Android User Guide

This page summarizes common operations after X30 Android boots.

Terminal​

Use the debug UART or adb:

adb devices
adb shell

If adb devices reports more than one device and emulator, terminate adb.exe on Windows and start adb again.

MP3 and Video Playback​

Place media files on SD card, USB disk, or internal storage. Android Music and Gallery apps will detect playable files.

Wi-Fi​

X30 has an on-board Wi-Fi/BT module. Open Settings, enable Wi-Fi, select an AP, and enter the password.

Bluetooth Transfer and Speaker​

Open Bluetooth settings, search for a phone or Bluetooth speaker, and pair it. After pairing, files can be transferred or audio can be played through the speaker.

USB Mouse and Keyboard​

Connect a USB mouse, keyboard, or wireless receiver to a USB HOST port.

TF Card and USB Disk​

The system automatically mounts TF cards and USB disks under /storage. If the device is not detected, check filesystem format, power, and device nodes.

Screen Rotation​

The board has a G-sensor. Applications that support rotation will follow board orientation.

Camera​

Open the Camera application for preview, photo capture, or video recording. If there is no image, check camera power, I2C, MIPI, reset, driver, and device tree.

Ethernet​

ifconfig
ip addr
ping 8.8.8.8

IR Remote​

The X30 hardware supports an integrated IR receiver, so an IR remote can operate the Android UI.

Power, Suspend, and Wake-up​

After a 12V adapter is connected, the board powers on automatically. In Android, hold the power key for the power-off dialog. Press the power key briefly to enter suspend; press it again to wake up.
