@PawelK The whole design is based off existing products and easily sourced smartphone parts. There are a lot of cool stories from those directly involved in the development of the phone. Cameras had to be reversed to get working with open source code and the A64 was the most powerful SoC with the Mali400. It was as open source as possible.

@PawelK The Pinephone battery is removable. The whole phone is held together with 6 screws that are the same size. The back of the phone pops off for battery and switch access.

@PawelK That's a significant amount of power being used for each of those.

@PawelK Using wget for the HTML and loading in the parts desired would be easy on resources.

@PawelK Allwinner SoCs like the A64 are paired with an X Powers AXP 803 which controls charging and power use. There's also another PMU on the Pinephone. I think the other is used for faster charging and more advanced features.

@PawelK Pinephone uses the same battery as a Samsung J5 I believe. It's not a complicated connector.

@PawelK Infinitime had the same problem with the PineTime and its Nordic chip.

A cell phone would be very different. What Mr. Lee is working on could actually get closer to it if the Pinephone had a low power screen and a larger battery. There is likely a problem with that hardware revision too. It has enough control to where it charged at 5V 3A without issue for me. Two microcontrollers control charging of the device.

@thor That sounds like a good time.

@thor Neurotoxin isn't as serious as a Traumatic Brain Injury. Honestly it is up to the government and their pets to say if something is neurotoxic. Go fast if one wants, it's not as bad as people say.

@Rasp @thor Or a Japanese version.

@lupyuen Lattice chip so it can actually be used without being a lawsuit magnet. This is encouraging.

@lupyuen Good old Hayes Commands. How does one know if code is for a modem? AT commands. I'd highly recommend keeping these commands handy, one never knows where it can pop up.

@thor It really is a shame.

@Vox It can be done but it's worn in leather. Density changes as the leather stretches until it is broken in.

@thor It's mostly E-Waste until the companies sue any opposition into submission.

There are a few companies that own the Science to make these devices. It seems silly but it's not a joke.

@kmic Oh you choose good decisions very quickly despite life.

@cyrilpedia From before the availability of the first vaccine, there were allegations of state backed hackers accessing or trying to access data from the not RUS or ZN vaccine programs. When a question was posed, a stern but melancholic answer was given. We aren't all in this together.

From the secrets protected with government resources and several different vaccines emerging from the worldwide pandemic, I don't trust the vaccines. They were made in a panic, bolstered through trials with a cult of fear and forced on people harder than a new tax.

Perhaps what I'm trying to say is that unless it's the same vaccine that is independently approved and used by countries like Rus and China, I won't take it. Is my life more important? Are deaths in Russia and China of no consequence? Perhaps it would be helpful to see those that refused to collaborate or share information as part of a collective effort as profiting from fear, illness and death.

It's harder to hide secrets with so many eyes on the data. Good or bad, it doesn't really matter.
