[note] It seems current android build is fussy on SD card brands, if performance seems slow, or freezes then try another SD card
Good cards: Samsung 16GB, Sandisk
Problematic cards: Tosiba Exceria, Intenso 64GB

Thanks! Will flash this weekend. New to the TB and my first go with V13.13.0.74 was a terrible experience.

Doesn't boot for me, is stuck at the tinkerboard screen. Anyone got this to work yet?
I tried the current official build by Asus but it only boots to recovery and doesn't do anything from there.

Yeah, I found the problem. Android doesn't play nice with some SD Cards.
With my Sandisk one it worked for some reason.

Thank you very much for this sir. I will be flashing immediately. I've been using IanFaim's method to flash the play store once the system is booted but this will be much easier.

I've updated wiki instructions in
#1 is to use the latest version of Play Store and Play Services, for those who failed previously may want to try again...

The Google drive image is not working properly.
Android starts up, but freeze or has lags.
When you try to log in Google account TB reboots.
Then Google Store doesn't start
You see a warning Google Services is not updated, but I can't update so Google Store doesn't start.
By now, the better tutorial to add Google Services is ETA Prime's youtube video (

His worked fine for me, had one minor crash. After that works fine, a lot of benchmark apps dont like the tinker, therwise its fine. Tried the ETA Prime methiod and that constantly crashed google play services. Mikerr's setup has been fine
