What does not work
- KDE Plasma (boots into black screen)
- Any DE that uses Wayland
- Stylus
Touchscreen stops working after some minutes of uptime and after rebootThe touchscreen does technically work, so does OTG mouse as the cursor does move around, but at least in Xfce4 the DE stopped responding to any input events. It's still "alive" (the clock does update, and anything that's running will keep running), it's just no longer responding to any mouse events or keystrokes. Do note, however, thatCtrl+Alt+F1
, etc. still seems to work, as when switching to a tty, the cursor disappear, and when switching back to GUI withCtrl+Alt+F7
, the cursor comes back, however the tty could not be shown (the screen is stuck to the GUI no matter what I tried). Proof of touch working can be seen from ssh by using e.g.evtest
on/dev/input/event2
.- WiFi could connect, but the system cannot assign any IP address to the
wlan0
interface.
Flashing
After pmaports!3056 flashing can be done through Heimdall. Alternatively, one can use TWRP.
Flashing with heimdall
Enter flash mode by keeping
+ pressed.Then use pmbootstrap flasher flash_kernel
, reboot once again in flash mode and use pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs
.
You can do the full flashing at once with the following commands (supposing heimdall is in your PATH):
$ pmbootstrap export
$ heimdall flash --BOOT /tmp/postmarketOS-export/boot.img --SYSTEM /tmp/postmarketOS-export/samsung-n1awifi.img
Flashing with TRWP
After having installed TRWP, press and hold
+ + . Press when prompted.To create a TWRP flashable zip:
$ pmbootstrap install --android-recovery-zip
$ pmbootstrap export
Run adb push
/tmp/postmarketOS-export/pmos-samsung-n1awifi.zip to copy zip to the device, reboot to TWRP and install the zip and then reboot to system. You can also use adb sideload
as instructed in recovery zip installation.
