Great post, very useful! Adding the extra files and apps as part of the build process will really speed up my rom builds.

That’s a very cool alternative implementation for the lousy “eco button”! Unfortunately, I already have thrown my eco button into the garbage bin….

Hi Jon,

There are two kind of Android Development Phone. One is HTC dream while the other one is HTC Magic. So does the cupcake works in both phone? and is there any differences when i build kernel image for those two kind of phones?

Wow, you did some cool stuff with it to make it even more handy! Can you also rewrite the code to make (and bring) a cup of coffee whenever you hit it?

@Srikant Balaji I was having the same problem and googling about it and came across this site. The problem is caused by not putting


  { "name"        : "cros_deps",
    "url"         : "http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/cros_deps",
  } ,

in your .gclient of chrome folder, not chromeos. It is documented here once you place it in .gclient and gclient sync. You should be able to compile them without error.

Comment on Running Android on other hardware by Johan de Koning

Actually I started looking at the differences between the Chumby kernel and the normal 2.6.16 version. For running Android, the kernel should at least run version 2.6.25. When I get an overview of the changes made to the .16 version, I am able to apply those on the .25 version

Yesterday I tried flashing my Chumby with my own build kernel. I am able to run the kernel version createdof the source supplied by Chumby. I tried to merge this with the original .16 kernel version and flashed that version, but booting ends in a black screen. Looks like I did not merge things correctly so I will try to do it more step wise (only merge small parts like the code related to sound, then build, and than flash to see if that is working correct, and so on)

Only because I am busy with other things, I am not able to look at this before Christmas.
