I have a 2gb pine64 and have http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pine_A6...e_20160711 loaded on it. I had a spare touch screen lying around (http://www.waveshare.com/10.1inch-hdmi-l...h-case.htm) so I was trying to get it the pine to work with it. The pine with android boots up no problem but the touch screen is not responsive. I know on the site it calls out very specific OS for the touch screen but I'm not sure if those are just recommendations based on what they have had exposure to or not.

For the project I am working on, we are in need of using a larger touch screen than the one that is sold in the online store. Has anyone had any luck connecting the pine to a larger touch screen? If so, is it just this particular screen not being compatible or might I be doing something wrong?

Hi,

according to the status of my order #102239106 the device was shipped on 2016-06-04  15:02:00

I got the tracking number: LM026086600CN and on the EMS-china tracking site I can see:

So apparently It was  delivered in GERMANY . but I wonder WHERE ? I did not receive anything till now.

How can I get any more detailed information ? I live in the capital city - Berlin, Germany has some 80Mio citizens, Berlin about 3,5 ... I am also not sure if EMS is working in Germany, so DELIVERED can mean they proceeded the shipment to 3rd party service like UPS, DHL, Geran Post ...

I got no reply from the support. I do not know where to start the search.

Received my 2 gig board, touchpanel, power supply, ubunto SD card and android card.
plugged in touchpanel. Red led is on, but nothing on panel with any is card.
powered off and plugged into my PC monitor, a64 screen comes up but then keeps rebooting with both cards.

So after waiting something like 6 months for the playbox enclosure to arrive, I am extremely disappointed.  Has anyone found a good solution to using this while plugged into power, ethernet, and hdmi? As it is now, this thing has to lay flat on its back to be used, thanks to power, etc, coming from the bottom of the enclosure. Who wants to hover overtop of the device to use it?! Not to mention no Linux support for the 7" touchscreen (NEVER MENTIONED WHEN BACKING THIS), which is the reason why I backed the Pine in the first place... I would have just bought an Android tablet if thats what I really wanted. I guess I could build a ghetto stand for it... it just seems not very well thought out that I need to now make some sort of stand just to use it while plugged in.  Thoughts?

To whom it concerns,


I received a shipping status update on Aug 25th, saying "order #8164910 have now been shipped", but according to the tracking info, USPS is still awaiting the item.

Any information regarding this delay would be appreciated. 

Thanks,

Adam

How SD Cards Work;  SPI and the SD Card

The above link explains how SPI and the SD card work.  This is not only a good read for understanding in SD cards, but is also a great primer for understanding SPI as well.

The schematic for the Rev C 2G Pine64+ board has now been published.

Greetings everyone!

I've purchased Pine 64 specifically for a car media server is going to be built into glove compartment.
In order for my project comes to fruition the pine 64 needs a battery backup that via a script in once the car is turned off to gracefully shut down.


The battery needs to charge through micro USB. I'm looking for a product that is the quickest/simple plug-and-play setup that is safe to use. I've read quite a few threads but there's a lot of different opinions and setups. Thoughts and links to products?

So after my Package arrives, not everything was there.

I raised the issue in the forums, I asked for my money back in a private message, but then they send another shipment which 2 months later, still has not arrived!

I have also since raised my concern how bad the pine64 is and there is no support and just empty promises. But guess what, that Post gets magically deleted!

So now the Staff are deleting post if they don't like them, I still have not gotten everything I have paid for, and more to the point, what I got is not usable! Guess if anyone complains, then you get censored so the rest don't know about it...

I'm taking this to kickstarter to recover my money, and yeah, as far and wide as I can (YouTube, Facebook, etc, everyone will know the bad truth about the Pine64)

To the PINE64 peoples.....

I am still missing items from my KS order.

Backer number is 15251.

Last week I have received the Playbox kit.

I am certifying that I have not received the rest of my order which is the following....

[*]1 - Pine A64+ 2GB
[*]4 - 5 Way 12C Cable
[*]4 - 4 Way 12C Cable
[*]1 - 802.11BGN Wifi/ BT4.0 Module
[*]3 - PINE A64+ 2GB - PA642GBWIFI 
[*]2 - PINE64 12C Multiport POT
[*]2 - USB Serial Programmer for PINE64
[*]2 - PINE64 Ambient Light Sensor 
[*]2 - PINE64 Humidity Temperature Sensor


I do not know why you are delaying in sending me the rest of my order for which I have charged on 5/9/2016 for $386.48 for the entire order. As far as I know, all of the pre-orders should have already shipped and I have not received all of the order.


What do we have to do to resolve this?
