[8.2.3.1] LibreELEC 8.2 for S905/S905X

    Quote from chewitt

    The thing that conclusively proves the SoC type is under the heatsink, but the sticker that's visible indicates S905W.

    the heatsink is glued ... impossible to remove.

    But 'Usb burning tool' manage to connect.

    This is definetly an S905(x/w) device.

    I am trying to extract the DTB file, but I get some issues ...

    with ADB, I copied boot.img with :

    dd if=/dev/block/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img

    but the split with a 0 byte for ‘second’ (which should contain the dtb if I am right) :

    ./split_bootimg.pl /storage_main/tmp/boot.img

    Page size: 2048 (0x00000800)

    Kernel size: 7110087 (0x006c7dc7)

    Ramdisk size: 1315813 (0x001413e5)

    Second size: 0 (0x00000000)

    Board name:

    Command line: buildvariant=userdebug

    Writing boot.img-kernel … complete.

    Writing boot.img-ramdisk.gz … complete.


    so ... I am stuck …

    EDIT 2 :

    here is the pastebin of dmesg

    [ 0.000000@0] Initializing cgroup subsys cpu [ 0.000000@0] Initializing c - Pastebin.com

    EDIT 3:

    damned ! I finally managed to extract the dts file !

    I found the infos here :

    [S905] Device trees
    [S905] Device trees

    it's a multi DTB.

    here is the start :

    Code
    model = "Amlogic";
compatible = "amlogic, Gxbb";
amlogic-dt-id = "gxl_p212_1g";
interrupt-parent = <0x1>;

    p212 ... lol.


    EDIT 4:


    still not booting with the extracted DTB !!!


    here is everything I extracted :

    Can I ask you why you're extracting it? The dtb file from Android doesn't work on Libreelec.

    Did you use a s905x device tree? I have a s905w Soc as well, and using this dtb for the s905x, everything works good.

    I clearly missed that point !

    I'll try with your dtb, but I think there is something else than DTB. I can't understand why any of the ~20 dtb files I tried (from various sources can't work).

    Hello,

    I'm running 8.2.3.1 on K1 Plus. I have installed new USB DVB-T2 tuner with Si2168 chip on it. Unfortunately driver si2168.c had a bug which is included in the 4months old crazycat driver pack but it is reported that it is fixed now.

    Can I download somewhere newer driver pack for K1 Plus (gxbb_p200_k1_plus) or do I have to build it on my own? Or would somebody here be so kind and build it for me please?

    Thank you, Martin

    Why ?

    There is a fork from kszaq`s builds - pre alpha and not stable

    This version runs stable and it´s perfect for daily use

    This version (8.2.3.1) is perfect unless you don't need to patch like me some bug in media package:-( And here would some help and new maintenance releases be benefitial.

    Isn’t your tv just set in 3D mode and splitting the image vertically?
