OmniROM 12.1 v0.2 (ARM32/Android GO) for Orange Pi Zero 2W / Zero 3

This is an android go and arm32 variant for my earlier port of OmniROM 12.1 for Orange Pi Zero 2W /  Zero 3.

I recommend using this version on lower RAM variants with 1GB.

Not recommended on 2GB/4GB variant since it's enough RAM to run full android and ARM64 build has better app support and performance.


Since there were some reports of 1GB variants taking 1 hour or more to boot, I am releasing this Android GO  build.

Changelog:

  • It contains some optimizations for lower RAM devices such as how much memory is allocated for dalvik vm, split screen disabled, and many more.
  • "Webview Tester" is replaced with "Firefox Focus".

Unzip the file before using in Phoenix card.

It should be flashed to sd card using Phoenix card. Same as the OEM image instructions.

    1. I found that idle ram usage on this 32 bit version is 1.1GB and 64 bit version had 1.3 GB. That's probably the reason why it won't work on 1GB version.

      I will make a android TV version and see if a go 32bit version of it goes below 1GB idle usage then it should boot on your device.

      No timeline for that but i'll post here when ready.

      Thanks for trying out both builds on your device. I am using 4GB model so didn't see this issue and rely on online reports to fix.

    2. Thank you for your support. I think that most users use the 1gb version mainly for basic tasks, in my case, the touch remote control for the home. The only thing missing is the basic feature of the 'back' and 'home' buttons at the bottom of the screen. Unfortunately, the manufacturer's version android 12 tv does not have the ability to customize this function, although overall it works very quickly)

    3. Not sure if tv system ui will provide buttons on bottom but i'll check that.

OmniROM 12.1 v2 (ARM64) for Orange Pi Zero 2W / Zero 3

This is an update for my earlier port of OmniROM 12.1 for Orange Pi Zero 2W /  Zero 3 . This build is ARM64. It can run both 32 and 64 bit apks. The sources are available at this  blog . There are some graphics libraries that don't have 64 bit versions. I have used the available 32 bit versions of them but the eventual goal will be to replace the proprietary  libraries  with open source GPU drivers like mesa3d panfrost .   Unzip the file before using in Phoenix card. It should be flashed to sd card using Phoenix card. Same as the OEM image instructions .

This is OmniROM 12.1 TV variant for O range Pi Zero 2W /  Zero 3. TWRP is included. You should install TV gapps on it to get google TV launcher etc. Without that it has a very basic launcher and not very usable. Source code: blog Included TWRP has lots of bugs, especially the UI. But it works well enough to be able to install gapps etc. Download TV gapps: GitHub   reboot to recovery mode.
