June 30Jun 30 Hi everyone, I am trying to install Armbian on my X96 Max Plus TV box, but I'm having trouble getting the Wi-Fi and peripheral power management to work correctly. I disassembled the box to gather the exact hardware specs from the PCB. Could you please advise which specific DTB file I should use for this hardware revision? Here are my exact hardware specs and chip markings: SoC: Amlogic S905X3 RAM: 4GB LPDDR3/DDR3L (Micron, FBGA code: D9PQL) Storage: 32GB eMMC 5.1 (SanDisk SDINADF4-32G) Ethernet (LAN): 1000M / Gigabit (Realtek RTL8211F transceiver) Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module: Broadcom/Ampak under a metal shield marked AM7256 (Android logs show it as a Broadcom chip using bcmdl firmware utility). Power Management / Audio: Uses VT2921 logic, Audio DAC is GS7903F. Front Panel LED Display: Driven by AIP1628 / TM1628 (display sticker: 56BT120). PCB Marking / Revision: G24PO2S (or Q5X3_G24_P02_S variant, post-2021/2022 board). Should I go with meson-sm1-x96-max-plus-q1.dtb, meson-sm1-x96-max-plus.dtb, or is there a better option for this specific "AM7256" hybrid power-routing board to wake up the Broadcom Wi-Fi? Thanks in advance for your help!
