Hey ED, Thanks for the update. I'm pretty sure I was one of those who paid full price to get my pandora fast. I haven't pre-ordered a pyra yet. Now that I hear you're making them at a loss and thinking about closing preorders, I'm wondering should I get in at the end of the preorders and order...

Aah right. I'm pretty sure I became aware of it all not-too-long afterwards, and at the time there weren't many positive opinions being voiced. I recall reading a detailed description of what happened that painted him in pretty negative light, but I can't remember many specifics and I wasn't...

Oh really?!? wow, that makes what ED did more impressive! Thanks for the correction! :)

Hello @chomwitt I feel your pain! I had a horrible experience with the predecessor to the neo900 (openmoko). That experience certainly made me more hesitant to buy into this type of thing. I consider myself lucky that I didn't preorder my pyra, because if I had preordered I would also be...

@FBnil I did know that, I own one :) Unfortunately it broke literally the first time I tried to use it :/ But my pandora has bigger problems than that, and I'm interested in fixing them all. thx for the suggestion though! :)

Thanks for the info. Ebay is a good idea. Let me know if you find any parts :)

Hi There, My pandora has finally died. So now it's time to try to either resurrect or replace it. Over the years it developed a few issues. I'm looking to buy either a complete working pandora 1ghz, or the following parts: * screen * LCD cable * analog nubs I'm in Australia, so anybody local...

Hi there @jabz Is this still available? I was really hoping to find some spare parts to fix my pandora, I wasn't looking to spend anything close to $600, but your pandora looks to be in really good condition. Have you used it much? And would you consider coming down on the price at all? I could...

Hey, sorry about the slow reply. I didn't get to this the next day. I've now had it charging for the last ~36 hours and I'll have a bunch of logs for you soon. it's charging at the moment and over 100% but it only seems to be going up very slowly now. I'm thinking that maybe because it's...

Hmmm. Interesting. It's still discharging at the moment. I might put it in a box or something and just let it charge over 100% while I'm sitting here. I'll let you know how that goes when I post the next log.

Here's a log charging from 5% up to >100%. at one point it stopped charging <100, discharged for a while, and then charged up to ~105%, which is when I unplugged it and stopped logging. https://antisol.org/pandora-log-20200730-173931.csv I'll let it discharge and do another one tomorrow.

I already spent a day doing that. see earlier posts. Which effectively makes it a paperweight, because I'm not confident enough that I'll remember to take it off the charger every time I leave it unattended. Given the potential consequences, this means I'll tend to just leave it unplugged. And...

OK, but isn't that all open? So it should be possible to find out WTF is going on. Do I need to contact ED maybe and find out what the hell is going on? (I have already tried contacting him on the forums, no reply yet, and it seems the contact section in the store is broken, of course). That's...

It's at this point that I unplugged the USB as I didn't want it charging any further. log file for this period: https://antisol.org/pandora-log-20200728-165213.csv

aah there it is, in appdata. Logging now. Does that voltage reading look OK?

yeah, on the help screen. You press L to enable logging and arrow keys to set interval. But I don't see anything about filenames

I haven't been able to figure out where system info is logging stuff?

Aaaaaand it's back to acting weird. I noticed a while ago that the battery had drained down to 20%, so i unplugged the usb cable and plugged it back in. And I've just noticed it at 103% and still charging. Yes

the recalibration seems to have helped so far - my pandora seems to be charging normally again. I'll continue to keep an eye on it. Thanks for the tip! I'd also love to hear any thoughts on getting the wall charger working again though :)

that sounds useful. But I meant testing /fixing the cocket on the pandora for the wall charger, since I think that's probably where the issue is
