I'm using Bluetouch in my iPhone as a bluetooth mouse (rarely when needed) for my OrangePi/Armbian/Kodi setup. All fine with that… except… with my iPhone paired to the OrangePi, it also connects all its audio to the OrangePi, *all the time* when in range, unless I completely disable bluetooth from the iPhone. According to the only instructions I've found, I've tried setting [General] Enable= in `/etc/bluetooth/main.conf`, and restarting the bluetooth service, but the only effect this has is that there's no audible output. The phone still connects its audio to the box, just with no audible output. How to completely disable Armbian from advertising itself as a bluetooth audio device, while being able to connect bluetooth peripherals?

Using a 256G emmc and the server image v6.12 my Odroid N2+ doesn't boot. Here is the log. The Homeassistant image works. Would be nice to understand why it doesn't boot. <00><00><00>G12B:BL:6e7c85:2a3b91;FEAT:E0F83180:402000;POC:F;RCY:0;EMMC:0;READ:0;0. bl2_stage_init 0x01 bl2_stage_init 0x81 hw id: 0x0000 - pwm id 0x01 bl2_stage_init 0xc1 bl2_stage_init 0x02 L0:00000000 L1:00000703 L2:0000c067 L3:14000020 B2:00402000 B1:e0f83180 TE: 196470 BL2 Built : 06:17:13, Jun 28 2019. g12b gf0505d7-dirty - qi.duan@droid13 Board ID = 5 Set A53 clk to 24M Set A73 clk to 24M Set clk81 to 24M A53 clk: 1200 MHz A73 clk: 1200 MHz CLK81: 166.6M smccc: 000347a9 eMMC boot @ 0 sw8 s DDR driver_vesion: LPDDR4_PHY_V_0_1_14 build time: Jun 28 2019 06:17:09 board id: 5 Load FIP HDR from eMMC, src: 0x00010200, des: 0xfffd0000, size: 0x00004000, part: 0 fw parse done Load ddrfw from eMMC, src: 0x00060200, des: 0xfffd0000, size: 0x0000c000, part: 0 Load ddrfw from eMMC, src: 0x00038200, des: 0xfffd0000, size: 0x00004000, part: 0 PIEI prepare done fastboot data load 00000000 emmc switch 1 ok 00000000 emmc switch 2 ok fastboot data verify verify result: 255 Cfg max: 2, cur: 1.

Hi! I'm new here too. I tested my webcam using webcammictest.io, and it worked fine, so the hardware seems okay. If you're encountering the "Inappropriate ioctl for device" error with v4l2-ctl, it might be due to driver compatibility issues or kernel differences. You could try using a different Armbian version, like Jammy, to see if that resolves the problem

Hi there, I'm seeing the same while trying to update some U-Boot bootscripts on my Helios64 (rockchip aarch64). Seems there needs to be more space between $kernel_load_addr_r and $ramdisk_addr_r. How much is a bit puzzling, as for other archs it's usually enough to count the kernel's image size (and some alignment). If i come across something interesting, I will share here too. Groetjes,

Seems Ubuntu from Canonical uses a customized kernel where CPU usage precision is improved. But Debian and Armbian use previous CPU usage precision settings?

I could solve the instability problems and I am using the 2.5Gbit port now without having errors and with full speed! changing the swich Flow Control On for 2.5Gbit devices ethtool -K <LAN-device> sg off sudo ip link set dev <LAN device> mtu 9000 using the actual dtb file posted above cp rk3399-kobol-helios64.dtb /boot/dtb/rockchip/ update-initramfs -u nano /etc/default/cpufrequtils ENABLE=true MIN_SPEED=600000 MAX_SPEED=1800000 GOVERNOR=ondemand nano /etc/rc.local for cpufreqpolicy in 0 4 ; do echo 1 > policy${cpufreqpolicy}/ondemand/io_is_busy echo 25 > policy${cpufreqpolicy}/ondemand/up_threshold echo 10 > policy${cpufreqpolicy}/ondemand/sampling_down_factor echo $(cat policy${cpufreqpolicy}/cpuinfo_transition_latency) > policy${cpufreqpolicy}/ondemand/sampling_rate done for i in $(awk -F":" "/ahci/ {print \$1}" < /proc/interrupts | sed 's/\ //g'); do echo 10 > /proc/irq/$i/smp_affinity done for i in $(awk -F":" "/xhci/ {print \$1}" < /proc/interrupts | sed 's/\ //g'); do echo 20 > /proc/irq/$i/smp_affinity done exit 0 nano /usr/local/bin/make_nas_processes_faster.sh #!/bin/sh -e for i in `pgrep "iperf3|smb"` ; do ionice -c1 -p $i ; taskset -c -p 4 $i; done # >/dev/null 2>&1 running as a service

Is there a way to copy the system from sda1 [M2-Sata SSD (2280)] to emmc (uboot) from the running system without losing the configuration? If it's possible, how can I do this including configuring the changes? What is the maximum size for the M2-Sata SSD (2280)? https://wiki.kobol.io/helios64/m2/

Hello, With kernel 6.6.56-current-rockchip64 the audio works correctly: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [RK809 ]: simple-card - Analog RK809 Analog RK809 1 [HDMI ]: simple-card - HDMI HDMI With kernel 6.12.30-current-rockchip64 the RK809 card is not available: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [HDMI ]: simple-card - HDMI HDMI How can this be solved ? Thank you so much !

openssh-server should be installed by default on all images/configurations.

thanks again, I'll do this soon.

By exiting the docker container and installing qemu-user-static in the host system, I was able to run the build again and progress. Appreciate the tip thank you! One final issue that I notice is when I am attempting to use customize-image.sh to install openssh-server package. As you can see by these logs it reaches "Setting up openssh-server (1:9.2p1-2+deb12u6) ..." but then script hangs and never progresses.

The command used in customize-image.sh to install is simply: apt-get install -y open-ssh Since I used the -y flag I don't think any user input is needed, so not sure yet what I am missing. Any tips are greatly appreciate as I troubleshoot. Other than this issue with openssh-server, the build worked out ok! I will write some guides and share for other Qubes OS users.

chatgpt advised to type ":UTC" or ":Europe/Berlin" and it helped.

Same answer as above. Without serial logs impossible to debug. It leaves to mention that this board is not officially supported but configuration has been provided by a community effort. Board status is unknown to the core Armbian team.

No. Yes. This is the most stable and well-developed kernel.

kernel_ramfs is located at /dev/block/mmcblk2p6 Have extracted with dd and copying through wifi adb. Interesting usb debugging is enabled in tvbox, but when connecting usb v3 cable to tvbox, host machine does not see the 'adb device', adb connection over wifi is ok. Has anybody used USB adb on this device?

No, that won’t work. This is a Armbian Linux forum. If you need android support try xda forums.

I also encountered the same situation. I wrote the Ubuntu Orange Pi 5 Max image from the Orange Pi homepage (http://www.orangepi.org/) and it ran normally, but when I wrote the Armbian Ubuntu version from https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5-max/, the indicator light was only green and nothing appeared on the screen. I also tried writing the Armbian version for the regular Orange Pi 5 or Orange Pi 5 Pro and it could run (although wifi and usb were lost, but I could boot to the desktop), but when I wrote the Armbian version for the Orange Pi 5 Max, it did not run. Is it a bootloader problem?

I found that sun50i-h618-transpeed-8k618-t.dtb is the working one, can I replace boot.img-dtb in the android img with it?

No one answers...... 🤐 I got tired of waiting and set up autologin according to these instructions. Everything is working.😁 You can use it.💯

@jwillb00 there’s a drop down menu on the first page. You’ll see “main” as the first option. Select “v20250306” that’s my more recent and stable release. you can clone my build using git command. git clone https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build.git -branch v20250306 kernel config is located here. Edit the configuration manually. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/config/kernel/linux-sunxi64-edge.config To compile a new image use the commands cd build ./compile.sh choose "Do not change kernel configuration" choose "Show CSC/WIP/EOS/TVB" choose "I understand and agree" choose "tanix-tx6s-axp313" choose "edge" rest is up to you. Your image should be in output/images directory.

I've checked the storage media and it seems to be a NAND - https://files.pine64.org/doc/datasheet/pine64/FORESEE_eMMC_NCEMBSF9-xxG SPEC A0 20150730.pdf Not sure if this is of any use in figuring out why it cannot see the boot partitions.

@Nick AI have been using the TX6s build and it's been working great, but I was curious about the structure of your repository. I saw no files for the TX6s, but I see images for it in the releases? I'm new to all this, but I need to change some kernel config options so I was wondering how I could apply those to your repository.

Well, i have jumped ship on gone to every os i can think of that will run on RPI5 and now IM BACK!!!! Hello again, Jayson Here - And i have decided that Arbian 25 Noble Gnome may be the smallest-strongest multimedia build i can find...so its what i will choose to finish my PI 5 with. I am still wrestling with the sony IMX477 as to produce video. I have just ordered a usb mount for uvc-video rather than csi/cam0-cam1 b/c i cant get it working. at all and need to advance... to the touchscreen which is still just HDMI w/o touch. on the new download of Armbian. its downloading now. I will put pics of the device and more tomorrow. Jay T.
