Android 0.9Beta SDK can run on A1200

[rehery]

On Aug, 18, Google released 1st Android 0.9Beta SDK which is offical Android release roadmap to Android 1.0. I downloaded this new beta version SDK and kernel.

After retrieving file system from SDK package and making android kernel patch (removed all Goldfish, QEMU-trace, Yaffs2 related changes) based on Linux2.6.25, today I can run Android 0.9Beta on my A1200. But I did not check whether keypad/touch screen can work. Anyway, I can see new SDK android desktop.

Like porint m5-r14 sdk, please note that /dev/binder /dev/log/radio /dev/log/main /dev/log/events should match with the actual dev node. In addition, on 0.9beta SDK, one new ashmem dev node was added. Please change your config to compile this module.

I will upload video to Youtube and new patch on motorolafans.com.

Thanks

hello ,I download you rootfs ,kernel and patchset ,I do all the steps you writed except rebuild the kernel with "console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext2 rootdelay=1 ip=192.168.0.202:192.168.0.200:192.168.0.200:255.255.255.0 debug mem=32M@0xA0000000 mem=16M@0xAC000000" , and I have copy all files to my sdcard card from nfs directory ,when I translate the kernel to my moto e2 ,It cann't mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 and after tried an kernel panic error,isn't the kernel 2.6.25 cann't detect the mmc device ,if it is ,could config it enable on .cofig for kernel?
do anybody know?

Hem, you can look in actual openezx code here at git.openezx.org ( branch is ezx/current ) to see what is different in your mmc driver.
are you sure you got to use the mem= parameters? >androidezx did?
You should not use genblob, btw, it will change the way the phone boots and the .25 kernel you are trying may not apreciate, too.

I have download the via kernel 2.6.27 as the android 1.5 kernel is base on it, when I diff the two kernel ,the result file is 118M ,so big a file ,too many diffrerent between the anroid 1.5 kernel and the via kernel,I want extract the usefull changes, how can I do <
for anothor, could any boby share the pacheset of openexz kernel 2.6.27 ,I try download a snapshot fof the openezx kernel 2.6.27 ,but the net is too slow .

There are android patches based on actual kernel and actual android, for example, look here:
Index of /muromec/image/2009-06-11

>I want extract the usefull changes, how can I do <
look only at the driver you are interested in...i aggree git / topgit are power hangry, and space consuming, but they are here to help developers...
The diffs are too big...118megs, you probably are doing something bad !! even if most of the android gadgect in kernel or optionals modules are not fully loaded, the system should boot...

Firstly, unzip these four zip files(2.6.25 patches.zip ,android_openezx.zip, a1200_keypad_ts_16bpp.zip and android_0.9beta_kernel_core.zip).

Then apply these patches:
1. Apply 2.6.25 patches.zip patch
2. Apply android_openezx.zip patch
3. Apply a1200_keypad_ts_16bpp.zip patch
4. Apply android_0.9beta_kernel_core.zip patch

Well, I try it on e680, can you post a680_keypad.patch and defconfig-e680?
or only post zImage-E680.

thank:
