Sad Android unusable, were my expectations too high?
Posted by: xtcrefugee - 06-13-2016, 10:23 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (13)

My 2GB A64+ arrived today, and after trying and failing to get the Phoenix image to work (it just sat at the "powered by Android" screen) I tried the rooted 32GB Android image and successfully got to the desktop. I'm using a standard 64GB SanDisk Ultra UHS-I card (Win32DiskImager claimed the 64GB image would not fit on it) and am pretty sure it's genuine. I have wireless USB receivers for keyboard and mouse connected and nothing else, and it's powered by a 2 Amp Samsung adapter, so that should all be OK I think.

The system is unbelievably slow. Just navigating the settings screens takes ages as the app freezes or locks up repeatedly. My mouse freezes at times for a few seconds, then comes back. Chrome gave me a black screen with the "this app is not responding" message, but eventually loaded. After some persistence I was able to activate Wi-Fi and add my Google account, but I've tried several times now to start Google Play, each time it causes the device to restart (back to the Pine logo screen) after a long attempt to load.

I'm not sure if I have a faulty unit here, a faulty setup in some way, or if perhaps my expectations were too high? This certainly isn't a usable system, that's for sure, I can barely load an app. I'm downloading Remix instead now to see if that's any better, but really I bought this as Pine claimed to support Android.


  Pine A64+ 1GB 10/100 ethernet?
Posted by: eli - 06-13-2016, 04:09 AM - Forum: Pine A64 Hardware, Accessories and POT - Replies (1)

Hi all, according the shop site the 1 gig model has 10/100 ethernet port, the wiki and the kickstarter show that it should be 10/100/1000 port.

I hope that's mistake because otherwise I'm gonna regret my backing on the kickstarter project


  C#.NET / Mono GPIO library?

  How do you auto-start apps in RemixOS?
Posted by: utdrmac - 06-12-2016, 06:19 PM - Forum: Remix OS - Replies (3)

I've tried several apps from the Google Play Store that, supposedly, will automatically start apps you define on OS boot. But none of these seem to work.

Kodi on RemixOS was able to play a 1080p x265 HEVC without any noticeable stuttering or screen artifacts. So, I'm trying to get Kodi to auto start on OS boot in attempt to start using this as my media center and replace my Pi.


  Faulty lcd screen? Wrong install process? Help!
Posted by: Krinilssen - 06-12-2016, 01:05 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (4)

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.

  Command line only UI
Posted by: NexusDude - 06-12-2016, 05:21 AM - Forum: openHAB - Replies (3)

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.

Quote:Ubuntu 16.04 LTS openhab tty1 

Welcome to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.10.101-0-pine64-longsleep aarch64)

Do some sort of sensors need to be installed? The initial screen seems to suggest that, before it flashes past.

I'm just trying to get a feel for the capabilities of OpenHab, with a Pine A64 on Ethernet.
