Boy you are fast! New error this time…
You passed no model file, only the directory 
Ooops, my bad. That’s what happens when it’s late 
So no errors this time! Recognition was not accurate though.
Awesome, it decodes :). Bad results might have several causes, but it’s another topic
@lissyx shall I open another discussion for the accuracy or should I wait for the next release first? Not that I only face the accuracy problem on the Raspberry Pi.
Yes, please open another thread so we do not pollute this one

@lissyx I am giving it another go. I made a clean install and installed everything from scratch. I am getting the same error and your link for the updated binaries does not work anymore. Can re-upload or even better put them on Github?
This should be good: https://index.taskcluster.net/v1/task/project.deepspeech.deepspeech.native_client.master.arm/artifacts/public/native_client.tar.xz
I gave it another go with your files. I tried another power supply and I had the same problems. There must be a fundamental difference with mine and your setup. Is it possible to export the img from your SD card and I burn onto my SD?
We could, but I’ll have to be in the office to do that, so not before tomorrow at best. Besides, can you sha1sum to verify everything? Models, audio, code, libs?
There you go:

I have realised a few things:
- The very first error that I got was because of lm.binary which is around 1,5GB. It does not fit into RPi’s memory and that is why it crashes.
- The second error that I got (trying without lm.binary) got resolved by using your “LDC93S1” output_graph.pb. Of course recognition was totally off in that case.
So the questions arise:
- What is the lm.binary file and is it really needed?
- How can accuracy be achieved without the lm.binary file?
- Is there a proper output_graph.pb that I can use?
lm.binary is the language model, used to improve recognition when accoustic model was phonetically right but the word was wrong.
For output_graph.pb, I think the one I used for “good” decoding was the test overfit LC93S1.
I just checked @fotiDim and in my tests above, perfect decoding was achieved on overfitted LDC93S1 output_graph.pb

SHA1 for release’s output_graph.pb and alphabet.txt matches yours, but as you can see in the post above, I have proper decoding.
That is weird then. Can I ask as last favor to hand out the .img from your sd card?

Hello,
I am trying to infer a custom trained model with native client in a Asus Thinkerboard, a card similar to raspberry with 32bit armv7l architecture.
I tried to compile from scratch, including tensorflow, but ended up with the same error than this issue is reporting (the SparseToDense one).
Then I tried your raspberry-ready compiled libraries downloaded from:
https://queue.taskcluster.net/v1/task/Wnpx0NPjS3G20t76jbl15Q/runs/0/artifacts/public/native_client.tar.xz
But unfortunately this new “Illegal instruction” error showed up:
Thread 1 “deepspeech” received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
0xb692de84 in tensorflow::(anonymous namespace)::GraphConstructor::TryImport() () from /home/ftx/fonotexto/herramientas/DeepSpeech/nativelibs_jmd/libdeepspeech.so
(NOTE: in my raspberry pi3 these libraries work fine).
So I would like to do a specific compilation for the Thinkerboard card, could you give me any hint to do that and skip the SparseToDense error?
Thanks in advance,
Mar
Heads up, I have been working on moving to newer GCC toolchain (from Linaro) and build armv7-a binaries. This URL should point to that: https://index.taskcluster.net/v1/task/project.deepspeech.deepspeech.native_client.master.arm/artifacts/public/native_client.tar.xz
Switching to this newer toolchain also enabled me to make it cleaner to build for other targets. You can copy some of the build flags we have defined here: https://github.com/mozilla/tensorflow/blob/7455bfae5cc3b5eafbc9a5d8faee33e7772a4d12/tools/bazel.rc#L52-L56
Make sure you pass all those you need in --copt=, and adapt things like -mtune.
