You need the "normal" non 5-1 version: https://github.com/sicXnull/armbian-build/releases/download/v24.8.0-trunk.425/Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96q_bookworm_current_6.6.44_mate_desktop.img.xz

Good evening everyone. First of all, thank you for this forum and for any help you can provide. I have an X96Q 2G/16G case with an Allwinner H313 chipset and I'm trying to install Armbian. I first tested with the MiniArch-20231112-6.6.2-board-h313.x96_q-SD-Image.img image: it boots correctly. However, when I try with the https://github.com/sicXnull/armbian-build/releases/download/v24.8.0-trunk.425/Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96q-v5-1_bookworm_current_6.6.44_mate_desktop.img.xz the box doesn't boot and the LED remains red. I'm not an expert in this area; I simply want to install Armbian on this box. If anyone can help me, that would be great. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

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

Hi : My problem is this. After manually updating my TV BOX , the serial number X88PROB-H313-D4-V1.0 is printed on the motherboard. The WiFi number AW859A has stopped working. I've tried everything, including reinstalling the firmware using PhoenixCard or PhoenixSuite. I downloaded and updated the T95-H616-A27.img and T95-H616-A29.img files, as well as the X88-PRO-S-H616 file. The installation was successful, but the device only displays the HDMI boot screen. Is there a solution? I would like to restore my device to Android 10 or 12 firmware, if possible. Is there a way to restart it if it's corrupted?

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

I used a regular ch340, most likely a fake. Keep in mind that the baud rate is 1500000 in both u-boot and Linux.

Use the one that works / safe to ignore. I think one device is normal and the other for WiFi direct.

As highlighted by an issue on BTT's GitHub, why are two wireless interfaces present (wlan0 and wlan1)? What should we use ? armbian-config presents them both.

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, can you please share which USB to TTL adapter to use for uart logs? I have an RK3399 board but it failed to show uart logs with CP2102 and CH340 adapters. Thank you!

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

Hy all, For some time now I have a Rock 5b + with 16Gig memory. The problem I have is playback video' s in youtube. Video's are not even watcheble in the lowest resolution. Other 4k video' s play fine. I tried several bechmark video' s from online sources. I looked around to see if others experiance the same problem but cannot find anny clu in this matter. I use Armbian ver. 25.5.1 Do others have the same issue? Is there a soltion for this problem? Also I find this board not the fastest. It's a bit faster than mi RPI5 with 4Gig mem. The PI5 plays HD on youtube. I also have a OrangePi 5 ultra with 16 gig memory on stock Orangepi ubuntu witch is a dream to work with. This board is fast, has a small formfactor and became my daily PC for everything. This board also play's youtube video' s in HD. A direct comparacing with the Rock 5b+ is not possible because no Armbian version will boot on this OrangePi board sadly. I tested on wired and WiFi network with no vissible difference. Anny advise is welcome! Ernst-Jan

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.

Updating via `apt update && apt upgrade` causes Armbian to fail to boot on the single-board computer. I'm attaching the UART logs in the file `failed_log.txt`.

To reproduce the issue (~13.11.2025-16.11.2025), simply download and flash the current `Minimal/IOT for Armbian Linux v6.12 [Debian] Debian 12 (Bookworm)` images (`https://www.armbian.com/nanopc-t4/`) and run `apt update & upgrade` on a running system, then reboot. After this, the system, regardless of whether the `SD card` or `EMMC` is used, will enter an infinite boot loop (`out` and file `failed_out.txt`).

@Henrik Larsson Did you end up changing anything or is this with the default configuration? Are you still using kernel 6.12? Have you tried build with a 6.16 edge based image yet?

Any update here? Same broken image is still linked from back in may and no update to these images since then?

Made some progress. after installing Armbian_25.8.1_Odroidxu4_noble_current_6.6.102 to eMMC ran armbian-upgrade Installed xubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop-minimal package reboot now i'm getting the greeter screen. after login, I entered xfce desktop. functions ok could only install firefox via snap. installed firefox via snap ran firefox to view a video on youtube. audio is not working. install pulseaudio reboot system audio still not working when viewing a youtube video any suggestions?

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...

@blood This fixed the issue with the configng repo, but I am still getting the warning for the main repo: ``` Warning: http://apt.armbian.com/dists/trixie/InRelease: Policy will reject signature within a year, see --audit for details Audit: http://apt.armbian.com/dists/trixie/InRelease: Sub-process /usr/bin/sqv returned an error code (1), error message is: Signing key on DF00FAF1C577104B50BF1D0093D6889F9F0E78D5 is not bound: No binding signature at time 2025-11-16T01:37:58Z because: Policy rejected non-revocation signature (PositiveCertification) requiring second pre-image resistance because: SHA1 is not considered secure since 2026-02-01T00:00:00Z Missing key 8CFA83D13EB2181EEF5843E41EB30FAF236099FE, which is needed to verify signature. ```

I've just tried https://dl.armbian.com/radxa-cubie-a5e/Trixie_edge_minimal Ethernet-Port besides USB-C blinks if connected, but looks like no IP requested. The other keeps dark if connected, pressing Button for long does nothing. I don't understand where other images to find, A5E not in: https://armbian.atomonetworks.com/dl/ What image ist know working, what is SSH Login Thank You
