but that a good sign that the box get a ip address by dhcp , than its online , do you use the latest one from first page or my older ones from google drive ( 2023 and befor dont have ssh active)

 

there should be no diffirent mac and ip address because they use same hardware

Android (7.1, 8.1, 10).

android 8.1 possible but 10 i thing its a fake 7.1 , Android mostly only poor patch together for exact one box i have many bad exp with port a android (also from same main cpu) to another box

 

all android and linux are config by dtb files , there are the information for kernel wich memory and voltage and many other stuff , ( this box have 3 diffirent memory system nand flash, emmc and eMCP flash) so a wrong dtb could be a non start box

also in last time many box have problems with hdmi port an start without display but its than maybe possible to start ssh from network lan port of this box

 

maybe also fake rk3228 cpu you tool also report a s905w chip , we have see sold as h6 ,print as amlogic at android  and inside a motorola cpu

i've explore all rk322x options but no sucesfull.

thats weird because ssv6051 is a know hardware for this box , when no led-config work than we need a dtb/dtbo of orginal android from this box

 

else, maybe you can try LibreElec and look if is found there than we have idee whats wrong --> or maybe a bad chip or fake chip

Did you try the LED-Config settings , like we multiple times tell that led-config also switch Wifi-enable pin to diffirent settings or ports  ,

 

be aware that there are so many rk322x box and other box around , with so many cheap and creepy hardware also fake and misleading prints on chip and reycling hardware

there any guide to install armbian directly in the sd card without touching th

like multitool

burn it with image writer direkt the armbian.img to sd card and ok , after first boot it resize automatic to full card , like also multitool do

 

[CSC Armbian for RK322x TV box boards]

@Mr-TNTplease can you send some picture of board ,

 

there are 2 boards with problem first wherer the right LED-Config has to been set with ssh after flash per LAN , the secound has a close bootloader which need a diffirent OPTEE area wich need to be flash seperatly

 

overall normaly when sd-card boot work than  later it should also boot from that , yyou can also flash armbian direct to sdcard and also try to boot from sdcard maybe as short term solution

memory micron chp id that even micron dont know

wifi chips from iphone that was reused

 

maybe you flash a rk322x bootloader and its old rk30xx chip or newer rk33xx chip ( maybe thats why uboot from 2024

there is no 4GB version of rk3228 you mean 4giB or 1GB Ram

 

because of uboot from 2024 maybe still a closed bootloader , normally every bricked box still boot from usb or sdcard ( like on page one there is no real soft brick , only hard brick of memory chip fail)

why this , i thing most of usb wifi adapter ( WIFI N or AC at 2.4GHZ ) are realtek 81xx or some RTK88xx , that are good support and already inside this armbian ,also some Broadcom USB things .

 

 

 

 

please be arware most of 5GHZ WIFI AC ( dual Mode) are not as good supported at linux

Does anyone know how to have Armbian / Multitool  for RK3228 / RK3228H or if it is compatible with any jock tutorial?

normally all are compatible but there are no 3228H , there is 3328A and 3228B and 3229 (all same )

but like we say always there are so many creepy box outside with so many variant hardware and HW quality there are always some issue . you can follow the tutorials

'm using balenaEtcher to burn the multitool image into a flash drive, but it ends with a partition of about 396MB. 
The linux image is about ~900MB uncompressed

 two methods ,

1. boot image first than automatic resize to bigger size ( most of the drive) , than put your image on card

 

2. use the compressed image of armbian on the sd card , the multotool also can use zip and tar and tar.xz and tar.gz

By the way, is there a way of making it boot from SD card? Armbian takes a long time to boot from the eemc it seems.

wirte the armbian image to SD Card and than insert and start , than it should boot from SD card like the multitool

 

i had nowadays 4 of this box, one old AMlogic s802 ( over 5 years in use with armbian scan and printserver) ) 1 xrk322x that work out of the box with armbian , one rk322x with resolder wifi from wired china chip to rtl8723ds , and now a rk3328 with android ( sadly sd card is on wrong sdio port)

[CSC Armbian for RK322x TV box boards]

BCM433x are normally good supported , do have rk322x-config and setup the right led config its help also with wifi enable signal

Now Armbian boot from uSD, but no WiFi,

Please can you be more clear did armbian boot befor without hdmi but with wifi ?

or only android had wifi ?

 

did you have a bootlog or dmesg with

dmesg | grep 8723

or

dmesg | sdio ; maybe dmesg | grep - i 8723

 

 

if this is positiv than only a driver issue , else also DTS/DTB maybe dont activate the wifi sdio

The only thing I may think about is a flag somewhere on the filesystem that is checked by the script and avoids the real bootloader upgrade.

When a script is possible than uENV.txt should be the best point , also in thinging of rk322x-config where a question for user can be implement 

 

my thought was more that we support Multitool with 2 small xz files extractet  and from 24.xx image and 21.01.01 image ( maybe later get update in newer  multitool version) , and when he has problem he can use a new item point where the bootloader get write like the script above

 

 

 

 

#!/bin/bash

set -e

# Path
UENV_FILE="/boot/uENV.txt"

# read variable out of uENV
UPGRADEBOOT=$(grep -Po '(?<=Upgradeboot=)\d' "$UENV_FILE" || true) 
#or this maybe better 
UPGRADEBOOT=$(grep -Po '(?<=Upgradeboot=)\d' "$UENV_FILE" || echo "1")

# Proof, Upgradeboot=0 
if [ "$UPGRADEBOOT" -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "Upgradeboot is deactive, Installation abort." >&2

which seems to be more compatible, but we lose DDR clock scaling - that increases a lot the general performances - and virtual poweroff from the closed source rockchip Trust OS. Which one to choose?

thats maybe a point which be can handle by multitool where the user has a option point (choose) ,

 

when have problem be more compatible (perfomance reduce) optee ,

when perfomance (with my incompatiple eg power-off ) flash TrustOS

 

 

maybe with a hint that after a apt-Upgrade procedure has to renew

When we now see thats is a moreover need part maybe it is also a good idea to integrate a point in Multitool where a this 2MB part is flash to emmc or nand to replace the bootloader from normal Armbian image

Every time booting process stops and every time on different point despite of so many reboots, and after a minute the box turns off.

thats look like a power or thermal problem maybe , did you managed to try (sdcard or usb) with cpu-stability to overlays= line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt

or verbosity=7 and look in the Serial log maybe still always same step where it break

 

hope you have a serial adapter at the box

Maybe this link is interesting. I can desolder the memory chip, make a connection

to clock and resolder it, (balling) I have the materials for that like solderstation and

mask's.

but thats tooo much

 

too much thermal stress for chip and so on ....

 

also the maskrom mode is more to get into SD/USB boot when you have a close bootloader or when you need to flash from pc , there you short that pin shortly only to say cpu internal loader use alternate drive , you have to release the short direct after boot to use the emmc and format it

 

please look if you can boot still from usb/sd card , please dont use usb sdcard reader only direkt sd card

 

 

[CSC Armbian for RK322x TV box boards]

HI @audio kees

 

first of all do you have also Ram chips at underside of the board , else i would say that you have a eMCP ( emmc + ram combination) , eMCP are now possible with multitool and armbian but sometimes instable outside android

 

for the brick , you dont need the clock under the chip , also possible to GND the clock at a resistor or test point , sometimes also at the pad for NAND  on right side of your picture is possible

but self with brick memory a boot from SD-Card or USB should always possible
