[SCRIPT]setup android build environment

My buddy Tahl and I put our heads together to make a script for setting up the android build environment. He wrote it after I told him what it had to do. It installs android sdk/ndk, adb from anywhere, and apk tool, open-jdk-6, along with all required dependencies for compiling. You have the option of running it for Ubuntu or Linux Mint. Just navigate to the script's location extract, and run ./inst.sh in the terminal. Alternately, you can click the script and select "run in terminal". Enjoy

Nice script, thank you for sharing it here

Dang, wish this was available when I set up my Ubuntu system. Well, if I have to reinstall then I will definitely give this a shot.

Are you SURE the bootloader is unlocked? I'd try flashtool it's so much simpler

Yes I agree, install flashtool.
Install flashtool from here: http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
Once downloaded and installed head over to the directory of the programm and inside the folder "Drivers" install the driver located and chose appropriete options when the tick boxes come. Then you will figire out the rest. In flashmode you can flash kernals easily

it still don't work, any idea?

Your bootloader is probably not properly unlocked then. Try go over the procedure again to unlock the bootlaoder.

i try twice, but same result ...

Try download the kernel again. Maybe kernel file corrupted?

First! This looks interesting

I am more inclined to use the command line than a GUI interface myself. However I do have this downloaded now just in case.
Thank you so much!

No problem, this was mainly for those people who were flashing modded recoveries and some were having issues on the exact syntax and procedure

@CNexus gracias friend. This is awesome.

No problem

Nice . Great work as always :thumbup:

Use Root Explorer.
Enable R/W
Go to /etc/permissions
Edit platform.xml as the bottom of the picture (add "media_rw" line).
Save and reboot

This is the only way it should be done.

Thanks all for the suggestions - I tried the geeksoft apk and it did the trick. Actually, the first one I tried probably worked also, but the app I was using wouldn't work (iTag)...but i switched to another (Mp3Edit) and that worked like a charm!
Incidentally, I opened that permission xml file to look at any changes, and it appears the line was added just as it should.
Thanks again!

I'm not 100% sure right now but I think you have to right click on it and update it.

That doesn't work. It doesn't know what drivers to look for and just doesn't update

go to a YouTube tutorial about fastboot. The driver you are missing you have to update it and look for it on your computer. I'm not sure how you get the driver but I think you get it when setting up sdk. Anyways look at some tutorials and you'll find out where that stupid driver is located
