PinePhone

@domubpkm Different OSes are at various stages of completion. There are systems that feel like 'they're almost there' while others feel distinctly like alpha software. Some systems like postmarketOS or Debian + Phosh are capable of running android applications (to a degree) - here is an example.
Perhaps there are other OSes that run android apps too - I don' know that for a fact however.

I know most of the testing is being done in Europe but for us in the US, the time zone issue on UT Pinephone is a pain since we're so far from GMT.

Hey all, a significant milestone has been reached - the PinePhone now supports OTA updates. If you have a BH phone, you can download the image here. You no longer need to reflash to stay up-to-date, just update. The image also features a significant performance improvement.

What's the state of the USB-C display out and the DisplayPort alt drivers?

[AppLee]

@heng
That is not a priority.
Once most phone features are working there will be work to do on that topic.
But as far as I know the driver for USB-C display is not even ready for the kernel.

[HengYeDev]

@AppLee Does any other device have external display support other than the old nexus 5?

[PINE64]

For those with BH phones - if you want to try out location services and provide feedback, then here's the instructions

Hello,

Did anyone received PinePhone UBports Community Edition ? I'm curious if they started to ship it the customers. I didn't get any info regarding shipping yet.

[A Former User]

@tricky Nobody received them yet. They will ship out in May or June. Shipping will likely take a month, without customs delays or customs issues. Practice patience.

Hi @PINE64
For the Volla Phone, we are informed on Indiegogo of the number of phones that have been "ordered" at time t.
Could you do the same for the Pinephone on your site? That would be interesting.
Depending on whether or not you wish to make a distinction between the categories.
Or do you consider these indicators to be confidential for you?

[stanwood]

@domubpkm Indeed, number of sold pieces is indicated. However this value might concern all Volla versions, and not only UT OS edition. (I guess)

@PhoenixLandPirat I'm intrigued now to see the box design created by our own @CiberSheep Any clues?

[domubpkm]

@PhoenixLandPirat It looks like TAGADA PINK Pinphone lasagna !:face_savoring_food:

Hi,

I would like to ask you for a help.

My PinePhone UBports edition does not boot the OS - the PINE64 logo is displayed but then there is only black backlit screen and nothing happends for even 10 minutes. With power up button when starting the phone I get ubports logo with installing updates message. WIll I need to reflash the emmc or how should I proceed?

Thanks

[rocket2nfinity]

@Andrisk Sounds like it got stuck on the update. Try this https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10130

[Andrisk]

@rocket2nfinity That fixed the problem. There were some orphaned inodes found by e2fsck so that was exactly the problem you suggested. Thanks a lot.
