ICS4.0.4v1.0-04.tar.gz MD5 checksum 9dad6b10618f12464cdd1164a6ee8c12 --) The "Test_Doc" folder contains the software test plan and test progress log for this DM3730 Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 v1.0 release image. 2) What's New ------------- --) Initial support for Logic PD's DM3730 Torpedo SOM, DM3730 Torpedo + Wireless SOM, and DM3730 SOM-LV on Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4. NOTE: The AM3703 Torpedo SOM, AM3703 Torpedo + Wireless SOM, and AM3703 SOM-LV models are not supported in this release. --) This release adds support for two new standard SOM configurations that have 512 MB of DDR. The model numbers for the new standard SOM configurations are SOMDM3730-20-1880AGIR and SOMDM3730-30-1880AKIR. 3) Known Issues --------------- --) [DM3730ANDROID-315] - Bluetooth does not work after system resumes from suspend mode. --) [DM3730ANDROID-320] - Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are not supported on the DM3730 SOM-LV on v1.0 release. --) [DM3730ANDROID-357] - When watching video online via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, videos get choppy and eventually audio gets choppy. --) [DM3730ANDROID-380] - The SmartReflex power management feature is on by default. Turning SmartReflex off may fail occasionally. --) [DM3730ANDROID-408] - Display in HDMI mode is not supported on v1.0 release. --) [DM3730ANDROID-418] - Cannot send a picture file from DM3730 SOM through Bluetooth. Can send contact data successfully through Bluetooth. --) [DM3730ANDROID-421] - GPS functionality is not supported on v1.0 release. --) [DM3730ANDROID-422] - Power-off button sometimes does not complete power cycle. --) [DM3730ANDROID-427] - Ethernet hot-plug capability is not supported in v1.0 release. --) [DM3730ANDROID-434] - AM3703-based SOMs are not supported on v1.0 release. --) [DM3730ANDROID-435] - Wi-Fi MAC address is not listed on Wi-Fi advanced settings section of graphic user interface. Wi-Fi MAC address can be retrieved through "netcfg" command. --) [DM3730ANDROID-436] - System cold start time is over 1 minute. 4) General Information ---------------------- --) The "DM3730 Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 BSP User Guide" (hereafter, User Guide)is available on Logic PD's website at: http://support.logicpd.com/downloads/1600/ --) Instructions for creating Android bootable demo SD cards are documented in the User Guide. The SD card capacity must be greater than 256 MB. --) When booting from an SD card, the system searches NAND for U-Boot environment configurations. If the NAND storage of the kit has stale U-Boot configurations saved by a different Linux or Android release, a U-Boot command "nand erase.chip" must be run to clear the stale U-Boot configurations on NAND. --) Android buttons (Back, Menu, and Home) and the power suspend/resume key are mapped to buttons on the Zoom DM3730 Development Kit baseboards; these mapped buttons are documented in the User Guide. --) This release supports use of the navigation bar (virtual buttons). --) A software simulation of an accelerometer is documented in the User Guide to demonstrate dynamic screen rotation capability. --) This release supports the DM3730 Development Kit being accessed in mass storage mode through USB OTG port. --) Power suspend/resume works in this release. To suspend, press the S2 button on the baseboard or wait until system time-out from idle state. --) The system is NOT configured to wake up from suspend mode by touching the LCD screen; press and hold the S2 button for more than one second to wake up a suspended system. --) Users can disable power management by checking the "Stay Awake" option under Settings (Applications > Development > Stay Awake). After the LCD dims and the system locks, it will no longer enter suspended mode. The only way to unlock the system in that dimmer state is to slide the unlock ring on the touch screen. --) Any application attempting to start while the Android device is still booting up or any other time the device is very busy may cause a "process system is not responding" notification window to pop up. This is expected behavior and can occur more often when using an SD card as the root filesystem. Choose "cancel" to give the system additional time for the application to start. Choose "force close" to abort starting the application. Once the system has completed booting or is no longer busy, the application can be started normally. 5) Build Image from Source Code ------------------------------- --) Users should follow the "Android Platform Development" section of the User Guide to download the Android source code and build the binary image. 6) History ------------- --) ICS4.0.4v1.0-04 ---- + Initial public release v1.0 of DM3730 Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 BSP. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 2013 Logic PD, Inc.
