I have tried many times to instal different android builds to work with my pine and the pine touch screen I have, and none have worked or even booted up. I installed linux to make sure it wasn't the pine it self, but I was able to boot into and have full functionality. Am I going around the android process wrong? Or is my lcd touch screen faulty? I am using a mac and have downloaded the DD root image for a 64 gb card, and DD to the card, then plug the card into my pine with the lcd touchscreen attached.

Hello,

I would like to cancel my order 102321772.

Thank you and have a nice day

From the OpenHab website, it appears that OH is supposed to boot into a GUI, but all I'm getting is a command prompt. White on black.

I want to install minidlna, but some dependencies can not be resolved. Please, how can I fix it? Thank you.

Hi guys, i've installed longsleep ubuntu image bspkernel and i'm able to use 3,5 mm jack for audio but i can't use microphone. If i type arecord -l i get this:

Thanks!

I have 5 Pine64+ 2G models I just received today.  I am planning to build a Wimpy Cluster and starting with 5 to prototype the idea.

The inspiration came from this paper:

http://coen.boisestate.edu/ece/files/201...ter_v2.pdf

In his paper, he created a custom PCB to both power the board from the 5V input and twidle with an LED.

In my setup, I am planning to use the battery input from a standard PC Power supply instead to simplify cabling (and I see the jumper on the board to switch to battery).

The main question I have is do I need to add a ploy (or other) fuse (as he describes) to protect from short circuits?

Also, I cannot think of any reason, but I would not expect a performance decrease just because I am on battery power?

And no, I am not an EE.

Thanks,

I connected the camera to my Pine64, but the Android build that came in the box does not seem to recognize the camera.
Every time I start the camera app it says "Camera has stopped working" and exits.

Should I be able to see somewhere if the camera is successfully connected? I tried installing the ribbon cable both ways (lins up as well as down), in case I got it wrong the first time.

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot?

I am an $89 pledge backer, that ordered a bunch more stuff as well (Touchscreen/gamebox/etc.) I understand delays, stuff happens. I'm not angry or upset, just would like to get my kit and join the party. If I did not do something correctly, or need to do anything else, please let me know. Any info you could provide on my order would be greatly appreciated. I am backer #36,668. Thank you for your time.

I got my Pine A64 last week, and today I finally unpacked it.
I connected the BT/WiFi module, plugged in a monitor and a keyboard and booted up the Android build supplied in the box.
Everything booted nice and fast. I went into the settings, enabled WiFi and selected my home network. I was able to see all surrounding networks  (not our high speed 5GHz access point but the older 2.4GHz showed up fine), so I entered the password and hit connect.
I very briefly saw first "Connecting...", followed by "Authenticating" and then "Saved". It never said connected.
I double and triple checked the password (I know it very well), I turned wifi off and on again, tried to reconnect... Nothing.
I tried entering a static IP address instead of using DHCP. Still nothing.

Anyone have an idea what to do? The BT part seems to be working, at least it can see different devices. I haven't tried to actually connect to any.
I have tried with both BT on and off.

Update: Eventually I got a status message saying "WiFi Connectivity Failed" or something similar.

Update 2: I enabled wifi hotspot on my mobile phone, and then it connected fine, bot when I set it up as Open and using WEP2 PSK. So it seems to be a problem with my router (from Time-Warner). I guess that is a project for tomorrow...
