I’m trying to use a 3.5 LCD (waveshare clone) with ILI9486 + XPT2046 with my orange pi zero. My display is like this. I installed both Debian_buster_next_4.19.59 and Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.19.57 and I followed many guides in here with no success. I edited armbianEnv.txt and added these: overlays=spi-spidev spi-add-cs1 param_spidev_spi_bus=1 param_spidev_spi_cs=1 After that I ran this sudo modprobe fbtft_device custom name=fb_ili9486 gpios=dc:18,reset:2 speed=16000000 busnum=1 rotate=90 and didn’t get any error. I figured that the reset & DC pins on orange pi zero are pin22(GPIO2) and pin18(GPIO18) but I’m not 100% sure about these. With dmesg I see these: [ 179.174013] fbtft: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned. [ 179.181645] fbtft_device: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.

How could I debug the issue?

I am experimenting with a cheap ILI9341 screen and mi OrangePi Zero LTS https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832431328471.html I found these recent instructions to be able to display graphics here: https://ryjelsum.me/homelab/xpt2046-ili9341-opi-zero/ with a reference to a previous experience (without mentioning success) https://hackaday.io/project/190371-g-edm/log/217902-first-success-with-armbian-nanopi-and-ili9341-touch and independently, I found these instructions and experiences here: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Allwinner_overlays/ https://forum.armbian.com/topic/27457-connecting-banana-pi-m2-zero-with-ili9341-display-over-spi-on-latest-armbian-image/ <-just found it and it has some success with BananaPi M2 Zero https://tech-de.netlify.app/articles/de547180/index.html https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=782242&st=5060#entry112401076 I connected with wires as shown in instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/28674-text-version-of-orange-pi-zero-pinout/ And the LCD's LED input pin to 3.3V I activated the spi-add-cs1 overlay in arbian-config I copied the dts for opiZ into ~/ili9341/ili9341-touch-double-spi-cs.dts Then, I executed: cd ili9341 armbian-add-overlay ili9341-touch-double-spi-cs.dts Then, I rebooted, and my LCD just looks gray.

Should I downgrade to Linux 6.1.53?

I compiled an environment for an Orange Pi zero using CSC, Edge , Jammy, console server, standard. I didn't change any of the defaults. Things works except for the OrangePi expansion card with dual USB ports. The expansion card USB ports are not recognized. Anyone know what I need to select to get the expansion board working?

I want to completely disable display subsystem on Orange Pi Zero LTS (Debian 12 (Bookworm) minimal/IoT build 1 oct 2024). I blacklisted the GPU modules (lima, gpu_sched, drm_shmem_helper), but i can't find a way to disable sun4i-drm. Is there a way to disable it completely w/o recompiling the kernel?

Just ran `apt-get dist-upgrade` on my Orange Pi Zero LTS with Debian minimal Armbian, and wireless network is gone (not shown in armbian-config). Tried downgrading to legacy kernel without success. I have not yet tested 24.08 from a fresh Armbian image; I'm probably going to restore previous 24.05 from a saved backup image. Just sharing this issue in case others see the same thing. No errors in dmesg ... $ dmesg | grep xradio [ 12.723829] xradio_wlan mmc1:0001:1: Input buffers: 30 x 1632 bytes [ 12.723867] xradio_wlan mmc1:0001:1: Firmware Label:XR_C01.08.52.58 Jul 19 2018 18:53:57 but wlan0 is unavailable ... $ nmcli device status DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION end0 ethernet connected Wired connection 1 lo loopback connected (externally) lo wlan0 wifi unavailable --

Hi, I think I'm right in saying that this board once had standard support? I noticed it is now community support and the download page lists that there might be Wi-Fi issues. I have this link for previous builds: https://armbian.hosthatch.com/archive/orangepizero/archive/ Is there a way of knowing when standard support stopped and community support started etc? Thanks!

hi all, i had a orange pi zero board that worked fine until yesterday. MY BOARD IS ORANGEPI ZERO (not 2) i upgraded the OS armbian : Linux orangepizero 6.6.31-current-sunxi #1 SMP Fri May 17 10:02:40 UTC 2024 armv7l GNU/Linux the board worked fine until the last reboot in order to test octopi startup, but before this reboot the OS was upgraded and rebooted the issue now is that the wlan0 seems to be always down i do a lot of setup but it still to remain down, i am not a very expert with these board but i am very new with this kind of issue. can anyone help me with the troubleshooting ? i can access the board via LAN (eth0) i can show some details: root@orangepizero:~# lsmod Module Size Used by xradio_wlan 110592 0 mac80211 643072 1 xradio_wlan cfg80211 606208 2 mac80211,xradio_wlan rfkill 20480 2 cfg80211 libarc4 12288 1 mac80211 sun4i_gpadc_iio 12288 0 ch341 16384 1 industrialio 57344 1 sun4i_gpadc_iio usbserial 36864 3 ch341 sun8i_thermal 12288 0 uio_pdrv_genirq 16384 0 uio 16384 1 uio_pdrv_genirq cpufreq_dt 16384 0 usb_f_acm 16384 1 u_serial 20480 3 usb_f_acm g_serial 12288 0 libcomposite 49152 2 g_serial,usb_f_acm ip_tables 20480 0 x_tables 24576 1 ip_tables autofs4 36864 2 pwrseq_simple 12288 1 sunxi 12288 0 phy_generic 16384 2 sunxi ac200_phy 12288 1 root@orangepizero:~# sudo iwlist wlan0 scan wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down root@orangepizero:~# nmcli dev wifi list IN-USE SSID MODE CHAN RATE SIGNAL BARS SECURITY root@orangepizero:~# ifconfig -a .................................................. wlan0: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 0a:5e:7a:3c:fa:2a txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 now i had this error but before was different: root@orangepizero:~# ifup wlan0 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument ifup: failed to bring up wlan0 root@orangepizero:~# rfkill list all 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no the network interfaces was not touched before this issue, yesterday i only upgraded OS , python3 and octopi. i prefer don't reimage the OS..... i observed that the wlan0 MAC changes at every reboot. many thanks i pologize if i posted into orangepi zero 2 section

good morning everyone, I installed Armbian 23.02.2 on orangepizero about a year ago without ever having a problem . Today it suddenly stopped booting and I can't get it to start again and that's what I'm interested in, also possibly to recover internal docker configurations. The orangepizero is powered by a 3A power supply under UPS and properly cooled, if I use the latest release on a new SD it works perfectly, so I think it is not a hardware problem. The SD with Armbian 23.02.2 is not corrupted and I can read every part of it. Does anyone know any tricks to get it running again?

Model Orange pi zero v1.4 OS Armbian_community_24.8.0-trunk.495_Orangepizero_bookworm_current_ 6.6.36_minimal Original IP 192.168.12.115 Having trouble trying to setup Static IP I used the followed example on https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Networking/#minimal-images-networkd /etc/netplan/20-static-ip.yaml it setup OK network: version: 2 renderer: networkd ethernets: end0: # Change this to your ethernet interface addresses: - 192.168.12.65/24 routes: - to: default via: 192.168.12.1 nameservers: addresses: - 1.1.1.1 - 1.0.0.1 sudo chmod 600 /etc/netplan/*.yaml sudo netplan try sudo netplan apply sudo reboot however when I rebooted it revert to the original 192.168.12.115. On check with ip addr

After upgrading from the official version with kernel 6.1 to the CSC version with kernel 6.6 I noticed an increase in CPU temperature of as much as 10 degrees. Is this normal? Honestly, seeing 52 degrees at idle worries me a bit

I have my Orange Pi running for a while on the CLI release of Jammy with kernel version: 6.6.16. It has been working well. I was building another one up and I went to download Armbian and I noticed that OrangePiZero is community supported now (Don't think it was before?). The current version to download says that network issues are expected. I never had this on 6.6.16 so wanted to stay on that. I looked here: https://armbian.hosthatch.com/archive/orangepizero/archive/ But there is only minimal for 6.6.16, all/most others have minimal and CLI (typical, the one I want lol) Is there somewhere else I could find the CLI version of 6.6.16, it definitely used to exist as I have it on another OrangePiZero. Thanks!

I'm working with a Orange Pi zero and a new user to Armbian. I'm working with a Orange Pi Zero LTS(H2). From u-boot: CPU: Allwinner H3 (SUN8I 1680) Model: Xunlong Orange Pi Zero The serial console is working. I'm able to see the kernel and init output, and interact with u-boot. I've tried two Armbian versions and on both the kernel boots but there is no TTY on the serial port, I'm not able to interact with the OS. I see getty is launched, but there is no TTY.

On both I see messages that imply I should have a terminal, but there isn't any response to keypresses. As I mentioned I can run commands in u-boot so this does not appear to be a hardware problem. I have tuned the image to ensure console=serial is set with verbosity=7, but otherwise I'm booting as-imaged. I haven't tried to configure a serial console since before SystemD took over the world so I don't know where to look for the serial settings anymore. Searching the forums for this is returning mostly misconfigured hardware, whereas this looks like a tty configuration problem. This board doesn't have a monitor output, and ethernet does not appear to be working. Is there configuration needed to get a terminal on the serial console?

Hi all, I need to add some packages to Armbian in the build phase. I tried two ways, both failed: 1. Had run through docs (https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_User-Configurations/), and the suggestion is to add a var PACKAGE_LIST_ADDITIONAL in userpatches/lib.config PACKAGE_LIST_ADDITIONAL="$PACKAGE_LIST_ADDITIONAL watchdog modemmanager iptables iptables-persistent dnsmasq bridge-utils iproute2 openvpn" Building the image I get the following error: [🌱] Using user configuration override [ /home/andrea/armbian/build/userpatches/lib.config ] /home/andrea/armbian/build/userpatches/lib.config: line 1: PACKAGE_LIST_ADDITIONAL: readonly variable [💥] Exiting with error 1 [ at /home/andrea/armbian/build/userpatches/lib.config:1 source() --> userpatches/lib.config:1 do_extra_configuration() --> lib/functions/configuration/main-config.sh:352 do_with_logging() --> lib/functions/logging/section-logging.sh:81 do_with_conditional_logging() --> lib/functions/logging/section-logging.sh:111 prep_conf_main_build_single() --> lib/functions/main/config-prepare.sh:34 cli_standard_build_run() --> lib/functions/cli/cli-build.sh:22 armbian_cli_run_command() --> lib/functions/cli/utils-cli.sh:136 cli_entrypoint() --> lib/functions/cli/entrypoint.sh:176 main() --> compile.sh:50 ] [💥] Cleaning up [ please wait for cleanups to finish ] 2.

The topic is no longer new, but I have not found the reason and its solution! If you turn off the power (just pull out the wire) then you can get a non-working system. As I noticed, the files opened at the time of launch are broken. And some files such as /etc/boot/armbianEnv.txt in general, they are recorded with some kind of garbage!!! Because of this, your settings fly off! For example, I use ttys1 and this option is registered armbianEnv.txt , but after the power loss, there is just terrible garbage in this file, as if the memory dump fell there!!! For example, I still use dotnet, so it also breaks down and does not start anymore!! When you try to run dotnet from the command line, you get a bus error! Of course, deleting and reinstalling it solves the problem. You may also get problems with apt! I certainly expected this from windows. But for linux to be somewhat unreliable is a tin and a disappointment!! Why does this happen and how to treat it??? Now I have made a sh script to check the integrity of files and restore them. But these are crutches and a shame for linux!!! Maybe arabian is crooked and unreliable? or is it a disease of all systems??? I must say right away that the SD card is normal! This has been tested on 10 minicomputers. It's the same problem everywhere!

Hello. I have a problem with Orange Pi Zero LTS. I also have an expansion board and the required 3.5-jack cable. I have read many different forums and sites where people have described problems with video signal output. Often there are solutions such as: 1. Editing the file /boot/script.bin But this file does not exist. 2. They also talk about the launch of "tv". You need to add an entry to /etc/modules. But that doesn't work either, since ./tvout doesn't exist. As I understand it, in new versions there is no TV support, but there is no way to download old versions either. The latest version that can be downloaded is 5.59, but it also does not support TV. Some people since ~2019-2020 are wondering when this ability will be returned. I have the following questions: 1. Where can I download a version like 5.25 or older? 2. Or is there another way for Armbian to turn on the video signal? 3. Why did the developers remove this function? 4. And why haven't they brought this function back yet? P.S. Sorry for my english

I have followed this guide and I can boot my Orange Pi Zero from SSD without the need for an SD card inserted. I want to keep a bootable backup for my system in case the SSD gets corrupted. I was thinking to clone my system in a USB stick (just like I did to clone from SD to SSD) and then use rsync once a week to keep everything up to date with a script like that. If I go in armbian-config > system > install I can see only one option: "Install/Update the bootloader on SD/eMMC". How could I clone from SSD to a USB stick? Is there a command like `sudo nand-sata-install`?

Hello Dear all, I dont really understand why netplan is renderer: NetworkManager I try to put wpa_supplicant.conf but does not work.

Many thanks in advance for help.

Hello .. I have tested both current release 24.2.1 (jammy and bookworm) on OPiZero, and usb otg not working .. on both ..

Hey everyone, I am attempting to update my Orange Pi Zero from Armbian 22.0.2.1 to the latest 23.11 version however I am running into the issue that I am stuck on how to perform this update, I have tried it using the sudo apt dist-upgrade command and tried regular sudo apt update and upgrade commands but everytime it says there are no new updates available (also no errors), when there is clearly a new version 23.11 available here: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero/ What am I doing wrong? Is it maybe because it says unsupported userspace?

Hello. For some reason, UART1 does not work for transmission, only for reception. The transmitter pin itself is definitely working, I checked by switching this pin to output mode, and then switching it to a high/low logical level, everything works properly, the level on the Pin changes. How I check the UART itself: I installed picocom, shorted the TX and RX pins, and I’m trying to see what I’m sending. For UART2 this method works as it should, but UART1 only works for reception. I realized this when I opened the TX and RX, and was able to receive incoming data sent through the USB-UART converter.

We are trying to compile a modified kernel module for this version of Armbian downloaded in October When running it reports: $cat /etc/armbian-release # PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BOARD=orangepizero BOARD_NAME="Orange Pi Zero" BOARDFAMILY=sun8i BUILD_REPOSITORY_URL=https://github.com/armbian/build BUILD_REPOSITORY_COMMIT=ba704f4740 LINUXFAMILY=sunxi ARCH=arm IMAGE_TYPE=stable BOARD_TYPE=csc INITRD_ARCH=arm KERNEL_IMAGE_TYPE=zImage FORCE_BOOTSCRIPT_UPDATE= VENDOR=Armbian BOOTSCRIPT_FORCE_UPDATE="no" BOOTSCRIPT_DST="boot.cmd" VERSION=23.8.3 REVISION=23.8.3 BRANCH=current uname -a Linux orangepizero 6.1.53-current-sunxi #3 SMP Wed Sep 13 07:43:05 UTC 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux cat /boot/config-6.1.53-current-sunxi | grep -i MODULE_FORCE # CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_LOAD is not set We assume that if CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_LOAD is not set that modprobe --force will not work and we will have to compile with the exact headers.

Alternately how do we modify the .ko from a near-similar build to overcome CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_LOAD not set? Thank you in advance!

after installing wireguard (kernel upgrade + headers) the pi would no longer boot and fail with crc error. Looking at the boot partition the uinitrd file was linked to the old version. Changed the uinitrd link to the newest one and it booted again.

Hi everyone, Very green here. Basically I setup 1 of my orange pi a few months back with "Armbian_23.02.3_Orangepizero2_jammy_legacy_4.9.318". I recently bought another pi and wanted to set it up with a newer version. I see bookworm is now the latest. I have tried both CLI and Minimal but whenever I flash those into my micro SD the orange pi never boots up. My router doesnt see the connection, so it cant hand off an IP. I thought maybe it was a bad mini SD or a bad pi. But when I flashed the old jammy image into the same SD, the pi immediately picked up the connection, my router gave it an IP and I was able to log in as a root to the pi. I read the documentation, and even saw the beginner videos to see that I wasnt doing something wrong. I had the SD connected before I powered on the PI, ensured I was the usb c for power. And that the SD has enough memory (8gb). Does anyone have an idea of what could be happening here with the bookworm armbian?
