== Manjaro ARM ==<br />
[[File:Manjaro.png|right|100px]]<br />
<br />
* The Manjaro project offers a mainline kernel with patches and modules to support PBPro hardware in two flavors. Both provide DD images and installer images (DD to SD card which will then install to eMMC when booted).<br />
* To learn more about Manjaro please visit [https://forum.manjaro.org/tags/manjaroarm Manjaro Forum] <br />
* '''Pitfall''': When using the EMMC installer from SD card, you may get stuck on the bootsplash animation forever. But that's just the image masking the TUI (text mode user interface) installer. Just press escape after like some seconds or so, and you will have an easy-to-follow installer. See foum post: [https://forum.manjaro.org/t/manjaro-arm-installer-to-emmc/115599/2 manjaro-arm-installer to eMMC]<br />

=== Manjaro ARM installer ===<br />
<br />
The [https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/applications/manjaro-arm-installer manjaro-arm-installer] script is intended to install Manjaro ARM directly to SD/eMMC cards without the need for images (including LXQT, Mate & CuboCore editions, as well as full disk encryption). The installer itself does not run on the Pinebook Pro. Running on a Linux x86 computer, it can install Manjaro ARM directly to an empty eMMC using an eMMC to USB adapter.<br />

** Installer can configure an encrypted rootfs and provides a choice of desktops, including the default Debian desktop based on Gnome 3<br />
** Strict adoption of upstream Debian packages (with exception of kernel and bootloaders) in order to provide a clean upgrade path as Bullseye matures<br />
* Download at: https://github.com/daniel-thompson/pinebook-pro-debian-installer/<br />
* Pull requests welcome but for discussion and support please use [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8487 the forum topic].<br />
<br />
For more information, see the [[Pinebook_Pro_Debian_Installer]] wiki page<br />
<br />
=== Official Debian Installer Images ===<br />
* Uses only the upstream kernel and firmware without special patches<br />
* No graphical display yet, works only through serial console<br />
* Requires adding the non-free component to your /etc/apt/sources.list file and installing the "firmware-linux" package for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support<br />
* Installer is loaded into RAM, can install onto the same media it's booted off of<br />
* Supports automatic partitioning and full disk encryption through LVM<br />
* Installer currently doesn't install the bootloader, leaving the installed system in an unbootable state until it's manually added<br />
<br />
[https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/arm64/daily/netboot/SD-card-images/ The relevant files are built daily here] and may sometimes be unavailable if the build system is having issues. The "README.concatenateable_images" file provides instructions on how to combine the partition.img.gz file with the firmware.pinebook-pro.rk3399.img.gz file in order to create a DD-able image.<br />
<br />
The official images are '''not''' recommended yet until the display begins working and the installer properly installs the bootloader. Most users will want to see [[Pinebook Pro Debian Installer|Daniel Thompson's Debian Installer]] instead.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />

|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB mouse or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after removing and replacing EMI shielding ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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;<br />
[https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm]<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work.<br />
<br />
=== USB docks & USB C alternate mode video ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Here are some selection criteria for successfully using the USB C alternate mode for video:<br />
* The device must use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort. Not USB C alternate mode HDMI, or other.<br />
* The device can have a HDMI, DVI, or VGA connector, if it uses an active translater.<br />
* 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.<br />
* USB docks that also use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort will always have USB 2 available, (480Mbps, half-duplex).<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB mouse or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />

=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />

== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after removing and replacing EMI shielding ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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;<br />
[https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm]<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work.<br />
<br />
=== USB docks & USB C alternate mode video ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Here are some selection criteria for successfully using the USB C alternate mode for video:<br />
* The device must use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort. Not USB C alternate mode HDMI, or other.<br />
* The device can have a HDMI, DVI, or VGA connector, if it uses an active translater.<br />
* 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.<br />
* USB docks that also use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort will always have USB 2 available, (480Mbps, half-duplex).<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />

! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB mouse or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

= Troubleshooting guide =<br />
Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after removing and replacing EMI shielding ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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;<br />
[https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm]<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work.<br />
<br />
=== USB docks & USB C alternate mode video ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Here are some selection criteria for successfully using the USB C alternate mode for video:<br />
* The device must use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort. Not USB C alternate mode HDMI, or other.<br />
* The device can have a HDMI, DVI, or VGA connector, if it uses an active translater.<br />
* 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.<br />
* USB docks that also use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort will always have USB 2 available, (480Mbps, half-duplex).<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
!Character<br />

|}<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB mouse or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />

== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />

<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after removing and replacing EMI shielding ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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;<br />
[https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/pinebook-firmware/tree/master/brcm]<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* 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.<br />
* 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><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work.<br />
<br />
=== USB docks & USB C alternate mode video ===<br />
The Pinebook Pro uses the RK3399 SoC, (System on a Chip). It supports a video pass through mode on the USB C port called alternate mode, using DisplayPort. This DisplayPort would come from the same GPU as the builtin LCD is displaying. Here are some selection criteria for successfully using the USB C alternate mode for video:<br />
* The device must use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort. Not USB C alternate mode HDMI, or other.<br />
* The device can have a HDMI, (DVI, or VGA) connector, if it uses an active translater from DisplayPort to HDMI, (DVI, or VGA)<br />
* 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.<br />
* USB docks that also use USB C alternate mode DisplayPort will always have USB 2 available, (480Mbps, half-duplex).<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work.<br />

'''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.<br />
<br />
'''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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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.)<br />
<br />

<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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.)<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

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

<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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. <br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
!Character<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />

* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches|Privacy Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* 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. Try an updated OS.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(If necessary, they 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
<br />
* 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.) <br />
* 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.<br />
* 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, then see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />

=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />

|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see [[Pinebook_Pro#Bootable Storage|Bootable Storage]].<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
!Character<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />

== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />

! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see Bootable Storage, below.<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this. Please see Trackpad, above.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
!Character<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />

you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off an NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, so the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is 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 reported 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.)<br />
<br />
Please see Bootable Storage, below.<br />

<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />

! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
<br />
Please refer to original documentation for details.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you will need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged or running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard or access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
From the terminal command line: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off a NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, thus the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Even have all the other file systems on the NVMe. except <code>/boot</code>.<br/><br />
Instructions for doing this are not complete as of 2019/11/20, but the forums has had people doing this with successful results.<br />
<br />
Another user has described in the forums a modified version of U-Boot with NVMe drivers, that uses <code>/boot</code> and <code>/</code> off the NVMe drive.<br/><br />
The U-Boot code does still has to exist on an eMMC or SD card.<br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Brief description of trackpad flashing process (please refer to original documentation for details)<br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you'll need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged / running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard/ access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
What you need to do: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches had a significant issues. A repair kit will be shipped to address those issues.<br />
<br />
(They 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.)<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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 booting from either the eMMC or an SD card. This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, using the normal partitioning and file system creation tools. Android and Chromium OS require testing.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off a NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, thus the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
However, it is possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Even have all the other file systems on the NVMe. except <code>/boot</code>.<br/><br />
Instructions for doing this are not complete as of 2019/11/20, but the forums has had people doing this with successful results.<br />
<br />
Another user has described in the forums a modified version of U-Boot with NVMe drivers, that uses <code>/boot</code> and <code>/</code> off the NVMe drive.<br/><br />
The U-Boot code does still has to exist on an eMMC or SD card.<br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
The trackpad firmware binary can be flashed from userspace using the provided open source utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
'''Everyone with a Pinebook Pro produced in 2019 should update their keyboard and trackpad firmware.''' <br />
<br />
Brief description of trackpad flashing process (please refer to original documentation for details)<br />
<br />
Before you start:<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The scripts ought to work on all OSs available for the Pinebook Pro. Some OSs may, however, require installation of relevant dependencies.<br />
<br />
What you'll need:<br />
<br />
*Your Pinebook Pro fully charged / running off of mains power<br />
*Connection to WiFi<br />
*An external USB keyboard/ access to the Pinebebook Pro via ssh <br />
<br />
What you need to do: <br />
<br />
<pre><br />
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd<br />
make<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 1<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-1<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Step 2 (after reboot)<br />
<pre><br />
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater<br />
sudo ./updater step-2<br />
sudo reboot<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of U-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches has a couple of problems although with a little hacking they can still be used. There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8322&pid=52700#pid52700 an unofficial tutorial on the forums] describing the mods.<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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. Even automounting at boot, (from eMMC or SD card). This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, though Android or Chromium OS may need testing. Simply use the normal partitioning and file system creation tools.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off a NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, thus the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
Howevever, it is possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Even have all the other file systems on the NVMe. except <code>/boot</code>.<br/><br />
Instructions for doing this are not complete as of 2019/11/20, but the forums has had people doing this with successful results.<br />
<br />
Another user has described in the forums a modified version of U-Boot with NVMe drivers, that uses <code>/boot</code> and <code>/</code> off the NVMe drive.<br/><br />
The U-Boot code does still has to exist on an eMMC or SD card.<br />
<br />
== Caring for the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [[Pinebook_Pro#Trackpad|firmware update]] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />
* When using an alternate OS, WiFi is un-usable or crashes alot. This may be due to the WiFi firmware in this alternate OS, is not appropriate for the WiFi chip in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
<br />
=== Bluetooth issues ===<br />
* If attempting to use Bluetooth attached speakers or headset, you will need to have the <b>pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</b> package installed. If not installed, you can do so with;<br><br />
<pre>sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth</pre><br />
<br />
=== Sound issues ===<br />
* If you never get sound from the headphone jack, but do when you select speakers, the headphone / UART console switch may be set to the UART mode. You can open the back and check the switch's status. If set to UART mode, switch it to headphone mode. See parts layout for location and position of switch for each function.<br />
* Others report that certain OSes have no sound at all. Try another OS via SD card and see if you can get sound that way, to eliminate hardware problems.<br />
* When using the USB C alternate DisplayPort mode, it's possible that the audio has been re-directed through this path. If your monitor has speakers, you may see if they work. Otherwise, the fix is unknown at present.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition, may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
!Character<br />

<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot''' (or a [//forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8313&pid=52645#pid52645 command line hack to bind/unbind]).<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced and can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />

With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of u-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches has a couple of problems although with a little hacking they can still be used. There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8322&pid=52700#pid52700 an unofficial tutorial on the forums] describing the mods.<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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. Even automounting at boot, (from eMMC or SD card). This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, though Android or Chromium OS may need testing. Simply use the normal partitioning and file system creation tools.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off a NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, thus the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
Howevever, it is possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Even have all the other file systems on the NVMe. except <code>/boot</code>.<br/><br />
Instructions for doing this are not complete as of 2019/11/20, but the forums has had people doing this with successful results.<br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
A [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8407 firmware update] has been released to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]]. <br />
<br />
=== Typing special characters ===<br />
The 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. <br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />

=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />

|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced and can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater).<br />
<br />
Documentation for the trackpad can be found in [[#Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]].<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
* Input Power: 5V DC @ 3A<br />
* Mechanical: 3.5mm OD / 1.35mm ID, Barrel jack<br />
* USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
* Only use one power input at a time, barrel jack OR USB-C<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using the UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the ON position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned OFF. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. If you do make your own cable, please ensure that you are using a 3.3v interface (such as the CH340, FTDI-232R or PL2303 - which are often sold in 3.3v and 5v variants) to avoid damage to the CPU. <br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
Current versions of u-Boot do not use the UART for console output. 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.<br />
<br />
== Using the optional NVMe adapter ==<br />
The optional NVMe adapter allows the use of M.2 cards that support the NVMe standard, (but not SATA standard).<br />
<br />
=== Installing the adapter ===<br />
<br />
The v2.1 SSD adapter that is shipped with the initial Pinebook Pro batches has a couple of problems although with a little hacking they can still be used. There is [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8322&pid=52700#pid52700 an unofficial tutorial on the forums] describing the mods.<br />
<br />
=== Using as data drive ===<br />
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. Even automounting at boot, (from eMMC or SD card). This applies to both Linux and FreeBSD, though Android or Chromium OS may need testing. Simply use the normal partitioning and file system creation tools.<br />
<br />
=== Using as OS root drive ===<br />
It is not possible to boot directly off a NVMe drive. The SoC does not include the NVMe boot code, thus the NVMe is not in the SoC's boot order.<br />
<br />
Howevever, it is possible to initially boot off an eMMC or SD card, then transfer to a root file system on the NVMe. Even have all the other file systems on the NVMe. except <code>/boot</code>.<br/><br />
Instructions for doing this are not complete as of 2019/11/20, but the forums has had people doing this with successful results.<br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8030 A firmware update is planned] to address this.<br />
<br />
=== WiFi issues ===<br />
* First, check the privacy switches to make sure your WiFi is enabled. They are persistant. See [[Pinebook_Pro_Main_Page#Privacy_Switches]]<br />
* Next, you may have to modify the file "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" as user "root", and replace "managed=false" with "managed=true". Then reboot.<br />
* For connections that drop and resume too often, it maybe WiFi power management from earlier OS releases. Later OS releases either removed WiFi power management, or default to full power. Try an updated OS.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals. <br />
<br />
=== German umlaute and the like ===<br />
On the UK Layout you can type umlaute by pressing [AltGr]+["] followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]. The key combination [AltGr]+[s] generates the letter 'ß'.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced and can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater[https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater]). However, the firmware shipped with the provided utility (as of 11/07/2019) can result in a bricked trackpad and thus should not be used until a revised version of said firmware has been published to the linked repo.<br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
UART output is enabled by flipping the UART switch to 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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the 'on' position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned off. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones.<br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New from the factory - Pinebook Pro won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro won't boot when using UART console cable ===<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Pinebook Pro will not power on after toggling the eMMC enable/disable switch ===<br />
* 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).<br />
* 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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8030 A firmware update is planned] to address this.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals. <br />
<br />
=== German umlaute and the like ===<br />
On the UK Layout you can type umlaute by pressing [AltGr]+["] followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]. The key combination [AltGr]+[s] generates the letter 'ß'.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced and can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility ([https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater]). However, the firmware shipped with the provided utility (as of 11/07/2019) can result in a bricked trackpad and thus should not be used until a revised version of said firmware has been published to the linked repo.<br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
UART output is enabled by flipping the UART switch to 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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the 'on' position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned off. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones.<br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New Pinebook won't boot / power on ===<br />
* 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><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><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.<br />
<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad will keep it from also disabling the keyboard.<br />
<br />
[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8030 A firmware update is planned] to address this.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals. <br />
<br />
=== German umlaute and the like ===<br />
On the UK Layout you can type umlaute by pressing [AltGr]+["] followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]. The key combination [AltGr]+[s] generates the letter 'ß'.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced and can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility ([https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater]). However, the firmware shipped with the provided utility (as of 11/07/2019) can result in a bricked trackpad and thus should not be used until a revised version of said firmware has been published to the linked repo.<br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== Using UART ==<br />
[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiring reference]]<br />
<br />
UART output is enabled by flipping the UART switch to 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.<br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the 'on' position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned off. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones.<br />
<br />
Insert the USB plug of the cable into an open USB port on the machine which will monitor. Run the following in a terminal:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
$ lsusb<br />
</code><br />
<br />
you should find a line similar to this:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
Bus 001 Device 058: ID 1a86:7523 QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter<br />
</code><br />
<br />
You may have to clean the USB contacts of the Serial cable to get a good connection if you do not find that line.<br />
<br />
The audio jack of the Serial cable should be fully inserted into the Pinebook Pro audio port.<br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

Tips, tricks and other information for troubleshooting your Pinebook Pro<br />
=== New Pinebook won't boot / power on ===<br />
Some Pinebook Pros came from the factory with the eMMC switch in the disabled position. It is supposed to be switched towards the back / hinge.<br><br />
Alternatively, the eMMC may have come loose during shipment. Simply open the back and verify that the eMMC is firmly seated.<br />
=== Keys not registering / missing keys when typing ===<br />
One issue occurs when your thumb or edge of the palm makes contact with left or right tip of the trackpad when you type. Basically its a case of palm rejection firmware being too forceful - instead of disabling the trackpad, (so your cursor doesn't dance all over the place), it actually disables both the trackpad and the keyboard.<br />
<br />
Using Fn+F7 to disable the touchpad cleared it up.<br />
<br />
[https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8030 A firmware update should be coming] to address this.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals. <br />
<br />
=== German umlaute and the like ===<br />
On the UK Layout you can type umlaute by pressing [AltGr]+["] followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]. The key combination [AltGr]+[s] generates the letter 'ß'.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

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 dissasembly and reassembly protocol]. <br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the 'on' position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned off. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. <br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals. <br />
<br />
=== German umlaute and the like ===<br />
On the UK Layout you can type umlaute by pressing [AltGr]+["] followed by [A], [O], [U], [a], [o] or [u]. The key combination [AltGr]+[s] generates the letter 'ß'.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />

<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

[[File:PBPUART.jpeg|400px|thumb|right|Headphone Jack UART wiering reference]]<br />
<br />
UART output is enabled by flipping the UART switch to 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 dissasembly and reassembly protocol]. <br />
<br />
With the UART switch in the 'on' position, console is relayed via the audiojack and the laptop's sound is turned off. PINE64 store sells [https://store.pine64.org/?product=pinebook-serial-console a dedicated serial console] but you can make your own if you have a serial console USB 2.0 adapter and old/ broken headphones. <br />
<br />
Serial output should now be accessible using screen, picocom or minicom (and others).<br />
Examples:<br />
<br />
<code><br />
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 1500000<br />
<br />
picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000<br />
<br />
minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000</code><br />
<br />
== Using the PineBook Pro ==<br />
<br />
=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
=== eMMC information ===<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk1 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />
The device number of "1" shown above may vary, depending on kernel.<br />
<br />
=== Boot sequence details ===<br />
<br />
The RK3399's mask 32KB ROM boot code looks for the next stage of code at byte off-set 32768. This is where u-Boot code would reside on any media that is bootable.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

== Accessing the Internals - Disassembly and Reassembly == <br />
[[File:Standoffs.png|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Screw stand-offs correct placement and location]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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 pannel 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.<br />
<br />
== Pinebook Pro Internal Layout ==<br />
<br />
=== Main chips ===<br />
* RK3399 system-on-chip (1)<br />
* LPDDR4 SDRAM (21)<br />
* SPI NOR flash memory (29)<br />
* eMMC flash memory (26)<br />
* WiFi/BT module (27)<br />
<br />
=== Mainboard Switches and Buttons ===<br />
There are two switches on the main board: disabling the eMMC (24), and enabling UART (9) via headphone jack. <br />
<br />
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). <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk0 - This block contains the user areas<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

* LPDDR4 SDRAM (21)<br />
* SPI NOR flash memory (29)<br />
* eMMC flash memory (26)<br />
* WiFi/BT module (27)<br />
<br />
=== Mainboard Switches and Buttons ===<br />
There are two switches on the main board: disabling the eMMC (24), and enabling UART (9) via headphone jack. <br />
<br />
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). <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk0p(num) - This(these) is(are) user partition(s)<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

== Accessing the Internals - Disassembly and Reassembly == <br />
[[File:Standoffs.png|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Screw stand-offs correct placement and location]]<br />
When disassembling the laptop make sure that it is powered off and closed. To open the Pinebook Pro you have to remove 10 Phillips head screws that hold the bottom section of the laptop in place. Remove the bottom from the back where the hinges are situated by lifting it up and away from the rest of the chassis.<br />
<br />
'''WARNING''' Do not reopen the laptop by lifting the lid whilst the Pinebook Pro bottom enclosure section 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. <br />
<br />
During reassembly, make sure that the back-screw standoffs are in place and seated correctly. To reassembled the Pinebook Pro, slide the bottom section into place so it meets the front lip of the keyboard section. Secure the front section (where trackpad is located) in place using short screws in the front left and right corners. Having done so, proceed to pop in the bottom pannel into place. Secure the bottom section (where hinges are located) by screwing in the left and right corners. Having completed this, screw in the remaining screws and run your finger though the rim on the chassis to make sure its fitted correctly.<br />
<br />
== Pinebook Pro Internal Layout ==<br />
<br />
=== Main chips ===<br />
* RK3399 system-on-chip (1)<br />
* LPDDR4 SDRAM (21)<br />
* SPI NOR flash memory (29)<br />
* eMMC flash memory (26)<br />
* WiFi/BT module (27)<br />
<br />
=== Mainboard Switches and Buttons ===<br />
There are two switches on the main board: disabling the eMMC (24), and enabling UART (9) via headphone jack. <br />
<br />
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). <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />
<br />
<br />
The eMMC storage will show up as multiple block devices:<br />
*mmcblk1boot0 - eMMC standard boot0 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1boot1 - eMMC standard boot1 partition, may be 4MB<br />
*mmcblk1rpmb - eMMC standard secure data partition. may be 16MB<br />
*mmcblk0p(num) - This(these) is(are) user partition(s)<br />
<br />
Only the last is usable as regular storage device in the Pinebook Pro.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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 keyy. It has also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
: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.<br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Keyboard ==<br />
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 keyy. It has also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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, USB 2.0, eMMC. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
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<br />
in a /boot partition on the eMMC.<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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 keyy. It has also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The keyboard firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Privacy Switches ===<br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian + MATE build is: SD, USB 2.0, eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order of the SoC: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD card. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />

== Introducing PineBook Pro == <br />
[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Trackpad ==<br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
Input Power: DC 5V @ 3A 3.5mm OD/ 1.35mm ID Barrel jack or USB-C 15W PD quickcharge<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

=== Bypass Cables ===<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian + MATE build is: SD, USB 2.0, eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order of the SoC: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD card. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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 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.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order of the SoC: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD card. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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 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.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order of the SoC: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD card. Booting off USB 3.0 storage is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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 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.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<br />
The PINE64 SmartWatch, dubbed "PineTime", is a product of a community effort for an open source smartwatch in collaboration with wearable RTOS and Linux app developers/communities. <br />
<br />
PineTime development has been broken down into two distinct phases: <br />
* Phase One - PineTime Dev Kit Project on October 2019<br />
* Phase Two - Introducing the PineTime smartwatch around Q1 2020, depending on development results in Phase 1.<br />

<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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 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.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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). <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
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 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.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected can permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
The keyboard has a special firmware that operates separately of the operating system. It detects if either the F10, F11 or F12 key, and the Pine key are pressed for 3 seconds. This disables the chosen peripherals listed above by cutting off their power. Which has the same result as cutting off the power to each peripheral with physical switch. This implementation is highly secure since the firmware that dictates if peripherals get powered 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 settings for each is stored across reboots.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. It cannot boot from USB-C.<br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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 [https://pdfhost.io/v/eCtjbXwCJ_ECN_20190828PRP01_1pdf.pdf engineering notice]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected will permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
The keyboard has a special firmware that operates separately of the operating system. It detects if either the F10, F11 or F12 key, and the Pine key are pressed for 3 seconds. This disables the chosen peripherals listed above by cutting off their power. Which has the same result as cutting off the power to each peripheral with physical switch. This implementation is highly secure since the firmware that dictates if peripherals get powered 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 settings for each is stored across reboots.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. <br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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 [https://pdfhost.io/v/eCtjbXwCJ_ECN_20190828PRP01_1pdf.pdf engineering notice]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected will permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in Datasheets for Components and Peripherals.<br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
The keyboard has a special firmware that operates separately of the operating system. It detects if either the F10, F11 or F12 key, and the Pine key are pressed for 3 seconds. This disables the chosen peripherals listed above by cutting off their power. Which has the same result as cutting off the power to each peripheral with physical switch. This implementation is highly secure since the firmware that dictates if peripherals get powered 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 settings for each is stored across reboots.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
:1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
: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). <br />
<br />
:3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
:4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

<div>[[File:PBP.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Pinebook Pro running stock Debian with MATE]]<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is a Linux and *BSD ARM laptop from [https://www.pine64.org/ PINE64]<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
The mouse and keyboard both use the USB 2.0 protocol. The LCD panel uses eDP MiPi display protocol.<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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

== Bootable Storage ==<br />
<br />
The Pinebook Pro is capable of booting from SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or an SD card. <br />
<br />
At this time, the boot order for the custom uboot (on eMMC) on the default Debian MATE build is: SD, then USB 2.0, then eMMC. This boot order is different then the default hard-coded boot order: SPI, eMMC, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, SD. USB 3.0 booting is not currently available, but will be in the future.<br />
<br />
Please note that PCIe, which is the interface used for an 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 eMMC) to rootfs flashed to NVMe. This requires the following on eMMC in a /boot partition: uboot, the Kernel image, DTB, extlinux.conf<br />
<br />
== Bypass Cables ==<br />
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 [https://pdfhost.io/v/eCtjbXwCJ_ECN_20190828PRP01_1pdf.pdf engineering notice]. <br />
<br />
WARNING: Do not connect the bypass cables with the battery connected. Using the bypass cables with the battery connected will permanently damage the computer.<br />
<br />
=Keyboard and Trackpad =<br />
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, that also a secondary functionality for setting the privacy switches. <br />
<br />
The trackpad is large, smooth (metallic to-the-touch), and has two actuating buttons. It is the only component of the Pinebook Pro held in place with strong adhesive tape. It supports multi-touch functionality. <br />
<br />
The keyboard and trackpad firmware is open sourced can be flashed from userspace using the provided utility. <br />
<br />
Documentation for the keyboard and trackpad can be found in [[Datasheets for Components and Peripherals|Datasheets for Components and Peripherals]] <br />
<br />
== Privacy Switches == <br />
There are three privacy switches mapped to the F10, F11 and F12 keys on the Pinebook Pro keyboard. They de/activate the following:<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ Privacy switch function and description<br />
! Combination<br />
! Effect<br />
! Description<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F10<br />
| Microphone Privacy switch || CAPs lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F11<br />
| WiFi Privacy switch || NUM lock LED blinks. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled. '''Re-enabling requires reboot'''.<br />
|-<br />
! scope=row | PINE64 logo key+F12<br />
| Camera privacy switch || CAPs lock and NUM lock LEDs blink together. 2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled<br />
|}<br />
<br />
'''(Press the PINE64 logo key plus Fn (10/11/12) for 3 seconds)'''<br />
<br />
The keyboard has a special firmware that operates separately of the operating system. It detects if either the F10, F11 or F12 key, and the Pine key are pressed for 3 seconds. This disables the chosen peripherals listed above by cutting off their power. Which has the same result as cutting off the power to each peripheral with physical switch. This implementation is highly secure since the firmware that dictates if peripherals get powered 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 settings for each is stored across reboots.<br />
<br />
== LEDs ==<br />
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: <br />
<br />
1. The amber 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. <br />
<br />
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). <br />
<br />
3. The Num lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
4. The Caps lock, green LED.<br />
<br />
(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.)<br />

== LEDs ==<br />
<br />
A green LED next to the 12V input barrel connector will light as long as there is 12V applied to the connector. (Even if the RockPro64 is powered off.)<br />
<br />
A white LED behind the reset button will light as long as the RockPro64 is running (it comes on a few seconds after power on, when control is passed to the operating system.)<br />
<br />
A red LED behind the reset button is DIY - it is lit for example if the board is in OTG mode with an Ayufan image, or if an Android image is in standby mode.<br />
<br />
Yellow and green LEDs on the LAN socket behave in a standard way.<br />
<br />
== Jumpers ==<br />
They are used for boot device selection, as described in the following section.<br />
<br />
=== Disable eMMC ===<br />
<br />
There is an unlabelled (on the PCB silk-screen) 2-pin jumper (16) between the eMMC socket (14) and the SPI chip (17). It is designated as SW4 on the [[#Board Information, Schematics and Certifications | schematic diagram]]. The default condition is OPEN (no jumper). It is useful for controlling the boot as follows:<br />
<br />
Default boot device (with no SPI software) is eMMC, then SDcard. If both the eMMC and the SDcard contain bootable images then the eMMC can be disabled by installing the jumper. This completely removes the eMMC from the resulting OS. If you wish the eMMC to be visible in the booted OS the jumper should be removed 2 seconds after applying power (and before the white LED comes on).<br />
<br />
The possible combinations are summarised in the table below (1 = present, 0 = not present, S = boot from the µSD card, M = boot from the eMMC module, X = unsupported combination):<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable sortable" style="text-align: center;"<br />
! µSD !! eMMC !! SW4 !! boot<br />
|-<br />
| 0 || 0 || 0 || X<br />
|-<br />
| 0 || 0 || 1 || X<br />
|-<br />
| 0 || 1 || 0 || M<br />
|-<br />
| 0 || 1 || 1 || X<br />
|-<br />
| 1 || 0 || 0 || S<br />
|-<br />
| 1 || 0 || 1 || S<br />
|-<br />
| 1 || 1 || 0 || M<br />
|-<br />
| 1 || 1 || 1 || S<br />
|}<br />
<br />
=== Disable SPI (while booting) ===<br />
There is a second possibility to jumper your ROCKPro64: If you mess-up your SPI and are unable to boot, jumpering pins 23 (CLK) and 25 pin (GND) on the PI-2-bus header will disable the SPI as a boot device. (This was taken from the IRC logs, 09 August 2018 @ 17:23) You have to remove the jumper 2 seconds after having started your RP64 (before the white LED turns ON) otherwise the SPI will be missing and you won't be able to flash it.<br />
Ayudan images contain (at the moment) only one script for the SPI and the RP64, it's "rockpro64_reset_spi_flash". Other SPI scripts are dedicated to the R64 (as it is written on the name) and it will mess-up your RP64 SPI if you use them.<br />

<br />
<br />
= Getting Started =<br />
<br />
This section gives important information to get the board up and running.<br />
<br />
== Start here - Software and OS Image Builds ==<br />
<br />
In the '[[ROCKPro64 Software Release]]' page you will find a complete list of currently supported Operating System images that work with the ROCKPro64 as well as other related software. The Software Release page has links to download the images as well as high level instructions how to load each image.<br />
<br />
Please see the [[NOOB]] page for detailed discussion of what you need (prerequisites) as well as instructions if the high level instructions are insufficient.<br />
<br />
== More advanced Linux bits ==<br />
<br />
Some Linux tips are given below.<br />
<br />
=== How to update your Linux ===<br />
<br />
For Debian/Ubuntu images entering the following commands at a terminal prompt<br />
<br />
<code>sudo apt-get update</code><br><br />
<code>sudo apt-get upgrade</code><br />
<br />
will keep your installation up to date. To update Ayufan images to the next release (when available) use the following command<br />
<br />
<code>sudo apt-get dist-upgrade</code><br />
<br />
If you are happy to update your system to pre-releases of Ayufan images then modify /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ayufan-rock64.list as per the comment in that file.<br />
<br />
The kernel in Ayufan releases is under active development and, if you wish to install a later version, then it is best to use a package manager. In synaptic (for example), if you search for package names linux-image-4.4 you should see your currently installed version(s) as well as any more recent ones. Similarly if you wish to install the mainline kernel then searching for linux-image-4.18 will show you what is available. '''At the time of writing (August 2018) there are significant features missing from the mainline kernel for aarch64 processors (e.g. HDMI sound).'''<br />
<br />
=== Useful scripts ===<br />
After you install an Ayufan image you will find some scripts in /usr/local/sbin/ and /usr/local/bin/ that may be useful. (Need to expand this section)<br />
<br />
=== Video playback ===<br />
Ayufan has some old documentation on [https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/blob/master/recipes/video-playback.md video playback here.] For your ROCKPro64 the install should be<br />
<br />
<code>sudo apt-get install ffmpeg mpv libmali-rk-midgard-t86x-r14p0-gbm</code><br />
<br />
(These modules are included in the Ayufan deskop releases.) At which stage rkmpv myvideo.mp4 will play a fullscreen, hardware assisted, version of your video. rkmpv is at /usr/local/bin/rkmpv<br />
<br />
=== Swapping kernel versions ===<br />
extlinux is in use on Ayufan images (at least) which enables some switching between installed kernel versions - [https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/blob/master/recipes/extlinux.md intro documentation is here.] In particular after you install any additional kernels, you can edit your /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file to specify which of the kernels you have installed to use for the next boot.<br />
<br />
From Ayufan version 0.7.11 the script /usr/local/sbin/change-default-kernel.sh does a nice little menu swap for you if you run it as root (sudo).<br />
<br />
=== Using an NVMe disk for rootfs ===<br />
Forum member Bullet64 has documented [https://forum.frank-mankel.org/topic/208/booten-von-der-nvme-platte how to move rootfs to an NVMe disk.] This is useful until we get a full SPI option to boot from the NVMe.<br />
<br />
== More advanced bits related to any OS ==<br />
<br />
This section gives some hints for advanced users.<br />
<br />
=== Setup a serial console (UART)===<br />
The early adopters (and late-comers who fiddle excessively with their boards!) have a need to monitor the low-level boot behaviour: this is done with a serial console and there [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=6387 is a great description how to get this working specifically for your ROCKPro64 here.]<br />
<br />
=== Booting from USB or PXE ===<br />
<br />
The default choice of boot device is first eMMC (if present) then SDcard. See [[ ROCKPro64_Main_Page#Disable_eMMC | jumpers above for details on adjusting this sequence.]]<br />
<br />
It is possible to flash the SPI to extend the options for boot devices to USB drives or PXE. The preferred method is now the rock64_write_spi_flash.sh script (see [[ROCKPro64_Main_Page#Useful_scripts | useful scripts above.]]) The NOOB wiki page has more details [[NOOB#Flashing_u-boot_to_SPI_Flash | here.]]<br />
<br />
Background info and historic details of this usage [https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/blob/master/recipes/flash-spi.md can be found here.]<br />
<br />
=== OTG mode ===<br />
<br />
You can boot your ROCKPro64 into OTG mode with the use of the Recover button (see [[ROCKPro64_Main_Page#Switches | switch 28 above.]]) Note there are 2 OTG ports on your ROCKPro64: the type-C USB 3 socket is definitely one. From the schematic it appears the USB 3 (type A) socket is the other, but this has yet to be confirmed.<br />
<br />
The method is to power off the board. Then push and hold the Recover button and push and release the Power button. <br />
* If you have an Ayufan bootable image in either the SDcard or eMMC then there are 4 OTG modes [https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-u-boot/commit/ea6efecdfecc57c853a6f32f78469d1b2417329b described here] including Android fastboot, RockUSB and MaskROM modes. Releasing the Recover button as soon as the white LED lights counts as 1 blink. Keeping it pressed you will get 2 blinks of the white LED etc. Once the board enters OTG mode the red LED will be lit. In mode 1 the boot and linux-root partitions of the card with the Ayufan image (partitions 6 & 7 of a linux installation) are made available as devices. In all cases the USB device made available at the host has device ID 18d1:d00d.<br />
* If you do not have an Ayufan image in either the SDcard or the eMMC, then neither white nor red LEDs will light, but the board will enter MaskROM mode where the USB device made available at the host has device ID 2207:330c.<br />

=== NVMe drives ===<br />
Please be aware that [https://store.pine64.org/?product=rockpro64-pci-e-x4-to-m-2ngff-nvme-ssd-interface-card the Pine64 SSD interface card] is intended for use with NVMe devices. These can be identified by the fact they have a single (Key M) notch, e.g. [https://www.wdc.com/content/dam/wdc/website/products/family/wd-black-pcie-ssd/wdfWDBlackSSD_PCIe_img1.jpg.imgw.500.500.jpg the WD Black devices.]<br />
<br />
While M2/NGFF SATA devices (with a Key B notch, typically have Key M as well) will physically fit, they will not work. e.g. [https://www.wdc.com/content/dam/wdc/website/products/personal/internal_storage/wd_blue_3d_nand_sata_ssd/blue3d_product-overview.jpg.imgw.1000.1000.jpg WD Blue devices.]<br />
<br />
=== SATA drives ===<br />
SATA drives can be connected directly via the [https://store.pine64.org/?product=rockpro64-pci-e-to-dual-sata-ii-interface-card ROCKPro64 PCIe interface card.] Please note the card does not include the power cable - that is a [https://store.pine64.org/?product=rockpro64-power-cable-for-dual-sata-drives separate item.] Equally you must be aware that connecting SATA drives in this manner means they will be drawing power from your ROCKPro64 - please ensure you are using a 5A or better power supply.<br />

'''Note:''' keyboard variants with similar names as the ones above change the upper left key for ` and ~. You have to press that key twice to get the desired char. This happens with the alt-intl variant. Choose the altgr-intl variant (or however it is called in your desktop environment) and it should work as expected.<br />
<br />
<br />
To set the keyboard layout and variant in the terminal for X-Windows use:<br />
<br />
setxkbmap -layout us -variant altgr-intl<br />
<br />
The Archlinux Wiki has some good help if you need to tweak your layout further [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg/Keyboard_configuration#Setting_keyboard_layout] <br />

'''Key between Fn and Alt (Menu)'''<br />
<br />
How to map the key between Fn and Alt to SUPER / META ?<br />
<br />
The initial setup in many desktop environments maps the key between Fn and Alt to MENU. Although the menu key can be useful as well (e.g. spell correction in the browser) many desktop environments and window manager use the Super key for many other useful functions. And users are probably more used to have the META key near Ctrl and Alt.<br />
<br />
In X-windows the following command maps the key between Fn and Alt to META and the Caps-Lock key to MENU.<br />
<br />
setxkbmap -option caps:menu,altwin:alt_super_win<br />

'''Set display brightness in the terminal'''<br />
<br />
To set the display brightness in the terminal use xbacklight (if available in your distro): <br />
<br />
xbacklight -setXX <br />
<br />
XX is the percentage (%) of brightness. E.g. for 70% brightness<br />
<br />
xbacklight -set70<br />
<br />
If you use LXQt you can also use:<br />
pkexec lxqt-backlight_backend --inc<br />
pkexec lxqt-backlight_backend --dec<br />
<br />

'''Disable wireless power management'''<br />
<br />
If having issues with wifi connectivity, try to disable power management in the 8723cs module options, adding rtw_power_mgnt=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/8723cs.conf<br />

'''Touchpad acceleration and scroll direction.'''<br />
<br />
To set touchpad parameters from the cli you can use the command ''xinput''.<br />
To use it correctly you first need to determine the device id / name for your touchpad. Use <br />
xinput list<br />
to do so.<br />
You are looking for a line like this:<br />
HAILUCK CO.,LTD USB KEYBOARD Mouse id=7 [slave pointer (2)]<br />
<br />
With the device id = 7 found you can list the parameters that can be set with ''xinput''.<br />
xinput list-props 7<br />
<br />
The result looks similar to this:<br />
device 'HAILUCK CO.,LTD USB KEYBOARD Mouse':<br />
...<br />
libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled (256): 0<br />
...<br />
libinput Accel Speed (265): 0.000000<br />
...<br />
<br />
<br />
To change the parameter use ''xinput set-prop''<br />
<br />
To set reverse scrolling for the touchpad use this command <br />
xinput set-prop 7 'libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled' 1<br />
<br />
To set mouse speed<br />
xinput set-prop 7 'libinput Accel Speed' 0.95<br />
Check different numbers for 0.95 to meet your needs.<br />
