Hey everyone! we have a few announcements today!

We know a lot of people have been asking when the sealed PineTime would return. Today we are happy share that the new batch of sealed PineTime's are now available on PineStore's website.

pine64.com/product/pinetime-sm…

As for the PineTime Pro, lots of initial bring-up work is being done by JF and Gamiee. Once the current prototype is finalized, PineStore will start a pilot batch for pioneer developers. Stay tuned!

And finally for those who have been waiting for the PineVoice (formally PineVox) Home Assistant speaker, we have been given a PineStore launch date of the 15th of June!

Please note though that the firmware shipping on the PineVoice is still in beta as some further improvements can be made. Firmware improvements will come in time.

Annnnd that's about it right now. Have a great day/afternoon/evening/night!

The Pinedio LoRa adapter lives thanks to Meshcore and pyMC_core!

The Pinedio USB LoRa adapter endured spamming a message at the byte limit to a Heltec V3 node for 30 seconds without issue.

Don't worry, Android 2 on the PinePhone isn't real, it can't hurt you.

Is your PINE64 RSS feed sad and lumpy? (It doesn't contain the full blog post, only a description) Well we have great news for you! We now publish the full blog post in your RSS feed (that's 65% more blog post per blog post!), don't know why it wasn't like that before, but there we go.

If you don't see this change already please update your RSS feed: pine64.org/blog/index.xml

Also appending the previous update with some new content in a blog post: pine64.org/2026/05/18/may_2026…

The PineDio USB LoRa Adapter is at the focus of a new effort to begin progress on potential new LoRa devices. MeshCore is the current protocol target for the USB LoRa Adapter along with help from the pyMC_core library project.

The current problem with the device is that the crystal oscillator is heating up too much and can cause clock frequency drifting instability. In a nutshell that means your messages come out garbled. This may eventually be fixed with a TXCO (Temperature-Compensated Crystal Oscillator) to maintain a stable clock frequency.

@machaddr has released a Gentoo based image for the #pinetabv . Make sure to flash to an SD card if you wish to test it out!

Hey everyone, we'd like to make a public disclosure to the community about a product currently selling on the PineStore website (pine64.com).

The current Desktop PinePower V2 batch has an issue where in some situations the USB-C ports will report "0V" when there is obviously something attached. In reality it is actually outputting the correct voltage.

This has been fixed for future batches, but the current batch still has stock available. There is no fix available for affected Desktop PinePower V2 batches as the MCU can only be flashed at the factory. We have no ETA when the fixed batch will start production as this depends on the rest of the buggered batch being sold. We'll let you all know when the fixed ones hit the store.

And please don't open your PinePowers as they're high voltage power supplies (dangerous, shocking even!). Hopefully that is obvious to most 😀

Thanks!

Thanks to everyone who came to visit our stand at #fosdem . We showed off a couple of new devices this year like the PineVoice home assistant speaker and the new PineTime Pro prototype. A lot of the discussion topics we had at FOSDEM will make it into a new community blog post. Including what this year will look like considering DRAM prices.

We had a lot of fun meeting you all, safe travels everyone!

If you have bricked your PineTab2 you can now follow this new recovery tutorial on the documentation. It includes links to all the files and tools required to complete the process. A visual tutorial is also coming soon similar to my PineNote videos.

Getting some work done on my PineTab2 at school today using the #DanctNIX Arch firmware.

#pinetab2 #pine64

Community member hrdl has released an Arch based image which includes their new display driver. Overall responsiveness has significantly increased since the last demo. The setup uses a sway config that allows brightness and display modes to be changed quickly.

PineNote users can find the image and instructions at their sourcehut repo

Quick update:
There was a miscommunication concerning the future of ARM devices in the recent Mastodon post announcing the discontinuation of the PinePhone Pro.

New devices from PineStore will continue to come with ARM SOCs and will not be going away in favor of RISC-V models. Devices will continue releasing with variations like the PineTab2 and PineTab-V.

This should have been communicated earlier so we apologize.

Have a great weekend!

Happy April (no fools this year)!

Another community update is here. This month we report on the return of the PineTab-V, the release of our micro soldering tip set, the imminent release of the StarPro64 SBC and software improvements to the PineTab 2 and PineNote.

And Charlie the Pinecorn returns for April too 😉 .

Awesome! #PineVox is the product I'm really interested in, although I'm stoked to hear more about the #PineCam, too. Hopefully it does well and you release an upgraded 12mp camera version, even if it's twice the price. Either way, easy #HomeAssistant integration would really make this blow up.

#Pine64

These updates where once driver of a prosperous community. Now they only come when new poducts are announced?

I think #pine64 should focus more on supporting development for their existing line-up than developing new niche devices. Or they will face the same fate as the many existing unsuccessful products!

What has become of the DevZone? It could really help overcome hampers in dev. which would have great impact on maturity, comunity and trust!
+In the end sales and thus finance itself

Let us blow your mind this weekend 🤯
