Genode OS

[Josef Söntgen]

Got everything to install and test out with your new test image.

Thanks for testing, so dialing down the clock makes a difference (FWIW I mostly use “SanDisk Ultra” cards, which probably does not say much with all the different variants).

Here are still some lingering issues:

1) I originally noticed the # sign doesn't work for the phone, but actually the issue appears to be it doesn't register text input commands. An example is checking voicemail which requires typing in the phone number and hitting a button below the touch pad to initiate the call. It then asks for your PIN and to press #. Normally when you start typing, the audio message to type in your PIN number stops. However, it keeps going implying it's not registering the typing. Curious if this also occurs for the browser if anyone can think of a site that triggers something when text is typed into an input, but no button is hit afterward.

Noted.

2) When hitting reboot, I saw a brief flash of the Sculpt OS and then the red light went off again implying an error reading the SD card and the default Manjaro OS began to boot up. When accessing the SD card in the laptop afterwards again reads "16 GB Volume" instead of the previous "Genode."

I have not encountered this issue before. Does it make difference if you un-use the Genode Partition before rebooting?

3) I had the convergence pack hooked up to deliver both ethernet and a power chord at the same time to make sure I had enough power for installing and testing out the Presets. Briefly, DEVICE showed "AC," but most of the time it showed the power slowly ticking down implying that it's not receiving power. Note: this is the power chord I use on a regular basis and works fine with other PinePhone OS's.

Again, I have to confess not having used the convergence pack yet so I am not sure if that makes a difference. I will give that a try.

That's what I've noticed so far and am happy to test out newer images before your next big release. Also, I started a poll to get Genode/Sculpt OS it's own PinePhone Software subforum so all related content can be found in one spot: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=18211

That's nice .
