OPI Zero Plus2 (H5) Android source build

samael

Hello,

I've bought a zero+2 h5 board. Despite having successfully managed to compile a bootable Android ROM from source, I'm facing some major issues making the product unusable.


In particular:

- The system is very slow (every action on the UI can take 2-5 seconds to complete) and hangs at regular intervals, especially after boot. It does not look like a video driver issue (animations run smoothly)

- No WiFi nor Bluetooth (they don't even turn on in the settings menu)

- No USB ADB (mouse works)

Minor issue:

- No navigation bar (black bar on bottom with back, home, menu sofkeys)
- No status bar on top (partially resolved by editing android source files before build)


During source build no errors are thrown, lichee kernel build goes through successfully with no errors and no warnings


I'm using a pretty outdated guide (OrangePi Zero Plus2_H5 User Manual_v0.9.4) where the android build section refers to another (probably compatible) board
The source archive is h5_v1.1-008.tar.bz2

I've also tried atv51-h5-v1.0.tar obtaining the exactly same result


The distro used to compile is Ubuntu 14.04.6 LTS x64, having all of the requirements installed


My company has shown interest for the board especially because is the only board on the market meeting our projects requirements.


Please give me some feedback, at least to make the board usable with Android system

Thank you
