    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!

    mvly,

    I will look into that. Are you booting from an SD card or NAND?

    I am booting from SD. It turns out the GPS hardware was on. Since the 4.0.4 build does not have GPS built in, I suspect it was looking in a memory spot it should not hence causing the system to reboot.

     

    I disable the GPS and it doesn't crash anymore.

     

    However, any idea on how to set the apps default VM to 32MB instead of 16MB in ICS? I think it is changed to 32MB in Jelly Bean. Currently I am working from the source code available on the git server.
