Hi all, After the discussion that Serdar kicked off last week, I though I'd try to keep the momentum by getting a cupcake release out and some of the tools in place to get an active community going around the project.
So I'm glad to announce a new Android Cupcake release for Freerunner! It's basically a merge of the Koolu code with Michael Trimarchi's enhancements and a few bug fixes and cosmetic things I've added. You can download it at our new Google Code site: http://android-on-freerunner.googlecode.com/files/android-on-freerunner-cupcake-0.1.zip Installation instructions are the same as for the recent Koolu betas: - Unpack the files on to a FAT formatted SD card. - Insert card into the Freerunner, and boot from NOR menu (hold AUX key, then power) - Choose Boot from SD Card (FAT and ext2) The automated install process should begin. It installs the Qi bootloader, reboots, the kernel, reboots, then installs the system image. *NOTE:* This install process overwrites *everything* on the NAND in the phone, including the bootloader. If this is not what you would like to do, please don't install this release! We'd love to have an SD card installer, if someone would like to contribute it. The Google Code site includes a bug tracker. We've got a couple bugs added already. Please add any others you find. The code for the release is hosted at Gitorious, because Google Code doesn't support Git. The consensus of the discussions here seemed to be that we should have our own mailing list, so I've also created one at Google Groups. The URL to join it is below. I'd really like this to become a real community project, so please help by contributing what you can. Not money, but bug reports (or even better, bug reports with patches), other code, or documentation. We have a wiki at the Google Code site. Anyone who would like to create content for it, please contact me and I'll add you to the project. I hope we can create a vibrant community around Android on Freerunner, and that you can help!
