Lesano Posted December 24, 2025 Posted December 24, 2025 On internet i can't find any image for this tv box. Anyone have build for this? 0 Quote
Nick A Posted December 25, 2025 Posted December 25, 2025 (edited) @Lesano https://linux-sunxi.org/Tanix_TX1 shouldn’t be hard to make a armbian config for this board since it's mainlined. You probably want this patch to add wifi and hdmi. https://gitlab.manjaro.org/iuncuim/linux/-/blob/eccecabc2ca2d6efb463edc94aa0ef383d8ae200/0650-arm64-dts-allwinner-h313-Tanix-TX1-TVbox.patch You would need to boot over USB cable. I never booted over USB so I can't help with that. https://linux-sunxi.org/FEL/USBBoot Edited December 25, 2025 by Nick A 0 Quote
billymore Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Hello, I'm also interested in finding an image and getting feedback on Tanix TX1 QHZIW_H313_TX1_EMCP_V2.0. I bought this cheap box on Temu for 15 USD (2GB/16GB) I tried with USB drive and BalenaEtcher several images, without success (trying to boot on it, with tootpick on button) : 🔴 Armbian-unofficial_26.02.0-trunk_X96q-v1-3_bookworm_current_6.12.64_minimal.img.xz 🔴 Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_X96q_bookworm_current_6.6.44_mate_desktop.img.xz 🔴 Armbian-unofficial_26.02.0-trunk_X96q-v5-1_bookworm_current_6.12.64_cinnamon_desktop.img.xz Based on my other experiences, this box, although close to x96q, is different. With X96Q, you just have to use SD card and boot was succesful. However, here, nothing is working. Looking for other's experience and advice. 0 Quote
Nick A Posted February 6 Posted February 6 @billymore https://linux-sunxi.org/Tanix_TX1 Use a toothpick or any other non-conductive stick to push the button inside the A/V connector when powering up the box. Connect a USB-A/USB-A cable to the only USB port and a host PC. https://www.slashinit.com/posts/boot-uboot-orange-pi-zero-2-using-usb-mode/ https://linux-sunxi.org/FEL/USBBoot 0 Quote
billymore Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Hello Nick, Thanks for your reply. I tried to do this with a basic USB A to C cable, with an adapter on the USB-C part to have a USB male. The TX1 started (LED lit up) but no detection of the TX1 as USB device on my machine I'm using a Macbook M1 with Debian Linux VM to detect this. And the TX1 is never detected as USB OTG. 0 Quote
Nick A Posted February 6 Posted February 6 (edited) @billymore I was able to detect my transpeed box using the toothpick trick. Here are some links that might help figure it out. Maybe even going on irc and asking the sunxi guys. https://oftc.catirclogs.org/linux-sunxi/search?q=tx1 https://groups.google.com/g/linux-sunxi/c/OrktE3duFDA Edited February 6 by Nick A 0 Quote
billymore Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago (edited) I'm moving forward. I managed to get the FEL - a true Male A <> Male A USB cable is required. FEL mode is now working. I'm able to transfer the u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of Armbian but TX1 is booting on Android immediately (based on Armbian-unofficial_26.02.0-trunk_X96q-v5-1_bookworm_current_6.12.64_minimal.img - u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin extracted). This means that I don't have the possibility to boot on the Armbian USB drive (flashed with u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin) Similarly, I tried with another image based on MiniArch (MiniArch-20240715-6.18.7-board-h313.tanix_tx1-SD-Image.img.xz). I was able to transfer those MiniArch via FEL: sunxi-fel -v -p uboot bootloader/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin write 0x40200000 Image write 0x4fa00000 dtbs/allwinner/sun50i-h313-tanix-tx1.dtb write 0x4fc00000 load-kernel.scr Original made Load-kernel.scr in the MiniArch-20240715-6.18.7-board-h313.tanix_tx1-SD-Image.img.xz : setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda2 rw rootwait ram=1024M debug booti 0x40200000 - 0x4fa00000 With the MiniArch FEL, the TX1 is not booting on Android and I can see 4 penguins with cursor. I updated the load-kernel.scr to have some verbose by changing the console: setenv bootargs console=tty1 console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda2 rw rootwait rootdelay=60 ram=1024M debug loglevel=7 booti 0x40200000 - 0x4fa00000 Result: MiniArch bootloader and FEL transfer writes allow to boot. USB devices are detected (USB Hub, USB drive, keyboard) but nothing happens further, or it ends up with a kernel panic.
