Hi,
But I do not understand exactly for example if I can use a Nexus5x; the device is in the list of supported devices Steve McIntyre sent me. Milosz Wasilewski said I cannot use it with Lava due to the lack of possibility to force power cycle on them (via serial interface - USB).
our current use case doesn't require power cycling the device. It uses the same OS build and tests are executed in chroot environment. This is pretty specific setup for the use case (doesn't require changing kernel).
To be able to use it requires hw modification of the device?
yes, you need to be able to forcibly power cycle the device. With battery inside the phone this isn't possible, so you have to remove battery and replace it with power supply you can turn off.
What we want to have for the moment is a real device (ex, Nexus 5) on which to run Tradef with Lava.
What is your use case? Are you testing tradefed (ex CTS) changes and stick with the same Android build or do you test Android (kernel, libraries, etc) changes? If it's the former you might be lucky and use existing nexus5 support. If you want to test android using CTS, HW modification is necessary.

I have a question regarding real devices supported by Linaro Lava.
Besides these dev boards I found here : https://validation.linaro.org/static/ docs/v2/standard-armmp-ramdisk-bbb.html#standard-known-devices
Are any other real devices supported in Lava by default? (any commercial phone for example Nexus 5)?
There's a huge set of supported devices. If you don't already have LAVA installed, the easiest way to find the list is by looking at the set of device type configurations at
