I am using Linux (Ubuntu 14.04) and I'd like to run Android on my Pine64 2GB board.
I have 16GB SD card, and I can't seem to make any of the images boot, so I come here out of despair.
The image I've currently downloaded from this page is android-ver5.1.1-20160711-pine64-16GB.img, zip file MD5 hash FAA48E4261451C1F54094AB6C253E76C.
Here's the command I used to burn the image:
$ dd if=/path/to/android-ver5.1.1-20160711-pine64-16GB.img bs=32M | pv -s 16G | dd of=/dev/mmcblk0p1 bs=32M
The process, however, finished when the progress bar was at 93%, but no error were thrown:
16004415488 bytes (16 GB) copied, 1283,6 s, 12,5 MB/s
The file size is 16088301568, so obviously there's something wrong.
I attempted also to burn the image using Gnome Disks utility, but it complains that the image is 83 MB bigger than the target device.
The Disks utility says my SD card size is "16 GB (16 005 464 064 bytes)", so apparently 16088301568-16005464064=82837504 is a problem. But why would there be a slightly-too-big image file for download? Its confusing.
I think I am too puzzled to move on now. Any suggestions how to get a proper image file and/or how to burn the current one?
