Providing logs with
armbianmonitor -u
helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

@luxix That link is for the s905w cpu which is a different cpu than the s905w2

Generally this means that you are holding the reset button too long. When powered with the reset button pressed it should after a few seconds 'reboot' at that time you can release it. If you continue to hold for an extended period of time it will go to the android recovery.

You need to go to the Inovato site for questions/support. Per their website:
"IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have any questions or problems with this process, by all means use the Armbian Forums to search for information, but please DO NOT ask questions if you can't find your answer. They don't support the Quadra firmware: We do. So please use the Support category on this forum."
-
More specifically, you downloaded from a site that is not Armbian. They are a fork of armbian, but continue to use the Armbian name without permission. They do not participate in these forums. There is no way we can help you since you aren't using Armbian, you will need to go to the location you downloaded your build from and get help there.
-
Please tell us what you have done. You have provided no information for us to help you debug your issue. What build are you using, what steps have you done to get to the point you mentioned?

Moved post to a new thread

I would recommend that you first start with a pre-built image (https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-pc) Then if you want use the armbian build system (https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/)
Then you might be able to track down why the Debos isn't working as you think it should.
-
Since you aren't using Armbian, you really should direct your question to the retrorangepi forums

You can check my DTB and add for HK1box-LAN100m to the armbian build
Please provide a dts so that it could be incorporated. Having the built binary isn't useful, need the source file.

No, the chip manufacturer never released source code for the chip, so it can't be supported by mainline linux
-
The video you linked to is 5 years old and doesn't reflect the current state of the builds.

aml_autoscript.zip
This file doesn't exist in the builds on this site. What build are you using?
-
You didn't answer my first question on what downloads you are talking about.
-
Toothpick is the preferred/only method I would use.
-
As far as I'm aware, nowhere does it state in any instructions that you can use twrp.
-
You can't install via twrp, only via update - those are different processes.

I've tried to download it from different places
What are you trying to download from different places? Be specific.
The screen you are showing isn't something that you should ever be in. This isn't part of the install instructions. Please give the steps you are performing, that lead you to this screen?
-
@LawrenceBoothby Instead of posting links to instructions that are no longer valid (since those downloads no longer exist). It would be more useful for the community if you tried current builds and updated your site accordingly. https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus

sudo prompts for the users password (not roots password) - that is the whole point of sudo, allowing a user with sudo privilege to issue commands as root, but first requiring they re-authenticate themselves.
-
@SergioAiello If I understand you correctly, you still have access to the system via a regular user account. It is likely that this regular user account was the one created during your first boot, in which case that user will have sudo permissions. So you can sudo su root to become the root user, and from there you can reset the root password.

There is no mainline linux support for the s905x4. And I don't know of anyone working on it. Therefore this box may never be supported.
HK1 box LAN 100 (s905x3) latest releases with kernel 6.1 does not start from SD card
in Amlogic CPU Boxes

Where are you looking? I only see one desktop build - xfce (although a Debian version and an Ubuntu version).
You probably would be best suited using the dtb from this thread. Otherwise the instructions say to try them all and see which works best (note that s905x3 is meson-sm1).
