Hello.
Is it any emulator/test tool available there you can test ROMS and other application on your computer before uploading them into the phone?
I don’t want to risk my phone to be unusable because of bad ROMS or applications..
Windows mobile SDK is a virtual PPC where you can install all your apps in order to test theim but I didn't succeeded in upgrading the ROM. If anybody has a solution...
The SDK emulator won't allow you to "flash" a rom, because that is device specific. You can test your apps in the emulator and see if they feet your need before installing them on your phone.
ok So I have eclispse installed and ADT installed all that good jazz. I can run an emulater from a stock android rom. I have my rom as opend as a project in eclipse and when I try to run it, it runs the stock emulator again.........Does anyone know how to run my project?
does this help?

OK, i'm hearing all the time about different ROM's being put on phones like cyanogenmod and many others. even some people dual booting. is it possible to dual boot with ubuntu and an android ROM? if you're wondering i have the HP touchsmart (has a touchscreen) would it be possible to boot into android. i've done alot of research but can't find anyone that has done it or has a guide. would it be possible to load it into my grub or are the files entirely different. i've seen people put ubuntu on phones why not android on my laptop. (oh and not the SDK...its too slow to be seriously used and then i'm still using it as more of a virtual machine than an OS)
google search Chromium OS , Beta build , lolz , looks like android
Chromium OS is not android in the slightest!
If you want to play with Android on your PC, there are two ways you can run it:
A) Install the emulator - this is pretty slow, but gives you a phone-in-a-box you can play with

B) Use Android x86 - a port of Android that runs on PCs
http://www.android-x86.org/
(Grab the generic iso from here: http://android-x86.moonman.dk/old/)
Now either burn that to a cd, and boot from that, create a bootable usb stick with http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ or install it in a VM like VirtualBox
Hello all.
I search in the forum but I don't find the answer. Maybe no solution or my English is definitively too poor !!!
I have a computer with Linux (Ubuntu 10.10). Every time I want to make a change on my HD2, I have to reboot and launch my Windows session. But I want to definitively ****ch to Ubuntu. So is a solution exist to flash under linux (directly, with wine or with virtual machine like virtualbox).
I want to be able to flash my HD2 to return to WM6.5 or to flash the CWM recovery etc...
Do you have some answers ?
Thanks for attention.
Bye
as of now, the only way to flash rom through linux is using CWM (perhaps you'd need windows for that too).
The reason behind this is that the CustomRUU is only made for windows and not for linux.
Ive had my own tries with virtualisation and qemu but to no avail, CustomRUU needs to establish a direct serial contact with the device which is not possible for any VM in linux as of my knowledge, so the best bet is to get cLK loader, it uses userspace linux for android on nand, so you can flash recovery, rom, boot, kernel using the sdk tools of linux since it supports fastboot. after installing cLK, your phone becomes pretty close to a native linux one with the only drawback being the rom needs some changes to work with cLK but the good news is anyone can do it easily, we only need to repack the supplied kernel in a .img to flash using fastboot.
Thanks for information. I will try cLK and SDK.
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?)
