Great job man, it works, it's fast, can you show us the secret sauce?

Did you find a way to include it on armbian?

@Hqnicolas    Thanks! Yes and yes. ๐Ÿ˜€

I'd like to have others test this u-boot, too, if you don't mind. In due time, you will get a PR for your repo and may include it in Armbian. However, I think it is too special for inclusion right into Armbian source code, but you can decide once you looked at the PR.

@Hqnicolas I submitted a PR for you to review. Notice that it is somewhat fragmented and may not be mergable right away. I hope you can integrate it with your repo. Feel free to get back to me if you have questions or want amendments or the like ... ๐Ÿ™‚

Best wishes, Deetsh

@dfahren 
I see that you have a lot to add here,

I would like you to participate in the integration of this board in Joshua Riek's project to enable RKNPU,

where the board already works but there is the problem of the maskrom button, micro stuttering and the memory clock.

 

edit: the u-boot 2025.01 for h96max v56 was merged, also wifi works out of the box, no patch needed. 
@maka @mvpwar @hzdm @dfahren @Vincenzoernst1 @pessimism
please keep a copy from next armbian release for this board.

@Hqnicolas: Thanks for the invitation! I have the impression, you overestimate my capabilities to participate in this project. NPU, for example, I'm completely blank, have no idea what it is about. May be I'm able to integrate this particular OpenVFD driver in the kernel, but that is something for the (hopefully not so distant) future. Panfrost, rkvdec and so on is for the DEVs with high stakes and - without any doubt - boat loads of time, which, very unfortunately, have not ... ๐Ÿ˜ž

I'll get back to this forum once I have good news to share (or questions to ask). Till then: all the best to everybody!

Sorry for intruding guys but I have a T95 Plus which has an RK3566 with 4G/64G. Will this firmware be a drop in replacement for it?

Thanks in advance.

We don't have this board, but you can find users with this model in this link
you could also find people on https://www.t95plus.com/

use other topics as development path

Thanks for the response, I went through them already and it looks like the development on it went stale. I read that all RK3566 TV Boxes have the same internals so was hoping to use this build.

The chip on Taobao ~15$ is 64gbit (8GByte) but has 2 ranks (2 CS) Dual-Rank must be supported in your hardware, e.g. there must be tracks and pads under LPDDR for both A and B channel: CS0_A, CS0_B and CS1_A,  CS1_B same for data lines DQ_0-15_A and DQ_0-15_B etc....

 

I bought it for my Rock 3A (2GB), If I bought this SBC for 25$ (34$ on Taobao or 49$ on AliExpress), then plus this memory chip +15$(not including shipping) comes out to 40$ for my case. Also I have the skills of soldering and repairing with a soldering air station - this is also important, by the way I bought a stencil for bga200 + solder paste (or balls for bga rebolling) just in case I have to re-solder.

Continuing on the topic of replacing the LPDDR4 memory chip.
Here is a successful experience of replacement.
