Works with Armbian images to Orange Pi PC ( Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 -XFCE 4.12 4.14 GUI ( Debian not tested )

You have to up down CPU frequencies from 1400MHZ to 1296MHZ

 

Best regards

It looks like nothing more than scrapped orange pi's with another name and the ancient H3 SoC.

I would not buy it.

I have bought a couple of them (one with 8gb emmc). It works fairly well and stable, and is nearly a clone of the OPPC+. However, I have noticed that it doesn't accept frequency scaling in armbian-config, display the cpu frequency in htop, or take a reboot without losing it's ability to identify the display it is connected to. I tried to see what the cpufreq-info was, and it said the driver was unknown with no info on all 4 cores. I think the power management must be different in some way. I tried to set a minimum and maximum processor speed in both Armbian Buster and Focal, and they both encounter errors when attempting to do so. I noticed when taking an installation directly from my Orange Pi PC+ to the Cherry Pi, the performance dropped considerably during video playback and the cpu temperature rose, so it isn't an exact clone hardware wise.

Would anyone be able to provide/direct to an image they have used for this board? Despite configuring the image in the original post as mentioned (and numerous others), I haven't been able to find/create an image that is anywhere near stable. Virtually every image I have tried experiences errors during the boot process or in normal operation (already ruled out other issues such as power), so I'm starting to wonder if it's a different issue entirely.
