I have two 2G boards. I am having issues with sound... they both used to play sound, however not any more. I have reflashed OS multiple times and nothing. Any advice?

Thank you

  ayufan's bionic minimal boots only the first time
Posted by: fczuardi - 07-07-2018, 01:44 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (6)

I got my rockpro64 and I am trying to get it running, I have created a sd card with the image bionic-minimal-rockpro64-0.7.3-1040-arm64.img.xz

The first boot works seamlessly, the white LED is on, hdmi tv is detected and login with rock64/rock64 takes me to the shell...

But if I turn the computer off and on again, nothing happens anymore: no LED, no signal on hdmi...

Any ideas on how to get more information or what might be happening?

Team, 

Trying to load apps on the google play store and keep getting a warning for "Error: Your Content Filtering Level does not allow you to purchase this item." .... The app I am attempting to DL, Amazon Video. Running > Android 6.0 (HDMI Video Output) [20170112 v2.0.1]. I have relaxed all User Controls in settings, and no change to the "Error". 

Little help on how to remove this control. Thank you,
Ted

  RFE for next ROCK64
Posted by: mcerveny - 07-06-2018, 04:19 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (4)

Hello.

I have some enhancement suggestion for next update of ROCK64:

  1. connector for RTC battery for RK805
  2. connector for RESET and POWERON
    - needed for external control (power on by event)
  3. connector for true PoE/PoE+/4PPoE (802.3af/802.3at/802.3bt with mode a,b,a+b over 1gbit) with 1GBit connector+magnetics for example "EDAC A70-112-331N126" or "LINK-PP LPJG0926HENL" (must be carefully routed with operating up to 600mA@57V and with PoE isolation requirements)
  4. connector between barrel power connector and board power (both pins, with installed jumpers from factory) that can be used for:
    - internal (in case) DC/DC converter (also isolated variant) from higher voltage (12V)
    - combined DC from embedded UPS battery with cooperation with external DC
    - combined DC from PoE DC/DC with cooperation with external DC (also possibility to supply any DC to external component back over DC connector (available power +-10W reserved for ROCK64 from 12.95W(PoE)/25.50W(PoE+)/51W(4PPoE) (for external powered usb hub, speakers, small lcd panel, camera, positioning motors, ...)))
  5. power distribution over mounting holes connected to barrel power connector selectable with pinheaders/jumpers (probably with additional internal DC/DC converter from previous point to compensate voltage drop for massive stacking) - see Paralella
  6. connector (with installed jumper from factory) to unselect internal SPI (SPI_CSN0_M2) (but with possibility to boot from external SPI flash directly from embedded ROM over PI-2 connector)
  7. larger internal SPI to accommodate boot+stripped_down_kernel+ramdisk miniroot with something like NOOBS (New Out Of the Box Software) distribution download from internet and etcher flash to local SDCARD/eMMC
  8. maybe connector with PMEB+VCC33_LAN+GND (or embed this to board - 1xLDO + 3xdiode? (untested)) from RTL8211F to implement Wake-on-LAN (WoL) with external logic but VCC33_LAN must be reworked to supply RTL8211F chip externally too. Example scenario (untested):
    1) new attach of PoE (ethernet connector) or external DC must start rk3328+rk805 to setup/config RTL82211F for WoL (actual behavior due to C736)
    2) PoE or external DC still available (eg. VCC_SYS==5V) but rk3328+rk805 is down (eg. no BUCK4 VCC_IO->VCC33_LAN) and VCC33_LAN externally over pin or with own LDO from VCC_SYS (combined power with diodes?)
    3) PMEB should signal WoL to pin or to POWERON (over diode or transistor)
  9. Colored connector like TinkerBoard or adafruit
  10. USB and power test pads from bottom to stack USB peripherals like RPI ZERO USB hub
  11. Add some programmable peripheral co-processor like 8-bit (AVR) or 32-bit (ARM M0+) or other hw peripheral rich chip (connected with i2c+interrupt to RK3328, connected to RESET/POWERON to RK805, serial firmware programming with external connection, maybe "alway-on" (not RK805) powered also on vBAT...) for programmable hw tasks like true PWM (motor or fan speed control), A/D (also for independent voltage/current board monitor), programmable sw logic, WoL monitor, external watchdog, oneWire bridge, IR transmitter ... with connection on PI2 unusable pins (11,12,13,24(SPI CSN0),29,31 and maybe 32-40)
  12. Add some simple undervoltage detector (op-amp comparator) to driver green led (LED705) (bicolor led (green/red) may be better)

I estimate material expenses about $1 (~14 pinheaders, ~3 diodes, ~1 LDO and replace "HANRUN HR911130A" to "LINK-PP LPJG0926HENL") + $0.5-$2 for coprocessor.

Something like this:

  Purchase Cart Interface on Quanitity
Posted by: eaterofpis - 07-06-2018, 02:39 PM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

So it seems people are limited to 5x amount of any particular type of board on each order. Example, one is restricted to only adding 5x Rock64 (2GB). One minor workaround is adding 5x of a different type such as Rock64 (4GB) or 5x Pine64. 

It becomes a problem if those are not the type of board you want or if  you're looking to buy larger quantities of a specific soc. 

I think one can break larger purchase into multiple orders but it can feel like an inconvenience from a shopper pov.

On the flip side, i do understand that there's a flat shipping rate. And for instance, shipping say 50 boards order  under a fixed flat rate $8 as opposed to shipping 5 boards, would not be ideal from a business and cost perspective.

Is there a middle ground to this? Like flat rates when quantity of each type in the cart does not exceed 5, but system cart switches to a variable rate when a quantity type is greater than 5?

Hi, I am having trouble checking down the connector and FPC info and were to get them? Can someone direct me to a link. 
I would like to put a small adapter board together for a 8MP sensor.

Hi all,

I am using centos7.4, and want to change the mac address? Can someone assest me the right direction? How to change the mac address of the Pine64. I found that link but I cant understand the logic. DTS
P.S. I am totally newbie, so step by step instructions would be helpfull.

  Display limited to 800x600 [SOLVED]
Posted by: Averell - 07-06-2018, 08:04 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (16)

Hello,
I used the Pine64 installer to install a "Community Debian Stretch Mate". Indicated version, in July 2018 is : 0.5.15
Beautiful installer, everything fine but the display : it is locked to 800x600, and somewhere a message indicates that the display card is not recognised. I thought I would find a solution and set up the Linux, and used it for some time. But nothing was found to fix the display problem.
Further tests showed that only the 0.6.x versions give me the normal resolution of the display (1280 x 1024 DVI). I tried with :

  • Community Debian Stretch Mate (0.5 : Bad) Angry
  • Community Debian Stretch Minimal (0.6 : OK) Smile
  • Community Bionic Lxde (0.6 : OK) Smile
  • Community Xenial Mate (0.5 : Bad) Angry
I found later that Ayufan builds really work from 0.6 versions. It is regretful that the 0.5 versions are not yet replaced in the Pine64 installer.

A good desktop experience

Question : is it possible to fix the problem in the installed 0.5 version, or is it necessary to start all over from scratch ?

A strange phenomenon : The defective Debian runs on the eMMC. I tried to flash a SD card with a Bionic 0.6 version. Tested on a second Rock64 : fine. I put the SD card in the first Rock64 : The Bionic is launched, but the display is 800x600. At first, I thought the Rock64 was defective. Then I tried to remove the eMMC card : then the Bionic starts with the 1280,1024 resolution. What can be the reason ? Are some files read first on the eMMC card, when a SD card is present ?

Thanks if someone has a suggestion. I would hate to reinstall everything.
But what I really like with this little thing is the perfect silence.
