Share your t95m-s905x-vfd.conf file and a photo of the LED screen lighting up.

Does uEnv.txt boot and use when you boot in USB?

HI,

it's not my file but
(https://github.com/arthur-liberman/vfd-configurations/blob/master/t95m-s905x-vfd.conf) or

Photo with LED display on :

The image Armbian_22.05.0_Aml_s905x_focal_5.15.32_2022.03.30.1703.img don't boot on USB with uEnv.txt

@chris4git
Based on your feedback, I have added the t95 device, today's repackaged firmware contains the installation information for this device, you can test the installation and LED display is correct.
Feedback the results after the test. thanks

@chris4git have you tried to install your box into eMMC yet?
I have 1 S905x box but it only could boot from USB/TF and unable to boot from eMMC (tried all kernel 5.4, 5.10, 5.15).

Thank you.

Hi @dinhchinh82, no I haven't tried to install on eMMC. I'm afraid to brick it ;-)
Only boot from TF or USB till now.
Is WiFi supported on your box ?

Device works great. Anything I can do to get the internal WiFi detected?

Hi @gsbenjamin
it seems the wifi chip (S9082C) is a variant of rtl8189es so is potentially supported !
Cf https://github.com/ChalesYu/rtl8822bs-aml?tab=readme-ov-file
Let us know if you try...
