Phoenix Card does the following: It checks your card's capacity, then it does a quick format of the card, then applies a MBR (master boot record) and then starts to partition the card in a way that one of the partitions in the middle will be resized to the maximum to store user data later. Android creates a whole bunch of partitions, see here for an example: http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?t...83#pid4883
When you're using a fake card (reporting more capacity than actually available), then since Phoenix Card uses some primitive checksumming it will report fake cards as such. With an error since the last data parts can not be written/verified. Some background on fake cards: http://www.happybison.com/reviews/how-to...sd-card-8/
Most important step before you try to use any flash based media: Check it first (see link above, on Windows you can use 3 different free tools)
I care nothing about fake cards. I Best Buy I'm sure don't sell fakes.
1. Cards were burned.
2. Board gets the card, power and monitor with LAN all connected.
3. Nothing on the monitor when I try to start it.
4. Monitor has two plugs. VGA and DVI. There is an adapter on the DVI for the HDMI.
5. Plug is from my tablet. Have tried it when another one that is a USB connected to the plug for my tablet and the cord is thick.
I never had this trouble when it came to getting the Pi2 to work. I'm starting to think that Pine64 has failed, since I have seen how many others are having the same problems that I'm having.
I have built computers my whole life (my dad sold computers in the 70's and I was the one who helped him get them up and running) and this is the ONLY computer to make me want to take a hammer to it.
Now if no one can help me with this, BUGGER OFF. Go away and leave the thread.

Ok, time to finally quit. Wasting time in this useless forum is moronic.
It doesn't help with people who just attack and go off topic. If anyone is a moron, it's anyone who decides to waste MY time talking about anything other than the problem I'm having.
There are known problems using HDMI > VGA/DVI adapters
Must use 5 volt power supply which provides at minimum 2 amps of current
There was also an issue with having ethernet cable (LAN) plugged in on boot-up
no lan on boot up?
