Sergey Black Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Hi, all I have a development kit board Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC HDK 8550/SM8550/sm8x50. As understand it's more smartphone. Do we have support from Armbian for this board ? If so, can you provide me some info how to install it on sm8550 ? Currently, sm8550 has only fastboot and some AOSP images (u-boot, boot etc) 0 Quote

Sergey Black Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 (edited) Yeah, I expected it. About the link - thanks, I saw this link. After I've found this link I decided to ask about some specific release for sm8550. Sad news but thanks Edited January 22 by Sergey Black 0 Quote

SW maintenance is never complete due to extreme complexity and constant (mainline Linux) changes. 4 hours ago, Sergey Black said: from Armbian Supporting another hardware is a question of tens of hundreds of thousands of USD, not something we could finance out of what we get from users that will later just make more support expenses - most of questions is impossible to answer without deep and time expensive dive-in. This is custom hardware Linux world where manufacturers have little interest, especially this manufacturer, that you run anything else then what they provide (locked down). Mainlining of this SoC is often done without any documentation, assistance or support of manufacturer and hw dealers. I hope those links will provide you some guidance. Can't help more then this. Or to tell how big is the difference between sm8250, which this is for, and sm8550. Usually not much. 0 Quote
Sergey Black Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 (edited) I'm fully appreciate your time and efforts to support. Personally, I couldn’t make the same like you guys. I mean spending additional time to support something. Fully understand. I've just a newbie in that works. I mean in installation Linux to a kind of smartphone device. Just trying to understand that possible and that not for this device. Kind of rump uping stage Thanks a lot and thanks for your time. Edited January 22 by Sergey Black 0 Quote
