Only you can answer the why. See http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=293 for Kernel history.
I'm running into the same issue (only 1GB detected in the 2GB model) and I found this thread via Google.
I followed your instructions to install the new kernel, but after upgrading it can still see only 1GB:
Code:
javilm@pine64pro:~$ uname -a
Linux pine64pro 3.10.102-0-pine64-longsleep #7 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jun 17 21:30:48 CEST 2016 aarch64 GNU/Linux
javilm@pine64pro:~$ cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 1003836 kB
MemFree: 778320 kB
Buffers: 9492 kB

I'm assuming there's something I'm doing wrong or that I missed some step somewhere. Could you let me know what you'd need from me in order to troubleshoot this?
Thanks in advance,
Any luck with this?
I am having the same issue.

Thanks
, I will give it a try and update once I do.
I am also suspecting hardware issue.

So for sure that is a hardware issue right? There is no BIOS update like procedure for the board that I can do as we usually do in PCs?
what about running a memory tester just to see what happens ?

I installed Armbian and this is what I get one login

You can see the picture of the hardware, its a 2GB model but showing 1GB with all the OS i tried.
I have opened a claim to the seller now as a hardware fault.
