has anyone successfully used Wi-Fi calling?

I know, that tracfone says Wi-Fi calling, but I have not been able to  successfully use it


  VoLTE / Sprint
Posted by: fm'latghor - 10-11-2020, 08:45 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (3)

To my knowledge VoLTE works for some carriers with the pinephone, but no one's been able to get Sprint to work with VoLTE. I've also been told that Sprint has started to only allow whitelisted devices. Is there any chance that Sprint will ever work with the pinephone?


  Using different SoC for products?
Posted by: Theguyuk - 10-11-2020, 03:00 AM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

Hello 

Has Pine64 considered supporting more SoC additional to Allwinner and Rockchip?  I understand you support open software and hardware.

Would consider Amlogic S905Y2, S905X3,, S922X SoC and making Pinephone, Pineebook development boards based on Amlogic, so software could be worked on?

  Redshift on Manjaro
Posted by: TomWis97 - 10-11-2020, 02:47 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Hello,

Since I use my Pinebook Pro regularly at night, I'd really like a blue light filter. Sadly, I can't get Redshift to work:

Code:
$ redshift -O 2700
Using method `randr'.

I did some research and found this issue, suggesting to use the experimental OpenGL driver. So I installed mesa-git (which replaced the mesa package). That didn't work, presumably because that issue was for the RPi.

Also, I tried enabling OpenGL ES 3.0 support as documented on the wiki, which didn't work either.

So, my question is: How do I get redshift (or another blue light filter) to work on the Pinebook Pro with X.org?


  Replacement for video cable (EDP to LCD/camera)?
Posted by: pnwkayaker - 10-10-2020, 11:24 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hello,

We just got a hold of a Pinebook Pro that suffered some hardware issues, and I'm trying to repair it; the cable that had issues is the video cable from the main motherboard to the LCD (I believe it's called EDP to LCD cable) and needs to be replaced (cable had a short and melted part of plastic panel).

We spent lot of time going over the schematics and over cables available in AliExpress with no luck - does anybody know that exact cable/part number that the Pinebook Pro is using?  We found a couple that were close, but want to be sure of the exact part nr (or at least a close equivalent) before ordering a replacement.


  Left-handed feature
Posted by: caligari - 10-10-2020, 08:06 PM - Forum: Development Discussion on PineTime - Replies (1)

Male and female straps provided with Pinetime can be put on up or down side of watch case. It is interesting that Pinetime is aware of left-handed people exist, allowing them to wear the watch on the right hand and with the push button fairly accesible.

Firmware developers... What about pinetime display up-down orientation?

I suggest an interface option to select "Wear on right/left" causing display to rotate 180º.

Pinetime rivals do that  Wink

Reading the ST7789 datasheet (page 124), MADCTL register could manage this feature ("Normal" and "X-mirror + Y-mirror"):

  M.2 SSD Upgrade
Posted by: barray - 10-10-2020, 07:06 PM - Forum: PineTab Hardware - Replies (13)

Has anybody thrown an M.2 SSD in yet? I've just purchased one to try out, hoping it works out of the box. I intend to flash it by just dd'ing a downloaded image to it whilst boot from the SD card.

Also I saw some people were having trouble getting the back off and one person broke the digitizer, any instructions on how to do this safely?


  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?
