4 months ago I did an unboxing of the pine 64. As promised, I have tested it out and made my personal opinion after 1000h of load, and non stop use (24/7). Its ON since the day arrived home.


You have find the complete review here.

Just to put something here:

Conclusion

For being the first model of the company, I would say from my personal experience that, the Pine 64 is solid. Great price, for great performance. It has given me all I asked and never failed to do a task. It’s community is still growing and expanding, so don’t expect to find information as easy as you would do for a raspberry pi.

Is more than I expected, I totally recommend it, if you are looking for a small computer with great performance.

i put an android 5.1 dd image,
dd bs=4M if=/home/dkryder/Downloads/pine64/pine64-lollipop-beta-2-lcd-dd-8.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
it boots and runs fine. i would like to recover the unused space and add to the image. using gparted i get an error message about overlapping partitions. fdisk gives me this,
 sudo fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0

http://gparted.org/h2-fix-msdos-pt.php#o...partitions

Hello, 
The last time I was trying to install Kodi on linux I had trubble with it and I understood that the Mali-Driver is the issue. 
My question is if the Mali-Driver is up and running? and I can install Kodi.


Thx and sorry for my bad English.

Hi There,

I've looked for an answer to this and didn't see one.  Sorry if I missed it.  I would like to install rooted android on my pine 64, but the only info I've seen about doing this shows how to do it from a windows machine.  I'm currently using ubuntu 16.04.  Is there a way to install rooted android onto the pine64 without using windows?

thanks,
Ed

Are there any options for integrating Mosquitto support on the Pine ?
Which Linux distributions will work with it ?

I'm a newbie at Linux, so have a little patience with me please

I have tried asking these questions direct to Pine with no reply. Come on guys you have a good product but a product is only as good as the support.
 
Anyway whinge over and now the questions...
 
1. I am going to buy a LCD screen in the next few weeks, but want to know is there is any operating system which would allow me to run dual screen one HDMI connected to the port and also the lcd?

2. Is there any list of PI hats that will work o the pine if not any tutorials and what would be needed?

3. When will the be (as promised) European distributer(must say the shipping is improving things are taking a little over a week)?
