if anyone could help with this it would be really good, I think its the last thing stopping it from working.

Have you install gemain-desktop?

Have you also tried to run apt-get -f install? Also try and install kernel headers.

Hey thanks for your response,
Could you let me know what to type into terminal?

you have to unlock the file (with a command thats ambiguous to new users) before you can edit it with hexedit.

is it just "chmod " command ?

chattr -i

It says in the wiki for debianTP ( https://github.com/gemian/gemini-keyboard-apps/wiki/DebianTP ) you need to update the android system image to get audio working in calls.
On this page ( https://github.com/gemian/gemini-keyboard-a...dSystemLXCImage ) it shows how to do it but my md5 output isnt listed. Nor is it listed on the planet firmware page for android.
I was wondering weather it would be safe to do the update anyway?
Thanks

my system image is: 412fd070ba98b8f863cbddb50b09d2d3

Gemini PDA - Linux / cant apt upgrade, have tried fixes

<<  cant edit mac address in hexedit, it says read only. so wifi settings arent remembered. >>

the "read only" problem is because you are not root when you edit a file system.

the fix was from this thread: https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showto...mp;#entry292144

just need to get sound from the phone app now.

to install ofono scripts, have you do this (in root) ?

systemctl enable ofono
systemctl start ofono
apt install ofono-scripts

ok so ive got wifi auto connecting after reboot, it remembers my password now. you have to unlock the file (with a command thats ambiguous to new users) before you can edit it with hexedit.
only issue now is that theres no sound when making a call...

you have to be root (admin) to do that.

enter :
sudo -s
< your password>

tried it as root but got the same error

have you try this ?

TUTORIAL :
[3.5.1] ADD REPOSITORY ARCHIVE KEY  ( if system is brocken )  
&
[3.5.2] LOCALE  

This solve the libreoffice problem & update broken.
And your locales is not set (top of your screenshot)

yeah i have added the archive key, that worked fine cant change locales from your guide though

hey im going through the resources on updating my debian install from planet computers guide and the wiki/ forums. however there are still a few niggling issues.

1 cant edit mac address in hexedit, it says read only. so wifi settings arent remembered.

2 calls dont work (no audio) - maybe fixed with apt upgrade but...

3 cant do apt upgrade because of common libreoffice problem. ive tried multiple documented fixes. screenshot of issue attatched.

Thanks
