VIM4-Android-11-64bit-V231120 Rom Release

Announcements

Would you check up the software build guide?
I found that the “Building Android Source Code” link is redirected to VIM3 guide page which is not appropriate for VIM4.
And, at the actual vim4 build guide page, link for the " Install Toolchains for the Amlogic Platform" is broken.

@windchaser Thank you for raising the error in the document, which has been corrected.

Is there anywhere to see the development roadmap?
Thanks

7

The changelog says that root support was added.

@goenjoy can you please provide any document/instructions on how to root my VIM4?

8

Hey can you respond to my question above as well regarding root access?

9

The firmware itself is root. You can use this APK to verify. This is an app specifically used to check whether the machine is root.

I today installed firmware vim4-android-11-64bit-v230428
After the installation when the system reboots (I ejected SD card and removed other usb peripherals that may interefere) the systems gets frozen with khadas logo on the screen with no further progress.
Best Regards

We also have a black screen on bootup issue on two separate VIM4 boards we’ve tested so far. (No TS, just regular PC monitors.)

Thanks. The latest official build seems to work.

A small question here - in Vim3(s) on Android 9 - Android Open Accessory protocol seems to work… It even starts up Android Auto via Android HU emulator… (but fails later) But it seems is broken on Android 11… logs show that VIM4 supports AOAv2 ask VIM to switch to accessory mode but nothing actually happens…
Any chance to make it work back again ? (easy to reproduce via android auto emulator in Android Studio tools)

@OldNavi Can you create a new post? And describe the problem more clearly. And provide steps and methods for replication.
