spschneer Please test image from here: http://jernej.libreelec.tv/test/opi3-lts/ If it doesn't work, please follow above request with removing quiet

Sorry, I just realized that this fails early in boot, where there is no network drivers to load. For reference, you almost correctly edited extlinux.conf, just replace comma with space.

I suppose you don't have serial adapter? That would certainly make it easier to access system even in such state.

However, there is one possibility. Remove quiet from APPEND line in extlinux.conf. It should print much more info, hopefully also error messages. In the mean time, I'll take a look at schematic.

Can you try to boot it several times? I saw such message only when I was developing support for it, but not with the latest images. Also, dmesg output would be nice. You can add ssh at the end of extlinux.conf argument list, which will enable ssh.

chewitt this is most likely issue with power settings on PMIC.

There is no OrangePi 3 LTS support in LE10. LE11 beta2 should be already pretty stable.

Execute install2emmc command from ssh. Be warned, all content on eMMC will be gone, without any backup.

frakkin64 you're right, thanks for that info.

deleonkikko please test image or update from here: http://jernej.libreelec.tv/test/opi3-lts/ your archer wifi should work.

offbeat can you provide first 50 MiB (zipped) of your eMMC, assuming Android is still there ? I'm trying to find out which regulator is causing issues and set it properly in DT, so this ATF hack won't be needed anymore.

RTL8812BU

ah, yes, RTL8822BU would work, but not RTL8812BU...

deleonkikko bad luck, try another wifi dongle.

This is not good enough. Driver should work and we need to find the issue. Plug in your wifi dongle, enable ssh in settings, connect to the board via ssh and execute following commands:

lsusb
dmesg

Once you done that, copy and paste that output to pastebin.com and create a link which you paste it here.

Please provide output of lsusb so I can take a look which driver is needed.

No, we only support wifi chips which are supported by mainline kernel.

It appears to have everything (including wifi)

wifi is not and most likely won't be supported by LE.

Yes, it's already in master and it will be in LE11 beta2.

Please try tomorrow nightly image. I can't do more than that.

I prepared new test image here: http://jernej.libreelec.tv/test/opi3-lts/

Please test it and report if network works more reliable. I'll prepare PR in the meantime.

How do you get the drivers?

Either I write them myself or sunxi community writes them. Either way, somebody does it (in most cases) in spare time for free...

There is no upstream display driver nor HDMI audio driver. There is some work done in that regard, but current state is not yet useful for LE needs.

As release notes state, support for OrangePi 3 LTS is experimental and it probably won't be stable for official LE11 release. There will be no wifi support in either case.
