I sent them a message, even sent an email and a whatsapp to the manufacture ( junuo ? hehe) , will see if I get a reply, google sadly doesn't help as seems it's the latest version of the board (v3.0), I really want to make this wifi work 😂 

The thing about SBC is that I already have one, the thing is that I spent some good time searching for a chip that would have multiple usb hosts instead of just one, and that's not easy to find, specially not below 50 euros, I came across the rk3228, that somehow is available at those tv boxes :(.


Vendor sadly never replied, got in touch with the manufacture, their sales gave me a whatsapp number for tech department but never got a reply there, sad :(

By the way, is there a way of making it boot from SD card? Armbian takes a long time to boot from the eemc it seems.

wirte the armbian image to SD Card and than insert and start , than it should boot from SD card like the multitool

 

i had nowadays 4 of this box, one old AMlogic s802 ( over 5 years in use with armbian scan and printserver) ) 1 xrk322x that work out of the box with armbian , one rk322x with resolder wifi from wired china chip to rtl8723ds , and now a rk3328 with android ( sadly sd card is on wrong sdio port)

I thought by changing to SD card would help, but seems I fell into the same issue I was having, long boot times (5min~ or even more).

Anybody saw this issue before? 

Also have been facing issue with HDMI, tried to add video tag on extratags on armbian env , it appears on xrandr -q but yeah, not even terminal or anything appears on boot.... 

This is the armbian monitor output link

I'm using balenaEtcher to burn the multitool image into a flash drive, but it ends with a partition of about 396MB. 
The linux image is about ~900MB uncompressed so there's no space left on the partition to move the distro file into the images folder.

I also tried unetbootin and it doesn't create the images folder.

 

What are my options? (I can't do SD card).

 

Thank you.

 two methods ,

1. boot image first than automatic resize to bigger size ( most of the drive) , than put your image on card

 

2. use the compressed image of armbian on the sd card , the multotool also can use zip and tar and tar.xz and tar.gz

Hi All, 

 

Im having an issue with my rk3228. Multitool and most (if not all) of the stable armbian (both sd card and emmc) keeps my unit shut down after 1 minute. Same with @hexdump issue 3 or 4 yrs ago. I tried to research the issue but came up nothing. I got a little success when I used the multitool with old tee img. It doesnt shut down when im using that. Its probably the trust.img but im not 100% sure and I also dont know how to replace or change the trust.img in the armbian build..

 

Hope someone can help me or point me to the right direction..

 

Cheers,

m

I got this issue of box boot to initramfs on sudden  reboot or power loss  and after I do this command 

  after doing  a mount/mmcblk2p1 command  and rebooting the box the box runs normally. 

is there way to make the system read only of fix this issue on the startup ?

Does anyone know how to have Armbian / Multitool  for RK3228 / RK3228H or if it is compatible with any jock tutorial?

normally all are compatible but there are no 3228H , there is 3328A and 3228B and 3229 (all same )

but like we say always there are so many creepy box outside with so many variant hardware and HW quality there are always some issue . you can follow the tutorials

@Mikee Mike the difference is that the "old tee" is a very old TrustOS proprietary and closed source binary from rockchip that does not put the board in standby after one minute. On the other side it has several compatibility issues among various boards.

The "regular" multitool has a newer TrustOS that works fine for the majority of the boards around, but on some very rare boards will put them in standby after one minute.

 

As long as they are closed source binaries, we don't know why that happens.

Thank you for the response @jock. Is it possible to use that old TrustOS in an Armbian? Or maybe is there an existing Armbian that uses that old TrustOS? Thanks again!

No, because it is old and buggy. It would perhaps let some boards work but it will break many others.

The best option is to use the opensource trust os, but it lacks some features (DDR frequency scaling, virtual poweroff most of all).

hi guys, 

 

tryied to short the 7 8 pin no lucko... used this schema of dot on chip as first pin and then mesuared voltages to check if there was a 0v and a 1.8v pins, tried a bunch to make pc recognize usb device, no lucko...

Did a flash from linux to armbian with no sucess and then I got to boot with usb, no sd, with multitool and flashed some armbian 5.15 and 6.40 with success, then I wanted to try out a android image because performance was really poor on linux, could not even reproduce videos with out stutters on mpv, browser experience was horible. Then after using multitool to flash LibreELEC-RK322x.arm-9.2-devel-20200427220805-b7186bc-rk3229-v884k, it bricked my board... by the way this is a ddr3 board and this image seens to be ddr3 also, don~t know why it bricked, I tought that I could reflash with multitool if something bad happened since it was ok with armbian. One thing to note is that after the first flash attempt with armbian via linux, I could not enter flash mode by usb with computer like before, only with multitool... Can some one help me please?

While using a multitool on the RK3229Q 221P V1.3 board to perform a backup, the screen suddenly went blank midway through the process. What could be causing this issue? my device is MXQ PRO 4K 5G

why this , i thing most of usb wifi adapter ( WIFI N or AC at 2.4GHZ ) are realtek 81xx or some RTK88xx , that are good support and already inside this armbian ,also some Broadcom USB things .

 

 

 

 

please be arware most of 5GHZ WIFI AC ( dual Mode) are not as good supported at linux

Hello there! I'm in possession of 12 different models of RK3228 TV Box devices. While I'm having varying degrees of success with current Armbian-community distributions (wi-fi compatibility is iffy, performance is very limited), as I troubleshoot I keep wondering about the same question: how can I accurately find out my correct led-config. Is it the board footprint? Is there documentation on this aspect?

Edited by hfrts

@hfrts hello!

 

First of all: no documentation from the manufacturs of any kind. Cheap tv boxes come without any kind of documentation: they are dirty cheap hardware with barely working software.

 

The board footprint/silkscreen is indeed the first thing to look for to find the matching led-config: all known boards are listed within the rk322x-config script.

If your board is not listed, then the stock firmware (or its device tree) and photos of the board most of the time are enough to properly match an existing led-config with the board or create a new led-config for a new board.

Posted (edited)

@hfrts hello
First of all and following the @jock's answer and the general rule of thumb of this 3ad I suggest post some photos of board and even better uart logs for every board.

Second are well known general problems with inside wifi chips

Third when you say "
performance is very limited....." are you referring to wifi performance or overall performance of the box?
Performance of wifi is limited to 24/26 mbs since the internal chip often is just one chain tx/rx sock ( maximum is 54 but this speed is avaible on double chain socks )

If  " performance is very limited....." is referred to overall performance of the box, well try consider its hardware specs and what is the purpose you use the box for

@jock... "they are dirty cheap hardware..." .........that costed to you, me and all other friends hundred of sleepless nights LOL 😅

Hello,

 

I have this issue that whenever I update to latest kernel, HDMI screen does not work. I am using a rk3228a tv box, it does work fine with 6.1.18 kernel.

 

Any thoughts on this issue, or how to solve it? Many thanks beforehand.

Ubuntu noble base-files broken after Armbian 24.5.1.

Upgrading Ubuntu Jammy to Noble is working OK is little trixy.

Current base-file is not in noble (last is 24.5.1).

So is losing rk322X-config and all Arbian futures.

 

Its depends on armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box-current and armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box that have 24.5.1 so can forcing downgrading and get the base-files installed but in on obliterate version.

Both is having the current version of 24.8.3 but cant being used then base-files not exiting in this version.

 

Command used for debug and installing working file set for getting armbian working after ubuntu update:

apt install  base-files=24.5.5-13ubuntu10-noble

apt list -a base-files

armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box-current/noble 24.2.5 armhf
armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box-current/noble 24.2.1 armhf

Then getting one little more happy RK322X box:

Welcome to Armbian 24.5.1 Noble with Linux 6.6.47-current-rockchip

 

And apt-get is saying:

The following packages have been kept back:
armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box armbian-bsp-cli-rk322x-box-current

 

Then base-files is broken.

 

 

Pleas triggering one new build of base-files for our RK322X boxes so we can getting then updated to newer version of armbian without installing the OS new.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Edit: Wast testing the daily build with  current build state but after doing update with apt the installed base-files and its dependencies is flagged as local and is not working OK but is possible installing the same version as for the normal current ubuntu Noble and its working on one old code base = working but not expected of the edge build that  shall being at  the last code base
