bluetooth does not work with v1.8 and radxa a8 module (rtl8852be). i tried toggling bluetooth in settings and it doesnt turn on, and searching for accessories never shows anything. It does seem like the colorspace issue has been fixed in this version. Thank you

@knuxyl Seems it might be a problem after adding Intel wifi/bt drivers.
I will have to build a firmware without Intel drivers and check.

I donlt understand any of what you wrote in h elower half of your post
wha tis androidtool v2.96what is SDDikTool v1.72? what do youb ean update.img?
all I know is that I used balena etcher to write the Andriod image to the eMMC and it said it flashed the image successfully
I am using the official radxa 30w poer supply
power now but tried others and get the same results
after flashing the iage i poped in the eMMC and plug in th boards and I get a solid green LED and nothting else.
Was I not supposed to use balena etcher to write the image to the eMMC?
do i need to press one of these 3 micro switch buttons or something?
it just wonāt do anything
AndroidTool is Rockchipās tool to flash update.img that are 2GB in size.
For gpt images that are 4GB in size you use Etcher.
My images are gpt except Rock5B nvme image which is flashed with AndroidTool.
SDDiskTool is used to flash update.img to micro-sd or USB and is not used in your case.
Try to flash the official Radxa images first and see if you get them booting perhaps since it might be your first time using Rockchip devices.
You can perhaps try to write with etcher and a micro-sd card and remove the emmc.
Ok thanjs for cllearking that up
It was actualy the Rock 5B Android 12.1 rkr12 image that I flashed to the eC not tour
s turns out that th eproblem was the eMMC not being seated correctly
well not that it wans.t corrent but it is just poorly made and the ZIF sockets let the modle rock around it can rock to one side or the other, I trued shifting it and now it boots!
This is a known isue apparenly as I have seen other talk bout how their eMC module just opps pff randomly, mine has n;t done that yet but it just wont sit righ tno matter what I do.I mean this applying pressure on one side causes it to rock and I canlt get it so you can press on it and not move.
I don have a quesiton about update.img files though
so are these a way to upadate an existing image on the eMMC (or SD)?
or is is a whllle new OS image?
I have flashed an older verion of the android image and i wan tot know if I can update it with an update.img without having to replfash a whole new OS image and how wold I go about doing that ?
I mean do i need to remove the eMMC from the board again and use the eMMC ro SD adaper 9 i really dont want to mess with the eMMC again and would like to not have to detach it again)
or can I do it through a serial TTL or USB connection?
Someone in the othe rthread mentioned that they were able to connect their board to their PC via USB and flash it from there, but when I plug my board in to my pc it is shown as an unrecognized USB device and It doesnlt show up in windows explorer of disk maagement and I it doesnlt find any drivers for it.
not sure ow you can go about flashing the emmc by plugging theboard into the PC via USB or where to find the proper dirver to get it recognized.
I jus want to update the image and not have to mes with eMMC socket again because it is a weak point
Is this doneļ¼where can I download
I will try to update the firmwares this week if radxa releases an update as they promised.
There were several other audio problems discovered that Rockchip already fixed over 8 months ago that are still present in Rock 5A/B.
So I donāt want to waste time making multiple firmwares until the problems are resolved.
Iāve got the same Problem. Iāve tested with different Versionās of RKDevTool (up to v3.15) and keep getting the same error with the NVMe v1.8 update.img.
I still had the NVMe v1.6 update.img laying around, flashing that one was no issue at all and worked even with different RKDevTool version.
Could someone elaborate on the correct approach (Windows or Linux)?
Tried with a 128G and 512G NVMe, no differences there.
@arki
Iāll rebuild the nvme image later.
Only thing I can think of is the Intel drivers that were added caused the images to be bigger somehow and that is why it showed the error when flashing. The v1.6 images didnāt contain Intel drivers.
Still no news from radxa, we can only hope for next week perhaps for a solution for the sound & other problems.
Hey, Iām pretty new to the Rock5b scene.
I have flashed every single img file available for download and none of them boot. I am able to boot from my nvme drive fine with the offical linux image, but not the offical android image or this one. Anyone have suggestions?
nvme booting needs a special bootloader on the SPI flash memory. Booting from an SD card or eMMC is much easier.
