s905x2 box, wired doesn't work, wireless works sporadically then totally drops off the network...
On s905x2 there are two wired network options, for proper operation you need to use the correct DTB.

So actually in order to launch LE from the Amlogic boxes, I need to update the internal Uboot first?
Yes. Even if you have the LE starting, it does not guarantee proper operation.

I normally run CE but while ago I made some tests regarding the ethernet support in mainline LE release and I am planning to continue on this as soon as I have some spare time. At that time if coming from CE on SD, it was enough to reboot in android and redo one of the "boot from SD" methods (Reboot update, toothpick or whatever) to boot LE from the SD card (and again the same to eventually reboot in CE).
Now you write that it is required to restore the standard firmware. Are you talking about CE installed to internal, or it really affect any device that are currently booting CE from SD (and or USB)?
Coreelec are using an outdated and not compatible with other new systems technology run from external media. No matter what you have in eMMC. If you are running coreelec from external media, then your eMMC has an old version of multi-boot that is not compatible with the new systems. No new system can run properly on your device anymore.

The new version 20190821
just wanted to test new Image on nanopi-k2. As for older Images (since June) Nanopi won't boot. Unfortunately my Computer crashed, so I am not able to do an update from May Image (not longer on my Computer or yandex). Is it possible to upload an May Image (before 16.05) on yandex, so that I can make further Tests with update Images? Thanks for your kindness.
Try the new version, there should be a fixed startup
If we will have a version with DTV, when will it be available?
I have no equipment with DTV, I am not engaged in development of this direction. As far as I know afl1 has sent a patch to the main kernel, I don't know when its patch will be in the main kernel.
Can you elaborate more on this? Some times ago it was just enough to restart in Android and do again the "reboot update" (or other methods)
I don't understand your question. Write in detail what you want to know.
For those who want to run a regular Android without disabling external media with LE. I put together a test script to run s905_autoscript, which , if there is an empty boot_android file on the external media in the FAT section , will run both systems (LE and Android) in turn on reboot. Please note that this version of the launch is only the primary layout and may not work correctly. For use. Download the script and replace it with the existing file in the image. To create to patition FAT (/boot) the empty file boot_android. The first time you run the new script, Android will be launched. When rebooting, one of the systems will be started in turn.

For all.
1. Everyone chooses for himself what systems to use it. No one is forcing you to use LE.
2. The launch system in Coreelec is not compatible with LibreELECE and Armbian. If you run coreelec on your TV box, you will no longer be able to run LE and Armbian normally until the full recovery of the standard firmware via the USB Burn Tool and the new activation of the universal multi-boot, which is used in all new systems.

The new version of the LE images 20190820.
Please note, now on the site I upload only one TAR file to update for the entire group of devices. -
the wireless doesn't work with this........and the wired only works if you disable the wireless
also the reboot doesn't work.....I see the linux output on the screen, gets to 'Reached target Reboot.' but it doesn't reboot....
This DTB I am only interested in working eMMC (installing to eMMC).
-
When installed to emmc goes to bootloop after the first reboot.
Check this option to work with eMMC.

In Kodi of the Android, the system informations display 4 Gb
LE correctly shows the real memory size. In Android firmware manufacturers often specifically deceive users, overestimate the real memory size.
I did a git pull today on your amlogic-master branch. Compiling (ARCH=arm) leads to the same result as above.
Show the UART log from the launch of my latest build 20190724. Self-Assembly from GIT can be different.
What programs are for this model?

The first issue is the amount of RAM: only 3Gb are available.
How did you determine the size of RAM ?
Kodi crashed when I try to play a x265 video
As far as I remember, x265 is not supported yet.
-
Display More
By changing the line in a /extlinux file.
Tried all of them
Situation is similar :
WiFi, cec -OK
Ethernet, elementum launch - nope
During reboot there's an error something like "cannot configure ethernet mac"
Need to edit (env.ini). You can ignore the Mac address error.
-
the errors are the same not depending on dtb used. Seems like changing the dtb makes no difference
How do you configure the DTB ?
-
It boots, but without ethernet and a bunch of errors.
You have set up the DTB ?
with 1 GB
Most likely reboot due to insufficient RAM.
-
tested on generic S905X device
You need to specify the exact model and dtb with which you are testing.
(Monitoring U-Boot via minicom: U-Boot bin loaded and halt)., but update from a working Card (from 26.05) will boot (branch amlogic-master).
Can you show UART log ?
(build aarch64 amlogic-master)
I temporarily stopped building aarch64. What exact version of the image was used ?
I have Mecool BB2 Pro S912 3G/16GB, which dtb do i have to choose?
try all gxm*

1. Download following file multi-boot fix.zip:-
2. Extract the 2 files from this zip file - "aml_autoscript" and "aml_autoscript.zip"
3. Format SD card (I used rufus) to FAT32.
4. Copy "aml_autoscript" and "aml_autoscript.zip" to this SD card.
Everything you need is part of the image of LE. You don't need to download or record anything else. The rest of the instructions are correct.
hmmm when you state older versions of LibreELEC (how old?) and ref ukmark62 earlier post what is your recommendedmethod to check current status and correct?
If you encounter any errors in starting the system from external media - the first step is to update the multi-boot.
Understood, except this is what has been fully available in past via balbes150 builds, reboot into Android from LibreELEC and reboot into LibreELEC from Android without any need to regularily play around removing and re-inserting SD. (Well at least for kvim devices)
Android launch mode from LE (without disabling external media Sd and USB) is possible. But I do not have enough time to test this mode.
-
For all.
If you have run coreelec or an older version of LE. To launch new versions should be upgraded as a universal multi-boot to a new version (script aml_autoscript latest images). Older multi-boot versions have errors that are not compatible with newer versions.
-
Witch branch are you using to build?
Yes, I'm using this branch.
-
Version 20190716.
Expanded list of USB WiFi and USB sound.
Maybe the dtb is the cause??
I checked the operation on two s905x, the system starts up and works.
