The 6 most common reasons why Pine64 won't boot

  1. The official Android and RemixOS images can't be burned the usual way to an SD card (dd, Rufus, WinDiskimager) but need Phoenix Card instead (Windows only and causing all sorts of troubles for users that do not use this strange operating system). Burning an Android image the wrong way will result in the Pine64 waiting endlessly while showing already a red led lighting.
I just love it when people make computer function sound like voodoo. 
Dodgy
So in other words the Android and RemixOS images were made with something other than a real img file compatible source. Gotcha.

p.s. how about instructions on how to use Phoenix card, maybe on the wiki.
