Allwinner CPU Boxes

Hello, sorry for my very bad english. I recently I bought a TV box with an h618 processor And I want to install Linux to make it a server but I only find images for the h616 processor, can I install one of these images on my TV box? It seems that the h616 processor and the h618 procesador are almost the same Thanks :D

So i have a x96q with a h313 coming soon. I got it from https://www.temu.com/goods.html?_bg_fs=1&goods_id=601099525915611 the specs are CPU: Allwinner H313 Quad Core ARM Cortex A53 GPU: G31 OPenGL3.2 OS: Android 10.0 RAM: 1GB/2GB ROM: 8GB/16GB Wi-Fi version: 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n Resolution standard: 4K How would I go about installing this. I read that bigtreetech-cb1 works, but no wifi. Is this the best option?

Currently working on a build for this device. It boots and is about 90% functional on 6.6 and 6.7 Kernel https://github.com/sicXnull/armbian-build/tree/X96Q-TVBOX-LPDDR3 Working - Desktop - Ethernet - Wifi Not working - DTS could use some work. Right now it does not detect internal EMMC so installing to EMMC is not an option. - Likely other things i've missed. I've uploaded two images to my git. Full w/Mate Desktop Minimal/Server Feel free to compile this yourself if you don't trust my images, it's encouraged. Changes are on the X96Q-TVBOX-LPDDR3 Branch Full W/Desktop ./compile.sh build BOARD=x96q-tvbox BRANCH=cur…

New Image 20210123 for H6, kernel 5.10.9 https://yadi.sk/d/0a41swJcEAZ0SQ?w=1 https://mega.nz/folder/j9QSDQSQ#6WpasOlbZYIInfw6yo4phQ/folder/K9BRjSaZ

see http://www.cnx-software.com/2017/04/28/24-sunvell-r69-android-4-4-tv-box-is-powered-by-allwinner-h2-processor/ This device boots from uSD with Ubuntu desktop – legacy kernel 5.30 for OrangePi One and RetrOrangePi-3.0.1.Orangepione.img. It didn't boot after initial setting and reboot command/automatic reboot (I don't know why yet, but it should boot and resize fs). It looks it somehow breaks filesystem on uSD card (and I don't have different uSD card to test it). Ethernet works out of box. Some guy in Facebook group RetrOrangePi confirmed RetrOrangePi for OrangePi One works.

Tanix TX6 is H6 based Android TV Box and it can boot from SD cards prepared with PhoenixCard. It should be possible to make it work with Armbian too, right? I tried a recent Lite2 image, it didn't work, but it also didn't boot main Android, which means SD boot takes priority. I don't think it's a normal behavior for other Android TV boxes, but maybe it is for those with H6 boards.

I have extract the device-tree of my tvbox, How to make armbian run on it using this h616.dts? Could anybody help me? thanks a lot!

Hi, Firstly sorry for the bad english(By Google Translator). I've been searching for a long time on how to use linux on my tv box, without success. I searched here on the forum in several topics, I didn't find anything related to the tx6s, the closest I came was the Orange-Pi Zero 2, which uses the same processor. In one of the topics, from 2020 if I'm not mistaken, a user warned that because it was the same processor or similar hardware, it wouldn't necessarily work. Even so I ventured out and tried in hopes of working, some versions of Armbian for OrangePi Z2 and other linux for ARM. With other ARM versions the tv box, boote…

Which version to install ARMBIAN on mxq pro 4K 5g with AllWinner H3 processor (N8050BA 96T4)?

Hi there, Forgive me but I am a novice in Armbian. What I would like to do is install armbian on the T95Max box I have purchased. I have attached a pic of the Box and it's specs. I have tried to "upgrade" using the SD method but couldn't make that recognise the SD card even with the original firmware "T95max-H618-A9.img" that I sourced using Google. I have also tried to get the T95 Max recognised via the USB method but the box wasn't even recognised using that method either. I used the "Universal_ADB_Driver_v6.0" drivers but that made no difference. If I could get the correct method sorted…

Good time of the day! There is such a board, a TV set-top box from Aliexpress.

Installed Linux kernel localhost 4.4.55 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Nov 11 15:35:09 CST 2021 armv7l The question is, when installing any Armbian image on mSD, I get the following result of booting from mSD: U-Boot SPL DRAM: 0MiB ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ### I understand that he does not see RAM, tell me how to set up RAM. Poke where the assembly process for LPDDR3 is described in detail. …

(sorry for bad english) i'm looking to boot in an armbian bookworm by sicxnull on my mxq pro 4k 5g, i checked the aida64, it showed the allwinner h313, i tried the toothpick method to the recovery menu (which have a boot option?) i'm novice to android 😕 by the way here are the images of the tv box pcb:

Hello, I have this TV box and it's difficult to find the firmware, only the logo appears on the screen and it freezes, I've already reset it and nothing, if anyone can help me, thank you very much. Here are photos of the board.

Hi everybody, I want to try armbian on my tvbox. I managed to build image using orangepi-linux 4.19 and u-boot-orangepi v2018.05 sun50iw9 i copied dts from my tvbox decompressed my stock firmware to get boot0_sdcard.fex, sys_config.fex replaced files with these from official armbian github. replaced orangepizero2.dts in linux build image without any errors used balenaEtcher to write to sdcard but I am not able to get it to boot on my tvbox any help?? thank you

I have an IK316-EMCP_v4.1 board, and I need to install Armbian on it. But there is no information on the internet about this card. If you have any information on how I can install Armbian, or any other Linux distro on this board, please let me know.

Does anyone know of a compatible image for the MXQ PRO 4K 5G TV Box with Allwinner H3, model Q44_V4.1_20210120? I've searched a lot and only found images compatible up to version V4.0. Since mine is V4.1, I haven't been able to get a successful boot from the SD card. If anyone has any tips, a working image, or experience with this specific model, I’d really appreciate the help!

Hi, I'm quite new to all this Linux Arm thing and I don't have any setup to create the build myself. I do all the setup from a Windows machine and that's mostly why I haven't got a proper setup to try my own build. I'm learning a ton about the A20 and linux, this is quite a change from my daily "coding on windows machine" job! I've been trying to run some of Igor images on that Chinese Android TV box : http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2014-Hot-Smart-TV-box-A20-Dual-Core-Google-Android-Allwinner-Cortex-A7-1GB-4GB-Flash/1714972998.html From what I can tell with the PCB out of the shell, it has the "basics" of most of the supported board, but the included wifi adapter is…

Hello, I tried maybe 100 roms and I couldn't find a rom for this. Can you help me? I am attaching the pictures.The rom is loaded to the device via type-c.

I would like to know if anyone has had the opportunity to try the new Tanix TX1. The dimensions are really small, only 58mm x 58mm x 25mm and it only has 1 USB port in addition to the HDMI port and the classic power jack. I know there are no Armbian images for H313 soc yet, too bad. This small TV box could be interesting for creating small servers connected exclusively via WiFi. Button 1 is the flash button, while button 2 is used to enter recovery mode. I tried images for H313 miniarch and others for H616 but I can't boot in any way. I'm using a USB stick obviously without using a USB hub but only the USB stick and for now only Android starts.

Newbie on Armbian. I have an Allwinner H313 (confirmed) box that I want to to use as a basic Samba server. CPU:Allwinner H313Quad Core ARM Cortex A53 GPU:Mali-G31 OPenGL ES3.2 Memory:2GB Flash:16GB OS:Android 10.0 The actual firmware is a secure image and, no matter what procedure I do, I can't load any other image but the secure one. Debugging shows that 'fastbootd' has the "secure" flag set. My intention is to create a basic secure arm64 Debian image but I am having a hard time in doing so. Any ideas (specific Wiki, procedures) on how to create the secure image or "reset" the "s…

I'm doing some testing setting up a pair of T95 max's (TV boxes with Inovato Quadra Debian and Allwinner H6 CPU's) as observatory controllers for astronomy. One step that I've not got past yet is getting a VNC server running on the build. Is anyone aware of a set of instructions for installing/building a VNC server which should work with this setup I use realvnc on Raspberry pi's and have tried installing it, tightvnc and building tiger vnc so far with issues which I've not got past yet.

Hi Can I install armbialn bookworm on x96qpro+ h728?

Hi all, i've been going this forum long enough to try and root a tv box that i buyed recently, but this one is HEAVILY locked up, like nothing i have seen before. My objective here is to access 'su' so i can have access to rooting/overclocking this thing for emulators, and after that adding a heatsink, active cooling, etc. I tried ADB over all USBs (4 in total) but nothing. then i tried to see if root was available through some leftover app or vulnerability, but nothing. Then i tried following the specs from this thread (pretty similar in design to my PCB) but my UART displays nothing. (I leave the images from my setup below), i tried switching the wires, i teste…

I have one of those projectors, and I came to think about perhaps it could be possible to put Armbian on it. Mostly just for fun. I really doubt it would be an improvement to have Linux on a projector, with most likely missing hardware decoding of codecs and other things, rather than having the original Android. However, I haven't really found any information about the H713 chip in any of the different forums with Linux on Arm. Have any of you any information or think that it would be a fun project? If so, please respond.

Hello I want to change the original logo of Android Tv box IK316Q-EMCP_v4.1 and use our company logo. Therefore, I need the firmware editor. Who can help me? Best regards

I’m really happy to share that I finally managed to port the SV6256P (SSV6X5X) SDIO Wi-Fi driver from the legacy Linux 4.4 kernel to modern kernels. This repository contains my working port for Linux kernel 6.12 and newer, with updated mac80211/cfg80211 integration so the driver can build and run on recent Armbian systems. The chipset is commonly used in many low-cost TV boxes and embedded devices, but the original driver only supported legacy kernels (4.4). Now it’s functional again on modern systems, at least on my tested hardware (Allwinner H616 / X96 Q via SDIO). Repository link: https://github.com/cdhigh/armbian_sv6256p I’m qu…

Hey everyone! I've got a cheap TV box I found on amazon for a steep discount and was thinking of using it as a server for home use. Unfortunately I should have looked up the exact model before I bought it, seems like the "Pro S" isn't well known in this forum at all. I have a decent amount of experience with programming, building off GitHub, setting up Armbian, but I've not tried using custom files to make my own Armbian build in years, as in flashing u-boot, kernel, dtb, all separately. I was hoping someone had a build I can use for this to boot at least, I can connect to it via serial and if I can get a bootable build that can actually connect via ethernet at leas…

Hello there ! Is there any Armbian support for this device ?

Hello, sorry for my poor English 😁. Recently, I bought an Android TV box TX3-Mini to install Armbian. Unfortunately, when I checked it, I found that my TX3-Mini is using the Allwinner H313 processor. I am not sure if I can install and use Armbian on my Android TV box. If it's possible, could you please let me know which images I can use for this device? Thank you very much.😁

Hi everyone, I'm recently obtained a TV box from a local store (seems like they sell Amazon returns or something, but they just have a bunch of random stuff). After installing AIDA64, I learned that it's running an Allwinner H616 CPU and has 4GB of RAM. It is able to boot warpme's MiniArch build for the Tanix TX6S, and I extracted the DTB from the Android build on the eMMC. My question is, where do I go from here? I'd like to build a custom Armbian image to support my device.

Hi I was wondering if you can help me, I am a newbie with Android TV Boxes. What I am trying to achieve is to flash an image on a T95 Android TV Box to use as a server to run Wire-pod Opensource software for an Anki Vector Robot. I was informed that the T95 box (I bought it on aliexpress) has a H6 processor either the models h616 or 6313. I was recommend to this forum that there might be someone who has the correct image file. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could send me the file please. Julie

I recently got a 2 GB RAM / 16 GB T95 Max TV box. I have been playing with the Armbian images from: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/12162-single-armbian-image-for-rk-aml-aw-aarch64-armv8 Are these the best / most up-to-date pre-built Armbian images for my box? I noticed that thread has been closed. I am aware this box is not officially supported by the project. The first issue I have encountered, and I presume this could also well be a general bug in Armbian although I have not confirmed by trying it on my supported BananaPi M1 yet, is that I am unable to install the mate desktop under either of the focal images due to a package conflic…

Hello armbian accomplices, I though I would share my little journey about getting this tablet rooted with magisk so that hopefully one day armbian could run on it. Steps: 1. on android become developer 2. enable oem bootloader unlocking in developer options 3. adb reboot bootloader 4. fastboot oem unlock 5. reboot, the system will be wiped clean 6. install Magisk apk from github releases 7. get Teclast T60 AI firmware from their site it contains Firmware.img 8. ./sunxi-fw extract -n "wty:init_boot.fex" -o stock_init_boot.img Firmware.img 9. transfer to device and patch with Magisk app 10. adb reboot bootloader …

Hi, I have bought a tvbox on amazon: https://photos.app.goo.gl/GQPWxxV745LmGS5C7 I wanted to install the https://www.inovato.com/ firmware to it, the problem is: the firmware / hw does not match to the the inovato FW/HW.

forgive me for asking such a seemingly stupid thing, but I can't find any info about it. i have a H6 Q+ tv box with Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_buster_current_5.9.0 on it, updated via apt-get update & upgrade but the kernel is still 5.9. now i've seen that the latest applicable image would be Armbian_21.05.0-trunk_Aw-h6-tv_buster_current_5.10.20, but i can't understand how to upgrade from sudo armbian-config - system - other i can switch only to "linux-image-current-arm-64=20.08 (5.7.16-arm-64)" or "linux-image-current-arm-64=20.07 (5.7.7-arm-64)". Is that correct? should I switch to one of these two? with cat /etc/armbian-release I get th…

I would like to control the TV via my box (T95 mini - powered by an H6) runing on Armbian. I installed both cec-utils (for cec-client) and v4l-utils (for cec-ctl) but neither seem to work. Did anyone manage to use the CEC protocol on an H6 box ?

Hi, I followed i12bretro's tutorial on installing armbian on the Tanix TX6 however I could not get it to boot at all. I have the TX6-P variant. Is it possible that, that is the reason why its not working? Are there any workarounds?

This is just a FYI, tips for anyone who has a Q+/Q Plus and wants to get armbian running on it. For my Q+/Q Plus box (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MR7YVRM?ref_=pe_1811570_143775280_E_ReturnReceived_Asin_Title), I had to use a SD Card (which is fine since I had a micro SD Card, and a micro SD Card to SD Card convertor laying around) but it did successfully install to the internal MMC. I have tried multiple images of armbian, started with older ones from different internet sources, and none of them would boot from an usb drive. I used the unofficial armbian bullseye image from https://www.inovato.net/Armbian/ and it is working wel…

Hi everyone. What I would like to do is install Armbian on the X98H TV box. I tried many ways to do that, but I was not successful. If you know how to install Armbian on it, plz suggest to me Thanks

I have been waiting for half a year for this problem to be resolved, but unfortunately in vain. That’s why I offer to pay for your work to whoever solves it for me (we agree). The brief: I have a T95 mini TV box, what is working well with any balbes150 image. However, none of the audio channels work. This is a problem because I want to use the stuff for internet radio. The task: Create a modified image that I can use with the tablet's 3.5 jack analog output. This is the picture of the board: T95 Mini 2/16G If you done success, would have had another task with the same board. I also want to be able to copy the system from the SD card to the NAND of t…

Apologies this isnt about Orange Pi Zero 2, but about a TV stick called Tronsmart Draco H3 which I have and am trying to repurpose into a light weight server with armbian. It obviously isnt well known, but I have tried a few H3 based builds, all of them boot fine, but I cant seem to get Wifi running. I tried Orange Pi PC and Orange Pi but they dont have Wifi at all I believe, so it didnt ask to setup wifi. I tried Orange Pi Zero 2+H3, but for some odd reason my keyboard didnt work on it, so I couldnt setup the users to be able to get further. I tried Nano Pi R1, but that didnt have HDMI, so my hdmi didnt work and I had no idea how to view the output …

Hello, I have an Android M98-Y6 HDMI stick that reportedly has an Allwiner H313 processor with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. When I opened the case, I identified the emcp memory module KMQNW000SM-B316. I don't have access to console mode. I can only access adb commands as root.The RAM type DDR3 seems LPDDR3 ( version ??) I've tried different Armbian images without success. Unfortunately, Secure Boot is enabled.

Hello, I have a allwinner H3 set op box with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of Flash it came with Android installed. I used the Armbian images for Orange Pi PC+ and its working perfectly from the SD Card. I read that to be able to install to the internal nand flash I need to use the 3.4.113 kernel. So I installed Armbian with 3.4.113 kernel and tried the command nand-sata-install. Unfortunately it cannot find any device to install. Am I missing something? Could anyone help?

Hi, I have a T95 mini TV box that had an Allwinner H6 cpu. I know that basically there's no further/current development for these boxes but I think my problem is solvable. Basically I have my armbian os installed and I have internet access, but I can't access the box via any remote access methods like SSH or VNC. I have checked the armbian-config and it says SSH is enabled. I even verified that it's running on port 22 and it's active, but no matter what I try, I can't access it with my laptop running Windows 11. I have set up a static IP address in my router for the box, based off the MAC address, and I even set a static IP in the armbian os itself to mirro…

I own the TV BOX TRANSPEED_H616 (Allwinner H616, Arm Mali-G31 MP2, Android 10, 4/64 GB). I would like to root but can't. I can't even connect the device to the PC. When I connect it with the USB-OTG cable in the device manager it shows "USB device unknown (device descriptor request failed)" and I cannot find the drivers. Can someone help me? Thank you

I just bought a qplus 4GB/64GB and installed the latest buster desktop image from @balbes150 (https://users.armbian.com/balbes150/aw-h6-tv/) with the mid-term intention of building some sort of headless sf2 midi synthesizer that can be connected to a usb midi keyboard with acceptable latency. I also had lying around an old minix x8-h plus (S812 based), but I was not able to make armbian work on it with an external usb soundcard for more than a few minutes (somehow it always crashed). The qplus works very nicely, although I had problems with lightdm on second boot and the greeter did not apper. I went for the nodm route for autologin and it seems to do the…

Hi, can anybody tell me if the Armbian release by developer Awawa for the Tanix TX6 tv-box Allwinner H6 will work on mt T95 mini tv box? I'm asking because it works on the T95 max also. I am currently running the Inovato Quadra image on my T95 mini but it has a terribly annoying flaw, in that it changes the MAC address after every reboot, which as you can imagine is infuriating when you're trying to set up SSH/SFTP/VNC. I have a workaround by manually setting the IP address on the box to a static IP then setting up port forwarding in my router to that address but i seem to lose access via the local network yet via my external IP address it works fine. I als…
