The Pine64 Site in Stack Exchange has been proposed. Right now is in Area51, as a proposal. Area51 is where all the communities/sites are proposed.

What is Stack Exchange:
Stack Exchange is a network of question and answer Web sites on topics in varied fields, each site covering a specific topic, where questions, answers, and users are subject to a reputation award process. The sites are modeled after Stack Overflow, a Q&A site for computer programming questions that was the original site in this network. The reputation system allows the sites to be self-moderating.

Pine A64+ 1GB backer here. Received my board today.

Downloaded PhoenixCard 3.10, and "Android Image Release 20160216" (Pinea64_android_lollipop_db1000_20160216.zip).

Burned the sun50iw1p1_android_db1000_uart0_0216.img using PhoenixCard in "Startup!" mode.

The board boots and shows a logo for a few seconds, but then shuts down.

I also tried android_dd_20160112.zip and wrote android_20160112.img using dd to the microSD card, but the same thing occurs. It shows the startup logo, but then the power LED turns off.

Is my board dead?

A lot of Boinc projects, now, support android on arm for their simulations (astronomy, physics, biology/medicine, etc).
I'm planning to buy a couple of P64, but i'm scared about temperatures.
No one is using fan?

I can't remember if I listed this before, but here we go:

https://www.edx.org/course/embedded-syst...x-ut-6-03x#!

https://www.coursera.org/specializations/iot

https://www.edx.org/course/electronic-in...x-ee40lx-0#!

I actually went over the specialization lectures quickly and I found them really enlightening to reason about the Pine A64. Currently looking at the Austin one now. All of them have pay options for certificate, but you can watch them all for free.

I've found a significant amount of useful information on the forum, thank you for providing an environment where this information can freely be exchanged.
Unfortunately, I've found one user to be particularly critical of other users, with personal criticism and off-topic remarks. Nothing this user has said has added to the information I've been searching for, and would therefore prefer to hide all of their postings. Is this a forum option? If so, please add it, or if it's available, please let me know where to find it.

Also, I looked for a place to put this post, but found no areas about "infrastructure" or "meta", aside from this "General" category. Apologies if it should be somewhere else.

I was wondering in the image update, if we could get usb camera support for android. This way when we connect a usb camera to the Pine, we can use the usb (since the camera module is semi short) camera natively in android as opposed to the camera module.

With Lets Encrypt giving out free TLS certificates, why is this forum not utilizing a secure connection?

A PINE64A recently arrived, so I started getting it set up for a cluster using OpenMPI or MPICH,  maybe setting up a Hadoop cluster later.
  If you use Longsleep's Ubuntu image, you can install either of the MPI libraries(OpenMPI or MPICH) from the repositories if you're not keen on compiling them from source. They both seem to be the most recent versions, so that's neat.  You might need to edit sources.list to include the universe repositories.
  I'll post details as I get more into it. Right now I've only got the one Pine so I won't be able to get much information out besides what you need and how to get it.

Various proposals for Pine64 use as autopilot.

Hey all!

While anxiously waiting for my PINE64 to arrive my mind has been racing with all the cool things I might be able to do with it.

One thing I'd like to try to do is turn it into a virtual PINEball machine.

I was wondering if anyone knew if the PINE64 is capable of running Visual Pinball or Future Pinball?

Thanks!
