Hi! 
I'm going to attempt to revive this 2 year old thread.
Recently I bought a Pine64-LTS and the 7" LCD touchscreen from the shop. I'm now attempting to get the LCD to work with it using a Linux image, but so far: no luck.
What I've tried is really simple:
- boot the LTS with both builds by Armbian, taken from their Sopine page; the Debian Strecht image and the Ubuntu Bionic image, both of them version 5.83. They seem to run great on the device, SSH'ing works and upgrading all packages to their latest versions (# apt update && apt upgrade) works as well.
- adding 'pine64_lcd=on' to /boot/armbianEnv.txt and adding 'gt9xxf_ts' to /etc/modules, then rebooting.
The LTS still happily boots after this with images (yay!), but the LCD does not come up with an image and backlight isn't turning on either.
I'm using the 'official' 5V 3A power supply, which I assume to be sufficient to power the board and the LCD.
Has anybody else attempted this already and willing to share their configuration working with me? Thanks in advance!
