Hi, Recently I ported Android to OMAP3EVM. I know I'd better write tips on my blog, but I'm kind busy for now. Followings are basic tips how I ported.
1) Kernel http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap-2.6.git;a=summary 2) Android Patch diff -urN vanilla-2.6.27/ cupcake/kernel/ > android.patch lowmemkiller.c needs to be patched manually. - rem = global_page_state(NR_ACTIVE) + global_page_state (NR_INACTIVE); + rem = global_lru_pages(); 3) TLS Apply TLS patches to both bionic and gl_wrapper. http://labs.embinux.org/index.php/Android_Porting_Guide_to_Beagle_Board 4) red tint If your LCD gets red tint issue, apply following patch. http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg06389.html 5) touchscreen Somehow touchscreen was rotated 180 degree. I modified the code like this; input_report_abs(input, ABS_X, pdata->x_max - x + pdata->x_min); input_report_abs(input, ABS_Y, pdata->y_max - y + pdata->y_min); 6) Userland Before running Android system, I installed Debian ARM to USB stick by using debootstrap. Thanks to Debian team, it works beautifully. My Android on OMAP3 is booted by chroot-ing from Debian. Good luck, On 3ζ5ζ₯, εεΎ5:11, abhri <[email protected]> wrote: > hi all > Thanks for the info.
