best GApps package on Seco A62J quad 2GB RAM ?

invalid@example.com (alain PAUMIER) — Tue, 14 Jun 2022 13:55:48 +0000

dear all,
I got a SECO A62J QUAD 2GB RAM board.
I want to install GoogleApps with the best speed .
With a 1GB RAM Board, I could install only Pico package in order to avoid Memory leaks.
With a 2GB RAM board, what is the best package to install to have the quickest Google application run ?
Other point, I only need GoogleMaps, and Youtube, can I remove the others not used functions like TTS, GMail, ??

Using QT 5.7.1 with BSP 6.0 on Yocto

invalid@example.com (RBrue) — Thu, 20 Jun 2019 07:34:58 +0000

Hi, I'm facing the following problem: I need to use the SPI interface from the J8 connector and I've been told from the Seco support that only the BSP 6.0 can be used for such purpose so far, but using the BSP 6.0 I am forced to use the meta-qt5 layer at the version 5.5.1 which doesn't contain the QChart libraries, which are required in my project (I have to create charts, plots and gauges running on a fullscreen QT application). Has anyone any suggestion to give to me? I've tried to update...

issues on Linux Kernel compilation for SBC A62

Hi,

I have recently found issues in compiling the Kernel code branch downloaded from

Questions from udoo quad about LVDS setup on A62

invalid@example.com (rswamy) — Mon, 19 Mar 2018 19:21:41 +0000

[edited w/answers] Hi, Anyone successfully moved from udoo quad to this board using LVDS touch screen? Our company is moving from the UDOO Quad and we are evaluating the A62 quad due to its industrial build quality and long-term support. The UDOO has been awesome to work with, we just use the prebuilt udoobuntu2 images which are good enough for our purposes. However I am running into some blocks with beginner questions now moving to the A62:

We are using a 10" touch display that...

Using the UARTs

invalid@example.com (ddewaele) — Wed, 10 Jan 2018 05:56:39 +0000

On the UDOO Quad board, there was a way to add support for additional UARTs (by changing some board specific defines) :

Code:

UART3 /dev/ttymxc2 pin 47 (EIM_D25) pin 53 (EIM_D24) pin 51 (/sys/class/gpio/gpio56) pin 51 (/sys/class/gpio/gpio56)
UART5 /dev/ttymxc4 pin 48 (KEY_ROW1) pin 49 (KEY_COL1) pin 46 (/sys/class/gpio/gpio145) pin 46 (/sys/class/gpio/gpio145)

This resulted in additional tty devices becoming available (ttymxc2 / ttymxc4)

Code:

dmesg | grep tty

Trouble booting with hdmi

invalid@example.com (heinstein) — Tue, 30 May 2017 14:04:30 +0000

I think the LVDS is the default video output right? Can I change it to HDMI? I have a bootable thumb drive and sd card but I don't know what buttons to press to boot. I assume I can change something in the /boot/config.txt file to make it run HDMI but I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated, right now its just a paperweight.

from udoo quad to SA62

invalid@example.com (modjo) — Thu, 27 Apr 2017 07:11:38 +0000

I'm writing this because this is what i did (just to give my little experience).
I have an udoo quad and we bought a seco A62 to use the industrial version in my company. The first point when you move from udoo to Sa62 is that you can't use the same os image to boot to the card (you can't use udoobuntu directly). The reason is that the kernel and uboot is different ! When you buy this card, you have an access to a ftp (i don't know if we can give the information to access it here ? -->...

[SOLVED] Booting Linux from eMMC (A62 SBC-A62-J-QUAD)

invalid@example.com (MatteoZ) — Thu, 27 Apr 2017 06:28:33 +0000

I am new to iMX6 based boards. I have just began to use the A62 SBC-A62-J-QUAD since few days.
I am trying to follow the wiki described by Seco at the link: http://wikitech.seco.com/index.php/BSP_5.0_Flashing_eMMC to restore
This seems to be generic and applicable to wide a range of iMX6 boards.

Is it possible to get a specific URL where to download the files to use:

Micro SD card Write speed very slow

Hello,
on my SECO A62-J 2GB board, I find the operating system very slow on Android 6.0.1.
I installed Phone Doctor Plus application, it found the harddisk speed very slow : only 3 MB/s
I am running Android on a Class10 16GB microSD card.
Normally Class10 is about 20 to 40MB/s also writing no?

SECO A62 quad processor seem to stay under 792MHz

invalid@example.com (alain PAUMIER) — Tue, 17 Jan 2017 17:29:01 +0000

I got Android6 working onto the SECO A62 Board, starting from the Android6 imahe from A62 BSP download page.
it works well but very slowly. It seems the Quad processor do not run their full speed. I installed ''system monitor light'' to see the CPU activity, and the CPU graphs show a max of 792MHz.
I could change the Parameters-general-governor parameter from ''interactive'' to ''performance'' but it does not change the CPU activity to a speeder one. and I think I lose it at every reboot....
