Friends,

This is how you can use pine64 image with OPI win plus and get  the  usb working. (i do not have OPI win. Those who have, plese help others  with your observation)
OPI have a USB hub, unlike other boards. The device tree file is different for OPI. fortunately there is little or no difference between Linux and Android kernels...  

1) Download the ubuntu image and write it on sdcard using etcher or win32 disk imager.
2) Mount the sdcard in your windows or linux laptop/desktop and in the boot partition. search for the .dtb file.
3) once found, copy the file to your desktop.
4) Then write the Pine64 Android 7.0 image on the sdcard using etcher or win32 disk imager.
5) Mount the sdcard in your windows or linux laptop/desktop and in the boot partition. look for pine64 folder.
6) you will find three (more or less)  dtb files there. Move those files to some place on your desktop. Note down the names of files.
7) Copy the earlier dtb (from ubuntu image) file in pine64 folder on sdcard. ensure to make same number of copies, as that of original dtb files in it and ensure to rename the files as per the names of earlier files you moved.
8) Then insert the sdcard in OPI win plus and enjoy...

What doesnt work...

1) Network and bluetooth.   ( i am still checking how to get this sorted)
2) I havent tested the ethernet, but saw some error messages.

Any contribution from other to get this working is appreciated..

I have te Opi Win for about a month and I couldn't make it work. On some distros no wifi, on others no wifi or bluetooth, on others no IR.
Crappy support. Sell it and get a raspberry pi, this chinese shit ain't worth the pain in the ass.

Hi,

As I have no OPI Win to test and do not use android on my OPI PC, I can only offer a bit guess work ;)
I would choose the right package (stock, miicro, mini, etc.) install it then via adb.

Unfortunately software support of OPI WIN is really bad..

Yes, I guess we bought the wrong board

I tried many Android .imgs, but allways the USB problem.
The Pine 64 android 6 .img's boot pretty fast, are designed for the same processor, come rooted, but I don't know how to make USB work. The problem is ovbiously OPI WIN PLUS board, because with OPI WIN PLUS official Android it works very bad, I connect wireless keyboard with integrated mousepad and it only recognize mouse
