Question Android Automotive 11 on raspberry pi 4

[Patric_phinehas]

Hi,
I have been recently working on ways to boot AA 11 in Raspi 4 (4 GB) via manual build. Having followed all steps till build, when creating partitions and flashing each individual image to the partition

1. SDX1 -> boot files (manual copy setting boot flag)
2. SDX2 -> linux partition -> system.img
3. SDX3 -> linux partition -> vendor.img

the raspberry boot to the gradient wheel and resets, need to know how do i debug the issue or make the individual files as a single .img file for flashing via pi-imager

Thanks in Advance,
Patric

The image booted okay for me. However, it flickers now and then (tried two different displays). And most of the features do no work (e.g. calling, clicking on a contact doesn't do anything; maps do not load even after Bluetooth internet tethering to my phone).

Are you experiencing the same?

For those with success with the snapp image, did you have to do anything special? I downloaded it, used the raspberry image writer to write it to a 64gb sdcard (only one I have on hand, it works with raspbian) and attempted to boot. It shows the rainbow screen but then a blank screen. Is there anything I need to do? I am using the 8gb version of the board.

I had the same issue at first. Changing the display worked for me (I was using a waveshare 4.3" display, changed to my computer monitor and it showed up).

Thank you - I was trying with the official 7" touch screen. I tried again with the micro HDMI but it also didn't work - but I will look further to display related settings and see if I can spot anything.

Hi i will point you to the easy way to do it .
1-create SD card the same way you have created the first one
but put in mind to use the smallest capacity sd card that can hold the three partitions
the smaller sd card you use will help you creating smaller.img

2- use software called Win32DiskImager to make img file of your sd card.

3- And walla you have one image file .

note : you may add auto resizing script to Expand File System after installation.
or just let user do it manually using raspi-config .

if my answer is helpful please use thanks button
and consider send me pm of created img for self use
