  • [RK3228] Batocera

    Quote from ilmich

    no.. there is a build of lakka for rk3228 that works (search on google). make a batocera build is possible, but I prefer libreelec also for retrogaming so my focus remain on libreelec for now.

    could you guide us how to game on libreelec? i always used librelec to media playback, and lakka/batocera for retrogaming.

    Hi ochentay4 this is not the right place to talk about lakka but know that I intend to continue that project too
    even if I prefer libreelec for retrograming as it's more simple than lakka (more click and play than the thousand settings of lakka) and the performances are identical (some addons on libreelec 11 are broken but most of them works)

    I'm trying a test build that I will publish in a new post, you need to have a little patience but as I have written in the past, the project is not dead :)

    agreed that this is not the place, sorry.

    im patatient, no worries.

    thanks for your work!

    ilmich Hi! I found out that you released some time ago Lakka for this box using similar tools like you did for LibreELEC. Could you release an updated version for RK322x? Lakka v4 or v5? As you did here? http://ilmich6502.it/lakka-4.x/

    Latest release LibreELEC-RK322X.arm-11.0-nightly-20240218-d7324fb-rk322x.img worked really fine on my box, maybe if its tranplanted with Lakka it will probably run great too!

    Also, any news regarding an updated LibreELEC for this boxes?

    EDIT: Just tested Lakka and it even runs PS1 games just fine! Its incredible, just had to use 720p res and correct dtb. Well, I hope you release a new Lakka! Wifi and BT do not work, but Im sure if you release an updated lakka with LibreELEC11 stuff, it will work as everything work with LibreELEC 11!

    keesijp60 Your box seems to have a type of internal memory called emcp (basically RAM and storage are in a single chip). I don't know if you can send the output of a uart serial, but I'll try to make some changes,
    Regarding your project, time, and several versions of libreleec ago, a user connected an rk322x box to an amplifier through the spdif digital output.

    Tanix TX2 RK3229 MPD DAC Hi Res Audio Bitperfect

    I would like to explain my project for connect my Android box Tanix TX2 based on chip RK3229 with an amplifier DAC Sabaj A4 trough an optic cable.

    Android box Tanix TX2 e ampli-DAC Sabaj A5 Sabaj10

    The goal is use the Tanix TX2 like a server MPD for playing music in lossless Hi Res Audio.

    Maybe you can take a look to understand the potential of your box (the instructions also apply to my builds).

    ochentay4 Finally, some time ago I found a box identical to yours. So being able to do some tests I also managed to get the wifi working (but only on libreelec 11)
    as regards the installation in nand (as in your case), from libreelec 11 it's no longer supported (as indicated in the first post that no one reads 8o). unfortunately, the source code is not available and with the new kernels, the nand binary no longer works.
    Maybe one day this may change. But considering that in my case a couple of nands chip start to corrupt!!! So I always recommend installing it on the SD card because it's more manageable (backups, replacements, etc. etc.)

    ilmich hi! i read it, i wanted to install libreelec 10 on it. dont worry. wifi works fantastic on libreelec 11. im surprised how good both builds work, it really did change a lot in a year! I have contacted (again) jock on armbian forum to make multitool work on this box so maybe I can get armbian on nand and libreelec 11 on sd. i couldnt be more grateful to you for your work.

    I just tested both LibreELEC-RK322x.arm-10.0-nightly-20230925-65bd849-rk322x.img and LibreELEC-RK322X.arm-11.0-nightly-20240218-d7324fb-rk322x.img and they both seem to work fine except that 10.0 doesnt support wifi chip.

    ilmich

    I wanted to try (again) to install to internal using multitool but it doesnt boot multitool at all (screen is blank, cant remember if I have to do something else) yet your images boot fine. Am I missing something? I thought that multitool boot was "fixed" on my device.

    Hi ochentay4,

    I've continued my fork of rkflashtool

    https://github.com/ilmich/rkflashtool/

    which is now able to update the bootloader. It's a highly experimental tool (I'm a volunteer) but it should help you flash libreelec to internal memory. It can also be compiled for windows, but at the moment I don't have a machine to do it.

    ok, im not a linux user but will try to test it, if you tell me how to use it :)

    Hi ochentay4,

    If you are referring to 11, unfortunately if you have a NAND device still not. I'm working (slowly) on it.

    Anyway I just got a board similar to this one

    Post

    RE: [unoffical] LE-9.2/9.80-Images for RK3229/RK3228

    Hey guys, I have an OTT MXQ 4K (not Pro) device with these specs (real and verified by me with my camera):

    • RK3229 CBBKM43012 1552 CPU
    • SanDisk P553072141 SDTNRGAMA-008G CP0813618 NAND
    • NANYA NT5CC256M16DP-DI RAM (DDR3)
    • Pulse H1102NL 1549-M ETH
    • Espressif ESP8089 05215 P27X03 WiFi
    • Board name T066-V1
    • Firmware MXQ-4K_ota_20160308
    -Do I have to get *any* file from Android to get remote working?

    -Is a new release on the horizon? Latest is from April 2020 and I saw many commits on github, including…

    finally, I can try to experiment directly with esp wifi chips :)

    I was referring to 10, its great that you have the same board now!

    Wanted to report that my box boots fine with "LibreELEC-RK322x.arm-10.0-nightly-20230306-088ac81-rk322x.img.gz". Thanks ilmich! Now this box stopped being useless!

    Hi ochentay4,

    but what did you install in nand!? Android or legacy libreelec!?

    Anyway for the multitool keep asking for help in the armbian forum and follow any indications from jock2 and fabiobassa . They are my mentors, but it's not always easy for someone on the other side of the forum to help if someone just says "it doesn't work".

    However I'm working on a script that automates the installation to internal memory, but it will take me a while.

    I have tried several Android roms on nand and frankly they all suck, used FactoryTool and Batch Tool just fine to install them to nand.

    I hope you get a script working, and on my side I will try to learn how to flash IMGs with rkdeveloptool using a live Ubuntu (im not good with linux but I can learn).

    Multitool does not work at all in this box so I posted on Armbian forum so someone could tell me how to diagnose, as I dont know what to do next. "fabiobassa" suggested a USB TTL converter and give him a serial log and will try to get one or do one, but it will take time. I even scanned my network to see if some random Android device showed and it didnt. I suspect that the issue you fixed for LibreELEC could be similar for multitool. What do you think? Sadly, multitool doesnt boot at all, with any methods that i tried.

    Hi ochentay4

    yes, installing on nand is supported.

    The best tool is the multitool from armbian.

    Another method is with usb cable and rkdevelop tool.

    yeah, problem is multitool doesnt work/boot/display anything so I cant use it (reported it here: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/12656-cs…#comment-160946) and rkdeveloptool is for linux only am i right? tried to flash the img with RockChip_FactoryTool_v1.64 and RockChip_Batch_Tool_v1.8 and img isnt recognized. Any tips?

  • [UNOFFICIAL][Le11-10][RK3228/RK3229][box]Libreelec builds

    oh yeah now it works. want to remind you that I tried several SD cards, an old 2GB, and 2 differents 32GB all did the same. But this build works! Testing it now!

    Currently running rk3229-box-v88mars-ovclk dtb. Is there any way to install LibreELEC to internal NAND?
