Hmm, I have: status_battery_charging = 0 ... charging or not, on Linux lime2 4.8.7-sunxi.

Your board boots normally on power on? BTW: mine is also rev 1.1

What about on older builds?

You can investigate, collect additional info, actively help to solve this problem or wait ... I already did some investigation but haven't found any obvious cause of this.

This used to work fine and we didn't do anything related to break this. Try to build the whole image.

Alternatively you can try our DEV kernel (4.9.0) for H3 boards. It's still experimental so problems are expected. Nevertheless, you might get further than with this old kernel.

I also don't use this feature but just checked - it works exactly as expected, a single click. Read you email once again. Just after the greeting, you can find this:

yes, it's here: /sys/devices/virtual/hdmi/hdmi/attr Edit: I forgot to attach monitor edid.zip edid-with-monitor.zip

Testing branch / images are already updated, but you need to look around forum a little bit.

Here is EDID but my screen is distorted on 4k (doubled screen, left and right) ... strange. This used to work fine. I have to investigate when we broke it ... running on Banana Pi M2+ Edit: previous kernel works fine. I guess this patch breaks 4k?

Mali driver is generally usable only for certain offline games, benchmark rotating 3D objects and KODI menu. There is no acceleration with Chrome whatsoever on any of supported boards. Playing video works just fine, out of the box on desktop images. Two days ago we changed MALI drivers and this might even be fixed. Haven't done tests on 2GB models yet.

I'm just practical since it will be an easy port for non UHD capable devices, A10, A20, ... It fails there too.

No, no luck. What about other approach - to set max resolution to 1080p or at least fall back to defaults? Better smaller picture than none.

Screen is just pink.

Note that I haven't test all this with current u-boot so I would not rush for a new cable yet. This is first build of H3 u-boot with video driver - added about 24h ago.

Let's wait for more tests ... I have only one monitor and no problems with 720p,1080p and 2160p ... except u-boot can't handle 2160p which is a known problem. BTW: AFAIK 1024x768 is defaults when EDID detection is not successful. Try forcing screen resolution at uboot prompt. Check this example for 1024x768 with small overscan: setenv video-mode sunxi:1024x768-24@60,monitor=dvi,hpd=0,edid=0,overscan_x=1,overscan_y=2 saveenv Boot cycle, reset after this.

Not sure about the problem you face, but the driver is not perfectly polished in general - bugs were not made by Jernej's porting.

There is one bug which affect 4k monitors (also present upstream) ... it can't allocate enough memory for 2160p and fails to init the display. It would be better to switch to 1080p instead. If you are already working on it, you might see a simple solution for fixing this?

@zammy Those boards are all very similar ... try Opi Zero image. @zador.blood.stained [ warn ] Following packages failed to build: [ .... ] libglshim:jessie:armhf [ .... ] libglshim:xenial:armhf

Todays images and repository was rebuild after this: Add fixed Mali driver for sun8i. Needs testing

My 2cents. Wireless driver works now out of the box. Almost Firmware is at standard place, dhd driver was patched to prevent false recognition, but driver needs to be loaded twice to work I am done for the week, so if one have time to proceed from here. Probably we should need to power WiFi in u-boot ... I try with: CONFIG_MMC_SUNXI_SLOT_EXTRA=2 which I thought it could do the work, but no luck.

We moved to a new server a couple of days ago and we forgot to handle tld address. We had fixed those problems yesterday, hopefully I believe is cache related.
