    Selling first batch Pandora

    I just listed it on eBay and it occured to me that not so many people in the wide world will know what I'm talking about. Maybe someone here is interested in something to tide you over till Pyra ships? https://www.ebay.com/itm/324177950617 It's pre-loved, but with a new battery. Details/pics...

    Lcd Turning On When Lid Is Closed

    ...7mm open on the front edge, so fully closed, the magnet isn't even close to the threshold of tripping the switch. Hey thanks for all the help on this. I'm still geeking out that it's *possible* to just add debug code to part of the system to see what's going on here. Gotta love the Pandora.. a

    Lcd Turning On When Lid Is Closed

    I'm not putting it to sleep. I came to the conclusion that it saved me almost no battery and meant that I had to wait longer to use it when I wanted to. It seems to be getting worse for me, has happened 5 times this morning already. And I always keep it in my pocket. There's really no room in...

    Lcd Turning On When Lid Is Closed

    Oh no, it's not rebooted. I'd be much more worried if it did that in my pocket. It's just that the light turns on. I've done some experimenting with it and I can also reproduce this by very quickly opening the lid a fraction and closing it. I'd be very surprised if it was opening in my pocket...

    Lcd Turning On When Lid Is Closed

    Has anyone else seen this? Occasionally, when I pull the Pandora out of my pocket, it feels a little warmer and I can see (through the slightly lifted left side :) ) that the screen backlight is on. It's not a huge deal, but it depletes the battery faster than I'd like. Presumably there is...

    Smaller Battery

    Very interesting, thanks. I guess I agree it wouldn't necessarily be worth it at this point, but this is good stuff to know.

    Smaller Battery

    Getting the obvious objections out of the way first: Pandora's big battery is awesome and the kind of battery life that we are seeing for continual usage is great. There are tons of reasons why someone might not want to consider having a smaller battery and reducing that. This is a given...

    Pandora will not power on

    Thanks so much guys; urjaman's method in the thread above has indeed done the trick. Awesome. I was all resigned to send it back again, but I guess the Pandora truly is unbrickable. It's currently charging up and I'm applying HF4 again, so hopefully no issues this time. It's taking a very long...

    Aha, that does look promising. Thanks, I'll give that I try tonight and report back. a

    Pandora will not power on

    Hi, I've seen a couple of issues relating to units not booting or powering on. I seem to have a slightly different problem to ones mentioned in other threads so I thought I'd see if anyone has any ideas before I totally give up on this Pandora unit. This is a replacement unit that I just...

    Guide: Mobile Broadband Usb Stick Usage

    I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere trying to get this to work, so it's pretty hit and miss, and I haven't been able to download modemmanager yet. I'm stuck at the very first step. When I lsusb I just get the two hubs - I'm using a uk '3' dongle which is a Huawei E169 - it's definitely USB 2 and...

    Release Remmina 0.7.5

    My wife is PROFOUNDLY unimpressed by my Pandora, but last night I managed to get a "OK that's quite cool" out of her with Remmina. Our TV is a Linux box with a big screen running MythTV (HTPC = Home Theater PC) and I showed her that I could use the Pandora to control that and load up a HULU show...

    Release Beat2X 0.5 Released

    I was just about to post that the same thing was happening to me - I'd load Beat2x, hit Start and it would crash. Then on a whim I changed the mode to Practice and it just worked. Give it a try, you never know your luck... ;) I figured it was just me, because that was where Beat2x always used...

    Bluetooth Audio

    ^ certainly, it's dawning on me that ~/.asoundrc holds the solution to this. I'm current listening to Exaile (my Pandora is in the other room!) using this: pcm.!default { type bluetooth } which is pretty similar to what you suggested. A quick and dirty toggling method, then, is to have 2...

    Bluetooth Audio

    Hi, I've not seen many people asking about this, but anyway I've been trying to pair a Jabra BT3030 stereo bluetooth headset with the Pandora for untethered tunes and I have some success. The headset pairs no problem, but there is some more work needed to get sound coming out. Edit this file...

    Pandora Angstrom Repository?

    ...on Pandora - there will need to be porting or dependency management first. So for noob-intermediate users, we're still talking about waiting on *someone else* to do that. I can see a big opportunity having a unified system using .ipk and .pnd files. Theoretically I guess it should be...

    Pandora Angstrom Repository?

    alright... probably not a permissions issue. I've seen what some others have; that some packages install, some don't. I'm working on the theory that anything that (with it's dependencies) appears in the package lists will install. Anything that does not will fail silently. sudo opkg search...
