Ehi,
I'm sure this has been asked already, but I couldn't find any reference.
How does the BTO queue works exactly? I signed up for a pinebook but I didn't even receive a confirmation email, is that normal?
Will I receive the coupon only when it's my turn in line?

Hi all,
after successful download and compile, I'm facing to the problem of writing an SD card with the Android 8 Image for my Rock64 board.
Is there a script to do the task?
Anybody knows where to get info about partitioning and writing image to the SD card?
I tried Etcher, but I have no output on the console.
Although, the stock image runs fine, so seems to me definitely a partitioning problems...
Any help?

Please check out and give a try:

Hi!

I'm trying to get my monitor to run at 4K (3840x2160) over either HDMI or USB-C using a DisplayPort adapter, but having no luck.

For USB-C/DP. I get no image when booting.

For HDMI, the system boots, but xrandr and the LXDE monitor settings app do not detect 3840x2160 as a resolution (maxes out at 1920x1080).  I have used this monitor with this cable at 4K resolution on an Asus Tinkerboard also running lubuntu, so I feel confident that the monitor supports the resolution.

Does anyone have any pointers for either get USB-C/DP to work at all, or HDMI to detect 4k?

Thanks!

is there any virtual machine manager that will work on an arm host?
I realize that would probably mean arm client machines would perform much better if they were for arm architecture as well (implied)

Hello guys!

I just bought a Rock64 board and plan to use it for building a car infotainment system.
I've previously used an Odroid XU4 but since I need a device with possibility of adding a DAC hat I switched to Rock64.

I have several questions regarding the board since this is the first Pine64 product I have.

1. I see that the official Android builds for Rock64 have this TV-ish launcher and have some limitations in terms of app compatibility (ex Hangouts). I also saw a post from one of the moderators/admins that there is an early build of "Regular" Android for Rock64. 
Is there an approximate ETA when this rom will be available officially?

2. I used a smart power supply with Odroid XU4 for shutting it down automatically when I turn off car ignition . Odroid has a PWR_ON pin which shuts down the device when connected to 1.8-5v power pin. So the power supply simply closes the connection between PWR_ON and 1.8v pin when I turn the ignition off. I see that there is no such pin on Rock64. 
So my question is if I can connect the power supply to the power button pins to achieve the same result? The power supply should close the connection between pins and hold it for around 2-3 seconds so the shutdown dialog would appear. Is there also an option to shut down the device without "Restart/Reboot" dialog box?

3. Is it possible to use GPIO pins with official Android roms or are there any GPIO libraries (ex wiringPI) available for Rock64 which can be implemented into the kernel?

I guess since many people use SBCs in their cars I will create a step by step tutorial on how to create a CarPC with Rock64 in this thread since I didn't find any existing ones. So it would be quite useful for them to find the answers to the most relevant questions here.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

I see that OpenBSD's man pages indicate compatibility with various GigE chipsets, but Asix AA88179 is not among them.

(1) Should an Asix AA88179 GigE with and/or without a 3-port USB 3.0 hub work on OpenBSD?
Amendment: man usb shows
axen(4)ASIX Electronics AX88179 10/100/Gigabit USB Ethernet device
so, my question is about both GigE and the hub working (well) together.

(2) Does the 100BT of the audio dac add-on card work on OpenBSD?
Amendment: From
10/100Mbps MegJack on Audio DAC POT board Datasheet - http://files.pine64.org/doc/rock64/DGKYD...6GWA1D.pdf
I see ethernet as merely a feed-through from the board, but my original question remains.

(3) If unknown, shouldDoes the audio of the audio dac add-on card work on OpenBSD?

(4) That is, what driver does it use?

(5) And, worth a mention, does its audio work on OpenBSD?

(4) Can you specify other solutions involving USB 3.0 hubs with GigE?

If you missed your BTO for the Pinebook then please read this announcement.

Hi all. During a recent office reshuffle I had to dismantle all pc's and auxiliary stuff. In the process I pulled the power cord on the ROCK 64  without powering the board down. Now it will not power up. No sign of life atm. No led's - no sign of life. The board was set up to boot off emmc and has a hard drive attached via usb to sata adaptor. Any ideas where to look? Not sure what is going on.

If for example the correct power supply was used then I should get at least one led - is that correct. Have I missed any pre-requisites?

Hi,
I would like to install Android 8.1 on my Rock64 4G.

Will I be able to run Android without touchscreen... with keyboard and mouse (USB connected)?
Thanks
