I got Romkitchen running on W2K/IIS
i did the following:
* Install Cygwin with Base-Tools and Perl
* Install php-4.3.2-Win32
* create virtual directory pointing to Romkitchen files
* make sure, that bin-directories of cygwin and php are in your system path
changes in Romkitchen:
Windows does not support the concept of symbolic links so change it to just copy the files
* processor.php line 480:
@symlink(...);
chage to:
@copy(...);
* Directory "80_How would you like..." must not end with a "?"
* because i have no command line "zip" installed i changed the content
of "outfile" to names without ".zip" at the end
(in RomKitchen\data\80_How would you like your ROM_\20_zipped NK.nb1 (SD-card flashing)\_\cfg)
That's it! (and it works! )

Nice. I might try it. Last time i tried to install cygwin, i couldn't get it to work. can u give me little more details on how u isntalled it?
thanks
alex
I did nothing special to install cygwin.
I installed via ftp, selected all of the base installation and made sure that perl (5.8..) is marked for installation.
the only thing i did is that i added c:\cygwin\bin to my system path variable.
when runnin mkrom i didn't do that from cmd.exe but lauched "bash" before that.
try to start ./mkrom.sh from a bash-shell.
sorry, i don't remember if i did anything else important, but if you encounter some problems, let me know.

There are many ways to develop for Android and because of all the options it is sometimes a little daunting getting your environment setup. I found myself bouncing from web page to web page, not really sure if I had the right tools and if they were setup correctly. I wanted to document the process that worked for me.
Goal: Step by step instructions to install and configure your Android development environment for Windows.
Environment/tools: Here is the setup I have chosen to use.
* Windows (I'm using Windows 7, but any flavor of windows will do)
* Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (v3.5 Galileo)
* Java Platform (JDK 6 Update 18 )
* Android SDK Tools, Revision 4
Step 1. Install Eclipse IDE
I chose to use the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (v3.5 Galileo). You can download the it here
* Download "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (92 MB)"
* This is a zip file and does not require installation. Just copy the eclipse folder into your programs directory
* Download the installation file from Sun
* Select your platform
* Now run the JDK installation. I did not change any of the default installation options. When complete continue to step 3.
Step 3: Install the Android SDK Tools, Revision 4
* Download the install package "android-sdk_r04-windows.zip"
* This does not require installation. Just unzip and copy the files. You can install the package anywhere but remember where you put as you will need to reference it in Eclipse. I happen to install it inside my eclipse folder.
Step 4: Configure Android SDK
* Launch "SDK-Setup.exe" located in the Android SDK install folder"
* If you receive the following "Failed to Fetch Error" we need to change the link to not use SSL. Close the error dialog.
* Press "Cancel" on the "Choose Packages to Install" Dialog
* Select "Settings" in the left pane
* Check "Force h t t p s://.. sources to be fetched using over h t t p://"
* Press "Save and Apply"
* Select "Available Packages" in the left pane
* Select "Documentation" (at the top of the list)
* Select "Usb Driver Package, rev 3 (at the bottom of the list)
* And then select any platform you want to develop. You can select all (be prepared for a long download) or you can select only the platfrom for you phone. The Nexus One uses 2.1 and the Droid for Verizon uses 2.0.1.
* Check "Accept All" and Press "Install Accepted"
* When done press "Close"
* Now we are going to create a virtual device (AVD)
* Select "Virtual Devices" in the left pane
* Select "New..."
* Create the following new Android Virtual Device
o Name: Android2.1
o Target: Android 2.1 API Level 7 (Or which ever API you installed)
o SD card Size: 4000 MiB to 32000MiB (16000 MiB shown)
o Leave the rest at the default settings
* Press "Create AVD". Be patient it may take a few minutes to create your new AVD.
* Close the SDK setup.
Step 5: Configure Eclipse
(These instructions are for Galileo version of Eclipse. Please see this page for instructions if you downloaded the Ganymede version of Eclipse)
* Launch Eclipse for the first time. You will be asked where you want to your workspace folder to be located.
o I used the default location.
o Check "Use this as the default and do not ask again" so you don't have to answer this question every time.
o Press "OK".
* Select "Help > Install New Software..."
* Press "Add..."
* Fill out the Add Site information
o Name: Android
o Location: (URL blocked)
o Press "OK"
If you get an error don't use SSL. change location from "(URL blocked)" to "(URL blocked)"
* After a connection is made and available tools are retrieved expand "Developer Tools" and select "Android DDMS" and "Android Development Tools"
* Press "Next"
* Press "Next" again.
* Check "I accept the terms of the license agreements"
* You may receive a Security Warning about unsigned content. Press "OK"
* Done. Now you should restart Eclipse.
* After rebooting we need to tell Eclipse where we copied the "Android SDK" in step 3.
* Select "Windows > Preferences"
* Select "Android" from the left pane.
* For the SDK Location, browse to where you installed the SDK.
* Press "OK"
* A dialog box will appear. If you want to send usage data to Google leave it checked, other uncheck it and press "Continue".
* Close Eclipse
You are now ready to build your first application.
I have this entire tutorial (with screen captures) and others on my blog AndroidCodeMonkey.
What do you mean by this?
" Just copy the eclipse folder into your programs directory
* Download the installation file from Sun
* Select your platform
I am a "noob" but I want to learn and do things right the first time so I can put time into quality work and not time into trying to figure out how to work the system, etc... Can you be a tad more specific please? Thank you

By this I mean you open the zip file and copy the contents of the zip file into your programs directory. If you visit my blog you will see some screen captures that might help you.

I ran across this link to a penetration testing tool (well, actually a debian 'chroot') called DebDroid:
http://www.pentestit.com/2011/02/18/debdroid-run-network-sniffing-debian-system-android/
The text on the site reads:
Debroid helps you run a Debian system with a lot of utilities that help you sniff packets. In addition to various other tools and libraries, it contains tools such as:
* openssh
* libpcap
* libpcap-dev
* ettercap
* wireshark
* carwhisperer
* btscan
* NMAP
* ntbscan
These come pre-installed with the Debian image. To install, simply download the image from the links provided and follow these steps:
1. Unzip the .zip and .7z files and copy all the contents to /sdcard/debian/
2. Run your preferred terminal emulator and run bash with su.
3. Install debroid with – sh ./sdcard/debian/debian.sh
4. Boot into debian with the following command – debroid and voila!
Hello,
Just found this post, and i want to try it on my Galaxy Tab,
but the links are dead on the site postet in the first thread
The links are ending in such useless sedo parking trash site
Has anyone the two files needed ?
- debdroid_release-2-11-11.zip
and
- debian.7z

I have a question about replacing system files (system accelerators) on-the-fly, the idea is to make a bat script which uses adb to do the following thing:
If Adrenaline shot is installed and want to change to thunderbolt:
First using the stop command so the phone freezes
then removing adrenaline shot:
- Replace with stock one:
* system/bin/app_process and system_server
* system/lib/libsqlite.so and libsqlite_jni.so
- Remove:
* system/etc/init.d/(all)
* system/etc/sysctl.conf
Then push thunderbolt:
* sdcard/bolt-scripts/(all)
* system/etc/init.d/(all)
* system/lib/libncurses.so
* system/xbin/sqlite3 and zip
* data/99supercharger.sh, local.prop, superchargeradj, superchargerminfree
Then reboot
Click to expand...

If Thunderbolt is installed and want to change to Adrenaline Shot:

Then push adrenaline shot:
* system/bin/app_process and system_server
* system/etc/init.d/(all)
* system/etc/sysctl.conf
* system/lib/libsqlite.so and libsqlite_jni.so
Then reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(made these lists according to updater-script)
Is it possible to do this without getting a brick? just like you flash themes in broodROM Configurator.
Another thing is, how do I add the remount script (running as root) of thunderbolt to scripts which load on boot (not init.d execution but when system is loaded)?
(the thing you normally do with script manager)
I don't like to double post. But can someone who knows it please reply?
The only command that I know which might help is invoked in adb: stop.
It literally freezes the whole phone but you can still access the whole filesystem over adb and replace files or remount. Obviously, when you do replace those files, you have no other option than to perform a reboot after you're done. Otherwise processes will crash and FC.

Ok thanks I had that in mind. so I will make a fully automated system accelerator switch script
OS X Build Set Up 1.2 - By Kyle Frost (frostincredible)
So you want to build AOKP or CM10.1 on OS X? Well worry no longer my friends,
it is about to get a whole lot easier. Why is that? Because this script I've written will do pretty
much everything for you, from creating the case sensitive DMG to installing the required files,
to setting up all the folders. The best part? It also will initialize the AOKP or CM repo (depending
on your choice) and you can also build them straight from the script! How fantastic is that?!
Simply read on to see how! Make sure to follow all the instructions (there aren't many)!
Follow these steps:
Go here and download OS X Build Set Up 1.2 (OSX_Setup-1.2.zip) - DOWNLOAD
Place the ZIP file on your Desktop.
Extract the ZIP to your Desktop.
Here comes the only tricky part. Open the file located at OSX_Setup/scripts/advanced_scripts/build_cm or build_aokp, whichever you're going to build.
Find this line -
Code:
# BELOW IS THE ONLY LINE YOU SHOULD BE EDITING. REPLACE *YOUR DEVICE* WHITH YOUR DEVICE'S CODE NAME. EX - NEXUS 7 = "grouper"
Just below that, edit this line with the instructions in the one I just posted -
Code:
cp /Volumes/Android/OUT/target/product/*YOUR DEVICE*/aokp_*YOUR DEVICE*-ota-eng.$ME.zip /Volumes/Android/Builds/AOKP_$ME.$NOW.zip
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DON'T EDIT ANYTHING ELSE.
Open your favorite Terminal application (the default on is Terminal located at /Applications/Utilities/Terminal).
cd to the OSX_Setup folder on your Desktop.
Code:
cd /Users/YOUR NAME/OSX_Setup
Run the following -
Code:
./runme
After running this, you will be presented with the following menu -
Code:
============================================================
OS X Build Set Up 1.2 - by Kyle Frost
============================================================
---Main Menu---
1 - Create DMG
2 - Install required files (MUST install MacPorts first)
MacPorts available free at www.macports.org
3 - Set up folders
WARNING: DO NOT RUN ADVANCED MENU UNTIL
YOU HAVE RUN ALL 3 ABOVE, OR HAVE DONE
THEM ALL MANUALLY. THANK YOU.
0 - Advanced Menu
x - Exit
Enter option:
As you can see, you need to go here and install MacPorts before proceeding - MacPorts
After installing MacPorts you can go ahead and run everything.
Create DMG will give you the options of creating a 25GB, 30GB, 40GB, 50GB, or 60GB DMG. 25GB is the lowest recommended by the Android Team.
Install required files will simply do just that, it will install the files needed as specified in the AOSP documents. This can take a while, so go take a nap while it runs.
Set up folders will give you the option of setting up the folders for AOKP or CM10.1. Simply choose which you want and the folders will be created.
Choosing Advanced Menu will give you this -
Code:
============================================================
OS X Build Set Up 1.2 - by Kyle Frost
============================================================
---Advanced Menu---
MUST INSTALL XCODE BEFORE BUILDING!
XCODE IS FREE IN THE MAC APP STORE!
1 - Initialize AOKP Repo
2 - Initialize CM10.1 Repo
When building, it will give you a list
of devices. Enter the number for your device
configuration and the build will continue.
It will take a while the first time, as the
source must first completely download.
3 - Build AOKP
4 - Build CM10.1
Note: When the build is complete, you can
find the finished ZIP in the Builds
folder on your Android disk image.
0 - Go to Main Menu
Enter option:
There you can see you need to install Xcode, if you haven't already. It is free in the Mac App Store (this script is for OS X, you know).
All the options are pretty self explanatory. Make sure you have run the folder set up for the ROM which you wish to build first. Run the initialize option for your desired ROM before running the build option.
That is it! After the build has done (takes a while the first time you set all this up, much faster the next few times) you will be able to build your own nightly's, or whatever you so desire! Have fun!
NOTE: If you have an error regarding "Xcode" and the "10.6 SDK" when trying to build, download the MacOSX10.6.sdk.zip, decompress it, and place it in "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/".
Disclaimer: This will only work with devices that are officially supported by AOKP or CM10.1. If your device is not supported by their official repos, either wait to see if it is, try to edit my script to get the repo your device's tree is on, or wait until I get around to writing a tutorial on how to add custom repos.
Please do not redistribute this without my permission,
and feel free to hit that thanks button if you liked this.
Version 1.0 - Initial Release
Version 1.1 - Bug Fixes
Version 1.2 - Bug Fixes
Reserved for future tips and tricks.
Thanks mate..

What Mac OS version is this for?
This is sweet and appreciated. I can't wait to try this tonight.Thanks for the script and tutorial.
What Mac OS X is this for? I assume Mountain Lion. I'm run 10.8.2 at work and thinking about updating my home computer to the same. I have a build environment setup for OS X 10.6.8 at home, but Mac Ports was giving me issues and this will help me in getting my build environment back up and going. Thanks again.
I have mountain Lion, will it work on it? I am surely gonna give it a try when i get home! I was thinking on installing ubuntu. but nahh!
Make sure you mount the sparse image before trying to install the folders
I unfortunately do not own a fast enough computer can someone build aokp for xoom?
Which Version of xCode is requirement? (4.4, 4.0 or a older Version)

any way we can build on windows? without emulation?
Thanks for making this easy! Is there a way to leverage this to also cherrypick patches or revert official merges that don't work well for me?

Same here compiling for grouper and tried 5 and 6.
It would appear that I've completely screwed it up. After creating a twenty-five gig partition, I began to try to build, and was met with an error about Xcode. I fix it, and continued. However, I ended up deleting the created partition through Disk Image. Whenever I try using the program to create another, it says one already exists (which it doesn't). I don't know what to do now.

You could try:
Code:
rm -f ~/Android.dmg.sparseimage
then try recreating it through the app.
