Thanks,

Hello everyone! 

Thank for you all for taking the time to read my post.

Has anyone had any success installing/building a VoIP/SIP client on the pinephone?

If so, could you please outline-

1. The distro you used (doesn't have to be Linux);
2. The VoIP/SIP client you installed/built (e.g. Linphone, BareSIP, PJSIP);
3. The codecs used; and
4. If possible, a copy of your sample config (less passwords et al).


Many thanks again in advance!

Just found the latest phosh image for download. I will give it a more in-depth test tomorrow, but one thing I noticed is that when I try and dial a number, it says "ModemManager unavailable". Consequently, SMS does not work either.

A step backwards? Is this an attempt to address the battery drain?

On the other hand, the inclusion of the Midori browser is a welcome addition. It seems to work well.

So I'm using Manjaro for ARM with KDE and it is in general fantastic, so thank you very much to the team behind it.

I have one major issue - whatever I do my trackpad still isn't accurate.
I have run the firmware update described on the Manjaro forum - it helped a bit but I still find that the pointer keeps moving after I drag it across the screen.
I have experimented with the config file, any feedback is welcome:

Would others mind catting the contents of their file?
And are you all using synaptics or just libinput?

Cheers.

Surprise, surprise. Not unlike the PBP, there's been enough interest in backplate skins for the PinePhone, that we're going to add it to the list of cool stuff to print. Since any skinning is worthless if we don't produce designs the community likes, I'm starting this poll to ask the users: What kind of skin would you like to see on your PinePhone?

I just got my resource file, but as per the PBP, I will also create and add a vector template for the PinePhone backplate to the wiki, once I've finished it.

For anyone curious, I will be aiming to make the skins a good fit for the phone + the clear case.

EDIT: This thread is about skinning the PinePhone only. I am not an employee of Pine64, I cannot help with any ideas or requests concerning future PinePhone cases. I am a member of the community with the professional knowledge and connections to help make customization through skinning a possibility and option for the community.

If you are not interested in skinning, that's totally fine. You do not need to reply or vote. If the community is purely disinterested, the lack of response/votes will be telling enough.

With that out of the way, let's talk about skins!

EDIT2: Thanks to @loefflerlabs we have a PDF vector template ready to have art dropped in! When viewing the template, it will appear empty until opened in a vector image editor. Inside are 3 layers: CUT LINES (self explanatory, typically required by plotters --just needs the swatch set according to the plotter used,) TEMPLATE (shows a thin outline of the decal shape for reference,) and ART (art goes here.)

Grab the template here.

I'll probably convert some of the PBP skin designs to phone skins, and post mockup picks here.

I don't know is that only problem on my system, but I cannot run any webpage on sailfish web browser.

Hi everybody, 

I am currently having wifi issues making the pinebook pro unusable. 

Does anybody know of a wifi dongle that works well? 


I tried an edimax wifi dongle I still had fro my r-pi. I plugged it in, everything froze and the dongle died. 

thanks for reading.

Edit: I am running the standard OS that was shipped with the pinebook pro.
Edit: Dongle still alive, just didn't work for a moment on other machine.


Update:
Switched to Manjaro and the dongle works perfectly fine and so far appears to fix my wifi issues.

Hello all,

today I finally received my device. I was surprised that it directly boots to Android (Logo during boot says A64 Android 7.0) instead of factorytest I've seen for other people, e.g: https://medium.com/@fviard/my-first-step...0b7277b60a

The whole android is in chinese language so I'd tinker around on how to change the language. Does anybody know why's that and how can I run factorytest ?

Cheers

Can someone tell me when it is expected to have the final version of the PinePhone available/shippable?

Hello everybody,

I'm new to the game and look forward to learn a lot

I followed the directions in the wiki on enabling boot time messages (here), but I couldn't make them appear. I only see the splash screen.

Specifically, u-boot-update is not available. I also tried to remove "quiet" at the extlinux configuration file, but it didn't change anything. Why is the extlinux there anyways?

Does anybody have any ideas?
