Using Method Introduction

Hardware Requirement

• Orange Pi RK3399 Development Board
• A PC for compilation with following specs:
  

64bit CPU
Up to 16GB RAM
UP to 40GB spare disk space
Operation system should up to Ubuntu12.04, it would be better if it is Ubuntu16.04 You could refer to Google file for more details: https://source.android.com/source/building

Software Requirement

• Orange Pi RK3399 SDK
• Orange Pi RK3399 Firmware
• Android-image-flash-tool

Power Supply Requirement

There are three methods for power supply:

• DC （12V 2A）in for power
• TypeC （5V 3A）in for power
• Battery （Dual Battery 7.4V）in for power, connect the battery with our BAT interface

If insert TypeC and DC connector in the same time, the system would default charge by DC in. It would not recommend to power by the battery, because different batteries need matching with BQ25700 battery management IC according to their respective parameters.

Android Compilation Environment Construction

Download SDK compression package

Take OrangePi-RK3399_Android6.0_V1.0_2017_0720.tgz as an example, after get the original compression package:

mkdir OrangePi-rk3399
tar xvf OrangePi-rk3399_Android6.0_V1.0_2017_0720.tgz -C OrangePi-rk3399
cd OrangePi-rk3399

Construct Compilation Environment

It could also refer to Google file: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

• Install JDK

Compilation of Android6.0 is based on JAVA7, it needs to first install OpenJDK before compilation.

Command for installing:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

Configure environment variable of JAVA, here is the path for installation:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

It could configure on the terminal with the following command:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
