One of the most important things for me to get working is an e-mail client.

I installed Dekko 2 and received an update yesterday but still have the same problems:

I cannot set up an account! As soon as I get to the IMAP setup screen, I can select an input field but my input is not recognised, the field stays empty.

Any suggestions?

In another thread we discussed using desktop apps in Libertine (such as Thunderbird, for instance), but this is not working yet either.

I installed Manjaro KDE onto my eMMC from the SD card using the DD method. Almost straight away I was notified that updates were available via the desktop icon, I updated and all was good. I then used my Pinebook Pro as normal, however I did not see the update icon offer any updates, so I would open the software updater and check only to be told that my system was up to date.
I saw that version 20.04 was available. I checked and found out that I was on version 20.03, so I ran the software update and it told me that my machine was up to date. I then dowloaded (via anotherPC) and reinstalled Manjaro, this time version 20.04 and again was informed via the update icon that there were updates available. I got an error telling me that one of the updates could not dowload as a file already existed, solved by renaming the file and running the update again. 
So I am now running Manjaro KDE 20.04 but my question is how come 20.03 did not update? 
Thanks in advance

Hi All,

I am interested in understanding risk associated with designs using the SOPINE module.

We are evaluating replacements for a prototype H5 design.  

- What is Pine's relationship with Allwinner and what guarantees, or volumes, are in place to mitigate risk on A64 SoCs?
- Production schedules around SOPINE module/quarterly volumes

Happy to discuss more, share volumes, or move conversation to another medium.

Thank you all for all your hard work and time.

Best,
matt

Hello all, 

I posted about this issue over on the official UBports forum too, just thought I'd post here too in case anyone else is having the issue. 

I have been testing Ubuntu Touch on my BraveHeart Pinephone for the last couple of months and have been loving it so far, making plans for some things I'm thinking about building. 

Needless to say, I was excited about the OTA-12 update, bringing with it the CRUST battery management and actual OTA updates instead of having to re-flash my SD card every time there is a new release. Well, when OTA-12 was released the other night, I downloaded it as quick as I could, and flashed it onto my microSD card, inserted it into my Pinephone. 

For a few minutes, it might boot normally. I can usually get into the actual operating system for a few minutes, but it will always reset itself and end up going into a sort of bootloop between the Pine64 splash screen and the Ubuntu Touch loading screen. If it doesn't bootloop, it will just go into a blank, black screen until restarted again. I tried re-flashing it, using a few different SD cards and adapters, to no avail. 

When I was able to boot into the system, I tried checking for updates on each release channel, but haven't seen any new updates be pushed since then. 

Is anyone else having this issue? If you were having this issue, how did you go about fixing it? 

Cheers everyone, and hope you're all well!

Dear all,

It's been a little more than 3 months since I started hacking a Debian image for the PinePhone, by (manually) adding new software and fixing bugs step by step. Others have joined me in this effort, and a small team has gathered and did a great job at allowing the PinePhone to be used as a daily driver, at least as long as you don't have extravagant expectations such as "decent battery life" or "working camera"

We keep moving on as we're announcing the Mobian project, aimed at bringing Debian to mobile devices with as much upstream components as possible. We're focusing first on the PinePhone of course, but we plan to extend support to other devices, the next ones on the list being Purism's Librem5 and the PineTab (that is, as soon as we gets our hands on these )

Still, Mobian is not a distribution, but only an overlay to Debian, bringing you instant access to tons of existing packages, while making things easier for us as we try to keep as few custom packages as possible. This means working with the goal of upstreaming almost all of our work to Debian, and this is already going on quite well, as the base phosh packages (phoc, phosh, squeekboard and a few others) should reach the archive soon, and work on bringing phone-specific apps (such as calls and chatty) to Debian is well under way.

With this focus change in mind, we spent the last few weeks creating an infrastructure for the project, both to ease our work as developers, and to provide better user-facing services. The Mobian project now has:

• its own website
  
• a public Matrix channel
  
• a dedicated Gitlab group, including:
  • a project-wide issue tracker
    
  • a revamped (and mostly under construction atm) Wiki
    

I’m planning on purchasing a PBP. It’s one of the rare laptops that carry a processor without the inbuilt USA government backdoor like Intel’s Management Engine or AMD’s Platform (in)Security Processor.

PNB’s limited hardware specs of 4 GB RAM will have to do and the eMMC of 64 GB can be increased. After going through the forum it seems there is no possibility of ordering a PBP with an 128 GB eMMC pre-installed.

My question is if it is possible to install the additional 128 eMMC internally or if it can be installed in the SD card slot? I would be using the PBP while commuting so having an adapter like thing sticking out will be short lived as it will break off.

I'd like to find out how much shipping to thailand would cost with the taxes, and delivery times. For some reason I don't see express delivery option.

With OpenBSD 6.7 already around the corner, can someone please tell what's in stock for the Pinebook Pro?

Will all of the hardware be supported?

What's the installation procedure like?

Anything else worth mentioning?

My PBP appears to have completely crapped itself.

It was working fine for a long time. This evening, I turned it on, not realizing that the battery had drained to nothing. It made it to the login screen fine, I saw that it was basically dead, and rushed to plug it in. Before I could get there, it died. So I plugged it in via USB (it looked to be charging fine), waited a good half an hour and turned it back on, still connected to USB.

It booted up, went to the login screen, but as soon as I logged in, the entire screen glitched out and went almost entirely white, with some tearing. It did not resolve itself after a couple minutes, and was completely unresponsive, forcing me to do a hard reset. It turned off, and now will not turn on whatsoever. No boot screen, no power light, no screen backlight, nothing.

What I have tried:

• Booting from SD card
  
• Turning off eMMC and again booting from SD
  
• Reset button
  
• Recovery button
  
• Using a different eMMC module
  
• reflashing the original eMMC module
