Nmcli doesn’t work to identify the hardware, it was my mistake. We need something like lsusb but for sdio, but don’t know.
Anyone can help?
I just found out from this Q & A, that H96 Max RK3399 wifi module is QCA9377, Bluetooth 4.1
But I don’t know how to install that driver and change the dtb part.
Install this
sudo pacman -Syy kvim2-firmware
If x99.dtb is good your ap6255 will work.
I tried to install AP6255 but it didn’t work.
However, I used my Vim3 image with the u-boot nano-pc-t4. dtb Rockpro64, kernel 5.10 it seems wifi works out of the box. But I don’t know which driver that is being used.
How can I check which driver is being used by my internal wifi on Manjaro?
If I used nmcli,
wifi (ath10k_sdio)
Is this the driver?
I cannot find it in /lib/firmware/brcm/
EDIT:
I found “ath10k” folder in /lib/firmware
After transferring the folder to the other sd card now my internal wifi is activated
Now how can I activate the bluetooth? how to check if bluetooth is recognized?
what is the command similar to nmcli for bluetooth?
Your wifi driver is atheros and to know about Bluetooth
dmesg |grep -i Bluetooth
Will give you some info.
On Manjaro I didn’t get any result
but on Armbian I got this result (after installing bluetooth module via armbian-config, but bluetooth is not working)
$ dmesg |grep -i Bluetooth
[ 31.679004] Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
[ 31.679017] Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast
[ 31.679038] Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized
I don’t know what is the driver of this bluetooth?

Ok
Rfkill reports is not blocked so no problems there but radio is not up. From second report seems you have rtl, Intel, qca and bcm drivers too many for just a device. Only last two could work.
Kill rtl and Intel if you know howto but better ask for support in general forum as this is not arm specific and I don’t know how to proceed.
Ok many thanks for your suggestion, I’ll ask in general forum
While waiting for cavalry you can try
Sudo modprobe -r btrtl btintel btbcm
dmesg | egrep -i ‘blue|firm’
$ sudo modprobe -r btrtl btintel btbcm
modprobe: FATAL: Module btrtl is in use.
$ dmesg | egrep -i ‘blue|firm’
bash: firm’: command not found
Have a look here
@SickOS You are amazing…!!!
Many Thanks for your link, finally I figure it out how to fix the Bluetooth. The answer is I have to change the dtb to dts, and then replace the bluetooth compatible driver to QCA9377. Now Bluetooth is working perfectly on my H96 Max - RK3399 Box.
Here’s the step by step:
- Convert the working dtb into dts (In my case the best working dtb is rk3399-rockpro64.dtb):
dtc -I dtb -O dts /your/dtb/location/rk3399-rockpro64.dtb -o /your/dts/location/rk3399-rockpro64.dts
- Edit the dts file (you can use nano or text editor, I would recommend using text editor), if you uses terminal use this nano command:
nano /your/dts/location/rk3399-rockpro64.dts
- Find the word “bluetooth”, and then edit the line below from this:
bluetooth {
compatible = "brcm,bcm43438-bt";
Into this:
bluetooth {
compatible = "qcom,qca9377-bt";
-
Now save your rk3399-rockpro64.dts
-
Rename “rk3399-rockpro64.dts” into “rk3399-H96Max.dts”
-
Let’s convert the dts back to dtb
dtc -I dts -O dtb /your/dts/location/rk3399-H96Max.dts -o /your/dtb/location/rk3399-H96Max.dtb
-
Now copy and paste your new dtb into your SDCard dtb folder
-
Now change the configuration text to your new “rk3399-H96Max.dtb”
-
Insert your SD Card to your RK3399-H96 Max Box
-
Your box should now be able to run bluetooth without a problem
Enjoy!
Big Thanks to maz-1 from Github:

If you need my dtb and dts, you can download it from my post on Armbian, I cannot attach any document here:

Now, my last question the only think that is not solved yet is how to make the Audio Jack working. @SickOS : Do you have any idea to fix the audio jack issue?
Happy to see the link worked.
No idea about sound, in fact I don’t have it in Manjaro. Check with alsamixer if audio-jack is muted.
Yes, it is muted. But I cannot change the Mute to unmute by pressing M and Up arrow
In Alsamixer, my Right Headphone Mixer RLIN is off, I cannot turn it on by pressing M
also the DAC Soft Ramp is off as well.
Just to let you know that I have two output in Volume Control:
- HDMI Output
- Audio Jack Output
The HDMI is working, but the Audio Jack isn’t.
I have Allwinner H5 box, it has those two outputs in Volume Control and both are working very well on Manjaro. Therefore, I am pretty sure that there must be a setting that is missing to activate those Audio Jack.
It seems that the ES8316 is muted by default.
There is this solution on github, but I don’t know how to apply it?
here’s my aplay report:
$ aplay -l

Help would be appreciated
It seems you have to use mixer to switch on with these commands
mixer $rockchiprk3399 ‘Right Headphone Mixer Right DAC’ on
mixer $rockchiprk3399 ‘Left Headphone Mixer Left DAC’ on

User can change it using amixer instead of the commands.
