I successfully build librespot. (https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot) I just followed the normal building process but I also had to install cargo. I am using a UBtouch Edition. (You will need a Spotify Premium account in order to use it)

Edit: I tried installing it just using cargo install but I got an error that way. So I recommend building it like I did.

My experience with building it:

I used ssh and built everything on my phone. Remember that building takes much time, so make sure that your phone receives at least 0.5A during the whole process and has at least a third of the battery capacity left. With 0.5A your battery will only drain slowly. The device will get very hot so I recommend not using a case, opening the back plate, keeping it inside in the shade by room temperature and on a flat surface.

After building I was able to start playback by selecting it as a speaker using Spotify Connect on my desktop. (I guess it should be able from any other normal spotify client. I didn't have any problem with the playback when I plugged in headphones and when I unplugged them again. But if you accept a call while using librespot all audio playblack will stop and your audio won't work. I was just able to make calls again and use everything normally again after I had rebooted my PinePhone.

Librespot needs to run the whole time in the terminal. While playing music it uses ~18% CPU according to top. Just being idle uses about 7% CPU. But while librespot is not playing music the speakers will be on with a high pitched noise.

Here's how I built it:

Is Crust enabled on Mobian's stable build, and if not is there a way to enable it? The Mobian roadmap mentions "better power management to improve battery life" but it hasn't been updated in about a month.

Hey,

i tried to install this driver for my printer on the Pinebook Pro ->(https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/brother-dcp195c).
It needs the lib32-glibc package as an dependency but this seems to be not available for arm.
So my question might be a bit naive ...but it might be worth asking:
Is there a way to build it manual and use another alternative package?

Thank you in advance for help!

Hi, i installed a .img from the jenkins/ci of ubports. When i checked the version, it was (iirc) Ubuntu Touch version 3.
I tried to switch to the dev channel but this was horribly messed up (multiple dev/edge channels etc.).
Also, it did not save the setting and sometimes tried to update and sometimes not.
Now the device is pretty broken (the sd...). So i thought i could just install the latest .img to SD and be fine.
But i am not sure where i can find it? 
https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-mainli...tfs-arm64/ - i guess thats not correct, isnt it?

Hi,

Now I've been playing with my phone for a few days my one gripe is that the mobile/phone signal reception is not good, I guess the antenna isn't the best. While the signal isn't brilliant here I've always managed to get a connection.

Is there a port for adding an external antenna - can't immediately see one? Or has anyone tried adding an antenna?

Hi all,

I'd like to adjust u-boot, but I couldn't find /etc/default/u-boot like in my PBP/Debian, how it works in Mobian?

Hey guys, wasn't sure exactly where to post this, but I suppose it is an Armbian on PineA64(+) issue?

I'm trying to use my PINEA64 as a chip flasher to install coreboot on the ROM chip of my Thinkpad X220, as of these guides:

https://tylercipriani.com/blog/2016/11/1...pberry-pi/

https://karlcordes.com/coreboot-x220/

These guides use a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian however. I'm using the PineA64+ with 2GB RAM with Armbian buster (Linux 5.4.43-sunxi64)

Although flashrom successfully recognises the chip

Quote:

Code:

sudo mkdir flashrom && cd flashrom
sudo git clone https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom.git
cd flashrom
sudo make
sudo make install

I have flashed versions from 20200615 to the latest nightly and they all have the same issue on my Braveheart Pinephone. On booting and entering 1234 the ap drawer is presented and then 2 seconds later the screen goes off . I then no longer have access to the phone. I can unlock it again but to a blank screen. Help ?????
