I have followed pine team announcements regarding shipping and recommended time for waiting them to come. At the end of april I got my first package (parcel RI894207017CN), containing Pine64+ (serial 410640105913) and WiFi module. As it was said that I should wait couple of weeks if my order had more than one unit, I have waited. But, after a few weeks, this is the only thing I got. I have sent an email to shipping@pine64.com three weeks ago, no answer so far. So, I decided to try here...

The missing items are:

QTY     ITEM         PRICE
1     Abs case legacy square thumb     PINE64 ABS Enclosure     $6.24 (incl. shipping)
1     Pinea64 2gbpn legacy square thumb     PINE A64+ 2GB - PA642GB     $30.00 (incl. shipping)
1     Acryliccase 1 legacy square thumb     PINE64 Acrylic Open Enclosure     $7.49 (incl. shipping)
1     Hdmitovga legacy square thumb     HDMI to VGA Adapter With Audio     $6.24 (incl. shipping)
2     Backupcr legacy square thumb     RTC Backup Battery - CR     $4.24 (incl. shipping)
4     Plug international1 legacy square thumb     PINE64 5V 2A Power Supply - International     $8.24 (incl. shipping)
2     Pinea64p 1 legacy square thumb     PINE A64+ 1GB - PA641GB

Also, the unit I have received came with one tactile switch that was just thrown into the bag (picture in attachment). As I'm not sure this is how it is supposed to be, nor I have found a picture of the final board, I'm also not sure if there is anything more that is missing on it.

I know that pine team has many things to sort out, but I think that I have been more than patient and still got no response...

Do Kickstarter pledgers get a discount at the store? There's a spot to apply one.

Just a quick question, I was looking over the wiki again, but couldn't find the datasheet for the battery from the Pine Shop. It would be really handy to have while looking for something compatible that I dont need to import from China or elsewhere. Thanks :-)

Really?
The Android image downloads at less than 1mb/sec.
Five hours to download. Why?

I have DD-WRT on my router, it shows bandwidth use.

I finally got part of the kickstarter and backerkit items. However it's rather small, since backerkit still says my order is "ready to ship", and I have received only 1 item.

I am running the may 8 xfce build and I can't seem to find a repo that has php7 available.  I'm fairly new to Linux so I may just be looking in the wrong places.  If php5 is all that's available that's fine, I just want to make sure before I install it.

I waited 6 months to get this piece of hardware. Out of the box, I can't find any image working properly (not lagging)

In the demos, Pine has shown android to work smoothly in brilliant 4k when in reality it suffers in processing 1080p. Is there a single Android image which work smoothly ?

   

The Exp header is a true TTL serial console (out of box) for both the lenny.raposo debian image with Longsleep kernel, as well the Ubuntu distro with Longsleep kernel ~very nice !

From boot-up through shutdown this UART port is a true console (including login) which also includes the uboot sequence; very impressive. The Raspberry PI folks are struggling with this at the moment; they are having UART issues in their PI 3B. Its good to see that the serial console on the PineA64 is good-to-go straight-away (nice job folks, really!)

From the pic, you can use either pin(9) or (6) for ground; pin(7) is the Pine Tx line, and pin(8) is the Pine Rx line.  I have my PL2303 usb TTL serial cable plugged in running the console on my gnu+linux HP notebook (debian-Mint) using either minicom, or screen.

Make sure your PL2303 is set for 3v3 operation, or you'll blow the Pine A64.

I'm going to attempt to make an Android Gaming Image. I need a few people to test the image when I get it going. You will need to be familiar with android. 

Basically, I'm going to install RetroArch and have it boot straight into Retroarch. Let me know if you would like to give it a try.

Thanks,

So I'm one of those unfortunate saps who got the bogus shipping notice, only to watch it go from Pending to Expired and back to Pending.

What's happening? It's now 3 weeks, and nothing. There is nothing more frustrating than watching everyone else receive their packages, and I sit here with my useless tracking number, regretting that I wasted $100+ on this.

Backerkit states the product as "shipped", which I have asked them to modify, as it obviously has not.

Would appreciate more than just "our shipper screwed up", because that in turn means you as a company (or developer, or whatever you want to call a Kickstarter) has screwed up.

Help?
