Hi Everyone,

Do I port Android build for RPI 3 to RPI 4?

I would love that.

What Android build are you talking about?

Hi Everyone,

Good luck. It looks like it's not going to be too easy either.

I don't have better idea on this. But I would like to learn.

I have tried all RPI 2, RPI 3 android and chromium OS on RPI 4.

I think, at kernel level, 4k support drivers and other drivers are a mismatch with RPI 2/3.

From where do I get all device drivers of RPI 4, so I can try to cook my own android from source.

Yes, It is not so easy, I went through your site, but there is no menu in dropdown for RPI4, and you uploaded the RPI4 lineage OS for RPI4

Try this:

Try this:

https://github.com/RaspberryPiFan/device_brcm_rpi4
https://github.com/RaspberryPiFan/local_manifests

Why don't you try it yourself first? If you manage to build and boot it, then share an image for others to try if you feel like it.

Just because you've renamed rpi3->rpi4 in various places, doesn't mean it will have any chance of working on the actual device. I like your enthusiasm, but IMO you should be open about the status of your project before advertising it for others to try. Syncing the source code and building Android is a tedious process and when you know it's not even going to build because of errors...

I'm really interested in trying this. Have you gotten it to work yet? I've only compiled one OS from source before so I'm not that knowledgeable, but I'd be more than happy to learn more if this project would work.

No, there is no need to make those modifications. I would even advise against that.

Good start! We wait for the end result!
