Below I am including links to the PSU and cables I am using and can affirm are viable for the Pine64. 
The links are to the Amazon UK store, but I am sure that you can find the items worldwide ...

This is exactly what is described by a few people as not being the proper type of supply to use... you "Smart" power adapter doesn't work with the pine because the pines power isn't designed like a cell phones it's not "Smart" and the supply only sends out the min 500ma... This has been mentioned in the forums and on the comments on the kickstarter if I remember correctly... So you should try a dumb power supply IMO...

here is a link I found to an earlier discussion regarding the smart power HERE

Right, ok, thank you for clarifying that for me. I wasn't aware of this. Will have to look further into this. That said, it has insofar worked flawlessly on the Pine64 and other demanding boards ...
