Has anybody had any issues with this? 

I can get audio out of the audio jack but I cant get any audio from the HDMI.
I have the pine 64 with the 2gig board.

I haven't seen this mentioned yet, apologies if it has been answered.

I used win32 disk imager and the latest Android image on a 32 GB card.  The system runs like a dream, but only reports 4 GB of usable space (it detects 32 GB of flash, interestingly).

So I popped the card back in my reader on my pc and noticed that the disk has 3 partitions--I'm guessing a small boot partition, the android partition, and the usable flash.  The remaining 20+ GB are simply unpartitioned.

How do I gain access to that extra space?

What am I doing wrong?
1. All distributions (Remix, Ubuntu, Debian, Android) have a big lags in video 720P. Android lag in the interface, some applications can not be opened, is very slow.
2. Board sometimes hangs (from overheating?)
3. The first time after idle HDMI is not working. Need to reboot
4. Do not work USB 3.0 Hard Drive 1TB
5. No sound via HDMI

I have Nillkin 2A DC adapter and Transcend Premium 300x micro SD card
I would like to make a simple file server... Any ideas?

Is there a usb wifi dongle that works? I've tried WiPi and 2 others and haven't had much luck. Am I missing something?

Like other people here, I'm experiencing problems with the network connection when using gigabit ethernet on Android 5 (and Remix OS). The connection becomes unreliable and very slow. On Remix OS I can use my USB/Ethernet dongle, this does not work on Android.

Since a rooted image of Android is now available, I have been trying to force the eth0 link to 100mbps without success.

What I did was:

su
ifconfig eth0 media 100baseTX

Tried also several other strings such as 100, 100baseT, etc.. no go.

Someone knows which mode correspond to the 100mbps mode?
Ethtool may help on this? How to install it?


This may be a good workaround for people without wifi card and that can't change downgrade the speed on the router.

Thanks.

I received my package in the past week and just now getting to mess with it. I bought the official pine 64 clear case but i didn't get any screws or the posts to connect the two pieces together....is this normal? If so can someone point me in the direction to get the necessary hardware...if not how do we notify them that there are parts missing?

Got my pine64 2GB 3 days ago: so far so good !

I installed/updated the latest longsleep Archlinux system with Xfce4.
Only snafu so far is the Chromium problem reported in this forum.

My goal is to use the pine64 as a file server to my home network.
Installed samba via pacman, configured the smb.conf file and was up and running.

With the help of the friendly folks at altdrive.com I was able to install
the altdrive Java-based backup service, including its GUI client.

I will give this setup a little time to settle, and then will swap out my old trusty i386-based server.

I download source code from here (http://www.cnx-software.com/2015/12/10/a...urce-code/)

I download android_A64_A5.1_V1.0.tar.gz and android_prebuilts_A64_A5.1_V1.0.tar.gz file. 

And I unzip these files and compile those on unbuntu 14.04 LTS

I type these commands.

A64_AOSP$source build/envsetup.sh
A64_AOSP$lunch                             // < -----I choose [aosp_arm64-eng]
A64_AOSP$make -j4

Then ... it's compile start .. but  occurs some error messages that


[6~make: *** No rule to make target `hardware/aw/widevine/widevine_L/Android.mk'.  Stop.]

Have any body compile it successful ? or Any help is appreciated.

Thanks ~

I am mostly interested in programming under ARM64 in Linux, so I am starting this thread here.

I want to gather peoples interests in different programming languages and the current state of them under ARM64. This includes the programming language itself, and the libraries. I am doing that because ARM64 is very new platform. And PINE64 is basically first generally available computer with ARM64. Previous ones were very expensive, so anything other than few languages needed to run some basic functions (C, C++, Python, Bash, Perl and PHP to run maybe a web server), was not really tested or easy to port without access to cheap hardware by developers.

This is both for my amusement, for showing the state of the platform, and maybe as a guide for other people what can be done with Pine.

Let me divide support into 3 categories or classes. If somebody have some experience about these languages/libraries under Pine64 or other ARM64 board, or under other systems (MacOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD) under normal PC (x86, amd64), and want to add something to the list, by testing it under PINE64, please post comments below.

1st class support (compilers and most libraries fully available upstream, and packaged into all major Linux distributions, works out of the box, and there is no major obstacles to use fully the language). This will also include most of the interpreted languages, with working interpreter. But remember that even interpreted languages often interact with C, C++ and host systems in many libraries (i.e. PHP libraries are often written in C, same with Python)

• C (gcc and clang compilers)
  
• C++ (gcc and clang compilers)
  
• Go (gcgo compiler)
  
• PHP
  
• Python 2.x and 3.x
  
• Perl 5
  
• Ruby
  
• JavaScript, Node.js - under V8, Chromium and Firefox
  
• Unix shell scripting like Bash, ZSH, KSH, etc.
  
• Erlang and Elixir (no HiPE support for aarch64, just arm and other archs, but interpreter works. LLVM backend in the works).
  
• Scheme (multiple implementations works just fine. not tested native code compilers)
  
• Java using OpenJDK environment (Tested OpenJRE9, but it older should work too, including OpenJDK too)
  
• Ada (tested gnat-6 6.1.1)
  
• Haskell (tested Glagow Haskell Compiler 7.10.3 with -fllvm backend)
  
• OCaml (tested ocaml 4.02.3)
  
• Fortran (tested gfortran-5 5.3.1)
  
• Forth (tested gforth 0.7.3)
  

• Rust - compiler should work (LLVM based), but core libraries are not yet ready
  
• D 2.x (gdc compiler, ldc compiler maybe) - gdc compiler almost works, phobos almost ready
  
• Groovy
  
• Elm
  
• Kotlin
  
• C#, F#, etc under Mono virtual machine and its compilers
  
• Haskell
  
• OCaml
  
• OpenCL
  
• Clojure
  
• Swift
  
• Objective-C
  
• PyPy
  
• Lua, and LuaJIT
  
• Lisp, ie. Common Lisp
  
• Scala
  
• Dart
  
• Fortran (i.e. gfortran
  
• Ada (i.e. gnat)
  
• Jython
  
• Octave
  
• R
  
• Nemerle
  
• Pascal (i.e. Gnu Pascal)
  
• Vala
  

• Eiffel
  
• Visual Basic
  
• Fortress
  
• Delphi
  
• Maple
  
• Matlab
  
• Mathematica
  
• Sawzall
  
• Oberon
  
• Escher
  
• Factor
  

Pine64 2gb with the wifi module and power supply. Everything Boots up perfectly fine and seems to work great with both Remix OS and Android 5.1; however, when I try to add my google account I get a message that says it cant connect to google services. I've tried on wifi and on ethernet with the same results. Additionally, when I open chrome, many websites will not load.  So far I have only been able to connect to facebook, pine64's homepage, and youtube (which will only let me play videos if I request the desktop page).  Exact same issues with android 5.1 and Remix OS. I've tried formatting and rewriting the image file multiple time. Any help is appreciated.
