Hmm. I would say no, due to lack of Pine A64 specific drivers. The LCD will not know how to communicate with the Pine without the appropriate drivers. From reading the questions and answers, as well as the reviews, it seems the screen ships with platform-specific drivers.
And from reading the description, you get this:
"For other mini-PCs, driver is required and should be developed by users"
RE: LCD DISPLAY - MarkHaysHarris777 - 08-01-2016
it should be pointed out that any LCD touch display with 30 pin connector and touch connector should work, given the appropriate drivers.
The official LCD display DOES NOT work with any of our gnu+linux images, nor does it work with most of the Android or Remix images. We have 'ONE' Android image that works currently with the official display; because the engineers have placed the appropriate proprietary drivers in the image.
Any hdmi LCD panel (without touch) should work IF the pinouts can be mapped to the DSI connector (which might require a connector adapter--- I don't have any in mind right now ! ).
Obviously this is the weak link as far as making the PineA64 mobile. We have people working on making the official LCD work with gnu+linux (just a matter of time now, since they have their hands on the hardware and can tinker).
