4timepi

Hi Is there any chance to force OrangePi PC to use 1920x1200 resolution? There's no such mode in h3disp. I tried to modify h3disp script but no luck. 1080p60 -d works well, but it's wrong aspect ratio. Please help.

Thanks. Works great. Anyone know how to access GPIO on OrangePi Zero with OpenWrt?

(My device not trying to boot from USB, only from SD card) When I try this image (LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-8.0.0_20161206.img) on SDcard looks like it almost boot. I'm getting this message on screen:

Bad news. My boxes provide no UART output. Listened while full boot to Android, to LibreELEC, recovery, SD boot try. 100% good converter, settings and pinout and absolutely no echo. Is it end of the story? Or I could do anything more to try to boot your image? Really like to use Armbian on my M8.

Ok thanks, I've got it. We guessed pinouts right. I'll try to UART today my both M8 boxes. Hope to finally get output!

What do you mean? To try MXIII dtb? I even found this: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=581926&view=findpost&p=39795939 Looks like it's the same board with described UART pinout. Unfortunately links are dead.

@zador.blood.stained Sorry but I don't know how to hide attachments into spoiler It's strange version of M8 board - HLSX M8 V2_0 20140918 cannot find any pinouts on forums.

Sorry but I cannot UART my device. To be sure I tried USB converter with my old TPLink router and I can listen output without problems. No changes to go any further without UART? Maybe somebody could help me recognize UART pinout based on path layout? I'm attaching high res pictures of my M8 mobo. Looks like 1 is GND, 2/3 is TX/RX and 4 is VCC isn't it?

There's no description on the back. Yes, square contacts (1) is definitely GND. Don't know why there is 3V on both 3 and 4 contacts. I'm solderd GND to (1) and tried (2),(3),(4) in all combination to TX / RX. Don't know why cannot connect. I will solder connector and make more tries tomorrow afternoon. Thanks for helping me.

2. Looks like you're right. Every time I power on box with SD card (prepared from your image) I'm not getting to android but this screen shows: Heres dbd and dbt extracted from my working android (meson8_m8_2GB.zip). Also tried yours. But I got attached screen or reboot loops. Moreover I can't get UART to work. Tried all GND RX TX combination with 9600 and 115200 baud. Can't find my UART pinout (it's different from that one I found on web) My UART connector Sorry for images quality

OK, I found it. Unfortunately every time I try to apply Universal Multiboot (Update aml_autoscript.zip in recovery mode) I get this errors: E: footer is wrong E: signature verification failed Installation aborted Tried both SD and USB, different mediums, different partitions sizes, SD Formatter and always "footer is wrong". Edit: I upgraded recovery to TWRP 2.8.7.0, but heres flashing aml_autoscript.zip says Failed. Edit2: I flashed back to Android to try with UPDATE&BACKUP app. Unfortunately also not working. With USB it restarts and says footer is wrong, with SD it restarts to black screen. Tried UBS 1/2/4 GB, SD 2GB/16GB with written on them uboot_32Mb_20161122.img via Win32DiskImager. Is there any way to apply your multiboot manually via UART?

Don't understand this point. "to activate the multiboot". Activation will happen automatically after inserting this prepared SD card and power on? Or I need to do something else. Thanks I will try it today.

I haven't done any steps to activate multi-boot on my box because I don't event know how to start. Maybe you have some guide? I brought my M8 with stock Android and then flashed it via SD card (recovery, toothpick) into LibreELEC. And for now I'm here. I have serial cable so I will be able to access UART console.

Hi everyone @balbes150 thank you so much for your images. I'd like to try your builds on my 2GB M8 box (S802). Is it possible to write your image into NAND? I don't know how to activate multiboot. Now I'm working on LibreELEC installed into NAND.
