Pine A64+ won't boot?
#30
Just wanted to provide a quick update. Things have been running stable for me since my last post - I'm using a dedicated 5v 2.1A USB micro power supply and the same SD card, along with a wired mouse, keyboard and USB controller on an unpowered hub. I've since added a nice 15mmx15mm copper heatsink for the CPU and two small aluminum heatsinks for the RAM.

I also added a power button using the header on the side of the board. I scavenged a push-button from an old DVD player that works perfectly.

I'm running a SNES emulator (Retroarch Snes9xnext core) with a graphics-heavy game under Android as a benchmark - and the CPU gets extremely hot. However, it is completely stable during the 40+ minute test run. I'm not certain if the system throttles when temperatures hit a certain threshold, but it seems to stay at full speed now that the heatsinks are in place.

In any case, things are running well now.
