I installed to Ubuntu image provided here on the forum.
Works out of the box.
Default:
User ubuntu
Password ubuntu


I leave this for the moment to make life easy.

Installed lxde.
The login screen refuses my password for user ubuntu (there is only one user)
When going back to command line, I can login with ubuntu.

How do I solve this ?

I do not know why but I have tried every version of Android listed in the wiki, and none of them will work on my Pine.  I have the 64+ 1GB board.  I can get Android to boot.  I can connect the wifi and get to the internet.  And that is it. 

The Play Store crashes every time I attempt to use it.  Normally I can click 3 to 5 times and as soon as I attempt to download an app, it stops responding then just closes.  If I try it after the first crash, it will just shut down immediately with the first thing I click. 

So I have downloaded the APK file for a couple different apps.  I can attach a USB stick, ES File opens it up.  But when I attempt to install any of the APK files, the installation fails.

Does anyone know where I can find an Android image that actually allows me to install apps?

March backer here.

I filled out the survey when they were first sent out and was told my card wouldn't be charged until the lockout date. The backerkit website finally charged my card two weeks ago which I assumed meant my shipment would be coming, but I haven't heard anything since. For people who have received their shipments, how long did it take after you were charged? Should I be expecting tracking info or something?

Thanks

Hi, I got a used Dell 2014tt touchscreen.  What do I need to do to enable it to be used with Android/Pine64?  I've got the HDMI and USB connected but no luck.

hey

so a reminder:
I successfully managed to boot and start up my 512MB DDR pine64 with Debian, the internet connection via wifi works fine.
obviously as a pilot test I wanted to watch a youtube video, but it takes forever even start playing it - iceweasel soon gets stucked, pops out a script error and I must close the browser.

I know that the 512MB is the most basic model, but come on - it can't even run a youtube video?

is there something i can actually do? higher voltage on the power supply (now it's a 2.1A 5V)? using another app or browser (though even Kodi runs slowly)?

really hope theres another solution rather than spending extra money on the pine64+ or, god forbid, rasp pi...

thanks in advance...

Hello everybody!
I want to use KODI on my pine as a media player, but KODI is very laggy. Are there any options for its setting? I have pine with 1Gb ram

Hi has any one tried to setup WOL on the pine running android? Is it even possible?
I'm having problems with the pine shutting completely down (or at least to the point where it dont respond to anything) when short-pressing the powerbutton.

What about Wake On Bluetooth (if there is such a thing). Would that be possible?

Is Ubuntu available for the pine 64+ the two GB version of Pine 64?

I know that for a while one had to build it.
Also, does wi-fi come standard on the Pine 64+ 2GB version?

I do not see where to buy it separately on the Pine 64 website.

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Respectfully,

I've been working on a "glass cockpit" for aircraft.
I have the Pine64+ 2GB, and I'm using Ubuntu.
I made a few circuit boards to stack on the Pi connector: a triple-output (12V, 5V, 3.3V) power supply, a GPS/Pressure/9DOF board, and a 6-input thermocouple board.
(If you want to make your own PCBs, PCBway is unbelievably cheap, and my boards all worked...no problem).

On a 1024x600 LCD, I will provide:
- Attitude indicator (from accelerometer)
- Directional Gyro/Compass (from magnetometer and accelerometer)
- True Airspeed (from differential pressure sensor)
- Turn Coordinator (from accelerometer/gyro)
- Altitude (from GPS...though I might add another pressure sensor for added accuracy/backup)
- Vertical speed (from GPS, same comment on pressure sensor)
- Cylinder head temperature (up to 6 cylinders, from thermocouples)
- Exhaust gas temperature (up to 6 cylinders, from thermocouples)
- Moving Map GPS Navigation
- I still need to make another board to handle inputs for engine RPM, fuel level, oil pressure/temp

The GPS module is using Serial Port 1.
The 9DOF sensor board and differential pressure are using I2C (TWI1).
Temperature sensors are using SPI, and I have a bunch of GPIO and decoders to address individual sensors.

So far, I've tested out the I2C and serial port to confirm they're working.
Still waiting for SPI support.
I also have the attitude indicator designed and rendering (via SDL) based on readings from the accelerometer.
It's been fun so far...
Next, I'll do the compass.
After that, I'll start into rendering the moving map GPS navigation.

Thanks to all on the forums for your support!
