while you can do a supervised install of Home Assistant on this box, I recommend getting a 2GB RAM variants specially if your going to run esphome to compile the firmware, 1GB RAM will literally crash the box during firmware compilation, all of that because of the very limited 1GB RAM. El...
rkdeveloptool db command may come in handy, you can see how to use it on the first page in the "Restore the firmware" section. But I would say it is far easier to just boot into linux. Just plug the sdcard into and boot with the eMMC shorted. Remember to unshort as soon as ...
RECOMMENDED: make a backup of the existing firmware with "Backup flash" menu option; Choose "Install Jump Start for Armbian" menu option: the Jump Start uses the internal NAND to boot from external SD Card or external USB Stick; Follow the general instructions to boot from SD Card below...
If you meant a working image of the original firmware, note that only the Multitool can boot only from sdcard when a stock Android is installed. some0ne Members Posted January 28, 2024 (edited) @jock Hi, yes - that is what i meant. Thank you for the hint. I was able to inst...
I am having some problem following the tutorial for this board (identified as R69): I thought of using the multitool to burn an image to the tv box, but after picking an image and inserting the sd card, it did not respond, since it booted from the original firmware and ignored multi...

RK3xxx_firmware_tools_5.23.1_by_SergioPoverony.zip (google for it ) but I guess you have nothing of different from other boards with ddr3 and emmc Let's wait @jock for further infos on how to approach at this rare study case but I can say to you for sure that it will boot You...
It looks like the board is a bit different than usual, so some things are not perfectly working and it is also overheating a bit: we thing we could arrange things a bit better for this board, but we need the original firmware or at least the original device tree. If anyone has this ...
If you could share the serial log, the original firmware (or the device tree binary/source), and some photos of board and chips I can try to guess what is going on. Expand I used that rom to restore with MASK Rom mode: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mxqba_lReweZw9IQC...
The Armbian image as-is is not supposed to boot from sdcard if there is the android firmware, but the multitool should boot from sdcard no matter what firmware is there. Well you can erase your flash if you don't care about the original android firmware; then the board will boot fro...
