Android
image is built from the latest AOSP source code
Following the guide Home · Wiki · BayLibre / amlogic / Android TV / aosp / device / amlogic / yukawa · GitLab
Note that I have to change the lunch target to “yukawa-trunk_staging-userdebug” to build the image
The build and fastboot commands are successful, but the device can’t boot after reboot. It stucks at “Starting kernel…” and then screen turns black.

Are there continuous build that I know VIM3 is expected to work with the latest AOSP code?
Hello, you need to follow my document to burn fastboot
#Preface
As we all know, Google often uses dessert names to label Android versions, and this tradition has been going on for a decade, with each version increasing with the addition of a new letter in the alphabet. Hence, the latest Android 14, with the letter “U,” is now dubbed as Upside Down Cake.
Upside Down Cake is a type of cake baked in a skillet, where the ingredients (usually apple or pineapple slices) are placed on the bottom of the skillet. The batter is then poured on top and placed…

Hi, yes I am using the fastboot binary built from source:

fastboot: aliased to /usr/local/google/home/wgtdkp/sdb/main-aosp-2/out/host/linux-x86/bin/fastboot

FYI, I am a Google engineer who works on a new wireless technology (Thread ) added to Android 15. I am trying to use VIM3 as the reference board to demonstrate how device vendors can make their own products with the technology. But it looks like VIM3 support for Android is not working on AOSP head (e.g. the doc should be updated to use “yukawa-trunk_staging-userdebug”).
@xiong.zhang Is it possible for you to follow the instructions in Home · Wiki · BayLibre / amlogic / Android TV / aosp / device / amlogic / yukawa · GitLab to see if the guide still works?
You need to follow the instructions in the following document to burn. The latest v20240613 is verified OK. You can download this to verify

In your linked doc, it mentions
The latest version 20240613 still needs vbmeta.img.
But I can’t find this file from the downloaded 20240613 prebuilt. Where can’t I get this?
Secondly, there is a recent AOSP change https://cs.android.com/android/_/android/device/amlogic/yukawa/+/2318974a95c2c43d85fb7cbfbf7450a633c235b5 , do you think it can break your guide?
After downloading you need to unzip it as shown below
It is possible. We regularly verify this based on their latest version. The last time the verification was ok, it was the version I uploaded.

Hello, is the pyamlboot environment installed?

fastboot erase bootenv && fastboot oem format && fastboot reboot bootloader
Have you executed these two steps?

Yes I did the two steps
fastboot flash bootloader ${BOOTLOADER_NAME}
fastboot erase bootenv && fastboot oem format && fastboot reboot bootloader
By “unbuntun”, do you mean ubuntu? No, but I am running on a linux machine.
Among them this
BOOTLOADER_NAME=u-boot_kvim3_ab.bin
It is best to use Ubuntu system to burn

Unfortunately, it’s not feasible for me to get an ubuntu machine while I can’t understand why there is a difference between ubuntu and another linux variant…
This wiki doc uses noab images Khadas_VIM3 · Wiki · BayLibre / amlogic / Android TV / aosp / device / amlogic / yukawa · GitLab , is it outdated now? Should I expect noab images continue working?

I am able to flash and launch with the vim3-u-aosp-v240613.rar prebuilt images. My previous issue is resolved by replacing my fastboot and mke2fs to the one in the prebuilt package.
But I still can’t get it work with the AOSP image built from AOSP HEAD. The immediate issue is that there is no vbmeta.img in out/target/product/yukawa/.
vbmeta partition needs to add this when compiling
export TARGET_AVB_ENABLE=true
export TARGET_VIM3=true
export TARGET_AVB_ENABLE=true
export TARGET_USE_TABLET_LAUNCHER=true
source build/envsetup.sh && lunch yukawa-user/yukawa-userdebug
time make -j50 2>&1 | tee build_vim3_14_android.log
Your reference document is 5.4 kernel, the following document corresponds to the 6.1 kernel, and BayLibre provides me for referencehttps://baylibre.pages.baylibre.com/amlogic/atv/doc/android/android-build.html#fetching-the-code

Thanks! The command
export TARGET_AVB_ENABLE=true
works for the vbmeta.img missing issue.
After executing the flashing commands, my VIM3 board failed to boot Android…
I am using the AOSP HEAD, not the version in your link (Building Android — khadas-android-14 documentation ).
I have to use AOSP HEAD because our feature is added to Android after version U.
wgtdkp:
AOSP HEAD
Do you mean that the HEAD means the latest code? Or is it a mirror that is compiled
You tell me the meaning of this HEAD first
The following link is Baylibre. They are based on the latest code -based burning mirror image every dayhttps://public.amlogic.binaries.baylibre.com/ci/build/baylibre/

Sorry, to be clear, AOSP HEAD means init the repo with:
repo init -c -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b main
What version of Android code is this？I need to ask Baylibre about this
