Listen. With all due respect, you totally misunderstand me. I never expected that you would work on this, as you are already outside of my budget and are no doubt super busy.
 
That is why I posted in the P2P room. To see if I could find someone (a peer) with more experience than me with U-Boot, who was willing to do it for $500.
 
So when I said I would donate, it was not to try to persuade you to help. I said it simply because I believe in your project and I want to support it. So if I ever have a success, it is only fair that I pass some of my profits to Armbian.
 
Also, I never asked to get a fully fledged working system (as Balbes asserted). I only asked for an updated version of my DTB file. It's right there in the title of the thread. The drivers and other stuff I can figure out by myself.
 
Thanks for the pointer to the Debian experts. I didn't know that was an option. Will check it out.
 
Regards,
Roy

If I ever have any success with my project, I will make sure to give a generous donation to Armbian. You have my word.

Dear all,
 
Ok ok, I realize my previous post with $100 for this task is a bit low. Please do keep in mind, that this is only my personal hobby project.
 
With that in mind, I hereby offer $500 to anyone, who can update the DTB file to work with the current version of Armbian.
 
BTW, I have a freelancer.com account with a 5.0 rating as employer (as well as freelancer): https://www.freelancer.com/u/LeHawkDeLaNight - I can start a new project for you there, so there is no doubts about getting payed the $500.
 
Thanks again,
Roy
 
Original post:
 
Dear all,
 
I have an Android TV-Box which is not a common type (but brand new). No existing DTB file that I tried works properly with Armbian (Ex. WiFi & Bluetooth missing).
 
I have managed to extract the original DTB file from the built in Android (Pie, I believe), but as I read somewhere else, these DTB files are for older Linux kernels, and Armbian refuses to boot with it.
 
My question: would anybody here like to attempt to update the DTB file, so that it adheres to the current Linux kernels standards for DTB files? I will offer $100 to anyone who can make it work.
 
Technical specs of TV-Box:
 
Amlogic S905X3 CPU
4GB RAM
64GB eMMC
2 X USB 2.0 & 1 X USB 3.0
Micro SD Card slot
HDMI 2.1
AV out
SPDIF/Optical
WiFi 2.4G/5G
100M Ethernet
Bluetooth 4.1
 
P.S. Please download the DTB/DTS files from here:

Roy
