rockbox

History

Thomas Martitz ef38221602 android: Hopefully fix a rare hang of the UI. Sometimes (and perhaps only on some devices) Android's YesNo dialog loses focus and is put to the background. Since the native code waits on the result (which is then impossible to happen) it would become impossible to further control Rockbox. This is an attempt to fix as I cannot reproduce the problem on my device(s). Change-Id: Iff849ff4be5e8f41922fb7d36491d860486c6441		2013-01-18 09:49:46 +01:00

This folder contains the java parts needed to build an Rockbox as an
application for android.

* Prerequisites

Download and install the Android SDK[1] and NDK[2], or run installToolchain.sh.
After you extracted the SDK, you need to run <sdk-dir>/tools/android in order to
install the actual platform sdk from the available packages tab (SDK Platform
Android 1.5 or above should work).
In the virtual devices tab you can also setup a emulator.


Then, make sure you have the ANDROID_SDK_PATH and ANDROID_NDK_PATH (pointing to
the each's root directory) environment variables set up, otherwise configure will fail to find the compiler and
compiling the java files will fail.

* Build instructions

1. Create a separate build folder. Do not build in this source directory.

2. Run "../tools/configure". Choose the "Android" target and input your
   screen resolution.

3. Run "make"

4. Run "make zip". This has to be run the first time, and any time themes
   or plugins have changed. Otherwise you may skip it.

5. Run "make apk"

6. Optional. Install on your target/emulator, using the following command:
   "$ANDROID_SDK_PATH/tools/adb install -r rockbox.apk"
