The Embedded Android Developer's BoF

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

Community hub covers ASPDevs.org Discord plus a newsletter, blogs and a GitHub-backed reference library that accepts pull requests. Practical issues: Android Automotive suffers VHAL vs vehicle signal mismatches and no native push notifications so use unified push / Kovisa or run your own server. Hardware: NXP and TI give the best BSP maintenance, Qualcomm RB5 support exists but verify CTS/VTS compliance. Running Android alongside Linux hits container and SELinux gaps with Waydroid limitations for newer Android versions.
