Question Regular Android build for Rock64?
Posted by: fender90 - 08-18-2018, 06:53 AM - Forum: Android on Rock64 - Replies (18)

Dear Pine64 team! Why don't you make a regular Android build for Rock64? The TV UI in the stock OS is almost unusable with touchscreens. No navbar and status bar so it is very inconvenient to connect to network or adjust the volume. I just don't get it. Are there any TECHNICAL limitations for rk3328 for making a regular android os? Rock64 is a really great product and has a great hardware but the software side is a lot of pain

  SPI timing diagram

Where can I find a timing diagram for the SPI interfaces?

It's not in the 3399 design guide or data sheet.


Sad Rock64 2GB Version Can't output 4K Signal
Posted by: leonqin - 08-17-2018, 12:37 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (1)

Hi Guys,

I'm new to Rock64. I made a retro-game platform for my son using Raspberry Pi 0 W. Now I'm going to make a 4K video player for myself.

I've got a brand new Rock64 with 2GB RAM onboard. I tried to use Android TV + Kodi combination. And Kodi can play the video file encoded in H.265 and 4K resolution very well. But I can't get 4K signal from my Rock64, it can only output 1080p signals to my Sony TV (It does support 4K resolution). Even 2160p option is unavailable in the HDMI settings of all the versions of ATV. 

Could someone tell me how to get 4K signal from my Rock64 with ATV?

Thanks a lot!


  Using GPIO pins
Posted by: smartdave - 08-17-2018, 12:22 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (12)

I am sure this is a basic question, but where can I get the python libraries for the Rockpro64.

I have tried the Rock64 from Laepo's github but I do not think they are right for the pro64 board.

When I did try them in Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic lxde OS build I am getting the following errors when I try to access the pins:

>>>Unable to export GPIO
>>>Unable to set GPIO Direction

Programming is fairly new to me, but I try to google everything before asking questions

Thanks

Dave

No matter what I do I can't get ethernet link up. I have tried three different distorts of *nix, including FreeBSD, Ambrian and Xenial with no luck. , three different cables, all known good and two working ethernet switches. What am I missing?


Exclamation Strange graphical "glitches"
Posted by: grpeople - 08-16-2018, 03:13 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (10)

hi, i recently bought a rock64 4gb board. i tried lakka 2.1.1, but it shows strange graphical glitches like "interferences" in menu and games and generally very low framerates (in this video frames are acceptable if not very good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5BNIRCjJoM). so i tried another power supply and another hdmi cable, but nothing changed. then i tried ayufan's arm64 bionic-lxde build + retroarch from libretro ppa. it's better than lakka, but problems persist: no in-game graphic glitches, but framerates are lower than video reviews. only the retroarch menu shows minor graphical glitches, like not working vsync and tearing. in general, video performances are not like in video reviews.

ps: i also tried different power supplies and differnt screens.

cheers,
Gioele


  connect lvds display to rock64?
Posted by: heocb - 08-16-2018, 11:17 AM - Forum: Rock64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (1)

If you want to make a rock64 notebook can you connect
a lvds display to the computer?

Is a 10 inch hdmi display more expensive than
a similar lvds display?
Thank you.
