ROOD

@jock Everything seems to be working "fine" from the SD Card but so far after using rk3318-config and choosing the YX board, while i get Wifi it doesn't connect, i can see the networks (sometimes it says that the resource is busy) but even when i plug in the SSID and Password it just goes back to the menu and doesn't work. Right now i was able to access it via Ethernet and SSH so that works as intended. EDIT: Tried to get some more info and it seems that there is a driver issue, dmesg gives me the following output Did a search for that.blob file but couldn't find it, maybe i could get it from a Stock rom?

@jockIf i have an image already on the EMMC will i be able to boot from multitool without shorting the pads? Or since i'll have a working EMMC boot it will no longer boot from SD?

@jock after much suffering i was able to boot the multitool and delete the emmc image, i can now boot into the multitool without having to short the pads. Now... i need to find a suitable image for my board... Downloading... Armbian_community_25.5.0-trunk.87_Rk3318-box_bookworm_current_6.12.15_minimal.img Flashing.... Done... Booting.... HOLY it worked lol! Im at the login screen... im guessing the default is something like "root" "1234" or similar. Now i need to write the image to the emmc... EDIT: The image seems to work but for some reason when connected to my tv i tried to connect to wifi and the image started to stutter i couldn't get it to connect to wifi but it did see my network. weird... need to keep trying i guess

@jock Hey, yeah... i messed up big time hehe So.. i made my own DIY Male to Male USB, used the pads suggested by Constantin and i was able to boot into maskrom mode, at least it says it found a device when i plug it in. Using RKDevTool v2.86 i get the prompt that it found the device but nothing works, i cant seem to do anything with it, not sure what im doing wrong.

@otus thanks for the link and advice. At this moment I'm even struggling to get to boot from SD I was following a guide and it told me to write the image to the Flash and now i cant even get the Multitool to boot from SD. I tried to use the EMMC pins method but either i did it wrong or i dont know what im doing. I shorted those pads with a dupont jumper wire and plugged in the power then unshorted it but nothing seems to happen when i do that

@jock Hey! Thanks for all your effort trying to bring Armbian to the TV Boxes. I wanted to ask if there was a chance to port it to the BQEEL U1 PRO, it has the RK3328 CPU. I totally screwed the flash up doing some experiments and i couldn't get the flash backup so im kinda lost on that front. I tried to download the images from the first link but every link is broken. I wonder if there is a mirror or any other way to get the images Tried searching for them elsewhere but got nothing but a very weird image This one that kind of works but it just blinks the led blue and red without any Video output. Maybe its just a dtb issue but im too new to fully understand and fix the issue Edit: I was able to boot using the Multitool and tried to burn an image to EMMC but now it doesn't boot with either option. I tried to short the pins like Constantin did here Very similar board if not the same but couldn't get it to boot, maybe im missing something.... Here are some images
