I'm working with a development board based on Freescale i.MX6 ARM Cortex A9 processors. You can have more info about the board on this link. The Android version I'm using is the one provided by the manufacturer which is based on Android 4.4.2 if I'm not wrong.
This will have an automotive application, which will be the Head Unit of a kind of car. At this moment, the board takes about 15-20 seconds to boot. As you know, this is unacceptable for a car infotainment system. I've developed several Android apps but this is the first time I'm playing with the internal system, and I need some help to achieve this.
My question would be, how can I make the system to boot in at least 6-8 seconds? I've tried adding this line to build.prop
:
ro.config.hw_quickpoweron=true
But it hasn't have any effect. I've seen few manufacturers have achieved to start the system in 4 seconds.
fastboot
tag is wrong here. you can boot your device into fastboot mode if you want to flash the recovery or the ROM, it has nothing to do with the QuickBoot setting. see my answer
