official images...
#1
it's my understanding that the general Android image is "official", but what does that mean?  just that Pine64 people are making it, or is Allwinner supporting it, or at least supporting the people doing the build?

why is the camera app installed when there's no camera option?  why isn't something to access clean reboot and power off installed since there's no buttons?  how does one accidentally disable bluetooth, and why didn't that info get put on the wiki immediately?

when I told people I was getting a pine64 some said "allwinner's are slower than their specs suggest, and their support is terrible" and I'm starting to see that too. So far I am quite unimpressed.  the Pi Zero feels faster than this thing.  I'm getting a ton of not responding messages.  I have a class10 card that passes the tests, and while it's a slow one at 6MB/s writes, the operations I'm doing here don't need any writes.  I can't think of any good reason why things should lag this much when navigating settings, or loading the home screen.  it's terrible.

I'm frustrated, and the lack of attention to detail and lack of communication is getting to me.  

I don't want to dev on the android OS itself, so should I just put this in a box for a couple months and hope it gets better?  is it actually going to get better?
