Gemini PDA - Android / Anyone able to upload files from browsers?

« on: June 04, 2018, 03:50:23 pm »

I've been trying for ages to find a way to get an upload dialogue any time I try to upload a picture to facebook, attach something to an email, send something over discord....
The links in the page to do so light up as having being clicked, but no upload dialogue appears giving me the option to select anything.

So far I've tried different web browsers (including older versions to see if it was just a version compatibility issue), installing multiple different file managers, all to no avail. The same problem is present exactly the same whichever browser/file manager combination I'm using.
I've tried fiddling with the apps' permissions with no success and am at my wits' end, since this is a basic function I need my device to perform if I'm going to be using it for work while travelling.

*Clicks "Browse..."*
*Laughs as it does nothing*

Gemini PDA - General Discussion / No audio on first answering calls

« on: May 21, 2018, 03:38:31 pm »

So, I'm still at a loss on figuring out how to get the phone to have audio when I answer a call.
Currently the only thing that works is to physically open the clamshell, and then tap the speaker button.
I tried toggling the setting under Gemini Settings to "always answer calls in speaker mode" but this doesn't change anything, since it needs to be answered from the screen, not the side button for this to work.
Calls always pick up with no audio, and I have to open up the Gemini, and manually turn it to speaker to hear the person.
Needless to say, this is a bit of an issue when it comes to using it as a phone.

Any suggestions for an option I am missing?

Gemini PDA - Linux / Has anyone managed to get it to recognise the ethernet in their hub like it does in Android?

Trying to hook my gemini up to my LAN (I don't have wifi at home, it's a short story involving my walls being concrete and rebar faraday cages) but I cannot even get the terminal to respond to ifconfig commands. Any help? First time on Debian, so used to having the handy graphical interface for network config of Ubuntu, any equivalents to that here that I am missing?

Gemini PDA - Android / Has anyone managed to get a 4G or 3G connection to Virgin in the UK?

« on: May 18, 2018, 09:11:17 am »

I've just been trying to get android set up on my gemini, having just renewed my old 3G SIM to a 4G one last month, and grabbed an unlimited data contract to take full advantage of my new Gemini, but it seems to have issues connecting and I just get a constant "no service" message for Virgin. How do I get it configured? I've been trying manually entering the correct APN settings etc. to no avail.
