Booting armbian manually from u-boot shell over UART

Sun, 11 Jan 2026 11:58:03 +0000

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.

problems booting amlogic tvbox from SD

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 17:27:51 +0000

Hi i have done a few boxes with armbian installed, some boxes wifi do not work but that is to be expected.But i got a amlogic box now that is giving me intrm error,It seems i can boot armbian and it loads up but after the loading it just get stuck at intrims.This has somethnig to do with the boot process from sd card.When i boot it form usb stick it works fine but the same setup from sd card gives me that error.

I suspect the second part to boot the os is controlled by the box,I need to have first boot all the time

What can i do to modify the sd card.

Realvnc problem in Armbian. Black screen

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 09:32:52 +0000

Hello. I have a problem that's been driving me crazy, and I think I'm not the only one. I'm using Armbian version v25.05.0 for Aml.S905x running Armbian Linux 6.12.19-ophub Debian stable (bookworm), and I managed to install RealVNC Connect, for which I have a license. The problem I'm having, and I can't find a solution, is that by default the GDM3 desktop launcher uses Wayland, and when I connect externally to the server, I only get a black screen with a message saying "the desktop cannot be displayed at this time." I'm using GNOME, and I've tried different desktop environments, but they never work, even after selecting them from the gear icon. It just acts like it's going to launch and then returns to the user's home page. It doesn't matter if I use Xorg; no desktop environment ever loads. Only GNOME and GNOME Classic work. If I modify the /etc/gdm3/custom.conf file by deselecting Waylan, I get a black screen and can't even log in. It's a vicious cycle that prevents me from using this server that I like. I've also tried installing other screen launchers like LightDM, but they don't work on my system; the startup process either freezes or I get a black screen. I'm quite desperate. The device where Armbian is installed is an Amlogic TV Box, which is otherwise working perfectly, but this server issue is really frustrating me. Could anyone offer a solution so I can use this server that was working before? Thank you very much.

TX3 Mini Won't Boot from SD Card or eMMC After Resizing Partitions Armbian

Sat, 31 Aug 2024 09:08:26 +0000

Hi, I'm new to the Armbian community, but I have used Linux before. Recently, I followed this tutorial: https://i12bretro.github.io/tutorials/0316.html to flash Armbian 20.10 Bullseye on what I suspect is a fake TX3 Mini. It has a red motherboard probably not a p-281 board, it could be a q201_N device as twrp said before installing Armbian. Anyways, Armbian detects 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage in it.

It most likely has either an S905X or S912 CPU since I used "u-boot-s905x-s912" during the process.

After flashing the SD card with Armbian, I was able to boot successfully.

I then installed Armbian using the terminal with "install.sh." After completing the installation, I decided to check the partitions using GParted. In the eMMC (internal storage), I noticed around 900 MB of unallocated space. I decided to add this to my root partition.

To do that, I first moved the boot partition upwards and placed the unallocated space next to the root partition. However, when I tried to extend my root partition into the unallocated space, GParted froze. I canceled the process and reopened GParted, but this time it said it was unable to read the eMMC. I thought it might be a bug, so I rebooted, but after the reboot, the screen remained blank—nothing happened. When I insert the SD card, the screen flickers blank for 2 seconds and then shows "no signal" for 3 seconds.

Did I just kill the device, or is there any way to fix this? Please help!

Minix NE0 U1 flash

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 14:39:30 +0000

Trying to figure out how to initiate toothpick mode in order to flash a minimal iot Armbian image.

I found a recovery1 button (accessed from a pinhole) but holding this while powering on, or holding the 'power' button while powering on, doesn't seem to get me anywhere.

It seems that whenever I insert my 32G sdcard (maybe not supported?), something happens where the stock android does not boot after the initial MINIX splash screen, but just sits on a black screen (regardless of how I may have powered it on). Initially I thought it was doing something, so I let it run overnight.. I restarted it in the am, but when I removed the SDCard, it just booted back into the original stock androidn.

Latest Armbian for S805 TV

Tue, 23 May 2023 23:50:29 +0000

Hi,

so after many hours of trial and error I have managed to get the latest Armbian with Kernel 6.1.27 running on my old mxq s805 tv box.

Albeit only thing that is not working is hdmi output and wifi.

So for anyone else trying to accomplish something similar, my steps were:

https://github.com/hzyitc/armbian-onecloud

Downloaded the latest release of this build for the onecloud device as it also runs on the s805 amlogic chipset (props to the developer for still updating)

Burn the image to your sd card.

Then after the image is burned, create a textfile on the root of the sd card and name it „uEnv.txt“

Paste the following and adjust the .dtb file to your corresponding device. My case is the mxq

LINUX=/uImage
INITRD=/uInitrd
#VMODE=1080P50HZ
VMODE=1080P
FDT=/dtb/meson8b-mxq.dtb
APPEND=root=LABEL=armbi_root rootfstype=ext4 rootflags=data=writeback rw console=ttyAML0,115200n8 console=tty0 no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0

Save the file, insert the sd card in your device connect it to LAN and ssh in to the device (check the ip in your router)

So, ssh root@your.ip.adress.x

Password is 1234 by default.

And that is that. I currently have it running for 4hrs with no outage. PiHole and PiVPN both installed and running.

I hope this could help anyone out trying on a similar device. Credit goes to the devs and contributors. I just put the pieces together and made it work as my own builds wouldnt run so I resorted to this much better solution.

p.s: If anyone is interested for my reasoning of updating from a old build, it was because i was using 5.14 rc2 kernel that was bugging with wireguard.

And as mentioned no hdmi output and no wifi. Wifi should be fixable hdmi rather not to my understanding.

Take care and have fun

vorke Z6 (s912)

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 20:10:49 +0000

i am trying to install armbian on a vorke z6 plus s912 amlogic box.

As there is no S912 dtb, i tried using /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb

with this iamge: Armbian_26.02.0_amlogic_s912-t95z-plus_trixie_6.18.15_server_2026.03.01.img.gz

renamed u-boot-s905x-s912.bin to u-boot.ext

After inserting and pressing the reset button, before applying power, i get into the recovery menu

What dtb file or image can i use to get armbian running?

BCM43430 WiFi (AP6212) - HT Avail timeout clkctl 0x50 on BCM43430/2 stepping - Armbian 5.9 kernel

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 13:05:29 +0000

Hello everyone,

I have two identical-looking "arm-64" Amlogic TV boxes (S805X-based, meson-gxl-s805x-p241.dtb), both running the same Armbian image (kernel 5.9.0-arm-64 from balbes150 build).

Both boxes have BCM43430 WiFi+BT combo (AP6212 module) on SDIO (mmc1).

Problem:
- STB 1: WiFi works perfectly (BCM43430/1 stepping)
- STB 2: WiFi fails to initialize (BCM43430/2 stepping) — always ends with "HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50"

Key dmesg from STB 1 (working):
[ 7.719726] brcmfmac: F1 signature read @0x18000000=0x1541a9a6
[ 7.736079] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio for chip BCM43430/1
[ 7.976301] brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware: BCM43430/1 wl0: Mar 30 2021 01:12:21 version 7.45.98.118 (7d96287 CY) FWID 01-32059766
→ wlan0 appears and connects normally

Key dmesg from STB 2 (not working):
[ 7.564287] brcmfmac: F1 signature read @0x18000000=0x1542a9a6
[ 7.568240] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio for chip BCM43430/2

[ 9.652082] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50

→ No wlan0 interface created

What I already tried on STB 2:
1. Copied entire /lib/firmware/brcm folder from STB 1 → same timeout
2. Symlinked brcmfmac43430a0-sdio.bin / .txt → same timeout
3. Symlinked Raspberry Pi 3 variant (brcmfmac43430-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-b.txt) → same
4. Created symlink for board-specific file: ln -sf brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt brcmfmac43430-sdio.amlogic,p241.txt → still fails
5. Added various NVRAM tweaks (boardflags3=0x48200100, LPO=1, sd_drivestrength=6, etc.) → no change
6. Tried sdio_overclock=0 (and 25000000) → module says "unknown parameter 'sdio_overclock' ignored" (not supported in this kernel 5.9 build)

Current /lib/firmware/brcm contents (relevant files):
- brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin
- brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt
- brcmfmac43430a0-sdio.bin
- brcmfmac43430a0-sdio.txt
- brcmfmac43430-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-b.txt
- brcmfmac43430-sdio.amlogic,p241.txt (now exists)

modinfo brcmfmac shows no sdio_overclock or drive_strength parameter available.

Questions:
- Has anyone seen BCM43430/2 stepping specifically fail like this while /1 works on the same image?
- Is there a known good NVRAM .txt for BCM43430/2 on Amlogic boxes?
- Any other module parameters or DTB tweaks that could slow down SDIO clock or force LPO mode?
- Or is this most likely a hardware difference (LPO crystal issue on the module/board)?

Any help or pointers greatly appreciated — really want to avoid buying USB dongles if possible.

Thanks!

Install on amlogic tv box without working emmc

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 13:08:49 +0000

Hello everyone, I have three Amlogic S905x TV boxes with a dead EMMC, and one with a desoldered EMMC (since I thought without it, they would boot from the microSD card). Is there a way to force them to boot into Armbian? Holding the power button doesn't work, and desoldering the EMMC didn't help either.

I was able to boot Armbian using UART. A workaround is to use Ardruino, which sends commands to boot Armbian after a while, but that's a workaround, and I'd like a more elegant solution.

1) Download the *.img.gz image for the amlogic_s905x

2) Write the image to the microSD card using Rufus.

3) Connect the UART. Steps 2-6 in the brick instructions.

4) Insert the microSD card with Armbian into the console.

5) Turn on the console, close the testpoint, and at a certain point, the UART boot log will stop at gxl_p212_v1#.

6) Execute the following commands:

mmc dev 1
env default -a -f;save
setenv preboot 'if fatload mmc 0 1020000 aml_autoscript; then autoscr 1020000; fi; if fatload usb 0 1020000 aml_autoscript; then autoscr 1020000; fi; if fatload mmc 1 1020000 emmc_autoscript; then autoscr 1020000; fi;'
save
reboot

Is there a simpler way to boot from a microSD card to default settings? Maybe I need to cleverly write a bootloader to it?

Armbian image for Amlogic S805X P241 with 5.15 kernel (minimal, working boot)

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 04:01:26 +0000

Hi all,
I’m working with an Amlogic S805X (P241) board and I’d like to run Armbian on it, but I need a kernel 5.15 LTS build that boots reliably (especially from USB/SD).

I see Armbian community builds with kernel 6.x for Amlogic TV boxes (e.g., Armbian_community_26.x), but these do not boot successfully on my P241.

I previously successfully booted Armbian with kernel 5.9, but I want an image based on the 5.15 LTS kernel if possible.

Is there an existing downloadable image for S805X/P241 with kernel 5.15?

If not, can you share build parameters (BOARD=, BRANCH=, kernel target) to compile a minimal Armbian image with 5.15 that uses meson-gxl-s805x-p241.dtb?

I also want to confirm the correct dtb file and boot configuration needed.

Kernel 6.x gives me reserved-memory / CMA errors on S805X P241 and didnt boot
Kernel 5.x booted ,
Is there any 5.15 LTS Armbian image, or how can I build one?

Thanks!

Concerns before trying to boot Armbian from SD card on GS King-X

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 12:34:25 +0000

Hello everyone,
I would like to test Armbian on my GS King-X (S-922X). I have prepared a SD Card by using Armbian Imager. Then I have followed the instructions here:

modified the "armbi_boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf" file, specified: "fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-meson-g12b-gsking-x.dtb";
copied "u-boot-s905x2-s922" as "u-boot.ext".

Now before trying to make the device boot from the SD Card, I would like to know:

If I do not install Armbian to the internal eMMC, will I be able to boot back to Android, by just removing the SD Card and powering off then back on the device?
Later, if I decide to install Armbian to a USB drive or an internal SATA Hard-Drive, will I be able to boot back to Android, or it will modify the boot loader in a way that it will not be possible?

Thank you in advance

Super console cube X3 seems can't boot.

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 20:46:36 +0000

I'm been trying to install Armbian on this TV.BOX console.

I already test bookworm xfce image of Armbian as like the last XFCE image → Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.357_Aml-s9xx-box_noble_current_6.18.7_xfce_desktop

I als test minimal images ad they don't work.

The spces of console are :

Processor (CPU)Amlogic S905X3 Quad-core ARM Cortex-A55, up to 1.91GHz

Graphics (GPU)Mali-G31 MP2

RAM4GB DDR3

Storage (ROM)32GB eMMC

Video OutputHDMI, supports up to 8K@24fps (Android system) and 1080p (EmuELEC system)

Connectivity2.4G/5G Dual-band Wi-Fi, 10/1000M Ethernet LAN, Bluetooth 4.0

Ports1x USB 3.0, 4x USB 2.0, HDMI, Ethernet, DCIN (Power), TF card slot, AV output

I test to boot the stock images just after download them and the boot shows the HK1Series and then goes to internal android system (tvbox) so failed.

When I do the steps to put dtb file, edit extlinux.conf and rename properly u-bott to u-boot.ext (I search and test test many dtb files as like meson-sm1-hk1box-vontar-x3.dtb, meson-sm1-h96max-x3.dtb, sm1_s905x3_4g_1gbit.dtb, sm1_s905x3_4g.dtb as like others that I download on web when I search info about install armbian on s905x tv boxes).

I also try to see if I can edit a .dts file and then convert to .dtb qhen I did It doesn't work.

So none of steps above works.

But I find one image system that works called devmfc that has only a minimal image similar to a server image only with tty text.

I inspect the .image of this system, and I find that if I copy the boot.scr, boot.script and cfgload to the /boot partiton of the armbian systems and boot the Sper Console it goes to a pink screen and then after a minute just reboot or goes to hkseries system.

So I think if I can edit boot.scr, bootscript and cfgload maybe I can put the right data to force boot the real kernel of armbian. Maybe then armbian works.

I use Linux and try to open those files with text editor but doesn't work.

Anyone knows How I can edit this files ?

Any user can boot armbian on this console TvBox ?

Thanks.

Help installing ARMBIAN on BTV X P212

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 00:09:41 +0000

Hello everybody.
I'm new to this and I would like to install Linux on my BTV X p212 TV box.
I saw that there are several versions of systems but I couldn't find them for this specific one and I would like to know if you can help me? Please.
Ps: I searched here on the forum, google but I couldn't find it.

Help in installing Armbian On an andoid tv box with amologic chip

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 06:55:24 +0000

I recently got this tv box emulator thing but i now emulate games on my laptop for convineince. I decide to download armbian on the tv box so that i can set up pi-hole for network wide ad blocking.

Ive tried multiple times but i cant see to get it working.

Cpu: Amologic S905L

Ram:2 gig DDr3

ive been downloading this version https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian/releases/download/Armbian_jammy_arm64_server_2026.02/Armbian_26.02.0_amlogic_s905l_jammy_6.1.161_server_2026.02.02.img.gz

been using this dtb

meson-gxl-s905x-p212.dtb

been using this u bootfile named:

u-boot-s905x-s912

To reboot the system there is no button in the AV port and the box refuses to download any apk or app for terminal emulator, Developer tools are not available,threfore i prefer to do it through the update method.

the file structure

Ive been following these instructions from gemini

https://gemini.google.com/share/1e335432197f

Please ask me if you need more info

I also asked in reddit btw

U-boot defective after emmc install s905x3

Sat, 24 Jan 2026 11:15:00 +0000

Hello. I have easily managed to get armbian up and running of a usb stick, in fact everything worked perfect (hdmi, wifi, gbit ethernet, etc.). The tv box is h96-air-gbit (as the dtb is named), amlogic s905x3 soc, 32gb mmc, 4gb RAM, gigabit ethernet, 2xusb 2.0, 1xusb 3.0, sd card, hdmi, av port (reset button inside), spdif. The thing is, I wanted to benefit from the 32gb internal mmc storage, since I was running armbian from a 8gb usb stick (had a lot of those hanging around, and didn't want to buy a bigger one). I did notice the image I used had not armbian-install script, nor nand-sata-install. I did a manual install (snapshot copy) of my current system with the help of Claude.ai

1. step - create an setup another partition on the emmc (currently there were 2x 4M partitions - the bootloader I presume)

sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk1

sudo mkfs.ext4 -L ARMBIAN_ROOT /dev/mmcblk1p1

Note: Doing this seems enough reasonable to me (well, to my limited knowledge), no overwriting should have happened

2. step - snapshot copy the OS

sudo mkdir -p /mnt/emmc sudo mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/emmc sudo rsync -aAXv --exclude={"/dev/*","/proc/*","/sys/*","/tmp/*","/run/*","/mnt/*","/media/*","/lost+found"} / /mnt/emmc/

Note: This also seems alright, and the commands exited with no errors

3. step - update the extlinux.conf, the cmdline to point to the right UUID - the one from the emmc

sudo blkid /dev/mmcblk1p1

sudo nano /mnt/emmc/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

4. step - just confirm everything is set, and shutdown, disconnect power and reconnect

cat /mnt/emmc/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

sync

sudo umount /mnt/emmc

Note: Everything seemed fine and correct.

So after the whole process, I shut it down, removed the usb and booted. It didn't come online after a while, so I rebooted with hdmi connected (I did face some issues before, like unusally slow boot times in headless mode). It just never turned on. The logo was gone, so I figured something went quite wrong. Currently, the situation is the following: I reopened the board to connect uart for diagnostics. So The board without external storage (usb, sd card) doesn't boot, it does a certain sequence, but fails and just hangs (no reboot loop). If I have an external usb, the one which worked before (correct setup), it reboots in loop - it does try to boot from the usb, but fails. Chatgpt suggests that I probably overwrote some portions of the bootloader or firmware files on which armbian relied (some or most of the env vars are probably gone). Claude has a similar suggestion (FDT_BAD_MAGIC, get partition table from dts faild - the bootloader is messed up). I did try booting from usb and from sd - forcing multi boot (reset button), but that's definitely not the issue. The bootloader seems to be working up to a certain point - but booting from usb or sd produce the same error - last few lines of the log, right before the reboot (and it reboots indefinitely in loop):

Since, the aml_autoscript should definitely be working, the bootloader is the most probable issue.

So, what Claude suggests is to flash s905x3 compatible u-boot. I managed to get the board in usb burn mode by mask rom (toothpick reset method didn't work). Currently I have the board plugged to pc (usb male to male) and uart connected (improvised RP2040 zero uart bridge). Please provide me with instructions and what to do. I soft bricked the board by following plausible instructions from ai, I don't want to hard brick it (I really liked it:) Also, I keep the board connected, since I don't know if I could reintroduce mask rom mode if turned off.

Here is the complete log of one of the infinite reboots from the loop:

Armbian boots from SD Card only manually via U-Boot, autoboot fails I installed it to eMMC(Amlogic S805X / gxl_p241_v1)

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 18:06:55 +0000

Hello everyone,

I successfully installed Armbian to eMMC on an Amlogic S805X (gxl_p241 / p241 board).
The system boots correctly when I manually start it from U-Boot, but autoboot fails every time.

I believe my bootloader / U-Boot environment is not properly configured. During flashing, I only selected the DTB, and I am not sure how the bootloader variables should be set for eMMC boot.

if it didnt work ,how to manually install u-boot

I have a device from this brand. An ISP in Turkey distributes this device. It needs to be unlocked. I want to install Armbian on it. However, it doesn’t look like any device I’ve seen online. The motherboard is different from all the devices I checked. Is there anyone who can help me?

I can access the device via ADB. I can install APK files. The device has an S905X processor and 1 GB of RAM. It is running Android 9.

Need help with .dtb for Leelbox Q3 (Amlogic S912 tv-box)

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 20:33:51 +0000

Hello, I have some troubles with this TVBOX: it runs armbian and other distros correctly, using the

meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb

but sometimes wifi goes into kernel panic at boot, and when it does, the whole system becomes unstable (i.e. not rebooting, eth0 hangs...).

I have extracted the original .DTB from the only firmware that exists for this box, the ancient 6.0 Marshmellow Android (I guess it's a 3.x kernel...). I attach it to this message hoping someone more expert than me can help in making it work ina more stable manner.

I attach a picture of the board also, it reads "M8S". Box has 2GB ram and 16GB eMMC, brcmfmac wifi/bt and ZTE PHY chip.

How to boot from my Android TV Box?

Tue, 04 Apr 2023 23:21:14 +0000

Hi, I would like to know if its possible to boot from SD card in my model of Android TV BOX. It does not have a reset button but has an update app.

Its a Giga TV Box HD890 4K. It has an Amlogic CPU

I do all the process of installing Armbian in the SD card, Android starts an update and it says:

"Map file is too short".

I really dont know what I have to do to enable multi boot. Installation is aborted.

Im getting really upset for not being able to install Armbian.

Any help to this issue would be really welcome.

Sorry for my bad english

Panfrost power transition timeout errors

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 01:38:34 +0000

I have an x92 box with Amlogic Meson GXM (S912). The SOC has a Mali-T820 GPU, and the box has 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of eMMC. I'm running Armbian 25.11.2 noble on it. While using the Wayfire Wayland GUI, there is a lot of kernel output like this, constantly repeating:

panfrost d00c0000.gpu: shader power transition timeout
panfrost d00c0000.gpu: tiler power transition timeout
panfrost d00c0000.gpu: l2 power transition timeout

The GUI works, and hardware 3D acceleration works. But it would be nice to get this spam out of the logs, and I also wonder if there is really some problem. Like, maybe the kernel doesn't know how to change GPU voltages. Maybe it is related to this at boot, maybe due to an issue with the device tree.

kernel: panfrost d00c0000.gpu: error -ENODEV: _opp_set_regulators: no regulator (mali) found

The only other sign of something being possibly wrong is that SOC temperature goes surprisingly high when playing hardware accelerated video. That ought to be energy efficient. I'm running Mopidy and Firefox at 53°C and just playing a video can get it to 70°C.

It is possible to make these errors go away via:

echo on | sudo tee /sys/bus/platform/devices/d00c0000.gpu/power/control

I don't know if changing that from auto to on will increase power consumption. Alternatively I tried to add a dummy regulator to the device tree and set mali-supply of the GPU to that regulator. Adding the dummy regulator only removes this single error at boot time:

panfrost d00c0000.gpu: error -ENODEV: _opp_set_regulators: no regulator (mali) found

The power domain picture of the S912 datasheet shows a VDD_EE (Everything Else) input to the chip from an external PMIC, and then 3 components in the GPU, each with individual switches to VDD_EE. The 3 components are: GP0+L2C_0, PP0+L2C_1 and PP1. I suppose they correspond to the 3 types of power timeout errors, though I'm not sure which is which. This seems to show that there is no possibility for voltage scaling for individual GPU parts or even the whole GPU, without actually changing VDD_EE and everything else it powers. So, probably all the GPU driver needs to know is how to flip those three switches.

T95 max plus sdcard not

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 14:31:10 +0000

I've spent the last couple of months playing around (low-end testing just to see what the software and I are capable of) with Debian and docker: RSS, Nextcloud, navidrome, immich, nothing earth-shattering. I was doing this in a VM so I could wipe and restart in case of failure/learning curve issues, which was great. Everybody's got to have a hobby, right? After much foibles, I had gotten the setup into something I liked and understood the pratfalls to expect in installation. Ready for primetime, I didn't want to leave this in the VM (I have constant paranoia about usage on my power-sucking desktop), but I have a T95 Max plus TV box sitting around doing nothing but Kodi and it's on all the time, so I started dreaming about how I could get a version of Linux on it and do all my docker homelab junk and kodi and maybe make a diy NAS out of the thing. Armbian to the rescue!

I grabbed the wrong image (I got the barebones CLI only version instead of something with a graphic interface that I figured would be easier to manage) and I was able to boot off the sdcard and was able to install docker and portainer and had a working web interface, so...great...for a first try. I then installed it to the emmc and managed to get xfce4 for a desktop interface so I can see what I'm doing. The CLI version didn't really match any of the tutorials I was reading (there are suggestions that I could change the desktop with arnbian-config, but that's either false or was published for an early version and weeded out in later version, iDK).

Anywho, after mixing and matching instruction from amlgoic s905x3 and s905 versions, I have a working armbian with an xfce4 interface with working sound, USB, wireless and Ethernet. I was warned that all of those peripherals may or may not work in this endeavour, but I am happy to say they all work after I did a bunch of updates and upgrades of the armbian. Docker is going and the containers are all going and after 2x installs, I have a working Kodi going, so I am delighted and amazed.

Now I have a couple of smallish problems. Honestly they are minor, but I have succeeded so far and I'm full of false bravado so I an hoping I can Gert some insight or suggestions:

First, when I write the armbian to the emmc, the sdcard stopped working, period. Armbian refuses to see it as a device and I can't boot off it using the toothpick reset method. I've also tried using the amlogic flash utility with a male-to-male usb cable and my PC won't see it either, which tells me the sdcard interface is bunged, either the kernel can't see it or does not have drivers. Either way, if I have future problems I have to trash the whole setup because I am incapable of reflashing the box. Plus, the box is only 32gb and I was hoping to use the sdcard as storage, but I guess not. I've also thought of adding a USB card reader and seeing if I can get the box to see an sdcard through that, but I don't have a lot of faith there if it's a driver issue.

Second, the xfce interface asks for my username and password every boot but my mouse and keyboard take a minute to kick in. It's annoying to me to be waving a mouse around and thinking the system has locked up, when it's really just taking some time to activate the USB. What would be attractive to me is that I bypass the login screen,but I can't find the spot in arnbian-config that allows me to set an automatic login (again, the tutorial I'm reading may be old, but the options just aren't there in my version).

Sigh. So my questions to the geniuses and gurus out there: Has anyone had the same problem with the sdcard and/or were able to fix it and how, and How can I set an automatic login through terminal? The interface I have really doesn't have any real system settings like peripherals to show and won't let me adjust anything anyways.

Installing Armbian in emmc on MXQ Pro 4k S905W

Wed, 21 Jan 2026 22:07:25 +0000

Hi, is there any way to install Armbian on the built-in emmc memory on an mxq 4k pro with an s905w processor?

Should I follow these guides?

https://7ji.github.io/embedded/2022/11/08/alarm-install.html

https://7ji.github.io/embedded/2022/11/11/ept-with-ampart.html

Or is the built-in script in the system sufficient and will do everything without damaging anything?

I would be grateful for any tips

stuck how to activate recovery mode

Sat, 17 Jan 2026 13:38:37 +0000

Hi guys,

I try to install Armbian on my Amlogix G11pro (S509X2 based) TV Gamebox. It keeps booting only into my Emuelec SD card, if I plug it or with anyhting else it only boots into Android that is on eMMC.
I understood that I have to use the toothpic method to press the reset button to get into the recovery mode. I tried this but failed as my toothpic didnt reach anything I could click, it just went through. so I opened the box and found that behind the audio jack there is nothing (see attached pic). there is empty space with three connectors on the board, maybe that is the place where usually the micro switch for the reset button sits, but I am not sure. Before I try to short these (why three connectors?), I would be like to have a bit more info, in order not to brick my board. The FAQ says to use the toothpic method is only one method of several, what are the other ones ?

Need Help unbricking H96 Pro Plus

Sun, 02 Mar 2025 04:39:40 +0000

Hello, i think i bricked my H96 Pro Plus, like a year ago i installed Armbian on it.

Today i flashed a SD with a new version, reinstalled octoprint etc and finally tried to burn it to the emmc using "./install-aml.sh"

it seemed to work the process ended and i powered it off, removed the SD and tried to boot it up.

The only thing i see is the H96 Pro+ Logo and thats it.

I tried to boot from the SD Card again but it didn't work. I reflashed the SD card, changed the dtb file etc, just to make sure it would boot normally but nothing.

Im at that point where i think its bricked and i need to do some maskrom magic but i have no idea what to bridge

Any help would be much appreciated.

I was following This guide

Model: H96 Pro+
Motherboard: cz-s32-v2.2

Armbian on TX60 Pro - S905L, 16 GB / 256 GB, Armbian not working

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 21:38:29 +0000

I have bought a TX60 Pro with S905L CPU, 16 GB RAM and 256 GB eMMC. I tried to run Armbian on it: wrote several images on microSD, but since it does not have a microSD reader, I plug it in in a microSD reader. Unfortunately, it does not boot from it, not even when I start it with the Reset button pressed.

Is there any chance I can run Armbian on this box?

Support for TV Boxes with Amlogic S905X4

Sat, 15 Feb 2025 01:00:22 +0000

I’m using the DEVMFC version [https://github.com/devmfc/debian-on-amlogic]. Additionally, I took the `/boot` partition and copied all the files from the Devmfc_Ubuntu-Oracular_6.12.11-meson64_Minimal-25.01.24.img.xz image. Then, I downloaded the same version available from the Armbian community, but with a graphical interface: Armbian_community_25.5.0-trunk.4_Aml-s9xx-box_noble_current_6.12.12_xfce_desktop.img.xz.

I first flashed the Armbian image onto a USB drive. Then, in the `/boot` partition, I moved all existing root files into a `/backup` folder. After that, I copied the files from the DEVMFC version into the root of the `/boot` partition on the USB drive.

Surprisingly, when I tried to boot this setup on a TV Box similar to the Vontar X4, which has an S905X4 processor, it actually booted! It prompted me to create a root password, a regular user, set the language, and select a time zone. Then, it successfully launched into X for the graphical interface. However, it seems that USB ports were either disabled, or the system froze—the login screen was visible, and the keyboard cursor was blinking, but no input was possible.

I believe this is a solid starting point for getting Armbian images with a graphical interface running on S905X4 (Meson SC2), S905W2 (Meson S4), and S905Y4 (Meson S4) processors. Even without hardware-accelerated graphics, it should still be usable for basic applications like Notepad, text editors, spreadsheets, calculators, terminal access, and other simple tasks.

Has anyone else made progress running Armbian on the S905X4?

Help needed, WIFI not working: brcmfmac timeout error

Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:22:20 +0000

Hello everyone! I am running Armbian in a BTV11 box (Amlogic S905X3) alongside the "meson-sm1-sei610.dtb". My cabled ethernet connection is working fine but not WIFI. No networks are found. I have already tried alternatives like meson-sm1-sei610-ethfix.dtb, that leads to my ethernet to also stop working.

At first the Kernel was looking for `brcmfmac4330-sdio.seirobotics,sei610.bin` firmware, that doesnt exist in Armbian. So I made a symlink pointing to a generic `brcmfmac4330-sdio.bin`. Saw that similar fixes worked for other people.

This is what I see from logs: `sudo dmesg`:

Flashed on an S905 box without following instructions properly, box now won't boot, anyway to get it back?

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 11:08:29 +0000

I have an old MXQ Pro 4K (based on the original S905, not S905X or S905D, the original S905) which I tried to install armbian on, but I didn't know extra things were needed to set up uboot and dtb correctly, so I just flashed the image, put the SD card in my box, ran `reboot update` from Android to boot to the SD card, it showed the MXQ Pro logo, rebooted, went back to the MXQ Pro logo, and I can't get it to go past that. My box has a weird firmware issue (started immediately after a firmware restore so I don't think it's hardware damage) where the button in the headphone jack just... doesn't work, even when holding it, it still tries to boot to the eMMC, and now I have no way of getting back into Android, and I can't boot from the SD card due to the button not working, so, is there any hope for my box here? Or have I effectively hard bricked it?

I don't have a USB-A to USB-A cable for USB burning tool, and I will not be purchasing one, this was a spare box I've had laying around for eons and I don't think it's worth spending any money on -- I could probably get a much better box for the same money.

Help with Armbian on Mecool KM1 Deluxe

Sun, 28 Dec 2025 16:17:27 +0000

Hi, I'm new to this forum but I've been researching this topic for quite some time. I have a Mecool KM1 Deluxe with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, and an Amlogic S905X3 chip. I wanted to install Armbian to use it as a Linux device, but I've tried several versions and it hasn't worked.
Someone mentioned on this forum that installing CoreELEC would prevent Armbian from booting. I installed emuelec and it worked perfectly, but I haven't been able to run Armbian. Could this be the reason? Thanks.

Armbian on Amlogic TV Boxes – User Experience with Tanix

Fri, 26 Dec 2025 06:14:00 +0000

I’ve been testing Armbian on an Amlogic-based TV box, and wanted to share a short user experience. The device originally runs Android, but thanks to the Amlogic S9xx platform, it can boot Armbian from an SD card without touching the internal firmware.

In my case, the system booted reliably and was usable for basic tasks like SSH access, light services, and general Linux testing. Ethernet and USB worked out of the box, while Wi-Fi and power management still required some manual tweaks, which seems common for community-supported TV boxes.

For reference, the hardware I used belongs to the category of Amlogic TV boxes that are widely available on the market. These devices are not officially supported by Armbian, but they can still be interesting low-cost platforms for learning, testing, or small home projects.

I’m curious if others here have experience with Armbian on similar Amlogic TV boxes, and which SoCs or configurations worked best for you.

Booting Armbian without EMMC

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 15:56:31 +0000

Hi all, I have this Amlogic S905x2 (ddr3l) android tv box which I'm trying to boot Armbian on.

Firstly, I was having issue with the default bootloader always booting into android, no matter if I used the sd card or usb. So then I lifted the emmc chip, in hope that it will then choose to boot from the sd card.

However, I failed to notice that BL2 is stored in the emmc, and as you guessed, I need BL2 to boot into linux.

Now I've read that you can use USB burning tool to send and start BL2 from RAM. However, I've no idea what to do next and what file am I even supposed to send via the USB Burning tool.

I would be very thankful for any assistance.

A95X F1 (S905W) - System hangs/bricks after a few hours (v6.12 & v6.18)

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 12:35:14 +0000

Device: A95X F1 TV Box SoC: Amlogic S905W OS: Armbian Linux Server (v6.12 and v6.18) & Desktop versions. Installation: To NAND/eMMC.

The Issue: I am deploying about 10 units. The installation to NAND goes smoothly, and the system boots correctly. However, after running perfectly for a few hours, the devices crash:

Video output goes to a black screen.

Network is dead (No SSH, No PING).

Power cycling the device does not recover the system; it remains in this "bricked" state.

Recovery Method: Once the device crashes, I cannot simply reinstall Armbian. I am forced to:

Flash the stock Android firmware using the USB Burning Tool.

Reinstall Armbian from scratch.

Troubleshooting done:

Tested on multiple units (10 different boxes).

Tested over a period of one month with various incremental updates.

Tested both Server and Desktop images.

Result remains the same: corruption/crash after a few hours of uptime.

¿Some help?

Forgot user/password of S9xx tv box with armbian

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 00:17:27 +0000

I installed ambian in this tv box to run klipper for my 3d printer, but its been a years since I last used it and I totally forgot what was the user I created. I really didn't want to wipe the SD card because of my 3d printer's config files etc. Is there anything I can do to retrieve the user and password? Thanks.

ethernet problem on Vero4k+

Sat, 06 Dec 2025 07:47:55 +0000

Hi, I’ve installed Armbian to my Vero4k+ and all works fine except wired ethernet, the thing is it kind of works, but when I use different dtb files:

meson-gxl-s905d-vero4k-plus.dtb

wifi works, bluetooth works eth doesn’t, eth0 interface is UP but can’t get IP or set one,

meson-gxl-s905d-p230.dtb

wifi works, bluetooth doesn’t, eth generally works but when testing with iperf3 in server mode it’s great cca 930mbps 0 errors, but in client mode it depends of OS (ubuntu or debian) and kernel (5 or 6) used from 1-350mbps but with looooot of errors (cca. 67000 for 10 sec test) and if I limit link speed to 100mbps it doesn’t change much, also lot of errors, if I boot it to osmc it works fine (920mbps symetrical, also some errors on client side but fine).

Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot - fix this?

Thank you

Yoka TV kb2 pro installation instructions

Thu, 27 Nov 2025 20:29:38 +0000

The purpose in this guide is to make installation simple for those who wish to follow what I did. This is specifically for the Yoka TV KB2 Pro which uses the S912 chipset with 3GB RAM and 32 GB ROM. It was successful and works for setting up windows mapped drives just fine with Samba. (for example Z:\) I am using it off the SD card, I left Android 7.1 on the EMMC.

Notes: My intentions are to use it for a file server for use with USB 2.0 drives I have laying around that are old but still technically usable. The file transfer speed is only expected to be around 30% of the 1GBPS wired network. The bottleneck will definitely be the USB 2.0, but for what I am using it for, it should work just fine. Leaving it on 24/7 is only slightly more power than a Raspberry PI 4, so very low cost. The Wireless and Bluetooth do not work as is, I am not sure if you can get the drivers to make them work, I did not try. The 1GBPS network port works just fine. There is also no GPU/VPU acceleration, but for a file server who cares?

This was done with windows 11 and win32diskimager (note the original website is https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/) the other links are not what you are looking for and likely viruses and malware. Balena Etcher did not like the image file, win32diskimager had no issues once I extracted the .img file.

Head to https://www.armbian.com/amlogic-s9xx-tv-box/

Download the Armbian 26.2.0-trunk.22 Noble Gnome - I did not test any of the other images.

Burn it to an SD card - note (it says it will only work with up to 32GB micro SD cards. My 64GB amazon micro SD card worked just fine after upgrading my Yoka TV KB2 PRO to android 7.1 earlier, go figure.) I would suggest for this get a name brand SD card that is 32GB or less (the image uses around 2GB)

At the boot partition you have to rename the file u-boot-s905x-s912 to u-boot.ext

Now you have to edit the /extlinux/extlinux.conf file, look for the line that says FDT /dtb/meson-something (and change it to say FDT /dtb/meson-gxm-q200.dtb save the file

This lets it know what chipset/model you are using, this is for the S912 chip that is in your Yoka TV kb2 pro

You will need a usb keyboard and mouse, you also have to have it plugged into an HDMI cord that runs to a monitor or TV.

Now for booting it in multiboot mode - hold the reset button (between AV and HDMI ports, this button is inside and very small, google suggests a toothpick, I used a phone sim remover tool) for 10 seconds before and while powering it on, do not let go until you hit 10 seconds. Now every time you restart it, it defaults to SD card first. It may take 2 or 3 attempts, but it does work. To boot to Android, just remove the SD card.

First boot username and password is root and 1234, it will force you to change the password.

When it asks for bash or zsh, I chose bash because I am way more familiar with it.

When it asks for locale I used en_US.UTF-8

Time zone is based on wherever you are I used America/Chicago

It will also ask you to create a new user account (non-root) and a password)

This should get you up and running. The button to access everything is in the upper left corner, then you can access all your apps.

There are tutorials to upgrade it to android 7.1 - it does work and well documented. I upgraded mine to android 7.1 it worked just fine. Do Not try to upgrade to android 9 slimBOXtv, there are no successful attempts proven, just bricked devices. I did not see a single picture of anyone having it running. I did however see plenty of complaints for bricked devices. Good enough for me to steer clear.

I know this is rather long, but it will get you through the entire process, be safe, and hope you enjoy this how-to guide.

External HDD not detected after reimage

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 01:20:51 +0000

I've been using this setup for a few good weeks without issues, same powered hub and everything, however after accidentally unplugging the server and being unable to boot I decided to reimage the SD Card and now the box refuses to detect my external 1TB 2.5" HDD (powered hub).

Currently running latest server Debian (Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.22_Aml-s9xx-box_trixie_current_6.12.59) on X96 Mini (Amlogic S905W). I've tried to recreate my setup as close as possible to what I had before, however, now I cannot seem to be able to detect the HDD. The OS is installed on the SD Card.

lsblk looks like this:

NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS
mmcblk0 179:0 0 57.6G 0 disk
├─mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 512M 0 part /boot
└─mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 56.6G 0 part /var/log.hdd
/
mmcblk1 179:32 0 14.7G 0 disk
mmcblk1boot0 179:64 0 4M 1 disk
mmcblk1boot1 179:96 0 4M 1 disk
zram0 252:0 0 960.7M 0 disk [SWAP]
zram1 252:1 0 50M 0 disk /var/log
zram2 252:2 0 0B 0 disk

I can hear a clicking sound coming from the hdd, however it does not want to spin up. The HDD has around 8-9% free space left, and is formatted as EXFAT.
Connecting to a windows laptop the HDD spins up and gets detected instantly, even with no external power.

I'm completely at a loss regarding this, especially since I did my best recreating my working setup from a few hours ago.

Amlogic S905X -- Cannot install Armbian to internal eMMC

Wed, 24 Sep 2025 21:50:46 +0000

Hello everyone, I own this android box

and I followed this tutorial https://ragone.dev/post/install-linux-on-android-tv-box which is based on tutorials on armbian website, I tried to install Armbian 25.8 server with Debian.
Everything went fine until the step "5. Flash Armbian to the internal eMMC", despite me running the install-aml.sh script and getting a complete message in the end (see following images for script execution output),

when I reboot it just always starts from the sd (see the following screenshot showing that the mounted storage is 16 GB, but my box internal storage is 8 GB).

fdisk -l output to also show the internal mmc (in the screen /dev/mmcblk1)

If I remove the sd and then turn it on, it is just stuck in a loop, having the following errors:

Can you please help me in solving this problem?

I already tried looking on the web and found these two topics:

https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian/issues/3032

But they didn't help me.

Kind regards

Change Desktop environment to Mate

Cinnamon desktop environment is bugged for me, both my a95x r2 (amlogic s905w) and a95x f3 slim (amlogic s905x3) showing no display, blank screen like no input after loging in.

My suggestion for desktop ubuntu based varian, better change it to Mate desktop. The armbian desktop cinnamon varian based on ubuntu is now work for me after switching to mate desktop

The noname aic8800 ax900 bt5.4 usb WiFi module fails to start.

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 15:21:12 +0000

The Wi-Fi isn't working. I've been trying to get it working for a week now.
My hardware is a board from a TV set-top box based on the Amlogic S905X. I have six of them. Armbian OS v26.2, kernel 6.12.59-current-meson64

There are 6 adapters: noname aic8800 ax900 bt5.4 usb (Two types. Some are detected slightly differently by the system, but I want to figure out the first type first (on the left in the photo))

Photo of adapters: https://disk.yandex.ru/i/x37stQnEgEW52gра

As far as I can tell, the manufacturer's website: https://www.fenvi.com/index.php/drive.html?id=1&page=2

What I've tried:

https://github.com/nbfalcon/aic8800

https://github.com/shenmintao/aic8800d80

In the related thread https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/linux-hardware/18109581?cid=18151734 , they suggested installing: https://github.com/shenmintao/aic8800d80 , but that didn't help me.

What helped:
1) I tried following the instructions from https://linux.brostrend.com/
After that, the adapter worked once, but after a reboot, it didn't work again. I couldn't try again on a clean system.

2) On a clean system, the description from the first post helped once: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=437357
```
sudo dkms remove aic8800/1.0.8 –all
sudo dpkg –remove –force-all aic8800-dkms
sudo dpkg –remove –force-all aic8800-dkms
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dkms/aic8800
```
then installed the deb packages from https://github.com/radxa-pkg/aic8800/releases/tag/4.0%2Bgit20250410.b99ca8b6-3
```
sudo dpkg -i aic8800-firmware_4.0+git20250410.b99ca8b6-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i aic8800-usb-dkms_4.0+git20250410.b99ca8b6-3_all.deb
```
But after two reboots, for some reason, it crashed and I can't retry.

I also disable the storage on the Wi-Fi adapter: according to the instructions at https://linux.brostrend.com/advanced/usb_modeswitch/, that is,
```
sudo apt install usb-modeswitch

lsusb | grep -E '(0bda|368b|a69c):(8812|b812|c811|b832|c832|1a2b|88df|8d80|8d83|5721|5723)'
sudo /usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch -KQ -v a69c -p 5721
```

When running the lsusb command, the output is:
```
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 368b:8d81 AICSemi AIC 8800D80
```

I also tried this one because the description says it supports my adapter. They promise support for 368b:*

screen overscan

Thu, 27 Nov 2025 11:52:47 +0000

Hello there,
I have found another problem.
My setup:

Monitor Samsung syncmaster 2032mw

Windoze 10 reports 1280x768 60Hz

T95Z plus box
cpu amlogic meson(s912)arm cortex-a53
mali t820 gpu
dtb used:
amlogic/meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb
everything works including WIFI.

But I have overscan in the terminal and in de Cinnamon desktop
I am looking for info
https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Advanced-Configuration/
enable a custom screen resolution whitin x.org
for a resolution
when i open a terminal and run xrandr --listmonitors
the result is:
Monitors: 1
0: +HDMI 1920x1080/90+0+0 HDMI-1
then i type cvt 1628080 1768
but the next command allready result in
bash:cvt: command not found
Now i am stuck here
any tips?

how to unbrick h96 max m12 amalogic s928x

Sat, 15 Nov 2025 19:27:45 +0000

Is it possible to enable VENC (hardware encoder) support in kernel for S905X3

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 08:56:23 +0000

Hello,

I am using an X96 Air (S905X3) with Armbian (6.1.127-ophub) and I can see the hardware decoder working:

v4l2-ctl --list-devices

Amlogic Video Decoder (platform:meson-vdec):

    /dev/video0

However, the hardware encoder (VENC) does not appear:

ls /dev/video*

/dev/video0

ls /dev/amvenc*

ls: cannot access '/dev/amvenc*': No such file or directory

I want to use ffmpeg with hardware encoding (h264_v4l2m2m) for real-time RTMP streaming, but without the encoder device, it is not possible.

Could you please explain:

Does this kernel support VENC on S905X3 at all?

If not, what changes are required to enable hardware encoder in the kernel?

Is there any instructions or topics ? Any guidance or examples would be very helpful.

Thank you!

[Howto] Boot Armbian on S905x without a reset button using serial console if you have non-stock Android (tested on Scishion V88 Pro)

Fri, 11 Oct 2024 09:25:42 +0000

Hi,

posting a solution I have found how to boot Armbian on S905x device Scishion V88 Pro

My device:

* works, boots into an Android (has working u-boot)

* has no reset button

* contains thirdparty Android ROM that does not allow to enter aml burn mode

* cannot use Android update app

* does not respond to eMMC pin short (like in this post)

The only way to boot Armbian in this case is to solder serial console, interrupt u-boot and run recover from sd card command:

1. solder serial console

2. connect usb-serial adapter

3. insert Armbian prepared SD card for your amlogic CPU version

4. plug power and immediately press and hold Enter

5. you should see interrupted u-boot prompt (ex, gxl_p212_v1#)

6. type command run recovery_from_sdcard and hit Enter

7. the box should now boot in Armbian

Hello everybody,

I am new at linux have ubuntu running on n old windows laptop

now I found a new use for my old TVBOX i have lying around

I need some help logging in to my tv box

it is a T95ZPlus with a 912 soc

I am booting Armbian_community_25.11.0-trunk.519_Aml-s9xx-box_plucky_edge_6.18.0-rc6_xfce_desktop.img.xz

I copy u-boot-s905x2-s912 to u-boot.ext

My extlinux.conf looks like this

label Armbian_community
kernel /Image
initrd /uInitrd
fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb

append root=UUID=8ba6ae05-2bb2-4d2c-bba6-ce6cd91ed2cb rootflags=data=writeback console=ttyAML0,115200n8 console=tty0 rw no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 fsck.fix=yes fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0

The system runs

but after booting Armbian_community 25.11.0-trunk.519 plucky tty1

it gives me this prompt aml-s9xx-box loging

the tutorial tells Basic OS configuration is conducted at first boot. You are asked to set a root password, normal user

But my system asked for a login

so i am stuck

I hope someone have had this problem and can give a solution

Strong leap s1 - stuck

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 19:35:44 +0000

Hello, I have a problem after update on strong leap s1, it is stuck at the android tv loading screen, I found this method (1) Mecool KD3 Stick recovery reset | XDA Forums . Basically because this box doesn't have reset button, this method is can be used to get into recovery mode from where you can factory reset the box. Problem is that it's not working for me, is there anyone with same problem ? How did you solved it, please ? Thanks

Ugoous x3 PRO - Armbian Server - RAM issue.

Fri, 07 Nov 2025 14:59:51 +0000

Hi. I installed Armbian Server on my TV box (Ugoos X3 Pro 4/64 x905x3) to the NAND, and I have some trouble with the RAM size in the system. I use meson-sm1-ugoos-x3.dtb.

It turns out that only 1.8GB of 4GB RAM is available in the system.

On the Russian forum 4PDA, I found some information on how to fix this.

I repacked the DTB file and changed memory@ from 0x40000000 to 0xFF000000.

After that, 3.8GB RAM appeared in the system, but it turned out the system was unstable and randomly froze.

However, when I installed Armbian from an SD card, all 3.8GB RAM was available in the system, and the system worked fine and stable. I also used meson-sm1-ugoos-x3.dtb.

Is it possible to fix this and use all available RAM?

It is compatible with S905X5M?

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 11:07:45 +0000

Hi friends, could anyone tell me if Armbian is compatible with S905X5M? Thanks.
Regards.

I need the latest fully working image for Minix Neo U1. :)

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 13:50:06 +0000

Hello,

i tried "Armbian_community_25.11.0-trunk.208_Aml-s9xx-box_plucky_edge_6.16.7_xfce_desktop.img" booting from a usb stick.

First it looked, that it loads (the minix logo disappeared for some 100ms) which indicates that it loads, but then at the end the internal android booted.

For comparison "LibreELEC-AMLGX.aarch64-13.0-nightly-20250926-2f25ce3-box.img.gz" booted fine, even from the sdcard slot.

My final goal is, to run "tvheadend" as server with a "Hauppauge WinTV-soloHD" Usb STick and "Moonlight" client for "sunshine" on a 1280x1024@60hz nec display.

Can anybody pls tell me what i must download?

Thx.

[Help] Mecool BB2 Pro 2017 (S912, 3GB RAM) – Armbian doesn’t boot, device goes straight to Android

Fri, 26 Sep 2025 02:04:51 +0000

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to run Armbian on my old Mecool BB2 Pro TV box but I can’t get it to boot at all – the device always goes straight into Android.

Device specs:

Model: Mecool BB2 Pro
CPU: Amlogic S912 (octa-core Cortex-A53)
GPU: ARM Mali-T820MP3
RAM: 3GB DDR3
eMMC: 16GB
Connectivity: 2× USB, HDMI, AV, SPDIF, Ethernet Gigabit
Wi-Fi/Bluetooth: (chip unknown, maybe AP6255)

What I tried so far:

Burned several Armbian images with Etcher and DD in Linux.
Tried both SD card and USB stick.
Tested multiple DTBs: gxm_q200_3g, gxm_q201_3g, p212_3g, and some generic ones.
Formatted SD card partition as FAT16 as suggested in some guides.
Flashed u-boot.bin manually using dd with byte skipping (e.g. bs=1 skip=444 seek=444 conv=fsync).
CoreELEC partially boots, so the box can boot from external media.
With Armbian, however, it never even attempts to boot – it just goes straight into Android.

What I’m looking for:

Confirmation if Armbian can run on this device at all.
Which DTB (if any) is recommended for this specific model.
Any tips for debugging why Armbian is skipped but CoreELEC boots.
If anyone has managed to run Armbian on this box, I’d really appreciate your guidance.
Thanks in advance!

Is it possible to use /dev/ttyS0 to connect a zigbee coordinator?

Wed, 24 Sep 2025 14:31:41 +0000

Hello everyone! I have a TVBox Tanix V2 with Debian Trixie installed. I'd like to know if I can use /dev/ttyS0 to connect a zigbee coordinator?

He doesn't seem to be doing anything.

tvbox:/#lsof -n | grep /dev/ttyS0
lsof: no pwd entry for UID 1883

[    0.000899] printk: legacy console [tty0] enabled
[    0.257827] fe07a000.serial: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xfe07a000 (irq = 14, base_baud = 1500000) is a meson_uart

This is what is available from the console. Thanks in advance!

T95Z Plus 3GB/32GB - EMMC not found

Fri, 06 Sep 2024 10:24:54 +0000

Hello guys!

I have a T95Z Plus TV BOX with 3GB RAM, 32GB ROM, and an arm S912 CPU.

I can run Armbian just fine from the SD card, but when I try to install it on the eMMC, I get an error message saying something like, "You're already running from eMMC, or the eMMC was not found." And, obviously, I'm not running from eMMC, so it seems like the system just isn't detecting it.

I did some research, and it seems like there might be different eMMC manufacturers for the same T95Z Plus model. So, I might need to adjust the "Max frequency" parameter in the .DTB file for the T95Z Plus in order for Armbian to recognize the eMMC on my device.

Does that sound right?

If so, where should I start? Should I randomly change that parameter, or is there a table of parameters I can use to try different values until it works?

Thanks!

A95X R2 TV BOX, need help!

Mon, 15 Sep 2025 13:45:33 +0000

Hello there,

I followed from afar the advancement of the support on TV boxes for a while already, and I happened to stumble uppon a very cheap one on my local market.
The specs are the following :
-Amlogic S905W

-2GB of ram

-16GB of EMMC

Following are some pictures I took, that shows the bare PCB.
I hope that it will help answering questions I have.

After looking into many written tutorials on getting armbian to boot on such machine, I have tested all .dtb files that are available, as long as quadruple-checked the u-boot file that needed to be used with that specific chip.

I made sure to also press that buttom behind the jack-port before plugging in the board to hopefully boot onto the armbian install.
Here are a few things I have observed.
On all 3 available DTB files for the s905w, when using the u-boot-s905x-s912 file, none of them got me a picture after the first "splash screen".
I have watched the power consumption during the "boot" and have seen the power fluctuating between 1.6 and 2.4W, until it setteled to 1.4W and stopped fluctuating.
My very premature conclusion is that it somehow booted armbian but did not give me picture.
The display that I am using was also showing that something was powered on, trying to send a picture but was not giving correct signal.

Here's where my abilities end off. I do not know where to go next and what to try.

I have not seen obvious pads to try connecting to UART, and I need assistance with going forward with that specific board.
If anyone with experience can guide me, I'd appreciate it grately!

Thank you in advance and hope this message finds the right person

PS: The board boots fine to Android 7.1 otherwise, when not trying to boot to the SD card, so the machine is confirmed to be working!

GPT Invalid on USB created from iso

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 16:35:17 +0000

Hi, I am returning to Armbian after quite a few years. I was trying to follow guidance from nexbox-a95x-armbian and after a search found the debian & Ubunt images (https://www.armbian.com/uefi-arm64/) which I downloaded and wrote to a USB using Rufus (also balenaEtcher). I then tries to look at the FAT32 partition contents but the GPT was corrupt - tried many windows tools and Linux.I "repaired" the GPT using Linux tools but then the FAT32 filesystem was corrupt.

What am I doing wrong?

any help much appreciated

Install Armbinan on g11 pro

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 19:17:39 +0000

I have located a G11 pro and would appreciate guidance on how to install Armbian on it. I have attempted various solutions, but none have been successful. Additionally, I am unable to select from the recovery menu without a remote control.

New install ?

Wed, 27 Aug 2025 06:05:16 +0000

Hello

In the past I installed armbian into emmc (a95xf3-air) with a USB key. All was ok.

Now I would like to do a fresh install with the current release :

I burned the image, make the changes (extlinux …)

Boot with the "toothpick" method, ssh , the armbian release is the old one from the emmc, not the recent from the key.

How is it possible to boot with the recent one with ssh (no display no keyboard) ?

And after copy the new release to emmc.

Thanks for help

IR driver and tv remote

Tue, 26 Aug 2025 11:30:38 +0000

I need help installing armbian on my s905y5 processor

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 15:05:52 +0000

I happen to have got a Android tv box with a s905Y5 processor. I got this by a tv subscription from a company airtel in India.

I unsubscribed from the subscription and my tv box is completely useless. it asks money for watching youtube!!!.

I am extremely frustrated from this approach by this company so please help me save this from getting into e-waste.

From my research i found that it runs android 14 with a custom launcher which checks for the subscription and a locked down kernel/bootloader which checks for signatures before boot. I came to know these from the uart output.

I also found that it is basically a customised version of this box https://www.videostrong.com/products-show/vt9201-s905y5-aiot-solution

Community Support for Amlogic TV Boxes

Mon, 07 Nov 2022 13:11:30 +0000

Armbian now has a community supported build target for amlogic TV Boxes (aml-s9xx-box). You can now build your own builds directly with the Armbian build system.

This is now an opportunity for members of the community to move the support for amlogic TV boxes forward within the Armbian framework. If you are not familiar with the Armbian build system check out the Armbian developer documentation. If you have idea on how you would like to see things evolve/change please use this forum to share your thoughts and ideas and submit PRs for any code changes you would like to see.

I am currently testing this code against the four different amlogic based boxes I own, but would appreciate others testing as well. Once I have completed my testing, I will be updating the FAQ amlogic install instructions with this information.

Installing Updated Armbian to S805 (TVPad 4) to eMMC

Mon, 21 Jul 2025 23:17:42 +0000

Hello,

My pet labubu and I got the most recent onecloud/odroid c1 versions fully working on my horrid former Oriental TV box, the TVPad 4 (previously brought up by user @daniyo).

Everything works perfectly, except I want to finish my building by installing to eMMC.
None of the recent builds I can find come with an install.sh script, and I cannot see the eMMC (or NAND if it's NAND) in lsblk or any of the installers.
Does anyone have any clues or suggestions that can help the poor long suffering Labubu fix this issue? He just wants to watch IPTV and play little games

Can't boot Armbian Ubuntu 24.10 on Amlogic S905M Game Stick – only green LED, no HDMI output

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 20:25:30 +0000

Hello,

I'm trying to get Armbian (Ubuntu 24.10 XFCE Desktop) running on a retro game stick device with the following specs:

CPU: Amlogic S905M

RAM: 8 GB Samsung (2x K4B4G1646B)

Storage: Samsung 128 GB MicroSD (new, flashed via balenaEtcher)

Ports: 1x USB-A, 1x MicroSD slot, 1x MicroUSB power (possibly supports OTG), 1x HDMI male output

Original firmware: EmuELEC (working fine from factory SD card)

What I tried:

Flashed Armbian Ubuntu 24.10 (from debmfc GitHub) to the SD card

Tried box=s905_generic in the config file

Replaced dtb.img with several DTBs, including:

meson-gxbb-p200.dtb

meson-gxbb-p201.dtb

meson-gxbb-xtmqbox.dtb

Performed toothpick method to boot from SD card

Green LED turns on, but:

No HDMI output

CPU stays cold, no signs of booting

USB devices receive no power

No blinking, no UART logs (I don’t have serial access yet)

It feels like the CPU doesn’t even begin to initialize Linux – maybe it doesn't load the u-boot from the SD at all?

Any idea what else I can try?

Is there a minimal verified Armbian image known to boot on S905M-based TV sticks?

Do I need to trigger multiboot somehow?

Could this be a special bootloader variant?

Could I use the original EmuELEC SD and inject Armbian files into it?

Any help or known working image would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

TX3 Mini S905L2-B Firmware request

Mon, 05 Feb 2024 09:48:44 +0000

I purchased this fake clone TV box of the classic Tanix TX3 Mini 2GB Ram 16GB Rom for around 20 dollars (including shipping). I discovered that the soc is S905L2-B and before bricking the card with attempts to install it on eMMC I wanted to know if anyone of you found a firmware for this TV box compatible with the Amlogic USB Burning tool.

On the internet I only found two tx boxes that mount the S905L2 soc and they are the X7 5G and ipbs9505 and I couldn't find firmware to try to load them on my tv box, it's difficult on the Chinese forums for me to be able to find the downloads.

Any advice is welcome because with boot from the SD and the armbian-ddbr command I get an image but which I can only restore with the same command after booting from the SD so if the TV box is bricked and I can't boot this path won't work. I can use it to restore the Android factory image

TV Box S912 (X9T 4K): problem to install on emmc

Sun, 01 Oct 2023 10:42:09 +0000

Dear All,

First I would like to thanks all the contributors to armbian, What a great OS for our small SBC !

Context:
I run succesfully latest Armbian on a X9T 4K TV Box (amlogic s912) from SD Card 2GB (following instructions here

The Problem:
I would like to run armbian from emmc (16GB on this box) for better reliability and performance.

So, I run the install-aml.sh script, I had some error (no boot.ini ...), but the process seems to finish successfully

Next Reboot:

It's seems my boot partition is Not OK ... something missing ...

For reference

See bellow for reference the succesfull boot from the sdcard

If I boot from SDCard,

I can inspect the /boot and root partition on emmc, everything seems ok

On the emmc partition, the /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf is correctly modified:

GPU problem running Electron app X96 Linux

Mon, 14 Jul 2025 11:27:03 +0000

Hi all,

I managed to install Armbian on a X96 Linux TVBox with 4Gb RAM and 32Gb ROM. I've build the image following the Armbian Build Framework.

- v25.08 rolling for aml-s9xx-box running Armbian Linux 6.12.37-current-meson64

I reused the DTB that originally comes with the BOX and almost everything seems to work.

I tested the system using glmark2 with a score of 197. I suppose GPU is working.

Anyway I've some problems with Electron.

I have installed the "hello world" app. The application starts but I receive this error:

[4150:0714/130924.545719:ERROR:ui/gfx/linux/gbm_wrapper.cc:79] Failed to get fd for plane.: No such file or directory (2)
[4150:0714/130924.547711:ERROR:ui/gfx/linux/gbm_wrapper.cc:261] Failed to export buffer to dma_buf: No such file or directory (2)

Any suggestion?

Help with Armbian 5.67 image for S805 (ask @faxe2110)

Thu, 10 Jul 2025 10:39:28 +0000

Hi @faxe2110, or any other user, how are you?

I'm working on a project with an Amlogic S805-based TV box and found your forum posts about custom Armbian images, particularly older versions like 5.67 with Debian Stretch and kernel 3.10.108.

Unfortunately, the links you shared are no longer available, and I was wondering if you still have any of those files, or if you could give me some guidance on how to generate them.

I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide!

Write to eMMC

Fri, 25 Apr 2025 15:00:58 +0000

I have got my T95Z Plus with S912 booting 6.12.24-current-meson64 just fine now. Getting Jellyfin up and running with all my old DVDs and CDs. Seems very capable.

When do I push the OS into the eMMC? Is there a downside? Are there only so many times I can do this safely? If I chose to try the Debian builds - don't I just boot from a SD card and try it out? If I like that one better - then don't I just repeat the process and push that onto the eMMC?

I believe I have the Android Source - or more precisely - I have a rom called SuperCelleron that I installed almost 10 years ago... That still boots when I don't have an SD card in.

Also - visual inspection of this board proves I have an eMMC. I have another box that is identical outside. But on the inside it clearly has a NAND chip.

I am sure this is a silly question - but just thought I'd ask.

Thanks all.

Rolling Release and Kernel update concern

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 12:41:35 +0000

Sorry - this is probably an easy one for those that know. But I am trying hard to copy my work and progress and build another NAS out of another T95z Plus box for my brother. All is going well - but on the second box - months after building the first - I installed the latest download. So I have

Old box = Armbian Linux 6.12.32-current-meson64 - v25.5.1

New box = Armbian Linux 6.12.34-current-meson64 - v25.8 rolling - Support:for advanced users (rolling release)

Both show - Ubuntu stable (noble) - which I think I changed on first boot with Armbian-config.

Okay - so I don't think I am an advanced user so that warning has got me worried. So is there another version I should be using? I can't find the old file I downloaded so they would be identical. I have disabled unattended upgrades and things like that.

Or am I worrying about nothing.

Anyway - thanks as always. I still can't believe I have these cheap things pulled from my dust bin doing a real job again.

Wlan0 stopped showing up on Beelink GT1 Ultimate

Wed, 13 Dec 2023 21:33:37 +0000

Since some upgrades ago, the wlan0 stopped showing. Maybe it got jealous of the usb wifi dongle. They used to play along as wlan0 and wlan1 but that is no more.

TX5 Pro - S905X - Boots fine from SD but cannot get it to boot from eMMC

Fri, 23 May 2025 17:51:17 +0000

Hi folks,

Very new to this community, very new to flashing Android boxes.. But I wanted to give this a shot and make use of an old TX5 Pro that I had in a drawer.

Pleased to say, boots from the SD card fine, managed to get logged in and set up... all is working, WiFi, Bluetooth etc... However, I am just not able to get this to boot from the eMMC. I got to the point where I bricked it and had to re-flash Android onto it.. just to find myself in the same loop.

I'll provide as much info as I can here, but let me know if you need something more specific. I'm no expert here, so here goes.

Booting from the SD starts like this:

When booted, all is working totally fine. However, removing the SD results in the following, where it will stay for eternity util rebooting and inserting SD:

ChatGPT led me to screw this up entirely, despite getting this far based on it's instructions, so I'm turning to you for help. I really need to have this booting from the internal storage and not from an SD card.

No sound via spdif

Mon, 29 Jul 2024 17:34:13 +0000

Hello everyone!
My sound is only output via hdma, there is complete silence via spdif. And I need spdif specifically Any ideas on how to fix this?
My tv-box is H96 max x3, I boot up via the Ugoos x3 device tree.
Who has sound via spdif on a tv-box with Armbian? On which tv-box exactly?

Boot from USB

Thu, 05 Jun 2025 09:38:47 +0000

A have TVBOX on Amlogic S905l, but this tvbox don't have sdcard, is it possible to boot this board from armbian burned to USB, if yes, can someone share documentation ?

I mean to boot from USB before booting from EMMC.

I shorted the contacts on the board to disable emmc and I see this message in the TTL logs:

GXL:BL1:9ac50e:bb16dc;FEAT:ADFD318C:0;POC:3;RCY:0;EMMC:800;NAND:81;SD:800;USB:8;LOOP:1;EMMC:800;NAND:81;SD:800;USB:8;LOOP:2;EMMC:800;NAND:81;SD:800;USB:8;LOOP:3;EMMC:0;READ:0;0.0;CHK:0;

looks like chip is asking for USB, but I'm not sure that it can boot from

Maybe I need to create a specific bootable USB? I used an image https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian

Link: https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian/releases/download/Armbian_bookworm_save_2025.06/Armbian_25.08.0_amlogic_s905l-mg101_bookworm_6.12.31_server_2025.06.01.img.gz

Please help me

Is it possible to boot Armbian from SD card only?

Wed, 14 May 2025 06:41:49 +0000

Hello there!

I have a generic S805 TV box which, I assume, has a dead NAND memory chip. It doesn't boot and only outputs the following message over UART:

QA5:B;SVN:B72;POC:3FF;STS:0;BOOT:0;INIT:0;READ:82;BOOT:1;INIT:10;USB:3;SERIAL:4;STS:0;BOOT:0;INIT:0;READ:82;BOOT:1;INIT:10;USB:3;

I found firmware for a similar TV box online and extracted the bootloader.bin file from it. I then wrote it to the beginning of an SD card using dd like this:

sudo dd if=bootloader.bin of=/dev/sdX

Where sdX is my SD card.

Now, at least, the box is trying to boot from the SD card and I can get into U-Boot.

Here are the logs I see now:

So, is it possible to run Armbian without a NAND chip?
I can’t write the system image to the SD card because the bootloader has to be placed at the beginning of the card, and it’s quite large — it overwrites the partition table of the SD card.

I tried writing the system image to a USB flash drive instead, but as you can see from the logs, U-Boot can’t initialize USB.

Is this a problem with an incompatible U-Boot, or is the SoC already in very bad shape?

Armbian on Box K12 Bqeel / Mini M8S pro C (S912)

Tue, 15 Aug 2023 15:19:41 +0000

Hello all,

I'm new member on this forum and I want became new user of armbian to install Home Assistant on my box.

My box is a Bqeel K12 but i opened box and I see a label on the mother board where is write Mini M8S pro C.

So I try to install armbian debian. I used this version "Armbian_23.5.1_Uefi-arm64_bookworm_current_6.1.30_cinnamon_desktop.img"

I followed this topic to find the good dbt file : https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus/

I found differents dbt files which look like working properly (I have the desktop, I can navigate, open application...) BUT at each time is not possible to acces to internet (with Wifi or lan).

I try to configure manually the connection with the tool available on desktop but is not working.

a precision : before to install armbian, I totally remove android. Do you think that can be the root cause ?

Thanks in advance

s905x box can't see emmc

Thu, 01 May 2025 12:22:16 +0000

Hi
I have x96 box with s905x cpu, a long time ago i flashed it with libreelec and it was running from emmc only without a problem.
Now flashed armbian to emmc but bootloader works only from usb or sdcard (cannot see mmc). Tried images s905x and s905x-t95 - same result.

Is this a result of some misconfiguration/image selection or ..?

Currently using sdcard for boot partition only as workaround.
