A64 HDMI Display works only first time flashing the image to SD Card

[Bala]

Hi,
Can you please help us with HDMI display issue we are facing with A64 board?

We got a A64 and loaded SD card with Focal Base Image from below link
http://images.olimex.com/release/a64/. When we POWER On A64 board, the HDMI display comes up properly. However after we power off and on again, the HDMI display is not coming up, only we could see the message in debug console port. If we load the image (Focal Base) again in SD and then we Power ON, HDMI display works till its not powered Off.

Issue Summary:
1. HDMI display works only when SD image is loaded and Powered ON, once we Power Off and turn it off, it stops working
2. If we reload the image in SD card again, it works again and HDMI display stops working once we power off and power ON.
3. We observed in the log message that HDMI Phy is timing out very quickly and IN/OUT is changing to serial. However this is not the same case when we load image on SD card on Power it ON first time.
4. We tried different HDMI monitors, LG, HP etc

Boot message which is different from when display working
Warning: HDMI PHY init timeout!
Warning: HDMI PHY init timeout!
In:    serial
Out:  serial
Err:  serial


Trials
1. We tried different 5V adapter, 2Amps, 5Amps, from different manufactures
2. We tried different SD Cards from different manufacturer, HP, Sandisk, Storntium
3. We tried different images - Buster Base (http://images.olimex.com/release/a64/)
However the issue exists.

We have captured both first time ON log as well as second time boot log. Please refer below the details.

Did you try to run the script "olinuxino-display" and set HDMI output via it?

[Bala]

Hi,
Thank you so much, Now I tried "olinuxino-display", below are the observation

1. We have following menu options comes when we enter Olinuxino-display

LCD-OLinuXino           Auto detection (without TS)
LCD-OLinuXino-4.3       480 x 272 without TS
LCD-OLinuXino-4.3RTS    480 x 272 with Resis TS
LCD-OLinuXino-5         800 x 480 with Cap TS
LCD-OLinuXino-7         800 x 480 without TS
LCD-OLinuXino-7CTS      1024 x 600 with Cap TS
LCD-OLinuXino-7RTS      800 x 480 with Res TS
LCD-OLinuXino-10        1024 x 600 without TS
LCD-OLinuXino-10CTS     1024 x 600 with Cap TS
LCD-OLinuXino-10RTS     1024 x 600 with Res TS
DISABLE                 Disable Configured panel

2. When we set to "LCD-OLinuXino", the same problem exist and display doesnt come up after we POWER OFF and ON. (This may be the default options hence we got the display issue)

3. When we set to "LCD-OLinuXino-10CTS", the problem didnt come and we could power ON and off, without any issues, however our monitor is larger than this resolution and hence only the portion of display was viable and the menus were not appearing (it may be out of screen)

4. When we set to "DISABLE", the display problem didnt come and we could power ON and off, without any issues, FULL DISPLAY IS APPEARING WITH MENUS.

So we are continuing with "Disable" option which works for us. Thank you so much for your support!

Is it possible to help us with one more thing,
Right now we put the image in SD card and running it, Is it possible for you to help us with steps to run the image from A64 eMMC memory.
 








 

[Bala]

Hi,
we could successfully copy the image and run image/application from eMMC by "olinuxino-sd-to-emmc". Thank you so much.
 

[afancher]

olinuxino-display and olinuxino-sd-to-emmc were the answers to my prayers as well

[Bala]

Thank you, thats working
