Have you hooked up the serial port so you can see the logged data? It is going to be difficult for anyone to help you without seeing what is happening in the boot log.

Secondly, have you hooked up a VGA monitor? The default Android image only supports VGA, you need to flash an alternate image to use the LCD. See the wiki here, under "Using an Operating System NAND Flash":

No VGA signal in my new board too :-[
In A13_config_600x800.fex_ok configuation is for LCD?
VGA changes?

Yes, defaultd is VGA but my LCD is ON (displaced screen) with sun5i_android_a13-evb800x600_VGA_EN_SD.img instaled via LiveSuit.
Whith sun5i_android_a13-evb_800x480_LCD_EN_SD.img LCD is OK.

UART is ok too.

Have you plugged in a sd card in the board with the operative system? Note that without it the board will behave just like a brick.

Yes, Linux on SD and android on NAND, the board only works with LCD, no VGA.
I'll try another monitor.


Update:
Working, in other monitor.

Thanks.
