Ah sweet! Thank you! Honestly a lot of my frustration came from not being able to find stuff, so these links are a massive help!

Now I did exactly this and after rebooting the Pi, I just get a black screen with a movable mouse cursor. Nothing more, it doesn’t matter how long I wait. What problem is this now?

With 6.12, no changes as far as I know

I have changed it to public。 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vyQGR8kgzhCzmwuXhb8q5j707U9IXFob/view?usp=sharing And images of my board: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mKd1T83COy1KDLsmb9PbNnlm5FhdrBbV?usp=sharing

For the source code, after a bit of searching, I found https://de3.mirror.archlinuxarm.org I don't know if this will help you. I also tried the MiniArch-20240715-6.17.1-board-a527.cubie_a5e-SD-Image.img image, but it doesn't work either.

Alt-F2?

Try pipewire instead of pulseaudio

Thank you for sharing. You might want to have a look at Shrink Backup as well.

Official development for inclusion in upstream are carried out by working on the project's main branch. That's exactly what this pull request branch does by tracking the project's master tree. Applying commits to anything else is backporting. Backporting is possible, but you will have to deal with the consequences yourself that arise from your outdated versions lacking the functions required for your backport, and you may need to backport those as well. Since this project is a user program and not a framework with libraries that other programs depend on, it is solely the user who has to deal with it as a dependency in its use. At first, I also tried to use the sources of the current release version as a base, but since the commits couldn't be applied without errors, I simply built the current master branch. For the FFMPEG framework, this is already a whole different ballgame. There are many programs, which mpv is just one, that depend on the libraries and need to be rebuilt accordingly in case of an upgrade. Since my chosen distribution recently released ffmpeg 8.0 and thus made all dependent programs available accordingly, I just had to rebuild the ffmpeg package with the v4l2request support commits and put that in place. And since the commits could be applied to the current release sources without any errors, I didn't even need to switch to the master branch.

What do you mean by "normal" and WiFi direct?

Orange PI has very good hardware (better than RPI) but bad support of software from factory devellopers. Raspberry PI 5 is a bit slower but we have more support and always new versions. I have both.

@Maurizio Finesso Try editing on a linux machine instead of windows. I've seen some windows machines not be able to read the boot partition

In this case ethernet chip is realtek so it should be supported by armbian kernel? So problem is to find or make a modern DTS for this board?

This site deals with Armbian Linux not android. You should direct your question about restoring Android to a more appropriate forum

not recommended for rockchip socs since it cannot handle the rather high baud rate of 1.5Mbaud. Use FT232, CH340 or CP2104 instead.

Hello all, Ok, I'm going to comment on my own question here... I just now installed the Armbian 25.8.0 6.18.0 RC5 xfce version. It's not yet on the nvme drive but, it's significant faster than the 25.5.1 version. Now HD video works on the 5b+. It needs 2 seconds to stabilize but than it is perfectly fine to watch. I use Firefox as my browser. So thanks to the team! Ernst-Jan

Hi all, I would like to ask support for the board EMB-3531. I'm having problem with booting this board from SD card. Here are some informations about this board. I hope that someone can help me with it. Thank you so much! I try to erase the emmc and flash the MiniLoaderAll.bin but it doesn't help. Or i don't have a correct image with armbian for this board. https://my.kos.org.cn:5154/rockchip/EMB3531/emb3531.pdf

Try from here: https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/incoming/igorpecovnik/ (this is going to be next release - first test build).

Your best bet is to compile your own image. It's super easy: "git clone https://github.com/armbian/build.git;cd build;./compile.sh" https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Building-with-Docker/ https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQcEFsXEJEE

I hope this helps... For the TX3 Mini, I used the distributions listed on https://www.armbian.com/amlogic-s9xx-tv-box/. Here's what I did: * Create a bootable image using Rufus (following the instructions). * Once the image was created, I went to the SD card's storage drive on a PC and made the following changes: * In the root directory of the SD card, I copied the file u-boot-s905x-s912 and pasted it as u-boot.ext. * In extlinux\extlinux.conf, on line 4, I changed it to "fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905w-tx3-mini.dtb". * I ejected the SD card, inserted it into the TX3 Mini, and turned it on. If it doesn't work, try a different distribution.

@laibsch https://u-boot.org/ edit: as I said earlier, it would be better to switch to upstream to get rid of patches and get some nice bugfixes in the process, but I assume this thing is mostly abandoned. A bunch of my containers no longer offer ARM32 support. Home Assistant too at the end of this year.

There are no other images available at the moment. Regarding this, there is some initial but incomplete work in progress here: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8831 We can’t merge it in its current state, as it still requires a significant amount of additional work and refinement. Unfortunately, this means there isn’t a quick solution right now, so we’ll need to wait until the implementation is completed and validated.

Apparently the key needs to go to `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/armbian.gpg` too...

hello i have updated with wrong firmware throw usb c nothing happens when flashing with USB_Burning_Tool or booting from sd card this box has no recovery button only on off inside earsphone
