Building and Installing Android AOSP

In these notes, I will document few things:

1) Building newest AOSP for the HiKey SBC
2) Installing new image in Android Studio Emulator
3) Installing Android Pie preview of Android "Tiamen" (a Siberian fish, the picture is shown below) on Pixel 2 XL.

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
