Android .img on the upboard

Ahmed

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to flash Android on my upboard but I can't find the .img file to flash on the website.
Is Android isn't available on this board yet?

If it's already available can you provide me a link to this file?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

When will there be an Android image with i2c and GPIO fully functional?

Thank you

Aling

At this moment, we don't have specific time frame for I2C. For GPIOs, they are fully functional now.

Hi there,

I have the Android image installed but I get a "There was a problem parsing the package" error when trying to install any APK from File Manager. I have enabled install from unknown sources.

What am I doing wrong?

Mustafa

What is the status about Android support?
Where can I get the latest image?

Aling

You can download the image here https://up-community.org/downloads/android
But some I/O ports are not enabled, they are required to be paired with specific device, there are no general drivers for those I/O.

Mustafa

thanks.

that page says: "No releases were found"

Aling

I just checked the link is valid.https://up-community.org/downloads/android/android-android-6-0-beta1

Mustafa

Excuse me, but I can not see any download links. There is a note: "No files were found"

Are you able to download it now?

Aling

I guess I might know the problem. The link is still not available for the public, we will enable it.
Please come back to check tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Mustafa

OK, thanks. I will check again tomorrow
