Hello, I am trying to find or how to build a volumio image for the Rock64 4g with the added DAC addon board. I am currently using RPi 3 with HiFiBerry DAC running Volumio in my car for Very high end music competitions. I want to upgrade to the ROCK64 because of the speed and USB3 for faster read times on the attached 2TB SSD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Android Oreo release can display on Pine LCD?

Is there any setting required in source code?

Hi, I hope someone will be able to help me. I've been trying to make it work for days.

My goal is to use the Pine64 with Android and the touchscreen to debug a game using Unity Remote. 
The board is PineA64+ 1GB, the touchscreen is the one from the Pine64 store (https://www.pine64.org/?product=7-lcd-to...reen-panel), the SD card is the 32GB card from the store (https://www.pine64.org/?product=32gb-microsd), and the Android is the 6.0.1 for LCD (http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pine_A6...0170209.5D).
My computer OS is macOS Sierra (10.12.6).
 
I've installed the Android SDK using Android Studio (version 23.0.3 of the build-tools, since I use Android 6.0.1). When I use 'adb devices' to list the devices, it is not listed. But when I go to System Information to check if it's even detected, under Hardware > USB, nothing appears. So it seems that is not that 'adb' doesn't recognize the device, but the USB connection doesn't appear to be there; the computer doesn't detect it.

USB debugging is on, I've tried changing the USB mode between MTP and PTP, I've tried different USB ports from my laptop (if I connect my phone, Android too, it works in both), I've tried different USB cables, I've tried the different USB ports in the board (using Linux the USB ports work well, so I assume is something with Android, and not the board).

Could anyone help me? Should I use Android 5.1.1? Do I need to change some configuration, or install some app?

Thank you and best regards.

Hi,

I am exploring my Rock64 and everything is currently going well.  It happily boots up and the Ethernet connection works perfectly.

The one thing that is odd is that only the green light on the Ethernet connection is lit.  It flashes periodically and I definitely have connectivity so things are working.  It is odd because almost every Ethernet connection that I have seen in the past have a solid green light to show the connection and a flashing yellow one to show traffic.  I do see that the Ethernet connector has a yellow light, but it is not lit.  Is this normal?

Thank you!

Hi from Czech Republic, i am satisfied with my Pinebook 14", running original Linux MATE, however as I was changing slide bar of the screen brightness via touchpad, as i think there is no hardware shortcut like "Fn+something", i accidentally moved it to zero % and then manually switched off the Pinebook via long hold of the power button, so the screen is now after every log-in totally dark. I can run up Guest session, but once I log into my account, it becomes dark. External HDMI does not run (i never tested before, just tried now and TV says no signal). I know i can run up Terminal via shortcut CTRL+ALT+T, however what next then, step by step pls.? I tried to play with "xbacklight" advise in Guest session and also my account, but i am not sure i am doing the steps in correct synchronizations (blind typing, lack of Guest password knowledge, lack of knowledge if xbacklight is installed or not, etc.). Thx to experts to let me know fast!

Please provide step-by-step method to build 
rock64_20170809_stock_android_7.1.2_sdboot.img
Using source code provided @
https://github.com/rock64-linux
https://github.com/rockchip-linux
https://source.android.com/
https://android.googlesource.com/

Major task is to merge rock64-linux code with full ASOP and build it for Rock64

Regards.

Hello everyone,

Last Monday I received my Rock64 including the ES9023 Audio POT-Board. Till now I don't have any success getting audio out of this board. aplay -l lists 3 cards. Card 1 is i2s device. I tried speaker-test, aplay  and mpd but and don't get any sound or error.

For example: 

When installing LanguageSupport of xenial-mate-rock64-0.4.17-85-arm64.img, fcitx-tool-gtk is missing.
Also, fcitx-mozc does not exist in the package.
fcitx-anthy is working normally.

Hello,

Pretty often at boot time my eth0 does not get an DHCP address assigned.
I have to play with

sudo dhclient
sudo ifconfig eth0 down
sudo ifconfig eth0 up

between 2 and 5 times to finally get network configuration from DHCP server.

Is it a known issue on Linux (happens on most images I have tested) ?
I have seen a similar thread on Android.

Well at least since latest ayufan fixes (0.5.1 images) we always get the same MAC address

Hi everyone, just thought i'd share this article:
http://dt.iki.fi/pinebook/
i have outlined the whole process from getting the pinebook to having it work satisfactorily.
i really recommend the two distros i tried: Q4OS and armbian.
