U-boot cannot cover by using mfgtool

Hi community,

I'm working on i.MX6 Quad sabre-SD platform and build Android 6 as my image.

Here is the situation now.

On the first burning image, u-boot seems working well.

And I tried to change the u-boot environment via console and saveenv to change environment settings.

After that I tried to update image via mfgtool to cover the u-boot environment which I had changed before.

However it did not success, u-boot environment is still the same.

The strange thing is that mfgtool still show burning success to me.

Below is my ucl2.xml.

Hello,

I quite do not understand well your question.

However, If you change the u-boot environment settings, you will not need to rerun the MFGtool if you saved the environment. The Android image will start with the new environment variables. Hope this can solve your problem.

Best Regards,

Diego.

Hi Adrian,

First I tried to change u-boot environment from A to B.

Second I tried to change my u-boot environment back to A by using mfgtool to update whole image including system.img and boot.img etc.

But in the second step it cannot work.

Even I tried to update whole image via mfgtool, u-boot environment is still be B not be A.

How can I fix this situation?

Hello,

If you want to go to the default environment, you can try with the below u-boot command:

u-boot -> default env -a

u-boot -> saveenv

With this command will be restored to the default environment.

Hope this can solve your problem.

Best Regards,

Diego.
