  PinePhone Pro silver lining, it’s fast, real damn fast
Posted by: ashoka232 - 03-20-2024, 01:45 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (6)

There’s been a lot of grumbling the last few days among my friends about PPP and various power issues. Frankly, it makes a person a bit paranoid to enjoy their new device. As soon as I got it I mentally made note:

  1. don’t even attempt to upgrade packages
  2. take out the battery the instant you are done
  3. find some way to prevent deep sleep
  4. keep plugged in at all times https://www.fuelly.com/forums/f8/loose-g...22996.html
All that worry aside, a small little part of my brain is smiling about how fast it is. I knew as soon as I got it I would have a gut check about whether it’s speed would be tolerable or not. I can safely say yes.
Web browser loaded up Reddit just fine and scrolling felt good.
I’m eager to get to work with some gesture control phone experiments I want to do. This phone is going to be a winner.


  pinephone can provide more than 500mA to a usb-c displayport device?
Posted by: unrznbl - 03-19-2024, 01:02 PM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (2)

I am wanting to use Xreal air glasses with my pinephone. I have the manjaro edition so don't think there are usb-c issues with the hardware.

I see in log messages in dmesg that the anx7688 driver sets a 500mA limit when the glasses are plugged in.

I confirmed with the manufacturer that 1A is needed.

I see good info from xrandr and such but the glasses won't turn on due to lack of current I suppose due to this 500mA limit.

I couldn't find any information on wiki pages or anx7688 product brief to tell me if I could increase the limit to a different value, say 2100 mA or 3000 mA as I might expect from a USB 3.1 device.


  link for supported pinephone os manjharo et all
Posted by: penguins_rule - 03-19-2024, 09:53 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (3)

Hi-

the images at the manjaro site only have a checksum and the site looks funny like no CSS styling is applied.  It is just a bunch of hyperlinks.
Mobian didnt have a way to verify either.

I am desperate for an image. Can someone point me somewhere there is a cool image i can use with the pinephone that is supported?
I like manjaro gnome but v16 aiin't workin.

thanks,
jim


  Not receiving SMS messages
Posted by: squiggums - 03-19-2024, 12:43 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - No Replies

Hey

I am a fairly new user, just got my phone set up with a new SMS, installed all the updates etc etc.

I seem to be able to send SMS messages, but I only receive them some of the time. The last three people who have tried to send me an SMS message they did not go through. I didn't get any notification and they don't show up in my messages.

SMS app being used is Spacebar
Phone app in use is just "Phone"

The notifications for SMS when the phone is in sleep mode are also a bit dodgy/unreliable, but I am more concerned with not getting any message or notification at all when people are trying to contact me.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  Maskrom: How to tell what's on the SD card?
Posted by: zogkarndon - 03-18-2024, 09:14 PM - Forum: PineTab Software - Replies (7)

I managed to corrupt my EMMC, and am trying to boot from SD.

I've flashed an image onto a 16 GB SD card.

I've set up the debug adapter, and positioned the switch to the left (labeled Maskrom/SD).

However, when I boot, the serial console always shows that it's trying to boot from MMC.

If I interrupt the boot process, I end up at the maskrom console.

How can I check the status of the SD card from the maskrom console?   

Alternatively, how can I force booting from the SD card (from the maskrom console)?


  cant verify mobian image at website gnugpg
Posted by: penguins_rule - 03-18-2024, 08:54 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - No Replies

hi all-

I might have done something weird verifying can someone take a quick moment and check if the mobian image is okay for  the posh?
The sha256sum works but not the gpg (unless i did something wrong)

thanks


  Rock64 No Audio @ Debian 12
Posted by: dmitrymyadzelets - 03-15-2024, 09:01 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (2)

How to reproduce:

  • Install Debian 12
  • Observe the "platform analog-sound: deferred probe pending" message in the output of dmesg
Expected: no such message.

The above is the root of the problem, IMHO.

Additionally, you may:
  • Install alsa-utils
  • Observe no analog-sound in the output of alsa -l command, but spdif-sound and hdmi-sound do exist.

Expected: Three sound interfaces: analog-sound, spdif-sound, hdmi-sound (as described in the Device Tree file located in /boot/dtbs/.../rk3328-rock64.dtb).

Linux rock 6.1.0-18-arm64 #1 SMP Debian 6.1.76-1 (2024-02-01) @ Rock64 v2


  No news?
Posted by: nixcamic - 03-12-2024, 11:27 PM - Forum: Community and Events - Replies (6)

Hey y'all, just wanted to check in since there seems to have not been any community updates since mid last year, and PineTalk is dead, there really doesn't seem to be any way for people in the community to keep up with what's happening in the world of Pine64. Is there any other way I can get updates? Any news on if/when blog posts or some sort of community updates will resume?


  never mind i did something spacey
Posted by: stealth-droid - 03-10-2024, 02:09 PM - Forum: Getting Started - No Replies

hi all-

i am waiting to get a new sd card. more to follow later.
i did something wrong. i got frustrated because i managed to get the system updated with  sudo pacman -Syyu etc. and then it wouldnt boot. But it is because of something i did not pinephone. Blush
Wish me luck it will recognize the new sd cards when i flash them and go to install.

thanks


  please remove version 16 (beta)
Posted by: stealth-droid - 03-10-2024, 09:10 AM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (1)

Hi guys-

The version 16 might have a bug.

blocking rcu node structures. Another user also reported it. Please don't continue to leave it up there because we go through the steps to get manjaro working and then it hangs.

I'm new so i have to figure out how to put the right beta version on my pinephone now.

thanks,
stealth-droid
