i have installed Android without no problem, but i can't shutdown the system, only with the on/off switch. Where is the shutdown button in tiny6410?
[Android] Shutdown Button in tiny6410
There is no shutdown built into the hardware. Power off is the only option. I have this concern myself as I don't want to just power off but instead select a power off option so I have worked on an external solution for this. I have designed (but not yet tested this software wise - hardware wise it works great) a hardware ON/OFF solution using an LTC2954CTS8-1 which can be used to power ON and OFF the device. The PWR INT signal is fed to the GPIO pins. You hold in the button for a preset time (programmable by capacitor) and it then sends a power up signal to the power supply. The device then powers up and have to then hold an IO pin high to keep the supply active. When you press and hold the button for a longer time, say 5 seconds, it sends a PWR/INT signal to the CPU and you then need to detect this in the OS somewhere and use this to perform a shutdown and pull the KILL line LOW, this will then switch off the power supply. The GPIO part I have not yet worked out but it is on my list of things to do as I need this capability. It also works as a failsafe when the OS has crashed by holding the button in for about 15 seconds it will do power off without any KILL input control. Hope this helps.
