I am unsure whether this pull request should be submitted as it modifies the configuration for the Orange Pi 5 Max, which might cause it to not work with the vendor kernel. If anyone could help improve this pull request, I would greatly appreciate it. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This will break vendor I mostly guess. This shall not happen.
If different settings are necessary for both edge and vendor use functions to set them depending on branch.
If the dts, which now is applied as patch, is complete I suggest to add it directly like these: https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/main/patch/kernel/archive/rockchip64-6.12/dt
Overall it might be worth waiting for general bump of edge to 6.13-rc and then rebase on top if that then
|
Thank you for your reply. At this stage, since the bcmdhd deb packages generated for 6.12 and 6.13 cannot be installed, it is likely that different settings will be needed. I will close this pull request and wait for the edge to be updated to 6.13-rc1. |
Vendor for this board is broken - it builds but doesn't work, it is unstable, no PCI, no wifi |
Feel free to fix it. This is community supported. Its status is unknown to the core team. |

I have added some fixes to make bcmdhd build for kernel 6.13: armbian/bcmdhd-dkms#1 |

@shenmintao Thank you man! I was able to build 6.13 with your patch, somehow I applied it on current master (there are conflicting patches for Orange Pi 5 Plus), and I was able to get working 6.13 (server build for now), which at least return normally lsmod, unlike "vendor" build of Armbian, and seems no any HW issues, at least it can power on and power off without any stucked processes.
I think, the point of @ErikApption was it's not a pity to break the vendor build, because it doesn't work normally anyway. At least desktop. Prebuild minimal build somehow able to work and handle bluetooth adapter, I didn't test wifi yet. But prebuld desktop build is fully broken, it is not able to start normally. I was able to build desktop based on Debian, it can start at least. But gdm crashes after some time or some packets installed. @amazingfate I see it was merged just hour ago, I will go for test it, thanks! |
My vendor build is unstable and crashes after setting up the password. That is server build, not desktop. Thanks for @amazingfate new driver, the build for 6.13 BUILDS 🎉 but it doesn't boot :-\ Anyway, this is what I am running The build never gets a red light so I am worried something is broken in u-boot... is that possible? |
|
I was able to build it, will send PR soon, just need a bit more testing. |
Noticed there is a patch for wifi for orange pi 5 plus in 6.13 - believe it does patch some dts overlays, pretty sure it is the same wifi as this board. |

Hi everyone, I noticed that the dts for Orange Pi 5 Max has been merged in
the 6.14 kernel branch. Perhaps we could try porting it to the current edge
version. The DTS is located at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmind/linux-rockchip.git/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip?h=for-next,
or alternatively, we could wait for the 6.14-rc1 release.
The non-functional WiFi and Bluetooth are known issues—maybe we should
experiment with the newer bcmdhd driver.
Additionally, I believe there's a fundamental difference between the WiFi
implementations of Orange Pi 5 Plus and Orange Pi 5 Max. The Plus model
features an M.2 E-Key slot, requiring users to purchase a compatible WiFi
module separately, while the Max uses an onboard AP6611S chip that requires
proper bcmdhd driver support to function.

BTW wifi is not working with new module, the same as it was on "vendor"
Armbian build.
