying to my ticket
Posted by: gabrielfin - 10-10-2020, 11:10 AM - Forum: General - Replies (17)

My package was (supposedly) sent on the 28th of February. I knew there could be delays because of COVID. But 3 months passed (June) and the tracking status still showed as "Departed", so I started to get worried.

I contacted support to get a status update on the package. They said they would check and get back to me, but they never did. So I contacted them again twice, both times they replied they were waiting for feedback from the post company (Asendia) and they would get back to me, but they never did.

I contacted them a fourth time 3 weeks ago demanding some sort of response. It's unacceptable that a post company takes more than 3 months to report the status of a package. I got no reply. I wrote again 1 week ago. Still got no reply.

I've been waiting 7 months for this package... What's going on? Are they ghosting me? Did somebody lose my package and no one wants to take responsibility?

In case it helps, the ticket number is #4476


  Pinephone as daily driver
Posted by: lcayer1 - 10-10-2020, 11:06 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (15)

What OS do you use as a daily driver and what apps do you have that make it a daily driver.

THanks


Question Liberating PINE64.org's JavaScript
Posted by: User 18618 - 10-10-2020, 08:25 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

Would PINE64 consider choosing a free software licence (such as the GNU Affero General Public License) for scripts employed on their website?

Just a thought Smile

  Taming the Caps Lock key
Posted by: ab1jx - 10-10-2020, 12:18 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Somewhere, maybe it was a DOS TSR, I've seen little utility programs that would do things like beep on every keypress while the caps lock key was active.  Or deactivate it after a certain time or number of keypresses.  Not sure how to do that in Linux.

I don't use it often intentionally but it's a lazy way to type macros.  Mostly it's on when I don't want it.

Using my PBP more these days, doing audio recordings with it.  And I just went through a 2 day power outage and the PBP was the only thing that still had a couple hours of battery left.  As winter sets in I'll spend more time with it in my recliner.

-----------

I suppose the Linux equivalent of a TSR would be a kernel module.
