Have you tried running sunxi-fw with the boot image you used to extract the dts? The boot image you posted is a U-Boot FIT image. It doesn't have the dram information we are looking for. I believe mmcblk0boot0 is the correct boot image but the one you uploaded didn't work with sunxi-fw. Also, I found this in your dts. Maybe these settings will work. To make sure these settings are correct I prefer to get the dram settings using the sunxi-fw tool. dram { compatible = "allwinner,dram"; clocks = <0xda>; clock-names = "pll_ddr"; dram_clk = <0x288>; dram_type = <0x07>; dram_zq = <0x3f3fdd>; dram_odt_en = <0x9988eeee>; dram_para1 = <0x30fa>; dram_para2 = <0x1000>; dram_mr0 = <0x00>; dram_mr1 = <0xc3>; dram_mr2 = <0x06>; dram_mr3 = <0x01>; dram_tpr0 = <0x00>; dram_tpr1 = <0x00>; dram_tpr2 = <0x00>; dram_tpr3 = <0x00>; dram_tpr4 = <0x00>; dram_tpr5 = <0x00>; dram_tpr6 = <0x2fc08080>; dram_tpr7 = <0x00>; dram_tpr8 = <0x00>; dram_tpr9 = <0x00>; dram_tpr10 = <0x402f3379>; dram_tpr11 = <0xd100b0f>; dram_tpr12 = <0x11131113>; dram_tpr13 = <0x80060>; linux,phandle = <0x183>; phandle = <0x183>; device_type = "dram"; dram_dx_odt = <0x6060606>; dram_dx_dri = <0xd0d0d0d>; dram_ca_dri = <0x1919>; dram_mr4 = <0x00>; dram_mr5 = <0x00>; dram_mr6 = <0x00>; dram_mr11 = <0x00>; dram_mr12 = <0x00>; dram_mr13 = <0x00>; dram_mr14 = <0x00>; dram_mr16 = <0x00>; dram_mr17 = <0x00>; dram_mr22 = <0x00>; }; The dram clock is in hex you'll need to convert this value to decimal. https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/hex-to-decimal.html

Actually in that post it was about downloading the boot_a partition. Then extracting the dts.. you can skip the dts extraction part for now. We need your boot_a partition. also that’s not the android dts you posted. It has some info but not all of it.

This post should help extracting your boot.img from android. That’s if your box is already rooted.

AXP1530 is the same as AXP313a. Take a look at the link I posted above. You could use this tool to extract your dram settings from an android update or boot0.bin. https://github.com/apritzel/sunxi-fw sunxi-fw info -v boot0.bin

H313/H616/H618 are pretty much the same SOC. It’s the AXP power management IC that’s different. Also RAM and WIFi chips are usually different. https://linux-sunxi.org/AXP_PMICs

Your tv stick probably has secure boot enabled. You can compile a secure boot image using these steps.

Try the Transpeed, vontar, x98h orTanix-acp313 images. There might be few other boxes that use axp313 chip in the list.

Can you tell me the axp### numbers on the chip? I can’t see it in your pictures. Try these images.. maybe you’ll find one that boots https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/tag/20250306

If you are having trouble with hardware decoding. You need to disable the compositor. Follow jock’s setup instructions in the link below. Use this command to restart xfwm4 with compositor disabled. killall xfwm4 && xfwm4 --compositor=off &

I already have that patch. I use the same Ethernet phy on other boxes and it works fine. I don’t have your box so it’s hard for me to debug it. Maybe if you compare sicknull board config uboot and kernel patches with mine you might find the problem. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/patch/u-boot/u-boot-h616/100-sunsi-add-h616-internal-eth-phy-support.patch or if someone can send me a box I’ll add proper support.

@Trauma try this image. Let me know if wifi and ethernet work. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/download/20250306/Armbian-unofficial_25.05.0-trunk_X98h_bookworm_edge_6.12.11_xfce_desktop.img.xz

Try adding this patch https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/patch/kernel/archive/rockchip64-6.12/wifi-4003-add-bcm43342-chip.patch Download my v20250306 branch. Move the patch to the kernel patch directory. /build/patch/kernel/archive/warpme-6.12 Choose "edge" build for kernel 6.12.

@svyatoslav freeze the kernel updates using the armbian-config tool.

@San Dich Huu sure if it’s not needed. Go ahead and delete them.

Glade to see you back @sicxnull. Thanks for the shoutout! Tried my best while you were gone. I don’t own one of these boxes. But I guess it doesn’t matter which one I get because theirs so many variations of the same box.

@jwillb00 I can’t think of anything else. I’ll try to compile another image when I have time.

@jwillb00 I have a newer build with kernel 6.14. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/tree/v20250407 Also, if you choose to change the kernel configuration using the build system it will screw up the kernel configuration file. I think it leaves out the configs from the patches. For example ac200 phy needed for Ethernet. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/patch/kernel/archive/warpme-6.12/0505-net-phy-Add-support-for-AC200-EPHY.patch I edit the configuration file using a text editor and add the modules manually.

@jwillb00In this patch. Try changing 16 to 0. In both locations. Maybe I uploaded the image with these changes. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/patch/u-boot/u-boot-h616/153-add-tanix_tx6s_axp313_defconfig.patch +&mdio1 { + rmii_phy: ethernet-phy@0 { + compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"; + reg = <0>; + }; +}; +

For Ethernet maybe this will fix your problem. The X98H also has the same wifi chip. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/patch/kernel/archive/warpme-6.12/2001-arm64-dts-allwinner-h618-add-x98h.patch +&mmc1 { + vmmc-supply = <&reg_vcc3v3>; + bus-width = <4>; + non-removable; + max-frequency = <35000000>; + status = "okay"; + + wlan: wifi@1 { + reg = <1>; + }; +};

No, that won’t work. This is a Armbian Linux forum. If you need android support try xda forums.

@jwillb00 there’s a drop down menu on the first page. You’ll see “main” as the first option. Select “v20250306” that’s my more recent and stable release. you can clone my build using git command. git clone https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build.git -branch v20250306 kernel config is located here. Edit the configuration manually. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/blob/v20250306/config/kernel/linux-sunxi64-edge.config To compile a new image use the commands cd build ./compile.sh choose "Do not change kernel configuration" choose "Show CSC/WIP/EOS/TVB" choose "I understand and agree" choose "tanix-tx6s-axp313" choose "edge" rest is up to you. Your image should be in output/images directory.

@jwillb00 try this build. https://github.com/LYU4662/t95zplus-h618-build

@jwillb00 I’m using miniarch patches with my build. This is kernel 6.12. I also have 6.14. When I have time I’ll update to 6.15. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/tree/v20250306/patch/u-boot/u-boot-h616 https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/tree/v20250306/patch/kernel/archive/warpme-6.12

@Aleqssandro Farias which miniarch image are you using? Because I’m using miniarch patches so the dts should be the same.

Which image are you using? Axp313? https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/download/20250306/Armbian-unofficial_25.05.0-trunk_Tanix-tx6s-axp313_bookworm_edge_6.12.11.img.xz
