Hi to everyone on this forum!

I found PINE64 searching the internet of some better alternative to the RPI and I think I found what I need: the Quartz64 Model-B. I've searched this forum, the website, the blog and I'm still looking for - hopefully - simple answers to these questions:

• I could not find any mention of the 8GB version of Quartz64 Model-B regarding availability. Did I miss something?
  
• Is there a summary of what is currently not working / still needs work regarding hardware support? I found a lot of old (2021) information.
  

Is there already a working OS for the pinetab RISC-V  version?

Hello all,

alright I read the wiki concerning flashing wasp Os thoroughly. 
But in the process already the first step doesn't work:

I use daflasher. The device is recognized instantly. But when I try to send dafitbootloader23 Hacked.bin
Daflasher says that this is no bin file.

I downloaded the bootloader several times. It is always the same.

Can someone help me here?

Thanks and take care!

Last week we walked through the Serial Console for Pine64 Ox64 BL808 64-bit RISC-V Single-Board Computer. And we hit some illogical impossible problems on Apache NuttX RTOS (Real-Time Operating System)...

(1) Console Input is always empty. (Can’t enter any Console Commands)
(2) Interrupt Claim is forever 0. (Ox64 won’t tell us which Interrupt was fired!)
(3) Leaky Writes are mushing up adjacent Interrupt Registers. (Or maybe Leaky Reads?)

Today we discover the One Single Culprit behind all this rowdy mischief: Weak Ordering in the MMU! (Memory Management Unit)

Here’s how we solved the baffling mystery:
Fixed the UART Interrupt and Platform-Level Interrupt Controller (Ox64 BL808)

Long sad story short:
Ny father passed feb 2023. I had a voice mail he'd left at the end of 2022. I have saved it and resaved it each time i access voicemail and listen to it for months after my dad passsed.  It was a bittersweet fix for missing him.  Then a few weeks ago it wasn't there any more. Ii may have accidentally deleted it, I don't know.  It seems that T-mobile tech support isn't equipped to help me.
Can anyone on the forum tell me exactly where the voicemail may be stored? I know the text messages are stored and are still on the phone in a folder in Purple.  But the voice messages? Dare I hope that they are also somewhere on my phone? 

Thank you for you input.

Hello, I'm playing with my new PineTab2. The question below is for DanctNIX, the default OS as shipped.

I wanted to play a DRM content (Netflix), the FAQ on https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineTab2_FA...as_Netflix? seems promising and points to "yay -S widevine-aarch64".

But the "widevine-aarch64" seems to be not available anymore, yay answers "No AUR package for found for widevine-aarch64". It is also not listed when I search for widevine in AUR, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?O=0&S...&submit=Go . Note that there is "widevine-armv7h" (for 32-bit ARM).

Searching, I found https://github.com/AsahiLinux/widevine-installer . But the README says clearly "Using Widevine requires glibc version 2.36 or later. Arch Linux ARM ships an ancient glibc version, and will not work at this time.". I see the AUR repos contain https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/glibc-widevine , I'm building it now (takes 20h to build already ). But I'm not even sure is this a good direction -- that is, should I install glibc-widevine from AUR and then hope for https://github.com/AsahiLinux/widevine-installer to work, or this is a doomed approach? I realize that upgrading GLIBC on my system is risky -- I'm ready for it (I can just reinstall the system), unless it is just known to not lead me toward the goal (Netflix on PineTab2).

The summary of my question is: Is there a way to play DRM content (Netflix) on PineTab2 now? If yes, how?

Hi all,

The second time I turned on my PBP, it wouldn't boot (power status LED was flashing green/red).
I was able to boot to Armbian from microSD by disabling the eMMC, and tried to reinstall Manjaro ARM to the eMMC using this installer.
After putting in the settings for the install, it threw some errors about some nonexistent files in /var/tmp, and presumably went ahead writing to /dev/mmcblk1 (It said it was setting it up for ext4).  Half an hour of nothing happening, and I stopped it.
Now when I turn the device on, the light doesn't come on at all, whether the eMMC is disabled, or not.
I'm at a loss as to what to do at this point if I can't even boot to an SD card.  Apologies for the lack of foresight in taking pictures or noting the exact error messages.

Hi,  trying to unweave what was the last version of armbian with network patches included, to get around problems with network on SOPINE running on clusterboard.  This has been a struggle with multiple references to "current" from what are now stale help topics.  Not forgetting to mention that the "current" version of armbian for the SOPINE 64 is failing its build .

Is there therefore a version /date of a distro that is known provide a pain free setup please?  That is, a version/date that has patches in and known to work?  Links perhaps please?

Understanding building a version is an option, is there therefore a full package list scratched out to use when building a minimum CLI version of armbian for the SOPINE on clusterboard please?  A list with all the right patches included?

Cheers,
B

I have Manjaro installed on the eMMC.  I used the Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-20.04-emmc-installer-20.04.img from OSDN, and then updated it.

Since then I've been able to try various operating systems on SD (eg. Ubuntu, Debian), but I can't seem to run Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-20.04.img from SD.

It's not simply that they are both Manjaro.  Manjaro-ARM-gnome-pbpro-23.02.img on SD loads.

Is there a way I can get Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-20.04.img to load without opening the computer and physically switching off the eMMC?

When I try to run Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-20.04.img off SD, the computer runs Manjaro off the eMMC and the SD shows as an external drive.

The reasons I want to run Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-20.04.img from SD is so I can update and configure it so I have back up in case the eMMC fails, and also have system where I can try things without breaking the OS on eMMC.

(Using Manjaro-ARM-xfce-pbpro-23.02.img from Manjaro's site instead wouldn't work because HDMI via USB-C only seems to work with the OSDN images.)

Any ideas?
