Does RockPro64 support UHS speed?
It seems that not many SBC have support the high speed SD bus due to the lower voltage requirement requires extra hardware to detect the type of card to switch to lower voltage and directly using lower voltage will breaking backward compatibility.
However, for a competent hardware like RockPro64 (2Ghz CPU, PCI-E, etc.), not having a fast SD card bus seems a bit of shame.

| Pine A64+review |

Back in August, I reviewed a Pine A64+ 2BG board, comparing it to the Raspberry Pi 3. For most of the hardware, the Pine A64+ was better than the Pi. Unfortunately, when it came to software availability, the Pine A64+ was behind the curve ... way behind. At that time, I thought that this problem would be fixed "soon". Based on what I'm seeing here, none of the "problems" that were noted in that review have been resolved.
http://www.accs.com/p_and_p/A64/index.html
Unfortunately, there's still no distribution with a modern (4.0+) Linux kernel linked from the download site ( http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pine_A6...re_Release ). What's the holdup here? Is there ANY release that supports the 4.0+ kernel? I'd be willing to get it from elsewhere, but I really want something current to work with.
It appears to me that they're still waiting for the GPU driver, although there could be other issues. Until the necessary code has been integrated into the Linux mainline, these computers will have limited usefulness. Once the product owners can offer a current Linux solution, with repositories, this excellent hardware will be in a position to gain market share.
Is there any update on the overall software situation?

Hi all, new to the forums here. I've had a Pine64 long running with OpenHAB. Recently something happened and I needed to put it on battery power. So I pulled it off it's nice shelf, and hooked it up with battery power. No issues. However, I do have a fan that came with the case. It plugged onto one of the pin sets to provide a fan over the SOC for cooling. When on battery power, it was looking to pull too much juice, so I disconnected it.
When I was done doing what I needed on battery power, I went to put things back together. I believe I may have plugged the fan power into a wrong pin set. Upon restart I was not able to get anything of use and I heard a funny noise and saw the fan start then stop immediately. Now it seems, when I attempt plugging this Pine into any power, I just get a solid red power LED and nothing else happens. No video output plugged into HDMI, No Ethernet connectivity, and no apparent signs of life.
What I'm curious of, is it possible I've somehow blown something in the board by putting the fan into the wrong pins? Or is it possible I've somehow triggered some special boot mode I don't understand? I'm just a bit lost as to what could cause this to not show any signs of life now.
Hoping someone here might have some insight as to how I can fully validate or knows if its just simply possible and very plausible I've fried something.

Again, my older Pine-64 board does this just fine. The Pine-64 LTS seems to have trouble.
I'm running the latest Armbian (for the touchscreen support, which I can't get working on Ubuntu+Mate).
Installed Chromium-browser.
It fails every time with the sad face icon that "something went wrong" and to reload. Which just repeats the cycle.
Any ideas as to how to get this fixed? No real error messages to speak of. If started from CLI:
Code: ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enble overridden by environment.
ERROR: sandbox_linuc.cc(375) InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gnu_process.
I guess the next step is to build from source, unless anyone has any better ideas.

On 11th August I had a mail containing a code. Can I see anywhere if the BTO order went through and the status of it?
Following the mail it says that the order is expected to ship in June which must be this year. So should I have patience or could I find the information somewhere?
