SK-AM62P-LP: How to set board serial number?

Part Number: SK-AM62P-LP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM62P

  • Hello Hariraj,

    Thank you for reporting this issue.

    Usually, the serial number is provisioned in an EEPROM. The bootloader (U-Boot) reads that out and then sets the serial# variable. This serial# is then converted into androidboot.serialno which ends up being the serial shown when running adb devices.

    Since U-Boot has no eeprom reading support for AM62P, the serial number is blank.

    As a work-around, you can set the serial number from the U-Boot shell and save it to the eMMC environment.
    For example, to configure AM62Pmyserial as serial number, run:

    => setenv serial# AM62Pmyserial
    => saveenv
    Saving Environment to MMC... Writing to MMC(0)... OK
    


    Then restart the board.

    We will see:

    $ adb devices
    List of devices attached
    AM62Pmyserial   device
