i have been trying in vain to get a bootable 16G micro SD card with SentOS and Android for a while now. no luck.
i have tried numerous programs like etcher and it always fails in validation.
not sure what i am doing wrong. 
tried 2 diff computers with W10.

Dear All,

In my project I need 8 inch display, I found goodix 911gt 8 inch cpt but I need 8 inch mipi panel too. Can anybody suggest me a screen that I can configure for pine64 without so much effort?

Edit: I try to find manufacturer website but I couldnt find anything. Maybe same manufacturer has 8 inch version too.

Thanks

So, first off if this has been asked before, apologies for repeating. 

My pine has collected dust for the past few months, since I ran into some issues with ubuntu and getting the pine to install and run some of the apps I needed (big data / hadoop etc.). That and wifi never running even though it does with android.

What I'd like to use my pine for is the following; 1) file server (2 1tb usb drives) 2) printer server and potentially media center 3) and pie in the sky a render server (would need a lot of work in win IoT for that).

I've tried to get the two latest android releases running (6.x and 7.x) but for some reason my touchscreen wouldn't work. On 5.1.1 it did work, but the touch part would not (on the 5.1.1 tv). On the android version that shipped with the pine i am able to access my usb drives, though no touch screen, and apparently no usb printer support in android what so ever.

So my question is, how would you all go about this? What os would you use, what configs, etc?

My idea would be to connect Pine to a hifi and than to be able to stream music from pc/smartphone to it wirelessly. Best if it wouldnt need a lot of setting on sender side so if friends come they could just connect and stream.
What would be the best way to set this thing up if it is possible?

Hi,

  I just received my Pin64+ (2GB) board and touchscreen and after mounting in the C4 labs case am very pleased.

Also happy to see that I'm not running into the Gb ethernet issue:

Hello all,

I tried installing Plex Media Server for Android on Remix OS from an apk but I just got a "There is a problem parsing the package" error. Running latest Remix OS.

Is there a way to debug this? Has anyone managed to install it?

PMS installed marvelously on my Android Phone.

Thanks

I am using syncthing on many different devices without any problems. On PINE64 with Ubuntu Xenial and longsleep's kernel I installed syncthing from https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/r....21.tar.gz It start and I can connect to other devices but the actual syncing is not starting. Is this an ethernet problem or could it be something else? How do I go about finding the cause and fixing it? Are there people here that got it working and if so, how? Thanks

Hello
I am trying to get the handshake right for serial debug.
Does anyone have advice?

Hello, I'm new to the Pine64.  I just recently received my first board and set it up a few days ago.

When I first tried Android Lollipop (5.1.1) it started up fine, but then refused to ever wake up when I put the screen to sleep.  So I tried Android 6.0.  It seems to run just fine and wakes up the screen from sleep correctly, but I'm baffled by another odd behavior: Every time I boot, it tells me the SD Card is corrupt as a notification.  I am using brand-new Sandisk 32 GB cards.  It did it with the 32 GB image, and even with the 8 GB image.

This is what it shows as a notification:
   

This is on the Storage & USB screen under Settings:
   

I have no idea what "volumn" is either.  No other USB storage device is connected.

As a test I tried to have it "fix" my card.  It suggested a format, which I let it try.  It failed with a truly bizarre error message (I could not capture), and then as I expected, the card refused to boot afterward.  I had to go and re-image it.

Any ideas as to why it thinks my card is always corrupt?  Any suggested way I can fix it?  Should that "volumn" be concerning?  (Please note I am very new to UNIX / Linux, so please explain any steps you suggest I do.)

Thanks.

Hi all


I am having problems with my Pine64. I have followed all the steps, but once I connect the board to the internet, via the WiFI module or the ethernet cable, it stops working.
There is absolutely nothing I can do, the screen goes grey or black and that is all.

I can disconnect the cable and then try again and it will work, but as soon as I reconnect... gone.

Is there anything I can do?

I will appreciate any information you can give me

(I'm trying the Android 6.0 IMG - I have a Pine 2GB board and I have tried other OS and the same happens)

Many thanks,
