I'm going for open source. On windows i use NP++ with compare plugin. Dont know about Geany.. it maybe has compare function. What are the king of the hill guys are using? Windows or Ubuntu? (From my perspective it would be a sin to use windows for android development..)

I started just like that ;) That will change. Have a look in synaptics/software shop(or how its called :D never used that). Native application's are a lot better. If you need advice, or application, just let me know, i'll try to help.

Yes i know, native apps are always better than running apps in a virtual envoiroment. But some applications only work on windows, so the only possibility is using wine (or VirtualBox running Windows) :(

I already got some hints to applications, but I'm always thankful for everyone who helps me :D

UPDATE:

Android compiled without errors ;)

Yeah about that. I'd gonna take me days to finish downloading the android source ... to get the toolchains to build it. Have you got the 2.6.29 msm kernel floating around? Untouched?

If so, make a copy and apply that patch I uploaded. See what happens when you try to build it =]

I'm interested in hearing what exactly happened, if you get a moment.

Hi guys

Thanks for the help.

I'll continue with my work tomorrow.

The Pulse just reboots the whole time.

If i had the chance to see why it reboots... maybe I'll edit some drivers in /crash to force dem ti output the errors instead of rebooting...

See you tomorrow ;)

use "adb bugreport" or "adb logcat" then you'll see what's going on

Thanks for the hint!

I heard about logcat earlier, but I din't know how to use it ;)

Could someone please upload an untouched 2.6.29 kernel?

I tried to download it from the kernel repo, but i get an error

(error: revision refs/heads/master in manifests not found).

I can't even init the repo.

Greetings,

BigBear

Android 2.0 should be avalable on T-Mobiles website in week 11 if the testing and verification doesn't find any major problems, so this may save you all a few weeks of extra work?

Wow, this is good news indeed. Are you "in the know"? (one wink means yes, two winks means no)

Where did you get that info from? Is that sure?
