SD card compatibility issue.

Unread post by **odroid** » Tue Dec 23, 2014 10:39 am

Some SD cards need extra 30~35 seconds of delay to start the boot process.
We've tested several different cards and made a list on this WiKi.
http://odroid.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id= ... _selection

Note that, sometimes it starts the boot process immediately but sometimes not.

Please reply with your SD card test result.

UPDATE: C1+ has fixed the SD compatibility issue.

SanDisk Ultra Plus micro SDHC UHS-1 Card (40 MBPS) SDSDQUP-O32G-AC46A

Works well and good performance

I've just tested a 128GB SDXC Sandisk micro-SD. Sandisk sent us one sample for free.

It boots very well. But the performance is not good. Only 50% of our official micro-SD cards performance.

Code: Select all

# dd if=/dev/zero of=test.tmp oflag=direct bs=500K count=1024      
1024+0 records in                                                               
1024+0 records out                                                              
524288000 bytes (524 MB) copied, 84.3939 s, 6.2 MB/s                            
# dd if=test.tmp of=/dev/null iflag=direct bs=500K count=1024      
1024+0 records in                                                               
1024+0 records out                                                              
524288000 bytes (524 MB) copied, 36.8543 s, 14.2 MB/s

Anyway, it can be a tiny file server solution for small/home office network storage.

If you don't care the size of box, 2TB 2.5inch USB HDD is much more cost-effective with better performance.

I've just tested a 128GB SDXC Sandisk micro-SD...

Just curious, were you able to run the expansion option of the Odroid-Utility on this 128GB card ?
thanks.

Unread post by **odroid** » Thu Dec 25, 2014 8:52 pm

Yes, I used the ODROID-Utility to expand the rootfs just after first booting.
After rebooting, I could ran the update-kernel without problem.

But this is too much out of topic.

venkatbo · Unread post by **venkatbo** » Thu Dec 25, 2014 9:33 pm

Apologize, did not provide additional info - but thought my question was related. When I ran the expand option on a UHS-1 Class 10 64GB PNY on first boot, it appears to have failed in the process. Noticed a ton of error msgs via UART during reboot. Manual expansion via GParted/check-option yielded no fix either. So was wondering what magic makes some such 32GB+ devices compatible and some not.

In that context, I Wondered how you got your 128GB device to work. Hence the relation to compatibility...
thanks.

We got it to work by connecting to the board and it just works.

I've tested a Samsung 64Gb card and it worked just fine.

My results so far: The most expensive card does not work, and the cheapest card does work. Of course.

DOES NOT WORK AT ALL: Samsung Pro 32GB, model MB-MG32DA white and grey card Class 10/UHS-I described as up to 90MB read/80MB write. Blue LED on the C1 never lights, only the red. Left it up for more than 10+ minutes and never boots at all. Tried multiple times & verified the image was written correctly to the card. No luck.

WORKS: MicroCenter 16GB class 10 card works fine, boots immediately. I believe this is actually a re-branded Adata card of unknown model.

What about to run "resize2fs" on your linux desktop, if you have, with your MicroSD, not with Odroid Utility? This might be out of topic, but I like to have such field experience.

Hey, thank you for the info. You may be read already this, http://odroid.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id= ... _selection, C1 have a problem with MicroSD cards and especially Samsung's MicroSD. We are trying to find a workaround anyway.

Would be helpful if someone experiencing the slow boot issue could test with a serial console plugged and then unplugged from the device to see if it affects the slow boot.

Issuing a "reboot" command with my Sony sd card also causes issues, uboot can still read the card just fine but for some reason linux can't, and it then fails to boot.

Could you tell us what is exact model name of your MicroSD?
Do you success to boot every power cycle with the Card?
Commenting out "disableuhs" can make your C1 boot is little weird to me.

Dug up my invoice, this is the part number on the invoice: MB-MP32DA
Model: Samsung 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 EVO
Link: http://www.samsung.com/sg/consumer/memo ... MP32DA/APC

I double checked, If I uncomment (enable) "setenv disableuhs "disableuhs"" the odroid will not boot with this SD-Card, I just get the Blue LED blinking.
Commenting it out (disabling) allows me to boot, but not reboot.

Just for fun, I bought 2 of the mentioned microSD cards, I put a fresh image on the other card, same issue. Just on the off chance it was a faulty card.

You have Samsung Orange MicroSD.

The 64GB MicroSD on WiKi have different orange behaviour, it supports SDXC. But yours is SDHC.
Can you get a shell via serial console or ssh? If then, could you capture the log when "disableuhs" is enabled?
Seems you have extra MicroSD, so please try Android as well.

Are you meaning the MicroSD is corrupted by only failure boots multiple times? You haven't use C1 with the MicroSD?

Sorry for delay, managed to get the hang of it all now

The Kingston microSD card isn't corrupted its called "user error" failure between chair and keyboard...!

Its was to do with the Android image mucking up the partition table....

In GParted from Device >> create Partition Table

close GParted and then run the dd command

The lubuntu image on the kingston microSD boots fine --- I kinda get the impression that a lot of the problems people are having might be "user error !"

Why do you run Gparted for partitioning since you run "dd" command to flash official image. The official image already include partition table at the beginning of itself, and resize the partition by "resize2fs" to extend the size in Ubuntu.

no_akira · Unread post by **no_akira** » Fri Jan 16, 2015 6:14 am

You are probably correct, it was just that in GParted the /dev/sdc drive had a little red stop sign by it,"no partition table" and I think I was having problems running the dd burn image command....it was just rapidly running though the dd output but not actually burning the image onto the micoSD card.

Created the table in Devices >> Create Part.. Table and the dd burn image command worked fully. Basically to burn the lubuntu image takes about 5 mins +/- a few mins.

Kingston 8GB Class 4 takes a LONG time to boot, upwards of 5 minutes, possibly as long as 10 minutes.

Didn't you have delayed start up with the card on power cycle? Could you check if disableuhs is commented in boot.ini? Some card should be enable the option to start, but it also makes another problem that reboot does not work.

About 10 minutes after I posted I tested enabling UHS and it works fine.
So that card works in UHS mode, fails with it disabled.

Correct, but your card won't boot with reboot command.

You are correct, I had to cycle power and it came up fine, reboot command does not come up

I've got two C1 here. I'm also testing 3 different SD Cards:

Transcend 8GB Class 4
Transcend 4GB Class 6
Samsung microSDHC Pro 32GB UHS 1

The first C1 boots most of the time (I'd say about 80%) without delay.
The second C1 boots nearly never, no matter how long I wait. But if I connect the UART module for debugging and reconnect power, it starts most of the time with ~15 seconds delay and sometimes even without delay. I never had the case of UART module connected and the C1 not booting at all. This behaviour is the same with all 3 SD cards.

ADATA Premier microSDHC Class 10 UHS-I 32Gb (can't find it on adata.com, they show Premier Pro only which is not mine)

With disabled UHS in boot.ini works fine (can see some errors in UART).
With enable UHS seems to work ok but can't reboot (need power cycle).

See attached files for UART logs of Ubuntu and Archlinux booting/rebooting with/without UHS.
Logs contain 'cat boot.ini'.
Both OSs were updated beforehand.

Can hardkernel give us a list of compatible cards... It's getting old pretty fast to buy cards at random and "hope" tehy work. The same is also true for micro hdmi cables.. we have bought a few, most of them simply don't work... some need extra ground wire between the Micro-hdmi jack shield and ground, other simply don't work on the C1 yet work perfectly well on other hosts. Frrustration is sinking in withh these little snags that hurt an otherwise great product.

So please give us your list of known compatible SD cards so we can buy cards knowing they WILL work instead of playing trial and error.

At this moment, we can say only "99.9% of Sandisk cards works with C1".

It is very hard to make the list of cards due to the irregular/erratic different reports.
For example, Samsung EVO UHS-1 works well except for the 30-secodns-delay-boot issue.
But some people told us it boots quickly but it shows the non-reboot-issue.
We've thought that each batches of SD card might be slightly different characteristics.. But we are not sure.

As we noted on this link, there are some cable manufacturers don't follow the HDMI standard.
http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=3323
At this moment, we can say "Hardkernel web store", "Ameridroid web store" and "LiliputeDirect web store" are selling the compatible cable.
We heard from some customers that "Pollin" seems not to be selling the compatible cable.
BTW, we are shipping around several thousands of ODROIDs every month. Only 15~20% of customers are buying our HDMI cable probably.
I think 1% or less of ODROID users might have the issue of the HDMI cable compatibility.
We really regret why we didn't apply the standard HDMI type-A connector even the board size could be bigger.

Can we help you somehow to improve SD compatibility?

ADATA class 10 works well for me too.

I have it and it seems to work well (no boot delay, the best performance) even if I have not tested it for long time.

Using this my simple benchmark:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

echo Write test of 128MB with blocks of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 e 1024KB
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=4K count=32768 oflag=direct
rm zero.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=8K count=16384 oflag=direct
rm zero.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=16K count=8192 oflag=direct
rm zero.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=32K count=4096 oflag=direct
rm zero.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=64K count=2048 oflag=direct
rm zero.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.img bs=1M count=128 oflag=direct

echo Read test of 128MB with blocks of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 e 1024KB
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=4K count=32768 iflag=direct
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=8K count=16384 iflag=direct
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=16K count=8192 iflag=direct
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=32K count=4096 iflag=direct
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=64K count=2048 iflag=direct
dd if=zero.img of=/dev/null bs=1M count=128 iflag=direct

rm zero.img

I obtain the result (UHS-1 mode ON):

SanDisk 16GB Ultra read speed is from minimum 8.3MB/s to maximum 35.5MB/s
SanDisk 16GB Extreme read speed is from minimum 10.2MB/s to maximum 36.5MB/s
SanDisk 16GB Ultra write speed is from minimum 1.4MB/s to maximum 12.5MB/s
SanDisk 16GB Extreme write speed is from minimum 2.6MB/s to maximum 30.5MB/s

Read speed is about the same (but little better on Extreme), but Write speed is much better on Extreme.

Boot time (to text console) decrease of about 2 sec with Extreme (i.e. like 14-15 sec with Extreme and 16-17 sec with Ultra).

PS
With UHS-1 mode OFF, maximum speed is limited to about 20-21MB/s
