Hi everyone,

I received my Pine A64 2G+ and I was exicted to test it; but I even do not success to flash any OS.

the system:
- microSD, samsung 32Go, class 10, with an adapter (but try several), and set the adapter either on the laptop SD reader or using an external USB SD reader
- I downloaded : remix for 32Go, remix for 16Go, android5.1.1 for 32Go and android 5.1.1 for 16 Go
- zip file were decompress using winrar
-installation via Phoenixcard 3.1  (I tested the lower version)

the problem: after clicking on "Img File" and selecting the image (of course the decompress and not the zip) the soft send me the error dialog box "script not found! please use a new version image".

to check the image I launch Win32 disk manager which return me the error "not enough space: blabla"

I can not beleive the 4 OS images I tested were/are not working;

What do you think I did wrong?

thanks

Ludovic

There has been little discussion on gaining root access on RemixOS on the Pine64. I found a guide on rooting the PC version but that guide is dependent on the OS being ran from a squashfs image. On the Pine64, the files directly accessible when the SD card is mounted on a linux box. If I am root on the linux box I can access and change any file I choose. With that being the case I would assume that gaining root access may be a bit easier. I am just unsure of what needs to be changed, added, or removed. If someone will help me resolve this, or find the appropriate information I'll work on it.

Hi All, Received my Pine64 and enjoying it very much.  One issue is that I can 
not get the chrome browser to put out any sound.  Any suggestions?
Much appreciated

Hi,

I'd like to run Gambas on the Pine. 
It works well on Raspberry but no luck on Pine Deb and Ubuntu.
From the command line and Synaptic it gives me jit not installable.

Gambas running is more important to me than the OS.

Any ideas?

Hello,
I've installed RemixOS and I've tried it on my Pine64+ 2Gb.
I can't hear any audio from my TV and the audio settings are somehow invisible (no slide bars to be moved at all).
I've also checked the other thread about No HDMI Audio but I can't seem to see any viable solution to this problem.
Is this a known bug/problem for RemixOS on the Pine64+/2Gb?
Anyone came up with a solution?
It's not a faulty board nor a problem with the TV since audio on Android works (although kind of unusable, being too slow and keeps rebooting by itself).
Thanks

Hi,

The LCD/Pine64/SD I received do not seem to work.  I do not have an HDMI monitor or TV so I can only use the the LCD screen to set this thing up. I have tried all the different LCD android images and cannot get the screen to turn on.  I am starting to suspect that the LCD is DOA.  

Is there anyway I can verify this?  Should the screen turn on or give any indication of working even without a working SD card?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Is it possible to connect the pine64 with hdmi to a hd tv? I want to use remix os

fixed

Well, I can't figure it out but has anyone got the screen wake up to work? My power button won't wake it up once the screen sleeps and i have no idea how to get the damned thing to wake up other than pull the power and restart it.

Edit: Power button turns the screen off, but not back on

I have the Pine64 with the touchscreen and I am using the LCD image. However, when I touch in a text entry field the keyboard doesn't come up. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a fix?
