Hey,I'm using Lg 19M38A 18.5 inch monitor .when I plug in my orange pi , only monitor shows the booting process and then the black screen up .how can I fix this problem?

Hello, I recently installed Armbian 5.85 legacy on my new Orange Pi Lite in order to try out my new Orange Pi camera, but it's not being recognized at all, even after following the instructions in this topic: I already tried doing the following (as root) unsuccessfully (no errors returned, but still can't detect camera): sunxi-pio -m "PG11<1><0><1><1>" #DOVDD sunxi-pio -m "PE15<1><0><1><0>" #Power_Down sunxi-pio -m "PE14<1><0><1><1>" #reset modprobe gc2035 modprobe vfe_v4l2 Here's the output of lsusb: Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Unfortunately, Armbian 5.20 is no longer available, so I can't try that unless I can compile it from source.

Hi, I try to connect Orangepi lite to SIM800l module. I don't have any response on AT commands. I checked the module with Arduino and it works. So I connected Arduino and Orangepi and I can send messages from Arduino to Orangepi, but I can't get any message from Orangepi to Arduino. 1, On Orangepi I allowed UART3 via editing /boot/script.bin [uart3] uart_used = 1 uart_port = 3 uart_type = 4 uart_tx = port:PA13<3><1><default><default> uart_rx = port:PA14<3><1><default><default> uart_rts = port:PA15<3><1><default><default> uart_cts = port:PA16<3><1><default><default> 2, I didn't do anything with GPIO definitions, because I didn't find any such pin definitions in the /boot/script.bin. 3, The physical connection of pins (rx->tx, tx->rx) should be fine. I tried to swith them either. 4, For reading the port I use this simple script.. import serial serport = serial.Serial("/dev/ttyS3", 9600, timeout=1) while True: while serport.inWaiting() > 0: c = serport.read() print(c) As I've already mentioned, it can read messages from Arduino serial monitor. 5, For writing to the port I use this one... import serial serport = serial.Serial("/dev/ttyS3", 9600, timeout=1) while True: txt = raw_input("Type something: ") serport.write(txt) No message gets to Arduino monitor.... Any clue? Thank you, Mapek

Hi, I guess this question depends on knowing the OPi Lite hardware reset button capabilities before being able to answer the following question. but here goes: Does anyone know if the OPi Lite button can be scripted/coded to not only execute a shutdown or reboot command but to do both? So, say, a single short press would gracefully reboot the OS while a long press (hold for, say, 4 seconds) would perform a shutdown? Thanks!

I soldered the two wires to my OPi Lite, running Armbian 5.75 stable. I was only able to listen noise. Already tested to configurate /etc/asound.conf and alsa volume. Can you help me? Thanks.

Hello, I'm running a OPI Lite with debian jessie, All works fine until i have to reboot, and that happens quiet often while testing software. AFTER the boot i'm not able to reach the OPI via SSH, because the eth0 is activated ...and has a 169.x.x.x ip adress... On the OPI Lite i can ONLY discover WIFI and no eth0 connector...So i go into the "nmtui" tool and "disactivate" the eth0... Than i have access again via the wifi to my OPI lite. How can i completely disable the eth0, that only WIFI connects to my network? I didn't find about this behavior on the web, anyone else have that problem? Kind regards from Hans F4VSJ

Hi. Recently i upgraded to Armbian_5.65_Orangepilite_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78 and i have two problems. I can not read the thermal zones properly with neither of those: cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp cat /etc/armbianmonitor/datasources/soctemp because i have results like "30371". But when the system starts the correct temperature is displayed: Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.20-sunxi System load: 0.07 0.15 0.10 Up time: 10 min Memory usage: 29 % of 493MB IP: 192.168.1.46 CPU temp: 33°C Usage of /: 10% of 15G and with armbianmonitor too: Time CPU load %cpu %sys %usr %nice %io %irq CPU C.St. 17:39:34: 1200MHz 0.06 3% 1% 1% 0% 0% 0% 34.6°C 0/15 17:39:39: 480MHz 0.06 1% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 31.5°C 0/15 17:39:45: 480MHz 0.13 4% 3% 0% 0% 0% 0% 31.8°C 0/15 My second problem is that my DS18B20 sonda does not work anymore. In /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf i have: w1-sunxi w1-gpio w1-therm but there is nothing in /sys/bus/w1/devices/ is there any changes in this new version? I check the forum but i does not found anything. Any iddeas? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I moved from Jessie to Stretch. On Jessie i looked under a scope and generated SCK (Orange Pi Lite is Master) is clean. However, after i switch to Stretch, my SPI Slave doesn't work anymore and further investigation reviews that it has similar problem as previous builds that extra clock cycle is generated before data is transfered. The behaviour is exactly similar to following image posted by another forumer but for earlier builds. I am not sure whether any of you experience the same problem.

Hi, Orange PI Lite Armbian 5.25 (latest download available at the time of this post) ARMBIAN 5.25 stable Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i I would like to have the Pi boot without the desktop environment, and either start it manually over SSH. I found a tutorial that said to edit /etc/default/grub and change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" but that file does not apply, so I'm not sure how to impliment this for armbian. I don't want to remove the desktop environment completely, but rather have it bootup to command line only, and if I need the desktop environment log into via SSH and either re-edit "a file" and reboot, or preferably run a command to then start/open the desktop environment. Is this possible? Thank you, Jonathan

Hello All, I have Orange Pi lite which I would like to use as an Airplay device, I have purchased a DAC of the internet and I am trying to connect it via the i2s protocol, According to this tutorial i need to edit the script.bin file to change the I/O configuration of the board. it was mentioned that this file is found in the boot folder, I have been looking and can find this file absolutely no where. What I have done, I downloaded Armbian, written it to a bootable SD card, mounted the SD card and then setup the orange pi via serial communication, I then connected to my WIFI, and set up SSH. I then logged into the device via SSH, i do the apt update and apt upgrade, and this is where I get stuck, I am supposed to find the script.bin file, convert it to a script.fex file and edit it, but it is no where to be seen, Could someone please suggest a solution, Byron

I was wondering if anyone could help with the following issue, We are working on a project utilized with an Orange Pi Lite, ALLWINNER H3 processor and Armbian stretch mainline kernel, Now we are bundled a chip over GPIO, due to the chip frequency we looking for a library or setting file to modify and match I2C frequency with the chip, BR,

I test in Orange pi lite libMali.so, both X11 and framebuffer. Xenial' X11 mode tests by glxgears fps is around 250-270 but Jessie is around 400-420, billiard game that use Opengl is noticable different. For framebuffer, I use retroarch that also noticable slow in Xenial. Anyone know why Xenial libMali is slower than Jessie?

Help me. Armbian view my USB-HID joy in /deb/bus/usb/xxx/xxx, and my device not work in emulator(nes, sega and etc.) I think that my joystick mast be /dev/input/jsx. I find information, that module "joydev" direct the joystick, but "lsmod" show, that "joydev" is not run. Modules "joydev.ko" and "hiddev" is absent in filesystem.

Hi, I'd like to keep the features provided in AX but have my OPi Lite starting and running some software that communicates with a webserver periodically over the internet without the monitor, keyboard and mouse connected unless performing maintenance where remote access isn't appropriate. Is this possible or am I looking at an Armbian Bionic (unsupported) installation?

Hi, I just installed the Armbian_5.35_Orangepilite_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113_desktop.img on my 32GB SD card for my new OPi Lite. On start-up the screen res overlaps the monitor a the top and bottom and the screen text is thin, fuzzy and illegible in places. I can see from the Fine Tuning section of the Armbian documentation and a post by tkaiser that the h3disp utility can be used to modify the script.bin file to permanently update the start-up screen res. I have a NEC MultiSync LCD1830 that's optimal res is 1280 x 1024 at 60 Hz to 76 Hz so naturally I'm trying set this resolution. The monitor is connected to the Opi Lite via a VGA to HDMI adaptor. Since h3disp does not offer this resolution I was wondering if anyone knew what other options there are for achieving my required resolution? I'd also like to know if it is possible to populate the Armbian desktop Display app (available under the System drop-down menu) with more resolution options? The current one shows 1280 x 720, which is obviously not working well. As I am new to Armbian, I presume using sudo with h3disp under a terminal window will allow me to change the resolution from within the GUI? A

I am a former Dietpi singer of praises (aka as Igor calls us evangelists[not anymore] will now refer to it as the other distro or dp I suppose)...until they kyboshed the armbian based dp images for the orange pi series of SBC's...since then...have attempted to go back and forth with varying success (mostly failures) Going to bite the bullet and go full armbian...been battling getting good wifi connectivity (using my Orange Pi Lite boards as octoprint servers for my 3D printers) After building my own hybrid armbian/dp crossbreed distro for Orange Pi Lite and getting it successfully upgraded to their V6.9 well...it started flipping out, so gonna come back to a pure armbian install, after going back and forth...digging thru scripting saw that that other distro disabled the 8189fs driver in /etc/modules, then thru scripting modprobed cfs80122 driver, then did a call for wpa_supplicant with driver option -D nl80211,wext Complete command string from ps -ef shows /sbin/wpa-supplicant -s -B -P /run/wpa-supplicant.wlan.pid -i wlan0 -D nl80211,wext -c /etc/wpa-supplicant/wpa-supplicant.conf After further digging, found this interesting walkthru on instructables so I am posting here Perhaps this is a solution...not the best...but it get's wifi working, and I would bet nowhere near full bandwith thru the wifi, but it is up and talking Just thought I would share if people are also having issues

i have the OPI lite and i have installed Armbian_5.35_Orangepilite_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113_desktop.7z i select my wifi network and type in the password. fews second later a messagebox appears with "Bad Password". i have typed in many times but everytime the same problem. my password has only characters and numbers and is 9 char long. any suggestions to solve my problem?

hi.. after a couple of hours i cant go in to octoprint or ssh in to the device. green led still on but cant wake it up. even with pressing keys on a keyboard.. how can i turn off sleep mode??

Hi all! Has anyone some experience with dts overlays for the mainline kernel 4.14.47? I connected the SHT11 temperature sensor to PA7 and PA8, installed the sht1x.dts overlay from https://github.com/armbian/sunxi-DT-overlays/blob/master/examples/sht1x.dts via "sudo armbian-add-overlay sht15.dts" and afterwards looked via dmesg into the kernel output. That's what my OPLite reports: It is a kernel IO error. The LogicAnalyzer doesn't record any pin toggle. But what am I doing wrong? Do I have to deactivate the pins in GPIO driver? Can someone please help me? As I soldered the SHT11 by myself I modified some RPi userspace code to verify the sensor is OK and it is. It's measuring humidity and temperature from user space. But I'd like to get it working from within the kernel. Thank you very much for your help! BR, K-Meleon

Hello, sorry but my english is not best. I tried to search forum for these problems, but I do not found the answers First problem is that serial console do not work for me, just random symbols, I already tried 3 USB to RS converters with 3.3 V logic, hercules_3-2-8 and putty as SW, with multiple setting, mostly 115200, 8 data bits, no handshake, no parity. Second problem the HDMI do not show useful data either, at least for me there was nothing I can understand as problem. I have 2 orange Pi lite available, so it is probably not a board problem, I tried 2 SD cards and multiple images (desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y and mainline kernel 4.14.y from https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-lite/) I tried multiple power supplies. I record one try, can someone point me to what I can have wrong? Thanks in advance for your answers.

Am running Orange Pi Lite With Debian Stretch uname -a: Linux orangepilite 4.14.18-sunxi #24 SMP Fri Feb 9 16:24:32 CET 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux was wondering what i am missing here ?

I can't get my Orange Pi working... After writing image to a SD card, the system boots up and the green LED lights up. Everything looks ok, until "Starting kernel..." line. After that the screen goes all black or displays artifacts. I tried different HDMI cables but still same issues. I've been trying with 5.25, 5.30, 5.35, 5.38 Ubuntu versions. I found out that the only way to get the system up and running was installing version 5.30, because the system boots with 720p mode. Other builds use 1080p mode. However when I "apt upgrade" the kernel, system boots with 1080p and the issue shows up again. Is there a way to "force" Armbian to use 720p mode by default?
