The case has a couple of small cracks in the thin strap under the USB ports, and the hinge is getting tight.
The fun part is that it does not currently have a working OS, as i fumbled an install.
So, i'm hoping someone with the chops and the inclination to see it through to working again will contact me.
It can be yours for the cost of shipping.

| Booting from NVME |

Hi all,
I finally bit the bullet and ordered a Intel 660p 512GB NVME SSD for testing my RockPro64 on it.
I downloaded the latest Ayufan Debian Buster build from https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-b...m64.img.xz
I originally installed it on an SD card, then decided to copy it over to an USB stick (supposedly faster).
After that I again copied it over to the NVME drive.
The script I used for the migration is:
Code: #!/bin/bash
# Parameters
source="/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Samsung_Flash_Drive_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-0:0"
destination="/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-INTEL_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
partitions=(1 2 3 4 5 6 7)
backupFolder="./backup"
rootid=7 # Root ID partition number
# Generate timestamp
timestamp=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M)
# Create folder if not exist
mkdir -p $backupFolder
# Save GPT disks
sgdisk --backup=$backupFolder/$(basename $source)_$timestamp.sgdisk $source
sgdisk --backup=$backupFolder/$(basename $destination)_$timestamp.sgdisk $destination
# Copy $source layout to $dest and regenerate GUIDs
sgdisk --replicate=$destination $source
sgdisk -G $destination
# Clone partitions
for partition in "${partitions[@]}"; do
echo "Clone partition $source-part$partition -> $destination-part$partition"
dd if=$source-part$partition of=$destination-part$partition bs=1M status=progress
echo "Cloned partition finished!"
done
# Must be done manually for now ...
#yes "-1MiB" | parted $destination resizepart $rootid
#e2fsck $destination-part$rootid
#resize2fs $destination-part$rootid
I then included the following modules and regenerated the initramfs:
cat /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
Code: # List of modules that you want to include in your initramfs.
# They will be loaded at boot time in the order below.
#
# Syntax: module_name [args ...]
#
# You must run update-initramfs(8) to effect this change.
#
# Examples:
#
# raid1
# sd_mod
pcie_rockchip_host
phy_rockchip_pcie
nvme
update-initramfs -k all -u
I cannot book from NVME at the present moment. The onboard red LED stays lighted up.
If I put back the USB stick it boots normally.
Is there something I am forgetting ? Thank you

| Faulty Microphone - BH |

Hello,
Apparently I have a PinePhone with a faulty microphone (or some component on which the microphone depends on) - it never worked.
A few days ago, I have found out that the audio routing for the phone calls is finally working. I downloaded and imaged the SD card with the latest build of Ubuntu Touch (at that time #307) and made a call to my Mrs. I could hear her in the PinePhone's earpiece but she couldn't hear me. Then I tried with a pair of headphones with the microphone on the wire. This worked - I could hear her and she could hear me.
I have re-imaged the micro-SD card with other distros: Debian with Phosh, Manjaro, and a couple of other Ubuntu Touch builds, including #318.
I have also turned on and off the kill-switch for the microphone (3) - it made no difference.
Has anyone else had this issue? Any feedback?
Thank you,

| Firmware Update over Bluetooth LE |

Hi All: Here's a proposed plan for supporting PineTime firmware updates over Bluetooth LE. If you're a firmware developer, please take a look...
https://lupyuen.github.io/pinetime-rust-...ticles/dfu
It covers everything we need to do to implement firmware updates in our firmware: Bootloader, Bluetooth Stack, Firmware Rollback, Flash ROM Layout, Firmware Format, Mobile Apps, ...
We need to adopt a common mechanism for firmware updates if we wish to allow PineTime Owners to switch firmware easily. It's more work for us developers... But it's a huge benefit for PineTime Owners!
Please lemme know what you think... While writing this article I have received really good feedback from firmware developers. Their suggestions have been documented in the "Upcoming Enhancements" section.
The most serious limitation in the proposed design is that the firmware size must not exceed 232 KB. Hence there will be an upcoming enhancement to increase this limit (by moving the Standby Firmware Image to External SPI Flash).
Thanks everyone for the awesome work on PineTime... Now let's make PineTime fun and easy to learn and explore! :-)

| Error when trying to install local package with pkcon |

I'm a beginner with Linux so please understand my skills are quite limited for the moment.
I wish to install Open Store so I installed PackageKit
Code: $ sudo apt install packagekit
Then downloaded the armhf package from this page: https://open-store.io/app/openstore.openstore-team and ran
Code: $ pkcon install-local --allow-untrusted openstore.openstore-team_2.95_armhf.click
However I'm getting the following error
Quote:Installing files [=========================]
Testing changes [=========================]
Finished [=========================]
Fatal error: Could not find package(s)
Same issue if I'm trying to install another application like OSM Scout Server
What am I missing?
Thanks for your answers

Hi all,
I'm looking for some assistance please, I received my RockPro64 (+NAS case, fan, heat sink, 2xSATA board, Pine power supply) and set everything up, using ayufan's OMV images, and everything worked great. Up and running in about 1 hour (including putting the fan in the wrong place/orientation 3 times).
However, after shutting down in linux, moving it to my server cab and trying to boot again, I am no longer able to get my device to run. I don't get into Linux, I get a stack trace, after which the device reboots, but then does not power on again (I have to remove the power in order to then boot again).
I have removed all devices, so I'm running with just the board, USB keyboard and DVI connected to my display (I've just tried removing the network connection) but get the same results each time.
I've used both the armhf and the arm64 variants on the same SD card.
I am a programmer, but my embedded days were limited and a long time ago.. Can anyone offer advice on how to investigate further? Do I need to go the UART route, or am I best trying to return my board?
Thanks
