PS: I'm using an USB 3.0 external hard drive plugged in an USB hub which is connected to an external power source.

Hi, you're probably more technical than I am, but I did see your 'PS' and noticed that info wasn't mentioned in the "steps to reproduce" in the issue tracker, so thought it might be worthwhile suggesting here (I know I've been caught with similar things in the past!). So have you tried:
a) plugging the drive directly into Pine64 without the USB hub?
b) a USB 2.0 drive?

I don't have a Pine assembled at the moment or I'd try these myself, especially since I'll need this feature too on ayufan's great Android 6 build, too. So please let us know how you get on!  Smile

Thanks for your help Crispin.

I've managed to get Android (and ES File Explorer) to recognize and mount the disk using a single FAT32 or NTFS partition using MBR partition table.
However now I'm having another issue: Kodi is unable to detect the USB drive so I can't play any files stored on this drive from Kodi.

I've also tried manually browsing from Kodi to /mnt/media_rw/0A67-1313 (where the disk partition gets mounted by Android) but Kodi seems unable to open the /mnt/media_rw directory (dmesg reports an access/permission denied error or something along those lines; I'm not at my PC right now and I can't check).

I'll try to investigate this further and I'll report here if I'll make any progress, but I'm very busy with work these days and I'm not sure if/when I can do that.

Exist a way to update the system without format the micro SD?

Having similar issues. I've had it work once with revision 19, but after a reboot, sound disappeared once again. Trying to figure out what I had done differently to make it work. The newest build (rev. 20) is running so smoothly, I really wanna try and use this as my daily driver. Any hints, ayufan?

ayufan: Would it be possible to add a prameter (e.g. in uEnv.txt) for disabling CEC?

Thank you again for making this board useful with Android!
