Hello, i have a old Banana Pi M2 with the current Armbian in use. I use the green LED with Heartbeat Signal. Today i try to connect with putty but after Username and PW nothing happen. Samba Service work normal. Then i have look at the Banana and the green LED was lightning constant and no heartbeat blinking. Maybe the trouble was because in a few meters distance sawed with a circular saw. Has perhaps caused interference or power fluctuations. No idea and maybe just coincidence. I have been using Armbian for only two days. Previously, the manufacturers ran Distribution for two years. I have Google and found out t…

Hi. I am having this issue with Orange PI PC. If it boots up when the TV it connects to over HDMI is off, I am getting blank pink screen. I guess it is because it chooses different video output when TV isn't detected. Raspbian forums suggest disabling "HDMI hotplug" by editing /boot/config.txt , but Armbian hasn't got this file. Please share your suggestions as this TV is on the wall in my kid's school at 2m height - and if it reboots due to short power failure, it needs a ladder to get fixed. Please help me before school year starts

Good morning all. I was trying to power up my nanopi M1 through the VDD_5V and GND pins shown in GPIO.jpg image and/or the power pins on the debug GPIO pins, the schematics of the board power electronics are attached too on page 7 and 8, may by I'm wrong but what I see on those schematics is that all the power switchs and DC/DC converters can be powered through those pins but when I do that using a USB cable cutted on the micro USB side and prepared with the right terminals to fit the pins -with a 5V USB charger- then the tension drops aproximatelly to 4.60-4.67 DCV, the board starts by lighting dimly the power LED (as normally) but when the power LED lights strongly also…

i have a project and i need to activate the vga output on my banapi m1. I searched the forum and found this link https://forum.armbian.com/topic/6292-banana-pi-enable-tv-outrca/ but I think it only applies to old kernel versions. The only reference I entered for these more recent versions was this https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Allwinner/#how-to-reconfigure-video-output but I don't know how to activate the video output Can someone help me? thank you

Hi, we are trying to make our Orange PI zero with custom shield working with an MCP2518FD on board with SN65HVD23 tranceiver. We started from the normal kernel already built, but according to this thread we found that it must be activated at compile time. So we downloaded the repo and built the Armbian image with this CAN configuration: CONFIG_CAN=y CONFIG_CAN_RAW=y CONFIG_CAN_BCM=y CONFIG_CAN_GW=y CONFIG_CAN_J1939=y # # CAN Device Drivers # CONFIG_CAN_VCAN=y CONFIG_CAN_VXCAN=y CONFIG_CAN_SLCAN=y CONFIG_CAN_DEV=y CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMING=y CONFIG_CAN_FLEXCAN=y CONFIG_CAN_GRCAN=y CONFIG_CAN_SUN4I=y CONFIG_CAN_TI_HECC=y CONFIG_CAN_C_CAN=y CO…

Greetings all. I am having no success getting access to gpio pins in NR using opi-gpio. I am trying to re-build a system that I messed up due to an update. The update broke access to the 1-wire host adapter I had running on I2C. I have searched and read a lot trying to find a solution but I am not making enough sense of the solutions I read to even know if they apply or if I am applying them correctly. Very frustrating because I had this working once but that was a number of versions ago for both armbian and NR. Also, the gpio pins were working even after the I2c update. In the process of 'fixing' that I started over with current armbian: mil…

Hi, I've just downloaded the July 12th image with the 3.4.108 kernel from http://www.igorpecovnik.com/2013/12/24/cubietruck-debian-wheezy-sd-card-image/. After booting from SD card i can't seem to reach ssh on this machine. I can ping it though ping times vary between 1 and 220ms. I tried to boot several times but nothing changes. With the 4.x kernel i was able to boot and ssh into. Any idea?

TKaiser. If you install the Desktop version of Armbian 5.10 then the following list of codecs (containing h.265 with 8 bit but not 10 bit!) is available for HW accelerated decoding: http://linux-sunxi.o...ed_codec_matrix Is 8 Bit versus 10 Bit a limitation. Can the Orange Pi PC with Armbian 1.10 decode all HEVC 8 or 10 bit encoding to 8 bit decoding, or can it ONLY do 8bit encoded to 8 bit decoding? Seasalt

Hi, I am looking for a solution or tutorial to help me enable splash screen for Orange Pi One. Thanks.

Hi All, Just wanted to share a good story using armbian. I have used in the past 1-wire probes for temperature, and the process included decompiling, editing and recompiling dtb for my Banana Pi M1, which was not easy at all. Every firmware update deleted by changes and had to redo de recompilation. With latest kernels and armbian version, the process is now extremely easy, just edit: /boot/armbianEnv.txt Adding this lines: overlays=w1-gpio param_w1_pin=PI3 # desired pin(7th pin (GCLK) or number 4 on first column where number 1 is +3V) param_w1_pin_int_pullup=1 # internal pullup-resistor: 1=on, 0=off …

Hi, I have orangePI connected over HDMI to my TV but there is no video. If I connect orangepi with HDMI to DVI (to my monitor) the video is present. Can someone tell me what is wrong or how to set it up?

The Volumio team is currently investigating whether our sopine64 based motivo board (https://volumio.org/epic-journey-called-volumio-motivo/) could boot from usb using SPI flash. I'm aware of the sunxi SPI developments in u-boot and mainline kernel, and that we theoretically should be able to flash the SPI-NOR chip with the correct u-boot version using FEL mode. I also read that armbian has been prepared for booting from usb (as @martinayotte mentioned in other places). My question is, did anyone actually do anything in this direction, is there something I could help testing with? I know how to compile u-boot as I've done this with armbian's u-boot ver…

I encountered a strange problem and I do not know what to do: When I am restarting my OPI with inserted USB audio card, then LIRC does not work. When I am restarting my OPI without inserted USB card and this USB card I put only later after a restart, then LIRC works. Can anyone advise how to proceed? I need to insert USB audio card permanently (it's inside the device).

The sytem acted a bit wierd, so I rebooted it. Since the moment, the server did not launch, rebooting itself again and again.

Hi all, I have no luck to get wifi work on NanoPi M1 with the usb dongle RLT8188CUS. I have followed the tutorial "OPI ONE wireless success" to config. But, I don't see any "wlan0" or wifi device at all with the usb dongle plugged in. "nmtui" does not detect any wifi device as well. It appears to me that, although armbian recognizes the usb dongle, armbian does not treat it as a wlan0 device.

Hello, I've recently purchased an Orange Pi Zero and have Armbian 5.25 (Linux version 3.4.113-sun8i). My problem is that the network fails after some time (sometimes couple of minutes but half an hour at most). I'm not able to ping it at all. I've checked the logs in /var/log and can't find what is wrong, at least to my knowledge. Here is the boot log http://sprunge.us/gRjf, so if anyone has any idea please share.

I was struggling to make SPH0645 I2S microphone to work with H3 mainline kernel (4.14.87), on NanoPi Neo Core. After weeks of distress, I finally made it work! Maybe some will find it useful. Here's what I did: 1- In file sound/soc/sunxi/sun4i-i2s.c, change the following line { SUN8I_I2S_RX_CHAN_SEL_REG, 0x00000000 } to { SUN8I_I2S_RX_CHAN_SEL_REG, 0x00001000 } You may have to download the linux-source package for your kernel version, or you can build your own kernel. It's weird that in legacy kernel, this register was assigned 0x00001000 by default (and the mic worked easily on that kernel). Not sure why it's changed. I'm not …

Hi, I installed the main line kernel for Banana Pi and connected a USB/Wifi dongle. The device connects correctly to the wireless network but becomes unreachable after a while. When the issue occures and I try to ping the device, it answers the first ping and then becomes unreachable, via Wifi interface but also via the ethernet interface. I can wait for an hour or so, then I can do a ping (only one) then the device becomes unresponsive. I have to restart the device (power on/off) in order to be able to connect via ssh, but I can work for a few minutes only, then network goes down again. I don't have a screen to connect to the…

Because today I did get my Black-Friday NanoPi Neo2 LTS 1GB I swapped my old Neo2 against this new 1Gb LTS-version. After assembling the new LTS to the fresh heatsink I did a testdrive and all went fine (network etc). So I did try to put the faceplate back on the case but it doenst fit. At the time when I did buy the case there was also a faceplate for the normal H3 Neo delivered. So for the new LTS Neo2 I had to use the faceplate for the H3-Neo, because the new LTS Neo2 has the USB-Port aligned like the H3-Neo . The old Neo2 has his USB-Port (on the main Neo2-PCB) a bit shifted against the Network-port. Also the new LTS …

It is possible to drag backlight control slider to far left position and this completely dims the screen's backlight. This might cause a lot of trouble, if backlight levels get saved by systemd service, as it will persist across reboots and will require you to shine a flashlight on a screen to actually see something and turn backlight back on.

I'm running an OrangePi One. Having installed Armbian a while ago and gone through all the updates, I was wondering if there is any way to determine what equivalent release my installations are at. I noticed that 5.20 is out and some folks are talking about 5.21. I'm running Jessie. Also, for me to use a more recent version of Debian, I'm guessing I would have to build the image myself? Is that due to shortcomings in the 4.x kernels on the H3 platform? I've done some digging and it seems like many (most) things are working right on the 4.x kernels? Thank you James

Hi gang. I am having a consistent problem changing the board over boot from the SD with the system on any kind of USB attached drive. The drive I want to put it on is a 1t ssb, which otherwise formats fine, over and over again, burns images on it fine (though rpi doesn't like how much power it grabs). But I duplicated the problem with a formatted SD card in a reader in the USB port as well. The same error message appeared. Now I have to say that I have read this post here: to see if there was anything unique to the H3 to accomplish this, but Igor said there to just follow the simple directions at Getting Started, which though dated, still work close…

Hi! I need some help. I built a little torrent server, home media center from opipcplus. It runs transmission all day all night with a heatsink and it keeps the cpu temp under 55°. But if i start kodi or other player the temp jumps to the sky near 80°. i bought a cooling fan and with the heatsink it keeps the cpu under 35° without any problem. its great but it noisy and frustrating. How can i control the pins to automatic turn on and off the fan? can someone send a script or anything help? thank you

I have a Orange PI PC Plus that isn't booting either from sd or emmc. I had really messed up some configuration, so I erased emmc. After I erased EMMC, I started to get this boot screen. https://photos.app.goo.gl/EbJX43eSATyqTEau8 If I insert a sd card in with the latest Armbian, I get no boot screen, or activity at all. In fact, even if I format the card, and insert it into the OP+ it gets no boot activity. It is only after that I remove the card that it can then boot from usb flash. I ended up writing the latest orangepiplus image to a usb flash drive, and am able to get it to boot via a flash drive. I did backup my microsd install a …

Hello guys. After a long time unsuccesfully trying to use a NanoPi Neo to record I2S data, I wonder if is there some NanoPi board that is capable of such thing. Can you suggest one? Thank you very much!

Hi to All, Today I try to re-build Armbian (with legacy kernel 3.4 and Debian Jessie) customized by me a week ago and get into trouble to buld and boot it. I am fixing also: BOOTBRANCH=v2015.10 REVISION="5.05" At build process I see that kernel was migrated from version 3.4.110 to 3.4.111 but it builds with no problems. Unfortunately, USB redirector build did not succeed displaying bunch of errors: [ o.k. ] Installing external applications [ USB redirector ] In file included from /data/armbian-legacy/sources/usb-redirector-linux-arm-eabi/files/modules/src/tusbd/usbd.h:67:0, from /data/armbian-legacy/sources/usb-redirector-linux-arm-eabi/files/mo…

ARMBIAN 5.41 user-built Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.14.34-sunxi, Orange Pi Zero board. Very limited Debian installed, wifi doesn't work. I found lines install xradio_wlan /bin/false install 8189es /bin/false in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and removed it. In /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf I added the lines 8189es xradio_wlan. No help, wi-fi didn't work, nothing about xradio or wifi in dmesg. I figured out that there was no drivers (modules) for wifi. Found this article https://linux-sunxi.org/Wifi I execute the commands from the article, section RTL8189ES / RTL8189ETV The driver has its own repository: git clone https://github.com/jwrdegoede/rtl8189ES_li…

Hello, I have 2 Orange Pi Zero boards, one with 256MB RAM and one with 512MB RAM. I tried running both: Armbian_5.25_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113.img and Armbian_5.24.170110_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_4.9.0.img, but the same thing happens. When I power on the OPZ, a few seconds later the Red LED starts blinking and doesn't stop... The issue is present on both boards. Any suggestions?

Dear Сommunity, I've got an Orange Pi Zero Plus2, it has a WiFi only, no an Ethernet interface. But I want to use a TFTPBoot for my project. That's why I've got two questions: How I can configure/compile U-Boot with WiFi support? And how I can configure it for usage with TFTPboot? Kind regards, Bread Lee

Hello Igor, I have a question, does the image has a built in NFS kernel module? I would like to use my CB2 board as an NFS server. Thanks PS.: on the site a small list about compiled kernel modules would be usefull

Hello, I'm trying to set up the video streaming on Banana Pi M2. I tried all of the available images, but I can't find the image where the kernel includes ov5640.ko and sunxi_csi0(1).ko modules. The instruction on banana-pi.org said that I only need to load these two modules, but they are not included in images... The only image, where the ov5640 works is the Android 4.4 from banana-pi.org, but it is not fast enough. Do you have any experiences with that, or suggestions about how to run this? Kind regards, CottonEye_Joe

Hi to all! I'm taking my first steps with an Orange Pi PC+. Before I did projects with raspberry pi, but the extra functionality provided by emmc memory has made me decant for orange pi. So my problems are related to the compatibility of gpio functionality. I have two SPI devices (TFT and RFID reader), and I want use PA21 pin for SPI1_CS. I changed /boot/script.bin file for second SPI activate adding this lines: [spi1] spi_used = 1 spi_cs_bitmap = 1 spi_cs0 = port:PA21<2><1><default><default> spi_sclk = port:PA14<2><default><default><default> spi_mosi = port:PA15<2>…

I have perfectly equal Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 H3 boards in their original case - booting from eMMC. Test conditions are: WiFi Hotspot enabled, HDMI off, CPU idle, CPU governor: performance, CPU freq. 240MHz - 1.1 GHz, kernel 4.14.84 Xiaomi Mi5 Charger as psu, 2.4A usb cable armbianmonitor gives me a temp of ~50°C on one board (idle@1.1GHz) and a temp of 65°C on the other board (same conditions, CPU starts throttling here to ~960 MHz). The temp gets so high, that after an apt-get update/upgrade and reboot the opizero plus2 would not boot with an error msg that the temp is too high. The temp seems to be correct more or less, since …

Hi, Is there any reason why the card is only initialized as high speed SDHC on this board? On my phone, it is initialized as ultra high speed SDR104 SDHC. I'd like to know if there's anything I need to do to maximize the card's performance on this board. Thanks.

I installed the image Armbian_20.08.1_Orangepiplus2e_focal_current_5.8.5_desktop.img on my Orange PI Plus 2E and I installed RetroArch to setup a retro gaming board. Everything installed ok but all games even weak games like for Super Nintendo, are running slow and no audio, does anyone here already tried to get RetroArch working on this board? Audio is not working , it uses pulseaudio and it's installed already. I already tested RetrOrange Pi image, it uses Armbian too I guess, most of the games runs at full speed, the reason I am not using is that is a little outdated, some emulators doesn't work and some are missing and I personally …

Hello. During the Italian pandemic lockdown I am building a mini cluster with some boards that I have found in my house. I have three OrangePi and one Nanopi Fire3. I assembled them in a box and I connected them via ethernet. I connected the monitor on a OrangePi One plus. The keyboard and mouse are on a blouetooth usb key. I would like to have all Armbian (for the reasons that you all know!). I installed all SD with Armbian Images. Every SBC has the text file with fixed ip parameters. All the network files (etc/network/interface) are well written and in the local network all Armbians are pinging each other ones. I reach them via SSH and they talk with the one that has th…

I've been reading on the forums on the possibility of having multiple OSes inside 1 EMMC for the Opi PC+. From what I understand, inside a typical EMMC installation, it has 3 partitions: 1) Bootloader partition, which runs first and starts the main partition 2) main partition, contains OS files 3) unallocated free space suppose I have 2 devices: 1. Armbian Jammy Server 2. Armbian Jammy Desktop Now I want to make another device that has 2 OS partitions, like so: 1) Bootloader 2) 1st OS main partition, 3) 2nd OS main partition, 4) unallocated free space I'm thinking of using DD to extract the …

I want to understand the feasibility of installing Armbain on a board that is currently Tina Linux. The board has an Allwinner R528 processor and an emmc . The R528 is not a well known Allwinner processor but it is essentially a D1 with two Arm-a7 processors instead of a RISCV processor. It also is a essentially the same processor as a T113-s3 but in a different physical package. I see the mangopi-mq and the nehza have the D1, but I'm not sure it helps. I have a full dts file (3000+ lines) for this board. But what I am failing to get a grasp of is: Given that I that I have a complete dts file, what is the work flow to get Armbian…

Hi, I successfully installed owncloud on the Cubietruck. Because of owncloud, I decided to give jessie a try, since there are more packages I need already included. Got all that working. Now, I wanted to make the Cubietruck into a wireless AP following the instructions in the FAQ on Igor's blog. However, i am getting nowhere. After boot, hostapd seems to be running: ps -elf | grep hostapd 1 S root 677 1 0 80 0 - 1040 poll_s 18:25 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/hostapd -B -P /run/hostapd.pid /etc/hostapd.conf However, the SSID is not picked up by any client, so it seems as if it is not braodcast. However, it is not hidden either, since I cannot …

Hi everyone. I have an Orange Pi Zero. 1. I installed legacy kernel to my SD card (downloaded from https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero/ ) 2. I made updates & upgrades. Afterwards, I downloaded WiringOP-Zero from https://github.com/xpertsavenue/WiringOP-Zero 3. Now here comes to problematic part. I checked my files as ls -aol /dev/spi* and could see spidev0.0 and spidev1.0. Then I wrote a test program for my SPI pins (MOSI-MISO-CLK), I can compile the program but whenever I try to use spidev1.0 I get this error below : Unable to open SPI device: No such file or directory …

Hello, The NanoPi Neo 2 has an H5 SoC. When I look at the Linux mainlining effort chart at Sunxi, I see that Ethernet support for the H5 only came in the 4.15 kernel. But the kernel in the Armbian downloads for the NanoPi Neo 2 only have the 4.14.y kernel. So can one expect the GbE to work, on a NanoPi Neo 2, with the current Armbian (Bionic or Stretch)? Maybe you already backport the 4.15 Ethernet-related code (for the H5) into that 4.14.y kernel?

Hello, Is there any way to programmatically interact with HDMI on Banana Pi/Pro? Ideally I would like the following: Learn the current state of the HDMI monitor (and/or receive notifications): not connected, connected and turned off (in standby), connected and turned on. Turn off the HDMI monitor (put to standby). Turn on the HDMI monitor (exit standby). Thank you in advance!

I'm trying to build an A2DP server from either OPi Lite or Zero (whichever seems easier). As neither board has BT built-in I'm planning on using some cheap USB BT dongle. Web stores are filled with dongles, but info about their compatibility with Linux (and especially Armbian's legacy kernel) is not that readily available. Has anyone found a dongle that "just works" with OPi Lite or Zero? If yes, care to share e.g. Ali Express link or similar?

I am trying out the latest Armbian Debian Buster release for a Nanopi Neo Air. It is working fine. I've loaded Armbian into the eMMC and I can boot off of it. I have done `apt update && apt upgrade`.

If I convert rootfs to btrfs do I need to rebuild /boot/initrd.img-5.4.20-sunxi. E.g. is it enough to convert ext4 to btrfs on another PC and replace rootfstype=ext4 by rootfstype=btrfs in /boot/armbianEnv.txt? Armbian 2020.02.1 mainline with default kernel, orange pi plus I need a compression because OPI+ supports cards up to 32 Gb only. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I used to run a RPi3 as a VPN and DNS-Server (PiHole) and it worked like a charm. Since the RPI3 is a bit oversized for this work I bought a NanoPi Neo 512MB and installed armbian Ubuntu 4.9.x, but I have some issues with it: - eth0 is only connected by 100/half duplex. I can set it manually to full duplex with autoneg off, but after a few secondes it falls back to 10(!) half duplex. with autoneg on it comes back to 100 half duplex (the amber led is off; cable and switch are ok) - the MAC-Adress is changing every reboot. I have to fix it manually - I can set up Pihole to use the Nanopi as a DNS-Server and it works well in the LAN, until I connect over openVP…

I have a windows 7 laptop and the A20 cubietruck board with Mainline 4.9.7 Debian Jessie and I need to achieve an ssh connection between them via a wireless router.On cubietruck I have installed opnssh-client and openssh-server and have checked that it listens to port 22. On windows I try with putty to connect to board via ssh. The connection is done , I give username and password but then it freezes and I cannot access any of the folders of the debian. I also tried the mobaxterm but the same result. Does anyone has an idea of what I have done wrong?
