  Sticker request / the PineX-"trademark"
Posted by: fxk8y - 10-17-2020, 01:27 AM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

Hello there,

I appreciate the general style of the mostly-unbranded Pine64 products and many users on twitter like that too.
But as I love the Pine devices very much(PBP, PP and PT collected so far) I would like to show this off to everyone.

So I would like to see some stickers in the store, in matching sizes for the devices. Like half the width of the phone and half the height of the PBP screen?
Just want to stick a big pine cone onte them ^^

(I also looked at this thread but didn't want to dig it up. Also a full skin is not what I want, because I tend to cover my notebook in stickers. Ok would spare the pine cone though)

Best regards,
fxkk8y

edit: I just discovered that there are third-party(?) stickers on redbubble, but as in the case with the PP tpu protector which contains a donation fee, I would buy them at a higher price and support you or your donation projects.

  Random but persistent imperfections
Posted by: HLing - 10-16-2020, 04:45 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (6)

I have been using my UBPort CE Pine Phone on Mobian as my daily driver since mid September. I'm with T-mobile in the US. My Pine Phone always boots up to full bars, 4G.  While the data for getting online still needs rebooting from time to time, I've not have to use my back up phone for a while. I am forever amazed at the Mobian team for keeping up the good work. I have learned a few things, like never rebooting with the phone charging cable plugged in, or never covering/obscuring the top portion of the phone while not on the phone, or always making sure data is working before doing the update/upgrade....Happy to be able to learn from my mistakes.

On my end, I feel not too well-versed in how to customize my phone.  For some reason, none of the Software Store apps work. I mean, they would install, but would not start up. (and then Software Store will complain that such and such cannot be used).  Then I tried to get Skype to work, and I ventured off and installed Snapd. I was able to download skype classic.  Then while installing, it said that the software is not for arm64 structure. I'm confused as far as what exactly I can use. Am I wrong in assuming that something .deb is compatible with the Pine phone? Is there a workaround I need to learn?

Also, is it possible to go back to Camera until Megapixel works? With Camera I had decent picture quality, AND i could do video.  Now I cannot do video at all.  At times it's necessary to have a video camera in the phone. 

Switching between headphone (wired) and regular phone didn't seem possible without rebooting in between, which is not ideal , as it potentially interrupts a phone call.  Is there something I can do about that?


  Website logins on Firefox ESR
Posted by: MarkF - 10-16-2020, 04:00 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hi All,

Wonder whether anyone can help with this.  I have Mobian installed on my Pinephone 3GB/32GB, and I've noticed a peculiarity with Firefox ESR when I log in to the Guardian website.  It seems to lose my login and password as I progress further into the site, and specifically, if I try to look at the comments to an article, I'm asked to log in again.  But when I do, entering my login id and password, it has no effect - it still keeps asking me to login.  And then, if I come back up to the first page of the site, it's restored my login.

The other browser, Web, doesn't have this problem and everything works fine, albeit very slowly.

Any observations/help welcome.

Thanks, Mark


Photo Remove activity manager bar on right side of screen - plasma kde
Posted by: motezart - 10-16-2020, 03:16 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

There is a black transparent bar on the side of the screen that I cannot figure out how to close. It is transparent and is related to the activity manager. I do not want this to stay open since I can't work with this over top of stuff.

How can I close this? The icons on it have no affect on anything.



PS - I can I  use the highlighter in Okular? I wanted to mark the area in question of my image but could not figure out how. The highlighter was added to the annotation tools.    


  mhwd-kernel: command not found

I am trying install virtual box https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php/Virtu...on_Manjaro

The first line says to check the kernel type but entering the above command throws an error. How can I debug this? 

It's a  new in Fall 2020 PBP with the default manjaro but I don't know how to check the exact specs yet Sad


  Track17 Shipping Status
Posted by: NeutralGrey - 10-16-2020, 10:08 AM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (2)

I recently ordered a few accessories for my pinephone.  All has been going well until the most recent order status of "airlines start shipping" this is after the status update of it arriving at the destination airport so I'm starting to worry that it is about to be sent back to china Sad .
The order is here:
https://t.17track.net/en#nums=LZ355128101CN

 Is there any way for me to check in more detail what is happening with the shipment?

  Pinebook Pro has become dead, no lights
Posted by: robgriff444 - 10-16-2020, 02:13 AM - Forum: General - Replies (4)

Hi people

I've had a PBP working successfully for a month or so. But now it's dead.

It's sat in an inmoving position, connected to the mains with the barrel charger which I switch on from time to time to top up the battery. It's mostly used for flashing to my pinephone so it's not been used heavily, I also have tried a few OS's so it has been booting from multiple SD cards and the emmc (from original Manjaro) successfully.

Yesterday I flashed opensuse to the emmc (booted and rebooted a few times) and decided it wasn't for me so I flashed Manjaro again but after I tried to reboot it crashed so I had to force shutdown with 10s hold on power button. After that it failed to start up (no lights on front but charger is lit red when plugged in).

After leaving it for an hour or so it started, but after a reboot it went back to dead. And next day that's how it still is.

As it's not been moving it's unlikely to be a loose cable inside so I hesitate to take the back cover off.

Are there any known issues that may help me? Could repeated plugging of mains/SD/USB cause this?

Considering all the issues with Braveheart, would really love to see something updated that is available, and upgrade my own BH..
