Rock64 - Use as desktop
#15
Although I have received my Rock64 4Gb only a few weeks ago and after waiting weeks for it to arrive I am now attempting to use as a desktop with Android 7.12 on a 64 Mb emmc. I have Ubuntu mate on a generic 8 Mb micro sd. Soon I will try mate on a 64 Mb evo plus in the hope of better performance. To install mate on the micro sd, was reletively simple, after downloading and using the dd command on my Rpi3. To install Android I had to resort to borrowing a laptop with Windows 7 and using a male to male usb cable as per the instructions.

So far Android has much better performance than mate. Both Android 7 and the Rock64 are fairly new and new to me. I like single board computers but they are not always an easy ride. I have no desire to go back to using tower or laptop computers.
