Title: Android Roms for Olinuxino
Post by: Modulo on April 30, 2013, 08:33:33 PM
Hello all!!! Trying to gather all user based roms for Olinuxino A13 in one spot. I know many of you have created user based roms to help aid in your projects and thought they should be posted on one common thread. Many Thanks and long live Olinuxino!!!

Android on the A13 wifi is stored in NAND as a drive.it is then loaded into memory and run
so you should ask about the images they have generated to upload to NAthe su
Most don't change the android, may change the linux portion if a bug fix for the GPIO.
Apps (*.apk) are installed seperatley and can be download as the app.

Are there any besides the factory Olimex one?

Almost everyone seems to be using Linux or a few just sticking with Android as shipped.

Dimitar Gamishev (hehopmajieh) has an actual Android App that can be used as a templete.
https://github.com/hehopmajieh/modio_android
So you can take the IO code from
https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/tree/master/SOFTWARE/A13
and make your own Android apps

thre is a thread Booting Android from SD Card

When he asked for "roms" I figured he meant.... well, ROMs.

So, the NAND in the WiFi.

Hi BJFreeman,
Quick question- any info on accessing the GPIO's via Android? Is there, as they say, an App for that?

Where I'm still getting hung up is the topic of customizing the kernel to make peripheral changes, such as enabling SPI.  Clearly people have done it, and there are vague references to downloading the 2GB A13 SDK and recompiling, but I haven't found any sort of walkthroughs for this.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I'm 50% of the way through the SDK download and will look through it once it's done, but hopefully there are tutorials around that I have somehow missed...
