Hi, which image and which dtb file needs for this box
can me send a download link? Thanks!
I used kvim2_android.dtb with same box
I try almost all dbts and only a few dont boot
image used: Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180225.img.xz
if you cant boot in armbian press reset on power boot, like 10 sec
after you will see linux booting
I discover this trick the hard way, after flash a firmware and discover my armbian dont boot anymore
any question feel free to ask, I have lost a free hours with one of that, maybe I can help.
-
Just curiosity
What is the benefits of native Kodi image vs Android version?
Another question if I install my armbian to eMMC its easy to revert to Android simply flashing a oficial firmware?

As I do remember right there was also such "problem" (which is to load the module twice) with the armbian image for the Sunvell R69 (H2 CPU TV Box) - and maybe others...
Hello @guidol
The problem you are talking is about my post about load and reload module?
This is problem is a nightmare to fix.....now its very stable even boot only with power connected and nothing more (ethernet cable off)
Now I can move on with APN and finish my docker/springboot headless server
(That is finished with mongodb Arm64v8 container
If someone have interest in headless server say, I can create a topic from start to finish.
Or I can upload the finish image version, no problem (AlfaWise H96 Pro+)
Once again thanks to all PPL envolve in Armbian and in Linux too

Fix Boot Wifi with some hacks and a Init.d Script
The Problem : Cant boot with Wifi Kernel Module
After many hours of try and fail (almost fail),
I resolve the problem of Boot with Wifi with lots of pacience and despair,
and the precious help of @balbes150 and @guidol, and Armbian ForumThe above "solution works" with
+ AlfaWise H96 Pro+ and
+ 3.14 Kernel Based` image (thank for the tip @balbes150) > Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180225.img.xz,
belive me its not pretty/elegant solution, is more a despair solution........First remove all modules from `/etc/modules` to leave it initialization for `init.d` script clean,
I leave the comments, just has a note of my adventure in /etc/modules file LOL
$ cat /etc/modules #aml_nftl_dev #wifi_dummy #cfg80211 #dhd #wlan
Next Create a `init.d` hacked script, with some magic and optimized sleeps, without that sleep times or with lower times it wont work,
Its very strange, I must load and unload module, and reload again, but its seems the only way to put this working,
I know its too strange, and hard to find, maybe someone has a better ways, I believe with some knowledge its easy,Why its working only that way?
don't ask me why, I don't care, for me its not pretty, but its ugly and working,
I'm happy with it, who cares, I don't waste more time for an elegant and pretty solution......move on.....the `init.d` script
$ sudo nano /etc/init.d/wlan
#! /bin/sh # /etc/init.d/wlan # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: wlan # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: AlfaWise H96 Pro+ Wireless Boot Script # Description: This file should be used to construct scripts to be # placed in /etc/init.d. This example start a # single forking daemon capable of writing a pid # file. To get other behavoirs, implemend # do_start(), do_stop() or other functions to # override the defaults in /lib/init/init-d-script. ### END INIT INFO # Some things that run always touch /var/lock/wlan # Carry out specific functions when asked to by the system case "$1" in start) echo "Starting Wlan Script" echo "modprobe wlan" /sbin/modprobe wlan echo "modprobe wlan -r in 28sec..." sleep 28 /sbin/modprobe wlan -r echo "modprobe lan in 28sec..." sleep 28 echo "modprobe wlan..." /sbin/modprobe wlan ;; stop) echo "Stopping script wlan" /sbin/modprobe wlan -r ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/wlan {start|stop}" exit 1 ;; esac exit 0
After boot inspect unload/load driver with
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep wlan
Install systemd service
$ sudo systemctl enable wlan
reboot to test if work
$ sudo reboot
in other pc ping the wifi ip and wait it responds without do anything, here it starts respond after 2minutes, not bad since reboot, shutdown and boot
I tested with a lots of combinations, modules, timers, I don't know the things I try,
but for me it only work that way on boot, maybe someone with knowledge can explain why this driver don't boot, or boot in a state that is faulty, and useless, and must be up, down and up again with this sleep times......some info after login
$ lsmod Module Size Used by wlan 3435325 0 zram 8953 8 cfg80211 415017 1 wlan ch341 5434 0
I anybody has questions, say so
thanks to all -

1. Wi Fi activation can take up to 5-7 minutes after the command is executed.
2. you can use systemd to run your command (this works better on new systems).
Thanks @balbes150 I will try it
I wait for more than 10minutes, I m working on my job, and sometimes I go to shell and try something.....
I will try systemd too, I report has ASAPUPDATED: Forget to say that my init.d scripts is a systemd service, but thanks for the tip
Thanks for suports m8s
UPDATE : I Disable docker and problem continues, Juts in case its docker delay something, or interfer with modules
I Leave it disabled until problem is solved -
1 hour ago, guidol said:
Maybe init.d is to early in the boot process?
the /etc/rc.local is - as I know - at the end of the boot process and maybe the devices are ready at this point for modprobe?
You could try in the /etc/rc.local (before the exit 0 - which is needed)modprobe wlan 2>/dev/null #and modprobe wlan -r 2>/dev/null exit 0
thanks @guidol
trying right now after disable init.d script
sudo cat /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. #/boot/fan.sh & modprobe wlan 2>/dev/null exit 0
I leave feed back asap
UPDATE
Same problem, it wont work

Hello @balbes150
Yesterday I waste 3 hours "fighting" with boot problem with "modprobe wlan" on boot, but not luck
I Try hard with cronjobs and init.d services
1) Cron jobs wont work, even a with a simple test echo like
@reboot echo 123 > /tmp/foobar
2) Init.d Scripts works, when boot I can use sleep, echos andmodprobe wlan #and modprobe wlan -r
I try many diferent combinations, with delays/sleep, after 60 sec and 120sec to execute the simple modprobe wlan that makes the wifi working
but no luck yet, it is strange that It wont work, only if I launch the command in shell, this way it always work!!!!
What is the diference from init.d script to launch manually, can you give some tip/insight?
The strange is that I tail my init.d script log file, watching modprobe load and unload, and it is see in syslog
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep wlan
I see it load and unload kerner module, with many diferent combinations
but no hope it wont work........
but if I go to the shell and launch the same command has in init.d script t always work
sudo modprobe wlan
init.d script
#! /bin/sh # /etc/init.d/wlan # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: wlan # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Example initscript # Description: This file should be used to construct scripts to be.... ### END INIT INFO # Some things that run always touch /var/lock/wlan # Carry out specific functions when asked to by the system case "$1" in start) /bin/echo "Starting script wlan" >> /tmp/wlan.log sleep 60 echo "Starting load wlan" >> /tmp/wlan.log /sbin/modprobe wlan #/sbin/modprobe wlan -r && sleep 60 && /sbin/modprobe wlan echo "finish load module" >> /tmp/wlan.log ;; stop) echo "Stopping script wlan" /bin/echo $(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') >> /tmp/stop.log /sbin/modprobe wlan -r ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/wlan {start|stop}" exit 1 ;; esac exit 0
Thanks @balbes150
@balbes150 If you cant help, or dont have time, no problem at all,
just say, and I wont ask for help anymore,
this way Im only post unusefull/unsolved stuff in this post
Its not a easy problem to solve, for me -

I never install a armbian with windowsmanager, I only install console/headless server version, Its all I need for my backend projects

@balbes150 can you helpevme one more time?
I have follow your instructions, but it wont work, I report it in above posts,
I try to put modprobe wlan in a root cronjob with @reboot but it dont work.....WiFi module is not initialized, I try a echo 123 > /tmp/123 in cronjob and it wont work too
Is the @reboot cron working on the armbian ?
Do you have any idea how can I resolve this problem on midprobe boot without manually type modprobe?
this is far from aceptable for any solid wifi setup. If it work with cronjob, for me is almost perfect
Thanks in advance...
I dont have time to try other boot alternatives, maybe tomorrow I have time to explore other ways. But wifi is working and that is awesome. Thanks to you @balbes150

inside of sdcard you have some folders like dtb, dtb-3.14.29, dtb-3.14.29.old, this folders has the dtbs files
you must copy one of that files to the root of sdcard but name it has dtb.img
tip: copy one that works with your device, if you know what file is, else try one by one
Im new here, and try to help with my limited knowledge of Armbian

$ sudo modprobe cfg80211 $ sudo modprobe dhd modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dhd': No such device
Maybe someone can help, I try hard, but it seems without some help I'm trapped here, cant use WiFi card
update: I dont have tried all the DTBs......only when I have a monitor and keyboard connected to box, currently my only have ssh
Thanks to all

Hardware: AlfaWise H96 Pro+

SOC: Amlogic S912
First thanks to all the people evolved in this great project
This is my first post here, I'm a newer armbian user
I'm using it has a headless server for my projects with docker and mongodb and my spring boot/aurelia framework projects,
and it works like a real server, without lags at all, simple awesome , my main objective is put my solutions in a economic/cheaper server
I already do that in raspberry pi 3, but I miss one important part that is use it has a Access Point with HostAPD like in RPI
Next the problem:
I Have problems configure Wifi card,
I cant use Wifi at all, and dont have wlan0
mario@amlogic:~$ dmesg | grep wlan0 mario@amlogic:~$ dmesg | grep wifi [ 1.024140] wifi: power_on_pin_OD = 0; [ 1.024254] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_dev_probe] no power_on_pin2 [ 1.024460] aml_wifi wifi: [pwm_double_channel_conf_dt] wifi pwm dt ok [ 1.024604] aml_wifi wifi: [pwm_double_channel_conf] wifi pwm conf ok [ 1.024737] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_dev_probe] interrupt_pin=97 [ 1.024855] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_dev_probe] irq_num=0, irq_trigger_type=1 [ 1.024992] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_dev_probe] power_on_pin=96 [ 1.025108] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_dev_probe] clock_32k_pin=0 [ 1.025595] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_setup_dt] wifi_setup_dt [ 1.025757] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_setup_dt] irq num is:(126) [ 1.025874] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_setup_dt] interrupt_pin(97) [ 1.026007] aml_wifi wifi: [wifi_setup_dt] power_on_pin(96) [ 4.195633] efusekeyname: mac_wifi offset: 24 size: 12
I try everything that I remember, read a lot here in this post about wifi,
but I dont even know if my alfawise is working with wifi
I try all the DTBs from this armbian release one by one,
with modprobe, but nothing

I try to follow this post https://forum.armbian.com/topic/2138-armbian-for-amlogic-s912/?page=19&tab=comments#comment-49228
added wifi_dummy to /etc/modules
I even get driver from android firmware SCV4-Test1-Blue-PCB-H96ProPlus.zip
(the link to cfg80211 driver from above post is broken)
copied to /lib/modules/4.9.40/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
and try to use modprobe on it like explained in above post
sudo modprobe cfg80211 modprobe dhd modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dhd': No such device
but It never works, It seems I need help......i'm a bit lost now, without any wise idea of how I can configure wifi in this device
Or maybe I'm doing something stupid, or don't even know how to do it (I bet on this horse LOL)
The other problem is I cant backup my /dev/mmcblk0
always have the error `error reading '/dev/mmcblk0': Input/output error`
try many times, even try to use hard-disk and samba share but the problem is reading the mmcblk0
it always fail!
I try to backup, because I like to install armbian on mmcblk0
I dont need android, maybe in a near future, or when I like to sell it
$ sudo ddbr DO YOU WANT TO BACKUP OR RESTORE ? BACKUP=(b) RESTORE=(r) b AVAILABLE DEVICES: mmcblk0 sda1 sda2 YOU ARE RUNNING xenial FROM sda2 INTERNAL EMMC IS: mmcblk0 SIZE: 30535680 ROOT (sda2) FREE SPACE IS: 74266064 DO YOU WANT COMPRESSION ?

Can you explain what is "Don't work". Can be many things. What do you mean? It won't boot? If so read above posts, in one of them I mention a tip about boot it for first time....
