Hi !
Based on this : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Xanadux
What d u think, is it possible to have Android on our Himalaya device??
For those who doesnt know Android: http://code.google.com/android/index.html
As i do understand from the existing infos (google forums and the wiki above) if somebody smart enough may run NOW the Android on hima...
Am i right, am i wrong or am i just dreaming??
whoa!!! 10 million dollars?! that's fantastic!
I am waiting the good news from the master of HIMA
The official facts say:
Will ANDROID run on (insert phone here)? No.
Having said that, the OS is based on open source linux and the programs on java. The hima can already handle java apps, so that is one step in the right direction.
As for the os, linux on a hima might be a bit different (yes I am aware of the above mentioned hima linux os). It really all depends if they tailor the code to upcoming phones and backwards compatible or just for upcoming phones.
There facts section suggests the latter.
SymbianOS ?
Hi folks,
and what about SymbianOS ? I read an official statement from 2001 that Symbian and Intel concluded a cooperation agreement about the port of Symbian OS to StrongARM/XScale ...
The statement (german) :

does it only run java progs ?
judging from the speed diff between .net and java apps on wm
compared to native progs
that would be pretty slow
Hi developers!
My question is where can i download windows mobile 6 build system (i don't know, in wince it is platform builder and visual studio) for building images for custom hardware platform. I know that it is not open for free, but i've red that a lot of developers downloaded it. It is my dream to install windows mobile 6 on my hardware platform, so help me please how can! Thanks
there was a trial version of it somewhere in MS site but you have to search for it, if you are good in writing drivers for your hardware platform you may hav the luck to run WM6 on it, but i doubt it because the people who do this have teams for writing and testing drivers, it is large amount of work
(This thread is cross-posted to the Q&A forum)
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to build the XDA utils tree and itsutils.dll from source in order to play around with it a bit, but have had no luck so far. I've searched through all the forums, but couldn't find anything about building the toolset, only how to develop for actual mobile devices.
I got the source tree for the xda utils project, but the instructions on how to build them (here) are not very clear. What software do I need to have installed? Which libraries? Do I need to install an embedded version of the STL? Where can I find the "preview editions" of Platform Builder 3.0 and 4.0 in order to get the header files?
I'm running Windows XP 32-bit (I also have a 64-bit machine, though I doubt that'll make it any easier), and have installed VS 2005, the Windows Mobile 6 SDK, and eMbedded VC 4.0.
I'd really appreciate any advice or help.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
Hi
I'm starting to programm android's app , I'm attending a course and in this course the professor recomment us to install the JDK version 6 . On the oracle's site I have seen that there is JDK version 7.
I have read that there are incompatibilities between Android platform and JDK 7, is still true ?
Thanks to all
EDIT :
I'm back , because I've problem with the emulator..
I downloaded the ADT BUNDLE for 64bit, I unzipped the file and a Try to use it . At the beginning I had no problems, but when I try to use the emulator the first problems appeared : the emulator is too slow .. :/
My notebook has :
intel core i5
4gb ram
hard disk 5400rpm :/
window 8
What can I do for speed up the emulator ? I read of HAXM on intel forum, can it resolve my problem ?
thanks

You need to install JDK 6 for Android app development ..
You can download the JDK here : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html

The bottle neck is the ram ? 4gb ram is not enough for the emulator 64bit on window 8 ?

4Gbytes will do ok, but there will be times when you'll have to economize on the simultaneous running applications.
The emulator is what it is. Some of the system images are buggy, worse than others. I have 4.1.2 images that perform reasonably well, with OpenGL ES 2.
HAXM is a way of running the x86 system images in Windows (there's another means of doing that within Linux). This is sometimes significant because not all application development is able to target x86 builds of Android. If you're sticking to Java, though, it should be no problem, and yes, the x86 images are much faster.
You don't have enough RAM for genymotion and development - though with a tight squeeze that might work. Genymotion uses Virtual Box to run Android inside a VM. It's an x86 build - may be SLIGHTLY better than the x86 emulator images, but I've not had a problem with the emulator generally.
All that said, you really need to consider a device. There's nothing quite like debugging on a real device. Used Kindle Fire first generation makes a good purchase (it will be used). The hardware is fairly standard - not impressive. However, it's 2.3.3 Android is great for low end target testing (as in, compatible with early devices). Further, there are custom ROM builds for the device (and it's not locked), so you can install Android 4.4 on it - test as if it were a brand new device with the latest OS.
Many would likely frown at a Kindle, but frankly it's a good overall device for debugging at the likely price point you'll find. You'll need to purchase a USB cable for it, but otherwise its a good solution.
Yes I have a galaxy nexus and with it I haven't any problems , but the virtual emulator is also slow to start ... boh !
maybe is 4.4 image fault !
A Galaxy Nexus should be nice dev phone. I'm using devices for practically all my development, and only use the emulator for testing compatibilty with other OS versions. Not only is working with a device quick, but it also allows you to judge what your app 'feels' like on an actual device, which is something that tends to be overlooked easily in the whole emulator/device debate.
Wouldn't you need a multitude of devices to test on? Isn't there a possibility that what might work on Galaxy Note 3 for example may not work for all devices.
Check out Jar of Beans on the forums here
I built a performanced enhanced version of the Jar of Beans application (which is an improved Android emulator) that completely loads the Android virtual machine and associated binary files into a dedicated RAM disk on my Windows 7 64Bit dev machine running 4GB of RAM and Core Duo Quadcore.
All I can say is that performance is out of this world! Will wooop the arse off any phone I know of lol
Anyway, just a suggestion...try it out. If you are any good with AutoIT code I can share you my sources for additional performance boosting you r Android avd
I use genymotion as a device emulator. I highly recommend it. Very easy to setup and works great with Eclipse IDE.

Since you have a newer Intel chip it should come with HAXM support. After setting up HAXM you need download the x86 emulator images. Creating an AVD with an x86 image and HAXM setup properly should make the emulator run faster than an actual phone. Just search the android developer pages on how to set it up based on your dev enviroment. There are drivers that can be installed through the SDK manager in the extra section if you're using windows.

+1, the intel HAXM is better than the default ARM-7 emulator, but the Genymotion is the fastest one I've tried.
Genemotion > Intel HaxM > Arm-7
I was getting a lot of stuttering and frame drops using the HAXM, but with Genemotion, completely smooth and fast on my i5 with 6GB. There's plug-ins for use with Android Studio.
Genymotion is the best emulator, work perfectly

we all know that the emulator is very laggy,thats why i use blue stacks for testing apps !
Emu help
man you can use Bluestacks app player .. its so fast and secondly if you have an android phone you can use usb debugging !
The only thing is that if you want to check your apps on different devices you have to have the standard provided emulator !!
Use genymotion only.
I have never seen people using Android emulator now days.It is very slow.
Instead go for Genymotion as it is virtual box based solution and works very fast.Sometime faster than device
I have been using it on my windows machine , some times it crashes when high resolution device image is created. But I guess it is not very frequent.So save your time using Genymotion.
Thanks,
The original emulator is painfully slow, try using BlueStacks.
I need help or some one can point me to the right direction.
One of my employee give me Nokia lumia 1520 window 8.1 he ask me If I can put Androids app to this phone. I never root this type of phone before ( only Samsung phone). Can some one tell me what I need to download or send me a link what steps I need to do in order to root and install android apps on this phone if is possible.
thanks in advance.
No dude. You cant install Android on Windows Phone. You need to buy Android Phones for that. In earlier versions of Wp10 it was possible but not now

Something close is possible, You can install Appx File.... It's the Universal Apps : there might be some that have be converted from android to Windows phone.. Just google Appx Downloads and see if you can find something he wanted. If so, that is what is possible. The previous : A Older version of Windows on the phone had a special file/command, whatever you wish to call it. """Bash""". It allowed Linux to run on windows. Sadly they removed this, it would give programmers to do things Microsoft did not want to happen.

I think what you meant was sideloading apk using adb in W10 build 10149 . The Exploit which allowed more or less sandboxing of Android app. It Ran the basic Android Apps which didnt have much dependency on Google Play services and more in use by Project Astoria.That means if an android app that required the GMaps plug-in would crash in W10M. Well that's basically not possible now as they removed the Linux Subsytem. You cant install Android Apps now on Windows 10 (btw Nowadays which dev is spending time on Lumia devices? ) I dont think there would be more development of Windows 10 mobile in future as they have shown that Full blown Windows 10 would soon run on ARM devices which has SD835 or more( Just think SD835+6GB RAM+LQS)That would be amazing. But Microsoft Doesnt have the Required no. of Apps in store (Admitting, UWP was not a great success) and enough market share. But dev's like @feherneoh and @banmeifyouwant have done great thing in porting Android to SG Lumias. :cyclops:
feherneoh said:
SD835 might be a great SoC, but we'll have to wait and see. But that will give us x86 Windows apps, not Android
Yeah, there is the 52X port, but note that we have no connectivity at all....

Atleast if the perfomence if fine on SD835 soc , I Mean more than 2.5Ghz and enough page memory, I Think running or emulating Android apps would be smooth.Moreover if its full fledged Win10 the bootloader stuff Etc. would be easier to unlock and build Android for that. Yeah as you said we have to wait and see.
Yeah, Connectivity is major barrier on L52X Android Ports. If you guys could solve that, L52X Android port would the topic of debate and hopefully open the doors for future development. Good luck with connectivity though. Anyway you guys have done a great work on dead Lumias
