ROCK Pi N10 comes with on board eMMC, you can install images to eMMC with USB. The installation is running in maskrom mode, which is a special running mode the CPU is waiting for command from USB OTG port. The PC tool we use to communicate with ROCK Pi in maskrom mode is rkdevelop tool, an open source tool by Rockchip.

ROCK Pi N10 comes with on board eMMC, you can install images to eMMC with USB. The installation is running in Maskrom mode, which is a special running mode that the CPU is waiting for command from USB OTG port. We can flash the system image on Windwos/Linux/Mac. We recommend AndroidTool on Windows PC while rkdeveloptool on Linux/Mac.

    ROCK Pi N10 >  Development >  Install from USB OTG 

This guide describes how to flash the GPT-FORMAT system image from USB OTG port.

ROCK Pi N10 comes with on board eMMC, you can install images to eMMC with USB. The installation is running in Maskrom mode, which is a special running mode that the CPU is waiting for command from USB OTG port. We can flash the system image on Windwos/Linux/Mac. We recommend AndroidTool on Windows PC while rkdeveloptool on Linux/Mac.

Requirement

  • ROCK Pi N10 main board
  • Power adapter
  • USB Male A to Male A cable(important) USB-C has been seen as not working, an adaptor for USB-C to USB-A has worked. See discussion.

Boot the board to Maskrom mode

To boot ROCK Pi N10 into maskrom mode is simple since we have the maskrom key on board.

  • Power off the board and remove any bootable storage media such as microSD card. If your board has SPI Flash and you have bootloader in SPI flash, you need to shortcut SPI flash first as picture below. Or you can erase SPI flash at first.

  • Plug the USB Male A to Mail A cable to ROCK Pi N10 OTG port(the front USB3 port), the other side to PC

  • Power on the board
  • Press and hold the maskrom key, short press the reset key

Rockpin10 maskrom key.jpeg(click to view large image)

  • Release the maskrom key

Check if the board is in the maskrom mode.

Now on your Linux/MAC PC, lsusb command would show the following usb devices

 Bus 001 Device 014: ID 2207:330c Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Company RK3399 in Mask ROM mode

On windows PC, you will see it within device manager.

Operation on Windows PC

Setup tools Rockchip_DriverAssitant

Download and extract Rockchip_DriverAssitant V4.8.

Then double click on DriverInstall.exe in the Rockchip_DriverAssitant_v4.8 directory to start the utility.

press the button "Install Driver" and a window showing "Install driver ok." is popped up.

When ROCK Pi N10 is in Maskrom mode, you will see a Rockusb device on the device manager window.

Now the driver has been installed successfully!

Flash system image via AndroidTool

Download and extract AndroidTool V2.69

  • Step 1: Double click file AndroidTool.exe to start the application.
  • Step 2: Select the Download Image page, you will see "Found One MASKROM device"
  • Step 3: Add one item line, the Loader line. And select the loader. rk3399pro_loader_3GB_ddr_v1.22.115.bin for ROCK Pi N10 Model A and rk3399pro_loader_v1.20.115.bin for ROCK Pi N10 Model B/C.
  • Step 4: Add one item line, the Image line. And select the system image.
  • Step 5: Click "Run" and wait until the flash work is done.

Operation on Linux/Mac PC

Setup tool rkdeveloptool on Linux PC

To build rkdeveloptool on a debain based Linux distribution, follow the instruction below:

Install build dependecy:

 sudo apt-get install libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev dh-autoreconf

Clone the source code and build:

 git clone https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool
 cd rkdeveloptool
 autoreconf -i
 ./configure
 make

If you encounter compile error like below

 ./configure: line 4269: syntax error near unexpected token `LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0'
 ./configure: line 4269: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0)'

You should install pkg-config libusb-1.0

 sudo apt-get install pkg-config libusb-1.0

Then re-run

 autoreconf -i
 ./configure
 make

Now you have rkdeveloptool executable at the current directory.

 sudo cp rkdeveloptool /usr/local/bin/

Setup tool rkdeveloptool on Mac PC

To build rkdeveloptool on macOS, you need homebrew(or similar package manager) to install required packages.

Install build dependency:

 brew install automake autoconf libusb

Clone the source code and build:

 git clone https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool
 cd rkdeveloptool
 autoreconf -i
 ./configure
 make

If you encounter compile error like below

 ./configure: line 4269: syntax error near unexpected token `LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0'
 ./configure: line 4269: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0)'

You should install pkg-config libusb-1.0

 brew install pkg-config

Then re-run

 autoreconf -i
 ./configure
 make

Now you have rkdeveloptool executable at the current directory.

 sudo cp rkdeveloptool /usr/local/bin/

Flash system image

On your PC, run the rkdeveloptool

 rkdeveloptool ld        # List the device
 DevNo=1	Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x330c,LocationID=305	Maskrom

Download the loader (flash helper) to init the ram and prepare the flashing environment etc. If you don't have it, you can download it from here

 rkdeveloptool db rk3399pro_loader_3GB_ddr_v1.22.115.bin  # For ROCK Pi N10 Model A
   
 rkdeveloptool db rk3399pro_loader_vxxxx.bin  # For ROCK Pi N10 Model B/C

Write the GPT image to eMMC, start to write from offset 0.

 rkdeveloptool wl 0 /path/to/rockpin10xxx-gpt.img

Reboot the device

 rkdeveloptool rd

Now the device should boot the new image on eMMC

Install by partitions(optional)

Sometimes we only want to update a partition of the image, for example only the boot partition to update kernel only. We can flash by partitions

Part Number Offset Name Description
raw 32KB loader1 First stage loader
raw 8MB loader2 U-boot image
raw 12MB trust ATF
1 16MB boot Kernel partition, bootable
2 528MB rootfs Rootfs

When the board is in maskrom mode, flash the partitions with the following command and offset:

 rkdeveloptool db rk3399pro_loader_*.bin
 rkdeveloptool wl 64 idbloader.img
 rkdeveloptool wl 16384 uboot.img
 rkdeveloptool wl 24576 trust.img
 rkdeveloptool wl 32768 boot.img
 rkdeveloptool wl 1081344 rootfs.img

Troubleshooting
