  voice calls and accesspoints
Posted by: joe@adelaide - 09-22-2020, 10:08 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Are voice calls independent of APN settings and access points?


  4G voice calls stopped working
Posted by: joe@adelaide - 09-22-2020, 09:48 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

I have installed mobian on an sd card.  I was able to get voice calls to work.  Then I experiment with setting up access points using various apn settings for my carrier. I managed to get mobile data to work.  However, I discovered that I could not longer receive or place phone calls.  I am totally baffled and out of my depth.  I haven't included any real configuration information because I'm not sure what is relevant.


  Keyboard types random characters
Posted by: erock22 - 09-22-2020, 09:35 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (10)

After receiving a Pinebook Pro in June that had QA issues, I opened a support ticket. It took a month for them to start troubleshooting with me. Then we did some very poor troubleshooting for a month. They issued a RMA and I paid for return shipping. I waited another month and now they have shipped me a replacement. It does not seem like a new unit. The box was slightly damaged and the screen and touchpad did not have the protective plastic film. While that is annoying because I paid for a new laptop, it has a bigger issue.

The real problem now is that the keyboard does not function properly. I can’t select ANSI or ISO keyboard. If I touch the right random key it will go to the next screen. When I try to enter a user name the keyboard just outputs random characters. It is unusable.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a solution? Or was I lucky enough to receive a second lemon?

I'm trying to install vscode. Google and vscode official site directs me here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visua...o-code-bin

I run makepkg -si and I get the above error once I've downloaded the repo and switched to the folder with bin. How can I install vscode? I have the default manjaro.


  No Sound After Reboots
Posted by: LMalilil - 09-22-2020, 06:32 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Everytime I reboot my phone I have to manually go into the sound settings and switch the output sound setting from Default to Phone and then back to Default or my speakers don’t work. Anyone have a fix for this? Began happening after using headphones to listen to podcasts


  Pinetab day 5
Posted by: mindwave - 09-22-2020, 05:10 PM - Forum: PineTab Software - No Replies

OK I like Mobian more than I thought I would, deslike UB as much as I knew I would. Nothing personal just have never taken to buntu period, and I have tried every distro plus.

However the Manjaro that came labled newscreen2 you can see will be a winner!

So next task, I use tablets for several things on a regular basis and one of those is an e reader. I use Moonreader on my android devices and Clibre ob my lonux

havent tried calibre on majaro arm, just becase i dont expect it to work.

Does anyone know of a solid Arm-linux e-reader?

So far the PTab has lived up to everything I thought it would be and then some.

Might even start to sing me back towarsd the Pinephone as an alternate.

Any and all ideas welcome!

  apt-get command not found
Posted by: motezart - 09-22-2020, 02:57 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (11)

Hi,

I'm on my brand new pine book pro with the default OS. In the wiki the instructions in says to update the firmware with commands using apt-get https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pinebook_Pro#Keyboard

I get apt-get command not found. Since I'm following the wiki I assume these are accurate instruction, although it does say this is for 2019 models. How can I fix this?


  Cannot find a method of flashing to EMMC that works
Posted by: MarkF - 09-22-2020, 02:33 PM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (4)

Hi All,

I've just received my Pinephone Convergence Edition (3GB/32GB) running PostmarketOS.  I'd really like to install Mobian on EMMC.  If I flash Mobian to MicroSD, the phone will boot it and it runs quite happily.

The problem comes if I want to flash Mobian to EMMC.  I tried flashing JumpDrive to MicroSD, but if I try to boot the phone with that MicroSD inserted, nothing happens.  And I mean literally nothing - the phone won't even switch on.  I tried the flash with Etcher and again using dd, with the same result for both.

I then tried the second method from the Wiki - copy (not flash) the Mobian img file to MicroSD, insert the MicroSD, boot the phone and should see an option to flash the img file to EMMC.  But I don't - sometimes PMOS just boots as normal, with no such option being presented, and other times the phone refuses to boot at all - again it won't even switch on.

I'd really rather not do a dd directly from a mounted partition on the MicroSD - does anyone have any idea why neither JumpDrive nor the other method is working, and what I can do about it?

Many thanks,

Mark

Hello,

While attempint to install a new OS on my Pinebook Pro, I've discovered that I'm unable to remove the micro SD card from the slot, even with tweezers there's not enough grip.  Has anyone ran into the same issue?

Be aware, these tests are being executed using an out-of-box testing methodology. All tests are preformed with minimal interaction/setup of devices outside of: OS imaging/updating,  SIM installation, Wifi Configuration,  and Power Cycling the devices.

Results: mobian/2020-09-22-TMobile.html


Conclusion: OS is not Ready for pinephone to be daily driver.


Notes: Sorry for the long time in between posts guys. Been a busy couple of weeks. Firefox took over 30 seconds to load this time. Audio/Video on a YouTube video play back is in sync.(whoot whoot)  Camera app disappeared. UI drags behind (delayed touch response) No improvements to note.
