I recently received my #pine64 #pinetabv. Going to make a couple of videos on it. I want to publish a tutorial for batch 1 owners on flashing the new test firmware as it requires a new uboot image to be flashed onto the SPI chip.

One major thing I've noticed is that the SOC is highly dependent on the GPU. It cannot handle rendering using software as the CPU is very weak. It is very usable when the desktop is accelerated, web browsing is snappy.

I didn't manage to get the cameras to work, I noticed that there are some cobbled together scripts to get them to work, but that was unsuccessful. I did get display out to work fine though, as seen in the image.

Are you happy with the default Xournal++ settings on the PineNote? I have tweaked them so much, am tempted to refresh, now that I have a sense of how they feel. I haven't found a good user community, for sharing things like config settings. Not sure what I think of the Pine64 forums. The wiki requires git submissions.

@AllwissendeMuellhalde PineTime von pine64. EU store hier:

Das OS ist von der Community. Per default InfiniTime (geschrieben in C++). Es gibt aber alternativen geschrieben in MicroPython, Rust, und ich glaube Go auch

My Gentoo PinePhone(Pro) overlay has been updated. It now features Megapixels 2 Alpha 1 and Phosh 46 im not 100% sure I can upate to phosh 47 when it will release, due to the fact that gnome on gentoo is always abit behind. I will keep you all updated on it.

I've updated the Pine64 Wiki with the up-to-date overlay and documentation locations. https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_Pro_Software_Releases#Gentoo.
I would stongly recommend using the binaryhost since it recudes the compile time on the PinePhonePro. The binaryhost is PinePhonePro Only since lets be real using a normal PinePhone with Gentoo is not really realistic. The Binaryhost is updating to Python 3.13.

Tempted to buy a #Pine64 #PineNote... if only it had a keyboard case option.
Tempted to buy a Pine64 #PineTab 2... if only it had an EMR pen option.

XD

What OS are you all running on your pinephone? I'm currently running a slightly older version of postmarketOS with KDE directly from the emmc but it's kinda sluggish.

Pine64 ALPHA-One is a fanless RISC-V mini PC with up to 20 TOPS of AI performance

Pine64’s upcoming ALPHA-One is a small, fanless computer that stands out for a few reasons. One is that it’s made for AIL: the computer has an NPU with support for up to 20 TOPS of AI performance ad ships with a 7b Deepseek/Owen LLM pre-loaded and Pine64 says it supports about 3.5 tokens per second using that model.

Another reason is that the ALPHA-One doesn’t have an Intel, AMD, or Qualcomm […]

Update on shipping to the US

The PineStore have just set up a special shipping arrangement for US customers. This is done in bulk and will cost customers more, in turn the shipping will be quicker.

Please note that we can't guarantee whether you'll have to pay any extra tax at the border. There is also a 100 USD total cart value limit, this is due to risk as the PineStore are using a flat charge for the shipping method.

Spend the afternoon debugging my personal application after upgrading to #Java24. It would not start on my #PINE64 (#AARCH64 #ARM) . But it worked on my machine (yeah I know). Seems that the latest #openjdk builds are broken on that architecture. I initially thought that Java 24 changes to much it broke but it is the latest patch. It now runs smoothly on 21.0.6. Too bad I can't file a #bug somewhere. It has to do with #classloading. #java #developers #tenmurin

So I had to move from Fosstodon due to it collapsing, I am still looking at options for moving the @PINE64 account.

I got the #Pine64 #PineBuds Pro today. They sound pretty good, paired easily to my iPhone, more comfortable than AirPods. I like that the firmware is #opensource. You can potentially create a custom audio profile or find a community made profile and flash it to the pinebuds. No wireless charging, but the community has already made a mod for that. The beauty of opensource.

Important update for US customers.

The PinePhone, PineTab, and Pinenote are still able to ship from Hong Kong. However, all shipments from China are already suspended due to our shipping service no longer accepting packages.

The effect of the US tariffs start on May 2nd when shipments reach US customs. So please be aware that even if you place an order before May 2nd that it is possible (and likely if ordered close to the date) to be charged the extra tariff fee on top.

Thank You.

Our bridge bots have been unbanned and whitelisted, it turns out this was due to spam coming through the matrix bridge.

We are going to make some changes to help mitigate spam.

Thank you to the Matrix team for helping us out.

#pine64

Quick heads up, our bridge bots on the Matrix side are continuing to get banned for an unknown reason. Therefore some channels on Matrix are no longer bridging.

IRC, Discord and Telegram remain unaffected, we will continue looking into possible solutions for the time being.

I've gotta say, my #PineTime is my favorite #Pine64 product I own. Perfect? No. A good use of $25? Absolutely.

Got my PineTime yesterday.
Gotta play with GopherWatch and make some fun stuff with it!

What's the latest thing you've done with it @ayke ?
