💡Tip: The current box of s905 can only be used in TF/SD/USB, and other types of boxes can also be used in EMMC at the same time. The s905w boxs currently only support 5.4 kernels, Cannot use kernel version 5.10 and above, Other devices can be freely selected. Please refer to the instructions for dtb and u-boot of each device.

Install to EMMC and update instructions

Choose the corresponding firmware according to your box. Then write the IMG file to the USB hard disk through software such as Rufus or balenaEtcher. Insert the USB hard disk into the box. Common for all Amlogic s9xxx tv box.

• Install OpenWrt

Log in to the default IP: 192.168.1.1 → Login in to openwrt → system menu → Amlogic Service → Install OpenWrt

• Update OpenWrt

Log in to the default IP: 192.168.1.1 → Login in to openwrt → system menu → Amlogic Service → Update OpenWrt

Tip: Functions such as install/update are provided by luci-app-amlogic to provide visual operation support. Also supports command operations.

• Use OpenWrt in TF/USB

Log in to the default IP: 192.168.1.1 → Login in to openwrt → system menu → TTYD terminal → input command

openwrt-tf

After activating the remaining space, the kernel and OpenWrt system can be upgraded in TF/USB.

• Create swap for openwrt system

If you feel that the memory of the current box is not enough when you are using applications with a large memory footprint such as docker, you can create a swap virtual memory partition, Change the disk space of /mnt/*4 A certain capacity is virtualized into memory for use. The unit of the input parameter of the following command is GB, and the default is 1.

Log in to the default IP: 192.168.1.1 → Login in to openwrt → system menu → TTYD terminal → input command

openwrt-swap 1

• Backup/restore the original EMMC system

Supports backup/restore of the box's EMMC partition in TF/SD/USB. It is recommended that you back up the Android TV system that comes with the current box before installing the OpenWrt system in a brand new box, so that you can use it in the future when restoring the TV system.

Please start the OpenWrt system from TF/SD/USB, Log in to the default IP: 192.168.1.1 → Login in to openwrt → system menu → TTYD terminal → input command

openwrt-ddbr

According to the prompt, enter b to perform system backup, and enter r to perform system recovery.

💡Tip: You must use the /mnt/*4/ space to store the BACKUP-arm-64-emmc.img.gz backup file, Users who have not created the TF/SD/USB extended partition must first use the openwrt-tf command to create the extended partition.

Compilation and packaging method

Provide multiple ways to generate the OpenWrt firmware you need. Please choose one method you like. Each method can be used independently.

• Local packaging instructions

1. Install the necessary packages (E.g Ubuntu 20.04 LTS user)

sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get full-upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install -y $(curl -fsSL git.io/ubuntu-2004-openwrt)

2. Clone the repository to the local. git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-openwrt.git
3. Create a openwrt-armvirt folder, and upload the OpenWrt firmware of the ARM kernel ( Eg: openwrt-armvirt-64-default-rootfs.tar.gz ) to this ~/amlogic-s9xxx-openwrt/openwrt-armvirt directory.
4. Name the kernel package according to the corresponding version number, such as 5.4.170 version, and put it into the ~/amlogic-s9xxx-openwrt/amlogic-s9xxx/amlogic-kernel directory.
5. Enter the ~/amlogic-s9xxx-openwrt root directory. And run Eg: sudo ./make to make selection settings. The generated OpenWrt firmware is in the out directory under the root directory.

• Github.com One-stop compilation instructions

You can modify the configuration file in the router-config directory and .yml file, customize the OpenWrt firmware, and complete the packaging online through Actions, and complete all the compilation of OpenWrt firmware in github.com One-stop.

1. Personalized plug-in configuration in router-config directory. Workflows configuration in .yml file.
2. Select Build OpenWrt on the Action page. Click the Run workflow button.

- name: Build OpenWrt firmware
  id: build
  run: |
    [ -d openwrt-armvirt ] || mkdir -p openwrt-armvirt
    cp -f openwrt/bin/targets/*/*/*.tar.gz openwrt-armvirt/ && sync
    sudo chmod +x make
    sudo ./make -d -b s905x3_s905x2_s905x_s905w_s905d_s922x_s912 -k 5.15.13_5.4.170
    echo "PACKAGED_OUTPUTPATH=${PWD}/out" >> $GITHUB_ENV
    echo "PACKAGED_OUTPUTDATE=$(date +"%Y.%m.%d.%H%M")" >> $GITHUB_ENV
    echo "::set-output name=status::success"

The output variable ${{ env.PACKAGED_OUTPUTPATH }} is the path where the packaged file is located.

• Use github.com Releases rootfs file to packaging

If there is an openwrt-armvirt-64-default-rootfs.tar.gz file in a Releases in your repository, you can use this file to directly package the required firmware.

• openwrt_s9xxx_.* is Prefix the tag_name in the Release.
• openwrt-armvirt-64-default-rootfs.tar.gz is the firmware you are going to package, please refer to router-config for compilation method.

For more instructions please see: use-releases-file-to-packaging.yml

- name: Build OpenWrt firmware
  id: build
  run: |
    [ -d openwrt-armvirt ] || mkdir -p openwrt-armvirt
    curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}/releases" | grep -o "openwrt_s9xxx_.*/openwrt-armvirt-.*\.tar.gz" | head -n 1 > DOWNLOAD_URL
    [ -s DOWNLOAD_URL ] && wget -q -P openwrt-armvirt https://github.com/${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}/releases/download/$(cat DOWNLOAD_URL)
    sudo chmod +x make
    sudo ./make -d -b s905x3_s905x2_s905x_s905w_s905d_s922x_s912 -k 5.15.13_5.4.170
    echo "PACKAGED_OUTPUTPATH=${PWD}/out" >> $GITHUB_ENV
    echo "PACKAGED_OUTPUTDATE=$(date +"%Y.%m.%d.%H%M")" >> $GITHUB_ENV
    echo "::set-output name=status::success"

This function is suitable for the needs of replacing the kernel packaging and packaging the OpenWrt firmware of the specified amlogic-dtb separately. As long as you have the openwrt-armvirt-64-default-rootfs.tar.gz file in the Releases of your repository, you can package the OpenWrt firmware you want at any time, which is efficient and convenient.

• Use GitHub Action to packaging instructions

For more instructions please see: .yml example
