So I accidentally flashed an sd to emmc image on my emmc module.  When the rock64 would not boot I took it back out and threw it back into the usb emmc adapter I got from pine64 and windows now only sees this as 15GB instead of 32GB.  I've tried to use diskpart to delete and clean everything, but nothing seems to work to get my emmc module back to working condition.  I've booted my rock64 with an SD card and used the /usr/local/bin/rock64_reset_emmc.sh script, but that doesn't seem to do anything to the emmc module itself.  I've tried to DD the entire thing, and still nothing.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can somehow fix these modules so I can throw new images on them??

Thanks!

Posted by: thatguyyouknowtheone - 02-02-2019, 06:26 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (2)

Hey guys, I followed this guide to a Tee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gT-EGNl9bZA&t=3s

I can login to the OMV just fine with my IP otherwise tho. Ive googled the problem extensively and changed jsut about every network or otherwise mentioned setting and still to no avail with rebooting NAS and comp at every step. Help? 

TIA


  USB powered externall hard drive not powering
Posted by: Shilelis - 02-02-2019, 08:26 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (5)

Hi, I just got rock pro 64 and wanted to attach external hard drive powered via USB (no additional power cables), but it doesn't power up. The drive works fine if it's attached to a laptop, so the problem is with rock pro 64. Does anyone know if it supposed to power it up - in other words, should it deliver enough power to power up external USB drive (2.5 inch SSD) like a laptop does?

Rock pro 64 does have on board sata power connector that is used to power sata drive connected through the PCIe x4, so I believe it should be capable of powering a USB SATA drive - but this is just a speculation.


  Scandinavian or alternate PineBook Keyboard?
Posted by: GreenThing - 02-02-2019, 06:44 AM - Forum: Pinebook Hardware and Accessories - Replies (8)

I was quick to join the forum when I read about the PineBook Pro news.
I'm really excited about it and am definetly planning to get one, but there is a catch.
I can't find any info online regarding the keyboard, if there are replacements with scandinavian layout and so on.
Is my google kung fu that bad or isnt there a discussion at all about it?
I would love to have a pro as a daily driver but then I have a creteria regarding the keyboard and I'm afriad it's what is going to stop me from getting one.

I know that a remapping is possible and I've done that before, it just becomes a hassle with other things in my opinion and a native layout is always better.

Am I the only one who would want a scandinavian keyboard?
I would be more than willing to pay for it.


  EasyOS 1.0.4 running on Rock64
Posted by: BarryK - 02-02-2019, 04:45 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (2)

For anyone who is interested:

http://bkhome.org/news/201902/easyos-ver...ock64.html

To get a quick overview of what EasyOS is all about, see here:

https://easyos.org/about/how-and-why-eas...erent.html

I have been running Easy on the Rock64 for several days, it is completely stable, have been compiling huge packages, such as LibreOffice and the kernel.

Regarding the kernel, thanks to ayufan, I just downloaded from his repo, patched aufs and simplified the .config (mostly took out debugging stuff).


Booted from SD card, I have not yet tried putting it onto the eMMC.

Regards,
BarryK


  Armbian Bionic 4.19.y
Posted by: PigLover - 02-01-2019, 07:01 PM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (1)

The "supported" release of Armbian for the soPine works great on the baseboard - but on the released version networking doesn't work with it on the clusterboard.  Once you fix networking it appears that this release is pretty solid.  Only problem that remains is the hand-on-reboot.  That one is puzzling to me...

It doesn't look like the fixes upstreamed by @aww made it into the "next" release...

You can fix the DTB and get it to work as follows (thanks to @aww and Xalius) but you have to "freeze" armbian kernel/firmware updates or it will get over-written by apt when updating (use armbian-config to free the updates).

(02-17-2018, 05:30 PM)aww Wrote: With Xalius's help I was able to get networking working with a mainline kernel on the Arch Build. You need to adjust the network delay for the nic:

Quote:<Xalius> if you go to /boot/dtbs/allwinner
<Xalius> there is a sun50i-a64-sopine-baseboard.dtb
<Xalius> you can convert it back to text with 
<Xalius> dtc -I dtb -O dts -o mystuff.dts sun50i-a64-sopine-baseboard.dtb
<Xalius> then
<Xalius> edit 
<Xalius> nano mystuff.dts
<Xalius> and convert it back to binary
<Xalius>  dtc -I dts -O dtb -o sun50i-a64-sopine-baseboard.dtb mystuff.dts

The fields to add are: 

Quote:<Xalius> allwinner,tx-delay-ps = <500>;

<Xalius> allwinner,rx-delay-ps = <500>

And here is a pastebin of where to add it, with it added. 

https://pastebin.com/dU1ai6Xt


After that reboot! And networking should now work with the mainline kernel, I am also going to see if there is a way to get this into future builds so you don't even have to think about it.

I presume the "better" fix previously upstreamed by @aww should fix it too.


  Sales channels like Ebay's Global Shipping Program and Amazon
Posted by: asoltesz - 02-01-2019, 04:37 AM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

Seeing the news articles about the new Pinebook Pro, I definitely think that sales of Pine64 will be much higher than before.

It seems to me that Pine64 should definitely make the purchase and delivery process much less painful in order to handle the new sales levels.

For me, the biggest pain point is that I have to handle the customs process myself which is expensive and tiresome.

Both Ebay and Amazon provides proper solutions for this problem. You pay all import duties in advance at checkout and the product gets shipped to your doorstep. No customs hassle, no extra processing fees, you just get the product delivered.

I would definitely pay 10-15 bucks more for a Pinebook / Pinebook Pro if it came via the Ebay Global Shipping Program or Amazon. I loose this money as extra customs processing fee anyways. Also, in this product category, you will have to pay the import duties as well in most countries so there is no point in hoping that it slips through the customs office and one doesn't have to pay the duties at all.

I heard in a Youtube interview that Pine64 is planning changes in the sales mechanism.

Will the Pinebooks become available via Ebay or Amazon any time soon?

Holy crap so awesome!!!

So stoked on this! But more excited for the upgrade path for the PB14!

I've been using my pinebook heavily for the past year or so and it's served me awesomely. Really excited on this news.


  Is my Rock64 is dead ?
Posted by: totalgaara - 01-31-2019, 05:42 PM - Forum: Rock64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (9)

Hi, I have a problem with my Rock64 and I would like to know your opinion and if it is possible to find a solution.

Until 2 months ago, I was using my Rock64 as an Android TV, it wasn't constantly plugged in. Then I couldn't use it since, so I put it in my desk (in a drawer).

I now have time again and I would like to use it again except... there is a problem. When I plug in the (original) plug the all the rock64 LEDs start flashing, and nothing happens on the screen, on the power supply I can hear a little "click". So I thought that the problem came from the power supply, even if it's strange, I made a multimeter measurement, I have 5~5.2V at the output.

I then checked the physical integrity of the ROCK64 and except for a few strange little "dirt" (because it was well stored).

I can't tell if it is rust or not, it's strange, inside a desk and there is no "water source" or anything near.

Tested with and without SD Card, with and without emmc and it still the same.

Do you think i can do something to fix it ? i love that device, i'm so sad it's not working anymore, I've always made sure to store it properly so it doesn't get damaged and in the end I feel like it's worse than better.
