Rockpi4/rockpi-android9


ROCK Pi 4 > Android9


Recommend build host is Ubuntu 16.04 64bit, for other hosts, refer official Android documents Establishing a Build Environment.

Repo

   radxa$ wget 'https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo' -P /tmp/
   radxa$ sudo cp /tmp/repo /usr/local/bin/repo
   radxa$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/repo

In China Download Repo:

   radxa$ echo "export REPO_URL='https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/git/git-repo/'" >> ~/.bashrc
   radxa$ source ~/.bashrc
   radxa$ curl https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/git/git-repo -o /tmp/repo
   radxa$ sudo cp /tmp/repo /usr/local/bin/repo
   radxa$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/repo

Init Environment

Android's source code primarily consists of Java, C++, and XML files.
To compile the source code, you'll need to install OpenJDK 8, GNU C and C++ compilers, XML parsing libraries, ImageMagick, and several other related packages.

   radxa$ apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y openjdk-8-jdk python python-pip git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
          zip curl liblz4-tool zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 \
          lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev ccache \
          libgl1-mesa-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc unzip mtools u-boot-tools \
          htop iotop sysstat iftop pigz bc device-tree-compiler lunzip \
          dosfstools vim-common parted udev lzop rsync
   radxa$ pip install pycrypto

Configure the JAVA environment

   radxa$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
   radxa$ export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
   radxa$ export CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar

DockerFile

   FROM ubuntu:xenial
   RUN apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y openjdk-8-jdk python python-pip git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
       zip curl liblz4-tool zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 \
       lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev ccache \

       dosfstools vim-common parted udev lzop rsync
   RUN pip install pycrypto
   RUN curl https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/git/git-repo > /usr/local/bin/repo && \
       chmod +x /usr/local/bin/repo
   RUN which repo
   ENV REPO_URL='https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/git/git-repo/' USER=android9-docker
   ARG USER_ID=0
   ARG GROUP_ID=0
   RUN groupadd -g ${GROUP_ID} jenkins-docker && useradd -m -g jenkins-docker -u ${USER_ID} android9-docker
   USER android9-docker

Build DockerFile

   radxa$ docker build -t android-builder:9.x --build-arg USER_ID=`id -u` --build-arg GROUP_ID=`id -g` $(which-dir-dockerfile-in)

Download source code

   radxa$ mkdir rockpi4-android9
   radxa$ cd rockpi4-android9

Then run:

   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ repo init -u https://github.com/radxa/manifests.git -b rockpi-box-9.0 -m rockpi-release.xml
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ repo sync -d --no-tags -j4

It might take quite a bit of time to fetch the entire AOSP source code(around 86G)!

Build u-boot

   radxa:rockpi4-android9       $ cd u-boot
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/u-boot$ ./make.sh rk3399
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/u-boot$ cd ..

The generated images are **rk3399_loader_v_xxx.bin** , **idbloader.img** and **uboot.img**

Building kernel

For HDMI 4K

   radxa:rockpi4-android9       $cd kernel
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/kernel$ make rockchip_defconfig
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/kernel$ make rk3399-rockpi-4b.img -j$(nproc)
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/kernel$ cd ..

The generated images are **kernel.img** and **resource.img**:

  1. kernel.img, kernel with rkcrc checksum
  2. resource.img, contains dtb and boot logo, Rockchip format resource package

Building AOSP

Android TV:

   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ source build/envsetup.sh
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ lunch rk3399_box-userdebug
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ make -j$(nproc)

Android Tablet:

   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ source build/envsetup.sh
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ lunch rk3399-userdebug
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ make -j$(nproc)

It takes a long time, take a break and wait...

Generate images

   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ ln -s RKTools/linux/Linux_Pack_Firmware/rockdev/ rockdev
   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ ./mkimage.sh

The generated images under rockdev/Image-* are

   ├── boot.img
   ├── dtbo.img
   ├── idbloader.img
   ├── kernel.img
   ├── misc.img
   ├── oem.img
   ├── parameter.txt

Generated Image

Android TV

   radxa:rockpi4-android9        $ cd rockdev
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/rockdev$ ln -s Image-rk3399_box Image

Android Tablet

   radxa:rockpi4-android9        $ cd rockdev
   radxa:rockpi4-android9/rockdev$ ln -s Image-rk3399 Image

1. RkUpdate Image

   radxa:rockpi4-android9/rockdev$ ./mkupdate.sh

The images under rockdev/ are `update.img`

2. GPT Image
If you start a new terminal, the android environment is not configured, you need:

   radxa:rockpi4-android9$ source build/envsetup.sh && setpaths

gen apt image:

   radxa:rockpi4-android9/rockdev$ ./android-gpt.sh
