Hi,
Yesterday I received my PinePhone. Really love the build quality! As you know, it comes with just the factory test image flashed. Going through all the tests, I found out that the EG25 modem automatic test failed. I've been trying a couple more times, but it keeps failing. Is there anything I need to do to make the test pass, or might the modem be broken? Or am I just being paranoid?

My Android phone is visible in "Devices" (GUI, default Debian MATE) only in PTP transferring mode (only media files).
When I switch (on phone) to "File Transfer" mode (mtp - Media Transfer Protocol, if I understand correctly) - the device disappears.

What could be the problem?

Tracking down a firmware bug in PineTime? Or trying to understand an alien chunk of firmware code? 

VSCode Debugger with ST-Link can help! 

Lemme show you how I used the debugger for my first contact with RIOT-OS...

Debug RIOT-OS on PineTime with VSCode

I'm running manjaro off of an SD card, on the PBP, and trying to get webkit2gtk to compile (and eventually to compile it with the GLES2 flag - gl4es works OK, but I'm guessing real support will be better). It works fine if installed directly, rather than built from source.

I'm using the standard PKGBUILD, which as far as I can see is the same as the archlinuxarm PKGBUILD, at least on aarch64. The build fails, with the stderr in the attached log. I wonder if anyone as figured this out, or has any insight?

Let me preface to saying I neither "need nor want" to be able to use a DVD or CD on the PBP, I'm just curious.

I tried hooking up an external DVD drive and nothing I did could get it to play. Tried many players and added the codecs it said it needed. Nothing will play a DVD

It will play whatever digital video I click on including 1080p .mkv.

I'm curious if anyone else has tried and what the outcome was.

Hello,

I broke the hinge of the pcie nvme connector on the motherboard!

Now i'm seaching for a replacement part.

On the wiki the connector is referenced as U7001 and in the schematics as U7001 / BL102-G35-1FR

Is there someone on the forum who can tell me the (digi-key) partnumber is? Any partnumber of a suplier is ok. 


Sorry for my crappy english not my native language


Grtz, Ron

Hi,
Just received my pinephone yesterday. Everything is fine except that my SIM card isn't recognize. On the factory test Modem status is OK, Call status is "Ready for call" but Sim status is mentioning "No sim" while there is a working SIM card plugged in.
I managed to try Ubuntu touch : it also says that there is no SIM card.
Does it has something to do with my location (France) ? Or with the kill switch (I didn't touch anything) ?
Thanks !

Hi PineTime Fans: Below is a livestream of me debugging the RIOT-OS firmware (for the very first time!) that I downloaded from https://github.com/bosmoment/PineTime-apps

I used VSCode with ST-Link. More details coming soon at https://medium.com/@ly.lee/debug-riot-os...f00c69c120

Hi,

new user here. After I was able to compile R from the source codes and encouraging links in the internet (see http://ramseygurley.blogspot.com/2014/02...n-arm.html). However, when I try to invoke 

sudo ./install-dependencies-debian

I am, first of all, quite puzzled that all R/libraries are again installed from scratch, second I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/rstudio-tools/depot_tools/gn.py", line 75, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "/opt/rstudio-tools/depot_tools/gn.py", line 70, in main
    return subprocess.call([gn_path] + args[1:])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 168, in call
    return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 390, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1024, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error

I read at the rstudio-forums about a similar issue (https://community.rstudio.com/t/setting-...b/18982/44) but found there no answer.

Does somebody had any success with compiling Rstudio on a pinebook pro and/or know what to make of the above error?

I can't seek the problem.
Some time ago it seems to me that this happens while wifi malfunction.
But now I can't say it is so.
Who have such a problem?
