Android ICS on pandaboard randomly crashes
--> I am testing in the following software and hardware environment:
OS Kernel : Linux® 3.0
Android : Android IcecreamSandwich 4.0.4(MR1.1)
Toolchain : CodeSourcery compiler version Sourcery G++ Lite 2010q1-202 for ARM GNU/Linux
Reference hardware platforms : PANDA BOARD REV A2
Build Host OS : Ubuntu 11.10
Android ICS Release : 4AI.1.4 OMAP4 Icecream Sandwich Panda
SD Card : Sandisk 4 GB
-->
To build the source i had follwed all the steps given on
http://omappedia.org/wiki/4AI.1.4_OMAP4_Icecream_Sandwich_Panda_Notes
--> I had build and loaded everything on the board but having issue of android crashes at random time after complate boot.
-->
Even i had checked using prebuilt binaries given at
"https://gforge.ti.com/gf/download/user/9174/5962/omap4_sd_files_panda.tar.gz"
, my board is booting Android ICS successfully but having same issue of
crash
--> I have tried to boot
1.from SD card by flashing SD card using fastboot
2.from NFS and tftp
--> In both the case my device is booting successfully but i could not use it more than 5 minuts maximum.
-->
After successful boot however i launch any appication some times it
open and work as it should and sometime after clicking on the
application board crashes , after this i can't have control to android
prompt and it does not give me any log for what reasone it crashed.
--> If i do not use any application then it works fine and i can use board prompt any time.
Below are the examples of the random crashes that i have faced.
Successful
boot --> Open lock of the device --> Open Menu --> Setting
>>>> then it crash and some time it works properly
Successful
boot --> Open lock of the device --> Open Menu --> Gallery
>>>> then it crash and some time it works properly
Please find attached log in which board booted successfully and then crashed by clicking on Gallery Application....
