Hello dear,is this img work on Alfawise T9 tv box,RK3328.

Try it and see how it works for you. Run it from Micro-SDcard or USB drive, don't install to eMMC.

Balbes makes "development" images, which will include changes that aren't in the official LibreELEC standard OS images and should work better then official images. So try and see how they work for you.

Hello, I am new to this forum and tv boxes in general. Do most of my work on full size pc's. I just received a X88Max + tv box that I would like to convert from Android to Linux or any OS that supports PI-Hole. From what I understand this has a RK3328 with 4GB ram and 64GB flash.

I was able to re-flash the stock rom with the aid of Rockchip Batch Tool v1.8. However it wont let me flash any non android firmware.
Any ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.

You write Linux to a micro-sd card to boot it.
You chose a very bad device for Linux support.
Devices like the RockPi4 for example is open-source and has several Linux images available to use.

It would be interesting to check on rk3328 support for starting from USB (details in this topic). Then you can have a single image for both rk3328 and rk3399 platforms.

Update Armbian images 5.99_20191121 to rk3328.
DEFAULT - kernel 4.
DEV - kernel 5.
Please note, in the future I plan to completely switch to using kernel 5 for all images. The kernel 4 version will no longer be released.
