hi,

i am working on dm6467EVM and my vision is "to port android kernel on to the board and then able to encode & decode the audio, video streams"

For that 1)i ported android kernel 2.6.35 on the tms320dm6467 and the board is up through nfs mout root file sysem
     2)i installed my development host system with android sdk and generated .apk file for playing an audio & vedio application

The both audio & video applications are working fine on emulator(2.6.27 kernel)but when i connected my board and after installation my .apk file through adb (or) through eclipse i am getting following errors from eclipse before to launch my activity

    Failed to upload mediaplayer.apk on device '192.168.1.130:5555'
     java.io.IOException: Unable to upload file: timeout
     Launch canceled! 

so, please can any one solve my problem or can suggest a way to develope my project.... and is the work done by me till now is syncing with my project or iam going in wrong way.... will be a great help for me

Thanks
Vijay

  • Vijay,

    As a starting debug step, could you try to install one of the sample applications that comes with the Android SDK and see if that works?

    The idea is to check if you have a setup issue or the problem is related to your apk.

  • hi,

    First of all i have to appreciate your quick response and second i am very much sorry for my delay since i was busy on other work any way as per your suggestion i had tried to run the "Apidemo.apk & RotateView.apk " which were already located as demo applicaions in android sdk on my DM6467... even for that also i need to upload these mentioned .apk files on to the board.... i dont know how to make this .apk files run on the board.... so please help me

    i had one more question i had connected hdtv to the component output of DVSDK(dm6467) so when i boot the board trough android i have to see the same output on tv as it appears on the emulator.. so for this what i have to include for my android kernel i.e any sought of drivers like that... and if TI provides any android source code.. please provide that link... expecting the response soon..

    Thanks & regards
    Vijay

  • Vijay,

    You need to use adb from the command line or from Eclipse IDE.

    adb install <path_to_apk>

    There is plenty of information in Android's site that describe this process. Please check

    http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html for command line usage and

    http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/eclipse-adt.html for Eclipse usage

  • hi all,

    i have to build an android kernel image for DM6467EVM and my motive is to encode & decode video streams and to display videos on HDTV via both composite & component for that  i had downloaded android source code and in source code i can find only  in arch/arm/configs/davinci_all_defconfig. so can any one please post me the link or the source code that supports for dm6467 to build the android kernel on DVM .

     

    Thanks & Regards

  • Vijay,

    At present we don't support Android for DM6467. Our release is mainly for OMAP35x, AM37x and AM35x devices.

    Please use Android porting or linux davinci forums to get kernel related support for the same

    Sorry about that.

    Regards,
