Hi @sicxnull, @Nick A thank you very much for your support. Probably last night I was very confused when I wrote my post. Of course the v5.1 updated will be nice to have but looking better I can say to you and to @ventara that the armbian image suggested from Nick to Trauma (https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/download/20250306/Armbian-unofficial_25.05.0-trunk_X98h_bookworm_edge_6.12.11_xfce_desktop.img.xz) works fine on X96Q vs 5.1 only things the led in front remain always red and that why I was thinking it doesn't boot. Ethernet port works but wifi doesn't work. Never mind ethernet is enough. On the other side when I compare the two release (sicxnull and Nick) I didn't realize that I copy two times the same image on two different sd (I was really too tired) so don't consider the indication that I give you apart the wifi chip. That is right!

Oh great. Then I'll steal borrow your dts and replace the one currently in the framework later

6.12.y

on which kernel did you test?

Here is the opi3lts DTS I use. Eth, WIFI and BT work as they should. If someone feels like running a diff and making the adjustment. sun50i-h6-orangepi-3-lts.dts

Hey! i've been browsing and reading this thread for the past couple of days but i cant seem to find any version3 images. if i try to boot from sdcard, most of the times the led stays red, or turns blue but doesnt give any picture. Can i get some help with this?

On my Orange Pi 3 LTS I don't use ethernet, only wifi and it works OK... maybe that's why I didn't notice the problem... but here is some information about ethernet on Pi 3 LTS https://forum.armbian.com/topic/19846-orange-pi3-lts/page/11/#comment-226536

Specifically the file you want to look at is aml_autoscript What happens on a normal amlogic TV box is when the hidden reset button is pressed during boot, the boot loader looks for this file and runs it. This file then changes the stored uboot environment such that subsequent boots follow a new boot flow to boot first from sd or USB and fall back to android. If you follow the logic you can find the actual boot commands in the other files that get called.

Then If you look in the /boot folder, There are the scripts the Armbian system uses to get uboot to boot on amlogic. Generally Armbian uses extlinux for booting using a chain loaded uboot binary.

If you are trying to run an Armbian build, first check out: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first And

Hello, I'm new to embedded linux installation, so please bear with me. So I purchased an android tv box labeled h96max S905L3 from TEMU. Specifications (if the label is trustworthy): RAM: 2GB, ROM:16GB, running android 14.0. On the pcb it says: s905_zx02_v01. It features an ethernet port, 2 USB, HDMI, AV port (looks like a headphone jack) and no hidden reset button or sd card slot. I was trying to install any kind of linux to it using a bootable usb, I just need a simple shell capable of running an http server. I have tried using the remote control to trigger boot to linux, but nothing works. I have then opened the thing, and connected uart to a RP2040 and wrote a simple script as a uart bridge. I now have access to u-boot shell, interupted setup. So far I used chatgpt to guide me, but couldn't get it to boot properly. It told me how to boot manually the image from the usb, but it failed every time. It told me to set these env vars, and over time it showed me different addresses. It said the issues were related to overlapping of the addresses, or using address range that was reserved. It also said the dtb which I used, the meson-gxl-s905x-p212.dtb won't work, since the device always threw an error bad_magic, even though I checked fdt header, and the magic was correct. setenv kernel_addr_r 0x20000000 setenv ramdisk_addr_r 0x24000000 setenv fdt_addr_r 0x21000000 I would then load the files fatload usb 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} linux-android.img fatload usb 0:1 ${ramdisk_addr_r} uInitrd fatload usb 0:1 ${fdt_addr_r} vendor-expanded.dtb Notice: I used different images, firstly the Image file, and the meson-gxl-s905x-p212.dtb. After failed boots, chatgpt told me to expand, i.e. add padding to the dtb (first with the meson...dtb, and after that with the vendor.dtb). It didn't work, so it told me to generate an android like image using mkbootimg \ --kernel Image \ --dtb vendor-expanded.dtb \ --cmdline "console=ttyAML0,115200 console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootwait rootdelay=10 rw" \ --base 0x0 \ --pagesize 2048 \ --kernel_offset 0x1080000 \ --dtb_offset 0x1000000 \ -o linux-android.img and boot using the extracted vendor.dtb (pulled from android) and using bootm ${kernel_addr_r} instead of booti ${kernel_addr_r} ${ramdisk_addr_r} ${fdt_addr_r} The bootargs I used are setenv bootargs "root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=ext4 rw rootwait console=ttyAML0,115200n8 console=tty0" Please, any help would be appreciated as I already spent over 6 hours with this little cheap bastard that wouldn't boot anything but that chinese android. I will post output of anything, just let me know if something is needed. I'm sorry for the messiness of this post, but I tried a lot of things that chatgpt told me, explained the errors, and supplied commands for the u-boot shell.

Thanks @Werner this is fixed, it works. In my case auto selected mirror is fi.mirror.armbian.de .

First testing on similar device (Odroid N2) didn't reveal any troubles. Need to locate VIM3 and try to recreate.

Just updated many armbian files shown as available for update. After the update sudo apt update shows the error message: E: The repository 'http://apt.armbian.com bookworm Release' is no longer signed. N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default. N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details. How can I fix this or was signing simply forgotten? Thank you!
