I decided to check the updates for VIM3L :), since the beginning of 2020 there have been no updates on Android TV (terrible support VIM3L :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:), is it possible to make an image for an ordinary android (this image)?
Thanks!

As far as I know, superceleron makes the only ATV ROMs for the VIMs. He does so on a voluntary basis. From what I hear he has been very busy with his paid job, of course, that takes priority for us all.
More recent versions of Android Pie exist.

A user has successfully built Android 11, they said it produced an ATV, maybe that will be of interest to you.

incredible (if this is not a joke)! :slight_smile: this is great news! But I don’t understand where can I download the image? Maybe @hyphop also adapts this firmware for installation (when it appears)?
Thanks for hope @RDFTKV (it`s realy positive news)! :slight_smile:

LOL I do not think it is a joke based on numbqq’s statement.
For now the firmware would need to be built from source by the user, as evidently androider has done.
Many independent developers and the Khadas team work to improve the VIMs, so yes, always hopeful and with good reason. VIM3 and VIM3L are now both officially recognized as official Android reference boards, that is a pretty big deal going forward.

Working version VIM3L.Android.TV.v2.0-20200120.SC.emmc.kresq (I have it installed now), when version number 3 appears I can test it and write it better than previous ones or not (now you can definitely delete the version VIM3L.Android.TV_FINAL-v1.0-20191023.SC.emmc.kresq - outdated badly buggy version).

please check the sound search (this is the main thing in android TV) in all versions on Vim3l - voice search do not work and default keyboard do not work when you press ENTER (@superceleron claims that everything should work in all versions).

@hyphop perhaps somehow once install the TWRP and install the image as on a smartphone with root rights (is it very easy and wouldn’t have to bother you every time with a request to update the image?)? is it possible on vim3l?
P.S. New version android Pie for Vim3L (Builds v4 20201124 this is VIM3L.Android.Pie_V201113.emmc.kresq or not? Number in the title indicates that - no, but by the date of addition/create image it looks like the fourth version).

sorry im not anrdoid user - i just check and support basic installation process - all issue submit for android developers

P.S. New version android Pie for Vim3L (Builds v4 20201124 1 this is VIM3L.Android.Pie_V201113.emmc.kresq or not? Number in the title indicates that - no, but by the date of addition/create image it looks like the fourth version).

i just convert this our last image https://dl.khadas.com/Firmware/VIM3L/Android/VIM3L_Pie_V201113.7z

definitely delete the version VIM3L.Android.TV_FINAL-v1.0-20191023.SC.emmc.kresq - outdated badly buggy version).

OK removed
