=====Abstract=====

In this article we are going through the steps of installing (re-installing) the Android image (LiveSuit type) onto the Cubieboard. 
The Cubieboard comes with 4GB of internal storage memory (called NAND), where you can install an operating system like Android or GNU/Linux.

You need this guide if you want to upgrade the Android on your Cubieboard to the latest version.
You also need this guide if you want to re-install Android on the Cubieboard NAND memory, if you had replaced Android with a GNU/Linux distribution (in the NAND memory).

=====Prerequisites=====
