== How to Create MicroSD Card Android Image for Pine A64 ==

=== What do I need? ===

# The PhoenixCard software from Allwinner.
# You can download it [https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0cEs0lxTtL3VmstaEFfbmU1NFk/view?usp=sharing here]
# A firmware image (.img files)
# A SD-Card (best Class 10 with 8GB or more SD-Card) - backup everything first, the Card will be formatted!
# An external SD-Card Reader
# A Windows PC

=== Step to create the SD-Card ===

[[File:PCard_Main.jpg|none|750px|PhoenixCard running on Windows]]

# Extract the PhonixCard-xx.rar file into an empty directory.
# Navigate into the directory where you installed PhoenixCard and start PhoenixCard.exe.
# Click '''DiskCheck''' and choose the drive with your SD-Card
# Click '''Img File''' and choose the file you want
# Write Mode must be set to '''Startup'''
# Press '''Burn'''
# Wait until the burning process is finished (you will see the progress in the progress bar and the notification window)

=== Booting Up the SD-Card ===

# Insert the SD-Card into the Pine64 and Power-up
# On the first time boot-up, it might take up to 5 minute for the system to get ready
# On the sub-sequence boot-up, it will only take about 40 to 60 second for the system to get ready
