Android :: Run On Virtual Machine For Development
Jul 15, 2010Currently I am using Android emulator for development, but it is very slow. I am looking for some android port that can run on real CPU.
For example I installed this product http://www.android-x86.org/documents/installhowto on VMware, and it seems to work much faster, but I have no idea how to setup network connection here.
The question is if some one is using alternative android setup for development, instead of emulator? If so, a link to configure instructions would be great.
Android :: C Development - Virtual Machine - Allowed
Apr 4, 2009I'm the lead developer of TotalCross, a virtual machine that's just like the one used in Android, and targetted for small devices. Currently, using TotalCross, you write programs completely cross- platform among Palm OS 5, BlackBerry, iPhone, Windows 32, Windows CE (2,3,4,5,6) and Java-enabled platforms.
We plan to port TotalCross to Android, but i'm concerned about the legal way. I'm aware that there may be hack C APIs for Android, but will these APIs allow the users to sell their applications in a legal fashion?
Btw, what is legal and what's not legal in Android? I could easily port our VM to Android if there were a standard C api on it. However, all i see is Java APIs. I could also port TotalCross to run over the Java API, but i'm concerned about speed. I believe our VM is faster than the one in Android (actually, it is a couple times faster than the BlackBerry VM).
Android : How Would You Improve Dalvik In Virtual Machine
Jun 21, 2009I am currently writing a paper on the Android platform. After some research, it's clear that Dalvik has room for improvement. I was wondering, what do you think would be the best use of a developer's time with this goal?
JIT compilation seems like the big one, but then i've also heard this would be of limited use on such a low resource machine. Does anyone have a resource or data that backs this up?
Are there any other options that should be considered? Aside from developing a robust native development kit to bypass the VM. For those who are interested, there is a lecture that has been recorded and put online regarding the Dalvik VM.
Any thoughts welcome, as this question appears subjective i'll clarify that the answer I'll accept must have some justification for proposed changes. Any data to back it up, such as the improvement in the Sun JVM when it was introduced, would be a massive plus.
Android :: Doing Coding In Linux Through A Virtual Machine On Windows VS Partitioning
Mar 29, 2010I already have experience with setting up virtual machines, running them and other minor tasks. Im a gamer, so I wont get rid of windows (for now at least...) but I do want to be a great programmer and to be involved with the Open-Source community Id like to know if its a good idea to do my programming in linux through a virtual machine, vs giving it a partitioned section of the HDD. Id like to know about performance pros and cons and functionality.The type of programming I intend to dive into : Android Dev, Web Dev, Desktop Dev...More Android and Web right now though. I do web designing as well, so dreamweaver is added as an "essential". But im sure I can do dreamweaver files and upload them to the server after programming in Linux...Right? And any info on IDE's in Linux for the above mentioned are appreciated, but i would prefer going the coding route and understanding the essence of whats happening "under the covers".

Aug 9, 2010I'm trying to develop a very specific app for my Dell Streak. I want the entire app to run landscape. The Streak has a tilt function that switches the whole OS to a landscape 800x480.
So I want to make an ADT to test in that uses an 800x480 display, but whenever I set the size I get no buttons. The Streak has a Home, Menu and Back button aswell as volume/mute and power, and I need to use some of them for my application.
I'm not worried about the tilting messing up my application. Not yet, anyway. Just need the test environment the right size and with buttons.

General :: File Access From Locked Down Win XP Machine
Sep 17, 2012The situation is this: at work the computers are heavily locked down. By that I mean that you can not download and install anything, no cd rom access and no usb access. they run win xp (some of you may be too young to have heard of this)
I have recently discovered, however, that when i plug my galaxy s3 in, the pc sees it as a digital camera, and i can access every folder on the internal sd card through windows explorer. i can then transfer any file i like to the computer This never happened on my g note, nexus s, or any other device.
Now, I can only confirm that the above works on xpower 2.5 ics custom rom. when I changed to hypergalaxy jb rom, there was no access to my phone via the pc.
how and why this works, and how i might use a hack to enable any usb device on such a locked down pc?

Jun 14, 2013I purchased a AOSON M60 fabbed at foxconn a couple of weeks back, it claims to be pre-Rooted. From Item Description: "The machine has obtained permanent ROOT privileges, a great convenience to the user management system software and remove unwanted software."
I have tested this with the Root checker app and it fails reporting that the device isn't rooted. I have checked this with Titanium Backup and it also reports it's not rooted.
When i have checked this with SuperOneClick v 3.2.2 it says:
Checking if rooted... CheckIfRooted 0.14s True
Checking for shell root... CheckIfShellRooted 0.15s False
The application then stopps at Shell rooting device...-Step #7 WaitForDevice (This never completes)
From my simple understanding, the shell rooting is a one shot thing per boot, and isn't required if the device reports back that rooted=true.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: HTC One X Style Virtual Menu Button Patch?
Oct 5, 2012I tried to re-implement what HTC did with the One X, One S, etc, where they have physical back, home, recent apps keys, and a virtual menu button pops up under apps that need a menu button. I don't have an Android device, so I was only able to test it under the emulator, I have only tested it with the Facebook app, but it seems to work fine.
The patch is against AOSP 4.1.1, to activate it in the emulator, set hw.mainKeys=yes and hw.menuButton=no in hardware.ini. For a real device, you'd need to set config_showNavigationBar to false and config_showLegacyMenuButton to true.
Because this is just a proof of concept, it pops up the entire ICS navigation bar with all four buttons instead of just the menu button. But that's not hard to fix.
Android :: Development Machine
Nov 24, 2010With the latest SDK release, and the ability to download separate platforms releases into the SDK, the hardware resources required to develop for Android have increased significantly. Assuming that the developer targets all currently available seven platforms - that could take your dev machine to its knees. Taken alone the 'Android SDK Content Loader' takes nearly two minutes on a dual-core machine with 2GB memory.
As the title suggest the reason for creating this wiki is for everyone to list their development hardware configurations, and thus determine what is a well-suited machine for Android development.
The secondary reason for the wiki is that I'm trying to get my employer to provide me with a decent machine for development as I'm currently forced to work on a nearly 4 year old randomly-built machine, and expected to deliver great results. However, the reality is that my system keeps running out of memory, and I can hardly get a chance to write a few lines of code in between the numerous crashes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Connecting Emulator In Another Machine
Aug 26, 2010I need to test my android app 24h day and I have 3 ubuntu boxes to do it. I would like to connect my development system (MOTODEV Studio 1.3) to a Remote Device.
Well, the interface ask me about ip for machine and port to connect to.
But it doesn't. I found that the adb sever on remote seems not to listen to external ports, only internal loopback, making connections machine-machine impossible.
Could it be true? If so, why there is a section on Device to connect to Android Remote Device on MOTODEV Studio?
I've found an explanation and a workaround in this post (http://rxwen.blogspot.com/2009/11/adb-for-remote-connections.html) but it seems complicated and post's links doesn't work, so I'm confused whether there is a solution to do that.
Android :: Sharing Machine For Development
Dec 10, 2009We have a fast and powerful machine(Ubuntu 64bit) and we are sharing it for Android development. But when running multiple eclipse (with ADT) instances (by multiple users), we are getting the following error:
Could not open Selected VM debug port (8700). Make you do not have another instance of DDMS or of the eclipse plugin running. If it is being used by something else, choose a new port number in the preferences.
And some of the process names are not shown. It shows a bug with red- circle and a question mark instead.
I tried to change the port number under windows-preferences-Android- DDMS-Base local debugger port to 8800, etc. but it does not seem to help. (closed and reopened eclipse)
I ignored this, selected the process and it shows 8607/8700 (I found the process ID I want to debug using adb shell, ps)
And then I tried debugging this. It throws "failed to connect to remote VM"
Is it just not possible for multiple developers to debug different Android applications using multiple eclipse instances at the same time? If it is possible, can somebody please tell how we can do that?
BTW, it did not allow me to launch emulator, while somebody else is running one. I had to change permission to /tmp/android folder.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAndroid : Access Dev Machine Localhost Via Usb
Mar 26, 2010My activity needs to communicate with a java server located on my dev machine. Actually, using the emulator, I can access the server socket via the special 10.0.2.2 address. Now I'd like to test my app on my phone connected via usb, but it seems like I can't use 10.0.2.2 to access my dev machine localhost anymore. Naturally using a wifi router and a proper lan addressing does the trick, but I need to use usb connection instead. Any hint ?
1. Emulator-based scenario: standard java server running on my pc @localhost:15000 android java client running on my emulator. When the android app needs to contact the server it uses 10.0.2.2:15000 like specified here. Everything works fine.
2. Proper wifi scenario with physical connected device: standard java server running on my pc @192.168.1.10:15000. android java client running on my device with 192.168.1.11 address assigned. When the android app needs to contact the server it uses 192.168.1.10:15000 and everything works fine too.
3. Desired scenario: standard java server running on my pc @localhost:15000. android java client running on my device connected via usb cable. No network is active. When the android app needs to contact the server it tries to connect to 10.0.2.2:15000 but instead an exception is thrown (Network unreachable). It seems like special address 10.0.2.2 works only for emulator instances. I just wonder if in the adb/adt suite there's a way to access pc address from the device connected via usb cable.
