Is there a difference in the DTB files?
Yes, there is a difference in the DTB, kernel source, kernel configuration and settings, etc..

Tried both aarch64-10 20210301-amlgx and arm-10 20210301-amlgx but still no luck, no working wifi
The module is available and loaded normally. I don't have your model, I don't know why it doesn't work for you. Which DTB do you use ?

s8xx
For s8xx, there is only the very initial minimum support, do not expect full operation of all functions.
So can you add rtl8188fu/rtl8189fs wifi module again like previous release (it was working with older release), thanx in advance.
I haven't checked, but maybe in the latest version of LE10 20210301 this is restored.
New ver 20210215. Kernel 5.10.16
Yes, I read that in the forum of firefly, but You didn't put the link to the LE images, only to the Armbian image. So can you provide the link to the LE images?
The name of the images contains rk3328-roc-pc
it's a Station M1. I test it, it works OK, I had to use the dtb from the firefly ROC-RK3328-PC as the Station M1 is in fact a ROC-RK3328-PC with a shell.
For M1, I release special images LE (arm and aarch64), there is no need to change anything, the system works immediately after writing to the SD card. Also for M1 there is its own version of Armbian with the legacy core + media script, which work perfectly with any video up to 4K (in desktop mode) and there is its own version of KODI 18 and all this works with almost all hardware (LAN WiFi HDMI sound, analog sound and remote control) without additional settings.
Nevermind, I will take a rk3328 image, burn it to SD and then burn the M1 u-boot to the sd-card. I will see what it does.
What is your device model?
I just want to report that LibreELEC-ARMv7.arm-9.80-devel-20210117165740-d174eba-rk3188.img.gz is partially working on minix neo x7. There are problems with network connections (no wifi and no ethernet interface) and other little things to adjust ( eg. reboot is not working properly), but audio and video are working fine (I couldn't test everything properly because of the size of my sd card, but I plan to connect an hard disk this weekend and make more tests). Let me know if I can be of any help in this project.
Have you checked all the available dtb in the image ?
The main developer for rk3188 is knaerzche , perhaps he can tell you what information he needs to add LAN support on your model. By the way, today I loaded a new version (20210119) for rk3188 and rk3288. I have a wired network running on Ugoos UT2 with a UT2 file.
I read your explanation about the Station M1 on the firefly forum. There you speak about linux mainline builds for the M1. So if I understand correctly, I just have to use one of your rk3228 testbuilds and burn the u-boot from the firefly forum to the sd-card?
RK3188 RK3288 RK3328 are different chips. 3188\3288 is a 32 bit chip (ARMHF), 3328 is a 64 bit chip (AARCH64). They have different u-boot and different kernel configuration (different GPUs). Station M1 is rk3328 (64-bit). Images for M1 are not compatible with rk3188\3288.
Version 20210118 with kernel 5.10.8. Fixed u-boot for Odroid C2 (also added support for starting from USB for C2).
Because i want to boot from network by my own u-boot startup scripts. On my five s905x systems with old LE (old 3.x aml kernel) it works fine.
For this option, you still have to change the u-boot, it is easier to accurately use the instructions and perform an easy installation in eMMC (just a few mouse clicks\remote control).
ver 20210117 for rk3288 and 3188
is currently running the latest CE nightly image from emmc
Such configurations are not supported.
1. Power up box, start pressing much <Enter>s
Why are you breaking the launch ?
problem is a booting speed - 5 mins for me in total from sd, 10+ from network.
What firmware is in eMMC ?
Show the output of " printenv"
Version 20210113. Fixes video playback in HW mode for rk3328.
is there bootloader for libreelec to boot from sd ?
LE and Armbian images are available for the rk3188. On the site with LE images, see directories with the rk3188 extension. I am testing rk3188 on UT2, playback works with HW and is supported by fulhd (1080p).
@JFL from Beelink's forum found a solution to kernel panic of mainline version.
Show the link to the original source, I want to look at the "author".
The new version 20210107-rk3188 (kernel 5.10.5).
Added DTB for Ugoos UT2 with LAN support. I checked the video playback, 1080p works with HW. Given that this all works with the latest main core 5.10.5, I think a very good result for such an old rk3188 chipset.
Please note that to run external systems on rk3188, you need to update the firmware to the version that supports running external systems from the SD card. Details and links are available on the Freactab forum in the corresponding section about Linux for rk3188. Specifically for Ugoos UT2, without updating the firmware, no systems are launched from an external SD card carrier.
