Android Things - pico i.mx7 unable to connect

Question

I've just unpacked my new Pico Pro Maker Kit and started flashing procedure. After creating a product in AndroidThings platform and downloading the build I've started flashing procedure.

Command flash-all.sh failed on fastboot syntax, so I've build that manually and found that it was failing on part "set_active _a". I've skipped that and continued to flash device.

Now device is rebooted, I can see on the screen androidThings logo and version + info about network status ("not connected").

I'm unable to find this device in

fastboot devices

or

adb devices

so it looks like I have no way to connect into it.

Do you know a way of fixing that? Is there any way to force fastboot reboot on that device?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I had a related problem for IMX7 on initial install, I thought I'd pass along the Boundary feedback in case it helps. Tech support at Boundary devices recommended that I try the following:

Please try to add androidboot.dm_verity=disabled and androidboot.selinux=disabled options to bootargs.

I presume these would be options you'd set at the boot prompt ==> (from the serial connection) but I haven't had a chance to test, which I may get to next week. Interested in your feedback if this has any impact to your situation in the meantime.
