rpi3 freeze at start-up with v0.9.0

cemoi71

Hello all,

i've the problem that the OS freeze at start-up after upgrade from 0.8.1 to the v0.9.0.
I've an rpi 3 b+ with official rpi 7" Display.
Give the screenshot where it stop.

Restart stay with the same issue.
For those who are interested I'll wait a little bit, then i reverse back to the v0.8.1

Cheers

cemoi71

path of screenshot didn't work...
now here as link

IKS

Thanks for the screenshot. I don't think it is frozen. Probably just a resolution issue. Can you copy&paste the content of your config.txt file?

cemoi71

/boot/config.txt

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_drive=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt=1280 720 60
hdmi_force_hotplug=1

disable_overscan=1
disable_fw_kms_setup=1

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-256
avoid_warnings=2

dtparam=sd_force_pio=on
dtparam=i2c1=on
dtparam=i2c_arm=on

dtparam=audio=on
audio_pwm_mode=2

initial_turbo=30
start_x=1
kernel=u-boot.bin

Woaw ! where comes those 1280x720?
Is there an autoconfig tool by install or upgrade, which determine the resolution automatically?
if yes how do it reference itself?

cemoi71

i've change it into hdmi_cvt=800 480 60 that's not better.
does anyone knows how may be the refresh rate ?
i don't know if the 60hz fits

cemoi71

I verified the refresh rate that's indeed the 60fps
now i don't know what else could be the problem...

@IKS you're right it is not frozen, i may communicate with adb (sadly not with ssh).

IKS

I think hdmi_cvt=800 480 60 is fine.
The first thing you should try is changing

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-256
to
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-256

Also, if you have ADB working, please do "adb shell getprop" and paste the result here.

There is a different thread about the SSH issue. Sorry for that, upgrades to newer versions always have hidden issues 🙁

cemoi71

ok i'll try this.

There is a different thread about the SSH issue.
Yes i now i observe the thread.

Sorry for that, upgrades to newer versions always have hidden issues
Yes i know especially with beta version. No problem i know the risks. And at the end i decided to do the upgrade only by myself. I thought, if it goes wrong i'll go back to the v0.8.1. But wanted to wait a little bit for giving a little bit time to share my issue and maybe give a little chance for an improvement...
That's all right, thanks a lot for staying on the line.

cemoi71

I started the device today and remark that the definition went back to 1280x720
I gave the command "adb shell getprop" and saw "[persist.rpi.mode.force]: [1280x720@60]"
for changing screen size with adb i found this link
Commands:

adb shell wm size 800x480
adb reboot
But it still with 1280 720 60 🙁
System put it back with the wrong size automatically by each restarts

cemoi71

ideally would be to have a webgui to parametrize it and have all possibilities to have info of the device...
On what emteria os is based? would it be possible to use cockpit webmin or ajenti? (or something like that)

IKS

Did you change the overlay as I proposed above? Please also post the content of adb shell getprop. It would be great if we can find out the cause, so the next stable version will have it fixed.

cemoi71

display works with this parameter dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-256 but size is not 800x480, picture is too big.
size is better with resolution 1280x720 but anyway wrong, it miss a margin on the right side. the v0.8.1 was better in this aspect

now my adb shell getprop give the following things

IKS

Sorry, but I need it altogether:
1) Keep fkms overlay
2) Set 800 600 60 resolution in config.txt
3) Reboot and wait for the system to boot
4) Call adb shell getprop

cemoi71

Hi
fkms overlay is kept
set 800 600 60
after reboot gui is displayed but size is still not proper.
Compared to the v0.8.1 all elements seems to bee bigger, and system spare a margin on right side
adbshell getprop gives the followings things

cemoi71

is that here the problem?
https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1278

IKS

No, I think the problem is on our side. This line is bothering me:

[persist.rpi.mode.force]: [1280x720@60]
Can you try running adb shell setprop persist.rpi.mode.force 800x480@60 and reboot the device afterwards?

EDIT: The official touchscreen doesn't support 800x600, but only 800x480 (https://thepihut.com/products/official-raspberry-pi-7-touchscreen-display). So try adapting your config file.

cemoi71

that's correct. let me ask just one question. how did it work with the v0.8.1?
i ask me where comes the 1280x720. i don't know how it was with the 0.8.1.
I wait for my 2nd sdcard so that i may switch between v.0.8.1 and others (here v0.9.0) for being able to compare.
I'll try now what you ask me for...

cemoi71

negatif!
that's quite the same. i let the option fkms...

what strange is, the first seconds of emteria splash screen is fully correct in resolution.
Then comes a rearrangement where the logo get bigger, after that the screen is shifted a little bit right, and a little bit down (two black margin upstairs and left), and a blue margin on the right side for the software.

would it be possible that a module is missed on the boot folder or a link to the correct is broken?
As i understand for the 3d effect the mesa interface is used, but i don't know where it is...
cma256 is not too much for the memory?

So try adapting your config file.
i don't know how i'd managed it. normally is size 800x480 not an other one.
Maybe would be some possibilities to play with fps, but 60 is required...

What i ask me is Why it overwrite the size with 1280x720?
On what it is based, an autoconfig management tool is acting?
Seems that all happened by start during the splash screen process...
would be cool to know what is by acting and maybe stop this auto-things tool...

As i told before, as soon as i get my other card i may play "in parallel" with the v0.8.1 to compare both...

See you soon here. cheers

cemoi71

Hello,
i tried the things described in https://help.emteria.com/kb/devices-rpi-3#enforcing-custom-resolution-by-manual-configuration
And i come nearer on a better screens size. Sadly i should let the f in fkms by the overlay.
Without this nothing works, system freeze in console mode.

the 2 prop object in /system/build.prop didn't exist
persist.rpi.mode.auto=0
persist.rpi.mode.force=1024x600
I add it by myself.

It gives then as result (only with fkms overlay) a better screen size, but still a margin on the right side in blue-sky color where no software could cover it in full-size mode...

Cheers

IKS

Can you post a screenshot? You shouldn't be using any other resolution except for 800x480@60. You also shouldn't be adding any properties to /system/build.prop, since the tutorial is not up-to-date for 0.9.x.
