I am not 100% sure if question was already raised.  What video player do you use with Android?  Kodi is working well and the video player from 5.1.1 releases is also okay. Any other player?

With MX player I do not have sound...

Based on my work for Android 7.0 (http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=2136) I did downgrade to 6.0.

Download: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/android-6.0/releases

It takes about 10 minutes for first boot to finish.

Report all issues here: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/android-6.0/issues

What does work?

It seems to work nicely and be more responsive then 7.0 build.

Widevine DRM L3 does work, so you should be able to use Netflix.

It also allows you to update SuperSU binary, so rooting is OK too.

What does not?

- So far it seems to be OK.

This is alpha build, so do not complain

If something doesn't work:
- try to see logs (adb logcat, adb shell dmesg),
- try to compile and fix it by yourself,
- when you find solution create a Pull Request for one of this repositories: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/

How to compile?

You can also see my Jenkins compilation script:

Download:

Install:

The builds are designed to be used with Pine A64 1GB or 2GB on at least 4GB sdcard.

Use Etcher to write images: https://www.etcher.io/

The build automatically resize data partition on first boot to use sdcard space.

LCD:

To enable LCD, edit uEnv.txt from BOOT partition and uncomment:

Just noticed that there are two new products stated in the Pine64 website, the SoPine A64 and the Pinebook.

Is there any information on when will these products be available for purchase?

For anyone fiddling with the LCD display, this is where the technical documentation will be sticked / bookmarked as it collected for reference. Please feel free to point out any good sources of information and I'll add them to this main post when I get time.

I designed a very simple system of mounting a Pine64 to the back of my monitor with four little arms.  You attach one arm to each corner of the Pine64, then each arm goes to a VESA 100 hole.  It takes less than 10 minutes to print, and less that 5 minutes or so to mount.

Based on my work for Android 7.0 (http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=2136) I did bump the version to 7.1.

Here's the video: https://goo.gl/photos/1XKM9eGS3vDPFef17

Download: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/android-7.1/releases

Report all issues here: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/android-7.1/issues

N.B. Do not update SudoSu - it breaks the installation

What does work?

I see that some things do work, but I didn't really test that.
I did only apply changes of 7.1, compile and do two test runs.

I believe that this build is very similar to 7.0 and has the same limitations.

What does not?

- Definitely not Widevine DRM. So no Netflix.

This is alpha build, so do not complain

If something doesn't work:
- try to see logs (adb logcat, adb shell dmesg),

- when you find solution create a Pull Request for one of this repositories: https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/

Hi All,

Does anyone try Vysor(Chrome's extension) on Pine64? Vysor can operate Android UI functions on the laptop remotely, but it requests adb connection via USB port. If you don't have LCD or TV on hand, this utility should be grate for developing.

I ordered two Pine64s and am connecting them via Ethernet to the same router. Using the Ubuntu Xenial base image. I worked through an issue where both cards had the exact same MAC address by doing the following:
