happy happy, joy joy, kernel compilation and upgrade to buster (jessie to stretch to buster) without any error. For compilation of the kernel i followed the instructions at https://licheepizero.us/build-kernel-for-licheepi-zero I just changed to kernel 5.2 instead default branch 4.10.y, also i used the latest gcc-linaro instead the one mentioned in the instructions. Next thing to do: make X running :-)

I first connected the fan to the, in earlyer versions disfunctional, USB3 port. I didnt came accross such behavior like u described, but i will check it out. Thanks for the advice After reading most of this thread again (just to not miss the big breaktrough #install_armbian_to_emmc) without finding a working solution for my box. If somebody got use for it, i managed to extract the original dtb/dts from emmc of the Box, but compiling them with a 5.0 Kernel didnt work. I just got a black screen/Box didnt start. Lets hope somebody have better compiling skills and manage to give the box a meaning of life; cause just running Android must be depressing for this nice device 😎😋

I tryed some ways of cooling that device passive, but only this one keeps the temperature constant over time. Current came first from a modded usb-cable, but connecting to the 3,3v of the uart port does the job too and keep the noise down. Not pretty, but it improves the lifetime of the cpu 😎
