BOOT PROCESS FOR ANDROID IMAGE

Boot Process

• Switch SW801 to OFF, OFF, ON, OFF (from 1-4 bit) to boot from the eMMC, as

shown in Figure 3. After the board images are loaded into the eMMC and the boot
switches are correctly configured, the system is ready to run.

• Note: The board is shipped with Android image programmed in the eMMC. If

you want to use Linux image, see the documentation provided in the EVK website
(

) on how to load the image. Power on the EVK

board by sliding power switch SW701 to ON.

• During the boot process, the Android logo will appear on the HDMI display.

Note that the HDMI output resolution is 1080P fixed—to change it, check the
documentation in the EVK website.

• The Android UI can be seen after the boot process is finished. You can start
