unable to load images onto imx8mm-evk

[john_dietz]

I am following instructions in Sect 3.3.1 of Android™ Quick Start Guide, Rev. P9.0.0_1.0.0-ga, 01/2019 and running

the following uuu in Windows10.  I am using the images from : android_p9.0.0_1.0.0-ga_image_8mmevk.tar.gz

On Windows Host side the console shows ...

uuu.exe c:\android_p9.0.0_1.0.0-ga_image_8mmevk\uuu-android-mx8mm-evk-emmc.lst

uuu (Universal Update Utility) for nxp imx chips -- libuuu_1.2.91-0-g3799f4d

When the first FB command in the lst file is executed (FB: ucmd setenv fastboot_dev mmc) the host uuu program just hangs.  It appears that the generic bulk io interface on the mx8mm-evk was not inited as the eval's usb iface on windows host side does not enumerate.

On mx8mm-evk side the debug console shows:

I have same result if I attempt to use Linux as host.  I also note that if I boot the eval into the u-boot in eMMC that the eval came with and enter:  "fastboot 1" that the usb iface on windows host side does not enumerate.

Hello John,

      since downloading android and linux images are the same result, I feel the issue should be caused by windows configurations, I have ever tested android 9.0 BSP (including fastboot) on windows 7 64bit and windows 10 64bit for several times. A the beginning, we need to do some necessary configrations for usb driver, like android ADB driver etc.

      I have written for it, recording the full operations for downloading images onto board. see the link, please!

https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-342719 

Hope it can help you!

Have a nice day!

Best Regards,

Thanks Wigros...I can load the board now.

Hello John:

   I have the same issue if I try to use Linux as host to download image. How did you solve it?

Hi Nick,

For me the real issue was not that my windows config was not setup properly but that I was not using the usb3 debug cable that came with the kit between PORT1 on the eval (DEBUG port) and my PC .... it went missing on me for a while and I so tried using two usb cables connected together which prevented the usb on the eval from working properly.  Once I relocated and used the single usb3 debug cable that came with the kit itself then I was able to follow the instructions in Sect 3.3.1 of Android™ Quick Start Guide, Rev. P9.0.0_1.0.0-ga, 01/2019 to get the eval loaded.
