I am trying to create an Ubuntu  Linux Image SD using the instructions below.

It works fine (Ubuntu boots using the new SD card and I can log in) except for when I open the terminal and try to resize the SD card using:

"Execute resize_rootfs.sh script to resize the root partition in order to fully utilize the SD Card"

I  get the error:

"This scrip requires root"

How do I solve this?

Hello!

I finally received both of my Pine A64+ 2gb boards. I have tried both boards with the following setup:

-Power supply from pine 64
-LCD screen and Hdmi connection (tried separately obviously)
-64gb android micro SD (shipped with pine64)
-32gb android micro SD (shipped with pine64)
-32gb RemixOS micro SD (shipped with pine64)
-No other peripherals plugged in 

Every time I plug in the power The red led comes on, and stays on. There is no signal given to either the LCD or the hdmi (again, they are never plugged in together, one at a time for testing purposes). 

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Or should I throw my hands up and give up on this $200 investment that I waited 6 months for?

I've got the stock 5.1.1 which came with my pine. I cannot get google play music to play anything I have to use the browser instead. Has anyone else run into this? Solutions? I will try to debug it with a wifi adblog app tonight or tomorrow.

everything else seems to work. Odd bugs I've found:
over time the headphone jack unregisters as not being plugged in.
Wifi drops eventually and have to manually reconnect.

cheers

backer 36781, lots of stuff missing from the delivery I received today. 
2 x 2gb boards
2 x cases
1 airmouse

Yes, I'm sure this has been covered, though I can't seem to find relevant info based on what I'm experiencing. I am trying to get my pine to start up, using only those components that shipped with it (1gb unit, lcd screen, 64 gb micro sd with android). I cabled lcd screen based on a guess, plugged in the pine (using the supplied power supply) and get.....nothing. The red led lights up, but no display.

Here's a pic of how I have it set up.

What have i done wrong?

I understand that the Z-Wave modules were having issues and that they would ship separately, but I received my boards about 2 months ago now and I still haven't heard anything about the modules.

Any updates? 

Hi there.

My Pine just arrived.  When I fired it up on Remix everything seems to work but I am not getting any sound from a TV connected using HDMI.

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks.

Issues solved

if you encounter issues do let me know on here.  If no one reports problems then I will take this post down in a weeks time   

We know that many are trying to connect to IRC and experiencing issues and/or ping timeouts.
We are working on solving the problems but it may take a bit of time. 

Our apologies

[edit] for now you can use chat over at pine64.pro -- be patient, its running slow (also related to the problem we are experiencing)

Hi guys, If there's already a thread on this specific issue, my apologies, couldn't find it.

I installed Android on my pine64 and downloaded Kodi, bought a pine64 remote, everything works fine inside Kodi, I can shut it down as well, however I can't seem to power it on with the remote controller. Powering it off works all the time so it's definitely not a remote issue. Do I need to make any configs? Does anybody else has this problem? It's kind of annoying powering it on manually all the time. Thanks.

Hello,

When will you add support for audio pass-through when using the Pine64 with AVR?

Please update! 

thanks,
Moshe
