why not try virtualbox? one of the easiest ways to use linux on a windows machine
[Desire Android Development] jazha:
ubuntu will infact install as a program in windows, making a VM for itself all automatic.

Just pop in the CD in windows and run "wubi.exe"
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Okay - UPDATE:

I managed my problem, checked and tried.

BUT: WTF?! ALL IS DONE - AND IT SAYS: No Ext mounted? WTF - now I need help - and it's done. :>
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
you tried to mount and unmount the ext in recovery and then reboot.
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Which task was it in the clockwork-recovery?

mount /Sd-ext?

Okay - done - need to flash a new a2sd - I bricked my version a lil'... ^^'
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
can't find the following line: “setprop net.tcp.buffersize.wimax4096,87380,110208,4096,163 84,110208”

only default, wifi, umts, edge, gprs
[Desire Android Development] xtcislove:
I think so :D
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
yes mount /sd-ext
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
only search 'net.tcp.buffersize' ...

:> But I had done it... And it's still there - I am wondering why... :(
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
Ext support is compiled in the kernel isn't it?
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
that shows me 5 lines of net.tcp.buffersize but no wimax. Only default, wifi, gprs etc
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
I think so - in the recovery I can read the ext ...

And I managed to copy the ext - but the system boot the sd first.

If I try to reboot - It does it - without bootloops.

Anyone knows more about it? It maybe could help, If some know a lot more about A2SD and the right kernel...
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
wimax isn't neccesary... :> But look two lines under that... There is still the lines. ...
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
i think you need to modify the kernal to support ext.

might be wrong
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Good news - now I tried ... I think ... the first a2sd-app.

Need to check a lot more, but the first try now worked. ... Maybe it's only a flashing and a line. ... Let it boot.

Bah, It worked - only if it was booted.

Now ...:

I'm not sure, what it done.

Why It's stucked.

Atm I'm in tha bootscreen - the logcat says the last one - nothing more.

A2SD said: Hey, I running perfectly, I dunno what you mean - I feel fine.

Mhmhmh. I need someone, who had done an A2SD for Desire-Roms.

by the way, do you have the source code of this kernel?
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Mee? No... I only hackish the simple lines, but the first code - where have you it from? Inside the Boot.img?

Edit: Maybe we have some luck, I found a r1-a2sd from MoDaCos' first Root-Guide.
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
I don't have DJDroid installed anymore, but if you pull the kernel's config you can see if EXT support is added.

adb pull /proc/config.gz .
gunzip config.gz
mv config .config

Then read in a txt editor.

Your looking for "CONFIG_EXT2_FS" and or "CONFIG_EXT3_FS"
[Desire Android Development] ksc91u:
Yes, it is from boot.img.

You can use tools attached to unpack boot.img.

To repack, you need mkbookimg, build it from android source code.

And run.

./mkbootimg --kernel boot.img-kernel.gz --ramdisk ramdisk-repack.cpio.gz --base 20000000 --cmdline 'no_console_suspend=1 msmsdcc_sdioirq=1 wire.search_count=5' -o myboot.img

Something I don't understand is, when I unpack boot.img from DJDroid, it warn something about extra file after initramfs..

I add init.rc script and repack, after boot, wifi does not work anymore.

Switch back to DeFrost until source code of DJDroid is available..

[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Okay, I try this one next time. ATM I'm working on an old A2SD from MoDaCo - Maybe it works... I think this one was the 'exploding-dalvikcache' one - but it only need to work.
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
OKAY :D

Now we need someone, who can work with direct kernel files.

I only can do something hackish - like injecting and rebuilding ... So I try only to inject in the old files, the new stuff. :>

Is here someone who can do that on this base?
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
No source is available for the DJDroid Froyo kernel.
[Desire Android Development] ksc91u:
I won't call those source code...

You can push /system/init.d/* files from modaco to any rom you want, but they will not be executed at boot time unless you have sysinit service in init.rc
[Desire Android Development] DarkMio:
Puh - I need to go, for now. Work and so on. :(

Maybe someone haz a great idea. ;)
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
there is no source available, bcause its a stock HTC Kernel

Could you get me the logcat?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hmsq:
Once I'm back home, i'll try and get it.

Same issue here, App is always black. How do i get you the logcat?

I just ran a terminal and made sure I had premissions and ran the following command.

logcat > logfile.txt

@JD82 Do you need the whole file?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JD82:

Wht i know

-photoshop

-flash

-dreamweaver

-maya

-c/c++ (theoritically strong)

- little java

Thanks :-)

- C/C++

- SQL

- Java
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RoboPhred:
Would be helpful if you also included the types of programs you were interested in working on.

Its a good idea if we all freshers hook up together. wht you say? and after that we will get some experienced developer to lead us :-)

I know an app I would pay for is one that could control the video functions of a PS3 with my phone. I would think it is possible since the the PS3 remote uses bluetooth, but I'm not a developer so it might not be possible.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shadomastr:
I don't know if you've done this already but google provides all the sdk material on their android developers site. They also give instructions on how to get started using the sdk. Pretty much everything seems to be built on java. Have fun!

Google provides almost all the tutorials and instructions you could ever need to begin developing.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blaboy51:
yea you should start at http://developer.android.com/index.html if you know java you should be good to go after reading and doing the tutorials
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jenod:
Thanks:-)

I already read those things. Anyway thanks for your support and encouragment. and im now done with

->installed eclipse

->installed android sdk

->connected both eclipse and android sdk

-> now reading a book on how to develop android apps(in chapter 3 now)

All i need

-> some good friends(those who like to develop android apps,its okay if you are noobs)

->One experienced developer to guide me :-) [this is optional ;-)]
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sablesurfer:
HAHA...pretty much me too. Been debating about getting started for just over a year now. (Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Flash, Actionscript3, HTML, javascript, ~coldfusion, ~php, learning C#, can read VB, etc.)

Coming at this from a designing for training view. Been 15 yrs in technical training and looking to learn more. I got a few project ideas already and two things I really want...(which is what I am using for motivation)

As for the google tutorials...hello worlds really don't get you very far and I have looked out on web for other tuts. They all seem to have issues though...

Would appreciate feedback on the following....

-- This site/tut seems to 'assume' a whole lot and the program doesn't even work:

=== http://androidcore.com/android-programming-tutorials/182-fancy-listviews-part-one.html

(this one seems to not be showing any errors in SDK [it was first time, but not after restart] but it force closes in my emulator every time)

--This site/tut looked a bit more promising but is also has stuff that doesn't seem to work:

=== http://androidwizard.net/2010/05/create-a-context-menu-on-top-of-a-listview/

(no such thing as a OnPopulateContextMenuListener according to SDK and google site, switch(aItem.getId()) is not a supported method according to SDK, .getItem(menuInfo.position) cannot be resolved...all things a newb is at a loss to fix)

So...I am actually looking either for better tuts that get more in depth than hello world or someone from those sites that I can correspond with (as a trainer my OCD is really bothered by missing info in what look like the right kind of tut.)

Anyway...jenod...if you get some newbs together to work on stuff...I'd be interested.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jenod:
Thanks for your feedback.. wil surely PM u if i get some(i mean developers)..

(why) does Android

Know what would be totally awesome? If someone like (why the lucky stiff) wrote something poigniant, beautiful and easy-to-follow to lead someone into Android app development! Something that reads almost like his Poigniant Guide to Ruby or like Chris Pine's Learn to Program.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shadomastr:
Hey idk if you all have seen this yet, but it is worth checking out. Google has a free software developing tool in beta at the site http:// appinventor .googlelabs .com

The beta requires an invite much like google voice but it looks to have some potential.

(type the url into the internet, I had to add spaces because I cannot post urls yet)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sablesurfer:
It will not be as powerful as straight coding. It is meant to allow people to make little apps for themselves. One review I read even indicated that inventor apps will not be allowed in market.

(This is all early speculation, but hey it is what I read today as I went ahead and submitted my info for an invite...LOL)

Coming from Macromedia/Adobe...this would be kind of like Captivate is to Flash is to Actionscript. This would be Captivate...simple but simple.

I'm new to programming. In university for a comp sci degree, started with java this past semester, will be doing more this sem.

I'm interested in helping but I only know very little at the moment. Maybe with your guidance I can follow along ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dozybolox13:
Count me in!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] janfsd:
I would recommend you reading a book instead, my personal preference are the CommonsWare books, you can subscribe online and you get access to 3 of them. The 1st book and the tutorials one can be very helpful. There's an advanced one for more complicated subjects.

Also I recommend stackoverflow.com, there is a lot of questions/answers regarding android, and if you have a doubt about something, that's the best place to ask.
[Windows Mobile] Epson:
Can I skip these steps?

And something please consider:

- when using /n, don't sort OEM (%locale% - COMMON - dpi_xxx), or an option to skip OEM sorting

- initflashfiles.dat, app.dat hexstring convert

- don't edit app.dat header for easier edit and view

- can i have an option to keep all comment lines in initflashfiles.dat and app.dat?

It's very good app, thank you so much.
[Windows Mobile] kokotas:
I could add a switch for all of the above. Let me check it...

Well till now I can get only English hexstring converted correctly, but I'm looking for a way to do it for other languages... but with no success so far:(

What exactly do you mean? Give me an example if it's not difficult.

Well I don't like those useless comments, so no for this one.:)

Thank you for trying it and leaving your comments!

Regards!
[Windows Mobile] Cloudyfa:
I like those suggestion too because I don't use VK kitchen :D

I think he means the "FF FE" header of app.dat (you removed it), some text viewer can't display correct and think it's an binary file.

About the hexstring convert, maybe you should work with airxtreme as he did it very well here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=692314

Oh, and thank you for your app. It's great.
[Windows Mobile] kokotas:
Ok guys!

I uploaded a version which doesn't remove the header "FF FE" from each app.dat,

and has 2 new switches to control whether to:

(i) sort SYS,XIP and OEM according to VK style and

(ii) remove comments from initflashfiles.dat and app.dat

Only thing left is to find a way to convert ALL hexstrings, regardless LCID...

Regards!
[Windows Mobile] kokotas:
New version is attached @ 1st post to handle this issue.

I've tested it with English, Greek, German and Chinese Rom and it's working! :)

If you find anything wrong let me know...

Regards!
[Windows Mobile] Cloudyfa:
LOL, I don't know why but your tool does exactly what I want here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6992501&postcount=46

And when keep all comment lines, I see that you used the method I posted, it's great because we can split initflashfiles correctly and don't have junk lines left.

I've tested the new version with 0409, 0804 and 0404 ROMs, it's working great. Thank you so much, friend.
[Windows Mobile] kokotas:
I'm glad you like it!

I had seen your comments there.

Those were some of the things I wanted too, along with registry sorting , manila files sorting, old style packages sorting etc.

so when I started writing this little app I took them into consideration;)

Regards!
[Windows Mobile] Cloudyfa:
I think I've found a bug of your tool:

When I use your tool to sort Huashan leaked ROM. Some packages lose their locale files folder (exp: Power, MP3Trimmer,... lose their 0804\files).

Btw, please consider:

- Keep comment lines in initflashfiles.dat only

- Delete all comment lines in app.dat files, then add 1 line at top: ";***PkgName***" and 1 empty line at bottom.

So we don't need the option to keep comment lines anymore. We'll have initflashfiles.dat with default structure and well organized app.dat for EXT, and a nice final initflashfiles.dat after building process.

Thanks for the useful tool, friend!
[Windows Mobile] Cloudyfa:
Great work!!!

Ya, I've tested and it works very well now.

lol, you really did it exactly what I want again (about those basic comment lines) :D You know, it's a mess without them.

I've never faced that issue because I use this code in my kitchen:

if exist IMGFS\OEM\PACKAGE_* "%path_exe%OTHER\PkgSorter" /t:IMGFS\OEM /n /d

but it's great that you improve the stability.
