[[File:PINEA64_LTS_sideimg.jpg|400px|thumb|right|The PINE A64-LTS]]

The '''PINE64-LTS''' is the long term supply version of the PINE A64 (+), ''PINE64's'' first single board computer, powered by Allwinner’s A64 quad-core ARM Cortex A53 64-Bit SoC. There are many operating systems available for the PINE A64-LTS created by the open source community and various partner projects. The PINE A64-LTS is guaranteed to be supplied until the year 2025 at the very least.

PINE64 Community Rules and Code of Conduct

2022-03-02T17:15:35Z

Fire219: Protected "PINE64 Community Rules and Code of Conduct": CoC page doesn't need regular editing ([Edit=Allow only administrators] (indefinite) [Move=Allow only administrators] (indefinite))

== PINE64 Community Rules and Code of Conduct ==

These rules apply to all official PINE64 platforms and protocols facilitating social interactions, and will be enforced by moderators at all times. Failure to comply with these rules may result in a temporary or permanent ban from all PINE64 community platforms. If deemed necessary, a permanent ban can be issued without a prior notice. In extreme circumstances - such as those involving threats or hate speech - the Pine Store reserves the right to deny service to the offending party and notify local or regional authorities.

=== Foreword ===

We trust in people's common sense. There are intangible subtleties in human interactions that make a behaviour ‘OK’ at one time but not at others, and no artificial list of social-engagement rules, no matter how extensive, could capture this complexity accurately. To this end, we ask that you stay mindful of people’s sensitivities and address others respectfully at all times.
Moderators are tasked with facilitating discussion, maintaining order and keeping the debate on-topic. They also have the necessary tools to enforce these rules at their discretion. The official forum, subreddit(s) and some chat protocols have systems dedicated to issuing warnings. In the absence of a formal moderation system, a moderator may reach out to a user directly via PM/ DM to issue a warning. In extreme circumstances, moderation actions will be taken without issuing prior warnings.
Lastly, keep in mind that moderators have no power to make someone a friendly or nice human being (this was the said person's parents' job). Being an unsympathetic or crude person is not an actionable offense from a moderation standpoint. Hint: some chat protocols also give you the option to mute messages from select users.

=== 1) General Rules ===
* '''Read the rules''' before posting on the forum, the subreddit(s) or engaging in the chat(s).
* '''Be respectful to other community members.''' Discourse is always a good thing, and sharing your opinions and insight is valuable to us and our user base. But how you engage with others is just as important as the ideas you share. We pride ourselves on this being a friendly community, and we will take measures to maintain it this way.
* '''Stay on topic.''' If a topic is set for a forum thread or discussion group/ channel then stick to it. Want to talk about something else? - there is an #offtopic chat on our Discord and IRC, and a Community and Events section on the forums.
* '''Write in English.''' Unless the subforum or chat specifies a different language, please stick to using English. There are numerous unofficial PINE64-product forums and chats catering to end-users who prefer communicating in a different language. If there isn’t a discussion group in your native tongue, why not start one?
* '''Watch your language.''' Some of our community members are younger than others; expletives are not necessary to communicate your viewpoints or experience. Please avoid using curse words, thank you.
* Use the search feature before posting or asking. The official PINE64 form and various chat protocols offer a search feature. If you’re looking for information, before you ask, try searching for the key words related to your query first - it is likely the topic you’re interested in has already been discussed.
* '''Obey platform-specific rules.''' Some communication platforms may have additional rules in place. For instance, you may not ping everyone in Discord chat using the @everyone function or paste lengthy log print-outs in Matrix. Where applicable, chat or forum-specific rules need to be followed.
* '''Ask If you are unsure.''' If you are unsure about where to best ask your question, or you are not sure if the topic is compliant with our rules and code of conduct, then please first reach out to someone on our moderation team. Moderators are always clearly demarcated on the various social interaction platforms.
* '''Stay on-topic.''' The chats and forum have clearly designated topics related to hardware and software. It is expected that you stay on-topic in the individual chats or forum sub-sections, and that you refrain from posting off-comments that divert the discussion towards an irrelevant subject (sometimes called 'hijacking'). Some chat platforms offer an 'off-topic' channel, and here on the forum there is a 'community' sub-section, where subjects not directly related to hardware and software can be discussed (granted it does not violate any of the rules contained within this post).

=== 2) Form and Content ===
* '''Use standard formatting.''' You should adhere to platform standard formatting, such as default font, font-size, font-colour, line spacing, etc. Content written in all CAPS or in rainbow colours is at a risk of being permanently removed by moderators. Making your writing easily legible also helps with getting your query answered.
* '''Describe your problem''' and don’t ask if you may ask a question. When stating your query, make sure to describe the issues you’re experiencing and the trouble-shooting steps you already attempted. In the chat: don’t ask for permission to ask, just state your problem. If your question is directed at a particular person, make sure to use @ their username or handle to get their attention.
* '''Do not post any knowingly false or inaccurate material.''' This is self-explanatory. Posting information that is false may get you suspended or banned from our platforms.
* '''Do not post or distribute copyrighted or stolen material.''' Links to stolen material, be it images, video, plagiarized written content or pirated software will be removed immediately. Posting such content may result in a temporary or permanent suspension from all our PINE64 community platforms.
* '''Signatures are allowed on the forum.''' Please be mindful that your signature has to comply with all rules, just as any other content you submit on the official forum. You may, however, be asked by a member of the moderation team to alter your forum signature if it affects legibility of posted content.
* '''No advertisements of non-FOSS and commercial products.''' You are welcome to let people know about your FOSS project, as well as any FOSS/OSH hardware project, but other types of advertisements will be removed immediately. If deemed as spam, posting such content may result in a temporary or permanent ban on all our platforms.
* '''Images and other media are best shared via links.''' It is always best to upload your videos or images and link them on the forum or in the chats. While attachments can be uploaded on the forum, they are limited to 2MB total per post. The different chat protocols handle attachments differently, which may lead to the content not displaying across the chat protocol bridge.
* '''No politics, religion or other sensitive topics''' is permissible on any of our platforms. Simply put, there are better places to discuss such topics. This rule also applies to #OffTopic chat and Community and Events subforum. Posts referring to such subject matter will be removed and may result in a warning, and even a temporary ban if the activity does not cease.
* '''No offensive nicknames, account names or online handles.''' If your online handle includes curse words, inappropriate imagery, inappropriate or offensive mockery, or otherwise relates to sensitive subject matter you may be asked to change your handle (or the Admin may change it for you). Not complying with the request will be met with a warning, followed by a ban on all platforms.
* '''Moderation of heated discussions.''' In general, if a discussion is heated (and doesn’t violate any of our rules or general code of conduct) but productive, then the moderation team will not intervene. There are, however, instances where a heated discussion is either moot or likely to take a turn for the worse; in such an event a moderator may ask for a halt to the conversation. One moderator may deem a heated discussion to be in a good spirit, while another moderator may ask for the discussion to cease. The decision to stop the conversation is completely at the moderator’s discretion.

=== 3) Spam, Illegal and Inappropriate Content ===
* '''Automated spam (bots).''' We employ an automated spam protection as well as other measures that prevent new accounts from spamming the official PINE64 forum. New user’s posts need to be manually approved by the moderation team for a period of 3 days. Automated spam in the chats needs to be reported to the moderation team. We always strive to remove the spam and the bots as soon as possible. An IP associated with spam bots will be IP-banned.
* '''Spamming by end-users.''' Accidental or uninformed ‘spam’ - such as, for instance, pastes of lengthy log print-outs - may be removed by moderators, if it affects legibility of the chat. Use pastebin or similar to share a link with logs.
* '''Trolling.''' Trolling is defined as posting inflammatory messages to cause havoc in the community. Posting such content will result in a temporary or permanent ban from all PINE64 community platforms.
* '''Illegal''' content of any kind will be removed immediately and lead to permanent ban on all our platforms. If you encounter any illegal content on the official forum, subreddit or in the chat please report it immediately to the moderation team. In instances where it is applicable, the content itself and the associated account which submitted the post will be reported to the relevant regulator or local authorities.
* '''Sexual content.''' Any form of sexual content - in written, video or photographic format - is not allowed on our platforms. Posting sexual content will result in an instant ban on all PINE64 platforms.

=== 4) Threats, Hate Speech, Bullying and Harassment ===
* '''Threats of any kind''' will result in an instant ban from all PINE64 platforms. Threats made may also be reported to local or regional authorities by the moderation team, if they are deemed legitimate or/ and a cause of psychological distress.
* '''Any form of hate speech''' will result in an instantaneous ban on all our platforms and may be reported to local or regional authorities by the moderation team. Hate speech is a crime in most of the civilized world.
* '''Discrimination of any kind.''' Any forms or discrimination including, but not limited to, misogyny, sexism, racism, xeniophobia and agism will result in an instant ban across all of PINE64 platforms.
* '''Bullying.''' We will not stand for bullying of any kind on our community communication platforms. Every community member can rest assured that they can express themselves and their viewpoints without being made fun of or ridiculed. If you have been the subject of or witnessed to behaviour, please report it to the moderation team. Bullying will result in an instant ban on all PINE64 platforms.
* '''Harassment''', defined as any behaviour aimed at intimidating or humiliating another community member, needs to be immediately reported to the moderation team. If moderators determine that the offending party’s actions were designed to purposefully humiliate and intimidate another community member, then a subsequent ban from all PINE64 platforms will be enforced.
* '''Slander''' of fellow community members, Pine Store contractors and moderation team members will result in warning and, if the situation is not rectified, a permanent ban spanning all PINE64 social platforms. Slander is defined as: a knowingly false statement designed to damage reputation.

=== 5) Privacy ===
* '''Private details.''' Any materials made public on purpose or by accident which contains private or otherwise identifying information will be removed from our platform without prior notice. We define private details as information that includes, but is not limited to, phone numbers, emails, shipping addresses or IP address. For example: if you post a video of an unboxing where you inadvertently show your shipping address, the moderation team will pull the video down to preserve your privacy. If you encounter such content, please notify the moderation team.
* '''Materials under NDA or Embargo.''' Any confidential materials issued under an NDA are subject to removal from our community platforms without notifying the original poster. Such materials may include documents (e.g. schematics), schematics of unreleased devices, images of prototypes or written descriptions of unannounced devices.

=== 6) Software Feedback ===
* '''Software feedback.''' We and our partner projects value your feedback, but this feedback needs to be communicated in a structured and respectful manner. When addressing developers on our platforms please make sure to formulate your feedback and criticism in a constructive manner. Everyone has their favorite distribution, desktop environment and software implementations. This, however, doesn’t mean that alternatives to your favorite software should be taunted or ridiculed; ultimately, everyone is working towards a common goal and everyone’s work ought to be respected. In short, stay respectful of people’s work.
* '''Software feature requests''', similarly to feedback, should be relayed in a respectful and considerate manner. Keep in mind that many developers working on PINE64 hardware do so in their spare time, on limited resources and are offering their software as a service to this community.

* '''Reporting bugs.''' The PINE64 official forum and chats aren’t the ideal place to report bugs or other software issues. You are, of course, welcome to notify developers of the issues you encountered on the forum or in the chats, but ultimately this should be accompanied by submission of a bug report on GitHub and the software project’s forum.
* '''Adhere to partner project’s rules''' when engaging with their community on their social interaction platforms. Partner project’s forums and chats may be subject to different communication rules than our own; we ask you to stay mindful of this when discussing software designed for our devices outside of the PINE64 community platform.

Fire219: webchat gone

PINE64 is a community-driven company focused on creating high-quality, low-cost ARM devices and, more recently, RISC-V devices for individuals and businesses around the globe. PINE64 made its debut with the [[PINE A64|PINE A64]] single-board computer, which successfully launched on Kickstarter in 2015. PINE64 has since released a multitude of other devices, including both development boards and end-user devices.

PINE64 has a large, diverse and active community, and offers a variety of resources for hobbyists and businesses to successfully leverage various PINE64 products.

Fire219: battery rephrasing

The PinePhone is a smartphone created by Pine64, capable of running mainline Linux and supported by many partner projects. The BraveHeart Edition was the first publicly-available version of the phone, though it came without a fully functional OS (factory test image) and was geared specifically towards tinkerers and hackers. Its successor is the Community Edition, the first Community Edition started to ship in June 2020. The phone will be available for at least five years.

== First time installation ==

[[File:PinePhone-3.jpg|400px|thumb|right|PinePhone is capable of running a multitude of different Linux mobile OSes]]

[[File:PinePhoneSides.svg|400px|thumb|right|Backward and front of PinePhone UBPorts Edition]]

From the factory the battery has a sticker on it that isolates the battery from the phone. The battery '''will not''' charge until this is removed.

After unboxing remove the back panel using the notch in the corner of the back panel. Then remove the battery and peel off the clear plastic sticker below it that isolates the charging contact. Then replace the battery. See [[PinePhone#Battery|Battery]] for more information.

== Hardware accessory ==

=== PinePhone hardware accessory compatibility ===
See [[PinePhone Hardware Accessory Compatibility]] for a list of devices working with the PinePhone (depending on their OS support)

=== USB-C connector ===

The USB-C can be used to power the device, and offers USB2 host and OTG possibilities, and also can make use of the USB-C capability to integrate HDMI signals. Some USB-C hubs are available that offer power throughput, USB connection, HDMI port and Ethernet connection. The driver that would make this connection available is not supported at this time.

=== Pogo pins ===

The PinePhone has 6 pogo pins on the back allowing for custom hardware extensions such as wireless charging, an IR blaster, a keyboard extension or extended battery case. The pogo pins provide access to an interrupt line, power input to charge the battery, power source and an I2C interface.

{| class="wikitable"
| Interrupt
| SDA
| SCL
|-
| 3V3
| USB-5V
| GND
|}

The USB-5V line is for charging the phone and the 3V3 power source for powering peripherals to the phone. The I2C and interrupt lines have pull-ups on the phone side.

=== Back cover ===
A step file for the back cover for creating custom cases is freely available [http://files.pine64.org/doc/PinePhone/PinePhone%20Back%20Cover%20ver%200.5.stp here].

=== Serial console ===

The PinePhone has a serial port in the headphone connector, it's activated by the 6th contact on the dipswitch. If the switch is set to "on", the headphone connector is in audio mode, if it is set to "off" it's in UART mode. The UART serial connection can also be used for communication with other devices from the PinePhone.

The UART is 115200n8.

The pinout for the serial connector is:

* Tip: RX
* Ring: TX
* Sleeve: GND

[[File:PinePhone_Serial_Cable.png|none|400px]]

You can buy a serial debug cable from the [https://store.pine64.org/product/pinebook-serial-console/ Pine64 Store]. The store cable uses a 4 ring plug, as seen in the [http://files.pine64.org/doc/pinebook/guide/Pinebook_Earphone_Serial_Console_Developer_Guide.pdf here], but a 3 ring plug works just as well. The cable uses a CH340 chipset based serial to USB converter, but any 3.3v serial connection can be used. Because it is a "host"/DTE it means that you need a ''cross modem cable'' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem Null Modem]) with TX on Tip to be connected to RX. A cable like e.g. [https://www.ftdichip.com/Products/Cables/USBTTLSerial.htm FTDI TTL-232R-3V3-AJ] which has TX on Tip and RX on Ring fits perfectly.

== Killswitch configuration ==

[[File:PinePhone switches.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Photo of BraveHeart switches from OSAKANA TARO on Twitter]]

The PinePhone features six switches that can be used to configure its hardware. They are numbered 1-6, with switch 1 located nearest to the modem. Their "on" position is toward the top of the phone.

{| class="wikitable"

| Pulls up CHIP_EN
| "On" enables WiFi and Bluetooth communication hardware, "off" disables it.
|-
| 3
| Microphone
| Breaks microphone bias voltage from the SoC
| "On" enables audio input from on-board microphones (not 3.5mm jack), "off" disables it.
|-
| 4
| Rear camera
| Pulls up PWDN on OV5640
| "On" enables the rear camera, "off" disables it.
|-
| 5
| Front camera
| Pulls up PWDN on GC2145
| "On" enables the front camera, "off" disables it.
|-
| 6
| Headphone
| Pulls up IN2 on analog switch BCT4717ETB
| "On" enables audio input and output via the 3.5mm audio jack, "off" switches the jack to hardware UART mode.
|}

== Battery ==

{{Hint|The EG25 modem and RTL8723CS WiFi/bluetooth do not work without battery power, even if you are supplying enough power to the PinePhone with USB-C.}}

The [https://wiki.pine64.org/images/0/04/PinePhone_Battery_model_QZ01-396172-2750.pdf supplied battery] is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8120&pid=53307#pid53307 meant to be] compatible with Samsung part number EB-BJ700BBC / BBE / CBE from the 2015 J7 phone.
* The extended life aftermarket BBU do fit, however, somewhat firmly.
* There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8563&pid=55053#pid55053 a report] that the EB-BJ700CBE isn't quite the same size, causing the back not to fit properly.

The battery terminals, in order from nearest the edge to nearest the middle, are:

# +ve
# thermistor
# -ve
# not connected

The battery includes a protection circuit that isolates it in a number of fault conditions, including if it is discharged too far. The fully discharged battery [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8563&pid=55377#pid55377 can be recharged] by connecting the phone to a charger. Once it has charged sufficiently you will be able to boot the phone.

If your battery is hard to remove from the phone, try loosening the screws around it. Possibly cutting up a piece of plastic and sliding it under the battery as a pull tab can work too.

{{Note|The phone ships with a plastic sticker between the battery and the phone. You need to open the back cover (gently), then remove the battery and finally remove the sticker and check that the pins aren't bent. This is to protect the device from turning on during shipping.}}

If using an aftermarket battery on the CE edition phones, removing the lower tabs is not necessary as there is space supplied in the compartment.

</gallery>

== Modem and carrier support ==
To check if the PinePhone is supported on your carrier:

Search for your carrier on [https://www.frequencycheck.com/ frequencycheck.com] and compare the carrier's LTE/GSM/WCDMA frequencies to the PinePhone's supported frequencies (listed under the [[#Specifications|specifications]] section).

It is likely that there will be a few frequencies that your carrier uses which are not supported by the PinePhone. Not all of the carrier's frequencies need to be supported by the PinePhone for it to work - as long as ''most'' of them are supported, you will still get good coverage.

=== Voice mail ===

Some phone operating systems may not have support for accessing your voicemail by holding down the 1 key. If you are in Canada and using rogers or a rogers associated carrier (such as ''Chatr''), you can access your voice mail by calling an external number, see: https://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/913346-Rogers-GSM-Voicemail-Retrieval-Numbers

In America, AT&T also has support for accessing your voicemail via an external phone number: https://www.att.com/support/article/wireless/KM1009101/

=== APN settings ===

For tested APN settings and how to apply them see [[PinePhone APN Settings]].

=== Carrier support ===
The page [[PinePhone Carrier Support]] contains information about the frequency support of different carriers and hints on setting up cellular network connectivity.

=== Documents ===

There is a document about using the modem from January 18th 2020 by user ''megi'' [https://megous.com/dl/tmp/modem.txt here]. The script at the end to disable the modem before power off is pretty essential to avoid corrupting your modem's flash memory.

== Operating Systems ==

The PinePhone will automatically boot from microSD if a bootable card is inserted. Although it is technically possible to use any ARM distribution (because the PinePhone uses the mainline kernel), there are a few that are designed specifically for mobile use on devices like the PinePhone.

The [[PinePhone Software Releases]] page has a complete list of currently supported phone-optimized Operating System images that work with the PinePhone as well as other related software information. As soon as more patches get mainlined and distributions ship with the updated kernel, they will also be able to run unmodified on the device.

=== Installation instructions ===

For instructions on how to install the operating systems to the eMMC or SD card see [[PinePhone Installation Instructions]].

=== Flashing eMMC using Jumpdrive ===

[[File:jumpdrive.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Jumpdrive running on the PinePhone]]
The internal eMMC flash storage can be flashed using the Jumpdrive utility by Danct12 and Martijn from postmarketOS.
This utility boots from micro SD and exposes the internal eMMC flash storage when the PinePhone is connected to a computer.
The process of flashing an OS to the exposed and mounted eMMC is identical to that of any other storage medium - e.g. a SD card. You can use the 'DD' command or a utility such as Etcher or Gnome Disks, etc.

Latest Jumpdrive can be found [https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases/ here].

==== Detailed usage instructions ====

# Download the Jumpdrive image
# Flash the Jumpdrive image to a micro SD card
# Boot the PinePhone from the Jumpdrive micro SD card
# Connect the PinePhone to your computer using USB-A -> USB-C cable
# Flash the exposed PinePhone drive (e.g. /dev/mm..., check for the right device in dmesg, GNOME disks, or similar, and make sure it's unmounted) with your chosen OS image
# Once the flashing process is complete, disconnect the PinePhone from your PC, power it down and remove the Jumpdrive SD card
# The process is now finished, and you can boot from eMMC

Jumpdrive also acts as a rescue image in case if you messed up your installation. To do so, you can telnet to '''172.16.42.1''', mount rootfs and fix it!

==== Resize file system ====

If you flash a 4GB image distribution (such as phosh+debian) to your eMMC, your eMMC will only have a 3.7GB partition on it. To use the entire 14.7GB on the eMMC, run the following commands:

# sudo cfdisk /dev/sdX
# Change to [Resize] in the ncurses program, resize the 3.7GB partition to 14.7GB, and [Write]
# sudo resize2fs /dev/sdXY

Replace X with your drive's name. Replace Y with the partition you resized in cfdisk.

== Introducing PineBook Pro ==
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]

The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]

It is built to be a compelling alternative to mid-ranged Chromebooks that people convert into Linux laptops. It features an IPS 1080p 14″ LCD panel, a premium magnesium alloy shell, high capacity eMMC storage, a 10,000 mAh capacity battery, and the modularity that only an open source project can deliver.

Key features include: the RK3399 SOC; USB-C for data, video-out and power-in (3A 5V); privacy switches for the microphone, BT/WiFi module, and camera; and expandable storage via NVMe (PCIe 4x) with an optional adapter.

The Pinebook Pro is equipped with 4GB LPDDR4 system memory, high capacity eMMC flash storage, and 128Mb SPI boot Flash. The I/O includes: 1x micro SD card reader (bootable), 1x USB 2.0, 1x USB 3.0, 1x USB type C Host with DP 1.2 and power-in, PCIe 4x for an NVMe SSD drive (requires an optional adapter), and UART (via the headphone jack by setting an internal switch).

The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.

Many different Operating Systems (OS) are freely available from the open source community and partner projects. These include various flavors of Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, Manjaro, etc.) and *BSD.

== Software and OS Image Downloads ==

=== Default Debian MATE Desktop Quick Start ===

The default Operating system that ships with the Pinebook Pro is Debian 9 with MATE desktop. It has been built by a community developer called MrFixIt2001, who can be reached on the PINE64 forum or in the chats.
The newest release of the build can downloaded directly from [https://github.com/mrfixit2001/debian_desktop/releases MrFixIt2001's GitHub].

'''The default username and password is:'''
* Username: rock
* Password: rock

You can change the default ''rock'' username and ''rock'' home directory by logging into root (credentials root/root) instead of the default 'rock' user and running the following in root terminal and substituting desired username for NewUser:
[[File:UpdateScript.png|350px|thumb|right|Location of update script applet icon on stock Debian with MATE]]
<pre>
usermod -l NewUser -d /home/NewUser -m rock
</pre>

Once you log back into your new user, Bluetooth will complain about no transfer folder location. To fix this open terminal and type:
<pre>
blueman-services
</pre>

From here, select incoming folder under the 'transfer' tab.

The build includes a custom updater capable of updating uboot, the Linux kernel and numerous packages. The update script can be ran from both the userspace and the commandline. You will find a small 'Update Script' applet icon in the bottom panel, next to time and date applet.

You can run the script from the terminal using:
<pre>
sudo /usr/bin/mrfixit_update.sh
</pre>

More information about the default OS build and version history can be found on the [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=7830 Default OS update log] PINE64 forum thread.

== Keyboard ==
The Pinebook Pro is available in two keyboard configurations: ISO and ANSI. Both the keyboard and trackpad in the Pinebook Pro use the USB 2.0 protocol and show up as such in xinput. The keyboard features function (Fn) keys in the F-key row, which include display brightness controls, sound volume, trackpad lock, and other functionality. There is also a custom PINE64 logo key that functions as Menu/Super key. It has also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches.

The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility.

Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].

=== Typing special characters ===
The [[Wikipedia:British_and_American_keyboards#Other_keyboard_layouts|UK ISO Layout]] does not have dedicated keys for characters like the German umlauts (Ä,Ö,Ü, etc). Certain characters can still be generated by means of either key combinations or key sequences.
{| class="wikitable"
!Character
!Key combination/sequence
|-
|Ä, Ö, Ü, ä, ö, ü
|[[Wikipedia:AltGr_key|[AltGr]]]+'[' followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]
|-
|µ
|[AltGr]+[m]
|-
|Ø, ø
|[AltGr]+[O], [AltGr]+[o]
|-
|@
|[AltGr]+[q] (as on the German layout)
|-
|ß
|[AltGr]+[s]
|-
|§
|[AltGr]+[S]
|-
|°
|[AltGr]+[)]
|}

=== Privacy Switches ===
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Privacy switch function and description
! Combination
! Effect
! Description
! Notes
|-
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled
|-
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = WiFi enabled / killswitch disabled, 3 blinks = WiFi disabled / killswitch enabled.
| '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).
|-
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled
|}

'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus F10/F11/F12) for 3 seconds)'''

The keyboard uses special firmware that operates separately of the operating system. It detects if either the F10, F11 or F12 key, and the Pine key were pressed for 3 seconds. This disables the peripherals as listed above by cutting off their power. Which has the same result as cutting off the power to each peripheral with a physical switch. This implementation is very secure since the firmware that determines whether a peripheral gets power is not a part of the Pinebook Pro’s operating system. So the power state value for each peripheral cannot be overridden or accessed from the operating system. The power state setting for each peripheral is stored across reboots inside the keyboard's firmware flash memory.

== Trackpad ==
The trackpad is a reasonable size, has a matte finish that that your finger can slide along easily, and two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality.
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater). A fork with more recent changes is also available (https://github.com/jackhumbert/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater) and may want to be considered instead while feature parity is different.

'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.'''

Before you start:

Please refer to original documentation for details.

Your Pinebook Pro should be either fully charged or, preferably, running of mains. This utility will be writing chips on the keyboard and trackpad, so a loss of power during any stage of the update can result in irrecoverable damage to your trackpad or keyboard.

The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.

There are two keyboard versions of the Pinebook Pro, ISO and ANSI. You need to know which model you have prior to running the updater.
FW update steps for both models are listed below.

What you will need:

*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power
*Connection to WiFi
*An external USB keyboard & mouse. Or access to the Pinebebook Pro via SSH

'''ISO Model'''

From the terminal command line:

<pre>
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd
make
</pre>

Step 1
<pre>
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-1 iso
sudo reboot
</pre>

Step 2 (after reboot)
<pre>
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-2 iso
sudo reboot
</pre>

----

'''ANSI Model'''

*<b>NOTE:</b> Running step-1 on the ansi keyboard model will make the keyboard and trackpad inaccessible until step-2 is run, so an external keyboard must be connected to complete the update on this model!

From the terminal command line:

<pre>
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd
make
</pre>

Step 1
<pre>
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-1 ansi
sudo reboot
</pre>

Step 2 (after reboot)
<pre>
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-2 ansi
sudo reboot
</pre>
When done, if some of the keys produce in-correct characters, please check your OSes' language settings. For ANSI users, the default OS shipped with English UK as the default language. You can change it to English US if desired.

=== X-Windows & trackpad settings ===
Some forum members have found that an adjustment to X-Windows will allow finer motion in the trackpad. If you use the '''Synaptic''' mouse/trackpad driver use this command to make the change live;
<pre>synclient MinSpeed=0.25</pre>
You may experiment with different settings, but 0.25 was tested as helping noticably.<br>
<br>
To make the change persist across reboots, change the file <code>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</code> similar to below;
<pre> Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.25"
EndSection</pre>
The line <code>Option "MinSpeed" "0.25"</code> is the change.<br>
<br>
Another forum user built on the above settings a little, and have found these to be very good:
<pre>synclient MinSpeed=0.25
synclient FingerLow=30
synclient PalmDetect=1
synclient VertScrollDelta=64
synclient HorizScrollDelta=64</pre>

<code>FingerLow</code> has the same value as 'FingerHigh' in one config (30). It is believed to help reduce mouse movement as you lift your finger, but it's not sure if synaptic works like this.
You may find this config to be comfortable for daily use.
<br>

The <code>right mouse click</code> is emulated by tapping with two fingers on the trackpad. If you feel that this is not very responsive you can try this value:
<pre> synclient MaxTapTime=250 </pre>.
<br>

== Power Supply ==
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C

== LEDs ==
In total there are four LEDs on the Pinebook Pro, three of which are placed in the top left side of the keyboard, and one near the barrel-port:

:1. The red LED next to the barrel-port indicates charging. It will illuminate when mains power is supplied to the Pinebook Pro from either the standard power supply unit or a USB-C smartphone charger.

:2. The power indicator LED on the Pinebook Pro supports three different colours: green, amber and red. It is also capable of flashing/blinking to indicate activity. In the default Debian with MATE build, green LED means power and red means suspend (amber is unused).

:3. The Num lock, green LED.

:4. The Caps lock, green LED.

(The Num and Caps lock LEDs have a secondary function. When the privacy switches get activated they blink to confirm that switch has been activated.)

== Webcam ==
* Streaming video resolutions supported, (un-compressed):
** 320 x 240
** 640 x 480
** 800 x 600
** 1280 x 720
** 1600 x 1200
* Still frame resolutions supported:
** 160 x 120
** 176 x 144
** 320 x 240
** 352 x 288
** 640 x 480
** 800 x 600
** 1280 x 720
** 1600 x 1200
* Some people test with the application Cheese
WIP

== Microphones ==
While it has been said that some Pinebook Pro units contain only one microphone despite having two labeled microphone holes on the outer casing, other units do indeed contain two microphones. It is presently unclear which batches have either configuration; units from the initial community batch of 1000 units (following the initial 100) are believed to contain two, populating both labeled holes.

The wires leading to both microphones connect to the mainboard with a small white plastic connector, located directly adjacent to the ribbon cable attachment point for the keyboard interface.

'''Microphones not working?'''

If pavucontrol input doesn't show microphone activity try the [[Pinebook_Pro#Privacy_Switches]]; once that is set to on do the below; if that still hasn't fixed it you may want to check that the microphone connector is plugged in (see the [[Pinebook_Pro#Technical_Reference]]).

<pre>
run alsamixer from the command line > hit F6 and select the es8316 > hit F4 to get to the capture screen > select the bar labeled ADC >
> increase the gain to 0dB > change the audio profile in pavucontrol to another with input

Additionally:
you may want to modify ADC PGA to get the levels to where you want them
</pre>

== Bluetooth and WiFi ==
[[File:PinebookPro_WirelessIC_Location.jpg|400px|thumb|right|The Pinebook Pro's AP6256 wireless module]]
===Hardware Overview===
The Pinebook Pro contains an AMPAK AP6256 wireless module to provide Wi-Fi (compliant to IEEE 802.11ac) and Bluetooth (compliant to Bluetooth SIG revision 5.0). The module contains a Broadcom transceiver IC, believed to be the BCM43456, as well as the support electronics needed to allow the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modes to share a single antenna.

The wireless module interfaces with the Pinebook Pro’s system-on-chip using a combination of three interfaces: Bluetooth functionality is operated by serial UART and PCM, while the Wi-Fi component uses SDIO. It is unknown if the module’s Bluetooth capabilites are usable under operating systems that do not support SDIO.

The module’s RF antenna pin is exposed on the mainboard via a standard Hirose U.FL connector, where a coaxial feedline links it to a flexible adhesive antenna situated near the upper right corner of the Pinebook Pro’s battery. As the RF connector is fragile and easily damaged, it should be handled carefully during connection and disconnection, and should not be reconnected frequently.

===Issues===
Problems have been reported with the Wi-Fi transceiver’s reliability during extended periods of high throughput, especially on the 2.4 GHz band. While the cause of this has yet to be determined, switching to the 5 GHz band may improve stability.

Since the Bluetooth transceiver shares both its spectrum and antenna with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, simultaneous use of these modes may cause interference, especially when listening to audio over Bluetooth. If Bluetooth audio cuts out frequently, switching to the 5 GHz band – or deactivating Wi-Fi – may help.

===Wi-Fi Capabilities===
Wi-Fi on the Pinebook Pro is capable of reaching a maximum data transfer rate of approximately 433 megabits per second, using one spatial stream. The transceiver does not support multiple spatial streams or 160-MHz channel bandwidths.

The Wi-Fi transceiver supports the lower thirteen standard channels on the 2.4 GHz band, using a bandwidth of 20 MHz. At least twenty-four channels are supported on the 5 GHz band, spanning frequencies from 5180 to 5320 MHz, 5500 to 5720 MHz, and 5745 to 5825 MHz, with bandwidths of 20, 40, or 80 MHz.

Maximum reception sensitivity for both bands is approximately -92 dBm. The receiver can tolerate input intensities of no more than -20 dBm on the 2.4 GHz band, and no more than -30 dBm on the 5 GHz band. Maximum transmission power is approximately +15 dBm for either band, falling further to approximately +10 dBm at higher data transfer rates on the 5 GHz band.

With current available drivers and firmware, the Wi-Fi interface supports infrastructure, ad-hoc, and access-point modes with satisfactory reliability. Monitor mode is not presently supported. Wi-Fi Direct features may be available, but it is unclear how to make use of them under Linux.

Be aware that Linux userspace utilities, such as <code>iw</code>, may report inaccurate information about the capabilities of wireless devices. Parameter values derived from vendor datasheets, or direct testing, should be preferred to the outputs of hardware-querying tools.

===Bluetooth Capabilities===
Bluetooth data transfer speeds have an indicated maximum of 3 megabits per second, but it is unclear what practical data rates can be expected. Audio streaming over Bluetooth is functioning normally, as is networking. Bluetooth Low-Energy functions, such as interacting with Bluetooth beacons, have not yet been tested conclusively.

The Bluetooth transceiver supports all 79 channel allocations, spanning frequencies from 2402 MHz to 2480 MHz. Reception sensitivity is approximately -85 dBm, with a maximum tolerable reception intensity of -20 dBm. Bluetooth transmission power is limited to +10 dBm.

===Disabling Bluetooth===
<pre>
#disable bluetooth once
sudo rfkill block bluetooth &&

#confirm
rfkill
</pre>

<pre>
#disable bluetooth on boot**
sudo systemctl enable rfkill-block@bluetooth
</pre>

<nowiki>**This does not do what one might want on certain distros, Manjaro XFCE for example. Try the below.</nowiki>

<pre>
right click on the bluetooth panel icon > select 'plugins' > PowerManager > configuration > deselect the auto power on option
</pre>

== LCD Panel ==
* Model: BOE NV140FHM-N49
* 14.0" (35.56cm) diagonal size
* 1920x1080 resolution
* 60hz refresh rate
* IPS
* 1000:1 contrast
* 250nt brightness
* 63% sRGB coverage
* 6 bit colour
* 30 pin eDP connection

Some people have tested hardware video decode using the following;
<pre>ffmpeg -benchmark -c:v h264_rkmpp -i file.mp4 -f null -</pre>

== External ports list ==
Here are a list of the external ports. See [[Pinebook_Pro#Expansion_Ports|Technical Reference - Expansion Ports]] for port specifications.
* Left side
** Barrel jack for power, (with LED)
** USB 3, Type A
** USB 3, Type C
* Right side
** USB 2, Type A
** Standard headset jack
** MicroSD card slot

== Using the UART ==
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone jack UART wiring reference.
<br> Swapping the tx and rx around from this also works and is more traditional.
<br> See [http://files.pine64.org/doc/pinebook/guide/Pinebook_Earphone_Serial_Console_Developer_Guide.pdf this] official Pine64 .pdf.]]

UART output is enabled by flipping the UART switch to the ON position (item 9). To do so you need to remove the Pinebook Pro's bottom cover - please follow [https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Accessing_the_Internals_-_Disassembly_and_Reassembly proper disassembly and reassembly protocol]. The OFF position is towards the touchpad, the ON position is towards the display hinges.

With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. Please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R, or PL2303, which are sold in both 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU.

Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:

<code>
$ lsusb
</code>

you should find a line similar to this:

<code>
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter
</code>

You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.

The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.

Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).
Examples:

<code>
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000

picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000

minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code>

Old versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. <strike>The console function is activated by the Linux kernel. Thus, if you use a non-Pinebook Pro Linux distro and want the UART as a console, you have to manually enable it.</strike>

== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard). The optional NVMe M.2 adapter supports '''M''' & '''M'''+'''B''' keyed devices, in both 2242 & 2280 physical sizes, the most common ones available. In addition, 2230 & 2260 are also supported, though NVMe devices that use those sizes are rare.

Once you have fitted and tested your NVMe drive, please add a note to this page [[Pinebook_Pro_Hardware_Accessory_Compatibility]] to help build a list of tried and tested devices.

=== Installing the adapter ===
The V2.1-2019-0809 SSD adapter that shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.
(If necessary, it can be modified to work. There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8322&pid=52700#pid52700 an unofficial tutorial on the forums] describing these modifications.)

The updated SSD adapter, labeled V2-2019-1107, takes into account the prior problems with trackpad interference. New orders as of Feb. 22nd, 2020 will be the updated adapter.

Actual installation instructions are a work in progress.

=== Post NVMe install power limiting ===
Some NVMe SSDs allow reducing the maximum amount of power. Doing so may reduce the speed, but it may be needed in the Pinebook Pro to both improve reliability at lower battery levels. And to reduce power used, to maintain battery life.
Here are the commands to obtain and change the power settings. The package 'nvme-cli' is required to run these commands. The example shows how to find the available power states, and then sets it to the lowest, non-standby setting, (which is 3.8 watts for the device shown);
<pre>$ sudo nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0
NVME Identify Controller:
...
ps 0 : mp:9.00W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:0 rrl:0
rwt:0 rwl:0 idle_power:- active_power:-
ps 1 : mp:4.60W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:1 rrl:1
rwt:1 rwl:1 idle_power:- active_power:-
ps 2 : mp:3.80W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:2 rrl:2
rwt:2 rwl:2 idle_power:- active_power:-
ps 3 : mp:0.0450W non-operational enlat:2000 exlat:2000 rrt:3 rrl:3
rwt:3 rwl:3 idle_power:- active_power:-
ps 4 : mp:0.0040W non-operational enlat:6000 exlat:8000 rrt:4 rrl:4
rwt:4 rwl:4 idle_power:- active_power:-

$ sudo nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 2
get-feature:0x2 (Power Management), Current value:00000000
$ sudo nvme set-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 2 -v 2 -s
set-feature:02 (Power Management), value:0x000002</pre>
Some NVMe SSDs don't appear to allow saving the setting with "-s" option. In those cases, leave off the "-s" and use a startup script to set the non-default power state at boot.<br>
If you want to test performance without saving the new power setting semi-permanantly, then leave off the "-s" option.<br/>
<br/>
There is another power saving feature for NVMes, APST, (Autonomous Power State Transitions). This performs the power saving & transitions based on usage. To check if you have a NVMe SSD with this feature;
<pre>$ sudo nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0</pre>
Information for this feature, (on a Pinebook Pro), is a work in progress.

=== Using as data drive ===
As long as the kernel in use has both the PCIe and NVMe drivers, you should be able to use a NVMe drive as a data drive. It can automatically mount when booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to Linux, FreeBSD, and Chromium, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android requires testing.

=== Using as OS root drive ===
The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order. However, using the [https://github.com/mrfixit2001/updates_repo/blob/v1.1/pinebook/filesystem/mrfixit_update.sh U-Boot update script] from the mrfixit2001 Debian or [https://pastebin.com/raw/EeK074XB Arglebargle's modified script], and [https://github.com/pcm720/rockchip-u-boot/releases the modified u-boot images] provided by forum user pcm720, you can now add support to boot from an NVMe drive. Binary images are useable with SD, eMMC, and [[Pinebook_Pro_SPI|SPI flash]]. For OS images using the mainline kernel, there are a few variants of U-Boot available that also support NVMe as the OS drive. Though these may require writing the U-Boot to the SPI flash for proper use of the NVMe as the OS drive.

The current boot order, per last testing, for this modified U-Boot is:
*MicroSD
*eMMC
*NVMe

For more information, please refer to [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8439&pid=53764#pid53764 the forum post.]

It is also possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Currently, it is necessary to have the U-Boot code on an eMMC or SD card. (A forum member [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8439 posted here] about using a modified version of U-Boot with NVMe drivers, that uses <code>/boot</code> and <code>/</code> off the NVMe drive. So this may change in the future.)

Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].

== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==
=== Bypass Cables ===
The mainboard features two (disconnected by default) bypass cables that are only to be used with the battery disconnected. The female (10) male (6) ends of the bypass cables can be connected to provide power to the mainboard if you need to run the laptop without a battery. Please refer to this [http://files.pine64.org/doc/PinebookPro/PinebookPro_Engineering_Notice.pdf engineering notice].

'''Note that despite the bypass cable being a two conductor cable, it is only used as one. Both wires being soldered together on either side is normal!'''

WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.

== Using the SPI flash device ==
The Pinebook Pro comes with a 128Mbit, (16MByte), flash device suitable for initial boot target, to store the bootloader. The SoC used on the Pinebook Pro boots from this SPI flash device first, before eMMC or SD card. At present, April 19, 2020, the Pinebook Pros ship without anything programmed in the SPI flash device. So the SoC moves on to the next potential boot device, the eMMC. ARM/ARM64 computers do not have a standardized BIOS, yet.

Here is some information on using the SPI flash device:

* You need the kernel built with SPI flash device support, which will supply a device similar to:<br><br><code>/dev/mtd0</code><br><br>
* The Linux package below, will need to be available:<br><br><code>mtd-utils</code><br><br>
* You can then use this program from the package to write the SPI device:<br><br><code>flashcp <filename> /dev/mtd0</code><br><br>

Even if you need to recover from a defective bootloader written to the SPI flash, you can simply short pin 6 of the SPI flash to GND and boot. This will render the SoC bootrom unable to read from the SPI flash and have it fall back to reading the bootloader from other boot media like the eMMC or Micro SD card.

The procedures described above are a lot less risky than attaching an external SPI flasher and do not require any additional hardware.<br>
<br>
At present, April 19th, 2020, there is no good bootloader image to flash into the SPI flash device. This is expected to change, as there are people working on issue.

Details on how to get the most out of a Pinebook Pro & its RK3399 SoC.

== Customizing Pinebook Pro's factory OS ==
Here are some hints on what you can do to customize the Pinebook Pro's factory image (aka [https://github.com/mrfixit2001/debian_desktop mrfixit2001 debian build])

=== Initial user changes, password, name, etc ===
When you first get your Pinebook Pro, you should consider setting strong passwords and making the default account your own.

* Reboot (this is just to ensure all background processes belong to the user are not running... there are other ways to achieve this but this way is easy)
* Once the machine reboots press Alt-Ctrl-F1 to bring up a text terminal
* Login as root (login: root, password: root)
* Set a strong password for the root user using the following command and it's prompts:
<pre># passwd (and follow prompts)</pre>
* Rename the rock user to your prefered username (replace myself with whatever you like):
<pre># usermod -l myself -d /home/myself -m rock</pre>
* Rename the rock group to match your preferred username:
<pre># groupmod -n myself rock</pre>
* Put your name in the account, (replace "John A Doe" with your name):
<pre># chfn -f "John A Doe" myself</pre>
* Set a strong password for the normal user:
<pre># passwd myself</pre>
* Log out of the text terminal:
<pre># logout</pre>
* Press Alt-Ctrl-F7 to go back to the login screen and then login as the normal user
* Open text terminal to fix login error: "Configured directory for incoming files does not exist";
<pre>$ blueman-services</pre>
Select "Transfer" tab and set "Incoming Folder" to myself
OR
If adduser is in distro, this is MUCH easier
sudo adduser $USER ,, fill out requested data
Then,, sudo adduser $USER $GROUP,,, 1 group at a time
To see which groups to add,,, id $USER, id rock

=== Changing the default hostname ===
Debian 9 has a command to allow you to change the hostname. You can see the current settings using;
<pre>> sudo hostnamectl
Static hostname: Debian-Desktop
Icon name: computer
Machine ID: dccbddccbdccbdccbdccbdccbdccbccb
Boot ID: ea99ea99ea99ea99ea99ea99ea99ea99
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)
Kernel: Linux 4.4.210
Architecture: arm64</pre>
To change, use this, (with "My_Hostname" used as the example);
<pre>> sudo hostnamectl set-hostname My_Hostname</pre>
Whence done, you can re-verify using the first example.

Then you should backup and edit your <code>/etc/hosts</code> entry's name;
<pre>> sudo cp -p /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.`date +%Y%m%d`
> sudo vi /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 My_Hostname
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
127.0.1.1 linaro-alip</pre>

=== Disable Chromium browser's prompt for passphrase & password storage ===

Perform the following steps:

* On the tool bar, hover over the Chromium icon
* Using the right mouse button, select '''Properties'''
* In the '''Command:''' line section, add <code>--password-store=basic</code> before the <code>%U</code>
* Use the '''x Close''' button to save the change
This will of course, use basic password storage, meaning any saved passwords are not encrypted. Perfectly fine if you never use password storage.

=== Changing the boot splash picture ===

The default boot splash picture can be replaced using the following instructions:

* Install '''ImageMagick''' which will do the conversion
<pre>$ sudo apt-get install imagemagick</pre>
* Create a 1920 x 1080 picture. For the best results, use a PNG image (It supports lossless compression).
* From the directory in which your new image is stored run the following commands
* Convert your image to the bootsplash raw format using imagemagick convert.
<pre>$ convert yoursplashimage.png -separate +channel -swap 0,2 -combine -colorspace sRGB RGBO:splash.fb</pre>
* Create a backup copy of your current splash screen
<pre>$ sudo cp /usr/share/backgrounds/splash.fb /usr/share/backgrounds/splash_original.fb</pre>
* Copy your new splash screen into place
<pre>$ sudo cp splash.fb /usr/share/backgrounds/splash.fb</pre>
* Set the correct permissions on the splash.fb file
<pre>$ sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/backgrounds/splash.fb</pre>
* If you do not want to see kernel console text messages, make sure you don't have '''Plymouth''' installed

=== Enabling text boot time messages ===

By default most Linux distros have a boot screen with a picture. To see all the messages, use the following;

* Backup and edit the U-Boot configuration file:
<pre>cp -p /etc/default/u-boot /etc/default/u-boot.`date +%Y%m%d`
chmod a-w /etc/default/u-boot.`date +%Y%m%d`
vi /etc/default/u-boot</pre>
Remove the '''quiet''' and '''splash''' parameters. Leave everything else alone.
* Update the U-Boot configuration:
<pre>u-boot-update</pre>
* Test and verify you get what you think you should be seeing.

== Improving readability ==

Some people find that a 14" LCD screen with 1080p, (1920 x 1080), has text and icons a bit too small. There are things you can do to make the screen easier to use & read.<br>
* Increase the font size
* Use a font with more pronounce features
* Increase the various window manager sizes, (like increase the height of the tool bar)
* Change the color scheme to be easier on the eyes, (even though it may not be bigger, proper contrast can help usability)
* Change the window manager's decorations, (like using larger icons)
* Use a workspace manager, (so one application per workspace)
* When at home or office, use an external monitor
* Changing the X-Window's DPI, (Dot's Per Inch), can help too
<br>
However, do not change the resolution of the LCD screen, otherwise you may end up with a blank / black screen. If that happens, see this trouble shooting section for the fix:<br>
[[Pinebook_Pro#After_changing_builtin_LCD_resolution.2C_blank_screen|Blank screen after changing builtin LCD resolution]]

== Chromium tweaks ==

=== Flags ===

From the [https://github.com/mrfixit2001/updates_repo/blob/v1.8/pinebook/filesystem/default official Debian image]:

<pre>
--disable-low-res-tiling \
--num-raster-threads=6 \
--profiler-timing=0 \
--disable-composited-antialiasing \
--test-type \
--show-component-extension-options \
--ignore-gpu-blacklist \
--use-gl=egl \
--ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/chromium-browser/pepper/libpepflashplayer.so \
--ppapi-flash-version=32.0.0.255 \
--enable-pinch \
--flag-switches-begin \
--enable-gpu-rasterization \
--enable-oop-rasterization \
--flag-switches-end
</pre>

== GVIM has performance issue ==
It appears that using GTK3 can cause very slow scolling, while VIM in a terminal window works fine.<br/>
Simply revert back to using GTK2, (how to do so, is somewhat Linux distro specific).

== Kernel options ==
Here are some Pinebook Pro & its RK3399 SoC Linux specific options. If kernel version, (or version range specific), it should list that information in the description.

To see if a specific feature is enabled in the current kernel, you can use something like this;

<pre>
$ zgrep -i rockchip_pcie /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_PCIE_DMA_OBJ is not set
CONFIG_PHY_ROCKCHIP_PCIE=m
</pre>
If it's listed as <code>=m</code>, then it's a module. You can see if the module is loaded with;
<pre>
$ lsmod | grep -i rockchip_pcie
phy_rockchip_pcie 16384 0
</pre>
Note modules are not loaded until needed. Thus, we sometimes check the kernel configuration instead to see if a feature is configured first, then see if it's a module.

=== Hardware video decoding ===
Here is a method to check for hardware video decoding by the VPU. There are special Linux kernel modules that perform this function.<br>
The default Debian uses Rockchip supplied kernel module <code>rk-vcodec</code>. To check, something like this can be used;
<pre>
$ lsmod | grep rk-vcodec
or
$ zgrep RK_VCODEC /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_RK_VCODEC=y
</pre>
Note that in the above example, the Rockchip video CODEC is not built as a module, but included into the kernel. Thus, it does not show up in the list modules check.<br>
<br>
Later kernels may use a different option in the configuration as below;
<pre>
$ zgrep HANTRO /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_VIDEO_HANTRO=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_HANTRO_ROCKCHIP=y
</pre>

= Troubleshooting guide =
Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===
* Some Pinebook Pros came from the factory with the eMMC switch in the disabled position. It should be switched towards the back / hinge to enable the eMMC.<br>
* The eMMC may have come loose during shipment. [https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Accessing_the_Internals_-_Disassembly_and_Reassembly Open] the back and verify that the eMMC is firmly seated.<br>
* You may want to try unplugging the SD card daughterboard ribbon cable and see if it powers on (remove the battery and peel off a bit of the tape before unplugging it to avoid damage). If it does, try reseating it on both sides. It might have come loose during shipping.
* It's possible that your eMMC is empty from the factory. Simply create a bootable SD card and see if your Pinebook Pro boots. If so, you can then write an OS image to the eMMC.

=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===
* This may happen if you meant to toggle the UART/Headphone switch (9) towards touchpad for headphone use and instead you toggled the eMMC enable/disable switch (24).
* After reenabling eMMC by toggling switch (24) towards hinge, if Pinebook Pro does not turn on then press the RESET button (28). It is clearly marked 'reset' on the PCB board.

=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after removing and replacing EMI shielding ===
* Closely inspect that the shielding is firmly seated in the clips on all sides. You can be seated in the clips on one axis, and have missed on an another axis.

=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===
* If you're using the UART cable sold on the Pine Store, you may want to see if it boots after you disconnect it. Some users report that custom-made cables based on FTDI UART adapters do not cause this issue.
* Make sure your USB to serial UART device is 3.3v. Many are 5v and some even +-12v. Pinebook Pro's only support 3.3v and may act eratically when using higher voltage. Further, higher voltage could permananetly damage the Pinebook Pro's SoC.

=== WiFi issues ===
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]
* Next, you may have to modify the <code>/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf</code> as root user, and replace <code>managed=false</code> with <code>managed=true</code>. Then reboot.
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it might be due to WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. (Power management can be turned off via command line with <code>iw dev wlan0 set power_save off</code> or <code>iwconfig wlan0 power off</code>, although it is not persistent through re-boot.)
* For connections that drop under load on the default Debian, remove <code>iwconfig wlan0 power off</code> in the file <code>/etc/rc.local</code>.
* If WiFi is un-usable or often crashes when using an alternate OS, then it might because its WiFi firmware is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro. Try the latest firmware patch from [https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm]
* After re-enabling WiFi via the privacy switch, you have to reboot to restore function. There is a work around for the default Debian, (and may work with others);
        <code>sudo tee /sys/bus/platform/drivers/dwmmc_rockchip/{un,}bind <<< 'fe310000.dwmmc'</code>

=== Bluetooth issues ===
* When connecting a Bluetooth device, such as a Bluetooth mouse, it does not automatically re-connect on re-boot. In the Bluetooth connection GUI, there is a yellow star for re-connect on boot. Use that button to enable a persistent connection. It can be changed back later.
* Bluetooth-attached speakers or headset require the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package. If not already installed, it can be installed with a package manager or with:<br>
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre>
* When using Bluetooth-attached speakers or headset and 2.4Ghz WiFi at the same time, you may experience stuttering of the audio. One solution is to use 5Ghz WiFi if you can. Or you may try using a different 2.4Ghz channel, perhaps channel 1 or the top channel, (11 in the USA, or 13/14 in some other countries).

=== Sound issues ===
* Many reports of no sound are due to the OS, incorrect settings, or other software problems (eg. PulseAudio). So first test to see if it is a software or hardware problem, by trying another OS via SD card. (For example, if Debian is installed on the eMMC, try Ubuntu on SD.)
* If you cannot get sound from the headphone jack, but can get sound from the speakers, then the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the position of the switch. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See the parts layout for the location and correct position of the switch.
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it is possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, see if they work.
* See [https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/community/pinebookpro-post-install/blob/master/asound.state manjaro-arm/pinebookpro-post-install /var/lib/alsa/asound.state] for some ALSA tweaks.
* See [https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/community/pinebookpro-audio manjaro-arm/pinebookpro-audio] for how to handle 3.5mm jack plug/unplug events with ACPID.
* Serveral users have reported that one internal speaker had reversed polarity. Thus, sound from the speakers is like an echo effect.
** Their is a software fix using alsamixer and then enable either "R invert" or "L invert", however, now the headphones have incorrect audio.
** The permanent fix is to re-wire one speaker, though this requires soldering small wires.

=== USB docks & USB C alternate mode video ===
The Pinebook Pro uses the RK3399 SoC (System on a Chip). It supports a video pass through mode on the USB C port using DisplayPort alternate mode. This DisplayPort output comes from the same GPU used to display the built-in LCD.

Here are some selection criteria for successfully using the USB C alternate mode for video:
* The device must use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort. Not USB C alternate mode HDMI, or other.
* The device can have a HDMI, DVI, or VGA connector, if it uses an active translater.
* If USB 3 is also desired from a USB dock, the maximum resolution, frame rate and pixel depth is reduced to half the bandwidth. For example, 4K @ 30hz instead of 60hz.
* USB docks that also use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort will always have USB 2 available, (480Mbps, half-duplex).

=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===
This issue occurs when your thumb or edge of the palm makes contact with left or right tip of the trackpad when you type. This is due to the palm rejection firmware being too forceful. Instead of only disabling the trackpad, so your cursor does not move all over the screen, it disables both the trackpad and the keyboard.

Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.

A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.

=== Key Mapping ===
* See this [https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/community/pinebookpro-post-install/blob/master/10-usb-kbd.hwdb /etc/udev/hwdb.d/10-usb-kbd.hwdb] for some key mapping tweaks

=== Pinebook Pro gets stuck after first reboot in Trackpad Firmware Update ===
This refers to the firmware update shown here:
https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater#update-all-firmwares
* If the system is not responding after the 1st reboot, it's might be easiest to do a system restore, and follow up by running the second step of the trackpad firmware update.
* System restore https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8229
* Firmware update https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater#update-all-firmwares

=== ANSI Fn + F keys wrong for F9, F10, F11 and F12 ===
There appears to be a minor firmware issue for ANSI keyboard models of the Pinebook Pro. Some discussion and fixes have been proposed;

* Discussion thread [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8744&pid=57678#pid57678 Fn + F keys screwy for F9, F10, F11 and F12]
* Proposed fix [https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater/issues/14#issuecomment-576825396 (ANSI) Fn + F(9-12) has wrong assignment after firmware update #14]
 <br>

=== After changing builtin LCD resolution, blank screen ===
Some people find that the text or icons are too small, so they attempt to change the resolution of the built-in display. Afterwards, the display is blank.<br>
Use the following to fix when logged into a text console as yourself, (Control-Alt-F1 through F6). After listing the resolutions, select the native resolution, (1920x1080 aka 1080p).
<pre>export DISPLAY=:0.0
xrandr -q
xrandr -s [resolution]</pre>
Once your resolution is restored, try using the Tweak app to set scaling, instead.<br>
<br>
If the above fix did not work, you can try this:
* Using a text console, (Control-Alt-F1), login with your normal user ID
* Edit the file <code>nano ~/.config/monitors.xml</code>
* Change the "width" value to "1920"
* Change the "height" value to "1080"
* If there is more than one monitor configuration listed, edit that one too.<br>Be careful to make no other changes. If needed, exit without saving and re-edit.
* Save the file and exit.
* Login using the GUI and test
* If you are still loggied in via the GUI, you will have to reboot using <code>sudo shutdown -r now</code><br>After the reboot, you should be able to login to the GUI login and have the resolution back to normal.
When you have restored usability to your Pinebook Pro's graphical screen, see this section on improving readability and usability:<br>
[[Pinebook_Pro#Improving_readability|Improving readability]]

=== Cracks in the plastic ===
There have been multiple reports of cracks in the plastic keyboard & trackpad part of the case. These are generally near here;
* Hinges
* USB ports
* Top side, around the corners
This seems to apply to the first batches in 2019. Later versions of the keyboard & trackpad have used better plastic. With replacements now in the Pine64 Store, it's possible to simply order a replacement.<br>
<br>
There have been a few reports of cracks in the plastic around the LCD display, but these appear to be less common. There are replacement LCDs with bezel available in the Pine64 Store.

== Accessing the Internals - Disassembly and Reassembly ==
[[File:Standoffs.png|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Screw stand-offs correct placement and location]]

'''WARNING:''' Do not open the laptop by lifting the lid while the Pinebook Pro bottom cover is removed - this can cause structural damage to the hinges and/or other plastic components of the chassis such as the IO port cut-outs.

'''WARNING:''' When removing the back cover plate, use care if sliding fingertips between back cover plate and palm rest assembly. The back cover plate edges are sharp.

When disassembling the laptop make sure that it is powered off and folded closed. To remove the bottom cover of the Pinebook Pro, first remove the ten (10) Phillips head screws that hold the bottom section of the laptop in place. Remove the cover from the back where the hinges are situated by lifting it up and away from the rest of the chassis.

During reassembly, make sure that the back-screw standoffs are in place and seated correctly. To reassemble the Pinebook Pro, slide the bottom section into place so it meets the front lip of the keyboard section. Secure the front section (where the trackpad is located) in place using the short screws in the front left and right corners. Then proceed to pop in the bottom panel into place. Secure the bottom section (where hinges are located) by screwing in the left and right corners. Then screw in the remaining screws and run your finger though the rim on the chassis to make sure its fitted correctly. Note that the front uses the remaining 2 short screws.

NOTE: The screws are small and should only be finger tight. Too much force will strip the threads. If after installing screws the back cover plate has not seated properly on one side, open the display and hold the base on either side of the keyboard and gently flex the base with both hands in opposing directions. Once the side pops further in, then recheck the screws on that side. If it does not pop back in, just let it be.

NOTE: a basic 3d model to print replacement back-screw standoffs is available on Thingiverse [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4226648] pending release of something more definitive

== Pinebook Pro Internal Layout ==
=== Main chips ===
* RK3399 system-on-chip (1)
* LPDDR4 SDRAM (21)
* SPI NOR flash memory (29)
* eMMC flash memory (26)
* WiFi/BT module (27)

=== Mainboard Switches and Buttons ===
There are two switches on the main board: disabling the eMMC (24), and enabling UART (9) via headphone jack.

The Reset and Recovery buttons (28): the reset button performs an immediate reset of the laptop. The Recovery button is used to place the device in maskrom mode; this mode allows flashing eMMC using Rockchip tools (e.g. rkflashtools).

== Bootable Storage ==
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C. The boot order of the hard-coded ROM of its RK3399 SoC is: SPI NOR, eMMC, SD, USB OTG.

At this time, the Pinebook Pro ships with a Debian + MATE build with [https://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/ uboot] on the eMMC. Its boot order is: SD, then eMMC. Booting off USB storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.

(An update has been pushed for the default Debian + MATE build that improves compatibility with booting other OSs from an SD card. In order to update, fully charge the battery, establish an internet connection, click the update icon in the toolbar, and then reboot your Pinebook Pro. Please see [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=7830 this log] for details.)

Please note that PCIe, the interface used for NVMe SSD on the Pinebook Pro, is not bootable on the RK3399 and therefore is not a part of the boot hierarchy. It is possible to run the desired OS from NVMe by pointing extlinux on the eMMC to rootfs on the SSD. This requires uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, and extlinux.conf
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.

=== eMMC information ===
The eMMC appears to be hot-pluggable. This can be useful if trying to recover data or a broken install. Best practice is probably to turn the eMMC switch to off position before changing modules.

The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas

Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.

If the eMMC module is enabled after boot from an SD card, you can detect this change with the following command:
<pre>
echo 'fe330000.sdhci' | tee /sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/unbind
echo 'fe330000.sdhci' | tee /sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/bind
</pre>

=== Boot sequence details ===
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768, (sector 64 if using 512 byte sectors). This is where U-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.

PinePhone Software Releases

2020-04-08T03:58:40Z

Fire219: formatting fix (oops)

This page is intended to help you install a software release on your [[PinePhone]]. It also provides details about all available releases as well as links to further resources.

= General instructions =

Releases are first installed to a Micro SD card. Choose a card with fast I/O (of small files) for the best performance. See [[#Other Resources]] for performance tests of various SD cards.

This section has generic installation instructions. Please see the [[#Software Releases]] section for specific installation instructions for each distribution.

== Boot priority ==

The default PinePhone boot priority is first the SD card and then the eMMC so inserting your own SD card with your preferred release will result in the phone booting your image.

User ''megi'' has demonstrated his multi-boot development [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL1GREqoqx8 on YouTube,] see Other Resouces at the bottom of this page for a link to his notes.

== Preparation of SD card ==
# Download your chosen image from the options below
# Extract the compressed file
# Write the image to your SD card
# Plug SD card into phone
# Boot phone
If you need step-by-step instructions for writing an image to an SD card, check [[NOOB#Step-by-Step_Instructions_to_Flashing_MicroSD_Cards]] then return to this page.

== Installation to eMMC (Optional) ==

=== Method Using Factory Installed Tools ===

The initial OS you get with your phone has the option to flash an image on SD card to eMMC.

# Copy (not flash) the image file to a formatted SD card.
# Insert SD card into powered-off phone.
# Turn on phone and select option to install to eMMC.

=== Safe & Easy Method ===

[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9444 Jumpdrive thread]

# download and extract [https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases the Jumpdrive image]
# flash the Jumpdrive image to a SD card
# boot from the SD card
# connect the PinePhone to your computer using USB-A -> USB-C cable.
# flash the exposed (mounted) PinePhone drive with a chosen OS image as you'd flash any SD card, and resize partitions (optional, see below)
# disconnect the PinePhone from your PC, power it down and remove the Jumpdrive SD card
# boot into your OS of choice on eMMC

The Jumpdrive image is smaller than 50MB. You can keep an SD card specifically for using Jumpdrive, and there are 64MB micro SD cards sold cheaply that will suffice.

=== Safe With No Extra Tools, But Slower ===

# Prepare a formatted SD card, flash desired OS to the SD card, and (optionally) resize the partition (see below)
# Insert SD card and boot the phone
# Open terminal and <code>git clone [url]</code> your desired project OR: Open web browser and download the desired OS image file.
# Build the OS (Optional)
# Flash the resulting image file you got by downloading or by building, to eMMC, using <code>dd if=/dev/mmcblkX of=/dev/mmcblkY bs=1M</code> where X is the number label of the SD card, and Y is the number label of the eMMC. Use the command ''lsblk'' to check your devices: typically with the current kernel the SD card is /dev/mmcblk0 and the eMMC is /dev/mmcblk2 but as always with ''dd'' be extremely cautious to get the devices correct. Then, resize partition to fill up entire disk (see below).
# Turn off phone, remove SD card. Turn on phone.

=== Risky Method ===

Warning: This copies a mounted filesystem, which can lead to instability, erratic behavior, and data corruption. Do not use long term.

# Prepare a new SD card, flash desired OS to the SD card
# Boot the phone with your new SD card image
# Within the booted OS, flash/clone the running OS to eMMC, e.g. using dd. It will take about 15 minutes (depending on the speed of your card), and in the end it may show an error about not enough space - just ignore it.
# Turn off phone, take out SD card, and try booting the phone which should load up the new OS from eMMC.
# Open terminal and resize partition to fill up entire disk (see below).

== Resize partition to fit disk space ==

Once you've flashed the OS to your SD card or eMMC storage, you may also need to expand the partition to fill all the available space.

=== Resize SD card's partition using computer ===

For SD cards, insert the SD card and resize the partitions through the computer. For eMMC, insert the phone cable and use Jumpdrive to access the eMMC directly, and resize the partition after flashing the image.

Using Growpart:

growpart /dev/sdX 1
resize2fs /dev/sdX 1

Locate growpart (<code>apt-cache search growpart</code> and install the package in the search results) and run:
growpart /dev/mmcblkX Y
resize2fs /dev/mmcblkXpY
where X is the storage device and Y is the partition number (viewable from lsblk).

If you get any errors about missing or unknown commands, use apt-cache search to find and install the needed software. Also don't forget to use sudo.

Using Parted:

Parted's interactive mode and resize work well together. Do this before you put your SD card into the PinePhone for the first time for best results.

sudo parted /dev/<your_sd_card_device>
(parted) resizepart 2 100%
(parted) quit
sudo resize /dev/<the_second_sd_card_PARTITION>

=== Resize from within PinePhone: ===

eMMC: you would need to resize the partition on eMMC (flashed with the operating system) by booting another image from the SD card: that way, the eMMC will be unmounted. It is '''not recommended''' to resize eMMC while booted from eMMC! Resizing a currently mounted partition can have weird results.

SD card: It is generally not possible to boot from eMMC to partition the unmounted SD card, because of the boot order -- you would have to write the image to the empty SD card first, then resize partition, all without rebooting. It is also '''not recommended''' to resize the SD card while booted from SD card! Resizing a currently mounted partition can have weird results.

== Installing Any ARM64 Distribution ==
'''Warning:''' Distributions not on this page may not even boot after you follow this section. In the best case, they will be barely usable. This is more for fun, or if you would like to port a new distro to the PinePhone.

'''Note:''' This section uses megi's kernel releases, and not the official ones from PINE64. While it is possible to use the official (and in the future, mainline) kernel, megi provides binary releases, which makes it very easy.

If you would like to see specific commands for how to complete these steps, see https://github.com/nikhiljha/pp-fedora-sdsetup (an example for Fedora) or https://xnux.eu/howtos/install-arch-linux-arm.html (an example for Arch Linux).

# Create a boot (from 4MiB to about 252MiB) and root (from 252 MiB to the end of the card) filesystem on the SD card.
# Format the boot partition with vfat, and the root partition with f2fs.
# Extract the root filesystem from your distro's ARM image into the root filesystem on the sd card. Do not copy the partition, copy the files (in archive mode: like rsync -ar).
# Edit /etc/fstab to match your partitions.
# Grab megi's kernel from https://xff.cz/kernels/ (you probably want 5.6).
# Follow the README instructions, which involves copying the kernel modules into the sd card rootfs and writing u-boot and the bootloader.

== Backlight ==
All current distributions do not have a good setup for the backlight at low brightness.
If configured too low, the backlight shuts down completely, but the screen is still displayed and usable in bright front-light.

Sailfish is one OS that initially uses automatic backlight control and the default setting makes the screen appear blank. When shining a bright light on the screen, you can still navigate the screen (and maybe the screen switches on temporarily due to the light sensor). This will make it possible for you to disable auto brightness in Settings, Display.

It is recommended that you log your bug reports in [https://gitlab.com/a-wai/debos-pinephone/issues/ the project's issue tracker.] As a general rule, issues with third-party apps (even the default ones) should be reported upstream. A Debian-PinePhone issue would be related to getting the hardware to work on the PinePhone, but if unsure where the issue should be reported just open a ticket or ask.

'''The Chatty app''' requires that in order to start a new text, you need to enter +[country code]-[phone number]. Without the + and the country code (+1 for USA) you won't be able to send a new text.

'''To adjust screen resolution''' [https://puri.sm/posts/easy-librem-5-app-development-scale-the-screen/] [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9016&pid=61403#pid61403] [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9016&pid=61685#pid61685]

# Continue the rest of the instructions on [https://puri.sm/posts/easy-librem-5-app-development-scale-the-screen/ this page]
# When you finish, you will have a touch-capable app you can use to adjust resolution any time, useful when switching between various apps. Unlike other solutions, this works across reboots.

'''Most of Debian's repository is available.''' There are packages that apt won't find, which need to be cross compiled ("ported") to ARM64 (see [https://wiki.debian.org/Arm64Port Debian's wiki on ARM64 port]), but the process is fairly easy. Most developers package their software for the AMD64 version of Debian, so they will throw an error when run; if you have the source code, you can compile it to run on ARM64/PinePhone. If you do so, you should contact the developers so they can provide precompiled ARM64 packages for others in the future. You should also contact Debian if you have working ARM64 packages not listed on [https://wiki.debian.org/Arm64Port this page], since this helps them track the status of ARM64 with Debian. Give their wiki page some TLC.

'''Apps that don't work with Wayland''': if you encounter an app that only works with X11 and not Wayland, report it upstream to the app's developers.

== SailfishOS ==
http://files.pine64.org/sw/pine64_installer/json/sailfishos.png
Sailfish OS is a Linux-based operating system based on open source projects such as Mer and including a closed source UI.

* ''' Download location '''
The SailfishOS image is built on Gitlab CI. The latest image can be installed using the [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sailfish-on-dontbeevil/flash-it/master/flash-it.sh flashing script].

The script downloads the image and bootloader from our CI, extracts everything and burns it onto the SD card. '''Note:''' The script will format and erase the SD card!

''Instructions:''
# Download the flashing script
# Insert a microSD card in your device
# Make the script executable: <code>chmod +x flash-it.sh</code>
# Verify that you have the <code>bsdtar</code> package installed
# Execute it: <code>./flash-it.sh</code>
# Follow the instructions. Some commands in the script require root permissions (for example: mounting and flashing the SD card).

Note that after baking µSD card and booting phone, as per [https://www.reddit.com/r/pinephone/comments/f1l7bm/sailfish_os_on_pinephone_best_os_so_far_in_my/fh8o0s2/ Reddit comment] you have to adjust autobrightness settings in order to actually see interface.

* ''' user-id/password '''

* ''' What works, what does not work '''
The current (2 Apr) version of Sailfish no longer has a defect with the auto brightness! If you're not familiar with SFOS, be prepared by having a (free) Jolla account and pay attention to the tutorial - the interface works great but isn't immediately obvious. If you are familiar with SF you can skip the tutorial by touching all 4 corners starting top left. There is a poor selection of apps available from the Jolla store. To enable openrepos.net install the Storeman app by downloading the rpm from https://openrepos.net/content/osetr/storeman. Browse the apps and add repository first from the pulley menu before installing the app.

== Maemo Leste ==
http://files.pine64.org/sw/pine64_installer/json/maemo_leste.png

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maemo Maemo] is a trimmed-down version of Debian for mobile devices, originally a collaboration between Nokia and many open source projects (the [http://maemo.org/intro/ Maemo community]) before Nokia abandoned it. The community now takes full responsibility in developing fully open source Maemo for a variety of mobile devices.

The new version Maemo 7 "Leste" is an ARM64 port of [https://devuan.org/ Devuan] (Debian without systemd) and runs the mainline Linux kernel. The default user interface stack is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hildon Hildon], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.Org_Server Xorg], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchbox_(window_manager) Matchbox WM], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GTK GTK]. The current version is Devuan Ascii (Debian Stretch) and they are working on an upgrade to Devuan Beowulf (Debian Buster) as well as simultaneous support for both Devuan and Debian. In addition to the main repository, they [https://maemo-leste.github.io/maemo-leste-repositories-and-community-packages.html announced] a [https://github.com/maemo-leste-extras/bugtracker community repository]. To keep updated they use automation in their package maintenance with [https://github.com/maemo-leste/jenkins-integration jenkins] (similar to [https://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/ debian's buildd]). Porting packages to Maemo Leste is basically a simple matter of porting to arm64 version of Debian/Devuan, which benefits both projects.

PinePhone Software Releases

2020-04-08T03:57:21Z

Fire219: Tracfone SIM info

This page is intended to help you install a software release on your [[PinePhone]]. It also provides details about all available releases as well as links to further resources.

= General instructions =

Releases are first installed to a Micro SD card. Choose a card with fast I/O (of small files) for the best performance. See [[#Other Resources]] for performance tests of various SD cards.

This section has generic installation instructions. Please see the [[#Software Releases]] section for specific installation instructions for each distribution.

== Boot priority ==

The default PinePhone boot priority is first the SD card and then the eMMC so inserting your own SD card with your preferred release will result in the phone booting your image.

User ''megi'' has demonstrated his multi-boot development [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL1GREqoqx8 on YouTube,] see Other Resouces at the bottom of this page for a link to his notes.

== Preparation of SD card ==
# Download your chosen image from the options below
# Extract the compressed file
# Write the image to your SD card
# Plug SD card into phone
# Boot phone
If you need step-by-step instructions for writing an image to an SD card, check [[NOOB#Step-by-Step_Instructions_to_Flashing_MicroSD_Cards]] then return to this page.

== Installation to eMMC (Optional) ==

=== Method Using Factory Installed Tools ===

The initial OS you get with your phone has the option to flash an image on SD card to eMMC.

# Copy (not flash) the image file to a formatted SD card.
# Insert SD card into powered-off phone.
# Turn on phone and select option to install to eMMC.

=== Safe & Easy Method ===

[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9444 Jumpdrive thread]

# download and extract [https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases the Jumpdrive image]
# flash the Jumpdrive image to a SD card
# boot from the SD card
# connect the PinePhone to your computer using USB-A -> USB-C cable.
# flash the exposed (mounted) PinePhone drive with a chosen OS image as you'd flash any SD card, and resize partitions (optional, see below)
# disconnect the PinePhone from your PC, power it down and remove the Jumpdrive SD card
# boot into your OS of choice on eMMC

The Jumpdrive image is smaller than 50MB. You can keep an SD card specifically for using Jumpdrive, and there are 64MB micro SD cards sold cheaply that will suffice.

=== Safe With No Extra Tools, But Slower ===

# Prepare a formatted SD card, flash desired OS to the SD card, and (optionally) resize the partition (see below)
# Insert SD card and boot the phone
# Open terminal and <code>git clone [url]</code> your desired project OR: Open web browser and download the desired OS image file.
# Build the OS (Optional)
# Flash the resulting image file you got by downloading or by building, to eMMC, using <code>dd if=/dev/mmcblkX of=/dev/mmcblkY bs=1M</code> where X is the number label of the SD card, and Y is the number label of the eMMC. Use the command ''lsblk'' to check your devices: typically with the current kernel the SD card is /dev/mmcblk0 and the eMMC is /dev/mmcblk2 but as always with ''dd'' be extremely cautious to get the devices correct. Then, resize partition to fill up entire disk (see below).
# Turn off phone, remove SD card. Turn on phone.

=== Risky Method ===

Warning: This copies a mounted filesystem, which can lead to instability, erratic behavior, and data corruption. Do not use long term.

# Prepare a new SD card, flash desired OS to the SD card
# Boot the phone with your new SD card image
# Within the booted OS, flash/clone the running OS to eMMC, e.g. using dd. It will take about 15 minutes (depending on the speed of your card), and in the end it may show an error about not enough space - just ignore it.
# Turn off phone, take out SD card, and try booting the phone which should load up the new OS from eMMC.
# Open terminal and resize partition to fill up entire disk (see below).

== Resize partition to fit disk space ==

Once you've flashed the OS to your SD card or eMMC storage, you may also need to expand the partition to fill all the available space.

=== Resize SD card's partition using computer ===

For SD cards, insert the SD card and resize the partitions through the computer. For eMMC, insert the phone cable and use Jumpdrive to access the eMMC directly, and resize the partition after flashing the image.

Using Growpart:

growpart /dev/sdX 1
resize2fs /dev/sdX 1

Locate growpart (<code>apt-cache search growpart</code> and install the package in the search results) and run:
growpart /dev/mmcblkX Y
resize2fs /dev/mmcblkXpY
where X is the storage device and Y is the partition number (viewable from lsblk).

If you get any errors about missing or unknown commands, use apt-cache search to find and install the needed software. Also don't forget to use sudo.

Using Parted:

Parted's interactive mode and resize work well together. Do this before you put your SD card into the PinePhone for the first time for best results.

sudo parted /dev/<your_sd_card_device>
(parted) resizepart 2 100%
(parted) quit
sudo resize /dev/<the_second_sd_card_PARTITION>

=== Resize from within PinePhone: ===

eMMC: you would need to resize the partition on eMMC (flashed with the operating system) by booting another image from the SD card: that way, the eMMC will be unmounted. It is '''not recommended''' to resize eMMC while booted from eMMC! Resizing a currently mounted partition can have weird results.

SD card: It is generally not possible to boot from eMMC to partition the unmounted SD card, because of the boot order -- you would have to write the image to the empty SD card first, then resize partition, all without rebooting. It is also '''not recommended''' to resize the SD card while booted from SD card! Resizing a currently mounted partition can have weird results.

== Installing Any ARM64 Distribution ==
'''Warning:''' Distributions not on this page may not even boot after you follow this section. In the best case, they will be barely usable. This is more for fun, or if you would like to port a new distro to the PinePhone.

'''Note:''' This section uses megi's kernel releases, and not the official ones from PINE64. While it is possible to use the official (and in the future, mainline) kernel, megi provides binary releases, which makes it very easy.

If you would like to see specific commands for how to complete these steps, see https://github.com/nikhiljha/pp-fedora-sdsetup (an example for Fedora) or https://xnux.eu/howtos/install-arch-linux-arm.html (an example for Arch Linux).

# Create a boot (from 4MiB to about 252MiB) and root (from 252 MiB to the end of the card) filesystem on the SD card.
# Format the boot partition with vfat, and the root partition with f2fs.
# Extract the root filesystem from your distro's ARM image into the root filesystem on the sd card. Do not copy the partition, copy the files (in archive mode: like rsync -ar).
# Edit /etc/fstab to match your partitions.
# Grab megi's kernel from https://xff.cz/kernels/ (you probably want 5.6).
# Follow the README instructions, which involves copying the kernel modules into the sd card rootfs and writing u-boot and the bootloader.

== Backlight ==
All current distributions do not have a good setup for the backlight at low brightness.
If configured too low, the backlight shuts down completely, but the screen is still displayed and usable in bright front-light.

Sailfish is one OS that initially uses automatic backlight control and the default setting makes the screen appear blank. When shining a bright light on the screen, you can still navigate the screen (and maybe the screen switches on temporarily due to the light sensor). This will make it possible for you to disable auto brightness in Settings, Display.

# When you finish, you will have a touch-capable app you can use to adjust resolution any time, useful when switching between various apps. Unlike other solutions, this works across reboots.

'''Most of Debian's repository is available.''' There are packages that apt won't find, which need to be cross compiled ("ported") to ARM64 (see [https://wiki.debian.org/Arm64Port Debian's wiki on ARM64 port]), but the process is fairly easy. Most developers package their software for the AMD64 version of Debian, so they will throw an error when run; if you have the source code, you can compile it to run on ARM64/PinePhone. If you do so, you should contact the developers so they can provide precompiled ARM64 packages for others in the future. You should also contact Debian if you have working ARM64 packages not listed on [https://wiki.debian.org/Arm64Port this page], since this helps them track the status of ARM64 with Debian. Give their wiki page some TLC.

'''Apps that don't work with Wayland''': if you encounter an app that only works with X11 and not Wayland, report it upstream to the app's developers.

== SailfishOS ==

Sailfish OS is a Linux-based operating system based on open source projects such as Mer and including a closed source UI.

* ''' Download location '''
The SailfishOS image is built on Gitlab CI. The latest image can be installed using the [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sailfish-on-dontbeevil/flash-it/master/flash-it.sh flashing script].

The script downloads the image and bootloader from our CI, extracts everything and burns it onto the SD card. '''Note:''' The script will format and erase the SD card!

''Instructions:''
# Download the flashing script
# Insert a microSD card in your device
# Make the script executable: <code>chmod +x flash-it.sh</code>
# Verify that you have the <code>bsdtar</code> package installed
# Execute it: <code>./flash-it.sh</code>
# Follow the instructions. Some commands in the script require root permissions (for example: mounting and flashing the SD card).

Note that after baking µSD card and booting phone, as per [https://www.reddit.com/r/pinephone/comments/f1l7bm/sailfish_os_on_pinephone_best_os_so_far_in_my/fh8o0s2/ Reddit comment] you have to adjust autobrightness settings in order to actually see interface.

* ''' user-id/password '''

* ''' What works, what does not work '''
The current (2 Apr) version of Sailfish no longer has a defect with the auto brightness! If you're not familiar with SFOS, be prepared by having a (free) Jolla account and pay attention to the tutorial - the interface works great but isn't immediately obvious. If you are familiar with SF you can skip the tutorial by touching all 4 corners starting top left. There is a poor selection of apps available from the Jolla store. To enable openrepos.net install the Storeman app by downloading the rpm from https://openrepos.net/content/osetr/storeman. Browse the apps and add repository first from the pulley menu before installing the app.

== Maemo Leste ==
http://files.pine64.org/sw/pine64_installer/json/maemo_leste.png

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maemo Maemo] is a trimmed-down version of Debian for mobile devices, originally a collaboration between Nokia and many open source projects (the [http://maemo.org/intro/ Maemo community]) before Nokia abandoned it. The community now takes full responsibility in developing fully open source Maemo for a variety of mobile devices.

The new version Maemo 7 "Leste" is an ARM64 port of [https://devuan.org/ Devuan] (Debian without systemd) and runs the mainline Linux kernel. The default user interface stack is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hildon Hildon], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.Org_Server Xorg], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchbox_(window_manager) Matchbox WM], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GTK GTK]. The current version is Devuan Ascii (Debian Stretch) and they are working on an upgrade to Devuan Beowulf (Debian Buster) as well as simultaneous support for both Devuan and Debian. In addition to the main repository, they [https://maemo-leste.github.io/maemo-leste-repositories-and-community-packages.html announced] a [https://github.com/maemo-leste-extras/bugtracker community repository]. To keep updated they use automation in their package maintenance with [https://github.com/maemo-leste/jenkins-integration jenkins] (similar to [https://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/ debian's buildd]). Porting packages to Maemo Leste is basically a simple matter of porting to arm64 version of Debian/Devuan, which benefits both projects.

PinePhone

2020-01-22T01:56:30Z

Fire219: BH preinstalled OS, and update STP link

The PinePhone is a smartphone created by Pine64, capable of running mainline Linux and supported by many partner projects. The "BraveHeart" edition was the first publicly-available version of the phone, though it came without a fully functional OS (factory test image) and was geared specifically towards tinkerers and hackers. People looking for a stable consumer-grade phone should wait for the final release, which is expected to occur in March 2020 and will be available for at least five years.

== Hardware Addons ==

The PinePhone has 6 "pogo pins" on the back allowing for custom hardware extensions such as wireless charging or an IR blaster. The pogo pins provide access to an interrupt line, power input to charge the battery, 3.3v power source, and an I2C interface.

'''A step/stl/stp (3D model) file for the back cover is [http://files.pine64.org/doc/PinePhone/PinePhone%20Back%20Cover%20ver%200.5.stp freely available] for creating custom cases that interface with the pogo pins.'''

== Killswitch configuration ==

The PinePhone features six switches that can be used to configure its hardware. They are numbered 1-6, with switch 1 located nearest to the modem. Their on position is toward the top of the phone.

# Microphone: On enables audio input from on-board microphones (not 3.5mm jack), off disables.
# Rear camera: On enables the rear camera, off disables.
# Front camera: On enables the front camera, off disables.
# Headphone: On enables audio input and output via the 3.5mm audio jack, off switches the jack to hardware UART mode.

== Battery ==

The [https://wiki.pine64.org/images/0/04/PinePhone_Battery_model_QZ01-396172-2750.pdf supplied battery] is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8120&pid=53307#pid53307 meant to be] compatible with Samsung part number EB-BJ700BBC / BBE / CBE from the 2015 J7 phone. There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8563&pid=55053#pid55053 a report] that the EB-BJ700CBE isn't quite the same size, causing the back not to fit properly.

The battery terminals, in order from nearest the edge to nearest the middle, are:

# +ve
# thermistor
# -ve
# not connected

The battery includes a protection circuit that isolates it in a number of fault conditions, including if it is discharged too far. The fully discharged battery [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8563&pid=55377#pid55377 can be recharged] by connecting the phone to a charger. Once it has charged sufficiently you wil be able to boot the phone.

'''When you first receive your Pinephone you will need to remove the plastic tab under the battery terminals to boot it! This is to protect it from turning on during shipping.'''

''' It's also important to note that the EG25 modem and RTL8723CS do not work without the battery plugged in, even if you are supplying enough power to the Pinephone with USB-C'''

== Modem and Carrier Support ==

To check if the PinePhone is supported on your carrier:

Search for your carrier on [https://www.frequencycheck.com/ frequencycheck.com] and compare the carrier's LTE/GSM/WCDMA frequencies to the PinePhone's supported frequencies (listed under the [[#Specifications|specifications]] section).

It is likely that there will be a few frequencies that your carrier uses which are not supported by the PinePhone. Not all of the carrier's frequencies need to be supported by the PinePhone for it to work - as long as ''most'' of them are supported, you will still get good coverage.

== Operating Systems ==
See [[PinePhone Software Release]] for the main article. The PinePhone will automatically boot from microSD if a bootable card is inserted. Although it is technically possible to use any ARM distro (because the PinePhone uses the mainline kernel), there are a few that are designed specifically for phones:
