why shouldnt it possible to convert/decompile the .dtb to .dts withbthe command dtc (device tree compiler?)
Maybe for reconverting you have to install the right version of tge kernel-headers?
From my experience, I have done dtb->dts, modifed some code & converted back to dtb using dtc without any ill effects or kernel headers. YMMV

Interesting result! On my A5X max with max 1296 Mhz, I see 330 MB/s normally in desktop mode, but under VNC I see 410 MB/s . Maybe the difference is due to the rate of frequency rampup from 600 Mhz to 1296 Mhz. I am using the default MX10 dtb on a 4.4.154 kernel.
Yes indeed. I don't think it is the rampup because when I cpufreq-set to fix at 1.51Ghz I still get the same result. I am looking for ways to make the desktop as fluid as on the S912 and memory speed is perhaps the answer. The media testing script didn't do it for me.

Version 5.72 update 20190123 (kernel 4.4 and 5.0).
On SERVER NEXT images (with kernel 5.0), support for DTB for MX10 has been added, and the system can be managed via SSH.Armbian_5.72_Rk3328-tv_Ubuntu_bionic_default_4.4.154_desktop_20190123
Boots to desktop with rk3328_evb.dtb but max cpu freq only 1.30GHz
with rk3328_evb.dtb taken from 4.4.167 image and MAX_SPEED=1512000 in /etc/default/cpufrequtils, can reach 1.51Ghz
Further testing ongoing...
Memory speed testing with
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/testfile bs=1M count=1000
rk3328: 352 MB/s
s912: 566 MB/s
need to find dram speed setting

Armbian_5.72_Aml-s912_Ubuntu_bionic_default_4.20.2_desktop_20190124
Boots to desktop. eth0 up no wifi no bluetooth
Desktop still smooth
:-) Thanks @balbes150

Anyone here tried this?
https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/blob/master/recipes/overclocking.md
I've added opp-1392 & opp-1512 to rk3328-evb.dtb and running it at the moment. Governor set ondemand, can hit 1.39GHz not so much 1.51GHz. Let's see if anything blows up
Got it up to 1.51Ghz. Just doesn't feel as smooth as the s912. I guess octacore beats quadcore

Did you edit "/etc/default/cpufrequtils"?
No. MAX_SPEED=1510000 was already in there.
Doing cpufreq-set -f 1.51GHz did not push to 1.5GHz either, only to 1.39Ghz
EDIT: changed MAX_SPEED=1510000 to MAX_SPEED=1512000 then can hit 1.51GHz

Only the reason is not in the core. By the way, with the kernel 4.4.154 by my tests, the system works faster with video. Perhaps because it uses sources from LE (where working with video is better optimized).
This seems to run much better. Noticed that cpu frequencies 1.39GHz and 1.51Ghz are available, Although cpufreq-info reports that hardware limits: 408 MHz - 1.51 GHz, still can't hit 1.51GHz though

Yes, from now on images for S905 and S912 will be released separately. So far, there are almost no differences between them. The only difference is the default DTB. Now in the images S912 specified a dtb to the VIM2 and you can try to run the image to S912. This is preparing to move to HW support. s905 and s912 use different variants of HW LIMA or PANFROST.
Righto. s912 desktop running well so far on my T95Z Plus. Problem with usb fixed by using powered hdd docking. Great job :-)
-
@balbes150: I see 20190122 now have separate s905 and s912 images. Is there a list of differences between the two?

I've enabled USB debugging and Internet ADB in developer options within TVBOX setup.
Sorry if it is obvious, but how do I do this? Thanks.

The new version 5.71 20190118.
Updated kernel to 4.20.2.New kernel, thanks :-)
Working nicely on my BM8 Pro - s912 2gb ram & T95Z Plus - s912 3gb ram.
Desktop fluid, firefox streaming video ok

MVR9 -> rk3328-box-trn9.dtb
MX10 -> rk3328-mx10.dtb
Just change the comment on the desired line:) by the way, MVR9 works with the file for MX10 (but no LAN Wifi BT). On the contrary-does not work, because MVR9 uses the best iron (similar to Renegade).
Perhaps the dtb from MVR9 will also work on Renegade
https://github.com/150balbes/Build-Armbian/blob/master/packages/bsp/rk3328-tv/extlinux.conf
rk3328-box-trn9.dtb does not boot my box. Let me try the 5.71 image and see whether its any better
UPDATE: 5.71: rk3328-mx10.dtb, rk3328-evb.dtb boots to desktop, rk3328-box-trn9.dtb no
with armsoc xorg. glxgears 160 FPS, compositor off
Firefox video streaming some OK some not, with compositor offDesktop sluggish

So far it is only a guess and there are no files.
Which dtb do you use?

I have for MVR9, browser and other programs (used in the script) are noticeably better than the MX10 (it's the same A5X max). Perhaps the reason is that another dtb is used, without optimization.
I use rk3328-evb.dtb thats in the image. Where can I download this optimised dtb that you speak of?

Testing on A5X Max 4gb ram
ARMBIAN 5.67 user-built Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS 4.4.154-rk3328-tv
Installed System, MPV, Gstreamer, GL4ES and Streaming from media-rk3328_1.0.txz
1. General desktop does not feel any smoother, feels quite laggy

3. Chromium streaming crashes page upon playing

What was it that you need to do to boot into 720p mode? Some bootargs in uEnv.ini perhaps...?

Can you tell me what are you using it for? I plan on getting a 4gb box to run as a docker headless server for home use so I'd like to hear your experience
Currently using it as a general desktop, running quite well although I find the T95Z Plus runs better, so I am switching.

I saw the current prices for RK3328 - they have declined significantly. Now I'm thinking about what model to buy ...
Using an A5X Max, running quite well at the moment although I think I'll switch to the T95Z Plus I just received.

I see. I'll hold off updating then.

Thanks. If I already have ver 20181203 and upgraded via apt, its the same yes?

Have you tired the @balbes150 images?
https://yadi.sk/d/pHxaRAs-tZiei/5.72/S905
Try with meson-g12a-u200.dtb, it might boot but it looks pretty basic at the moment.
I would be interested to know whether they work on the S905X2
