Configuring Tizen devices for development

TV

  1. Make sure your host PC and TV are on the same network (connected to the same access point).

  2. Enable the developer mode. (The images below are from a Tizen 9.0 TV. They may look different on other TVs.)

    1. Go to Apps and click the App Settings icon.

      Apps

      App Settings

    2. Enter the number 12345 using the remote control or on-screen number pad.

      Enter 12345

    3. Set Developer mode to On, enter the IP address of the host PC, and press OK.

      Enter IP address

    4. Restart the TV. You will see Develop Mode enabled after the TV restarts.

      Develop mode enabled

  3. Find the path to sdb and add it to your PATH.

    • If you have installed Tizen Studio, add the tools directory to your PATH. For example, if Tizen Studio is installed in the default location on Linux or macOS:

      export PATH="$HOME/tizen-studio/tools:$PATH"

    • If you have installed the VS Code Extension for Tizen, the PATH is automatically configured, so you do not need to set it manually.

  4. Connect to the device using its IP address.

    $ sdb connect 192.168.0.101
connecting to 192.168.0.101:26101 ...
connected to 192.168.0.101:26101

$ sdb devices

Raspberry Pi

Install Tizen OS on Raspberry Pi 4

Note

Raspberry Pi 3 is not supported since Tizen 8.0. Raspberry Pi 5 (64bit-only) can be used for experimental.

You need a Linux PC (for flashing), a Raspberry Pi 4 board, and a micro SD card with a minimum capacity of 16 GB.

  1. Insert an SD card to your PC, and format the disk.

  2. Find the device name (such as /dev/sdc). You can list all available devices using the lsblk command:

    $ lsblk
NAME        MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda           8:0    0 465.8G  0 disk
└─sda1        8:1    0 465.8G  0 part
sdb           8:16   1 119.5G  0 disk
└─sdb1        8:17   1 119.5G  0 part /cdrom
sdc           8:32   1  29.3G  0 disk
└─sdc1        8:33   1  29.3G  0 part

  3. Download a fusing script (sd_fusing.py).

    $ git clone git://review.tizen.org/git/platform/kernel/tizen-fusing-scripts -b tizen
$ cd tizen-fusing-scripts/scripts

  4. Re-partition the SD card.

    $ sudo ./sd_fusing.py -d <SD card device name> -t <Target Board> --format

    For example:

    $ sudo ./sd_fusing.py -d /dev/sdc -t rpi4 --format

  5. Download a Tizen OS image. Visit the links below and download two .tar.gz files.

  6. Flash the image to the SD card.

    $ sudo ./sd_fusing.py -d <SD card device name> -b <Boot Image> <Platform Image> -t <Target Board>

    For example:

    $ sudo ./sd_fusing.py -d /dev/sdc -b tizen-9.0-unified_20241030.071206_tizen-boot-armv7l-rpi4.tar.gz tizen-9.0-unified_20241030.071206_tizen-headed-armv7l.tar.gz -t rpi4

  7. Done. Remove the SD card and insert to your Pi device.

Connect

  1. Connect the Raspberry Pi device to the same network as your host PC using an Ethernet cable.

    Alternatively, you can use some extra hardware (USB/PWR splitter) to connect Raspberry Pi directly to the host PC in OTG (USB slave) mode. The Tizen device will be ready to use just after plugging the USB - the next step should be skipped.

  2. Find the device IP address and connect to it. (sdb should be in your PATH.)

    $ sdb connect 192.168.0.101
connecting to 192.168.0.101:26101 ...
connected to 192.168.0.101:26101

  3. Download the Raspberry Pi plugin (WLAN driver) from Samsung Developers: Tizen Device Firmware and install it. Once the device is connected to Wi-Fi, you can connect to the device without an Ethernet cable.

Troubleshooting

  • Connection failure

    $ sdb connect 192.168.0.101
connecting to 192.168.0.101:26101 ...
failed to connect to 192.168.0.101:26101

    Make sure the target device and the host PC are on the same network. Make sure the host IP address is entered correctly in the developer mode settings (TV).

  • Device offline

    $ sdb devices
List of devices attached
0000d85900006200        offline         device-1

    If the device is connected to a Windows host via USB, make sure to install the Android USB Driver for Windows.

  • If you still have trouble connecting your device, open an issue in this repo or ask for help at Samsung Developers / Tizen Forums / Stack Overflow.
