Hi, wake-on-lan should be working now due to https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8235. Groetjes,

fixed

I'm not too sure what is the difference between v25.5.1 vs that on the boards page? https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-3/ from those links 'current' seemed to be linked to: as of current 28 May 2025 Armbian_community_25.8.0-trunk.8_Orangepizero3_bookworm_current_6.12.23_minimal.img.xz @TRay It is a good idea to try U-Boot v2025.04 I've got a python script which can patch u-boot binary into an Armbian .img or practically any other image file (though i've only tested this in *unofficial* armbian builds) https://github.com/ag88/1.5GB_Fix_for_Armbian_on_OrangePiZero3/tree/main/tools https://github.com/ag88/1.5GB_Fix_for_Armbian_on_OrangePiZero3 i created it back then while researching solutions for the '1.5GB' problem back then. Do you have the 'bin' file for u-boot that you could share say in a zip file attached here? you can extract that 'bin' file using the 'backup' procedure documented here: https://github.com/ag88/1.5GB_Fix_for_Armbian_on_OrangePiZero3?tab=readme-ov-file#how-to-use sudo dd if=/dev/sdX of=u-boot-backup.bin bs=1024 skip=8 count=1024 But that the appropriate way would be to build the full armbian image from source including u-boot etc. Nevertheless, having the 'patched' u-boot binary would enable most here to test that by patching a distributed image file e.g. from the boards page, or as Igor has provided.

Yes I stalkered Sipeed on X social (ex Twitter), and finally they compiled a new Debian Bookworm with support for lot of USB -> converter so I'm using to control a 3D Printer. But I'll not buy this product anymore.

After cleaning up and expanding Whisper-Hindi to 3,000 hours, we now have explicit timestamp prediction, faster I/O, and fine-tuned models across all sizes, bringing us even closer to fully reliable, production-ready Hindi ASR. View the full article

Looks like most of the mainline issues will be resolved with the release of Kernel 6.16 rc1 which will hopefully be in the nest couple of weeks. I'm running Fedora rawhide with 6.15 rc7 and the only thing I'm missing is analog sound which collabora says should be in 6.16 rc1. I have dual monitors, sound over hdmi so the last biggy for me is analog sound. The reason I'm running Fedora is theses guys are pretty guick to release the latest mainline kernel.

I use the ArmBian version which is updated very often (see below) so if U-Boot v2025.04 for OZPI v3 appears in the current updates it will be possible to check and other users who have OZPI v3 with 1,1.5, 2, or 4 Gb RAM check it

Thanks Igor for your work!

Thank you for that information, @Mechano. Did you ever get this board to work, with armbian or another image?

looks like a really cool machine. unfortunately, no maintainer in armbian and I am not aware if any of the regular developpers has that SBC. It seems to be based on the H618 which it shares with the Orange Pi Zero3 which is reported working with the latest Armbian release. Did this board ever work with an older release? Is this a regression? I see somebody else mentioning they have issues with the board booting, , apparently due to issues with thermal management. And your crash apparently started in pstate.

I am also available for testing new images on Orange Pi Zero 3, while I am new to this SBC I am happy to learn. Today I have installed "Armbian_community_25.8.0-trunk.38_Orangepizero3_bookworm_current_6.12.23_minimal.img" to use for NTP server purposes. I have successfully enabled uart5 by using "overlays=uart5" and seeing GPS data with "gpsmon /dev/ttyS1". However, I also want to use PPS signal coming from my Waveshare L76K module, and the pps device does not seem to be created. I have used the following dts, from this forum: /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-h616"; fragment@0 { target = <&pio>; __overlay__ { pps_pins: pps_pins { pins = "PC7"; function = "gpio_in"; }; }; }; fragment@1 { target-path = "/"; __overlay__ { pps@0 { compatible = "pps-gpio"; pinctrl-names = "default"; /* pinctrl-0 = <&pps_pins>; */ gpios = <&pio 2 7 0>; /* PC7 */ status = "okay"; }; }; }; }; Then I did "armbian-add-overlay sun50i-h616-pps-gpio.dts" followed by a reboot. Then I do not see any PPS device. Am I missing something else?

Nice. To help other users of the forum, it would be good if you shared what fixed the issue.

To be honest, I'm confused. You reference three different systems and it is unclear to me which one it is that FTBFS for you. Let's take a step back. Do you have the latest git tree of armbian/build? Do you have any local changes? What is the exact command you for compile.sh? I will try to reproduce the problem here.

Sparking between the wires on the poles produces high-frequency pulses of high power and transmits them through the wires to consumers of electricity. Household consumers such as a TV, vacuum cleaner, refrigerator do not have a built-in high-frequency protection filter and very often fail. As for the orange, it is not protected at all. My orange was just lying on the table and was connected by an Ethernet cable to the router. Both were not power up. Lightning struck a nearby building. The Ethernet cable caught an electromagnetic pulse. The orange burned down completely and the router has only 1 port damaged. You can draw your own conclusions.

Either ignore expired cert or wait until we fixed it.

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

I have connected matrix led display on max7219 by spi to orangepi. Module max7219 have power supply from 5v. On some during a 220v power failure (sparking between wires suspended on poles), there were some disruptions in the 5v power supply. This damaged the max7219 modules and possible spi port on orange pi. After this failure, the /boot/armbianEnv.txt file contained a fragment of the logrotate file, the kernel on the orange pi is unable to initialize the spi port despite no wires being connected. After connecting a working orange pi to the max7219 module, the problem with spi initialization also appears. Dmesg does not show anything related to spi, there is no /dev/spi0.0 file. Is it possible that damage to the spi port blocks its initialization by the kernel? There was also a problem with playing music using mpd, after a while the music stops playing and the kernel reports that the sound card is not available. Re-running mpc play resumes playing music, but not for long.

This mode needs 80MHz pixel clock which is not in the table for clk-rk3568.c driver. You need a patch similar to https://lkml.org/lkml/2025/3/18/1337 to add this rate. FWIW 1280x800@63.59Hz isn't a very common mode

@jwillb00In this patch. Try changing 16 to 0. In both locations. Maybe I uploaded the image with these changes. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/patch/u-boot/u-boot-h616/153-add-tanix_tx6s_axp313_defconfig.patch +&mdio1 { + rmii_phy: ethernet-phy@0 { + compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"; + reg = <0>; + }; +}; +

hey @Nick A, seems like when I build the image on my own the ethernet doesn't work? I tested with and without the modified kernel config and it happens either way. When I use the image you publish in the releases page, it works fine. Am i doing something wrong?

I would like to use my device as a VPN client, i.e. connect to a remote OpenVPN server. How can I enable the Tun/Tap module on my board?

Also need someone to test this: https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/incoming/igorpecovnik/orangepizero3/archive/
