@dfahren I see that you have a lot to add here, I would like you to participate in the integration of this board in Joshua Riek's project to enable RKNPU, where the board already works but there is the problem of the maskrom button, micro stuttering and the memory clock. edit: the u-boot 2025.01 for h96max v56 was merged, also wifi works out of the box, no patch needed. @maka @mvpwar @hzdm @dfahren @Vincenzoernst1 @pessimism please keep a copy from next armbian release for this board.

Ok, I made changes that will make possible add this uboot 2025.01 to armbian build mainline @dfahren https://github.com/hqnicolas/ArmBoardBringUp/tree/deetsh Some features that was allowed with this: https://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/iCore-3588MQ/usage_adc.html After some tests, it was pulled for main https://github.com/hqnicolas/ArmBoardBringUp working in a pull request for armbian community.... edit: pull request to armbian: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7746

Great job man, it works, it's fast, can you show us the secret sauce? Did you find a way to include it on armbian?

@DreamDreams @maka @paradigman @dfahren I built some images Joshua-Riek ubuntu-rockchip Also request inclusion for h96 max v56 to github project ######## 22.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64-h96max-v56 22.04-preinstalled-server-arm64-h96max-v56 deal with wifi drivers for kernel 5.1 ######## 24.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64-h96max-v56 24.04-preinstalled-server-arm64-h96max-v56 deal with wifi drivers and stutterings for Kernel 6.1 ######## With this, now you can run Frigate or other iA Software that uses RKnpu https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/object_detectors/#rockchip-platform https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/hardware_acceleration/#rockchip-platform example usage: mqtt + frigate docker casaos

It seems that this time they excluded the passive components from the board, look at the v56 board SD reader, you will need to add 2 ceramic capacitors to the board i think. and also check the Reader body 4 large GND pads if it's sodered. no device is needed to use the SD reader you must have a TTL connected to the board to debug, clear the EMMC with this method: using the T95 Method On android ROM flash the Wipe_part on Boot partition flash the Wipe_part on Recovery partition Connect the power cord... wait 1 second and in a fraction of second, connect the sd-Card on device..... if it doesn't boot, try again in a different timming 2 seconds after power. Based on this example

You're the first reporting, so, if when you have Armbian in your device, and it shows 8gb, it's 8gb. about the wifi/ethernet problem: it's a BUG made by the chinese developer that misconfig pinout's in dtb, that we can fix here... 50% of the problem is recognizing the problem, 45% is fighting it and 5% is talent you are at 50% already. start your journey against the other 45% and find the 5% along the way.

@DreamDreams I think the joshua Riek board add is ready here the DTB file need to be changed inside the image before boot use this method, I will fix it later

I have soldered 2 terminals on this pads to avoid cooper damage on board. You will need wayland, like PopOs the best desktop I think is the armbian "fake ubuntu" wayland interface called cinnamon I have a mod for armbian 22.04 also the same mod that was applyed on desktop example image @dfahren If you have the armbian build on your machine, please test this: on the file config/boards/h96-tvbox-3566.tvb add this line: BOOT_SCENARIO="spl-blobs" like the old board config file. I think this is the solution to this problem I don't remember if the introduction of this spl-blobs implies anything related to the security of the platform, as there may be some fallback for improper boot. @paradigman you are already a bearded man Please DIY an armbian edge image with Armbian Build I created this topic so you can create your own "don't trust, verify" images

############################### if you already flash the armbian firmware ############################### cd /lib/firmware/brcm/ wget https://github.com/CoreELEC/brcmfmac_sdio-firmware-aml/raw/master/firmware/brcm/fw_bcm4335b0_ag.bin sudo ln -s fw_bcm4335b0_ag.bin brcmfmac4335-sdio.h96-TVbox,rk3566.bin reboot now https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B1LmAylalETcnBEWiPiJHL0MjK5xlIV4/view It could be something related to file permissions. You need to do an LS inside the folder and check if all the files have the same permission level. I think this txt file could be different for your kernel version

this can be fixed, until kernel 6.6.34 this buttom works fine, after I update it to u-boot 2024-7 this buttom stop working, "need to fix the reset file.DTS" if you use my desktop example image you will find that the buttom works fine

When the android device comes with a Java android pandora malware that is known to be used for DDOS attacks, everything starts to make sense. It's china brow, all companies are arms of the government. when the product is free, you are the product. If you can't fine tune the DDR chip, you will find that this chip are fake, made by chinese X-Ray copy cats @dfahren I've never try to finetune this memory, I let it with android config.

4266mbps lpddr4 8gb bga200 I believe you can fine tune your memory using this information @dfahren https://www.lcsc.com/datasheet/lcsc_datasheet_2207151030_SK-HYNIX-H9HCNNN8KUMLHR-NME_C2912103.pdf Also the @Andre B board that is the newer version with different lan chip: 200b SDRAM 9KE77 DWLV Micron

sun50i-h6-orangepi-3.dts No otg for this board? did you find any OTG function for android? you can set it as OTG and use the otg port as power supply &usb2otg { /* * This board doesn't have a controllable VBUS even though it * does have an ID pin. Using it as anything but a USB host is * unsafe. */ dr_mode = "otg"; status = "okay"; };

I think it can be fixed with a .dtso file for change ethernet LAN JL2101 1000M it goes inside this folder on armbian build and will overlay the lan config like this other file here but to test the effectiveness the individual needs to have the board in person as it is not possible to test on the original v56 board you will need to find this guy that have this board

in some SBC's with RK3566 people use it even without heatsink. City Temperature: (8 °C ~ 25 °C) This is impossible. this device is a SOC and don't have BIOS or UEFI it uses bootloader.bin + uboot Rockchip, also you can find it in other devices like orangepi-3b and take it, I like to take it from android recovery images because miniBootloaderAll.bin tests all DDR latency's and clock's before boot because this bootloader came inside the ROM in the first 2mb, when you flash it with rockchip dev it errases all again, you can extract your bootloader and reuse it after EMMC format. (I don't remember how, but it's possible) it will never go wrong, just if you fisically damage the device please make sure that your device is "H96 MAX V56" if you buy a new "H96 MAX" the LAN will need to be manually fixed. @GBEM have a great document This other Topic have all development for this device since 2022 it start by using android u-boot + Kernel 4.19 until images v0.7 I still use android u-boot, since 1.0 (2023) it uses mainline u-boot and I stop building Update images @dfahren feel free to find other way to flash armbian and edit the armbian board config files everything here is experimental, nothing is absolute and new efforts are always welcome
