  Touchscreen Alternatives
Posted by: NoahJ - 02-23-2016, 01:18 AM - Forum: LCD and Touch Panel - Replies (10)

Hey everyone!

In build the pledge for my Pine A64+, I decided that I wanted to build a bigger tablet, and have been looking around for a 9" touchscreen to use instead of the supplied 7".  (And I could get everything together faster.)  However, despite frequent searches on Ebay and Amazon, I have yet to find any alternative modules for the touchscreen in the size I want.  So, any suggestions on where I could look next?  Or is just keep looking on Ebay and Amazon? 

Or does anything like that exist in the $40 to $50 range with the right connector?


  Content of IoT Kit?

Does anyone know if you get a z-wave for Europe when choosing the EU plug option when ordering the Iot Kit?
Thanks for your help


  Holiday - Upgrade question
Posted by: isfacat - 02-22-2016, 03:08 PM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (7)

So I'm one of the people who backed the Holiday Pine A64+ 1GB, and I wanted to upgrade it to the 2GB board.

However, I've been informed that if I upgrade to the 2GB board, my shipping date will be delayed further back. This is not a viable option for me.

I have yet to compete my survey until I can get an answer on why this is so.


  IR Receiver
Posted by: hrh1818 - 02-22-2016, 01:58 PM - Forum: Accessories - Replies (13)

The Wiki says:  "IR receiver (no need to staff IR connector, just reserved 3 pin connectors Vcc, CIR_RX, Gnd)  
What does this mean?   Is a IR receiver built into Pine A64?   Is any additional wiring or modification required to be made to the Pine A64 to be able to use the IR remote control with the Pine A64?

I looked at the schematic but it doesn't clear up the confusion.

  GitLab CE?
Posted by: johnkacz - 02-22-2016, 12:28 PM - Forum: Pine A64 Projects, Ideas and Tutorials - Replies (4)

I'm wondering if it might eventually be possible to have Pine64 with GitLab installed on it. They currently have a version for Raspbian Wheezy (https://about.gitlab.com/downloads/)


  2 GB Addon
Posted by: SteveAngelis - 02-22-2016, 10:55 AM - Forum: POT modules - Replies (2)

Hi,

I noticed with the 2GB addon that it says 'light assembly required'. Does anyone know what this will entail? Will this mean soldering is required or just plug in and go?

  Android Emulation?
Posted by: JoeHz - 02-22-2016, 01:30 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - No Replies

I've got my order in with the kick starter.

I've even downloaded the image from the wiki. 

What I've never done before is add a hardware image to the AVD Emulator. I'd like to be able to do this as my A64 isn't gong to ship until April. I've gotten as far as subjecting the archive to 7-Zip. the .img file therein it claims is corrupted.

I gotta believe this has been done before but I didn't see it. Can someone throw me a pointer? 

I assume it's going to result in files that go under the system-images/android-22 directory. I just need to get to that point.

Thanks in advance


Question Need Clarification: KS Pledge Description vs. BackerKit Description
Posted by: MashaT22 - 02-21-2016, 07:43 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (5)

Hi all! This is literally my first post here on the Pine forum, so I apologize if it's not in the right section.

I am having some trouble figuring out what I'm getting from my base pledge vs. what it says on BackerKit. I pledged for the "$89 Pine A64+ Bow w/ Touch Screen" on Kickstarter. According to the Kickstarter reward description, I am supposed to be getting the following: 

  • PINE A64+ 1GB unit along with 64GB MicroSD Pre-Loaded with Android 5.1 OS
  • 802.11N Wifi + Bluetooth 4.0
  • PINE64 Power Supply
  • 7" LCD touchscreen panel
  • the PINE64 Enclosure
  • 2GB upgrade available for $10 later.
   

My problem is that BackerKit seems to use another description, so now I'm not sure exactly what I'm getting from my base pledge. I am trying to avoid ordering double components that I'll already be getting from my base pledge. So here is what it says in BackerKit (I'll list my questions/comments alongside in blue and red): 
  • 1 64GB MicroSD Android (This is clear . . . a 64GB MicroSD that's pre-loaded with Android.)
  • 1 7" LCD Touch Screen (This is clear . . . I get the touch screen.)
  • 1 PINE64 ABS PlayBox Enclosure (This is not clear. I see that there's a PlayBox enclosure that seems to hold the screen, PINE64, and battery. So does this mean that I won't be getting the clear PINE64 enclosure mentioned above that was shown during the campaign? Or will I be getting both the PlayBox AND the clear enclosure?)
  • 1 PINE 64 USA Power Supply (This is clear . . . getting a USA power supply cord.)
  • 1 802.11BGN  Wifi/BT 4.0 Module (This is clear . . . getting the wifi/Bluetooth 4.0 module)
  • 1 PlayBox Kit (This is not clear . . . there is no mention of a PlayBox Kit on BackerKit. It can't be the same thing as the PlayBox Enclosure listed above. There's a "Media Kit" listed in BackerKit, but I can't assume that they're the same thing. So what is this PlayBox Kit and which components does it include?)
  • 1 PINE A64+2GB (This is clear . . . This is my PINE with the 2gb upgrade.)
   

So can anyone here clarify the points in red above? I'd like to know what those things mean before adding in extra add-ons. As as said, I'd hate to order doubles of anything I'm already getting. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide me with some sure answers!  Smile


  housing idea
Posted by: norm24 - 02-21-2016, 12:01 PM - Forum: Enclosures - Replies (7)

If I get the dimensions for the connections, I'll offer this housing at Shapeways. Variants for the different extension parts are then also feasible.
