Hi
I ported Android 4.2.2 to a custom board with i.MX53.
I have taken android source code from i.mx6 android_jb4.2.2_1.1.0-ga_source , and compiled for imx53 smd. and modified the kernel as well as android for my custom board and booted, it is successfully booted and i have ported the peripherals like , camera ,codec, usb , wifi,bt etc .., all r working fine. But coming to the gpu i am facing issue . From android UI if i am trying to open any shortcut apps icon , its opening fine , but if i am entering into Apps menu ,and from there i am trying to open any apps,icon is flickering/disappearing and then opens up , Plz check the attached video FYR. and plz advise me what could be the reason and how to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Rajput.

Hai igor,
Thanks for replying.
I verified the link as u suggested above.
as i mentioned above my launcher Apps are crashing, and i have fixed crashing problem by disabling android:hardwareAccelerated="false" in Launcher2 AndroidManifest.xml file , But now i am facing different problem , UI performance is very poor. please advise me how to improve whole UI performance .

Hi Rajput.
I am afraid Android 4.2.2 for i.MX53 is not available.
Also porting Android for other processor is too big job for
any kind of forum activity. Suggest to work on that with local FAE.
