Can't get android to boot past initial startup screen
#4
I have the same issue (Android boot doesn't advance past the splash screen either 20160112 or 20160216) on my 2GB board with only the HDMI and 2.4amp 5VDC power supply plugged in. I'm sure my SD card is class 10 and, being a firmware engineer, am pretty technically advanced.

I installed and use the reset switch which is supposed to be a more positive reset than power application. I was able to boot the Longsleep Arch Linux Image (which has a known 2GB/Ethernet problem), though it does crash frequently when booting up.

I'd appreciate a heads up if someone is aware of an Android/2GB/RevB problem and will probably put the Pine64 aside until the new Linux image with functional Ethernet is brought up.

Huh

My bad. I reran the PhoenixCard flash of the 20160216 image and after starting it got distracted for about 15 minutes. I returned and discovered that I had previously not given PhoenixCard enough to complete thus flashing an incomplete image to my SD card. PhoenixCard does report "Burn Success" multiple times but, Doh!
