@György-Farkas I have updated the schematic with the resistors values I was using when the SD card was not visible.

Sure! I have uploaded a PDF schematic on github under the PCB White Rabbit folder. -
RE: [SOLVED] SD card not visible on Omega2+posted in Omega Talk
Solved!
My Omega was controlling some outputs with the help of some transistors. The resistors between Omega and the base of transistors were all 1kohm, which might have been too low for Omega capabilities of 4 mA per GPIO. I replaced all of them with 4k7 and it is now working.I don't even know why I have used such low resitances. I guess I was thinking that if I am not low on power, then why not.

RE: [SOLVED] SD card not visible on Omega2+posted in Omega Talk
Update!
I have disconnected the Omega from the board that I have designed and powered it up separately and now the SD card is discoverable. Thus, something from my PCB is definitely interfering with the SD card. Does anyone have a clue what could be the cause of it?

@crispyoz Omega2+
I have designed my own PCB that I connect Omega2+ to. You can check that out here: https://github.com/cristi-bourceanu/Omega2P_FruitingChamber.git -
RE: Controlling external motors and LED strips with Omega2+posted in Projects
Normally a MCU can withstand a maximum of 20mA on each GPIO and MT7688 chipset of Omega should have a similar specification. The motor you specified seems to have a 13.6 ohm phase resistance, thus you'll definitely need a bridge to control it.
This topic explains how to power up the Omega without a dock: https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/hardware-prep-no-dock.html
This project seems doable with Omega2, but my opinion should not be regarded as 100% true since I am working on my first project with Omega2 at the moment.

@crispyoz I will follow your advise about cross compiling. Remote debugging sounds very satisfying and can't wait to learn about it.
The SD card did not automount and that was my problem in the first place. I have even factory reset it, but nothing changed. I kind of use all the peripherals(GPIOs) available on the omega, but that shouldn't interfere with the SD unless there are some common connections, but I couldn't confirm that since I didn't find any schematic for Omega2+.

RE: [SOLVED] SD card not visible on Omega2+posted in Omega Talk
@crispyoz I didn't know about cross compile. I had just started using Omega, so I am still learning about it.
Thx for your suggestion!
However, I would still like to make the micro SD card useable for future needs. -
[SOLVED] SD card not visible on Omega2+posted in Omega Talk
Hi,
I have just started working with Omega2+ and the first thing I want to do is to boot from SD card, because I want to use the gcc and g++ compilers and Omega does not have enough memory. However the SD card is not visible at all.

I have tried two different SD cards hoping that the problem is the card itself, but nothing changed.
My firmware version is b233.Could someone please help me with this?
