And that is the most that the board layout allows (the flash can be upgraded with the same board layout - not the ram).

You will note that the least amount of ram on the devices linked to is 1 Gbyte.
There is a build option which has 512 MB RAM in the first link:
i.MX6Solo 512MB nitrogen6s_config

According to Wikipedia, Voyage and KPW3 have 512MB RAM.
The difference is that these two devices have i.MX6 SoloLite rather than i.MX6 Solo, not sure if this is a big problem.

KT2, on the other hand, does have only 256 MB of RAM (again according to Wikipedia). But the guy who did the porting managed to make Android work on KT2. So I guess it is possible to modify the build configuration file (flash_header.s?) by specifying the details of RAM in the device.

I found this: http://www.radiumboards.com/i.MX_6So...uide_A0-02.pdf

Which is a device that has CPU and Memory that are quite similar to KT2 and has u-boot running. Maybe this can help?
