[Bada Software and Hacking General] KrazyKong:
There are many who'd love to be able to use Android on the Wave. However so many groups and people have "started" projects and then just disappeared. If you are working on this, the how about some updates to let everyone know how it's going. Just saying it's going to be l33t and it's going to get done isn't enough. Too many folks have waited and hoped for several months concerning this and ended up just getting pissed off and ditching Bada for Android proper anyway.

Bummer. I for one love the idea of a way to run Android apps on Bada. That reply looks like they can make it happen for any phone OS (if hardware capable), but will only do it for a contract or fee. From seeing the history of Bada, there's no way Samsung would pay to make this happen :(
[Bada Software and Hacking General] sabianadmin:
If you where referring to me and my lack of update on this project don't bother. (if not sorry for accusing you) Currently i am waiting to get a copy of Alien Dalvik to play with (the Myriad rep mentioned that it didn't rely on Qt) and while i wait am attempting to port various libraries (including Qt) to Bada if i am successful ill post an update.

I will need assistance if this is to be done, i don't have the time or knowledge to get this done on my own.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] KrazyKong:
sabianadmin, I wasn't referring to you dude :) more wavedroid, and the other folks who have carried on how Android for the Wave is happening and we should all wait. People have been waiting, and frankly are sick of waiting. It is hasn't happened by now, then I can't see it happening anytime soon. And the longer this goes on, the less likely a port will ever happen as the phone get's older and older.

abianadmin, the idea or porting Dalvik is brilliant. I have no coding experience at all, but still through my support behind the idea of getting this ported. Apart from customization, apps are the real reason people want Android on the Wave.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] AbhishekS:
I agree. The only thing which makes me feel to switch on Android are the apps. If we get good apps for Bada, then Bada > Android.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] puked:
well, hardware is great, but the system itself is somehow limited right now...
[Bada Software and Hacking General] wirel1:
I am no expert in programming, just tinker with it from time to time, but it seems to me that this is the more viable way to get good apps for BADA, great idea sabianadmin!

I hope the porting of libraries goes smooth, good luck!

IcedRobot – An OpenJDK-based Fork of Android

from homepage

"IcedRobot is an attempt to bring the Android API on Linux Desktop.

We‘re basically trying to do two main things:

1. Have Dalvik completely separated from the usual Android infrastructure so that it runs as any other *unix program in the Linux environment (and non Linux, I personally want it to work on OSX and QNX).

2. Avoid Dalvik and Harmony as much as possible and put the Android stack on top of the OpenJDK class library, and run the whole thing in Hotspot (this is cool, ins‘t it?). "
[Bada Software and Hacking General] sabianadmin:
Thats fantastic news, does anybody know if bada uses OpenJDK or one of the more run of the mill mobile JREs?

How much progress have you guys made?

Ambitious project, have you thought about contacting canonical to help you out? I know they where interested in something similar a while back. Try the ubuntu developers mailing list :-)
[Bada Software and Hacking General] fwals:
maybe..this point is work
[Bada Software and Hacking General] DarkRidder:
Hey there!

Is this being successful? As other people, I think that BADA is better than Android, besides apps thing. If we could get Android apps on Bada, then Bada > Android in everything!

So, what is the status here?

King Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] sabianadmin:
I am waiting for IceRobot to come into a useful state before making a port to Bada, with the Android port being so close I'm not really sure if its necessary or not.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] m.straesser:
Hey guys,

I think that many users would prefer to have bada on their phones with the option to launch android apps instead of having a complete android OS installed.

I don't have any skills in programming so I can't really help you, but please keep up your work on this project!
[Bada Software and Hacking General] wav3rid3r:
although im following the android port and wish it great sucess, i too would prefer bada + android apps, that would be like the best of 2 worlds :D

i had a brief user experience with android before getting my Wave, and i must say that i find Bada a better OS, as an end user

(besides Bada seems much faster...at least in my Wave its blazing fast :D)

so please dont abandon this idea ! ;)
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Infomatrix:
Alien Dalvik is only adressed to companies/enterprises. To manufacturers that develop their own operating systems like Samsung, Nokia, Apple, Blackberry and others. It is not adressed to private users or developers or any other developers. So there will be no Alien Dalvik for Bada if Samsung doesn't buy it from Myrid (company that develops Alien Dalvik). And Samsung will never buy Alien Dalvik or anything similar for Bada because Samsung already has Android Devices. They could close their whole Bada Appstore then. And there is nothing to port for Bada because there is no Alien Dalvik available anyway. Only a version for Meego that you could see on some videos. But there is no leaked version of that. Nobody knows if Meego will ever get Alien Dalvik. Bada will defintily not get Alien Dalvik because Samsung doesn't want it for Bada.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adi4u4882:
Do we have any Source Code Or anything like that so that developers can make their own Alien Dalvik for BADA OS.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] sabianadmin:
Please go and look up the IceDroid project for me.
[Nook Color Android Development] vapor63:
I'm curious as to how this works out. Do we really need two SD cards, however? Or does that just save time?
[Nook Color Android Development] nemith:
Are you sure the ramdisk and kernel don't need upgrading as well?

[Nook Color Android Development] dhoshman:
Seriously hoping that this works. The changelog shows some great improvements, while not necessarily big. Please let us know how its going for you.
[Nook Color Android Development] diomark:
first attempt resulted in bootloops.. Most likely permission related as I had just used zip on windows.. after using CW to recovery my old image, I'm trying again with a zip file made under linux (to retain permissions..).

The kernel might be necessary.. not sure.. will report back..

[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
Oops, I 'd suggest editing your first post and making it clear NOT to try this just yet..
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
I have a flashable, prerooted update.zip that gets you to 1.1. Will post up tonight. It worked fine for me when trying to update to 1.1.
[Nook Color Android Development] cflynt:
Not that I understand enough about it, but was thinking that framework had to be updated for google apps to work, is that going to be included with your update.zip? Or was the apps working without modification?
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
What do u mean prerooted. What would this flashable zip do when installed overautonootered 1.0.1?
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
It's essentially a ROM template created from the sideload update.zip from barnes and noble. It contains the gapps framework, gapps permissions, as well as busybox and the su binary along with the other goodies from the autonooter img.

I didn't want to risk brick on unrooting and updating via official so the created update.zip flashes via clockwork recovery but lacks the uboot stuffs for clockwork overwrite.
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
SO if we were to flash this we essentially goto a 1.1 nootered?

Will we be able to use the 1.1 ghz OC kernal?
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
Yes. 10char
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
Well if it works as you say you are gonna make a lot of people happy!!!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] bdcrim:
Have observed Decad3nce's work on the CDMA hero. This will be the real deal. Thank you sir. Glad you are on board.
[Nook Color Android Development] jballz0682:
Yea I've seen him on the Eris forums too. Thanks again Decad3nce. Much appreciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
Sounds cool, but will it require CWM to install? Will it require it to run after?

I'm still seeing little weirdness reported with CWM so I'm avoiding it for now, but I could always install it and remove it again..
[Nook Color Android Development] Kelvala:
Decad3nce nice work!

All others, just sit tight, I am sure he's testing and will post a write up later. One thing I have learned from these boards is:

1. Never rush a developer

2. Never rush a developer

3. See #1 then #2.

Rushing leads to bugs leads to hate posts. So....Never rush a developer :D
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
This is why i love XDA. I have loved it ever since getting my HTC Blue Angel, and by god, i will continue to love it. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] cal3thousand:
Me too!

I see news on Engadget... I head straight to here to find out what work has been done and I'm never disappointed because there's always a dozen pages on the subject by then.
[Nook Color Android Development] diomark:
clumsy at best, but I re-wrote the OP about what I did to get 1.1 w/ su working on my nook.. don't attempt unless you have experience in adb / linux shell..

I'll update once I have time to clean things up..

-m
[Nook Color Android Development] diomark:
Got this working 100% (based on my limited testing..) - including market apps/etc.. - but Decad3nce update.zip method would be better once that's up..

-mark
[Nook Color Android Development] compuguy1088:
Sounds good, though for most, it may be wise to wait for Decad3nce's update payload.
[Nook Color Android Development] rajendra82:
The steps are not too bad. I would prefer to get the update.zip to get the human error part out of the equation as much as possible, but if that for some reason is not available by tomorrow, I'll try the manual method. Good stuff, and keep us posted if you find something wrong before I embark on this.
[Nook Color Android Development] eyecrispy:
Will I be able to flash this over 1.0.0? Or will this only work for those on 1.0.1?
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
It's working fine. Just need to squash a few bugs with permissions.

Will have flashable up tomorrow, need to finish MIPS hw. :( (damn gnome sorting in assembly)
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
That is amazing can't wait!

Anyway to test if the 1.1ghz overclock kernel works with it?

Maybe even include it in a version of the ROM so we only need to run one time?
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
It works fine. I'm leaving it mostly stock so people can just add whatever they want, and so that it can be a template for future projects.
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
Makes sense.

Will this be a simple flash with cwr?

Will there be any data loss form current 1.0.1 setup?

Other than stock browser pinch to zoom have you noticed any other benefits to being at 1.1?
[Nook Color Android Development] Decad3nce:
No data loss. Simple flash. The entire 1.1.0 update makes everything smoother/quicker, even on stock kernel. It's just highly optimized .
[Nook Color Android Development] DefTaker:
Thanks in advance...yeah, I successfully OC'd to 1Ghz but saw that my battery was barely lasting 6 hours on STAND-BY! (yes, I had setCPU configured as well as settings profile). Wasn't worth the loss of battery life for me as the stock 800Mhz is decent (even with the occasional hiccup/lag).

I may try the new 1.1Ghz but I just LOVE the fact that my rooted Nook Color will last me about 4 days on stand-by with me using it for 2-3 hours a day (moderate usage). :-)
[Nook Color Android Development] jianglai:
It seems I lost adb access after this. I can boot into CW on uSD and adb but if I boot from rooted NC 1.1.0 adb doesn't work anymore....Anyway to fix this?
[Nook Color Android Development] miemens:
Sounds awesome!
[Nook Color Android Development] criley:
Ok,

My nook is rooted using autonooter 2.12.25. It was 1.01 when I got it from the store. I can plug my nook in to my laptop using the usb cable and "adb devices" returns my device.

I created the clockwork recovery image from the tarball on the first page and booted up with that sdcard. However, while booted into clockwork recovery, I have no adb access. "adb devices" returns nothing. I've tried 5 or 6 times. While booted normally, I have adb. Booted into cwr, nothing.

Any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] diomark:
Couple of major things I've noticed -

I'm no longer accidentally hitting links when scrolling!

Viewing nook magazines is a much smoother process.
[Nook Color Android Development] diomark:
I believe BN did that as part of their dev program:(

Until someone hacks it otherwise, I found quicksshd in the market to be a great workaround - basically allows you to SSH from your desktop to the nook and run commands locally...

-mark
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
They also had to fix that in Auto Nooter, so nothing has changed here. Just this rooting method needs to do something similar to what Auto Nooter did to enable ADB.
[Nook Color Android Development] criley:
So whatup with my "no adb when booted from cwm usdcard"?

If I boot clockwork from sdcard I should have adb right?

I gotta be doing something wrong.
[Nook Color Android Development] rajendra82:
Ignore me.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
Since I plan on doing heavy lifting (read Nookie Froyo and Nookie Honeycomb) via SDcard, I'd like the internal memory to be as stock as possible (read 1.1.0, rooted). Since the only 1.1.0 rooted distro right now requires CWR, I'm staying away from that. I'd like to use this manual procedure but after reading the thread I'm unclear on something. I saw you got Market and SU working. Is ADB access enabled?

Has anyone heard of an app that can trick the vibrant into thinking that it's always on wifi? I know that this is possible on a jail broken iphone but haven't heard of it for android yet.
[EVO 4G Accessories] cardi lyone:
Hey everybody its Cardi Lyone here with a pondering question for all you super developers. i recently bought an SD card off of ebay that was a 32gb for my htc evo. granted it came from china so i got it for round 10 bucks but thats not the problem. the card DOES WORK AND read at 32gbs when entered in the phone and threw my laptop; but when i try to copy everything on my stock card to that card everything usually everything reads apps ect, but my music and pictures. i have no idea whats going on thought it was kinda weird. looking for a little feedback before i go out and spend good knows how much for another 32 gb card. thanks for reading and helping.
[EVO 4G Accessories] filmaker:
Hmmm....I don't have any idea, but did you try reformatting it as FAT32? Sorry, that's all I could think of.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Deleted member 3109183:
The sd card is a fraud. Its not really 32 gigs.
[EVO 4G Accessories] cphancock1:
agreed

sd cards can be hacked so they say they hold so much data but what it does is just keep writing over the same blocks. There are programs to test the actual size try... h2testw... google it, its a free program it takes awhile since it tries to read and write the the full amount of the card to see its real capacity. my guess is that you have a 512mb card hacked to say 32gb... :( sorry man
[EVO 4G Accessories] cardi lyone:
i was figuring so, guess i didnt want to think it was true. but thanks for all your help on the matter. if anyone has a 16 or higher laying around leave me message maybe we could work something out!
[Wildfire General] anuragkanase:
Hey Mates,

I am yet undone with overclocking the CPU since it drains more battery and as it is I am not at all satisfied with wildfire battery life.

These days I am engaged in watching movies of all formats nd the major problem lies when CPU is not able to handle the video format.

So does overclocking really impoves the video watching feedback? Does it improves the FPS factor?

If so, to which frequency should I overclock my wildfire.
[Wildfire General] dementedkid:
Only tried with avi files via arc media. Playback improved a little with OC, but I got better results lowering to native resolution (320x 240) even at stock CPU speed.
[Wildfire General] anuragkanase:
Yes, i do use arcMedia, and i liked its performance too. But when it comes to multitasking, like, read Message while video is paused, it creates lot of playback problem. I use 2 media players, arcMedia, which is great, and QQPlayer, which according to me is worth using on android, better support, clean.
[Wildfire General] gzci:
overclocking maybe instability。。。

I have been using this app as long as I had this phone. But I realized that it made my phone really slow while installing things because it had to scan it. I'm thinking about uninstalling it....

Is this app necessary? Are there any alternatives?

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
There is another alternative.

AVG owns DroidSecurity and then Lookouts version.

Necessary? Maybe maybe not. If your phone isn't rooted it is probably not an issue, and if it's rooted it might not be if you keep track of what apps have root access.

Root kits are out there in the mobile world.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
AVG owns DroidSecurity and then Lookouts version.

I meant,

AVG own DroidSecurity which has some of the same features as Lookouts version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
I read way too much on here and have yet to see a thread "help I think I have a virus"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
Yeah, I have yet to see a post about a possible virus. Lookout provides a few other options which makes it handy, and one that makes it dangerous. The tracking feature (which has been repeated in a few other apps that may or may not need root access) is something that can be used for bad or good.

The biggest problem is apps outside of the normal app store and ones needing root access. Android (and linux/unix/mac) have security issues exploits and whatnot but they are not prevalent like they are in Windows. Windows Mobile has root kits, and there are groups that have warned of security holes and exploits in Android and I remember there being a few on jailbroken IOS devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
Do you guys use any security app?

I deleted it for now and it seemed to have increase my phone's speed a lot.

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
At this point the biggest risk is from a lost or stolen phone. I don't use any application for security though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwood55812:
I use lookout, but the only thing I use it for is the "Find Me" feature, you're right, having it scan all apps on install is super painful, esp if you're restoring after a flash...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
I use it. I might not need it with how picky I am about apps but knowing that mobile phones are a big security hole I want something.

Searched the market place and noticed that Macafee and Norton are releasing their own now.

Phones (the type XDA users have) are more like computers every week and not treating them as such could be dangerous in the near future.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
Well the find me feature doesn't work on my phone cause my GPS is horrible even though I tried everything.. anyway I'm looking for other security apps that only scans when I want it to. Is the ES security good?

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
Not sure about the other ones. Stick to the big name ones such as Lookout, AVG, Norton, Macaffee since they have a lot riding on making quality products.

I would add games to the do not scan list so that my game playing wouldn't get slow, also adding them to the whitelist for watchdog helps avoid the performance hit you get from the constant scanning of accessed files and monitoring of the processes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
Which one should I get. Avg security or antivirus.? What's the difference?

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tejas offroad:
I had lookout for a little while. I think my phone runs better now that i got rid of it. I also dont download random things i see or go to off websites.
