Phoenix 0025m Posted August 31 Posted August 31 (edited) Hi, I'm new to the Armbian community, but I have used Linux before. Recently, I followed this tutorial: https://i12bretro.github.io/tutorials/0316.html to flash Armbian 20.10 Bullseye on what I suspect is a fake TX3 Mini. It has a red motherboard probably not a p-281 board, it could be a q201_N device as twrp said before installing Armbian. Anyways, Armbian detects 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage in it. It most likely has either an S905X or S912 CPU since I used "u-boot-s905x-s912" during the process. After flashing the SD card with Armbian, I was able to boot successfully. I then installed Armbian using the terminal with "install.sh." After completing the installation, I decided to check the partitions using GParted. In the eMMC (internal storage), I noticed around 900 MB of unallocated space. I decided to add this to my root partition. To do that, I first moved the boot partition upwards and placed the unallocated space next to the root partition. However, when I tried to extend my root partition into the unallocated space, GParted froze. I canceled the process and reopened GParted, but this time it said it was unable to read the eMMC. I thought it might be a bug, so I rebooted, but after the reboot, the screen remained blank—nothing happened. When I insert the SD card, the screen flickers blank for 2 seconds and then shows "no signal" for 3 seconds. Did I just kill the device, or is there any way to fix this? Please help!

Phoenix 0025m Posted August 31 Author Posted August 31 Hi SteeMan, thank you for responding. Is there any way to fix the box, or is it completely bricked and beyond repair? 0 Quote
