  1. Erase flash from multitool isn't work.
    After reboot android still boots. 

     

    I was able to boot armbian from a flash drive, but first I need to boot MXQ with the sd card (multitool) and the flash drive (armbian) inserted together. After a second, I remove sd card (multitool) and armbian boots from pendrive.

     

    /edit

    Succesfull install armbian on emmc using dd command.
    Big Thx for you boys :D

    The command would be:

    dd if=armbian.img of=/dev/mmcblk2 bs=512k oflag=direct status=progress

    Indeed change armbian.img with the name of your image (or rename the image as well).

    Thank you for the hint.
    I think libreelec is not seeing the internal memory.
    I see "mmcblk0" (2 partitions) - that's the sd card (libreelec)
    And "sda" - is a flash drive (there I have an armbian.img image)

    I guess in some convoluted way you could do it, but actually you need to enable SSH first in libreelec and you can do that only using the GUI, which is not available for you as long as HDMI does not work on your board

    No. It is possible without the GUI. You can enable it in the kernel settings.

    I run libreelec with ssh enabled on this box. 

    I upload dmesg.log from libreelec in an earlier post.

  4. I honestly don't need an image over hdmi.
    A working armbian ssh and LAN is enough for me.

    Is there any other way to install armbian than multitool?
    Can multitool work without graphical mode for example via ssh?
    Is it possible to run armbian from SD card like on AMLogic?
    Is it possible to use libreelec with ssh to install armbian?

  5. I have MXQ on S805 (Originally Android 4.4)
    I use Armbian (5.37 debian stretch 3.10.99 server) as Pi-Hole DNS server.
    It runs from SD card stably for 3 years.

    I wonder if there is any sense to upgrade armbian to higher version. Are newer versions more efficient or stable?

    Which version is the latest for S805.

     

    I think that android 4.4 is not useful anymore so I'm thinking about installing on internal memory.
    Do I understand correctly that it is enough to run install.sh script in root homedir?

    If the led is blinking, multitool booted. If led is steady, multitool didn't boot.

    Can't say anything more about without logs (serial log would be ideal) or other infos.

    Surely changing dtb won't help.

     

    Yes. Red lights and yellow blinking but no video on hdmi.

    I try with libreELEC with different .img - same problem (no video) but I know that KODI starts up because the BOX gets an IP address using (Alfawise A8, RK3228B, DDR2) .img and (MXQ 4K Pro, RK3228A, DDR3) .img

    So i think it is RK3228x.

     

    How or what can I extract the needed information from a running android?
    Only via otg usb cable?
    Any application for android?

  7. Hello.
    I own an MQX (S805). I run amrbian with pi-hole on it - works great.

     

    I got an MXQ PRO 4K (rk322x) and I also want to have amrbian on it. The system info says it is android 10.1... but KODI 17.6 says it's android 7.1.2

    I have a sticker on my motherboard:
    R29-MXQ-LP3

     

    and the writing on the board:
    R29_MXQ_LP3_V2.3_00908

     

    Multitool - not sure if it starts - no picture.
    I tried with other .dtb files pulled from Amrbian Buster - no image.

    Any suggestions please?

  8. Hi.

    I have got "all black" MXQ (OTT MXQ) 

    AM_MXQ_A 20150825 - on board

    MXQ 2016-1-6 1G+8G - on sticker

     

    I am using Armbian_5.32_S805_Ubuntu_xenial_3.10.33_mate_20170821 and it works with meson8b_m200_1G dtb version (other not tested).

    It works fine but CPU freq. stand on 792MHz (no more no less) also in performance mode. YT not playable. Video test does not work smoothly.

    Any solution?
