[mention]bumerc[/mention] - any chance you could provide a patched DTB for the 3/32G T95z as well? I'm still having problems getting this ROM to see my LAN connection, even though dmesg does see it. So I'm guessing you're right that it's getting down-clocked to 100M and am hoping to get it fixed because I really want to run atvX!

Also, you had mentioned earlier to check some things with 'ethtool', but I'm not finding it on the device. Is it buried somewhere or do I need to add it as a binary?

Please let me know. And thank you!

ethtool is not included in atvx build, I overlooked that.

Thank you! I was able to figure out what needed to be edited in the original DTB file in order to get the ethernet port working yesterday. It connects at 1G now, but unfortunately after some time it simply stops working where no traffic will flow through it anymore so I must have still missed something. I'll try the patched one you provided and hopefully can just 'dd' it without having to reflash the ROM. I'll let you know how it goes.

And thanks for the info about ethtool. I was scratching my head trying to figure out why I couldn't find it! lol

Thanks again!

I haven't had any issues with my fix. I'm constantly connected to the network and it never drops out. I just bought a cheap 10/100 network switch and ran ethernet cables to our roku TV and android TV box from the switch. 100 mbps is more than enough to stream any 1080p source that I find.

you can make a file for km8p 2/16? LAN does not work either.

I tried with the existing file to execute this command, but gives an error on the BS=256K parameter

Thanks

Try byte input, kbytes do not seem to be supported in this DD version.

Code: Select all

dd if=/sdcard/gxm_q201_1g_km8p.dtb of=/dev/block/dtb bs=262144

This file is only for 1g devices. Wait a minute, I'll create a multi_dtb file.
