Hi all,
Seems that google has released a new SDK for the new smartphone OS Android.
Now I'm not very known with the possibilitaties are related to this new OS.
Is it possiible to run this on the Artemis?
If you want to try, here is the link: http://code.google.com/android/download_list.html
** I or Google are not responable for any loss or failing of your equipment**
I thought about this issue too and it interests me extremely !!!
Somebody knows about Android ROMs for Artemis or where can I find informations on this ??
No
Read the Android's FAQ. Basically it will only run on new unknown hardware.

Android is a new open source mobile operating system that Google developed and an SDK has just been made available.
It would be great to see this ported to the Universal if its possible.
I don't see why it would not run since the Universal can already run Linux (to some extent) and Android is just based on that. Whether and to what extent the hardware can be supported is another question that only our programmers can answer. As we can surely count HTC out on supporting their legacy devices it might not be worth anybodies time in the end.
SDK for Android would not help at all. It is just a set of headers and import libraries. To port something to a device you need complete source codes of its kernel, software, etc. Even more - we don't know hardware requirements for Android. It may require the NOR flash to run from it - and we don't have it on our device at all.

Nobody uses NOR these days, it's too expensive and provides no real
benefit over NAND. The XIP days are over.
I hate java with passion, but i don't see any reason why Android software
will not be running on the universal.
Any news? I mean: can Universal run an Android ROM?
I saw something on tytnII, is there an hope?
can anyone confirm if android requires a customised hardware or minimum requirements....
By The Looks Of It I Shouldnt See Why Not...
I Saw That Video Of It On The Tytn And It Looks Like Its Just A Linux Based Kernel Booting Though Haret.
Theirs Already Some Pretty Good Progress With Linux On The UNI And I Dont See Why It Shouldnt Be Possible To Patch This Up. (Wish I Could But Im Not A Linux Coder )
maybe something like this
(click on the emote)
could be done for univ.
Getting A Replacement
I Get My Replacement XDA Exec On Monday Hopefully So Ill See If I Can Do Anything. No Promises Though

It looks promising but I am also awaiting the Ubuntu Mobile edition for PCC: it looks awesome!
if it has to run java bytecode
hi a .CAB solution should be possible. tis my prefered choice at present. KVM with class jar anyone??
any news ?
Kaiser can run Android, any ROM for Uni?
In this thread we have Android ported in to a Kaiser, hope someone is working on an Android ROM for UNI!!
It looks very nice the interface
Does anyone knows more info about this?
Thanks
Gracias
Any news on Android for Uni?
I've been trying to get it to work on my ELFin too, but i gave up when i only managed to get the Linwizard running without startx... (i dont know how to telnet and startx -.-)
Any news on this?
I'm thinking of getting a universal but i'm gathering info on it atm!
Has anyone been able to get some real progress on this matter?
I installed this onto my main memory, but when I run it I get a blank screen and the phone vibrates continuously, what am I doing wrong? I think this version is supposed to work on the Universal.
hye !
i also tried to install android on my universal, but it didn't work at all, i only had a black sreen and it vibrate without stopping. if someone has an idea, or a new thread were we can find out a running android os for uni... i take it !
Very keen on this
Is there a project? .. I'm a developer and would be willing to assist, but i haven't got enough experience with these devices to start the project off myself...
Count me in as a beta tester
It would be great to have Android on Uni!!
So this news means that very soon developers can start working on android to be ported on other devices!!!

Hi,
I am a bit confused and will appreciate your help:
Here goes....
Lets say I want to develop a new keyboard driver, and I actually want to replace the old one on my device. This project is not meant to be commercial or anything so I can assume that I will be the only user, and I have no privilege problems (assuming I have a developer certificate for my phone).
So, is it possible for me to develop a new keyboard driver and replace my old one with the new one ?
Is the old driver is written in the rom ? is there a way to replace it (e.g if Microsoft will publish an update for their keyboard driver .. )
Is the only way to do it is to create a new bsp ? How can I create a BSP for my phone (or can only the big manufactures such as samsung create a bsp )?
I am proficient driver developer for the win platform, but a total newbie in the ce world.... thanks for your help
Im also interested in this as i'm having problems with my keyboard not working after i type for any extended amount of time.

Hmm so u can develop driver but donno how to insert into device right? I would like to help u. Check your private message!!
Hello there,
Like you can see this is my first post, so I start with saying I am happy to find this place and to be here.
Just a little while now, I am a proud owner of a HTC Desire aka HTC Bravo.
Now i am a little into programming with languages like java c c++ c# and some other strange ones.
So you can feel where I'm going to maby... I wanna start of developing my own APP on my HTC Desire.
Now I have a strange feeling that it's different to develop for a Nexus One as for a HTC Desire, like maby the way drivers are installed etc.
So can anyone point me in the right direction to start off?
Thanks in advanced! DesireDroid

I found this article very informative: http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html
And you develop an app for Android, not for a specific phone.

Thnxs for your reply petz, I'm going to study that page carefully
I understand that you dev for Android, but there are allot of stories about apps only working on 1.5 or 1.6 , 2.1 etc.
Also the point to use the HTC Desire as a developers phone. Are there differences between developing (connecting the htc desire to the pc, and test your self made apps on it, so you need propper drivers etc... or are these the same as from the htc sync.exe ?) on the HTC Desire and a Nexus One for example?
I've only begun developing apps yesterday
As I understand it, you only use the functions provided by the Android SDK, so you don't need to use specific drivers. One app should work on every phone, as long as the phone has the appropriate functions (GPS, Wifi...). You can develop an app for a specific version of Android (1.5, 1.6, 2.1,...) If you use 2.1, older versions of Android won't be able to use the app.
Ok, so what I want (and this may be a fairly common refrain at this point) is just a typical Android install, none of the Samsung custom stuff.
Does such a thing exist? I have read, basically, no.
I don't have the handset yet. Haven't had an Android handset since G1 so am in a learning phase, have learned lots from forums in recent days re ROMs etc. But please bear in mind that I'm still trying to understand.
So, what is the reason there is no "master" stock/vanilla Android I can just download and put on the phone? Is it because each has to be customised for different hardware?
Can someone lay out the steps necessary to make the Galaxy S as close to original-2.2 as possible?
The reason you don't have a vanilla Android distro for most phones is due to the specific phone drivers. You can very well download the android source code, but without the drivers, there is no point! I know samsung has open sourced the code for Android 2.1, but I'm not sure if they have done the same for the drivers. For now the best alternative is to install a regular firmware, then work backwards from there, removing the bloat. Of course, this is just my understanding! If there is indeed a way to instal vanilla Android on the Galaxy S, would love to hear that
I notice Canonical's Ubuntu operating system is being developed to run on devices which currently run android:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
And would seem a new "experimental snapshot" of the software has been released for development and evaluation.
The link below contains the download and all instructions needed to flash a device with the software, and I was wondering if anyone with more insight into the subject than myself could advise whether we can expect to see Ubuntu come to the P6 soon or not?
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
It looks promising to me...

Our device doesn't have kernel which can support " device loop " . If have smone can build kernel with that function. We can run uBuntu or other backtrack, kali linux etc with linux deploy or linux installer complete.
Sry poor english.
Can anyone make a port?
There is a Guide on how to do it so can anyone?
Would be great!!
