  Android 9.0 Playstore?
Posted by: bangity - 08-08-2019, 06:09 PM - Forum: Android on Pine H64 - No Replies

Hello,

I have android 9.0 working fine. However, when I try to sideload the google playstore and google play services apk. It immediately posts error (like this application was crashed).

Is there a working playstore apk? This is for model B

Thank you.


  Rock64 board seems defective, how to confirm?
Posted by: Josk - 08-08-2019, 01:35 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (1)

Hi all!

I have a 4GB Rock64 that has never been able to run any image for more than a few minutes without a kernel panic or a complete freeze. It usually happens within seconds of booting. At first I assumed I had just been unlucky with my image choices, but over the past few days I've gone through probably a dozen different images, Linux as well as Android, and nothing seems to work (though Android images typically run ok right up until the mouse cursor shows up on the screen). I'm booting from sd and I've tried two different cards. Is there anything else I can try that would possibly get this working? Any recommendations for a super-stable image to try? Or something like a memtest image that could help me diagnose the problem?
Unfortunately I bought this last year so it is no longer under warranty, but I would at least really like to confirm that it is a hopeless case before I throw it out the window.


  How does this compare with the Tinkerboard S?
Posted by: dazza5000 - 08-08-2019, 10:54 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (1)

Has anyone used both of these boards?

How does it compare against the Tinkerboard S? I can't find an orea or pie build for the Tinkerboard S which is concerning me.

Thank you,

Darran


  128GB and ANSI
Posted by: rockrock - 08-08-2019, 09:21 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (4)

Assuming I'm on the list to get the 128GB upgrade, what are the odds the second batch comes with the ANSI keyboard.

Or, once the ANSI keyboards are open to the public, how much more will the 128GB version be. I see that the 128GB eMMC is $20 more than the 64 in the store, would this be a reasonable price point for the laptop upgrade, or would I have to buy that chip separately?

Thanks.


EDIT: Since I'm here, is there a way to tell if I made it on the pre-order list?

  Android 9 + DAC addon card with rock64
Posted by: AlexS - 08-08-2019, 03:10 AM - Forum: Android on Rock64 - No Replies

So after upgrade to android 9 9TV) audio DAC SPDIF output does not work anymore.
That poor unsupported sbc is absolutely unusable. The only Android version worked on it was 7.1
And no updates anymore.
Dead project


  Underclocking the Rock64 (latest stable linux image)
Posted by: va88 - 08-07-2019, 09:36 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (2)

Hey guys, I was using armbian, but got some SD corruption and had to start from scratch.
I decided to use the latest stable release of Ubuntu from ayufan.
Googling around I found a guide on overclocking the Rock64, but I actually want to underclock the CPU to top at 1008 Mhz, so I won't need a heatsink or a fan.
How do I do this?
On Armbian there was a one line command that did that.

Thanks!


  PCIe ath10k on RockPro64
Posted by: dasfranky - 08-07-2019, 07:26 AM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (5)

Hi,
I am trying to get a QCA988X wifi miniPCIe module to work. 
I am using adapter from miniPCIe to to the PCIe x4 slot. All in chain should support PCIe 2.1 spec. 

As far as I get is to get the module recognized in lspci. 
Kernel module ath and  ath10k_core are loaded. But I think ath10k_pci is missing. When I compile a custom kernel with this module, or compile a module to the existing kernel, I always get kernel panic on loading the module. (modprobe -v ath10k_pci).

Some ideas on how to get the card to work?

Yes I need exactly that card.


  4 GB RAM limit
Posted by: cmeerw - 08-07-2019, 07:08 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (67)

My understanding is that there currently is a fairly hard 4 GB RAM limit (due to the SoC) which seems very annoying to me. What are the chances of seeing something with 8 GB anytime soon? I mean, are there any SoCs on the horizon that don't have that limit and a PBP2 could be based on?


  Video player on Debian buster
Posted by: klode - 08-06-2019, 03:30 AM - Forum: Armbian - No Replies

I want to know if I can have a video player for H264 working on my Debian Buster (from armbian.com).

I've tested mpv with the command:

Code:
mpv --vo=vdpau --hwdec=vdpau --hwdec-codecs=all video.mp4


but I got this error:
Code:
[vo/vdpau] Error when calling vdp_device_create_x11:1
Error opening/initializing the selected video out (--vo) device.

I've installed the Cedrus/libvdpau-sunxi library from here:

sunxi

Even with VLC I cannot play H264 video properly.
