I've read: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...[url] But both discussions seem a little outdated. At Google IO there were free HTC Magic phones (unlocked as ADP1?). So, basing on all this, I wonder if there's something official about ADP2.

I see the following in the official description of the ADP2:
Modify and rebuild the Android operating system, and flash it onto a phone.
I'm not able to find anywhere a downloadable 2.0 or 2.0.1 for the ADP2, nor any indication that it could be done. To the contrary I see all kind of discussions suggesting it's either not possible, or at least not YET possible.
May someone please explain a developer withOUT any Android specific background, what is so difficult in uplading a new version of an O/S to a device that's specifically desgined for such purpose?
Do I really need to wait for HTC?
Does anybody know when the 2.2 update will come out for the ADP2 phone?
I recently purchased the phone only to have it come out with a version that's 3 generations old.
I want to buy the ADP2 (HTC Magic) but I wonder if also Android 2.1 is available for it. Because I've heard that eclair doesn't run on HTC Magic as you can get it in the stores.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCan the adp2 that I just bought through the Android Market be flashed with Android 2.0? I can't find anything anywhere. The HTC developer support only has system images for the adp1 and adp2 phones up to 1.6. If it can't I will be sending the phone back for a full refund.

I have not seen Google mentions of it yet..
I am trying to access the sdcard on ADP2 from command prompt using adb tool and from window explorer, it says "Access is denied". I have followed the below procedure:
1) Installed the USB driver from Android site. 2) Connected the phone 3) Opened the "USB Connected" option from the notification bar of the phone, clicked "Mount". Also USB Debugging is enabled. 4) I am able to get the device name using "adb devices" command, also I am able to install APK file
But, when I tried to push APK or any text file to the sdcard, it is failing. This is the command I tried: "adb push Hello.apk /sdcard", it gives an error "Permission denied".
Also I tried accessing the sdcard from window explorer, it gives an error "Access is denied".
Also tried formating the sdcard, this sdcard works in the laptop and other non-Android phones, also did phone reset.
I'm trying to develop some middle layer application based on the source tree from android.git.kernel.org. I'm using the libmedia.so to link my code and has no problem. I also tried to link my code using the other libmedia.so which I pulled from HTC ADP2 (I ordered last week) and found that my code have many undefined references to some functions (or method).
This make me think that source code I gitted from android.git.kernel.org (two weeks ago) does not sync which the code in the HTC ADP2 Android device.
How do I sync my source tree with the HTC ADP2 ?
Is there any official site that discusses any updates to whether or not the Ion will be able to upgraded to Android 2.0? Or is there any concrete news among users here?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI think, Android needs a game framework. Something like SDL or more, XNA from Microsoft. Of course, we can use Canvas to draw, but it is slow. We can use OpenGL, but after two days of learning I still do not know how to draw f** background. Of course, I will do that. Some day :) But state and flags-ful OGL interface is really hard to understand if you go from wonderful world of objective thinking. I just want to focus on creating art, not wondering how to create tools for that.
I'm worrying, really worring about Android and games. M$ has XNA, porting it to Zune with Tegra. After that, XNA will come to WinMo. If you ever used C# and XNA, you know, how simple and great it is. What does it mean ? Thousands of games for Microsoft Mobile Junk and still no great games for Android. Worst. Many Android developers will go to WinMo for XNA. Many games will be easily ported from Xbox Arcade too. And we will be wasting time, wondering, how to get 25fps from Canvas or OpenGL. Without sound. Now, I think, is the time to do something with that. Android really needs something like XNA, to allow us producing games without all that technic stuff like OpenGL, game loops with managing threads, times, buffers, right pixel format settings and others. What you think about official game framework for Android?
Its been released. Its free and you can get it on the the market. Its decent. But I would much rather prefer a port of the iphone version. The biggest letdown was no implementation of chat.
View 5 Replies View RelatedEven a "beta" SDK would be helpful. There are lots of app developers who don't necessarily know how to build cupcake from the GIT. Given that HTC Magic (based on cupcake, I heard) is rolling out real soon now, wouldn't it be nice to give the app developers a chance to test if their app is compatible with cupcake?Sure, Android API is supposed to be backwards compatible. However, there are quite a few bugs in the G1 that I had to work around with ugly hacks. Now I start to worry if those hacks would break on cupcake.

there is an article in android document(Dev Guide/Publishing/Signing Your Applications/Signing Strategies)
"Application modularity - The Android system allows applications that are signed by the same certificate to run in the same process, if the applications so requests, so that the system treats them as a single application. In this way you can deploy your application in modules, and users can update each of the modules independently if needed."
in this article, what does "module" mean? is it an apk or something else? and if module is apk, how to install & update an apk by main apk without user operation?
We had this little group... http://groups.google.com/group/android-challenge Android Challenge: Discuss the Android Developer Challenge, including questions on contest details. You can also seek other developers to join a team effort. A humble request to ADC2 team to officially start and moderate a new ADC2 group similar to the previous android-challenge group. ADC2 messages are scattered in android-developers and android-discuss groups. ADC2 discussions does not fit in either of these groups. There will be hundreds of queries, comments, news and PR pitches once the ADC2 judging app goes live. So please could you start a ADC2 discussion group at the earliest.
