Any idea what I could try to do when any sd card that I try on my pinebook pro gives I/O error when I try to write to it? I've so far tried 3 cards, the first of which I used earlier to try several distros on the pinebook pro and it always functioned flawlessly and was really fast. After I got the I/O error on that sd card I purchased two new sd cards but both of them give an I/O error straight away when I try to write on them on the pinebook pro.

Unfortunately I don't have any other sd card readers with which to try if the cards can be used and I really don't want to buy unneccessary hardware just for troubleshooting. Is there anything I could try with just the pinebook pro?

Hi
I think you guys should add a "backorder" button .
This would allow you to see how much intereset there is in each product so you could shift your focus and resources accordingly and also estimate the sales volumes.

FOr exmaple now pinetab is out of stock and there's no way custommers can give you feedback to plan your future orders.

Hi everyone, I right now am using Verizon and would like to get a pinephone and wondered if anybody had any experience using verizon with it and if it works partially, fully, or not at all.  Please include what OS as if I do get one I will most likely swap around a lot.

It seems something about build 143 changed the OTA updates to not only auto download but attempt to automatically install on reboot. Not my personal settings, just what it did. For my the update attempt was triggered on charging after a flat battery. As can be expected, it wasnt initialized properly and the update froze. Had to do hard reset. This seems dangerous as far as potentially corrupting devices especially with the known firmware vulnerability in the modem. Wanted to warn the dev team about this. Better keep our PPs safe and only install upon click.

Not exactly the same thing. Happy to keep the spare part. Reordered. Hope i get the right thing next time.

Has anyone any experience with running a VPN on the PBP? I use ExpressVPN, and it has some Linux installation options, not for PBP, of course, but I don't want to mess around until I hear from this query. The PBP is running great, and I don't want to throw a spanner into the works.

Hello,

First of all, I apologize for my English.

I want to assemble a portable ARM computer running Manjaro Linux and would need your help as I lack the skills to identify the necessary components.

It would consist of an ARM SoC in its small box also containing an accumulator and a portable screen.

I found this screen that seems to fit: https://www.asus.com/en/Monitors/ZenScre...fications/

The latter connecting via a USB-C DisplayPort, the SoC must be equipped with this function. This single connection also supplies it with its power supply and the SoC must therefore be able to supply it with the necessary electricity via this port (8W). I have spotted four ARM SoCs with, if I haven't made a mistake, and compatible with Manjaro Linux:
- The ROCKPro64 by Pine64.
- The Edge V and Captain + Edge byKhadas: https://www.khadas.com/edge
- The ROC-RK3399-PC (Renegade Elite) by Libre Computer: https://libre.computer/products/boards/roc-rk3399-pc/

Unfortunately, I cannot find any documentation / wiki provided on Libre Computer's SoC, which is eliminatory given my limited knowledge.

Could you list me the components to acquire to assemble such a computer?


Thank you.

I'm following the guide at https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/android-7.1 but failing at step 3

Step 1 is to d/l and compile rkflashtool (done)

Step 2 is to connect a USB A-to-A cable to the upper USB2 port on the Rock64 and my computer (I assume any old male-to-male / A-to-A cable will do)

Step 3 is to put the Rock64 into Loader mode but no matter what I do, it just goes through the normal boot process and ends up at a ' => ' prompt

The specific steps are
i) press and hold recovery button
ii) press reset button
iii) stop holding recovery button after 3 seconds

Is there any visual change I should be seeing on the console to let me know it's in Loader mode?

When I run 'rkflashtool n' to verify it tells me 'fatal: cannot open device.'  I'm also not seeing anything in 'dmesg' (but maybe that's normal)

My Rock64 is microSD only, no eMMC.

In older update versions of Ubuntu, I could start file transfer mode by holding the volume up key during boot. When I connected the phone to my PC, all partitions would show up and the content could be edited.

I can still do the volume up procedure, but on the phone, I get "Awaiting command" and the partitions no longer show up on my pc.

I can probably do something in Terminal, but I regret that this functionality has been lost.

UPDATE: Panic over. They are there, but not automatically mounted. You have to do this by hand now.

I was wondering if pureos or mobian will support 32 bit apps in the future?

Thanks!
