Ah, ok. Thx for the explanation. This means you used the older Android image that only initialised 1GB DRAM on the 2GB board so the bug could not be triggered. Well, now it's too late but if I were you I would've explained that earlier since many users came to the (wrong) conclusion that you didn't do software QA at all.

Anyway: Given the huge amount of redundant questions and bad experiences users have when trying out the boards and aren't able to get them running (or think they won't boot due to the HDMI issues) I hope for you and your users that documentation improves quickly and that users are pointed to it already when they unbox their board.

The Android image initialized 2GB DRAM on the 2GB board, the Ethernet bug didn't trigger due to our Android software team already get the updated Ethernet driver from Allwinner that I have not aware.
