Hello everyone, first i want to say sorry if this post is not in the right place.
 
I decided to post this in Armbian forum first, because I use it and it was awesome linux distribution with good community and support.
I started as a hobby to write a software about controlling relays, to switch things in my home, like light, water heater, floor heater, etc.
Hardware passes from PicoIP , thru wireless routers and finish on Orange PI, it offers a lot extras for it's price.
 
What I have done so far: (all is in web interface, written from scratch)
You can:
switch on/off relays
switch on/off relays for period of time
schedule relay switching at specific fixed  date/time, or day of week, ....
Host monitor - restart relay if loses connection to specific ip address(es) or host name(s)
Proximity monitor - when you come back at home and your phone connect to WiFI it start doing things that you program it for.
W1 temperature sensors support - can read data and do whatever you program it when temperature reach above or below ............
Digital Gpio Input support- you can connect there whatever you want, from a remote controls, movement detectors ......... everything that  return high or low value
RFID reader support - working in progress
Analog sensors support - working in progress
Email notification system - can sent emai when some sensor is triggered. You can easily create a home security system with a little play of settings.
 
Why I post that, well I decided to make it available to the public, and also looking for testers and people to help me write documentation and develop the project further. So if anyone is interested, contact me
 
 

Thanks for the markings thing confirmation, I finally understood what CME Error 10 meant \o/
I can also confirm that it works smoothly with an Samsung Evo 16G, testing and failing with class 10 Kingston and Sandisk in 8gb and 16gb.
For IMEI, AT+EGMR seems to do the trick. Use at own risk, [legal bla bla]... #2c

General public is easy to mislead to backup the project - general public aka kick-starter community is dumb as hell. It's all about marketing. SBC's are still hot stuff and hardware development become ridiculous cheap so it's a great way to make money.
 
As I see you already made it to persuade investors. Why bother developers community, where you don't intent to invest more then few free boards here and there and use our channels for free marketing? BTW: You can run your marketing campaign on your own website or wherever but here you need to ask for permission. I hate ads.
 
Even before your boards become stable (to be used by professionals which is stated in your first line of your marketing appeal) you will probably restart the whole thing with a "new and better" board and hope to catch as many backers as possible. All board manufacturers are using community's current and future contribution in their business models and everyone want's to become next RPi in numbers. This is the only way you don't need to pledge anyone. Until then, we control the game.
 
Free sample? I have a bunch of boards and so do other people who develop and contribute. I don't even think to support your boards without paradigm change toward community. You collected the money for our work and you kept it. What the f*?
 
You are an engineer. It's is not your fault nor responsibility to think about this in such way. Don't take it personally either.

I am able to test SPI successfully with 5.04 release.
Device  used : RFID Reader RC522
 
Here is the steps to followed :
 
1. Connection
 
     Mifare_RC522_RFID  OP One
     MOSI ——————————> pin 19
     MISO ——————————-> pin 21
     SCLK ——————————-> pin 23
     SDA ——————————–> pin 24
     RST ———————————> pin 22
     IRQ ———————————-> NONE
 
2. Check device ls /dev/spidev0.0 ( Armbian 5.04 gives it out of the box)
 
3) Install python dev
     apt-get install python-dev
 
4) Install orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3 Library
      git clone https://github.com/duxingkei33/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3.git
      cd orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3
      python setup.py install
 
5) Install SPI-Py Library
    git clone https://github.com/lthiery/SPI-Py.git
    cd SPI-Py
     python setup.py install
 
6) Install MFRC522-python
     git clone https://github.com/rasplay/MFRC522-python.git
 
7)To read id data:
    cd MFRC522-python
    edit  MFRC522.py and comment out line 108.109.110  and 356( as shown below)
          # GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD)
          #GPIO.setup(22, GPIO.OUT)
          #GPIO.output(self.NRSTPD, 1)
    
           #GPIO.output(self.NRSTPD, 1)
 
        python read.py
