  No battery or wifi after poweroff
Posted by: Goin2mars - 07-19-2020, 08:00 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

Hey I tried to find an answer for this for the last few hours but couldn't. I currently can't get any battery info or wifi or even networking on my pinebook pro.


I've booted it off an SD and the internal emmc. The iemmc is running the out the box Manjaro and the SD was running same but with lxqt on a cryptsetup.


A few days back I'd updated the thing and I think there were well over 60 packages and I don't think it was rebooted at the time.


Last night I let the battery run out after forgetting to plug it in and I'm pretty sure it did a poweroff command but anyways when I went to try it out today there's no battery information that can be gotten and nothing is showing up for networking, there's no wlan0. I've also tried a USB wifi and even that won't do a thing and I know it works.


Also the battery certainly works as I can boot it unplugged and run it without ac power with no issues.


Could there been something I screwed up because I didn't reboot it after those updates or what? What can I do here?


Why does this affect both of these? I only updated the os on the SD card.


  Pinephone battery outside US
Posted by: kajika - 07-19-2020, 04:59 AM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (8)

Am I very interested in buying a Pinephone (now that it is available in the store) but as I live in Japan it seems I wouldn't be able to buy any battery (amazon will not help too). I would like to know if there is any work for trying to ship the battery to other countries.

I know the legislation is quiet harsh since some accidents with batteries in planes but as they are made in China it would be nice to ship them in Asia (China itself obviously, South Korea and Japan by boat should be OK).


  Release CAD files for NAS case or parts of it?
Posted by: diizzy - 07-19-2020, 02:48 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (5)

Hi,

Due to costs of logistics and taxes etc is there a possibility to release CAD files for the NAS case, possibly for a small fee or at least the outer case as it would be nice to have a case available with a smaller footprint in case you don't want to use it as a NAS but still want to utilize the PCIe slot such as a network router.

Someone else asked about this several months ago on Twitter without any reply but I can't find the comment now.

Thanks in advance!


  USB Tethering
Posted by: scott_VYuCAbn3k1NFK - 07-19-2020, 12:22 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (19)

I've tried to get USB tethering working on the pinephone without much success.

I followed the steps here (https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=tweaks) a while ago (I think with the 5.6 kernel) and I was able to SSH into the pinephone via USB, but couldn't actually get my laptop to access the internet through the pinephone.

Since installing the new 5.7 kernel, the laptop no longer even sees the pinephone. Is it possible to have USB tethering / SSH access, or is this now not possible with the current kernel? My pinephone is fully updated using apt upgrade and I also have pinephone-devtools installed.


  sxmo image Verizon calls and SMS work!
Posted by: Saliency - 07-18-2020, 03:53 PM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (8)

I just installed the latest sxmo image... and phone calls and SMS work under Verizon...! 

I thought they weren’t working under regular Phosh/postmarketOS.... but maybe it was just a configuration issue?

Anyone have any insights?


  Dark screen on boot up (?) on new Pinebook Pro with Manjaro
Posted by: ocschwar - 07-18-2020, 03:44 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (14)

Hi, all. I just got a new Pinebook Pro, with Manjaro, and was beginning to have fun with it. I tried a software update and when I cameback to the machine, I could not get the screen to light up. I've powered it down and back up several times and at no time does the screen backlight turn on. 

Is there any key combination I could type to try to force it on? 
Many thanks.

  any plans to release motherboard for 1.2A
Posted by: blackfire - 07-18-2020, 12:13 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (8)

so like many others I purchased the ubuntu touch CE version of the phone when it was released. i like it but i was quite interested into the convergence aspect. I understand that to do that you can remove some chips from the board but I don't want to risk breaking something else.
Could pine release to buy the updated board with the extra ram and emmc so i can swap them out in my device. I obviously don't need any other components and if I had known they would have increased the specs a month after the initial release i would have purchased that instead.


  How to change the minimum password length when changing from default passwords
Posted by: arturo2bodegas - 07-18-2020, 10:12 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

Hey, guys...I'm trying to change my default passwords for default user and root...passwd isn't happy with my password length, yet it's longer than the default 4-character password...what gives? How can I change this requirement to allow for a shorter new password? Also, a related question...mobian is the default user...can I make a new user and have a multi-user system, or is mobian pretty much the only user apart from root that will work with this setup? on the top bar of phosh there's a grayed-out option to logout...wondering if that can be implemented?
Thanks in advance!


  Purchase Convergence mainboard
Posted by: brb78 - 07-18-2020, 07:50 AM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (13)

I am an early supporter and adopter of the Braveheart PinePhone. I thought there would be no major revisions to the hardware (just bug fixes) when I went and pledged my support. Now I see a significantly improved Convergence edition mainboard and feel like I would have been better served waiting, certainly not the mindset any of us want for the project's success. We need to be sure that us pioneers will be properly supported throughout the project, else how can we expect anyone to risk early support?

To this end I request the ability to purchase a Convergence edition mainboard to update my device, and not be left out of the 3GB ram / 32GB EMMC party because I believed in PinePhone before the masses. I don't regret my support, nor am I looking for a handout, just the freedom to purchase an upgrade.

I'm testing twinkle with an amv router.

the windows overlap, however the biggest problem is the microphone because my interlocutors can't hear me and I don't know which other device to use in the configuration (alsa by default doesn't work)
for windows, I contacted Luboš Doležel
