I have used lots in my time but recently changed to this. I can't get RKMC to access my shared folders because, when I enter the address with back slashes it changes them into forward slashes. With VLC it works perfectly but is unusable without sorting by descending date. Why does it swap the slashes/??? I prefer RKMC to VLC

Hello guys I have a rk3288 POS with Android 7 I heard that the board can run Linux on it who can help me ?

edit: Found the solution Got this tv box "x88pro 10" repurposed to run armbian by someone and it demands login/password. The default one(root 1234) doesn't work. Also I can't seem to stop the loading process and get to grub to try and delete passwords manually from there(tried pressing random keys during boot, tried holding shift). Please help And also point me to an armbian image I could use in case I fail to reset the password Armbian version it runs atm is 22.05.0-trunk Bullseye tech specs are: RK3318 Quad-Core 64bit Cortex-A53, Penta-Core Mali-450 up to 750Mhz, 2 or 4Gb ram

I have a "G96 mini" box that is bricked, I don't know its history but wrong firmware is a likely candidate- It contains a RK3228A and 08emcp08-el3cv100 ram & flash in a single chip. After some investigation I found how to boot from SD, boot in maskrom mode and access it with AndroidTool and capture the serial messages. I found very little info about this specific box, only that looks similar to the H20 mentioned in this thread: I tried all the bootloaders I could find including multitool-1.11 and the armbian indicated in that thread and this is what happens: DDR Version V1.11 20200910_dbg …

Hi does anyone have backup of images by balbes150 from below topic? All the links seems to point to a dead end. Even the web archive has nothing so would be grateful if anyone could provide the images. Thanks!

Hello people, I'm trying to compile armbian to run on my TV Box. If I use the image Hinlink ht2 I can boot without problem, but if I try to compile my version of Armbian, the tv box does not boot.

Hello there, I upgraded the newest kernel (`linux-image-current-rockchip64 arm64 24.8.0-trunk.332`) today. Something went wrong and it is failing to find the rootfs and drops in to initramfs shell. Attached are the update logs and login images. How do I fix this? Thanks apt-update.txt

When i boot on TV box armbian jammy (mis match version on th board). I try to reboot multitool from sd card but not work and i cann't install another version. Time in the screen freeze in yester day. Please told me the command to boot from sd card.

Hi all, Firstly I want to state this this post in not about an Armbian device. I am posting here though, as it seems to be one of the most relevant places that I can find. Also, I want to commend the help and engagement that seems to be offered here, it reminds me of a good old fashion forum (clearly I have been spending far too much time on Reddit lately..) haha Ok, so the situation is - I have an Android e-reader tablet that is powered by a RK3566 chipset. Upon tinkering I got it stuck in a bootloop, then in my efforts to "fix" it I deleted the userdata partition (via fastboot) and now the computer doesn't even detect the device at all. I now bel…

Tried to flash it with common Rockchip Box technique with no luck (tried some roms from Armbian, firefly, and some OpenWRT method ... refer Fig. 1.5, 1.6). Anyone who can give some pointer will be much appreciate. Known techniques: - enter recovery mode = plug in the HDMI, use screw driver to poke the inner "hidden button" in audio jack, and plug power - working - another way of getting into the recovery mode = using the command "adb reboot recovery" from either network or USB type C - not able to flash - enter bootloader mode = using the command "adb reboot bootloader" from either network or USB type C - don't know how this work - enter…

Hi. i have two cheap TV boxes with rk3228a. installed armbian community 24.8.0 trunk 36 rk322x bookworm current 6.6.32 minimal img and loader "rk322x_loader_v1.10.238_256.bin" using "rkdeveloptool" with commands rkdeveloptool db loadername.bin rkdeveloptool wl 0x0 imagname.img the first boot was fine and started normally. when rebooted the device, it's just dead. only blue LED and blinking red LED. but nothing! and the device wont go on Maskmod to try another img or something!!

I realize this is probably a nob question and I am missing something here, but I haven't been able to find any answer to this problem, even though I was digging really hard. Whenever a streaming app allows you to see screen resolution in the settings, in my case it always shows 1080p even though all of my TVs are 4k. Same goes for Kodi, Cpuz also shows 1080p only. It is my 3rd Chinese Rockchp Box (this time HK1 RK 3528), and it has allways been the same, the prevoius ones even stuttered when playing 4k. Am I doing something wrong, or is it just jet another Chinese scam?

Hello everyone, My university recently purchased a few hundred of these RK3288-based tablets. They're used to display room schedules, control printer confiurations, and control TV inputs throughout our engineering and computer science buildings. The buildings are littered with them; you can't walk 10 feet in any direction without passing one mounted on the wall. Given that they have cameras and microphones, and they run an ancient Android, maybe this wasn't a great idea... Anyway, the no-name eMMC on these things tends to go bad pretty quickly, and the board has no microSD slot, so SD booting is not an option. The university has given me access to …

Hi, as I posted some time ago I can't boot multitool on this box using SD card. I just tested both LibreELEC-RK322x.arm-10.0-nightly-20230925-65bd849-rk322x.img and LibreELEC-RK322X.arm-11.0-nightly-20240218-d7324fb-rk322x.img and they both seem to work fine except that 10.0 doesnt support wifi chip. I wanted to try (again) to install to internal or install ARMBIAN using multitool but it doesnt boot at all (screen is blank, cant remember if I have to do something else) yet LibreElec images boot fine. Am I missing something? I thought that multitool boot was "fixed" on my device. What can I do to boot multitool on this box, or help to diagnose what is the prob…

I have an H96Max RK3318 box which I flashed with Armbian. Is there a way to switch back to Android (original firmware). With the original firmware, pressing the reset button at power connection would take the box into recovery mode. This is not the case for Armbian, so not sure how I can flash back Android on this box?

So I just bought a DQ08 and an app I want to play doesn't because it says my device is rooted .I ve tried super su and managed to delete su and daemon su files from system but nothing seems to be working .Any suggestions to how unroot the device or may even download fresh firmware?

Hi everyone, I would like to ask if it is possible to dual boot Linux on an Android TV Box without removing Android? I would like to start an ARM-type Linux distribution on this device specific for this kind of low-power devices; My model is: Bqeel R2 Plus CPU: RK3318 quad core RAM: 4GB 64GB ROM I should use a fast micro SD card to run the operating system on;

New to armbian, I have a H96Max Android TV Box, Initially I flashed it with Armbian_23.11.1_Rock-3a_bookworm_current_6.1.63_gnome_desktop but there was no signal in HDMI, I then flashed it with Armbian_22.05.0-trunk_Rk3318-box_jammy_current_5.15.35_xfce_desktop and Armbian_22.02.0-trunk_Rk3318-box_bullseye_edge_5.15.16_minimal, on both the image I was able to get the armbian running. The issue now I am facing is, in both the cases the WIFI is detected and SSIDs are listed but when I try to connect with password with router, it fails, I double checked if I am using the correct WIFI security. I tried connecting with hotspot on iPhone but having same issue, However if I enab…

Hello, I do have a X88 and stopped working, only red light, and nothing else. After watching many videos on Youtube, found that there was a semiconductor getting really hot, and there is a short on in/out. I am sure there is a replacement for that, but the problem is that I cannot find the part number or anything. Attached, picture with a circle on that. Anyone have any idea which semiconductor is that ? This is 5 PIN (3+2). Appreciated it.

I've been trying to get armbian to work on a rk3228a tv box but after flashing multitools on a sd card with balena etcher I insert it into the slot and it just refuses to boot, the status led just stays red and nothing happens. What is going wrong?

I have purchased the following board, named H20 from AliExpress: https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005005623753864.html I could boot the multitool for RK322x by holding the reset button, then selecting boot menu from Android's bootloader. After installing an armbian release, the board does no longer boot, and a red LED turns on immediately after giving power. I would like to try other Armbian images, but, I am no longer able to boot the multitool as I no longer have access to the Android bootloader, which I assume has been deleted by flashing the new ROM. Also, any attempt at booting the multitool on an SD card are failing. Does the SD card have p…

Hi, im thinking about a new low budget tablet with RK3562 to use with Armbian. The main points would be to have the console output on the LCD and maybe also the usability of touch for direct input. There is already someone that own a similar product? (tablet with soc RK3562 or just RK) Im newbie about serial console and debugging, eventually the unlock of bootloader will be a big job or the RK share compatibility in some aspects of booting and more? I found out that there is already a NPU support on github for the RK3562 (rknpu2 repo) Thanks for the replies to all.

I've installed Armbian legacy kernel 4.4.194-rk322x on a Rockchip box (RK3229, SSV6051 wireless chip). Most things have worked thus far but I've hit a major roadblock with the network interfaces. Output of nmcli shows that all devices are unmanaged (this includes ethernet). I've tried several remedies: - explicitly setting a managed connection (nmcli device set wlan0 managed yes) has no effect: the device remains unmanaged - in the file /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf the option of setting devices to be managed by NM was already set to true (managed=true). I have changed this to false and back with no change in either scenario …

Good afternoon guys, can anyone help me unbrick my TV Box H96 RK3318 version Android 10? So I'm trying to flash the firmware but every time I get the error: Prepare IDB Fail Another thing, it is not necessary to short the pins to enter Maskrom mode as it enters this mode without doing anything.

I bought this TV set-top box the other day in order to install armbian and install klipper for a 3d printer, however, my board is a little different from others and when I try to flash through multitool, the red indicator lights up and flashes yellow, I bought a set-top box with 1 GB of ram because this is enough for a Klipper (RK3228a, 1gb ram, 8gb memory), I hope very much for your help!

Hi @jock, i see multitool source on your github page, would you mind to write a guide to use it or patch it to run armbian without wiping the android os (to run armbian from sdcard) specifically for rk3318 ? in this case i want to run Armbian_23.5.1_Rk3318-box_jammy_current_6.1.30.img.xz

Good evening, after i tried to play armbian image on the box it doesn't start anymore. this doesn't seem to be that rare with this model and now i want to put the box in maskrom mode, because otherwise it will not be recognized by the pc.

Hi, I've got this old board from 2015/2016 with an rk3229. It is running Android 6 with a Linux kernel version 3.x compiled for the rk322x family. The board is branded as Leelbox Q1 but on the PCB it is marked as an MXQ-Q1. I have not found much info about either on this forum. I've tried the multitool image, along with three or four minimal armbian images (both current, legacy and even some builds from 2019) but nothing seems to boot. When I use the multitool image I think I get the furthest, as the ethernet lights turn on but then I get no output on my screen. I was wondering if some of you have experience with this kind of board or have …

Picked up a couple of these over at the local second hand store... https://www.aopen.com/AU_en/products_info/Chromebox-Mini My guess is that these were digital signage oriented, as they were in a crate with a few Startech USB-DVI adatpers, etc... Anyways - they're end-of-support for ChromeOS... There's a couple of posts over on Alpine to get things running there... It's close enough to TinkerBoard to maybe do some effort, and with Chromeboxes/Chromebooks on the same SoC/BSP...

Hello people, At this point the Mekotronics R58 is a RK3588 box that supports the following OS: - Debian - Ubuntu - Android 12 - Reborn OS (not on Mekotronics site yet, it's pretty recent, but from the download links at Leepspvideo's latest video on the R58X) I wonder, with the information and builds that are available already, wouldn't it possible to create an Armbian version now? I tested the official Debian version from Mekotronics site and it looks pretty slick, but it has some Wayland issues (not running/installing some standard SW like Gimp, but everything on the board looks and works great).

Hello, I have a rk322x TV box. I installed multitool on it. I put the armbain img file in the images file. A black screen appears when the TV box boots

I have a RK3328 android tv box. After flashing new firmware to it, using Rockchip Batch Tool, the box, connected to the tv, shows briefly RK3328 logo on tv screen, and then black screen. After that, I connect the box to the computer using usb cable, without pressing reset button on the box. Rockchip Batch Tool software, under the Connected Device, shows a green symbol. It shouldn't, because I didn't press the reset button on android tv box. It's like android tv box is in reset mode, and I didn't put it in reset mode. It's like there is a short somewhere that puts it in reset mode. And, maybe that is the reason the box doesn't boot up normally, but has a bl…

Hi guys, I have an x88pro 10 with a debian bulleye installation. I bought an external lcd touchscreen monitor to control my klipper printer with Klipperscreen.

Hi, I want to begin saying that I am an absolute newbie and I don't even know how I managed to get the installation process right. And also, I'm not a native English speaker so I apologize in advance for not making myself understandable. I had a Vontar X88 Pro tv box lying around that was pretty much unusable by itself, found this forum by chance and decided to give it a go and install armbian on the box and turn it into a small computer (that I really need by the way, I don't have a pc and I'm typing this post on a broken phone). The installation process has gone smoothly even though I got it wrong the first time and I had to do everything all over again. I …

Hi, I decided to switch from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 on my MVR9 (Rockchip 3328). The previous version (Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_focal_current_5.9.0.img.xz) that I had used, had been realized by Balbes150. Today, I installed the image for the Station M1 by Balbes150 (Armbian_23.02.0-trunk_Station-m1_jammy_edge_6.2.0.img.xz) on my MVR9, and everything works except the blue front led that no longer automatically turns on when I agree the PC. I wanted to know if you can tell me which files it is necessary to modify so that the blue LED turns on when the PC is on and that turns off when the PC is turned off. MVR9 has only one LED (Blue). It seems th…

Hi I'm currently running Armbian on my Minix NEO X7 box. The video works, but I can't really get the ethernet working. The reason for it is that the ethernet is controlled by some of the GPIO pins, so basically the ethernet chip (not onboard, it has an USB external onboard chip) is shut down by the GPIO. I've tried to extract the dts file from my Android ROM without any luck, mainly because the kernel of the image (Finless ROM v1.7) is too old to even contain one. Does anyone have any working dts file that would bring the ethernet port back to life, or do I have to bypass the GPIO, so I can access the ethernet? Thanks for all the replies

The image I'm starting with is here: https://www.t95plus.com/forums/downloads/Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_soquartz_jammy_current_5.19.7.img.gz This is the only image I've had any success booting a SOQuartz from microsd card. In fact, the *only* card that will work is very specifically a 32GB Sandisk Ultra A1 U1. No other type of card will boot; not even a 16GB version of same Sandisk series. Baffling. This, however, is not my main issue. The problem is that I have single option for sd card which is forcing me to make sure the image will even fit onto another card -- or Balena Etcher will complain that the drive is too small. This only happens sometim…

I got an Armbian image from this thread. The image works wonderful, the only thing I would like to do is to install the system to the internal NAND of the device. I have something simillar to Minix Neo x7 mini, with RK3188 SoC. As I say, the image works perfectly, I just wanna know if there's any way to transfer that image directly onto the internal NAND so I don't have to use the SD card. If you need anything I can provide, I will try my best to get it and post it here. Thanks for any future response. Peace

Hi, I recently flashed armbian on the emmc of this tv box and noticed that the reported size of the internal memory is 16GB and the RAM is 1GB. Now the tv box specs should actually be 64GB and 4GB of RAM. Now I'm not sure if this is a case of a software issue, or what I suspect being fake specs reported. Is there a way I can make sure which case it is? I also opened the box and took a pic of the inside where you can see the RAM modules. There are 8 of them, 4 on each side. I'm not entirely sure about their capacity, maybe you can help me figure it out. If oyu need any other information I will provide, let me know if there is any other way to find …

Hi, I am a total newb with a few too many holes in my ozone layer. I have managed to use the Multitool and an image of Armbian from Inovato that runs on their Quadra SBC. I have managed to get my old H96Max to run software called WSJT-X from Joe Taylor and his team at Princeton. I have had a lot of fun and am still having a lot of fun running the H96Max (RK3318) the radio is a small rig called the QDX from QRP Labs. I run it (the computer) off a Powerbank and although it doesn't always boot it is very much a 'less is more' machine for my mind and is grand 99% of the time. I would like to be able to run X11vnc on boot/power up and not have to use ANY machine through a 19" …

Good evening guy's and happy New year.......Need some help to install armbian 22.05 jammy in tvbox mxq-4k ....... I have installed successfully 21.08 buster with multitool.... When ill try to install jammy i have error...i suppose run only legacy version and not find this version......little help to fix kernel

Has anyone tried the latest version Jammy with legacy 4.19 kernel and edge with 5.16 kernel? I've tried the firmware on my 3566 BOX with dtb replaced with the dtb from the box. It is strange that the 5.16 kernel can't boot but the legacy kernel works very well. Here is the log of the boot. It blocks after "Failed to get pclk for 'rk_timer'" Is the same issue occurs on Station M2? Starting kernel ...

Hi is it possible for a tvbox RK3318 with armbian OS (jammy current 5.15.35 xfce) to run an ftp server?

Hi Folks, I know this is not the right place to ask for help as I'm not using Armbian Device. My device is Rockchip RK3288, it was working fine until I decided to do an OS upgrade. Accidentally ROM didn't install correctly and now the device is nearly bricked. I'm searching the web for the past 2 months to try any method which can help me to return the board to a working state. This forum is the active which I came across. The issue I tried to Install a new untested ROM over a working ROM and the device isn't booting UP, whenever I'm trying to boot nothing happens also RK Android Tool isn't able to detect the device. The issue is …

I've tried to run Armbian on HK1RBOX V2 with the latest Jammy version (Nov 30,2022). I just replaced the dtb with the one extracted from HK1RBOX V2 firmware. Here is the result -- Jammy XFCE desktop with kernel 4.19 -- Work fine. Need to copy wifi driver from the original firmware to have wifi function. Jammy XFCE desktop with kernel 5.19 -- Blocked.

Hey guys, i am in trouble with my device (T95Plus, rk3566). Its no longer detected by windows using the usb-otg cable and Android Tool. So i can't reflash the original firmware. I compiled a custom u-boot for rk3566 with bootefi command added. I copied it over to partition 2 of the emmc where the original u-boot was located. Since then its broken. I thought its bricked, but DigitalDaz told me, its only softbricked. Anyway it logs the output over the uart port very well. Its first searching on sdcard for an SPL (secondary program loader) partition and fails, then tries the internal eMMC. It says no misc partition found. I foun…

EDIT: This how-to is slightly out-of-date, because now the complete images for RK3318 boxes are available here. Thanks to community, especially to @jock. Hello all, I would like to summarize the required steps to boot armbian on device with RK3318 chip. I have a X88 Pro device already mentioned here. I am quite skilled but information are spread in many posts and I spent lot of time to have a clear picture. Note that instructions below are valid at this time when I am writing it - some things can change in the time... And hope linux is your friend... You need 4 files: Armbian image (Links to download armbian image i…

hiya folks! I have a no-brand (MK - 918?) RK3188 Android TV box that I'm trying to install Armbian, but I can't get it to boot Multiboot nor the Armbian image from the SD card. I have tried different SD cards and USB sticks, I am burning the Multitool image with balenaEtcher, but no luck, it boots straight to Android. I have also tried the solution posted by fabiobassa but the program gets stuck on "Downloading bootloader...". here's some more info: ➜ lsusb Bus 001 Device 009: ID 2207:310b Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Company RK3188 in Mask ROM mode ➜ sudo ./rkdeveloptool ld DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x310b,LocationID=102 Loader ➜ sudo ./rkdeveloptool rd…

Hello to everyone and greetings for the great work they do, just to tell them about the experience of having armbian, installed in my tv box, to the purpose the operating system I have installed it in a tv box, with rk322x processor, of 1gb branch and 8 storage, so far it is working with normal detail to the following: wifi: works with your own wifi, if I put external antenna (door dongle) also works the same. bluetooth: it works perfectly with outside dongle. searched by voice with external microphone (in fact the tv box, has not incorporated), works perfectly with ob-type sound card. print documents? of course, with any printer connected to the ob port. scan d…

Yo guys Recently I've aventured myself into building and installing Arch Linux ARM on my RK3229 MXQ 4K box. It works! Running mainline kernel and U-Boot! Does anyone else tried it or want to? I'm thinking about writing a walkthrough or kinda. This is my first topic here in the forum Thanks for reading this! :)

Just burned the station m2 release onto EMMC and sadly found that there is no saveenv command. I used Ctrl-c to interrupt the u-boot into command line mode.

Hello dudes from italian Far East! I'm just starting to explore the sauvage world of modding as the early step of a noob, than I politely apologize in advance for my questions. I have a little and economic TV box RK322X-based, working (not so fine) with an Android 6 custom ROM. I will try to switch it to Armbian but, at the same time, I'll like to prove it for a while without any change. Is possible (and fine working) burn an USB stick for make it? Is it correctly and extensively explained in the forum and I'm only too lazy to search? Thanks in advance.

wanted to load balbes150's images but none of his repositories have the tool and my googlefu is apparently shite thanks

Hello to all recently i installed armbian in a tvbox. Everything worked fine, except the infrared and the wifi, i used it with ethernet. Suddenly after a reboot i got an error Missing modules (cat proc/modules: Is /dev) ALERT UUID-16bb1d19-3ee3-119r-Be32-9920fr7d190a does not exist. Dropping to a shell! It is the second time this happened. After this if i boot from sd flash is not recognised to restored a backup, must install android and go from the beginning again. Any ideas? Thanks

How can I force the resolution on these boards? My board is RK3318 (x88 pro 10) The board is not automatically getting the maximum resolution the HDMI monitor can show. Is Armbian preventing this somewhere? Can I set this somewhere I am no expert. Any help would b appreciated. u-boot? armbianEnv.txt?

Hey all, anyone had any luck getting a PS3 Eye camera working with this distribution? I'm running an MXQ Pro Rockchip box, and while more modern webcams seem to be plug-n-play, I'm having no joy with the good old PS3 Eye. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi guys, To begin, a big thanks to all devs! Unbelievable work done so these boxes do not end up in a landfill of recycle bin. maybe this has been answered before but in this vast ocean of information I must admit I am drowned! I read the instructions and successfully flashed my box but when I run "sudo rk322x-config" I can only choose the CPU and eMMC then it ends and I am back to terminal prompt. I can see in the config screen that the WiFi chip is recognised as "south silicon valley 6051p 6256p" but I can't enable it. Under connections I can only see ethernet. What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance! …

Hello friends. i have an mxq 4k i installed the Armbian Buster (https://www.armbian.com/rk322x-tv-box/) I did everything right, I tried to install hassio, it installed the docker, I waited 1 hour +- and I can't access ipdabox:8123 can someone help me solve my problem?

i have armbian image Armbian_21.11.0-trunk_Rk3318-box_bullseye_edge_5.14.14_minimal.img installed on an N5 Nova TV box. I tested it running from the sd card and it works fine and reboots without any issues. however, when i installed it to the eMMC using the burn image selection from Mulitool, it boots the first time OK but then never boots on its own afterwards. My only recourse was to re-install it to an sd card again Has anyone seen this issue and any comments would be greatly appreciated

Hi Jock (Paolo) I had sent a private message, but later I saw many messages from Charles Bauer, heading a project where I am also involved. Here, we are receiving some hundreds of TV BOX, MXQ PRO, model 3228A (probably 1 of RAM and 8 of ROM) and with the task to transform it a Linux machine. Well, this task requires some scalability to do this conversion following a methodology. What I had thought: 1. Install the ARMBIAN in one these box, and configure it with all desired customizations 2. Do a back-up of this box using the Multitool (option for backup) I saw that the Multitool did a copy of whole eMMC (or NAND) memory... resulting in a file…

Hi Jock, Your replies are keeping this forum active. My box is not rooted, however can boot by multitool. Can we dump tv box boot.img or extract tv box kernel using the multitool so that i can get dtb. I can see /proc/partitions but not as "by-name"
