Wiki version of Android 7.1 not working with touchscreen
#1
So after a few attempts, I have managed to get my Pine A64 to boot using the LCD touchscreen, however whilst the touchscreen shows Android fine, it has to be used with a keyboard and mouse as the touch part doesn't seem to be working.

I have everything working with Android 5.1.1 LCD screen version (showing image and touchscreen working) so I think everything hardware wise is working. 

The exact version I am running is
http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pine_A6....10-r66.5D (the none TV version) 

Can anyone offer any suggestions.

Just one - try a newer (pre-release) version. As a side-note, I suggest using Android 6.0 instead, as it has much better performance.
As a side note, sometime in March we'll be getting Android 8 for the A64 ... hopefully it will have better performance than 7.1.
You can find me on IRC, Discord and Twitter

Android 8 would be cool too. - I might give that pre-release a go.

The Android 6 image didn't work (I tried flashing it a couple of times), the A64 pretty much turned on then off straight away which is why I've been using the Android 5.1.1 version; which is working fine for now - but obviously android 5 is aging.

Could you perhaps share with me what you did to get the device to even boot? I've been trying the entire day, and all I get is a blank screen. Did you have to modify the uEnv.txt file?
