Hi, if I want to utilize GPIO ports for buttons and such should I be choosing an OS other than Android / Remix?  I dont see any documentation on how to get access to those inputs from Android.
If you wish to access GPIO from Python under Linux : http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=647

Depends. Remember at its base Android evolved from linux. So the basics may be there to allow very basic gpio function but in all honesty you will have an easier time in linux.
