yep, thats how i connected them i think it might be that? ill try to get some fresh wires and see if it helps

Boot while looking at the serial output, what do you see?

Self compiled Armbian Bookworm + XFCE with Linux Edge 6.15.x Then follow all the instructions in https://forum.armbian.com/topic/32449-repository-for-v4l2request-hardware-video-decoding-rockchip-allwinner/#findComment-176981 Then add extraargs=cma=256M to armbianEnv.txt

I also confirmed that USB-C functionality is still not working on ODROID-M2 with Kernel 6.16 RC. I guess we would have to wait a little more for the working USB-C Port.

@ccs1664 thanks for the information, but i already have a image that works on my mxq pro 4k 5g allwinner h313, but im struggling how to boot in the sd card, and i cant enter recovery mode too (it showed an update screen but nithing updated) im glad you replied to my situation.

Depending on your location this might not be anything that can be fixed on Armbian side. If this happens on any mirror, the issue is either your setup or ISP blocking access.

@rafaeldavid My device appears to have the same problem as yours. What was your fix? @Nick AThanks! The chips on the motherboard include H313, AXP313A, KMQN10006B-B318, and EA6521QF (Wi-Fi + BT chip). I have the Linux driver package for this Wi-Fi chip. this Wi-Fi chip (EA6521QF) likely isn't supported by mainline Linux kernel.I’ll figure out how to integrate it later when I need to use Wi-Fi. Using Wi-Fi is not the most important thing; the key is that I want to install it into the eMMC instead of booting from the SD card. May I ask what modifications I need to make to the original Armbian project code based on the dts I provided to ensure stable read/write operations on the eMMC without crashes? Moreover, I've already tried using a different TF card. These same cards work fine when installing to eMMC on my other X96Q (DDR v5.1), but they keep freezing up on this device.。 dmesg.txt

THANK YOU

I get this warning because I removed lightdm-gtk-greeter.desktop... what should I do to not expect the file? roberto@orangepizero3:~$ update-alternatives --display lightdm-greeter update-alternatives: warning: alternative /usr/share/xgreeters/lightdm-gtk-greeter.desktop (part of link group lightdm-greeter) doesn't exist; removing from list of alternatives lightdm-greeter - auto mode link best version is /usr/local/share/xgreeters/pi-greeter.desktop link currently points to /usr/local/share/xgreeters/pi-greeter.desktop link lightdm-greeter is /usr/share/xgreeters/lightdm-greeter.desktop /usr/local/share/xgreeters/pi-greeter.desktop - priority 70 After some research of greeters, I see that the default greeter is compatible with wayland https://github.com/Xubuntu/lightdm-gtk-greeter I have been working as if lightdm requires X11 (which I need to avoid), and so I wanted to used pi-greeter Does anybody have lightdm+gtkgreeter in a pure wayland setup? No X11

Hello everyone, I'm having a couple of issues with my H96 Max (V11 "original", rk3318, 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC) while running the latest Armbian nightly build from an SD card (kernel 6.12.x). Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 1. USB 3.0 Port Hangs the System When I plug a usb stick (3.0) into the USB 3.0 port, the system freezes. My SSH session terminates, and the network connection drops, I do not connect hdmi output. The USB 2.0 port, however, works perfectly fine. Is this likely a hardware issue, or i need to reconfigure the USB 3.0 port from "host" to "peripheral" to prevent this from happening? 2. Unable to Boot from a USB Drive My goal is to boot from an SD card with the root filesystem on a USB drive. I've tried a few methods without consistent success: - Using '''armbian-install''': The process fails at the "format" step for /dev/sda1 and returns to the main terminal. - Using '''dd''' command and re-seed the sd card UUID randomly: This method is unreliable, with boot failures occurring roughly 4 out of 10 times. When it fails, the USB drive's LED stays lit, but the system doesn't boot. - Flashing directly to a new USB 2.0 drive: I flashed the same Armbian build to a new USB 2.0 drive, but the box would not boot from either USB port, only from the SD card or eMMC. Am I missing a critical step for creating a bootable USB drive for this specific H96 Max model? Or is this a known limitation that I'm unaware of? Thanks in advance for your help!

However, we're seeing a problem with kernel 6.12.x where the first time the computer is turned on, ArmBian doesn't always boot. Only after powering down and turning it back on does the Orange Pi Zero v1 start booting. This problem didn't occur previously on the same hardware, so perhaps updating U-Boot to version v2025.04 would solve the problem. We'd like to ask those who are also making changes to the Orange Pi Zero V1 to update U-Boot.

If I remember correctly, it is possible to mount such partition flashed to usb or sd within WSL (just ensure that proper support is installed into WSL) and make any changes. It is possible even to script changes to be run under windows, though I can't remember how exactly this is done. Probably AI can hint.

I have an old and weak mxq pro 4k TV box (fake amlogic s905w), rk3228a checked, sv6051p wifi. I recorded the desired version on the micro sd via the multiboot.img adapter and it worked but did not respond to the remote control, I checked the remote for robotics, recorded libre elec and booted from it without multiboot and it even worked on wi-fi and the remote reacted, I replaced the dtb file and booted from the multiube but it no longer worked I thought that dtb was capricious and decided to replace only part of the it_receiver code in dts format and converted it and recorded it via dd on Linux, but this time the eumultool worked but the remote control did not respond again. I do not know why it stopped turning on on android 7.1.2, but I know for sure that after downloading minecraft or similar games, it will boot up and you can go to recovery, I tried two firmware for TV box in the format.zip but there was a message map location failed like I recorded the desired version on the micro sd via the multiboot.img adapter and it worked but did not respond to the remote control, I checked the remote for robotics, recorded libre elec and booted from it without multiboot and it even worked on wi-fi and the remote reacted, I replaced the dtb file and booted from the multiube but it no longer worked I thought that dtb was capricious and decided to replace only part of the it_receiver code in dts format and converted it and recorded it via dd on Linux, but this time the eumultool worked but the remote control did not respond again.

Hello, I have a massive problem as the time/date on my Pine64 keep changing randomly to the year 2113. In my project, I use several Pine64s and the problem now occurs on many of these Pine64s. Unfortunately I need the correct time for my project. I am using the following system: ARMBIAN 5.32.170911 nightly Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 4.13.0-sun50iw1 (with additional overlays = uart3 and console = ttyS3) Could this be due to the error described in the post and is the bug fixed in kernel version 4.14? Could I install this kernel version 4.14 via armbian-config (next-kernel)? Thanks a lot for help.

It works like a charm. Thanks so much!

you can install and boot from the sd card, also h616 uses nand flash, which can't write on it (or maybe it uses emmc)

So I had a guy from Fiverr take a look at it and this is what he said he found. I'm not sure if this rings and bells or not? But he is still digging. Regarding the quectel card, it's extremely weird. Both images have the exact same dtbs, overlays and drivers, but it works on both Joshuas and the official image but not on armbian. One thing I have found different between those is the gpio pin states. Armbian image has different gpio states from the other. But idk if that is a side effect or the cause.

Thanks for the quick answer. I have ordered a USB serial adapter and should receive it next week. I'll update.

I used the Debian 12 uefi desktop image with @djzort‘s instructions and it works great! I’m convinced this is the best setup for the pbpro, at least for me.

I have one X96Q pro box with H313 chipset and 2 GB of ram i had found some topics that for X96Q but their board show as v 1.3 i had tried all miniarch rom for x96 h313 at https://github.com/warpme/miniarch or armbian rom for h313 at https://forum.armbian.com/topic/43682-armbian-for-h313-x96-q-lpddr3-tv-box/ i had flash rom into sdcard with win32diskimager insert sdcard into box, hold av reset button and plug the power cable but all rom i had tried make my hdmi screen splash 1 time and the screen show no signal, the blue led of the box go off and nothing happen here my box board image : If every one known how to do with my board please reply the solution for me , thanks, sorry for my bad english skill

Providing logs with armbianmonitor -u helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

Regarding the VPU under jammy I have compiled a guide here https://github.com/defencedog/orangepi4A/tree/main/GPU_VPU Gstreamer players like clapper do use HW acceleration for H264 & H265 (however 10bit HEVC) are not working ad per my tests Version 1.0 of `libcedarc` is used. In v2.0 HEVC 10bit support is added. If anyone can provide git links & some help to compile I am ready to spend time on it In whole internet I only got x1 git for this https://gitlab.com/tina5.0_aiot/media/cedarc-release/libcedarc_v2.0
