How Do I Install Software Packages on HiLens Kit Devices?

Currently, there are four ways to install software on HiLens Kit devices:

Note: Before your run any command, run umask 022 first. If an installed package cannot be used after firmware is upgraded to 1.1.2 or later, uninstall the package, run umask 022, and install it again.

  • Using pip: Run python3 -m pip install to install pip. You can also use other pip sources, such as:

    python3 -m pip install requests -i http://pypi.douban.com/simple --trusted-host pypi.douban.com

  • Compiling source code: Download a compiler for AArch64 software.
  • Installing RPM packages: Download RPM packages and their dependencies from Huawei Images and use RPM and YUM to install the software packages.
