Hi! Any chance to get portrait orientation?

I think it is not possible, I read faq from h3droid and there it says that it is not yet officially supported

That's sad. Hope they'll get to portrait orientation at some point. Even without rotation - that should be fine.

in my experiments i have managed to rotate screen in a few ways, but results were far from perfect. ie. it was 1280x1024 rotated and fit into 1024x1024. still, maybe i will find the magic piece of code that will do what is needed

Thank you for the efforts and great development, H3Droid Team!

Recently I saw that there are official Android 7 builds for OrangePi, e.g. for the OPi PC as mentioned here.

It seems that this includes also GPU drivers as Kodi 17 and Youtube apps seem to play videos smooth, hence I guess they work with hardware decoding.
It also seems to work nicely with 4K resolution at 30Hz via HDMI.

Do you plan on building a version of H3Droid with Android 7 support? And what about 4K resolution - do you plan on supporting it? Is 30Hz the highest possible refresh rate at this resolution for the Mali 400 MP2?

Thank you in advance!
Keep up the great work!

Guys, no news about GPIO access?

I've installed successfully raspbian jessie-minimal in dual boot mode on my OPI-PC.

Btw i don't know any login account, do you know them?

i didnt know we had raspbian image? anyway, if its ARMBIAN, default login and password can be found here: https://docs.armbian.com/

I've figured out the default root:1234 password was correct, but for some reason my keyboard was not sending the digit keys correctly.
Turning on the NumLock and using the numpad solved the issue!
