0 Replies and 1432 Views Any plans for android beyond 4.0.4 for the DM3730 SOM Torpedo?  1432  0 Started by  mvly Is there any plans to update android beyond 4.0.4 I notice from TI's site that they have NOT updated their AM37x android build for a while now from Android 4.0.3. I have also searched online on people who have tried porting to other version of android.   Is there instructions on how to start the port if there is no plans for update There are performance issues with ICS and I would like to move to 4.1.2, 4.2.2 or 4.3 if possible.   Thanks

2 Replies and 1456 Views Android 4.0.4 crashes and reboots using with app  1456  2 Started by  mvly The Logic zoom eval board is resetting when I am using the OS stock with the OsmAnd application when loading the mapping image. There is a brief message around not enough RAM to load the image and then soon after it reboots. I think it might have to do with the 16MB vs 32MB virtual memory allocation per app restriction on the OS. Since I am using the 512MB version of the DM3730, is there a way I can rebuild the OS with the 32MB VM for each app   Thanks!

3 Replies and 1647 Views Android high power consumption during sleep.  1647  3 Started by  mvly I am wondering why android uses much more power during sleep compared to Linux on the DM3730. I am using Wattson to measure the current and during sleep, the Linux can hit 1-2mA current draw for the SOM. But for Android 2.3.4, it is around 15-16mA.   My design requires the absolute lowest power consumption. Is there a way to drop it comparable to the Linux boot

4 Replies and 2152 Views Missing libusb-dev to build X-Loader  2152  4 Started by  Deleted User Dear all, To build the X-Loader, the package 'libusb-dev' should be installed in the host computer, as it is pointed in https://groups.google.com/forum/!msg/x-loader/aEXYx0qyZSo/SeqZXP5KWCEJ. However, the document titled 'DM37x Linux BSP User Guide' Rev. E, in section 2.3.12 'Install packages' doesn't indicate that the package 'libusb-dev' should be installed. I don't download the LogicPD virtual machine, so I don't know if the package is already installed in the virtual machine or not. Th...

7 Replies and 2189 Views boot from sd??  2189  7 Started by  Seth Berardinelli I'm sort of new to this embedded linux environment. I understand how to set up linux via fdisk and mkfs, using grub or syslinux. How does one set up an SD Card to boot the kernel from the SD Card and mounting multiple partitions A step-by-step would be nice. I'm interested in using the SD Card like a normal hard disk and uboot/logicloader as though I were using grub/syslinux (if I am even equating the properly). The labs seem to generate a ramdisk for the SD Card, and I am not interested in tha...
