I use FactoryTool-v1.43e to flash the eMMC ported directly on the board.
Recommend using the images and flashing tools provided on Firefly website here

They are developing the images for the RK3328 CC. The website has the flashtools that you need too.
their android version for this sbc is just hot off the press (April18). and works really well.

Is the Android SDK kernel still the safest option, or is the mainline version a viable option yet?
