Hikey android won't boot

I downloaded Android Pie and built it without any changes. At the time, android worked fine.
But, after compiling hikey kernel and built android again, and then boot problem happened.
No splash image and init process continuously failed because of surfaceflinger crash

I downloaded android pie using the command below.
repo init -u platform/manifest - Git at Google -b android-9.0.0_r3

Did you update the bootloaders from installer/hikey960 - device/linaro/hikey - Git at Google ?

Or just fastboot the main images?

hi, i have the same issue when build android-9.0.0_r3 , the root case is the GPU so is not match with GPU Driver. as next log

it seems huawei have made some customiztion to GPU kernel driver, then make GPU so in Android can not work.

i meet the same issue when build android-8.1.0_r15,
use the old android-hikey-linaro-4.4-4.4.119-d6eecf64049ed7e5ee87be9e7cfa309ddee1cc5e can fix this issue.
but android-9.0.0_r3 must use android-hikey-linaro-4.9

MALI: Sync with r9p0 kernel driver release

Sync with the r9p0 mali kernel driver from:
https://developer.arm.com/products/software/mali-drivers/bifrost-kernel

NOTE: This is not to be merged until the r9p0 mali binaries
and gralloc changes are lined up, as this update breaks
compatibility with the existing r4p0 binaries.

I am experiencing the exact same issue as you @JKL. Had been working with Android P for months, but now it doesn’t work any longer. My kernel is patched to support custom MIPI display and touchscreen, but apparently that is not causing the problems.

@doitright I have also flashed the bootloader. Doesn’t make a difference.

i fix this issue by restore ‘drivers/gpu/arm_gpu/’ to old version:
as next:

git checkout fffc3e7d1cc71eff65ee7fbca9a65e7d8fbcb0fb^ drivers/gpu/arm_gpu/
