Cant really find any information about HackRF on Alpine online.

Shooting for this first..

Does anyone have information about getting HackRF running?
I have found alternative APK equivalent packages for LibUSB, FFTW, and default-jdk.

Linux:

1. To run, ensure these packages are installed (exact name depends on distro):
   
   libusb-1.0 libfftw3 default-jdk
2. Newer openjdk might work also, not tested. On Ubuntu 18.04:
   
   sudo apt install libusb-1.0 libfftw3-bin default-jdk
3. Follow the HackRF USB permissions setup - you have to add rules to udev to allow hackrf library to open the HackRF USB device, it does not work by default.
   
4.   --> "(The following things have been tested on Ubuntu and Gentoo and may need to be adapted to other Linux distributions. In particular, your distro may have a group named something other than plugdev for this purpose.)
   To do that, you need to create a new rules file in the
   
   Code:

   /etc/udev/rules.d
5. folder. I called mine
   
   Code:

   52-hackrf.rules
6. . Here is the content:
   
   Code:

   ATTR{idVendor}=="1d50", ATTR{idProduct}=="604b", SYMLINK+="hackrf-jawbreaker-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="plugdev"
ATTR{idVendor}=="1d50", ATTR{idProduct}=="6089", SYMLINK+="hackrf-one-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="plugdev"
ATTR{idVendor}=="1fc9", ATTR{idProduct}=="000c", SYMLINK+="hackrf-dfu-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="plugdev"

About a month ago I installed an intel 660p 2280 2tb nvme drive using the adapter available on the pine64 store. It has worked great and I even moved my home directory to it. Two days ago the drive disappeared which caused manjaro to kick me to a login screen which would not allow me to login. Rebooting put me into a command prompt saying home folder wasn't available. I thought it might be the ribbon cable so I re-seated it and rebooted, and the drive was back. But an hour later it disappeared again. This cycle repeated many more times, with me thinking the ribbon cable and connectors were the problem, and constantly re-seating the cable. I have a second nvme adapter, so I swapped it, and I get the same behavior. I also happened to have received another 660p for another project, so I swapped it in, to confirm that the issue was not with the drive, and yes, the drive is fine because the same behavior occurs with the new drive.

The nvme drive ran fine for about a month, but now I can't go beyond about an hour without it disappearing from the system. Perhaps the issue may be related to heat, since if I immediately reboot after the drive disappears, no drive but if I wait a while, the drive appears normally.

Any help or insights are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How can I edit a admin text file with Phosh?  Cant seem to find how to edit a file as root.

Hi Folks

Just wondering if anyone is having track pad problems

My track pad does not travel from corner to corner it only covers around 3/5th of the screen - I have connected a usb mouse but it is still the same and have tried connecting a blue-tooth mouse but no joy in getting it synced up, I have updated the system

The cameras are not working not that I am bothered but just adding it to the blurb in case someone has the same problem are it is connected

Many Thanks

Whilst UB-Touch being a reliable and well running OS the energy consumption is horrible!

Fully reloaded to 100%, phone lies on my office desk, Wlan is strong and 4G also strong here  ---> after 7 hours of NO USE battery is empty. After normal use with 2-3 calls and 2 times checking mail battery is empty in maximaum 2-3 hours.

Horrible, only usable ATM with a big powerbank in Your pockets or a always connected charger in the office.

Are there any changes planned for this in the future ?

How are you all enjoying your new Pinetabs?

The good:
- Nice onboarding proces, decent double box packaging.
- Nice port selection. Full USB A is great. It even seems to offer 2 amps output.
- The Pine logo on the front looks rather classy.
- The back cover has a nice pattern making the entire device easy to grip.
- Decent key travel on the keyboard, and the dock's touch pad is easy to glide on.

The bad:
- Dragging my finger over the screen doesn't feel great, and it creates noises. Is the display made out of plastic?
- My keyboard is slightly damaged, with some exposed soldering wire. I suspect the back of the keyboard wasn't glued to the faux leather properly. - or at all. To be clear: it was like this out of the box.

The expected:
- It's chunky. Where the pinephone is just as thin as other phones, the Pinetab is much thicker than other tablets.
- Having all the ports on one side could be interesting for a dock that holds the pinetab in a vertical position.
- The keyboard dock has a plastic feel. The faux leather isn't fooling anyone :-)
- It comes with a barrel plug in the box, but it charges from micro usb just fine.

The unexpected:
- I thought the back cover would be removable, but it doesn't seem to be.
- There's a big silver sticker on the back with text on it, such as its FCC ID.
- It's surprisingly heavy.
- The SD card slot cover is big. This could be an advantage for people who want to mod it. It could also house more dip switches (microhone - hint hint)
- The back speaker cutout is literally that, a cutout. It's a deep crevise, with a speaker at the bottom of the well. Or did my speaker just come loose?

I had to reboot the tab before the system software update became available.

Overall: it's a pure Linux tablet! I own a Samsung tablet that I needed for work, but I never use it personally because it makes me feel tracked and profiled. Now I can finally enjoy a tablet for some relaxing surfing.

I have a PP CE UBtouch , and i'm running Mobian from SD card - 20200821 with latest updates


mobian@mobian:~$ uname -a
Linux mobian 5.7-pinephone #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Sep 4 14:55:26 UTC 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux
mobian@mobian:~$


During a call today i wanted to turn up the volume (it's rather low).
The slider showed max volume , and i tried to turn it down,then up - Mobian (crashed) rebooted.

And now i dont have any reaction to volume up/down - No slider is shown , and no volume change is heard.

Any hints about what have happened ??

Or is it a rewrite of latest nightly on the SD ??

So Sunday my PMOS Convergent Pkg phone was working satisfactory.

This morning I was having trouble calling out,   when it did call out there was no ring-tone on the handset,   and when I called in from another phone there
was no voice audio in ether direction.

I checked in the Software store and there were updates available,    I downloaded those, and tried again  ...  Nothing
>> But after a reboot,   there is now ring-tone again on the handset calling out,     and audio is once again working.

Not sure why it quit,  after it was working ?
But the "Updates"  Did bring it back to life.

 Thank you PMOS Developers for those updates !

Factory install,  running from the eMMC    (TracFone/AT&T PrePaid sim card)

Is there an elegant way of doing a hard reset on the phone when it becomes unresponsive?  I have been removing the battery but it seems like a clumsy way of resetting the phone.

I'm have been having lots of fun tinkering with my Postmarket OS edition Pinephone.  I noticed that I am not able to make phone calls from my address book.  Text messages work just fine but not phone calls.  It's a minor nuisance and overall I'm still enjoying the experience.
