  Yet another shipping query
Posted by: ghughes1138 - 07-18-2016, 03:31 PM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (5)

Backer number 19,488.

I received the A64+ in May, along with the WiFi/BT module that I added when I confirmed the Kickstarter
details.

I also ordered other accessories via Kickstarter at the same time which have not shown up. There was no
paperwork in the shipment to indicate that this was a partial shipment. The status on Kickstarter is that it
was completed, which from my perspective it is not.

The tracking number is  RI894212516CN.

Any way to get an update?

thanks


  No Longer can login

I was able to setup and configure MATE to run on the device.   I did a sudo apt-get update,  then I launched MATE, did an update, and then it prompted me to restart.

Now the MATE login is default (doesn't go straight to command line), and it prompts at the GUI for the ubuntu password.   I enter the password and it appears to login, but then kicks itself back out to login.   

I do not get "Incorrect Password"

Any ideas?

I can login as a guest.

  output on LCD screen
Posted by: Rigor_M - 07-18-2016, 11:27 AM - Forum: POT modules - Replies (1)

Hi,

Just got my goods and trying to use the 7in LCD screen on the IOT kit but I cant see anything.

Does the LCD screen only work when using a Android image or should it work no matter what is booting ( like the HDMI port)

Thank for any info on this Smile

  Missing Pine A64 boards
Posted by: Mikedr44628 - 07-18-2016, 09:00 AM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi, I received a package from Pine about 10 days ago.  The package contained the lid panels, the power supply, the wifi modules and the switches.  There were no motherboards.  I should have received the 2 GB version as the reward plus the extra one I ordered after the campaign ended.  At first I thought that they were coming in a second package, but after reading through the messages here I have come to realize that they should have been included in the same package.  I have images of the labels and the tracking number that I can provide.  Can someone please help me?

thanks....backer 34,939


  It's the sd card!
Posted by: hogey74 - 07-18-2016, 02:44 AM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (3)

Hi there,

After some trouble and after buying hipo USB chargers etc, it turns out that it was the sd card!  A Kingston 32gb card wouldn't boot past the first screen.  A Sandisk 16gb runs like a boss!  I tried various burns, power supplies etc and none of them mattered.  It was the sd card.  I've got two pines so now I'll try a sandisk 32gb for the second one.

My pine is running fine via a ue boom usb charger and the flat yellow cable that came with it.  I burned remix using phoenix and my laptop.

Good luck!  I figured I should let people know what worked for me.  Someone needs to work up a list of sd cards that work.  Add the cheapest (in australia) Sandisk 16gb.  It's at least a 10x one, but seriously the cheapest.

cheers john


Oh and the wifi module just plugs in and works. So did my logitech usb thing - plugged it in when I got to the first option screen on first boot and it instantly worked. Good stuff!


  W32DI won't let me burn a 16G img to a 16G card
Posted by: grizzogor - 07-18-2016, 01:12 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (2)

So, yeah. Win32DiskImager won't let me burn the 16GB version of the newest (rooted) Android image (07-11-2016) onto my Monster Digital 16GB card (and YES, I have verified the card and it is 16GB). I formatted in exFAT, NTFS, and FAT32, still no luck.  This is the error I get when I try to burn it.

  Reducing Android Image download size.
Posted by: KPhillisJr - 07-17-2016, 10:04 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (4)

I was wondering if it would be possible to change the compression used for the android images away from zip files. This is to greatly reduce the overall file size on download. For example the
16GB image for Android version 5.1.1 released on July 11, 2016 is about 641 Megabytes in it's current zip format. If one changes the file type to 7-zip ( http://7-zip.org/ ) it's possible to further reduce the image to about 487 Megabytes. This is file that is about 30% smaller and should help with lowering bandwidth usage to acquire the image.


Just as a quick note I was using 7zip version 15.14 and I had the following Compression settings...

   

NOTE 1: The compression settings I used means that any system capable of running Microsoft Windows 7 should be able to use 7-zip to decompress the file. The main requirement is to have at least 256MB of ram.

NOTE 2: I used a 8-core system for the compression, however any desktop computer can decompress the file as long as they meet the minimum software requirements.
