Hello. I'm not terribly familiar with the Android OS, so please forgive my ignorance...

That said, I'm attempting to play a game I downloaded from the Google Play store, or whatever (Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius). It seems to work fine, but it seems it can only be played vertically. And since I have my Pine A64 plugged into a TV, this is a problem. Is there a relatively simple option to change the orientation on games, or am I stuck having to play this game with my head sideways?

Thanks,

Hello Forum,

i want to set up a stratum 1 server on the pine, with the Adafruit GPS-Board. On the Pi it's no problem, because i don't need to make big changes.

What I have done so far on pine:

Hi guys 

I've been waiting patiently hoping to get some kind of news, however, haven't heard anything. I've also been checking kistarters comments daily reading "literally" every comment from about 353 or something like that, seen the good and the bad there, lately though so many people have been getting theirs, kind of making my burn even more for this thing.

Could you please let me know what the status of my order is? I'm backer number 15,785. I've also checked backerkit daily, or multiple times a day for the last couple of months, and nothing has updated there. I was part of the March tier.

Really dying to get this now.

Please let me know whats happening

Regards
Micah

Hello...

I would like to automate some things in my house.. 

I got the I2C POT Board with light and humidity sensor. so beginning with Humidity Reading to determine to open Windows or close them and with Light sensor Open or Close the Window Shadow.
Since Here where I live summer is dark upon 10 PM but in winter is Dark since 4 PM I want to be controlled by Light Sensor.

I have the Phillip Hue at Home and I can control it via SSH. I could control also the Light in the house. 

I got Ubuntu Mate to start and verify everything is working, and also Android works fine 

is there someone trying something like it?! i would like to share experience and not trying and re-invent the wheel.

There does not seem to be anywhere to check for updates on progress being made to bug fixes or future releases for the Android OS. It just feels like the Pine was released and that was it, no further progress needed. Could we perhaps get some form of newsletter or post for possible future updates and releases for all OS's not just Android? I enjoy my Pine a lot but with no update in over 3 months it looks like there is not much going for it.

I would like to make a very small app or script to Android / Remix.

It shall set a GPIO pin high for 0.5 to 1 second and the low again.

Why? I would like to reset the HP_Jack connector status and thereby be able to use the audio output without doing the unplug-plug manual sequence after power up. (with a relay or analog sw. will I shortly connect pin 3 and 4 at the jack connector.)

A manual short circuit of pin 3 and 4 (and release again) activates the audio output af the HP_JACK connector.

So:

• How do I get started making a simple app or script to android?
  
• How do I get control of the GPIO pins from android?
  

I can see a commit to enable XFS as a module but I cannot find the module.

I just got my "PINE A64+ Board 2GB" & the "Himax 5 Megapixel Camera Module".
Does anyone have instructions on how to open the CSI connector and inserting the flat cable?
or just a pic of installed camera.

Thanks

Hello,

Just wanted to start a thread about my experience with the PINE64. So far the only thing that is stable for me is RemixOS. When using Android and Linux my unit likes to crash. Specificially when messing with wireless and BT. On Linux I could only get the BT Manager to load once but then it crashed and wouldn't load anymore. With android once I connect to wifi it crashes and then boots to the same crash until I reload the OS on the micro SD. Using android I was able to get the touch screen and LCD that I got with the kickstarter package to work but being that Android is the only thing that you can load where the LCD works, makes it pretty much useless as when I use wifi it crashes. Running remix I connect a BT mouse and keyboard and connect a touchscreen via USB using the HDMI out. I was also able to use the power button that came with the kit. I installed it in the power slot, however it seemed like I only got it work once but it's not soldered so it may not properly be making the connection for it to work. I did have to hold the power button for a few seconds before it came on. Anywho, that's what's up.

Thanks

Hello. I'm looking to buy a touchscreen monitor/module for a project. However, the official 7in one in the store is too small.
My question basically is, would any type of touch screen monitor work or are there restrictions? 
Essentially I want to create a project similar to this but that monitor is quite outdated/hard to find.
