Looks like they just announced the online shop is open, with delayed shipping (no orders will ship till end of May or later). I glance around and see a HDMI-DVI adapter and wonder with all the posts on here if it actually works? LOL

Hi, i am a new owner of a PINE64

I have already a RPi B and i found online a pdf to print (2d printer) on a plain cardboard. Then I cut it following the lines, fold it, a bit of scotch tape and made a 0$ enclosure.

I searched online but I didn't find anything similar for the Pine64 (since the communities are, for now, not comparable)

Someone of you has searched and found or made something similar?

Thank you very much

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 ~
