    lvmc got a reaction from guidol in The repository 'http://apt.armbian.com xenial Release' does not have a Release file.   
    @guidol, I was talking with @Igor these days and I think the main issue is how slow (and prone to errors) is the repository generator scripts for generating packages for all releases... it's time consuming and requires a lot of efforts from him. I'm taking a look at the scripts to see if I find a way to optimize it. Older releases must be support as `csc` I think.
     
    And yes, I'm using exactly the repositories you suggested, thanks:
     
    deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial main restricted universe multiverse #deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-security main restricted universe multiverse #deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-security main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates main restricted universe multiverse #deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse #deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse  
    By the way now it's clearly that the affected packages are only the ones that are build by Armbian, not the packages that are provided by the official Ubuntu repositories.

    Just a little bit list, more detail would be done on wiki soon.
    1. NEO4 board size is 45 x 56mm, but M4 is 85 x 56mm
    2. NEO4 has 1GB DDR3 RAM with single chanel, But M4 has two version 2GB DDR3 RAM/4G LPDDR3 RAM with Dual Chanel.
    3. NEO4  will use AP6212 wireless module with single antenna , but M4 use AP6356S dual-band module, and use 2x2 MIMO and 2 real antennas. 
    4. NEO4 has one MIPI-CSI, M4 has two MIPI-CSI
    5. NEO4 has USB3.0  x1 & USB 2.0  x1, but M4 has USB 3.0 x4 behind a VL817 internal hub.
    6. NEO4 use 1.27mm pitch SMD connector for GPIO-40 pinout,  M4 is same with RPi3 40pin GPIO.
     
    Both have:
    1. PCIe x2 pin-out
    2. eMMC module connector
    3. GigE port.
    4. TypeC is for power supply and OTG.

    But BPi-M2+ has 'no voltage regulation' for CPU.

    Which makes it 'not useful'.  Maybe you can fix this issue (and make an annotation in your documentation for this board) when you produce the next batch of this board?

    Nice! Thank you for reacting so promptly on me complaining here and there  . Which eMMC modules do you now use on the Air?
     
     
    BTW: this kernel is now somewhat outdated (ok, not that much as the 3.4 other H2+/H3 board makers use), please ensure that as soon as 4.14 is ready Weidong switches to this version since 4.14 will become an LTS release (long term support). IMO you should also overthink maintaining your own mainline kernel fork since it will be just PITA to merge in all upstream changes (I recommended it already to Weidong back in March: adopt Armbian's build system to your needs -- soooo easy -- and submit patches for your own devices here just like other responsible vendors do -- eg. Olimex)
     
    On a related note: Weidong chose to implement DRAM configuration in an incompatible way compared to how it's done upstream. This led already to a lot of confusion since Linux and u-boot maintainers now look into your sources and overtake settings that aren't valid.
     
    Please remind Weidong of the problem: https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/b57c9d767ead528a54001d8728d39470e9faf5e4#commitcomment-23045104
     
    Upstream maintainers now use wrong settings (eg. just 408 MHz for NanoPi M1 Plus while choosing 672 MHz for NEO 2 and so on) and there's a lot of confusion. The best idea would be if he could simply join this thread here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/linux-sunxi/coQGctAipgI (telling he's from FriendlyELEC and explaining which DRAM clockspeeds are meant to be used for which board and maybe why you chose to go another route than the standard way defining RAM parameter definitions)
     
    Thank you a lot for the heads-up. Such feedback from vendors is always welcome!

    Mikey should think about this lines too:
    [uart3] uart_used = 1 uart_port = 3 uart_type = 2 uart_tx = port:PA13<3><1><default><default> uart_rx = port:PA14<3><1><default><default> uart_rts = port:PA15<3><1><default><default> uart_cts = port:PA16<3><1><default><default> From your schematics, PA15 & PA16 are expanded on 'CON 2' header, so it would be no problem to use it (uart_type = 4).
     
    Further (line 790 to 793):
    [s_rsb0] s_rsb_used = 1 s_rsb_sck = port:PL00<2><1><2><default> s_rsb_sda = port:PL01<2><1><2><default> half of this bus is now used for switching between 1.1V & 1.3V so s_rsb_used = 0 cause you can't use it for other porpuses.  
     
    Maybe if you want to improve things, Mikey  could also set a 1 (w1_used) here:
    [w1_para] w1_used = 0 gpio = 10 gpio = 10 means that one-wire would be available on (PA10, means PIN35 on your expansion header) or to make it even easier for the users set 'gpio = 20' (PA20) which would than be the nice PIN40 on this header. But you have to inform your users that they should set CPU min freq to 480MHz (otherwise your Forum would be full of stuff like 'why's one wire disappearing constantly?' ). This might be something for your gitbook pages. Explaining the users 'how to connect something like DS18b20 to my BPi M2 Zero'

    To stop wasting my and other's time on this boring 'issue' here a final summary:
    Close to unbelievable but after another 'evil tkaiser attacking us' event today the hardware vendor 'fixed' voltage regulation description. Just to remind you: this file has to be correct in the first place, there's no excuse for such wrong information there, it's simply the hardware vendor describing how the board works. So now that PL01 is used for voltage regulation (now in conflict with another active PL01 entry for s_rsb_sda -- good luck!) only all gmac* entries are still wrong and cooler_table not using the 912 MHz OPP is most probably a great recipe for poor performance when overheating occurs. So in case someone from SinoVoip wants to fix their pseudo Armbian build it would be wise to fix the fex first since afterwards Armbian's h3consumption tool can work without issues (today not due to still wrong fex file) On their Gitbook pages the size of M2 Zero increased by 5mm (now at least this most basic info is correct), most of the other 'information' is still sparse, wrong, missing, bogus. But fortunately the hardware is still too small on their product page and of course soon everywhere around the globe in advertisements and product listings since all resellers use the wrong dimensions they've been provided with back in July. So anyone interested in this board running with the outdated legacy kernel: chances are great that you get a working OS image over at bananapi.org (soon). As a reminder: Armbian follows the policy to not officially support Raspberry Pi boards which of course also applies to deliberately compatible looking but mostly incompatible RPi clones like this M2 Zero here (we don't want to see this forum/community dying when RPi users or fooled M2 Zero customers arrive) Armbian also tries to phase out legacy kernel support (3.4.113 which is not supported any longer since over half a year now). CSI/camera support with mainline kernel is still WiP so when switching from legacy to mainline camera functionality will also be missing. Again no reason to officially support such a device Third 'problem': dishonest advertising. Nowhere is mentioned by the vendor that M2 Zero is totally incompatible to RPi cameras (which is something average buyers expect) and RPi software (which is something clueless buyers expect from something that mimics the look of an RPi Zero and is said to run 'Raspberry Pi image'). There's really no reason for us here wasting our spare time with support efforts like this: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/5579-power-off-with-hdd-over-active-hub/?do=findComment&comment=43088  
    Exactly. @Lion Wang's problem is that he wants to sell hardware and his company earned a very negative reputation over the last years (believing this would be caused only by evil people outside and not related to their internal and pretty real problems). That's something where some idiots here at Armbian could help working for him in their spare time and doing his software and support work.
     
    @lvmc has the problem that he wants to use this BPi board with his own camera modules. Should work now so let's please stop babbling about community and so on.
     
    We have the problem that even if we wanted to support SinoVoip products they don't allow us. They refuse to cooperate, do not provide correct hardware descriptions, do not listen to community, delete community knowledge, ignore(d) even patches they got for free just due to ignorance, ignorance, ignorance.
     
    A few people here suggested to give SinoVoip a final chance. I support this. The problem is... I and others are dealing with Banana madness now in the 3rd year. We have heard that so often that it simply got too boring. So let's step back now, give them 6 months of time to show that they're willing to improve, deal with their internal ignorance/stupidity problems and then let's have a look again.
     
    In the meantime it would be great if people would stop asking us for anything Banana related. Thank you.

    I have to agree with@chwe on this, I am in the automotive industry, not only would I be fired for such documentation of a design, there could be federal charges brought against myself and my company ending with me in jail if incorrect documentation could be linked to a failure or unexpected behaviour. Not to mention losing all OEM business, etc.

    It is not such an impossible task to document properly. But attacking anyone who points out factual errors in your paperwork causes animosity and people will refuse to support these products. Trust me, I am no stranger to poor documentation. But at least for the ASUS Tinker Board the problem is missing documentation, not incorrect documentation. Were it incorrect I would have immediately recommended Armbian drop all support for the board, no matter how popular it may be.

    Now, as an engineer I am accustomed to dealing with suppliers. In this situation, that is your role. You are a supplier of single board computers to a marketplace. That gives the user (customer) a certain amount of agency over you, the customer can require correct documentation, the customer can provide negative feedback and refuse to use your product. As a supplier it is your duty to provide a product the customer wants. In the single board computer world that is more than a board, it is also the means to use it. Your product cannot simply be defined as a board, your product is a board and a manual. And that manual needs to make it possible to use the board. The manual includes complete and correct schematics, diagrams of all exposed connections, a basic board support package (device tree or equivalent, vendor-specific drivers, uboot if not mainline, etc)

    As you have pointed out, most SBC suppliers in this market have flaws. But I have seen none that are outright confrontational and generally unprofessional. Do you think I don't have customers and coworkers just as disagreeable as Thomas is capable of being? Of course I do, many far worse actually. Do I respond the way you do? No, or else I would not have a job. Do I always agree with the magnitude and force of Thomas's quick anger? No. But I certainly understand it. I actually refused to reply several times during this thread because I felt my feedback would be less than professional. However, my reserved tone has apparently caused some confusion which I felt it necessary to clear up.

    I want to see a good competition between board makers, and the obvious benefits that come with it. So to that end I want to see you succeed. However, for that to happen you need to also compete in documentation. You have said you will, but be aware I will not engage in any development, privately or for Armbian, until there is some proof of that effort. A big step would be addressing the concerns you have heard here so many times that I'm even tired of reading about them.

    @Lion Wang SinoVoip's gitbooks has to be reviewed. Technical information is not consistent and English is not good enough, it has to be fixed urgently. Over the last years I have been seeing many Chinese companies doing good products or at least pursuing to build good products but failing on how to communicate and support customers, think about it. Never forget that customers don't care about how hard is to build a new product or how insane is to run a business, they only care about how good the product is.
     
    @Tido gave a good suggestion... before releasing any new product and during the entire product lifespan do short technical / writing meetings with your technical team to consolidate knowledge.
     
    The entire problem here seems to be about communication, as always. Most of Chinese companies have good engineers that doesn't even speak or write in English. If it is the case, hire someone that could help you to fulfil this gap, as soon as possible.
     
    @TonyMac32, @chwe thank you for focusing on the real problems, not at person level discussions. In just a few questions I think you got the answers you were looking for. That is a good start point.

    In my option, things are getting too aggressive and boring from both sides and it is not good for both the Armbian community and SinoVoip business.
     
    @Lion Wang the community & customers are not satisfied with the information you are providing about your products. As CEO you have to listen and act as soon as possible to correct what is wrong.
     
    @tkaiser you are essential for Armbian community, but it has been useless to read your posts about SinoVoip.
     
    My suggestion is to give the last official chance for SinoVoip with Armbian community. I suggest to port Armbian to BPI ZERO and during the porting process both sides tell everything about what is not going right or hasn't been done right. Documentation is not good? SinoVoip will fix it. We need some detailed information about the hardware? SinoVoip will provide it... and so on.

    @balbes150 and @chocho
     
    I learnt how to extract the dtb and dts file from Beelink Android images. I will be documenting it here to help other users, but it is the exactly process @chocho already did.
     
    1) update your GT1 device with GT1_104M0.img or GT1_104M0_AP6255.img
     
    2) power-up, boot GT1;
     
    3) copy boot.img from running Android image
    adb pull /dev/block/boot boot.img 4) download split_bootimg.pl tool and run it over boot.img
    wget -c http://www.enck.org/tools/split_bootimg_pl.txt -O split_bootimg.pl chmod a+x split_bootimg.pl split_bootimg.pl boot.img Result:

    While the support of S912 is still WIP, and not very stable, I think it might be good to have to separated thread.
    Once the support of S912 is as good as the s905, I think we can merge the topics, but it's only my opinion. 
    Thanks for your help.
