Raspberry Pi II has come! This is a boon for those who want to study Android. The official configuration is as follows:
- 900MHz Quad Core ARM Cortex-a7 processor (Broadcom BCM2836)
- 1G LPDDR2 SDRAM (Micron)
- Two full-size USB ports (available for power supply)
- One MicroUSB interface
- A full-size HDMI interface
- 3.5 mm Audio Interface
- RJ45 Ethernet Cable Interface
I used Raspberry Pi I to run the days of Android, although running slowly, is always a solution. Let's summarize the process now. 1 First have to have a raspberry pi and then download Android2.3 the image is here:Https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2qw32upVDnkT0JXNkoyY1hSOUUIf you are interested in other operating systems such as Debin, or are interested in multimedia centers, Debin-based operating systems Raspybin in this:http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_latest;The download list also has Xbmc,ubantu and so on.
2 Format the SD card. This is the official recommended way for beginners, in fact, there is a simple way. is to use the Linux DD command directly to the Os raspybin into the SD card, the downside is that no matter how big your card is, its partitioning depends on the operating system, which wastes some space. The command is as follows: DD if=raspybin bs=1kb count=4000 of=/dev/sdxx here xx is your SD card, don't make a mistake! Otherwise lose hard drive data at your own risk. I purchased a 8G SD card, after installing the raspybin image of Pi, insert the SD card slot, connect the mouse, keyboard and HDMI to power up.
The first time on the power is very slow, very slow, stay on the Android logo for about 3 minutes to see the familiar Android system.
second-generation Raspberry Pi compared to a generation, the performance greatly improved, the official said:
- CPU single thread rate is 1.5 times times higher (up by 1.5x)
- Sunspider 4 times times faster (4x faster)
- NEON-based multi-core video decoding rate increased 20 times times (20x faster)
- Sysbench Overall multithreaded CPU score 6 times times older (6x)
as an NGO project, Raspberry Pi has brought the gospel to education in poor areas. Also for our love to toss the people to provide a great space for imagination.
