As I understand it, the error is:

 

2025-03-17T16:04:41.808197+03:00 odroidhc4 kernel: usb usb1-port2: connect-debounce failed

 

After rolling back to 6.6.63 kernel - USB works fine.

What other information can I provide to help identify the problem?

I have the same experience.

I'm running this and it sees a USB stick fine :

 Armbian Community
 v25.5 rolling for RK3318 Box running Armbian Linux 6.14.0-rc4-edge-rockchip64
 

Edited March 19, 20251 yr by mkultra

rockchip rk3318 and amlogic s905x3 looks like different...

Same problem:

That is a wise thing to do and might be a good default for armbian to adopt.

has any progress been made toward fixing this

i can say that linux-image-6.12.43+deb12-arm64 works
