So I kept trying to build inside VirtualBox and on my 3rd try I was able to get an image built (along with the patch that you shared). I tried that on the Class 10 card and got some "Bad Page Map in process xxx" errors, although it did boot and I was able to set it up. On running any command I keep getting these errors and most commands fail. Then I got an A2 card and tried the same image on that, with the same results. Towards the end it tries to turn HDMI on but fails because of said errors. I am attaching the terminal output from the A2 card run here: https://pastebin.com/7H70dUNN What do you think the errors are related to? The RAM? I want to mention that since I have the original Android image on the NAND, I can confirm that it runs okay. Thanks,' Shivam

@Werner You suggested using armbian-install. You meant to update boot loader in current installation? If I'll do this will it break currently working booting from nvme?

In that case I would strongly recommend purchasing an A1 rated SD card before trying anything else. If you are getting MMC related errors these are definitely related to the SD card rather than RAM. Once you have done this then we can look into DRAM config if need be. Trying to enable the display post build is kinda tricky. If it was just a matter of adding the HDMI display nodes, then yes that is normally possible however the display driver needs a slight patch in order to work. Now if you had kernel headers installed you could try to build the driver however another current problem means that custom loaded modules seem to not load/unload properly. Seeming as you are using the pre-built Cubieboard images, it already has the display nodes in place but not the recent patches to sun4i-drm. Looking again at the build log you provided earlier it looks like something is blocking the download of bookworm distro which is why it is failing. what happens if you trying ping apt.armbian.com? Given that this issue happens with bookworm, I wonder if it will also happen if trying build with Ubuntu Noble instead. I am currently working on formally including the display patches on my latest development branch so please bear with me. Best of luck Ryzer

i need help too.... please

Hello, @sicxnull, Thanks for all your work on the H96X box. I'm trying to install Armbian on my x96q V5.1, your image (Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96q-v5-1_bookworm_current_6.6.44_mate_desktop.img.xz) works great apart from I'd really like a server instead of desktop. I'm just wanting to use it for a VPN (Tailscale) exit node. Would it be hard to build a server version? I have no Linux experience.

I don't know what else to do... I usually research and learn on the go Search the 88xxau.c in your downloaded linux source. Try to find any link to documentation or github. Search 8812au in the respberry pi forum

Hi! On the Orange Pi 5 plus with the 6.1 image (KDE), with a 4k monitor @ 60FPS and 200% scaling, when opening discord on Chrome it gets incredibly laggy. I'm just curious, is this a limitation with the GPU itself, or is this related to something in the software stack? Thanks!

The actions in the dts for setting the GPIO pin are is based on the boot log line. marlin chip en dummy pull up -- need manually set GPIO You can check the whole discussion here and the reasoning https://chatgpt.com/share/68466d15-e5bc-8013-b200-17ae7f7c89fc However, After your last answer, Chatgpt suggests this is not really the issue, but a delayed initialisation would help. When the bt fails to initialise, try the following: sudo hciattach /dev/ttyS0 any 115200 flow sudo hciconfig hci0 up If this works, you can put this in a service to run at every boot. You can try yourself to continue the above conversation with chatgpt and see if you find the final solution. Then you can post it here.

I have decompiled the dtb file but am unable to incorporate the patch. How do i incorporate the patch or change it? In terms for a newbie please! I should say it is for debian 12 Cinnamon 6.12.

@Igor no worries about the delay, I'm just adding a feedback that symptoms are observed in the orangepi zero 3 miminal images as well, I've not tried other images hence can't comment about it. I'd likely try to reproduce the error and post my solution in this thread as well as in the orange pi zero 3 thread, possibly in the tutorials section of the forum as well i found the solution via some google searches then, and I'd try to reproduce that.

Just FYI why images are delayed. GitHub, which we rely our build infrastructure on, is having many troubles and builds does not start due to out of (their) resources (probably). 30 out 30 tries, I am getting Error: Error 504: We couldn't respond to your request in time. Sorry about that. Please try resubmitting your request and contact us if the problem persists. Perhaps this is a limitation of free tier, dunno.

So I understand that no one will help me because I am not a programmer.

At this point anything like thoughts, clues and things you heard about would be helpful because I don't find any solutions online too

4 of 5 times works well then failed. bt_boot_fail_05.txt Could you explaint it to me what you suggest to do? As I see you tried to set logic level on PH1 pin on CPU. In accordance with schematic this pin is connected to debug UART (RX) signal and doesn't affect on wireless chip. So I don't understand what you try to do. One more thing is BT and WiFi are in one chip, WiFi works well every time. As I understand the issue doesn't affect the chip itself otherwise WiFi wouldn't work either.

You can try on actual machine by editing device tree file. (/boot/dtb/rockchip/name.dtb probably rock5b something) https://chatgpt.com/share/684bbac2-2728-8005-bb50-a2751316ac2b If similar changes work - you need to reboot to apply changes - then report here.

@Igor apparently I run into a similar/same issue while using minimal / IOT images for Orange Pi Zero 3 25.8.0 Build Date: May 28, 2025 just downloaded yesterday 12 Jun 25 https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-3/ do update the links if the images are updated as well with the gpg keys files

This is 88XXAU in the config. Yes, this driver allows you to see the device as a network device, the adapter gets a new interface name wlx<macaddress>, but it cannot connect to the network and does not receive a list of available networks.

Those builds are made by automation, once per week if nothing else goes wrong.

Armbian Development Highlights: June 2–9, 2025 This week’s Armbian updates focused on kernel improvements, bootloader modernization, and several core enhancements to the build infrastructure. Key work spanned platforms like Rockchip, Sunxi, and Odroid, emphasizing kernel stability and broader compatibility across boards. Kernel Upgrades Several boards received kernel updates: Rockchip 32-bit edge kernel bumped to 6.15 in PR #8262 by paolosabatino. SpacemiT platforms updated to 6.6.93 in PR #8274 by pyavitz. Odroid XU4 kernel upgraded to 6.6.93 via PR #8277 by belegdol. Patches also landed to adapt Wi-Fi drivers to 6.15-era changes, including fixes for xradio and uwe5622 on Sunxi, contributed by The-going: sunxi: xradio – Switch from del_timer_sync to timer_delete_sync uwe5622: Fix timer API changes for 6.15 Bootloader and U-Boot Work Improvements were made to bootloader support: Tinkerboard 2 now uses U-Boot v2025.04 (PR #8268 by hyx0329). RK3328 boards gained setexpr support in U-Boot v2022.04/07 (PR #8260 by djurny). Build System Changes Several build system enhancements landed this cycle: PR #8276 by Ayush1325 prevented unintentional conversion of built-in kernel drivers to modules. A new helper function chroot_sdcard_custom_with_apt_logic was introduced in PR #8245 by rpardini, streamlining SD card build logic. PR #8279 by igorpecovnik removed obsolete Trixie package references. Networking Improvements PR #8259 and commit cdf71df by djurny expanded DHCP configuration in netplan to automatically include interfaces matching lan* and wan*, simplifying initial setup across devices. Miscellaneous Signing key backward compatibility was preserved in PR #8282 and commit aa5526a by igorpecovnik. Commit 0f43036 reworked prepare-host.sh after review.

I forgot to write that I use meson-sm1-x96-air-gbit.dtb. Kernel 6.12.31-current-meson64. Please provide a .dtb file with working SPDIF. It may be a different kernel version. If I had any .dtb file with working SPDIF I could modify my file using the "fdtput" command.
