@Nick A I’m using the MiniArch image that was shared here on the forum. From it, I extracted the DTBs, Image, and other boot files, and replaced them in the Armbian image. I also took the bootloader from the MiniArch image and replaced the one in Armbian. With that, I managed to boot into Armbian, but unfortunately, no network adapters were detected.

Good afternoon @Nick A I managed to make some progress with the ISO you envy. I extracted the DTB used in MiniArch (which worked on the IK316 TV box) and replaced the DTB in its ISO. However, I noticed that the same error persisted. So, I decided to change the bootloader using the following commands: Extracted the working bootloader: $ dd if=MiniArch-20240715-6.14.0-board-h616.tanix_tx6s_axp313-SD-Image.img of=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin bs=1024 skip=8 count=1016 So I injected it into the ISO that you envied me: $ dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=Armbian-unofficial_25.05.0-trunk_Tanix-tx6s-axp313_bookworm_edge_6.12.11.img bs=1024 seek=8 conv=notrunc After that, I got a new log and the TV Box booted, but I believe Armbian didn't start properly — it seems to take me to the U-Boot console. Here's the full log: " U-Boot SPL 2025.01 (24 de março de 2025 - 21:02:39 +0100) DRAM: 1024 MiB Tentando inicializar a partir do MMC1 AVISO: BL31: v2.10.0 (depuração):v14.0.0-98-gde86a8ab6 AVISO: BL31: Compilado: 01:02:27, 19 de março de 2025 AVISO: BL31: SoC Allwinner H61 detectado (1823) AVISO: BL31: DTB U-Boot encontrado em 0x4a0b0f80, modelo: Tanix TX6s (axp313) INFO: Driver ARM GICv2 inicializado INFO: Configurando o driver SPC INFO: PMIC: Sondando AXP305 sem RSB ERRO: RSB: tempo de execução definido endereço: 0x10003 INFO: Não foi possível inicializar RSB: -65539 INFO: BL31: Configuração da plataforma concluída INFO: BL31: Inicializando serviços de tempo de execução INFO: BL31: cortex_a53: Solução alternativa da CPU para a errata 855873 foi aplicada INFO: BL31: cortex_a53: solução alternativa da CPU para a errata 1530924 foi aplicada INFO: PSCI: Suspender não está disponível INFO: BL31: Preparando para saída EL3 para o mundo normal INFO: Endereço do ponto de entrada = 0x4a000000 INFO: SPSR = 0x3c9 INFO: Árvore de dispositivos alterados.

Hi @Nick A, This ISO you sent has the same UART log error as the previous one. Here's the log: " U-Boot SPL 2025.01-armbian-2025.01-S6d41-P7151-H8869-V98f7-Bb703-R448a-dirty (Apr 02 2025 - 21:19:05 -0400) DRAM: testing 32-bit width, rank = 2 read calibration failed! testing 32-bit width, rank = 1 read calibration failed! testing 16-bit width, rank = 2 read calibration failed! testing 16-bit width, rank = 1 read calibration failed! This DRAM setup is currently not supported. resetting ... " Right now, the only image that boots properly is the MiniArch one.

Hi @Nick A, good afternoon! Yes, I tested them — I tried all three ISOs you shared. I'm sending you the UART logs from two of them: the one you specifically asked me to test and the MiniArch one. The one you asked me to try throws a DRAM error, while the MiniArch image actually boots — maybe because it’s configured for eMCP. log_miniarch.txt log_armbian_unofficial.txt

Hello everyone, I've already managed to identify and work with a few TV box models, but I'm currently facing difficulties with a model that uses the IK316 SoC. I've attached photos of the board and some of its components, as well as the DTS file I extracted from this model. Could anyone help me figure out how to proceed? I tried adapting the original DTB to work with an Armbian image, but I believe I'm making mistakes in this step. So far, I've accessed the device via UART using a TTL adapter. Using sudo, I was able to dump the Android image and then extract the DTB file using Python. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! 01_dtbdump_,sun50iw9.dts
