Crappy SD cards (fake or substandard) or bad image burns account for about 60% of Pine board failures; the rest can usually be accounted for due to crappy or under-volt power supplies.
We recommend Samsung Evo Plus Class 10 32G cards. Use a power supply of 5v @ 2500ma 2.5A and if possible power the board via the euler bus pin(4 +5v) and pin(6 ground). ( the micro usb connector is substandard and will not provide stable voltage|current particularly during boot.
Get yourself a serial to usb ttl bridge adapter cable. This will allow you to monitor the serial console during bootup which will help you diagnose what is happening; usually the Pine board is in fact booting, but the hdmi is not working for some reason ; usually due to monitor specs, etc.
Also, notice whether the LED(s) are blinking on the eth jack; do you see it attach on your router ? You can ssh to it if so!

First
thank you for your fast response
I shell look for a Samasung Evo Plus card
(I'm using new Kingston 32 SD HC class 10 card...
or
a new SanDisk ULTRA 32 HD class 10 cards...)
I'm using the original power supply..
how can I connect the power supply to the euler bus?
I connect a normal lan cable to the eth jack and to a router
the LEDs are blinking and I "map" my network and yes the pine 64 got a IP address
and I can ping to it
but I couldn't connect to him using Putty - But that was a great Idea!!
so
the board work good
the power supply is OK
the MicroSD is OK too
so I need to solve the screen problem (I ordered a 7'' screen from pine-A64 few days ago)
