@ARx8if need help fixing the sd card. Login to IRC and ask the sunxi guys. https://oftc.catirclogs.org/linux-sunxi/2025-08-20

@Trung Nguyễn git clone https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build.git --branch v20250306 cd build ./compile.sh choose "Do not change kernel configuration" choose "Show CSC/WIP/EOS/TVB" choose "I understand and agree" choose "x98h" choose "edge" rest is up to you. Your image should be in output/images directory.

@buzz89 never heard of it. If you have root access you probably can.

@Piotr si guess this problem doesn’t exist with miniarch. I’ll have to update my build to 6.16 kernel with warpme patches. I’m busy right now so it might take awhile.

@ARx8 try miniarch. https://github.com/warpme/miniarch/releases/tag/f3b14fbae071 I think this box is having the same issue as yours?

@buzz89In oranges zero2 dts it has a 3.3v regulator defined as reg_dcdce. There’s only 5v defined in the vontar dts. You can add this to your dts reg_dcdce: dcdce { regulator-always-on; regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>; regulator-max-microvolt = <3300000>; regulator-name = "vcc-eth-mmc"; }; https://linux.googlesource.com/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf/+/refs/tags/v6.9-rc2/arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-h616-orangepi-zero2.dts you can borrow code off these boards as well https://linux-sunxi.org/index.php?search=RTL8211F&title=Special%3ASearch&go=Go if you can extract your android dts for more clues.

@ARx8X98h has a similar AIC8800D wifi chip. You could probably use the wifi section from x98h dts. I have never had problems with my sdcard. Maybe it’s a bad solder joint?

RTL8211F Is an external gigabit chip. Maybe this post will help.

@ARx8 try using the x98h image.

@Piotr s im using the same warpme patches so it’s odd that it doesn’t boot. To show more information on your console screen change your loglevel to 7 in armbianEnv.txt. The file is located at the root directory of your sdcard.

Wifi chip model?

@zink try these images https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/tag/20250306

@mdidis do non secure boot images show any output. The one posted is an android uboot output.

@dale there’s a new patch to fix boards without external 32k clock. I haven’t tested it yet. https://github.com/warpme/minimyth2/commit/728a14a73924e349fe88fb4def7e5f50a79aed5c

@mdidisDid you compile with the secure boot patch? Because it sounds like that’s your issue. If secure boot is not enabled you won’t get any output from your serial interface. post your dts. I’ll tell you the correct gpio for wifi and emmc.

@Ducdanh Nguyen hard to tell. I don’t see any markings for uart. It’s not going to be easy to debug your board.

@Randlin have you tried adding secure boot to @sicxnull build. If that doesn’t work you’ll need to play with the dram code. I don’t have time or a 1.5g board. https://github.com/sicXnull/armbian-build/tree/X96Q-TVBOX-LPDDR3

@RandlinTry removing 110,111,113 patches in my uboot. Then add https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/patch/u-boot/v2025-sunxi/0009-sunxi-h616-dram-support-1.5GB-RAM-size.patch

“This DRAM setup is currently not supported. resetting “ You need to extract your boot0 and use sunxi-fw to read your dram settings. sunxi-fw info -v boot0.bin Go back one page.
