I recently purchased a Rockpro64. Installed this Android Image. Android 7.1.2 Stock Image [microSD Boot] [20180515] found in the Wiki.
However, it is always on LandScape Mode. I have tried changing the HDMI Orientations, tried several Orientation apps. Always treating it as a landscape device. Could anyone shed light on this, please?

If you're looking for a clean/standard solution, this isn't it - just a fun presentation.

I threw this together mostly because the board was asking to have something dropped/spilled/shorted on it otherwise, and I wanted a somewhat durable/attractive way to show off it and whatever might be running on it. Found the case on Amazon and ended up having to Dremel out the center anchors for the lid, and I just epoxied the standoffs in place. Initially regretted using the Rustoleum spray paint I had around, but now I kind of like the effect with LEDs behind.

Plan is to use the spare Pi as a display head with the 7" LCD that's pretty terrible quality but actually fits inside over the Pi/module-free portion of the clusterboard.



This thing is a light show, I love it.

Dear All,

Item (4) of PINE A64-LTS 's main page <-- https://www.pine64.org/?page_id=46823
show that there is 802.11BGN + bluetooth 4.0 including in the board.
But someone told me, I need to buy a "802.11BGN/BLUETOOTH 4.0 MODULE" separately.

The price of PINE A64-LTS ($32) is included "802.11BGN/BLUETOOTH 4.0 MODULE" or not?

Thanks a lot!

Just got a text notification from USPS that my RockPro64 arrived in the mail today, so tonight I'll finally have the opportunity to build some images for that as well. Anyway, please enjoy and feel free to provide feedback! [emoji111]️

If you install a debian free software system cf free software foundation what devices on the computer will
not work?
Thanks.

Hi All, 

I'm quite new to pine and coding. Now I'm looking to make my pine A64 connected to my TV to play 4k video's by simply turning on the TV. (it's going to be at a display, where it has to be controlled by every noob). Can anyone help me out? Thnx!

Does this get free vpu software for the rock64?
Thank you.

Searching for videos where the computer runs as a desktop computer gives not much result.
In question are videos showing how the rock64 works if running debian or armbian. Benchmark
videos tell numbers I cannot relate to.

Any videos showing how rock64 performs if it does common computer tasks? Simultaneously running a
browser, 5 tabs open, a youtube video and a file manager and a media player and libre office or
a picture editor. What are the latencies? Does rock64 start to falter?
In short can a rock64 desktop run similar to a
modest x86 notebook?
Thanks.

Unlike the amd64 Ubuntu, here w(1), who(1) and uptime(1) don't count the user if logged through LXDE. (If logged torough SSH, they do.) To test, log in through LXDE, open LXterminal and type "w", "who", or "uptime". You won't be shown as a logged in user. (In the amd64 Ubuntu, you will be.) I think that this is a bug, but don't know whether it's a kernel bug or not.

Has anyone done some testing regarding how well a RockPro64 works as a Plex Media Server?

Direct Streaming media shouldn't be a problem of course. But how about those instance when the server would have to transcode a video or audio stream?

In my setup most of my streaming would be done locally over the network to clients without the need of any transcoding. I'd only need power to transcode one video/audio stream at a time, for the few occasions when I'm not at home.
