@i12bretro I have a Nexbox A95X (S905) and the installation went very well. But unfortunately WiFi doesn't work. Could you tell me what your entries in the /etc/config/wireless file look like? That would be great!
No emmc can be found to install the openwrt system. ( Mxq pro 4k ( 1/8 rtl 871x, p201 dtb did not run on others. ) which dtb to choose?
My device is x96 Air. I installed openwrt also. But it does not showing radio 0 and radio 1 together in Wireless menu
Hello, great video, it was the first that popped up for me. I have X96Max-2G/s905x2. Can I just use USB Burning Tool to flash the img or no?
I don't believe so
@@i12bretro I just got it installed, thanks for the visual from this video, still helping! Looking forward to getting into openwrt.
Awesome! Enjoy!
Hello! Good video instruction.
I have a TV box on the s905x2 processor. There are four files for this processor on the git hub within one assembly. Which one to choose and what is the difference?
They are builds for different TV boxes (github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-openwrt#openwrt-firmware-instructions). You'll have to try them to see which one works best for your specific hardware. It runs from the SD card, so there's no harm in trying each one.
@@i12bretro Thanks for the quick answer. I'll ask a stupid question. What packages can be installed? I have a regular OpenWrt router, it has WireGuard installed, captive portal and more. So, what can be installed on it, which the router cannot handle? And another question, how to install packages? Like on the OpenWrt router from the repository, via opkg install?
I'd assume any package that has been built for the ARM architecture can be installed. Yes, packages can be installed with opkg install or via the Luci web UI
Hello bro, after burn this firmware. I've trouble to start connection because there are no internet connection. How to install tunnel like openclash?
What is the best option for the T95 max Plus (s905x3)?
I have s912 tv. Box running android os6, i tried flash openwrt and armbian s912 image on sdcard, but won't boot up
I tried change dtb (all meson-gxm-.... dtb) one by one but got no succes
I try insert my armbian desktop s905x sdcard, its boot up but didn't running, only show the desktop, the mouse didnt work at all
The mark of chipset is S912-B
Any idea to solve?
I have device S905X2 , I have tried all versions but can't boot by USB (my hardware doesn't have SD)
If the device is locked to the bootloader, it cannot be used?
Hope you help
With the armbian install from this Github, can i do the same config with Openwrt install?
I read the instructions of armbian install and i don't understand. They mention the "overload" directory and i don't find it
Hi, what can we use with this router
Hey bro. I've H96MAX x3 with soc s905x3 is it possible to install? On your video it's seems like just burn the fw on sdcard. So it's mean can be dual boot? Android tv and open wrt?
Yeah, there are builds for s905x3. And yes, by default it runs from the sd card, so you can power down, remove the sd card and power back on to return to Android
@@i12bretro thanks for your answer. Next, which one dtb correctly command to paste in Env editor
I don't know specifically, I don't own any s905x3 devices, but seems like they should have a naming convention like sm1_s905x3.....
@@i12bretro noted bro. Thanks for the advise
There any openwrt For s905x4?
whether this method can be used on Mi box?
I don't have a Mi Box to test on, but it runs from the SD card, so it doesn't hurt to give it a try. Let me know if you give it a go
Masih bingung untum tx3, tidak ada tutorial indonesia???
I have s905x2 it's booting but i'm unable to connect web interface. What should i do?
Make sure you set the IP address to a valid IP in your subnet, then make sure the device can reach the internet and the web interface is installed
opkg update
opkg install luci
@@i12bretro thank you mate. I've solved the issue. I've tried different image and it detected my ethernet finally
Glad to hear it
Can u connect this openwrt box to the internet? I finished installation but just can connect the box to pc to config the openwrt, when I connect this box to router, router does not recognise the box and the box has no internet as well. Could u pls provide further instruction about that (i'm new to openwrt, and also searching across the internet but found nothing useful). Thank you.
Yes, you will likely need to set the network.lan.gateway value to your internet gateway. Here's some more info
openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/openwrt_as_clientdevice#command-line_instructions
@@i12bretro Wow, you just save me alot of time, thank you so much. And another question, I want to use this only port to behave as Lan and Wan simultinously, if I can do that, then this box can connect to a switch, making this box as main router (or subrouter). So we can use this box as role of Rasperry pi 4 (run openwrt). So if you know how to do that, pls help, I appreciate much :)
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar enough with it to know how to do that. Good luck. It sounds like you'll get good use out of it
Thank, i'll find the way, will update to u later.
Can i install on internal flash ?
The github page says you can do it from the web UI: Login in to openwrt → system menu → Amlogic Service → Install OpenWrt
I haven't tried it so I can't say how well it works or if it will cause you any trouble.
WiFi on ?
It will depend on the exact hardware in your TV box. Wifi chips in these TV boxes varies a ton
that you improve an optendia in a S912 amlogic by adding this
can smart box x92 be openwrt?
If it's running one of the SoCs listed, it should be. Can't hurt to try, it just runs off the SD card
@@i12bretro try but can't
@@i12bretro I've changed the firmware still can't
I've tested it on s912, s905w and s905x. All have at least booted OpenWRT
@@i12bretro on x92 s912 is it necessary to turn on av+power?
hello friend do you have openwrt for this tv box model
Main Features
● Android 8.1 operation system
● RK 3328 CPU, quad core, Cortex A53, 1.5GHz
● Mali 450 GPU, penta-core, 75MHz
● 4GB DDR3 RAM + 32GB eMMC ROM
● 2.4GHz +5GHz dual band WiFi
● Support H.265 decoding
● Support HDR 4K image
Hello, no I don't. You can search online to see if anyone has built OpenWRT for the RK3328.
LAN Speed 100MB or 1000MB?
That will depend on how well the hardware in your specific TV box is supported. I have some that get 1Gbps and others only 100 Mbps
@@i12bretromy device, x96max+ 4GB Ram / 64GB Rom. so have 1Gbps.
is it detected automatically?
last week I downloaded the firmware from ophub for my device. but only detected 100mb LAN.
I think it'll depend on the .dtb file you use and if it can detect the 1Gbps hardware. This runs from SD card, so there's no harm in trying it to see what speed you get
@@i12bretro ok. i'll try. thank you
@@i12bretro hey could you do tutorial edit uEnv via phone? I have no pc 😔
I do found how to flash/burn firmware openwrt for stb via android . .
For s905w?
Yes, there are s905w builds on the GitHub page
@@i12bretro I tried but it did not finish installing openwrt, the .dtb file of my tv box is not in the dtb folder, in my case I have a x96 mini helps
I'm not sure. I didn't test on s905w. You can try the s905x build to see if it will boot ok your device
@@i12bretro for the process to be successful the tv box must have root privileges?
I don't believe so. Everything runs off the SD card.
what about "s905"? Not possible?
There's no download specific for the s905. I came across this GitHub repo for building OpenWRT for S905. I don't have a device to test it on
github.com/joycechu/openwrt_meson
T95K PRO HOW?
Follow the tutorial, just downloading an image for s912. It'll take some trial and error with the 4 s912 images available to see which works best on your hardware
