Orange Pi Zero 2

Hello everyone, I am using an Orange Pi Zero 2W with a graphical user interface (GUI). I downloaded and installed the official Orange Pi Zero 2W image. Unfortunately, I keep running into a Wi-Fi connection issue. After booting, the system repeatedly asks me to enter my Wi-Fi password. If I don’t enter it, I have no internet connection. What’s interesting is: If I disable and re-enable Wi-Fi in the network manager, it automatically reconnects to the known network without asking for the password again. Alternatively, a system reboot also restores the Wi-Fi connection automatically. I have already seen o…

Hello, I am looking for a specific legacy image for the Orange Pi Zero 2W: Armbian 23.02.2 Bullseye with Kernel 5.10.160. The reason I need this specific version is to use the device as a USB UVC (Webcam) gadget via ConfigFS. On the newer 6.6/6.12 mainline kernels, I am facing a "Permission Denied" error when trying to write to hHeight, even as root. After researching, it seems this is a known kernel-level restriction in newer versions, and the legacy 5.10 kernel is the most stable for UVC gadget functionality. I’ve checked the current archive mirrors but could only find the 6.6.x versions. Could anyone provide an official archive or a reliable mirror link …

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get an ST7735S LCD display working with my Orange Pi Zero 2 (H616). This setup was working correctly with older Armbian kernels, but after a recent update, I can no longer get the SPI device to appear. I have already tried a couple of different configuration methods without success.

Hello, I have two Orange Pi Zero 2 for two years, I didn't know what to do with it. Yesterday I have installed Armbian_25.5.1_Orangepizero2_noble_current_6.12.23. The serial was a bit buggy during installation (display + key press), I have used option -L with screen: screen -L /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 Thank you for your great work !

Hi, I need linux kernel source to compile a custom module. The one I downloaded from kernel.org did not work, got module format error, indicating the kernel is different. i did not have this problem compiling the same module for Armbian lepotato (amlogic) Where do I get the kernel source for my Orangepi Zero 2?

Suddenly the 6.16 kernel was released in apt , who did it? why all overlays missed?

SOURCE: https://github.com/MathiasStadler/orange-pi-zero-boot-from-spi I spent the whole day trying to boot without a microSD, and I finally got it, using the Orange Pi Zero SPI boot tutorial, with a few adjustments. First of all, you’ll need a microSD card. I used this Armbian version Armbian_24.11.1_Orangepizero2_noble_current_6.6.62_minimal.img.xz Once the system has booted from the microSD: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y reboot After the system reboots, we need to check if the SPI flash is detected: cat /proc/mtd #It should return something like: dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00200000 00001000 "spi0.0…

When I tried using a c++ library called sfml which tried opening a window and it gave me an error and after trying every solution on the internet I gave up. And after trying other Debian images I noticed all of them don't have a desktop environment pre installed. So does Debian have graphics at all?

I've got Orange Pi 2W board and installed Debian 12 Home Assistant image to it (image link). There is a huge problem with it. Very often there is no bluetooth module appeared in system. I need to reboot system for 10-15 timer to make it work. What can be a reason? I attached 2 boot logs (with good BT appears and no BT appears), I hope it will help to find out the issue. boot_log_bt_good_02.zip boot_log_bt_bad_02.zip

Hi, I would like to use st7735 in an orangePI zero 2 (H616). The st7735 module was purchased at the following link: https://it.aliexpress.com/item/33031122936.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.32.c5eb36966Y6eGs&gatewayAdapt=glo2ita Armbian usage.

Hi everybody, Since some time i have a problem with my OrangePi Zero2. Not sure about when it started exactly, but possibly it came with the latest kernel upgrade. Until then the device was working without any problems and absolutely stable. Unfortunately i have no connection by cable, only with Wifi and possibly it is only the Wifi connection which isn't working anymore? I found the following entries in /var/log/kern (which are the latest entries until the device restarts): 2025-02-10T19:54:40.037397+01:00 orangepizero2 kernel: [86427.304061] unisoc_wifi unisoc_wifi wlan0: sprdwl_report_connection sm_state (5), status: (2)! 2025-02-10T19:54:40.0…

Hey folks, I have a really weird issue where any time I try to `cat` any of the cpufreq files or use any of the cpufreq commands, it just hangs indefinitely. I've made sure that everything is up to date, reinstalled cpufreq, and because I have 2 of the same board, have confirmed that it's an issue with both of my Zero 2s. I also ran `strace` on one of the cpufreq commands and found that it's getting hung on a write step: openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor", O_WRONLY) = 3 write(3, "ondemand", 8 Other than this, the device has been doing just fine. Any advice on this is welcome! OrangePi Zero2 Armbian (24.11.1) aarch6…

In short, I'm trying to build a FULLY-PREEMPT-REALTIME system to run on my Orange Pi Zero 2W. I used this post as a reference, and got quite far. But, I'm stuck on something that I believe I undestand, but don't know how to resolve. I don't believe this is a probleme specific to my board though. What I've done so far with success is both install and run a pre-built Armbian Image on this board, as well as build my own image and run it. Both work perfectly. Now, I'm attempting to apply the RT patch and build a fresh image (or even just a Kernel) to get the FULL REALTIME kernel support working. However, the build sy…

First off, I would like to give the crew at Armbian a huge heartfelt thanks for all the awesome work you do under sometimes trying conditions. I would like to present Archian, the bastard child of Armbian & Arch. Why … well, the project I am working on needed current versions of phosh & plasma-mobile and the versions on jammy/bookworm were quite old. The OPi supplied image was quite flaky so I had to find a way to mash these together. And this is the result. It does need to be run as root ! The script has 3 arguments: init - downloads the armbian image file, arch rootfs and arch packages. You need to then write …

Hi, I really apologise if the information is out there and I just haven't found it. I was looking to buy a board for a small embedded GUI application and this one seems to fit the bill. I would like to use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and HDMI. Is there a list of what is working or not working on each build/version? (This is probably a more general question to Armbian for any device) The only thing I could find is this: But it's not that recent. On the download page: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2/ under specifications it does list, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi but I'm not sure if this means its now working? …

Hello, I've been using OPiZ2 for about 2 years as Pi-hole in gravity-sync with another one (Orange Pi 3 LTS running Open Media Vault with no problem). Today I found out it was dead, no connection and just a blank screen. It must have happened in the past few days, because I checked it on sunday and it was up and running. I'm almost sure I was using it with Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Orangepizero2_sid_edge_6.0.6. i have extracted the sd card and checked it on Windows with Diskinternals reader and Minitool Partition Wizard, no problem found. The most recent files and folders have been modified on 2024-07-12, eleven days ago, much prior to my checking, so…

Hi, does anyone have experience with video playback? is playing 1080p in anyway possible? Which image would you recommend for Orange Pi Zero 2 H616 1GB? Is a desktop x11 mandatory?

Hello, I am new to Armbian and Linux in general. I am using an OrangePi Zero 2 (H616) board and need to enable the hardware UART. To do this, I tried using the simplest method I could find: running the command armbian-config -> System -> Hardware. However, in the section where I should find options for peripherals to enable, I found nothing. I have tried installing different versions of Armbian, but nothing changed: - Armbian_24.5.1_Orangepizero2_jammy_current_6.6.31.img - Armbian_24.2.1_Orangepizero2_bookworm_current_6.6.16.img - Armbian_23.8.3_Orangepizero2_bookworm_current_6.1.53.img - Armbian_24.5.1_Orangepizero2_noble_current_6.6.31.i…

Hi guys, I've been running an armbian edge image i've compiled using the build tool (armbian bookworm 6.7.12), and it's been working perfectly, with good gpu support and hdmi out working. Now this is not strictly an armbian question, but i've been wondering: is there any way to overclock that chip even slightly? There doesn't seem to be a single post about that that i could find specifically for the H616? Any and all answers welcome!

Hello I've tried both Bookworm and Jammy (also older version). None boot up - nothing. The red LED starts blinking after after a few seconds.

Is there an image/version someone can confirm was tested and works? thank you

There are a number of people working on getting the orangepi zero3 to work with Armbian. The zero3 is almost identical to the zero2 which is a supported board. The differences between the two have been taken into account by upstream Linux and u-boot changes in at least Linux-6.6 to the point where it is possible to build a working zero3 Armbian image. Everything else in theory should be identical between the two boards. Any changes should apply to both zero2 and 3. My question is, what capabilities are supported by Armbian on the zero2. What is working and tested? - wifi -Bluetooth -HDMI -sound -gpio -i2c, spi It would be helpful t…

I'm running Octoprint on Orange Pi Zero 2 and Armbian 22.11.3 Bullseye with Linux 4.9.318-sun50iw9 (other than assorted added userspace software, it's stock Armbian, no recompiled kernel or anything like that). It works great - while it works. I successfully complete 30+-hour prints. I can connect, monitor, everything is fine and dandy. When I'm connected to Octoprint from PC, monitoring of the 3D printer enabled, even without printing anything, it works ok. But if I'm not connected, and the printer is doing nothing for a prolonged time (an hour or so?), it stops working. Probably goes to sleep - stops responding to any network communication.

I have OPIZ2 been running for months for node-red and MQTTbroker. Due to crappy configuration I did during the insallation, then I decided to replace the OS and reconfigure all, I used the same SDcard and reflash with same Armbian_23.5.2_Orangepizero_jammy_current_6.1.30. But, beyond this point, OPIZ2 never boots anymore... I tried other armbian version and it is the same dead. If I use a fresh SD card (Sandisk 16GB A1) then it works ok. My question is regarding the SD card imaging ( i am using Balena-etcher), is there something change inside the SDcard after reflash so that OPI does not recognise the booting part anymore??

Hi team, There are no current images for Orange Pi Zero 2 at https://www.armbian.com/cf7stdb-entries/orange-pi-zero-2/ The Zero image does not work. I did manage to find an archived legacy image based on some posts from 2022 however nothing on the new kernel works. My question is this: Is there a reason why these devices require unique builds? I understand the kernel drivers may not be in 6.x for this board however I'm more referring to the huge number of builds that need to be supported. Thanks, Jason

Hello, I have orange pi zero 2 but it doesn't work with armbian versions after kernel version 4.9.318, I tried many versions.

All i got is the orangepi-config but it doesnt have the "Go to the “system” section and select “Hardware” then activate w1-gpio." so i was looking arround and found you need to enable overlays in /boot/armbianEnv.txt but dont have it aswell but the alternative /boot/orangepiEnv.txt there i add the /boot/orangepiEnv.txt overlay_prefix=sun50i-h616 overlays=w1-gpio param_w1_pin=PC8 …

I have an Orange Pi Zero 2 set up with Octoprint and a webcam. No keyboard or screen, all access over ssh... if it's running. If it started OK, then no problem, everything works fine. If. Usually powering it up lights up the red LED and... it ends here. I waited even half an hour, red, no boot. Occasionally - one in five-ten attempts to boot - the LED turns green after a couple seconds and the board boots fine. Very rarely the red turns to green after a minute or so, and the board boots up. Unfortunately, having no cable to connect it to a monitor or serial, my diagnostics are quite limited - after booting dmesg looks mostly clean, but maybe in case it's a sem…

I have an orange pi zero 2 and I need to configure the 1-wire protocol. I need to know which gpio pin to connect to. Thanks

When assembling custom image through armbian build env, how to insert my own config. How to enable support for booting from USB flash? To flash the bootloader in spi-flash I'm flash u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin into spi-flash, but have error No Bootable media found. Sorry for my English

Hi there! How to disable private ethernet MAC on OPZ2? Router says my device has one.

So there is some weirdness happening with Armbian on the Orange Pi Zero 2 that I bought from Amazon. These are the V1.5 version of the hardware. With the Orange Pi image (which looks strangely like armbian), once the device is booted, the red led goes off, and the green led turns on. With the armbian image, the red light stays on, and the HDMI output does not turn on in the CLI image. This led me initially to think this board was not working. Once I hooked up a USB to Serial interface, I noticed it booted. Well, at least when the SD card was seated correctly, but that is a hardware problem. Once booted, `armbian-config` does not show the wif…

Hello, I am wondering what is the current status of wifi on Orange Pi Zero 2? Is it working? If yes then on which release? If not then what are the current problems related to this? Is somebody working on it? How one could help to make it working? I am asking because I am a little bit confused because of this This topic is more than 2 years old but I see no update.

Armbian 22.11 Bullseye / Jammy Kernel 4.9.318 or 6.1.4 Release date: Jan 10, 2023 Legacy kernel has more or less full hardware support, while mainline lack functions such is wireless, HDMI, ... https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2/ Looking for maintainer!

My OPIZ2 was working happily with Armbian_bullseye 22.11, but due to the wifi issue, I download the Armbian_bullseye_22.02 dan flash the image into the same working SD card (overwritten). But now my OPIZ2 would not boot anymore, nothing seen in the serial communication either. No red/green LED ever lit. Sadly, this is my 2nd dead OPIZ2..... Seeking for help if those boards are still recoverable...

Hi all, I'm trying to change access my zero 2 via hostname instead of IP (e.g. https://mypizero2.local/). I've changed the hostname through sudo armbian-config but just cannot connect to it via hostname. Has anyone managed to get this working?

Hi, hopefully some kind and more knowledgeable soul could provide some pointers, when trying to compile out of tree dts with dtsi includes on orangepizero2. I realise the included files must be pre-processed before compiled and have tried numerous approaches all which failed miserably by not being able to move beyond the following error.

Armbian image version: Armbian 22.08 Bullseye Kernel 5.19.y, Size: 388Mb, Release date: Oct 22, 2022 Bug report: 1: When i reboot my orangepi zero 2 , my devices will be power off. 2: I use the newest image , display nothing on screen. But i have an older version image. It display to screen by Micro-HDMI perfect. 3: Is possible to light up green LED after system start? I mean, when the device power on, red LED light up. It's nice. But if light the green LED up after system start up, I can know my system get no troubles and it's running now.

I've been having issues lately with the later versions 22.11 and above. At some point when I reboot, I'll get those 3 "Read-only file system" messages on boot: mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/root/.cache/oh-my-zsh’: Read-only file system rm: cannot remove '/root/.zcompdump-orangepizero2-5.8': Read-only file system zsh: locking failed for /root/.zsh_history: read-only file system: reading anyway What is happening?!

Looking for a working Armbian OS for Orange Pi Zero 2 seeing alot about newer images not working if anyone has confirmed working image for Running Klipper that would be appreciated Ive tried to flash both the cli images from the orange pi zero 2 section of armbian site but neither result in lights.

What version of armbian is the best overall for the opiz2 ? im mainly going to use it as a server so no desktop.its gonna run some python code for my bots. i might move it around so wifi with 5ghz support is a must .

HI, recently downloaded Armbian Jammy CLI for Orange Pi Zero 2 It boots up but doesn't display anything on HDMI. I have to access it via remote ssh on another computer. Any way to enable the HDMI. I was hoping to run a desktop on it. Reading different forums it's suggested that the default check is too short so HDMI is disabled but I've no idea how to disable this. Will there be a desktop version of Jammy for Orange pi Zero 2 available to download? I'm using Jammy with a desktop on a Orange Pi One and it works fine. Thanks

I have an OrangePi Zero 2 with the latest bullseye (5.19). I would like to activate SPI (and i2c) and was in armbian-config to do so. Besides that the system was frozen, i couldn't see anything under the hardware tab even after defreeze (only empty entries and a short pop-up: "usage: grep....." like in https://github.com/armbian/config/issues/33). While researching the problem, I found out that this could be due to the missing "overlay_prefix" in armbianEnv.txt. So i looked and found sun50i-h616-orangepi-zero2.dts in a subfolder and wanted to enter overlay_prefix=sun50i-h616. Now i get the following error message in the hardware tab: "loading error: expected at…

I've been able to get two /dev/spidev's working on Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 (H5) boards. How is configuring this on a Orange Pi Zero 2 (h616) going to be different or similar? Any tips for getting spi-double-spidev-cs.dts to work? Thanks so much,

I can't boot orange pi zero 2 from first use... It displays only red LED and it doesn't change. I connected lan, SD card and power source. What is wrong with my orange pi?

I cannot receive data on serial port ttyS5. I able to write onto it, but the reading doesnt work. I'm using this https://github.com/officialdoniald/Xamarin.Android.SerialPort . I tried using adb shell commands like "cat < /dev/ttyS5" but there is no received data either. When I try to send data with "LibSerialPort.WriteLine("text")" I can see it in Hercules Terminal so the writing works.

Hi al!! I managed to find img with which my OPi Zero 2 starts, it's Armbian_22.02.2_Orangepizero2_focal_legacy_4.9.255. But it stops load after first `apt upgrade`. I've freezed kernel with armbian-config. Now I want to use wireguard + nftables. But everytime i'm trying to set wg up I've message: [#] nft -f /dev/fd/63 /dev/fd/63:1:1-26: Error: Could not process rule: Operation not supported ... Quick google search showed something concerning nf_tables module in kernel or something like this. (I'm not an experienced linux user). Is there any chance to set up my OPi Z 2 with wg + nftables? Thanks.

Hello, I have abandoned the Orangepizero2 I had bought months ago to use with Armbian, I have confused zero and zero 2. Seeing new release, I have just downloaded/install Armbian 22.05 Jammy. Install is ok, good work, thank you ! The wireless interface seems not enabled, I have looked at dmesg output and nmtui-connect. I could not find info about it, the board name doesn't help a lot. I understand the support of this board is pretty new. Is there a known technic to enable the wifi ? Have a nice day,

i've try to use a board usb to can, but every topic i see about can and armbian is with spi to can. I very beginner with sbc and armbian. This is the firmware it's runningin board usb-can https://github.com/candle-usb/candleLight_fw

It looks like the May 28th release produced issues. I tried using the images on the OrangePI Zero 2 and the led only stays red. The prior version worked with no issue.

Before complaining about an issue read this! tl;dr: Put your Zero2 and/or any other H616 based device on the shelf and WAIT for proper support to come. And no. There is no ETA. Assuming usable state end 2021/beginning 2022. Software support is still work in progress and under heavy development. Provided preview images can break any time. Do not report this, we are aware of that and can/will not help you with that if you are not willing to investigate and research by yourself. Feel free to join fellow developers to their efforts to create proper software support. But don't waste our time with complains. Thank you! https://github.com…

After upgrade at 30.5. I can't boot the orangepi zero 2 (4.9 kernel). Is there any possibility to reload the old kernel or other ways to fix it? Thanks in advance for answering. config-4.9.255-sun50iw9

The stable armbian Focal image with Kernel 5.16.y fails to initialize the board. If I install the kernel 4.19.y image it does work in both Focal and Bullseye but when I try to change the kernel from armbian -config then it installs but on reboot it fails once again to reinitialise the board. I am using an orange pi zero 2 1gb. Just a couple of days ago Orange pi released two new images (Bullseye and Focal) with kernel 5.16 and 5.13 respectively. They do work and install. Although I would prefer to use armbian to the orange pi versions of it. Maybe someone can have a look at those two images to compare them with armbian to see where do they differ and why on…

I just download the image for Oranegpi Zero2 : Armbian 21.08 Bullseye Kernel 4.9.y, Size: 337Mb, Updated: Jan 24, 2022 And I use "usbimage" write the image to my SD card . And, nothing happen, Red LED and Green LED not lighting. Serial Port has no any message. I have 3 SD card, 2 Orangepi Zero2. All of it I test still failure. I have a older image for Orangepi Zero2 name "Armbian_21.08.1_Orangepizero2_buster_legacy_4.9.280.img.xz". This one is useful. BUT, can not "apt upgrade". If you do so , you cannot boot up next time. So I just confuse now......
