Hello Fedevel Community, I need help regarding the IMX6 board. I am facing software issue in the IMX6 board. The card is used in the display and the display is not working properly.

🤖 In the meantime, here’s a response from the [FEDEVEL AI HW Assistant]().
It helps to find relevant resources for your question, but it may make mistakes as it’s still in early development.

This is the response from the AI Assistant:
Based on the Freescale i.MX6 board bring-up process shown in our tutorials, here are key steps to address software issues:

1. **Reprogramming Procedure** (from 9-steps video):
- Use Freescale Manufacturing Tool (MFG Tool) to load new software images
- Connect USB OTG port to host PC while holding boot mode pins
- Verify successful upload by monitoring current draw changes during programming ([09:00-10:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPeCKuz7tFs&t=605))

2. **Serial Console Verification**:
- Connect UART serial port (115200 baud) to check boot messages
- Look for Linux kernel initialization and display subsystem messages
- Missing display-related messages could indicate driver issues ([14:31-17:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPeCKuz7tFs&t=871))

3. **Critical Checks**:
- Verify all power rails (especially display-related voltages)
- Confirm crystal oscillators are running (32.768kHz and 24MHz)
- Check display interface connections (LVDS/HDMI timing parameters)

4. **Errata Considerations**:
- Review i.MX6 errata for known display controller issues
- Some revisions require software workarounds for display artifacts ([Tip 50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwz5PZ9xfU4&t=0))

The videos show complete board bring-up including successful Linux boot sequence.

If hardware is confirmed working, focus on:
- Reflashing verified working images
- Checking device tree display configuration
- Validating kernel framebuffer/driver initialization

Need more specific details about:
- Which display interface you're using (LVDS/HDMI/etc)
- Boot messages from serial console
- Software version/revision

This information is covered in our i.MX6 board bring-up tutorial series and debugging sessions.
