Thank you very much.

There is not support or plans for support Andrioid 10 and 11 on the imx6, sorry for the problems that this might cause you. You can find the supported devices on the next link:

Hi Vinothkumar,

Thanks for your reply. Yes I think so, but I suppose it will need some configuration outside the documentation from NXP. I will try to test it to see if it can run flawlessly. My biggest concern is that I wanted to see if the WiFi driver for 88W8997 and the device itself work.

Best regards,

Hi rahmanuh,

As our EVK does not match the minimum support hardware target of the latest release we decide to not continue updating to the newer versions, of course, someone could build a custom board that matches these hardware specifications but we do not support it from our side.
