Hello guys,

Now I'm building Android from source code for A20 Olinuxino Board. I'm following the guide of the official web page and downloaded source code from http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/users/tsvetan/ANDROID-4.2.2-SDK2.0-KERNEL-3.4/.

My building computer is
$ uname -a
Linux huazhi-1204 3.8.0-30-generic #44~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 23 18:32:41 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)

Here are the errors when I was building it.

I found a workaround at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/Xw34n7PQJsA.

Now, after flashing the packed image onto sd card via Livesuit. The Android system can't boot into the system. I can see the A20 logo, the Allwinner logo, then it stays black. I have flashed the official android SD card image from Olimex, it worked on my board.

The console output of my built image is here.

From the console message, I guess it has not finished loading the kernel because there are no android related output yet.

Can anyone help me through this? Or can Olimex provide uboot, kernel, and system.img separately to let me do trouble-shoot where the problem is. Thanks...

OK. I got it work by referring to

http://axonjakarta.wordpress.com/2014/02/14/olimex-a20-android-building-4/

You have to comment out the following two lines...

Just wondering why it's not mentioned in the building guide from Olimex.

#ifneq ($(filter wing%,$(TARGET_DEVICE)),)
include $(call all-makefiles-under,$(LOCAL_PATH))
#endif

Hi hankgong,

This was the reason I created my blog to help others as there was quite a few issues and missing files with the Olimex build file and information.

Glad you got it sorted.

I saw this in your message:

I just read about this the other day. It seems this happens if you make any changes to the official Android AOSP source. You got a work around but I'd be cautious that your changes won't have other effects down the line. Seemingly there are ways to get around some of these issues by locating your personal codes in a certain location during the build.

This book was pretty good to getting an understanding of how the system is put together.

http://www.amazon.com/Embedded-Android-Porting-Extending-Customizing/dp/1449308295/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397093606&sr=8-1&keywords=embedded+android

I got the electronic version as it was half the price of the printed book and shipping made it double the book cost.
