Question Rooted Android 5.1.1 - Phone, Dialler & SMS
Posted by: Green Cherry - 09-06-2016, 03:50 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hi

I've installed the rooted version of Lollipop and it's very impressive!

Having plugged a 3G USB dongle for phone / text capability, I've noticed that there are no stock apps related to eitrher the phone or SMS. I installed an SMS app (ZERO SMS), and can successfully send a text, but cannot receive one.

With regards to the phone capability, as there doesn't appear to be a dialler, I obviously can't make calls. When I call the number on the SIM within the dongle, it rings, so it is definitely online (also demonstrated by the signal status), but there is no further screen interaction.

I've found a link to the Google Dialler (https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...aler&hl=en), but opening it up within the Play Store informs me that my device is incompatible, therefore I cannot download it. At a push, I could probably spoof the model to enable the download & installation, but there is no guarantee it would work.

The /System/App/ folder doesn't appear to have anything relevant. I've found many APKs which purport to be from stock ROMs, but I'm dubious about compatability & source.

Has anyone managed to successfully enable their Pine Android to both make & receive calls & texts?


  Packet loss on lan port
Posted by: Hiren - 09-06-2016, 03:50 AM - Forum: Pine A64 Hardware, Accessories and POT - Replies (4)

I have a pine64 + 2G that pulls ~20% packet loss regardless of the OS.  This makes it impossible to run updates or even browse the web. Its sister board that I revived at the same time works perfectly with the same SD cards inserted.  Is there something I can do to fix this?

The board is for a Pi2 GPIO but I wan"t to plug it on a Pi b+ GPIO.

My question is: What GPIO pinout the Z-Wave module is expecting?!

If you have a little schmatic with connection to GPIO, I can use some wires to plug it in.

Thanks


  Resolution help
Posted by: johnp28 - 09-05-2016, 12:55 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (1)

I recently booted up my Pine A64+ 2gb running debian.  I have a 1680x1050 monitor.  The Pine does not match the resolution of the screen, so a bunch of stuff is but off on the top and bottom.  When i went into settings there was no other options for resolution other than 1280x720.  How can i fix this so that my resolutions match.   Currently this is unusable.  Soon as i booted up i opened terminal and did the update and upgrade commands.   Please HELP!

No official pics here, just what I was able to work out for myself. I hope some of you find this helpful (or offer improved ways of doing it).


  Firefox on Pine64
Posted by: S265 - 09-04-2016, 08:34 PM - Forum: Ubuntu - Replies (2)

3.10.101-4-pine64-longsleep and Ubuntu Mate 16.04
2GB Ram, Firefox 48

What is your experience with Firefox on Pine64? Using the "top" utility I find that it can quickly absorb a ton of cpu. If I limit myself to 2 or 3 tabs it works ok without using most of the cpu resources. The chrome browser failed to install on this system so stuck with Firefox atm.


  Build 20160718, can't boot from PhoenixCard image
Posted by: EricL - 09-04-2016, 08:34 PM - Forum: Remix OS - No Replies

Hey all.

I did a little searching, and don't immediately see anyone else who's run into this problem, but I need a little advice.  I can't really use the DD images due to a capacity mismatch with the SD cards I have, so I burned the cards with PhoenixCard.  Had no issues burning, everything checked out, however I just get a black screen when trying to boot.  My old card from the April-whatever build boots fine.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.


I... am... an... idiot.

Okay, it's been a while since I dusted off my Pine64 and flashed it. Apparently, I forgot the part about ticking the box marked "Startup Mode". :facepalm:

Please ignore me.

Eric


  Can I rotate Screen Android 5.1.1 for LCD (not rooted)
Posted by: steveslim - 09-04-2016, 03:03 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (4)

Hello, I've installed my Pine64+ 2 GB model with Android 5.1.1 for LCD into my just arrived playbox enclosure along with the LCD screen.  Everything is working well including the touchscreen in the LCD.

There is a setting within Android (Settings/Display/when Device is Rotated, rotate the Contents of Screen).  This doesn't work for me.

This is slightly problematic for me as the power USB connection is on the bottom of the enclosure when the default screen orientation is active.  If I could rotate the screen 180 degrees, then that plug would be on the top of the enclosure and out of the way while the enclosure is in my lap.  I'm not using any USB devices, so, for me, having the USB ports on the bottom of the enclosure when the screen is rotated 180 degrees works better for me.

I know this is very minor, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has successfully rotated the screen in Android 5.1.1 for LCD.  I'm using the latest build (20160603 LCD Panel Output).  Or maybe I just need to wait for the next Android LCD build?  Thanks.


  Can't read SD card on Mac/Win after mounting DD Android image
Posted by: Voyager - 09-04-2016, 07:41 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (3)

Last night I wrote the Android 5.1 DD image from the Pine 64 site to an 8GB PNY SD card using Win32 Disk Imager. I was then able to boot up Android on my Pine64 board without any issues. However, when I put the card back into my computer, I can no longer read anything on it. I get an error saying the inserted disk is not readable, both on my Windows and Mac machines. 

How am I supposed to troubleshoot or make changes if I can't access the files on the disk? What should I do here?
