- No Replies
I was thinking about cutting +5V wire on USB cable connecting my self powered USB HUB and Pine64+ board.
Will I still be able to communicate with devices connected to USB hub or no ?
Because hub is self powered and has no back power protection I was thinking this way to make somehow protection from over voltage coming from hub.
Is it OK or just a SF thought ?
Regards,
I disperately need your help in order to complete the first boot.
I receive this message, could it be due to the WIFI keyboard inserted in the USB port?
So, browsing the forums, I read that the only image that currently supports the touchscreen is the Android 5.1. This was a bit of a bummer for me, because I was intending to use the Remix OS on my Pine. So, my question is, are there other OS's or images that have touchscreen support? Or will there be touchscreen support coming to existing OS's sometime soon?
I have been unable to get my Pine to start up because I have been unable to mount the OS to my micro SD card. I have downloaded the file from this location http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/pinea64 multiple times, and whenever I unzip and attempt to use the packaged .img file and mount it I get the "The disc image file is corrupted" message from the computer. I have tried multiple copies of the same and different downloads, as well as changing the location, but nothing works. After that, I tried the PhoenixCard program, but it also gives me errors. The error I receive from PhoenixCard is "Card preprocess failed !1251" I have again tried different copies of the .img, but nothing works. I have formatted the card to EXFAT from my Mac, and repeatedly reformatted, trying to find a solution. MSDOS was no better, but I only tried it a few times. The card is a Samsung 64gb EVO+.
When I plug in the power supply that came with my kickstarter pack, the pine64 will show the red LED for about a second before it fades to nothing. It does the same with other cables.
I just loaded Android 5.1.1 Image Release 20160505 to my PINE64 and the monitor seems to have a greenish tinge to it. Is that normal? Has anyone else experienced this?
Hoping someone can give me an update, or even better, a tracking number. I realize that given my backer number (#38,473), I'm likely low on the totem pole right now, however, given that we are a few days from July, an update would be appreciated. Survey has been replied to, address confirmed, and was charged on Backerkit. Please PM me if more info is needed.
Thank you, I know that you are all swamped.

I should add that I have received the battery, but nothing else yet.
Like I used to do in raspberrypi 3, I can able to select python from the menu and run the program and I can test the program by click on RUn button and it opens up second windows.
Is it possible for me to get python program on menu or same as pi?
I am new to Linux and learning a lot from the forum.
I just got my 2 Pine64+ boards this weekend, and have been playing with them constantly since! I'm working on building some digital signage out of them, to hopefully use at my office's large event at the end of September. I've been using ScreenlyOSE (www.screenlyapp.com/ose/) with a raspberry Pi2 for a while and think the Pine's would be perfect for this job.
I would like to use Ubuntu for this as its what i'm most familiar with, but It looks like i'll be settling for Debian for now, unless they release a major update soon, knowing they just partnered with conical and ubuntu.
I'll use this as my update board, and progress tracker.
