[D] This is the video I used to figure out the general way to get the board back in:
Replacing the main PCB in a PinePhone
Since the 3GB board replacements are now available in the pine64 store

[D] :moon2SUFFER:
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:36]
[D] Going to work: 8 hours of your life. Buying a new car: 3 hours and $20k+
Finally getting your new Pinephone upgrade board installed: priceless
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:38]
[D] Hey PixelPaintBRush
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:38]
[D] Ready to try the binary
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:38]
[D] I hope this build machine works now, the idea is i mount dancts image, create the package and then ship..
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:39]
[D] hopefully it will work with any package i would want to compile
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:40]
[D] @PixelPaintbrush BTW keep in mind that your phone wont boot because there is no OS installed
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:41]
[D] oh they ship the board without the an image?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:41]
[D] so if you have an SD card with OS in it, then please insert it in before power on
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:41]
[D] @oogway yeah, that seems to be the case for some people
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:41]
[D] very weird, huh?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] yeee, but why worry, when I have my arch image and jumpdrive ready ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] ok
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] arch on eMMC all the way
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] I’d do manjaro but…I keep hearing it doesn’t work well…and chugs pretty slowly
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] i suggest setup the phone in another way
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] ?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:42]
[D] rootfs on emmc, and /home on sd card
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:43]
[D] 32 gb emmc isn’t enough 🙂
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:43]
[D] how do I do this? because I bought a 32Gb SD card JUST for this occasion!
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:43]
[D] oh
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:43]
[D] did you back your stuff up
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:44]
[D] if you dont mind then i guess that should be fine, do whatever you want
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:44]
[D] just my suggestion 😛
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:44]
[D] you can buy the 256GB eMMC at tem shop and hack it into the phone if anyone is willing to hardcore this way
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:45]
[D] btw, if anyone is attempting to do this hardcore mod, please pick a good emmc because i guarantee that you’ll get the best speeds out there
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:46]
[D] inb4 512GB/3GB pinephone
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:47]
[D] I’ll be good with 32G eMMC/32Gb SD ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:48]
[D] I’ll buy a new Pinephone to hardcore mod in the next 6 months probably (might just order parts and *build* one :D)
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:49]
[D] @Danct12 how would I just rootfs on eMMC /home onSD? Flash arch on eMMC first, then migrate the rest to the SD after?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:50]
[D] no it’s one of these very complicated partition thing
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:50]
[D] i think someone here can guide you better on that
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:52]
[D] hahaha… *no*
That would have been smart x.x
It’s on the old eMMC..but the steps are easy enough, I’ll just re-compile it tomorrow
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:52]
[D] oh ok
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:52]
[D] @Danct12 I’ll try it later than 😀
Would you recommend arch or manjaro? I like em both, but really only had success previously in Arch on pinephone :>
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] all my doom files are in G.Drive anyways haha
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] archis pretty cool
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] oh ok
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] can’t say because i maintain one of them
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] thats good Pixel hahaha
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] so my opinion on that doesn’t matter
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] and Pixel you have a build system for arch now
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] so you can create packages on the flu
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] flky
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] wll soon you will
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] haha yeah I know ???? I’m going arch just hassling ya
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:53]
[D] but for non-arch based distros, i think mobian is the best one out there
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:54]
[D] i’m overall impressed with what a-wai and other contributors are doing
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:54]
[D] I *might* put mobian on an SD card for the pinephone or tab..but definitely using the other 32Gb card for storage 😀
Mobian rocks too, waiting for the TwisterOS guys to get a Beta for the A64 sets
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:56]
[D] i might push out a new update that rebrands the os to a different name
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:56]
[D] because this is more like it’s own distro, and that’s also what antergos have done
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:57]
[D] ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 03:57]
[D] ❤️ linux
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:01]
[D] yes, linux is superior
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:10]
[D] Haha Pinephone go brrrrrr

Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:18]
[D] and shes’ done
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:18]
[D] arch work good
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:18]
[D] g’night! ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:18]
[D] Nite mate
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:19]
[D] @Danct12 How does your distro compare to Mobian or Manjaro?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:19]
[D] i think it has less apps installed than manjaro and mobian
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:20]
[D] i’m not a fan of adding a ton of applications as default
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:20]
[D] It has less apps but more stability?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:21]
[D] i’d say it uses less space, stability? not sure
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:21]
[D] but so far i haven’t run into any issue meaning it’s probably good lol
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:21]
[D] Is there a list of apps it comes with?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 04:22]
[D] probably just standard things that a phone is supposed to have
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 06:45]
[D] Does anyone know how to test if a micro sd card is going bad?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:01]
[D] @Tor.sh does it smell bad ?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:08]
[D] No?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:08]
[D] ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:33]
[D] Then the SD card is spoilt :p
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:37]
[M] The trick is to drop it in a glass of water and see if it floats
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:37]
[D] lol
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 07:39]
[D] that actually makes sense (if the SD card is internally burned up)
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:24]
[M] would be awsome to run the os on a 32G raid1 between the emc and the sd-card.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:25]
[M] better read speads, and writing i don’t mind if its slower
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:26]
[M] plus the redundancy
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:41]
[M] it wouldn’t improve read speeds, the sd is only connected with usb2, its super slow xD
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:43]
[M] has anyone tried to connect a ssd to it w/ the dock?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:43]
[D] This video’s “background” music makes the feel of changing the mainboard, like a relaxing thing xD
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:43]
[M] there’s some thin angled pcbs that can take a small m2 ssd, if you build a shell that includes a ssd…. that could work 😀
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 08:48]
[M] Get to work! ????
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:04]
[D] @Electr0Lyte SD cards always float though
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:04]
[D] They are really light
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:04]
[D] And I’ve dropped a few into water…
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:04]
[D] huh
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:06]
[D] @alumniminium The dock is limited to USB 2.0 speeds as well, so the EMMC of the 2GB pinephone is the fastest storage option.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:07]
[M] the emmc of the 16gb pp is faster than the 32gb
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:07]
[M] there’s a forum post where a couple people posted their benchmarks
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:20]
[D] Yes, which is what I was saying with “2GB”
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:20]
[D] 2/16
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:21]
[D] “`But the 16gb eMMC reads up to 88mb/s
The 32gb eMMC reads up to 65mb/s
SD is 23~ mb/s“`
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:40]
[D] @33YN2 and they’re too strong
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:41]
[D] sd cards definitely will survive nature takeover 😀
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:41]
[D] ive broken one before
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:41]
[D] they are easy to snap
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:42]
[D] also high speed ones have a high rate of shorts
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:43]
[D] I had one that I was keeping hidden inside of a keychain flashlight around 5 years ago
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:43]
[D] it snapped one time when I turned on the light
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:52]
[D] by that, you mean they catch on fire inside pinephone, but not on other phones?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:53]
[D] Yes and other devices
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:53]
[D] It’s rare but has happened a couple times now
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:53]
[D] If a SD card starts get hot, remove it immediately and throw it out
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:54]
[D] oh damn, well im glad that my sd card doesn’t catch on fire
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:54]
[D] these are just cheap ass slow cards
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:54]
[D] but i’ll keep this in mind, thanks for the warning
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:56]
[D] oh yeah I lost a micro sd adapter to a shorted card
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:56]
[D] fuckin thing got melted
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 09:58]
[D] https://i.redd.it/7g9m01a74no31.jpg
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:07]
[D] eek
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:09]
[D] eek indeed
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:56]
[D] Pine should release a $600 competitor to the Librem 5, with a quad-core or higher processor, M.2 NVMe drive slot, dual-band 802.11 ax WiFi, Bluetooth 6 or whatever…something like that.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:57]
[M] it’ll be cool to see pine contributing just as much as purism in the way of new technologies and apps 😮 that would be an amazing idea.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:58]
[D] A “Pinephone Pro”, if you will
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:58]
[D] imagine a $2000 flagship pinephone
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:58]
[M] yeah I don’t think a 2000 phone will sell well 😛
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:59]
[M] *2000 dollar
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:59]
[D] nope
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:59]
[D] def not
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 10:59]
[M] well I know one thing, after this whole debacle I’ll never order any device from purism again ^^
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:00]
[M] still waiting 😛
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:00]
[D] pinephone and librem 5 don’t really have the same target audience anyway
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:00]
[D] that’s coming soon
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] RK3566 people
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] https://tenor.com/view/pooh-dancing-excited-winnie-the-pooh-gangnam-style-gif-7703016
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] wait did the 3566 have pcie?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] yea
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] discrete gpu
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] I’m voting for rk3566 upgrade board.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[M] very true, I mostly bought the librem 5 because of it running fully free software and to contribute to mobile linux/gnome development 🙂
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] woot
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:01]
[D] that would be epic
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[D] I was thinking of making the whole phone a little more better
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[D] the back panel could use some work
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[D] The Librem 5 U.S. Edition is supposed to cost around $2000, due to all the labor restrictions and other worker protections in place in America. It’s kind of egregious that Apple has managed to normalize the idea of smartphones that cost more than $999 and _aren’t even repairable_.
*cough* iPhone 12 *cough*
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[D] COUGH COUGH INDEED
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[D] dayum
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:02]
[M] 2000 dollars would only cater to a *very* small audience
Konrad Dybcio, [09.12.20 11:02]
I would see a point if it had like 16 gigs of ram and 512 of storage and like two of these imx 8mqs xD
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:03]
[D] the RK3566 has 8GB ram
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:03]
[M] So the margin will be low anyway, even if they asked 4000 dollars
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:03]
[M] they wouldn’t earn a lot.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:03]
[M] *margin would be high, income would not.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:04]
[D] I recently rediscovered the old Ubuntu Edge, where Canonical was trying to make a “superphone” with high-end (for 2014) specs like a 4.5″ display, 4GBs of RAM and a quad-core processor for like $800 or something.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:04]
[M] that thing looked badass
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:04]
[M] full metal frame
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:04]
[M] pretty sure that could run desktop ubuntu at the time 😛
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:05]
[D] ahh yes, the ubuntu edge
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:05]
[M] but that campaign money though
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:05]
[D] It was supposed to be a convergence device, but it never got past the Kickstarter phase.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:05]
[M] It might still be the most expensive kickstarter campaign ever
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:05]
[M] 32 million dollars?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:06]
[M] if it did come out though, convergence would have been much further along
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:06]
[D] kind of a shame it never happened
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:08]
[D] Meizu MX4 Ubuntu edition was decently high specced for it’s time.
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:14]

Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:14]
[D] But when I enter the command, it is saying that it is unknown
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:17]
[D] What does Pine have in the works after KDE Plasma and Manjaro with Convergence Packages? What’s next on the timeline?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:18]
[D] @Mavadu What distro are you using?
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:18]
[D] mobian
Pine64 Protocol Bot, [09.12.20 11:20]
[D] Have you considered writing these commands directly to the `sources.list` file?
