Panda board REV A3 with ICS

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: WL1271

We have a Panda board REV A3. Ported ICS 4.0.3.0.2.0.1.0.

Comes up fine. But Bluetooth option is missing in settings. May be an issues with the build.

However Just have a doubt if Panda REV A3 supports BT connectivity.

 

  • Yes the PandaBoard Rev A3 should have hardware support for bluetooth.

    I would recommend directing your question on ICS & Pandaboard at 2 community emails lists : pandaboard@googlegoups.com AND android-building@googlegroups.com

  • Hi Ramesh,

    I am finding difficult to get ICS  ported onto Panda board REV A3 (OMAP4430) from android source. I was only  successful with pre-built images on panda. I appreciate if you can reply with source  links  and special instructions to be followed.

    Thanks,

    Anand

  • Not in town as of now Anand. WIl check and reply by tuesday.

  • Hi Ramesh,

    Made some progress mean while, but still having issues.

    shell@android:/ $
    shell@android:/ $ [ 1246.796936] PVR_K:(Error): BridgedDispatchKM: Initialisation failed.  Driver unusable. [4811, drivers/gpu/pvr/bridged_pvr_bridge.c]

    ICS on PANDA-OMAP4430

    Observations:

    1. It boots up  as shell prompt not #panda prompt.

    2. No out on  display  ( blank)

    I appreciate your suggestions.

    Thanks,

    Anand




  • I got the same problem as you.  Android not booting up.  Same error messages.

    What did you do to get it to boot, and get the "shell@android:/$" prompt?

    Thanks,

    John

  • John,

    1. Try this link for built -in images and verify the board is working.

    => https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/aosp-panda/

    2.  Follow this link to build both RFS ( ver 4.0.3)  and Kernel (ver 3.0.8)

    => http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html

    3. Replace "uImage" with new image in the boot partition.

    Hope it works.

    Thanks,

    Anand

  • Anand,

    Thanks.  I'll try that.

    John

  • Anand, Hope your issues are solved. We were able to bring up BT on Panda with ICS

  • Ramesh,

    I still have same issues with the display.  No output when I build and use my own kernel. Prebuilt images works well though.

    I appreciate if you can send me the link for the ".config" file or "WORKING_PANDA_DEFCONFIG" for OMAP4430 or OMAP4460.

    Thanks, Anand

     

  • Refer the following link and read through last few posts by VH & gad.krumh. If you follow these steps it should work

    https://groups.google.com/group/pandaboard/browse_thread/thread/c72cb0121144c15f/46fa0667e7d8fb42

    I suggest to post further questions on the above group instead of here, you can get more help.
