Hey guys,

Has anyone used qemu to run windows xp on their pinebook pro?  I have installed winxp and aoe1 so far, it is running sluggish.  Since it's a different CPU, I can't accelerate it via KVM.  I also don't have sound working yet.  I did compile qemu from source, I didn't try the binaries from the Manjaro package manager.

Any help would be awesome, thanks

Is there any information available on the body? Measurements? that would help me creating my own watch bodies?

Just got a new battery for the fun of it, and to have a spare. Basically I just got the cheapest one from the local ebay resellers (under Au$ 14).
listed as an  "EB-BJ700BBC".  

Seems to work quite well, only problem was that it a had two small plastic nubs at the bottom (i think they must fit into some positioning holes on the inteded handset) which stopped it from fitting. After I filed those off it it just drops in and seems quite tight.

Who knows how it will perform, but the form factor is right.

With the upcoming release of the pinephone, I think it is a good priority to make the store ui a bit more user friendly, as there will hopefully be an influx of new users/buyers.
Just something as simple as tabs with the categories --rather than a list you have to scroll through for a minute or two-- would be fine.

Sincerely, 
--a concerned noob.

Hey guys, IDK if this has been answered, trying to find out:

          1) when I can order a PineBook Pro?
          2) what additional hardware would you suggest I order for it?
          3) Do you ship to Canada?

Thanks for any input, if this has been answered elsewhere I apologise, and a link that answers these questions is just fine as well.

I'll admit that I don't write code or develop for a living. But I don't think that's the major point of the Pine Time. It seems like a hobby/community participation device.

So, as an amateur (very amateur) coder, I'd like to make this point:

It's really hard to get code onto the Pine Time.

You have to take it apart and stick wires on the motherboard. That's... a tiny bit ridiculous for a device whose entire purpose is for hacking code. Why couldn't you just put a little port on the side that you could plug a serial adapter into?

Also, the device is flash protected to start. Why? That doesn't make any sense. That's like selling someone a kit car with the hood bolted shut so you have to get bolt cutters and wrench it open before you can put the kit together.

These problems add a dozen steps to the initial development process.

Hi, the back cover of my pine time watch keeps falling off. Am I doing something wrong? Is it supposed to be like this? Thanks

Back case developing crack. My BraveHeart back has developed a crack on the button side about halfway between the buttons and the bottom. I've got some pictures but they are too big. Hopefully these did not lose too much detail.

Is there a binary file (hex file) of stock firmware installed on pinetime ? I have MOY-TBH3 1.7.8 version.

Hello people,
I have some sort of defective screen (I guess). It has covered up with stripes after few seconds of work. It seems like full pixel rows across the screen died. There is other artifacts some times (like vertical "ghost" lines of the bright picture elements or vertical jitter). Take a look at the video and photos. I try to get help from support for 21 days. And all I got is two replies. The last one was 16 days ago. They asked me for video and disappeared. It seems they just ignore me. What should I do to get a replacement (or a bug fix if this is some how software problem)?
