Hi. In your project description you mentioned two big things, getting a full AOSP/BSP build you can pull from your repo and build by yourself, and making the hardware schematic + PCB match the real prototype, that needs careful handling. The best way to do this is to pick a proven TV box SoC + DVB-T/T2 tuner combo, lock the BOM early, then do board bring-up with clear build steps, device tree/kernel/bootloader/HAL notes, and keep every patch in your repo so you can rebuild and flash anytime. I’ll also take care of workflow of board bring up and debug, factory ready firmware images, and working with Shenzhen suppliers or an ODM for parts and PCB run. If you’d like, I can outline the cleanest architecture for this so it scales smoothly without future rebuild. I keep comms simple and often, keep quality high, save you time, and help you get to selling faster. I can also support after delivery for fixes and next steps like DVB test. Let me know if you’d like me to break this down clearly.. Regards, Nick.

Dear Client, This project needs someone who understands that an Android TV/DTV box is both a hardware platform and a BSP product. If the chipset, tuner/demodulator, bootloader, kernel, device tree and board design are not aligned early, bring-up becomes slow and expensive. I can support the hardware architecture and board-development side, and coordinate the embedded bring-up flow. My focus would be: ✅ SoC / module selection for Android TV / DTV use ✅ hardware architecture review for HDMI, USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi/BT, IR, audio/video and DVB-T/T2 ✅ schematic and PCB design aligned with the actual prototype ✅ board bring-up planning with BSP/AOSP requirements in mind ✅ production-oriented design files and documentation for factory discussion For this project, I would first lock the hardware platform and sourcing path before deep board work, because that determines the BSP effort. One question: Do you already have a preferred Android SoC / DVB-T2 chipset, or should the first phase compare practical chipset/module options? If you message me, I can outline the cleanest hardware-to-BSP development flow. Best regards, Prat PCB Must Innovations

Best Android TV Box Hardware + AOSP Expert! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dear Client, The real challenge here is not only bringing up Android. It is aligning chipset choice, board design, BSP/AOSP preparation, and supplier reality so the final DTV box does not become stuck between software and manufacturing. With 11+ years of experience in embedded hardware and system-level electronics, I focus on projects where board architecture and implementation discipline matter from the beginning. ✅ Review the hardware direction around Android TV / DTV box requirements and board-level constraints ✅ Support the architecture with awareness of BSP/AOSP, bring-up, and hardware-software integration points ✅ Keep the design path practical for real sourcing and manufacturing decisions • Outcome: You get a more structured hardware/platform direction instead of disconnected software and board decisions. The key here is locking the board/platform strategy early before software effort grows around the wrong hardware assumptions. Quick question: is the chipset/platform already shortlisted, or is that still open? If aligned, share the target feature set and I’ll suggest the strongest starting point. Regards, Avi Gupta Quality is never an accident
