MECOOL KM3 Works

flymike opened this issue · 8 comments

This is not a bug, just a report of that my MECOOL KM3 (S905x2, 4G/64G/100M net) work great with meson-g12a-sei510.dtb. Ethernet/WiFi/BT all work correctly.
This TV box used to be very popular...

Thank you very much for your sharing, I will record it in CONTRIBUTOR.md and support list, have you tested him to support 5.15 kernel?

Yes. I'm using the latest 5.15 kernel, booted from USB3 thumb drive. Power led, Reboot and Shutdown also work properly.

Does it support writing to emmc?
Are you using this configuration?

FDTFILE="meson-g12a-sei510.dtb"
UBOOT_OVERLOAD="u-boot-x96max.bin"
MAINLINE_UBOOT="/lib/u-boot/x96max-u-boot.bin.sd.bin"
ANDROID_UBOOT=""
AMLOGIC_SOC="s905x2"

Just my 2 cents, on Mecool KM9 PRO 4G/32G/100M (which is just another name for the km3, android images work interchangeably) kernel 6.1 doesn't boot at all, only 5.15 works.

meson-g12a-sei510.dtb is unusable because the sd card keeps resetting
meson-g12a-u200.dtb has everything working perfectly including eth0, but no wlan (I decompiled the dtb and there's none, so not suprising)
meson-g12a-x96max has wlan working but eth0 crashes on a dma error, which slows the boot process quiet a lot, so not ideal

I'll try to see if I can add the wlan to the u200 dtb at some point, for now this devicetree with a usb wifi dongle seems to be the best compromise

Mecool KM9 PRO

bro i have a Mecool KM9 PRO, do you have any openwrt for this device?

Mecool KM9 (Not Pro) is also suitable for meson-g12a-sei510.dtb

I have the Mecool KM9 (4/32/100) and trying to boot this. I renamed u-boot-sei510.bin to u-boot.ext but it boots to Android recovery. What other steps should I take? Thanks.
