Bootable SD card with android image - mcs_dodo - 05-14-2016
Is there any alternative way how to make bootable SD card with an android image for pine? I've tried to make bootable SD with win32discimager with remix OS and it's incredibly slow (i'm not sure if it's the win32discimager or what's the case - I've tried multiple sd cards already). I would like to try android too, but the Phoenix software just doesn't seem to work. Any ideas how to workaround this?

I use Phoenix and Win32DiskImager. Had no issues so far. Just Phoenix doesnt recognize the .img sometimes.

I am using a program called etcher. It has burned all of the images from the download site without any problems.

It shouldn't be all that slow. Two questions:
1) what SD card are you using?
2) Did you follow the instructions on burning with Phoenix ? (did you set it to 'Startup!' ?)

I got an external card reader and managed to burn it with phoenix (startup! mode). Still incredibly slow. My card is Kingston Micro SDHC 32GB UHS-I U3, I've already replaced it with the seller (official and proven seller in my country) to find out whether the piece is faulty. I have connected DELL U2211 LCD screen (1920x1080 resolution) with HTMI->DVI cable.
With phoenix it boots, but the UI is still responding very slowly, almost with every app I see screen "XYZ app is not responding. Wait? End?"
Any hints what could cause the trouble? My pine is 2GB version, with WiFi in place. I use power adapter from my iPad which should be just enough.

Could be a power issue - could you please specify what PSU (you should use AT LEAST a 5V 2A) and cable (you should preferably use a 20AWG) you are using?
Once you provide these we can try troubleshooting further. You can also join in on IRC so we can troubleshoot your issue 'live' (see my sig).

I bought the official RPI3 PSU with 5,1V 2,5A to try out whether this a power related issue. OS still lags.

Try the DD image build. For Phoenixcard build method, please always give some time (at least 15 minutes) for system to finish its background initialization process on first time boot up. During the initialization process, the OS can be lagging.
