On ubuntu 16, my m3 worked stably at 2 GHz. At 2.2 GHz it was very hot and then I did not accelerate it. Also, under ubuntu 16, monodevelop is installed and works. And the microcomputer freezes stopped after creating a power supply based on a laptop power supply and a set of dc-dc.
Board support proceeds this way: https://github.com/armbian/build#support while sadly those images has no support - hw has to qualify to get love from scarce resources.
We provide sources for this image and build tools. Look inside and fix what bothers you.
Armbian images are the same on all hardware and are certainly compatible with Ubuntu / Debian on user software level. If its broken upstream - on particular version - it will be broken here. Here again you need to follow general instructions for installing this and that on the internet:
After fixing the frequencies, it is not known how the script began to swear: compile.sh: 16: compile.sh: Bad substitution compile.sh: 16: compile.sh: Syntax error: redirection unexpected
the new frequency is not set in any way
The H6 CPU frequency has ben soft-capped at 1,48 GHz to avoid thermal throttling too fast. This limit can be lifted by editing
/etc/default/cpufrequtils
and setMAX_SPEED
to1810000
.
it does not work for me
when transferring OS to hdd m3 stops loading
And how did you do that?
used a armbian-config
Hi, today I installed the latest Armbian Bionic (from Feb 17 2020) and finally, after trying a few images, my M3 started properly. So thank you very much for your efforts!
One issue I could not solve yet is Wifi. via #nmcli device status I found: (1) Ethernet (2) dummy (3) lo - but no WiFi. Also I used the Network manager via #sudo armbian-config but could not find a wireless connection possibility either. Is there a sollution yet?
PS: Sorry for breaking any of the forum rules since I’m new to SBC and all that stuff… Any help’s appreciated
Well, I found this page before and I will use it for sure. Anyway I couldn’t find something about the WiFi problems…
Update: Meanwhile I found some other forum posts about WiFi (exaples below). It seems like the M3 won’t let me use WiFi reliably. Or has someone had positive experiences?
Other (older) posts relating WiFi: (1) “Wifi Promlem and Using External Wifi” (2) “How to use BPI-M3 wifi extebd antenna slot” (3) “No Wifi or Bluetooth..?”

No way. Armbian is a crooked product that works ONLY in very narrow given frames. The answers to my questions were “here you have the source and go f*k”, as is customary among penguins.
The problem why eMMC does not work with Armbian was answered - even its not an obligation - long time ago. Search. Once again: since sources are open, anyone can invest their own time and resolve the problem.
Armbian R&D costs several thousands EUR per day without dealing with this board (this board is not supported, nobody is working on it) and with you. How much of that time do you cover? And nobody forces you to use Armbian. Use whatever you like.
Hey Igor… totally agree, bananapi don’t deserve the effort, (in fact, I will never buy bananapi again), but well, I appreciate if you can give me some clue to try to solve this problem, I really don’t know how to start. At least the right reference of why don’t work on eMMC (I read a lot of post and forums and the information confused me)
Regards
Information to solve the problem is the most expensive part. I would be able to tell you if I throw a week on this, which is not possible. Not this year.
All I know now is that there are different eMMC chips and support needs to be added to the u-boot. But I don’t know if this represent a lot of work nor if its possible or its just a flag.
I would say you need to check for support quality first. Some of their boards works nice (A20, H3 and H5 based) due to good upstream support. You can also try to use what they provide - kernel 3.4.y based images … they should work better, but kernel is very old, EOL, lack many new kernel functions, there is no community involvement … but you can run the hw to some degree. The same goes from the Armbian side. Kernel is modern which is good, some functions works, some don’t and some never will.
Using the image available in Armbian’s download page, I had to manually dd the uBoot image (/usr/lib/linux-u-boot-current-bananapim3_20.05.4_armhf/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
) to /dev/mmcblk1boot0
, as nand-sata-install wouldn’t do it for some reason. I first did echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk1boot0/force_ro
followed the steps as write_uboot_platform
function from /usr/lib/u-boot/platform_install.sh
would do, and it then booted correctly with no SD card.
Hey everyone…
I stopped using Ubuntu 16 and started using the armbian buster, the problem is that I can’t use the IR receiver. It is recognized but the getevent command has no output when I use the IR control.
I tested with the initial image ( 5.4.31-sunxi) and after the upgrade (Linux 5.8.6-sunxi) and does not generate events when it receives an IR signal.
What do I need to do to work? Thank you.
Regards

Moin moin,
Nach langem Kampf mal ein OS was fast
läuft wie Ubuntu 16.04
Bis auf das Leid Das mein Akku
mit XFC Power nicht erkannt wird. Mit Power Mangager
Wird er erkannt, sogar das AC input steckt,
Nur wird er nicht geladen.
Hab das Kernel 5.8.6
Warum?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
hey I’ve downloaded 4 images and cant get them to ssd used etcher and win32imager would love to try it
