  1. I have a X88 pro 10 box with a RK3318 chip. I have installed Armbian_22.05.0-trunk_Rk3318-box_bullseye_current_5.15.35_minimal.img using the Multitool to the internal eMMC.

    This Installation worked fine.

     

    Question#1
    I'm having a problem rebooting. If I use at the cli 'sudo reboot' the box will not reboot. If I physically power cycle the box it reboots ok.

    After installing I used the following that i found in the forums 'sudo apt-mark hold linux-image-current-rockchip64 linux-dtb-current-rockchip64' then i updated with apt-get update and apt-get upgrade 

    Is anyone having the cannot reboot problem. Anyone have a fix?

     

    Question #2

    When the box initially boots there is a delay form the time I plug in the power till the time Armbian starts its onscreen load of the OS. This time seems long. Can i somehow shorten this?

  2. Thank you all

    I tested   Armbian 22.02 - Ubuntu Jammy (beta) desktop [xfce] - mainline kernel 5.15.23 

     

    --  WORKING  --

    WIFI (LG642 WIFI chip)

    Boot from SD-card

    Flash SD to eMMC (using armbian-config)

    Updates (with Linux image and kernel headers as hold)

     

    --  POTENTIAL PROBLEM  --

    Boot from eMMC working BUT (with no SD-Card installed)

    - Slow initial start before anything on screen. About 13 seconds from power plugged in to the first text on screen. Then normal boot

     

    --  NOT WORKING  --

    RAM size not correct image sees 2gb but board is 4gb 

    Front LEDs (completely blank)

     

    dmesg

     

     

     

  3. Here is a google drive with the original firmware. It is Android 11. Thank you for looking at this @jock

    I have a second question about the Multitool. I did an install on a box that I customized and then backed up via the Multitool. I can then put it back on the box using Multitool recover backup. This works fine. But is there a way to put the backup image on an sd card and then boot off the sd card? I tried flashing the backup file with Etcher to another sd but it will not boot.

  4. I need help with WIFI. I have a few X88 PRO 10 (4GB RAM 64GB ROM RK3318) that I purchased from the same Amazon seller. Unfortunately the seller must source from different suppliers as they are not all the same. Some have a SP6330 WIFI chip and this works fine. But others have a LG642 WIFI chip that is NOT working. The LG642 WIFI chip looks to have the same manufacturer marking on it as the Sp6330 (a sun). When using the rk3318-config (running it 2 times with reboot)  I get the following. But WIFI will not connect.

     

    Wifi device: Broadcom BCM4334/AmPak AP6334 - Device ID: 02d0:4334

     

    In armbianEnv.txt I have the following:

    verbosity=1

    bootlogo=false

    overlay_prefix=rockchip

    fdtfile=rockchip/rk3318-box.dtb

    rootdev=UUID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    rootfstype=ext4

    console=both

    overlays=rk3318-box-wlan-ext rk3318-box-led-conf2 rk3318-box-wlan-ap6330

    usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u

     

    I started with 

    Armbian 22.02 - Ubuntu Jammy (beta) desktop [xfce] - mainline kernel 5.15.17 - 2022-01-29

  5. With help form everyone here I now have everything working with the x88 pro 10.

    Using the image Armbian 21.11 - Debian Bullseye desktop [xfce] - mainline kernel 5.15.2

    WIFI works

    Display resolution works

     

    I could not get rockchip drivers to work with startx/Xsession and Armbian 21.11 - Debian Bullseye minimal - mainline kernel 5.15.2

    WIFI NO

    display resolution NO

     

    One question?

    I cannot figure out how to autologin to the Desktop GUI. The system boots and waits at the login screen with the username. 

    Where is the autologin setting?? 

     

    EDIT

    Found the answer to my own question

    /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf 

    uncomment

    autologin-user=username  #replace with your username
    autologin-user-timeout=0

     

  6.  

    Another day, another Board.  I now have a few of these boards. x88 pro m10 4GB RAM 64GB ROM

     

    1 . Installed to eMMc --- Armbian 21.11 - Debian Bullseye minimal - mainline kernel 5.15.2 Build date: 2021-11-12

    WORKED NO PROBLEM

     

    2. Try to get WIFI working. 

    NOT WORKING

    running  rk3318-config but it indicates  "No WIFI chip has been detected". I go through the menus and try each option rk3318-box-led-conf1  -  rk3318-box-led-conf2  -  rk3318-box-led-conf3 and generic then reboot each time. No luck No WIFI and No leds.

    In file /boot/armbianEnv.txt there is overlays=rk3318-box-wlan-ext

     

    Any ideas?

  7. @jockMy following comment in no way is me blaming you or the Armbian project.

     

    But I installed the wrong image with the thought that "Technically, rockchip devices cannot be bricked" as you commented in post Posted April 16. Maybe you can reword this for others if they try too.

     

    And again I DO NOT put any blame on you. You are doing amazing work here! You did start the post as you should with

     

    "DISCLAIMER (PLEASE READ): everything you can find in this thread (binaries, texts, code snippets, etc...) are provided AS-IS and are not part of official Armbian project.

    Mark

  8. I bricked the board using Armbian_21.05.1_Rk322x-box_buster_current_5.10.34_minimal.img  I just uploaded it to emmc with the Multitool and did not first test by booting it off an sd card. The screen is now Black and I can no longer boot form SD. I even tried a usba-usba cable and nothing. The PC will not recognize the board connected. I do get a red led when powering the board. 

     

    My first flash of the emmc was using Armbian 21.11 - Debian Bullseye minimal - mainline kernel 5.15.2  Build date: 2021-11-12 and that worked no problem (except choppy video)

  9. No luck can't get anything out of the box. I'm going to just buy another one and load it again.

     

    Here is my use for the box. I'm making a Digital Signage Player. The Player autoloads chromium inside a openbox-session and plays content on a webpage.

    When the box was working I had installed "Armbian 21.11 - Debian Bullseye minimal - mainline kernel 5.15.2  Build date: 2021-11-12" and it ran fine

    EXCEPT Video playback was very choppy. So I looked at the ROCKCHIP-LEGACY MULTIMEDIA INTEGRATION but could not get it to work with Bullseye

     

    Is there a way to get smooth video running the above OS image?? Videos are very slow and choppy.

     

    Second problem No WIFI or LEDS. But this is not top priority for me as any box I use will be hard wired ethernet

     

    If interested i used the following webpage to AutoStart chromium and get the display up

    https://golb.hplar.ch/2019/01/kiosk-mode-nano-pi.html

  10. This is a great project. Thanks for all the hard work

     

    I have successfully installed on a X88 pro 10 aTv box following the instructions here. Its running off the internal  eMMc flash. But I cannot get WIFI or LEDs to run. When using rk3318-config I get a message "No WIFI chip has been detected". I select rk3318-box-led-conf2 form the board configuration but noting happens. I have also tried the other 2 options but nothing. Even generic is not working. And I rebooted after each try. Below are links to photos of my board. Hope someone can help 

     

    Thanks in advance
