1) If a debugging cable(USB to TTL converter for serial communication in gtkterminal) is already connected in nano-pi neo board..If we power up the nano-pi it is not booting 2) If a debugging cable(USB to TTL converter for serial communication in gtkterminal) and power cable is connected simultaneously.. It is not booting... Why in this two condition the nano-pi is not booting?

Hello, I have an image based on Armbian 5.37 and I have noticed that after upgrading linux-jessie-root-lime2 from 5.37 to 5.60, the Lime2 was not able to get an IP for eth0. The only way is to execute dhclient eth0 I have noticed that a lot of file was added in linux-jessie-root-lime2_5.60_armhf/data/usr/lib/armbian and I think that one of them are responsible of this issue. Do you have any idea on how to fix that ? Thanks

Hi, I would like to run Armbian Stretch (mainline kernel 4.14.y) on Bananapi M1. Board has an issue - sd card detect pin is broken. In legacy kernel 3.4.y there was an easy workaround to change paramter sdc_detmode = 1 to sdc_detmode = 3 in /boot/script.bin file. How would I do this on 4.14 kernel which as I understand doesn't use script.bin anymore? I setup Virtualbox with Ubuntu 18.04 and I can compile image with default options. I only need guidance in what parameter and in which file to change.

Or was i2s intentionally left out because or some conflict for example? (I had good luck with legacy on Banana Pi Pro a long time ago with fex, so I'm guessing it's a unintended omission?)

Hi folks, A few months back, I set up an Orange Pi Prime on Armbian Bionic (Armbian_5.52.180715_Orangepiprime_Ubuntu_bionic_dev_4.18.0-rc4.7z). I'm now putting together a home automation workshop around this configuration, but it looks like it's now missing from the website (https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-prime/) and download site (https://dl.armbian.com/orangepiprime/). Is Bionic no longer supported for this board, or was this an oversight? Is there something I can do to help?

I would like to grab a desktop img of armbian for my orange pi, I did download 1 that said desktop and have logged in and with password and created a account but as far as I can go is to the lunix prompt how do I get desktop install of can any only please point me to download the desktop img for my orange pi plus 1 2e. Thank you Sneaky

Hi, I tried to enable the i2c in u-boot by using the config flags shown in the Readme. But I had no success. What do I miss?

I made tests with Orange Pi 2+ to install Armbian to eMMC. But I have no idea why it takes 30 minutes to install. I assume write speed of eMMC to be 5MB/s (ok maybe it is even faster) and Armbian on SD card is about 2.1GB, so it should take ~7 minutes to copy files, plus some more minutes to finish final touches, let's say 15 minutes together. But why it takes more than 30 minutes? Is there any possibility how to reduce this time? P.S. When I am burning armbian img to SD card, in 5 minutes I am ready to go and boot the system.

I get about 15MB/s read from my samba shares. Is there a nice walk thru on how to find the bottleneck (network, disk, etc)? It's on GbE and I did a quick iperf test that was well above the 15MB/s

[H5: Nanopi neo core 2] I observe the UART Rx line to be influenced by the RTS line which I am using during sending. Is there a way to enable an internal pull-up on Rx so that this doesn't happen?

I've set up my new OPi Zero as a wireless AP running the latest Armbian build for the OPi0. It's working mostly great. My one problem I'm having is that my speeds seem to be throttled to 5-6Mbps. I connect wirelessly from my phone and run a speed test and get 5-6Mbps. If I connect directly to my router, I get 30Mbps. I have a Rpi3 set up about the same as the OPi0, and when I connect it up I get the full 30. Each time I've tested with the OPi and RPi, my phone is the only device connected. So, I've poked around online and I can't seem to figure out if it's a hardware limitation or if it's a software/driver/setting limitation. Also, if it's the latter, how/where to…

If by default, no i2c are enabled through overlays= in armbianEnv.txt, I still get i2c-1 device with addresses 0x51-0x57 occupied: root@lime2:~# ls /dev | grep i2c i2c-0 i2c-1 root@lime2:~# i2cdetect -y 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f 30: -- -- -- -- UU -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- root@lime2:~# i2cdetect -y 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f 50: UU UU UU UU UU UU UU UU -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- If I enable i2c1 through over…

I am using legacy kernel 3.4.113 with Nano-PI NEO/AIR. Up until recently every thing is fine. With NEO/AIR new boards nand-sata-install script is failing with "There is no targets". Unfortunately it is lot of work to upgrade the kernel to mainline at this stage. I greatly appreciate if anyone share the steps to fix this issue for this kernel.

Hi, I have OPi One Plus (H6) and I didn't find a way to access/control the GPIO's and the UART in the 26Pin connector. Is there a drivers release or a way to do it. thanks, Yohay

I've tried to the best of my abilities, but it seems that the current Bionic image does not support the K1 Plus wifi? Is that correct? In armbian-config there is no option to setup wireless and I cannot get the board to recognise a wlan0 device by changing the interfaces configurtation.. Is there some trick?

So I have been struggling with my new Orange Pi Zero the last couple of days, I tried everything but was unable to get it working. I followed all debugging steps I could find through google and through this form so i am at the end of the rode. I have tried 2 different SD cards, on which I ran h2testw 1.4 with the following result: Spoiler Card 1: Test finished without errors. You can now delete the test files *.h2w or verify them again.

Hi , I am finding trouble using orange pi gpios, here my approach I am trying to scan 4x4 kepad using gpio how am I writing 0 to a particular gpio pin? step 1 : sunxi_gpio_set_cfgpin(pin, SUNXI_GPIO_OUTPUT); step 2: sunxi_gpio_pullup(pin ,SUNXI_PULL_DOWN); I am not sure whether I am correct here. I am not sure if I have to use UP or DOWN or NONE here in pull up call,but I tried UP and DOWN so for. step 3: sunxi_gpio_output(pin,val); here I am using val = 0 or 1 making pin low and high depending on my requrement. in my attempts I get vague results as ou…

I have just flashed the Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4.14.y. While booting, connected to a HDMI TV/monitor, I can see the start-up text lines initializing various things and at some point (I think it is "starting kernel"), the display gets heavily corrupted with horizontal lines then it switches to a blank screen. The TV displays that it's a 1080p60Hz mode (should be compatible with the display). Any ideas? https://youtu.be/n4-TSFzBgO4

Following the suggestion that if I didn't like the documentation, I should write it myself, here is my version of what I was hoping for, (how to get started) instead of the formal definition style of a reference manual. Please feel free to correct the errors and use it how you wish. How to set up OS for development boards General This tutorial should apply to any board supported by Armbian, it uses the example of Orange Pi Prime. 0. Introduction The Prime's hardware is good, but can only work properly if the OS has all the drivers for the chips used on the board and only a few OS versions have them right. The most common fau…

Hey there. I used to run an Octoprint server on my Orange Pi Zero H2+ installed over armbian, which got swapped with a raspberry pi for unimportant reasons. I wanted to switch back, but for all of the armbian builds listed here for Orange Pi Zero, I am just getting a green light on the board and some blinking of the orange indicator only from the Ethernet Jack. Is this expected? This is happening with multiple SD-cards an two Orange Pi Zeros. All of the OS images from http://www.orangepi.org/ seem to work just fine, as well as an old "debian_server_for_orangepizero_v0_9_2.img" I found, so I'm going that route for now. But I can't image this is expecte…

Hi people, I have a problem after restarting my cubieboard, I had an installation in nand (older install with old files) and now I can not get it started. It is possible to mount that nand or repair it to restart ... Thank you

The Orange Pi Zero Plus has only a CVBS/FBAS/RCA video output, therefore I believe that only a televison but no VGA or DVI/HDMI monitor can be used (or headless use). Has anybody an idea how to convert CVBS to VGA or DVI/HDMI? L.

Hi guys, I am trying to install `ARMBIAN 5.38 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.14.14-sunxi64` to the internal MMC with `nand-sata-install` but it seems that the internal MMC is not available after booting from SD. I tried to set the `sdc_detmode` as described here: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/1702-orange-pi-plus-2e-where-is-16ghz-and-sd/?tab=comments#comment-13163 But there is no `script.bin`. Any idea on how to flash the internal MMC on a Neo Core 2? Cheers! Robert

Hey All, I moved my armbian OS from OPI H5 Zero Plus2 to OPI H5 Zero Plus (the one with the LAN), the WiFi is working perfectly but the LAN is not recognized, nor i can find any sign on dmesg or boot (but its there, i see it). ifconfig and ifconfig -a show only the "wlan0" and "lo". I am using ARMBIAN 5.64.181015 nightly Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS 4.14.76-sunxi64 with (armbian-config for Zero Plus 2) As it took me pretty much time to spin-up the OS, i would like to avoid burning a new OS. Is there a way to activate it or add/build it drivers? Many thanks

Hi All, Its been a week learning, battling and reading posts on armbian forum which was very much helpful - i now starting to master orange pi and armbian!

Hello community! I use in my project "Orange Pi Zero Plus (Alwinner H5 - 512mb)". When using the image downloaded from the official site (https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-plus/ - Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4.14.y), I get a set of errors when I boot and when I use the working OS, which I'm straining. The same mistakes I get if I build the kernel and the OS myself through "build" (linux-sunxi64-next).

Hi guys, I just started using the new Armbian release on my cubietruck and Banana Pi boards and encountered the following problem. On the Cubieboard the wired interface first did not receive any IP address at all. I than tried as alternative to connect the wireless interface through the armbian-config tool. Which did work fine. However the wired interface is now receiving the same IP address like the wireless one. Currently the only way to resolve this issue is by going again through armbian config tool. I am also experiencing the symptoms on my banana pi board except that it does not have any wireless interface. Which th…

EDIT: This seems to be a problem with the OS running on the Mikrotik router. See this thread for a work-around that "shouldn't make a difference". Hi! I've got some trouble with u-boot on an Orange Pi PC+ connecting to a Mikrotik router RB922UAGS-5HPacD, and I'm not sure where I should start digging. Here is what I have so far: Orange Pi PC+ with u-boot 2017.11-armbian installed on eMMC by running nand-sata-install. But instead of booting from eMMC, I'd like to fetch the kernel via tftp, so I modified the bootcmd accordingly. The relevant configuration / commands are: setenv ipaddr 192.168.3.74 setenv serverip 192.168.3.7…

hi, since 2 days i am using on my Banana Pi the Debian Jessie with 4.8.15 Kernel with installed Openmediavault 3. The system is working stable, but the network-performance is less then my older Installation based on Debian Wheezy with Openmediavault 2. I tried change the MTU-Size to 9000 and overcklocking up to 1.2 GHz, booth is not possible. I don´t know why ? For the setting the MTU-Size i edited /etc/network/interfaces and added the value "mtu 9000" -> no effects I tried set the MTU over the OMV WebGUI under network settings -> no effects. ifconfig shows me MTU=1500 Booth ways was at Debian Wheezy possible. At Debian Wheezy i had overclock the …

I recently ordered 3 A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-e16GB devices (with 16GB eMMC) and received rev. K boards. Unfortunately, I have troubles with both "official" Olimex eMMC rel 16 image and latest (as of last week) Armbian Stretch images. Both images booted fine from SD card (also tried multiple SD cards, one of them bought from Olimex ) and I was able to run the emmc.sh / nand-sata-install scripts fine. Now the troubles started as I turned off the device, removed the sd-card and tried to boot from eMMC. All 3 boards had entered FEL mode. From fel mode I was able to use the `sunxi-fel` utility and push the uboot fine... Initially I was able to g…

Hi, I am migrating from legacy 3.x kernel to bionic mainline 4.14 at OrangePi Zero 2 plus. Previously there is a fex files to enable or disable some features such as onboard wifi, mali, hdmi and other. now I found no ways to disable it, overlays does not include this features. Is there any way to edit dtb files? or? Thanks

Hello. Can anyone provide any hint about configuring dts for sun7i, please.

Hey Everyone , I AM completely new using armbian distribution it's interesting but I do have some question : 1- In Armbian-config > network > wlan > Bt Support (what does that mean ?

Hi guys, today i wanted to access my BPi with armbian installed remote with SSH. Terminal says: port 22: Connection refused. I'm able to ping the BPi. At least last week I was able to access the BPi with remote SSH. When i connect it via HDMI i can see the boot process until it says loading kernel - then the screen turns all black and nothing happens anymore. If I try to access some installed webservices, the browser says it can't connect. What can I do?

Recently I tested armbian stretch for orange pi lite2. If there is not other task except system, there work fine. But if there are some high cpu tasks, such as unzip, the system load will go high, and not go to lower level when task done. When the system load is higher than 4, the response of the system is laggy, when go higher, the system will go no response. I use uptime to test the system load, when boot, the 1min load will be at 3.xx and go down slowly. When no task, the load will lower than 0.5.

For some reason the reboot command doesn't appear to reboot the H3. Is this because it doesn't have a PMIC in the same way that the A20's do or is it just a case of the correct assembly instruction not being called?

Hello, I use armbian latest version on a Orange Pi Zero (256Mb) to send data from usb to network. I use Ser2net for this to stream data from a rflink device. To test I use a Metrix bench power supply, so i think power is ok. If I reboot the device with usb plugged the boot fail, so i have to boot without usb plugged and then plug usb and restart ser2net daemon to make it work. I think boot is searching for usb device, is it possible to disable this ? Next the board crash every 2 or 3 days, network stop responding and soc heatsink goes hot. I restart the device and it's good for 2 or 3 days, and crash... If it help armb…

Hello all, I cannot get stereo output from the headphone jack on this device. Until last august I had an image of debian jessie (kernel 3.x) and this was working fine (IIRC stereo was OK). I used mycroft AI to read the microphone and play sounds, also used MPD music server, blablabla etc a great configuration. Something happened during one upgrade operation and I lost my boot so I thought "why not take this opportunity to flash a new image". Mistake. BIG mistake. Now I cannot get any application to output stereo audio and also I cannot get any application to use the microphone. Can someone please help out at least gett…

I am a new owner of Nanopi K1 plus. Can someone tell me how to install a desktop version of my device?

I'm having trouble porting some WiringPi programs to my NanoPi Neo. I have an original neo v1.0 running the latest armbian stretch (as of Oct 04 2018). Have tried several, including mstroh76/WiringNP, and can compile, but programs hang when executed. I'm okay if this is the deep-end of the pool but I wanted to verify that I an indeed in deep waters or if I'm doing something dumb and really in the shallow waters and all I have to do is stand up to get my head out of the water. Which WiringPi library should I be using for C language programs on a NanoPi NEO v1.0 running a recent Armbina Stretch release?
