Adding to this, I have a TX3 mini with an S905W currently running 5.7.0 off an sd card. Is there any way to upgrade? I don't mind losing data and wiping everything but I don't know where to find the appropriate builds after the fallout in the main thread. From what I understand, Balbes made it mandatory to have a uboot which is available for only a few specific models. Is this wrong or is there a way to get the newer builds running, like some sort of clean install method?

How do you disable sleep? I can't wake it up and it's still on since the light is on. How do you install it to emmc? I can never find actual instructions for this distro.

I've been able to boot into armbian via sd card without issue using the update method. Ethernet is working and nothing seems to be broken. However, trying to launch Armbian Config to install on eMMC doesn't work because after clicking to open the program a terminal pops up and disappears immediately, similar to how if you opened a command line program in windows just by clicking on it, it would close by itself. I'm not sure if this is a related problem but running terminal and trying to use su fails even though I'm certain I've got the password correct. I even reformatted and installed the image again on the sd card to make sure I set the password correctly but I always get authentication failed. Sudo also fails unless I press Control+Alt+F3 and then I can login on the new screen. Synaptic Package Manager isn't able to open at all as well. On another note, is it possible to back up the android system before installing armbian permanently? All the guides I've seen so far for backing up eMMC are to backup armbian, not the original android installed on it. Edited fix: I was able to fix sudo and config by following the steps in the fix sudo thread on this forum. The other issues still remain.
