My Pinephone arrived today.
Unfortunately, its speakers and microphone are broken. Everything that goes through the mic sounds muffled and grainily distorted. Words are positively unintelligible through the earpiece.

Could this be due to bad wiring? Is it something I could troubleshoot/fix?

I've been having a heck of a time with it. I've been following these instructions, but the PineTab isn't behaving like the PinePhone (won't boot to screen on, but black, for the flash-sd.sh step.)

Turns out I needed to run chmod 775 * on everything in the images folder. Didn't realize that.

Is there a difference in the steps for the PineTab I'm not aware of, or does anyone have a fresh SD img they'd be willing to share? I swear I've seen reports of the support being there, and some already booting it.

Trying the .img from v0.2.0 now, but it seems to be in a loop. The backlight(s) come on for a few seconds, then shutoff, rinse, wash, repeat.

the v0.2.0 img didn't show any video, after fixing the file permissions for the release files from the Glodroid repo, I was able to get a card made for v0.4.0, but that had the same issues with no display. I want to try grabbing the 'next' branch for a more recent update, but I don't have the room typically required to build Android. Neither the built-in display, no HDMI out worked.

I received my Pinetab with keyboard yesterday. I had hoped that the software would be a little more mature, more usable; unfortunately, it's not. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Pine64. I just don't want to spend the next few months installing, testing, and re-installing.

$149. I'l pay shipping. US only.

Thanks.

Just got my Pinetab, seriously impressed with build quality and usability out of the box, but has anyone had success with libertine?  I just started poking around it and I'm looking for good sources of information on lxc and lxd containers.  I could be missing something but I've been trying to get FireFox to work with little success as of yet.  I'm going to spend a bit of time on it today to see what I can sort out from the console output.

I've been doing the preliminary research, and am a little concerned because I read on one of the other posts that the phone might not be supported in the US at all.

Can anyone confirm?

What's the best resource, for reading and research, as far as walking me through the setup process?

Thanks, fam!

I just got my PineTab delivered with DHL, and the screen is cracked.  I wouldn't really care, but unfortunately it is making the touch screen functionality not usable. 

Is there anyway to get a replacement screen, or ship it back and have it replaced?

Thanks for any support you can provide.

I'm happy to announce Hypnos version 0.1.0-rc1, which is a free PineTime firmware compatible with the (coming) factory-installed bootloader.

The Hypnos project aims to

1. produce a functional, user-friendly, energy efficient firmware for the PineTime smartwatch
   
2. distribute all the software, fonts, graphics and documentation under free licenses
   
3. work closely with the PineTime community and its myriad of development efforts
   
4. do things the "Zephyr way" and to upstream any improvements
   
5. keep the code base clean and the build process free of warnings.
   

ANSI PBP, updated to the latest Manjaro version.

I'm trying to use the USB ethernet dongle from the store:
https://store.pine64.org/product/usb-network-dongle/

According to lsusb, it is,
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0bda:8152 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8152 Fast Ethernet Adapter

On the left side (USB 3), it typically won't work unless it's plugged in while the system is booting.
On the right side (USB2), it can be hot-plugged.

But in either case, it keeps dying after a short period of time, say 15 minutes, and then I have to reboot to get it working again.
The attempt to restart then hangs, and needs a long power press to hard-power off the system.

Left side failure log (from journalctl -r) :

Like the title says, Where can I buy? I read somewhere the phone will be available in October online in China, but where? Can I then use the phone out of china? Specifically USA? Will there be any China specific modifications to the hardware/ software?

Side note, living in China, I'm forced to use WeChat. Will it work on a PinePhone? WeChat typically doesn't let you use their website mobile site. As far as I know, you must use the app. I assume if you are selling in the Chinese market, you've considered this.

Attempting to connect to Google through UBPorts "Accounts" setting results only in an endlessly spinning "Wait" symbol



When I try to sign into my Google account with the Morph browser (or, for that matter, with the Onion browser, which I downloaded), after I enter my login name I get a screen which says "Google Couldn't sign you in. This browser or app may not be secure...".



Neither the Contacts nor the Calendar app allow me to connect to my Google data, through their settings; I'm guessing that the menu items to do so require that I have set up the connection through the general UBPorts setting.
