[Q] Create android disk for android emulator - Android Software Development

Hi,
I want to work on android internals, using the android emulator (qemu). Thus, I'm looking for a working set of sources files which can easily build a disk image for the android emulator (<i>just "make"</i>). Does anyone know where can I found one ?
Thanks,
Julien.

Android Emulator problems

hi guys,
I'm setting up an android environment on Ubuntu 10.
I have eclipse installed along with the Android plugin.
From synaptic manager, I installed openjdk-6-jdk.
All the components are inplace. However, the emulators start but seem to get into a perpectual loop and just display the android logo.
My hello world app or even the emulators user interface view never starts.
Is anyone familiar with this sort of problem? Please help me.

Wifi on Android SDK

Hi every one,
i have installed Android SDK 2.2 on my laptop in order to develop an application over it.Actually, my application needs wifi configuration but i can't access to this in the emulator neither in the WifiManager class (eclipse).
I think the problem is that i don't have an Android Device connected to my PC!
i really need to develop this application and i can't manage to have an Androphone....so aren't there any solutions? any suggestions ?
P.S: i'm a beginner in the Android Developpment.

Does the Android SDK Emulator provide access to underlying Linux OS?

Dear experts,
I was intending to develop an application that configures iptables suitable for use on an android phone using the android SDK.
(I know Droid already exists, but would like to develop such an app as a beginner project).
Does the SDK provide access to the underlying linux OS of the SDK or must the SDK be jailbroken?
regards,
Patrick

Yes -, you can get linux shell access in the Android SDK emulators. You can root the emulator with the SuperUser app.

Thanks jc,
I managed to get the emulator running using Android 2.3 and eclipse.
I see from various forums that the emulator is supposed to work as root by default.If
If I run the following command in the terminal:
./adb root
I get the following:
adbd is already running as root
However, when I try and run the following apps DroidWall and Wireless Thether it complains about root privileges.
Note, when I first run Wireless Tether it complains that netfilter is not installed. But when I run it the second time, it complains about the su permissions. Surely the Android SDK comes with the basic linux security features, such as iptables?
That link you sent me, does it work for the version of android i am running?
The app must also know how to access root privilages

[Q] problems with Maqicq (Light Control Software) on Ubuntu for HD2

Hi guys, thanks for all your efforts in bringing amazing new things to the HD2.
Having Ubuntu on my phone should empower me to control lighting equipment over my HD2, since there is a Lighting Control Software named Magicq ( www.magicq.co.uk ) which is also available for linux.
As a complete newbie to linux I managed to download it, I decompressed it and tried to run it using bash, navigated to the right directory using cd and tried to open it with ./magicq as written in the short manual.
Sadly it did not run, bash said: cannot execute binary file
i suspect that this binary is not able to run on an ARM.
any ideas, guys?
thx in advance,
seas

get your hands on the source (not sure if that is available) and compile it for arm, that would do the trick.
but you can expect a load of errors if this app was never designed to work on an arm, you would have to fix them yourself.

[Q] Does the root access allows me to use all Android SDK tools?

Hello there,
I'm developing applications for (i. e.) Acer A500 and need to use some of the Android SDK tools like hierachyviewer etc. which work on developer version of Android only (I need to use them on the real device, not emulator). I don't have any of that version and what's more don't know where to get it - so I thought about rooting my device - will it enable those tools on that device? Or do I have to install some mods?
Thanks in advance for the info.
It did work for me but I only tried a few adb and ddms commands.
That's great, can you confirm hierarchyviewer working? (Is it possible to load View Hierarchy for custom app?)
