How and When will I be able to order the PineBook?


  Struggling to get Android running
Posted by: qwe - 10-25-2022, 11:57 AM - Forum: Android on PINE A64-LTS / SOPINE - Replies (1)

My recently-purchased Pine A64-LTS runs Armbian swimmingly. I also need to run Android on it— a seemingly trivial task, but one that has brought me to my wits end.

Here's what I've tried:

  • The official Android 6.0 image (in its 32GB variant). The first time I extracted and burned this image, I saw a blue light appear on the board, noticed that the CPU was running hot to the touch, and nothing else. I extracted and burned the image two more times and saw nothing at all happen.
  • The Android 7.1 community image. This image allows the board to turn on— however, it loops forever at the Android splash screen (in which it plays a fun animation before, in a normal scenario, shifting to the word "Android".) I attempted to burn it a second time with the same result.
  • The Android 6.0 community image. This image successfully boots, but something is clearly horribly wrong. It runs at ~10FPS with significant lag in all menus, and I can't get any sort of internet connection— neither Ethernet nor a USB Ethernet adapter yield a link, and wifi and Bluetooth refuse to turn on. The Ethernet jack on the board blinks an orange light rapidly forever. Thus, this image is unusable. I attempted to burn it a second time with the same result.

All images were burned the same Samsung 32GB microSD card using a ThinkPad built-in microSD slot, running Arch Linux with the following command:
Code:
sudo dd if=./IMAGE of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1MiB status=progress conv=fsync

Note that this exact combination was able to successfully boot Armbian prior.

Clearly, something is going horribly wrong with my board, being unable to boot Android despite so many failed attempts to make it so. My next attempts will be to boot the 8GB variant of the official Android 6 image, as well as the official Android 5 image, but I don't expect them to yield fruit. Though this is clearly a dated board with little support at this point, I'm posting here in the unlikely event that someone here will have some ideas.


  Boards with no OS and acceleration?
Posted by: Civil_Rick_9876 - 10-24-2022, 06:14 PM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

I'm not sure if any pine products support this but I'll ask.

I was thinking about writing a toy OS. There two big problem I can see. 1. No hardware acceleration on graphics. I want to be able to render images and move them around and completely draw a new screen @60hz. I prefer 1080 but 60@720 would be fine 2. Boot up without writing much or any code. I hear there's a lot of work to get an ARM to boot properly. I don't really need libc (although I expect that to be available) but I'd like to be able to compile hello world and have the board show it on screen (or serial port) without me writing much code.

I was thinking about using an arduino which I have experience with but I've never done anything using HDMI or graphics with it. Typically arduinos give you a basic library for various shields and lets you use C to write your code.


  Mobian can't resolve repo

On PPP, each time I run `sudo apt update` I get a load of "Could not resolve repo.mobian.org" errors. Any ideas?

Hello,

Is there a directory I can find the SMS and MMS within?

Thank you


  WiFi stopped on Pinebook Pro after update
Posted by: tkudog - 10-24-2022, 09:58 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

After being gone for a month, I returned yesterday 23 Oct 2022 and thought 'let's update the Pinebook pro while I unpack'.  Running Manjaroo.  So I did, and after restart, WiFi no longer works.  Networks show "No available connections".  WiFi is on through the privacy switch (2 led blinks).  Any ideas how to fix?


Thumbs Up NVMe adapter, Great addition
Posted by: dachalife - 10-24-2022, 07:51 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi all, installed the NVMe adapter and it is outstanding!

Just added a TB of storage; went with a Samsung 980 and no issues so far.

I wanted to post so others knew it was an easy & affordable upgrade.


  Issues with PinePower Desktop
Posted by: superkamiguru - 10-24-2022, 07:43 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

I had posted in a previous thread about a similar issue, but thought it best to create a new post since that one was becoming rather old. 

I purchased the PinePower Desktop a couple of weeks ago, and while it charges devices well, it constantly power cycles if there isn’t anything plugged into it. I tried reaching out to the seller, but they had directed me to this forum for support. Is there a firmware update that should be applied to the device?


  nextcloud setup
Posted by: mruser1 - 10-23-2022, 01:35 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (2)

I could not find this in the wiki. I am to set up nextcloud. I go to settings / account / add nextcloud account.
When I enter my url, I get a
"unable to connect to nextcloud at the given server url. please check the server url"
Which kind of address should it be exactly?

Say, I can log in on https://www.example.com/myfolder/index.php/login then what should be the address?
