I have now spent a lot of time trying to find an image where incoming and outgoing phone calls do work with decent sound quality.
I am either too dumb or it must be kind of a lottery to find such images.
Can somebody post here URLs of downloadable images where phoning works as on a commercial phone?
Many thanks!

It may not be the right place but it seems the closest one since manjaro and arch share a lot. Here is my question : can we hope some kind of official support of arch for the pinephone (and pinetab and pinebooks) ? I mean, it would be great to know where to find information and which repo to use and would confort users (like me) that these supports will last.
PS : thanks a lot to all those arch developpers (i'm currently using your work on a pinebook and a pinephone, great job !)

| PineTab as SketchPad |

Hey folks,
im trying to use the pinetab as a sketchpad.
I'm running arch linux.
Gimp and krita both work, but there is some lag between touch and the resulting line..
Now i wonder how to decrease the lag. Would a realtime (fully preemptible) kernel help?
I have built patched kernels myself in the past but am unsure how to build one for the PineTab.
does anyone have any ideas on this?
Maybe alternative approaches i could try?

| Setting up QT for compiling on my desktop |

Hi:
I was curious if anyone could point me towards where I could find information regarding
how to set up my desktop for cross compiling for the Pine Phone.
More specifically, how I could best set QT Creator up so that I can take an existing app that
I have and compile it and get it out into the community?
I have tried using synaptic to download all of the ARM 64/Arm 8 related stuff, but it's a little confusing what goes where. Ideally, I would like to have a directory somewhere with all the ARM specific stuff in it...

| PBP disappointment |

Hi everyone!
Two days ago I got my loooong awaited PBP machine.
Turned it on, nothing happened. Put it away and did some reading about it. Then tried the second time and it started working. Filled in all the username/password/location, etc. things. Shut it down. Started up and of course asked me for the username and password. The username and password words are displayed on the lines of the boxes. Not in the boxes or outside of the boxes where the username and password supposed to be typed. To make the long story short, I tried every combination of usernames and passwords and obviously I can't go any further.
Downloaded the Manjaro file, etched it on a 32G SD card.
Opened the back of the computer, switched the switch to disable the emmc and plugged in the SD card.
Nothing happened.
I took out the emmc module and tried to boot it up from the SD card; nothing.
I have the usb to emmc module from Pine.
WHY is not available FROM PINE, the SAME file (Manjaro), they install on the emmc in the computer, when they make the computer ready to ship, so anybody could REPROGRAM the emmc if necessary, like I need to do it now?
At least that is my conclusion, to start all over.
So far, the US$199.00 computer cost almost $400.00 Canadian coins. I could of got FOUR Raspberry Pi for that price and I never had any series problem with the Pi, like I have with the PBP.
"High hopes"!
That is what I had when I first heard about the Pine book about two years ago. It was a long wait and now "splash". Great disappointment. Not even heavy enough to use it for boat anchor.

If anybody can help, please do so and thank you.
Needless to say, I am a beginner in the linux world. I looked and I couldn't find any file to copy into the emmc module. Is it available?
There are people who know their "stuff" but can't explain and unable to teach what they know to others and there are those who are great (I'll be nice), "explainers" but don't really know their "stuff". Both groups are useless to newbies.

| Elementary OS download |

Hey, two questions really...
1. Is there anywhere other than Elementary itself to download the Elementary Pinebook Pro version? Of course doing it this way I'd need to get the SHA signature to make sure its safe... but... Elementary makes you donate $10 per month in order to download the not-stable release versions. I may do this, so my next question:
2. Does anyone use Elementary OS on Pinebook Pro? Manjaro is awesome and I love it - but I do prefer a Ubuntu build. I like Armbian, but I really am just trying all of them out - and I couldn't get regular Ubuntu to unpack yet... must be some issue with my archiver. :/ So, I wanna try Elementary - Before I pay them, tho, as I really just wanted to try it out -- Does anyone use it and could tell me if its worth it to pay for?
Manjaro is really nice - and since its supported its hard to want to go anywhere else, but.... I still want to try.

Hello,
I can't navigate when I open a file in nano because the on screen keyboard missing up and down arrows in mobian phosh flavor.
I tried several other flavors and I noticed that most of them have this feature.
Is it possible to install a keyboard with navigation arrows?
Thanks.
