eibrog Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 (edited) Since the H616 is supposed to be very similar to H313 - try this image that @rafman made. Would be great to know if it works. Just load to SD and see if it boots. Edited October 5 by eibrog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zcrself Posted November 10 Author Share Posted November 10 @eibrog I have tested the image ( https://github.com/sicXnull/armbian-build/releases/download/v24.8.0-trunk.425/Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96q-v5-1_bookworm_current_6.6.44_mate_desktop.img.xz ) It does not work 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick A Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 (edited) Try this miniarch image. If it boots then you can port over the files needed to boot armbian. https://github.com/warpme/miniarch https://github.com/warpme/miniarch/releases/download/v20240916/MiniArch-20240715-6.10.10-board-h616.tanix_tx6s_axp313-SD-Image.img.xz You should also install a serial console to you UART port. You can see the UART pins (GND, TX0, RX0) top left corner of second picture. https://linux-sunxi.org/UART Edited November 10 by Nick A 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have bought ch340 to connect UART port, not working. I guest that UART port is disabled by OEM 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick A Posted Monday at 01:37 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:37 PM Your box probably has secure boot enabled... Give this image a try. Let me know if you get any output from the UART. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/download/v20240716/Armbian-20240716-unofficial_24.5.0-trunk_Transpeed-8k618-t_bookworm_edge_6.7.12_xfce_desktop_Secure_Boot.img.tar.xz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick A Posted Tuesday at 01:15 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:15 PM Your TX0 and RX0 wires need to be crossed over. TX0 red connects to RX0 and RX0 white connects to TX0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zcrself Posted Tuesday at 04:56 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 04:56 PM @Nick A I have bought two h616 box . One is good, the other get brick. I want to mirror the h616 firmware to the bricked tvbox. Could you give some advice? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick A Posted Tuesday at 06:49 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:49 PM (edited) That's more android related. You would have to ask the XDA forums. You could make a backup using Armbian. But you would need to boot Armbian first. Do you have the correct drivers install on windows for your CH340? Putty should be set to 115200 baud rate. To check if your UART is working try booting into android first. You should see the android u-boot messages. Then try the non secure boot armbian images.

rafman Posted Tuesday at 08:40 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:40 PM @zcrself Try also the bellow images: Use Balena etcher to burn it to SD Card. 1>X96Q (Z1-Q1) Secure Boot : https://easyupload.io/l1v7bu 2> X96Q (Z1-Q1) Non Secure Boot : https://easyupload.io/clf6ny Please let me know if you can boot. If both images fail to boot then Use your working box, boot on Android go to play store and download the AIDA64 app Post here screenshots of CPU, RAM, OS ,,, etc Also try to identify your PMIC chip of your board e.g axp313a (red circle) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eibrog Posted Thursday at 12:12 AM Share Posted Thursday at 12:12 AM (edited) Hey All - just a FYI - your transpeed (non-secure-boot) image working on the T95Max (H618/4GB/32GB) - no wifi - but not on my list of needs. Much faster than the Q1 - worth the extra $3 lol Sorry, specifically, @Nick A - your image from github Edited Thursday at 12:13 AM by eibrog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafman Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago @zcrself I build 2 server images based on X96-Mate (h616) Download these both images bellow. https://easyupload.io/m/4yvmoy Non Secure Boot Image: Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96-H616_bookworm_current_6.6.44_non-sec.img.xz Secure boot Image: Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96-H616_bookworm_current_6.6.44_sec.img.xz Please let me know if you can boot. Your Tv-Box also seems to be similar with H96 Max H616 You can try Android firmware from bellow link. https://www.h96tvbox.com/firmware-download/ https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IJA6yZQwdKc3i9bQl9xlp5jSACZjTb7h image name ( H616_user_H96MaxH616_10_20220804.1049.img ) Note: Try android images only to the bricked device, and use your serial adapter (after flashing) to see if any boot info is available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
