| WiFi/BT module orientation? |

The WiFi/BT module that came with my Pine 64 (has the antenna wire w/ sticker) can be mounted with the antenna connector facing outside (I assume is correct) or inside (facing the A64 chip). I saw one post to this forum where it was mounted backwards, so before I do that too which what is correct orientation?
Thanks,
Don

| Android flashed, SD card shows empty? |

So I followed the directions from the Wiki, downloaded PhoenixCard, downloaded the Android image, and tried to flash my SD card (16GB). Ran PhoenixCard software, following the directions, and it finishes, no errors given, says "magic complete". When I look at the card on my computer though, it doesn't show any files, and shows the card has full capacity still, no storage used. Is this what I should be seeing? I thought it would show some amount of memory used on the card.
I've tried with using images "sun50iw1p1_android_db1000_uart0_0216.img" and "android-ver5.1.1-20160303-pine64-phoenixCard.img" so far, but haven't seen anything on the card afterward with either. Am I missing something, or does this sound right? New to this stuff, so forgive my ignorance if I should not see anything. Thanks.

| Best OS for general use? |

Hey everybody, I just decided to start looking into my Pine board, and I am looking to use it as a general messenger, web surfer box. Nothing fancy, Gmail, youtube, etc. The Pi 2 is painfully slow using raspbian, so I was hoping this would be faster. I'm ok with using Android if need be.
Output is 1080p but possibly eventually 4k (monitor).
Wired network connection.
Any suggestions on which OS is currently the most stable/fastest for those uses?

Issues with Ubuntu MATE |

So I got my pine64 (1GB) up and running following the instructions in damikeh's thread ( http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=622 ) but ran into some issues. Full run-down:
Followed instructions exactly, MATE up and running pretty easily. However,
1. LightDM (/usr/sbin/lightdm-gtk-greeter) was popping up an error at login, and every login I have to login in twice. This error pops up every 5-10 minutes
2. I noticed the Software Boutique is empty but haven't done much with that.
My biggest issues were trying to run Firefox. (Midori works well enough)
1. Firefox won't even pop up, crashing with segmentation faults.
2. This led me to realize that the way this build is installed, it didn't go through the usual setups, so no locales were set.
Fixed the issue:
Code: locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
Then
Code: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
So this worked but kept throwing errors in Firefox: "firefox crashed with sigsegv in raise()"
Any suggestions on this? Starting to wonder if it's just an issue of 16.04 MATE being so fresh and wondering if I should try another desktop image.
Thanks in advance.

Any chance we could get native wiimote/Xbox controller support? I have an Xbox to USB adapter and would love to use it to play games without having to re-change settings after every upgrade

Hello, I recently received my Pine 64 512mb model and have yet to successfully get it booted. I have tried installing android 5.1.1, remix os, and arch linux (all listed on the wiki page), but had no luck. I understand that these state they are tried/require the 1gb model, but I am very eager to get started with my pine. Are there any operating systems the pine 64 512mb model can run? Thanks!

So I got the newest version of Remix and downloaded the Youtube app but it will only allow me to select 480P max. Anyone have any idea what's up with that? Other than that browsing seems fine. Haven't tested much so far.
