| How to write image to emmc module on the pinebook |
|

Hello,
I've just received my pinebook today and am curious as to how one would write the OS image directly to the emmc module? I've seen where the pine64-installer has an option to write to an emmc but it seems like this tool is for a x86/x86_64 system which the pine isn't. Is there some emmc to usb adapter one would need to do this or is there some magic I'm missing?

Pinebook's battery flat on arrival |

It appears that many peoples' Pinebooks arrived with completely drained batteries. This has likely been caused by the units not being shut down poperly at the factory:
Quote:13:35:07 <tllim> @ayufan, we suspect production people not totally shut down during production time
For those unfortunate of you who received their Pinebooks with flat batteries please let the units charge for a long time - 2hrs at the very least.
If you still get a flashing red battery symbol on the screen after 2+hrs or charing, remove and reinsert the power cable a few times (10+) and let it charge for another few hours.
This issue with be addressed for future shipments.
If you have any further questions or experience problems make sure to post below or join in the IRC. You can also file a support ticket if need be here.

I would appreciate if others could try this out and see if it fixes wifi applet dying on occasion after resuming from suspend in Mate.
Code: sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/wifi-resume.service
Paste the follwoing and save:
Code: #/etc/systemd/system/wifi-resume.service
#sudo systemctl enable wifi-resume.service
[Unit]
Description=Restart networkmanager at resume
After=suspend.target
After=hibernate.target

| A64-DB-2G-Rev B not booting with LCD |

Hi,
I have the above mentioned board with only the LCD (pine kit LCD) connected.
android ver 6.0.1 20170209 - 8GB image on uSD with Etcher.
With the SD in, the power light is on briefly (<2 secs) then off, drawing approx 300mA during this time.
With SD out, the board just sits at approx 100mA current draw and does nothing as expected.
With SD in and LCD disconnected, the board seems to boot with varying current draw up to 650mA across 2 minutes.
Does this indicate a bad LCD or do you have any suggestions what to try to fault find?
Thanks

Hi, just want to share a little idea (already tested) that I am using to 'assist' my Pine64+ board to boot...
My Pine64 has some kind of boot problem, it only run normally somewhere around 30% of the time (out of 10 times, only 3 boot is successful), perhaps a little more or little less...
Unable to understand the problem to try a correction, I had the idea of putting a microcontroller to issue a hardware-reset to the Pine64, every time that the Pine does not boot normally...
Well, the first prototype is working, need some fine tunning and improvements but the overall idea works...

![[Image: co-pine-on-photo-zoom-small.jpg]](http://www13.plala.or.jp/pskitty/img/copineon/co-pine-on-photo-zoom-small.jpg)
For the moment, this is the only "stable" way I found to solve the boot issue I am having with my Pine64, and since I want to test/use/learn more this 64bit hardware with 64bit OS, it will be the *solution* for while...
The whole thing is documented and all the files are available:
HOWTO:
http://www13.plala.or.jp/pskitty/copineon.html
GitHub files:
https://github.com/valterfukuoka/copineon
Not a really good solution for people who have the same problem but can help depending on the reasons and goals in mind...
Regards all,
Valter
