I have been experimenting lately with some python scripts using the concept of http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/
however i found the interface limiting in lots of places.
you can't run applications on console directly.
you have environmental limitations.
you can't pass command-line arguments.
so while searching for solution i have came across python standalone however this script itself had some shortcommings including path errors.
so i have worked on this and found an optimal solution so here is the customized script.
Code:
[B]PW=`pwd`[/B]
export EXTERNAL_STORAGE=/mnt/sdcard
[B]export LANG=en[/B]
PYTHONPATH=/mnt/sdcard/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/extras/python
PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:/data/data/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/files/python/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload
export PYTHONPATH
export TEMP=/mnt/storage/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/extras/python/tmp
export PYTHON_EGG_CACHE=$TEMP
export PYTHONHOME=/data/data/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/files/python
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/files/python/lib
[B]cd $PW[/B]
/data/data/com.googlecode.pythonforandroid/files/python/bin/python "[email protected]"
These changes allow for following things.
allow us to use this shell script to call python.
allows for command line argument passing.
relative path references are now working
what i have setup at my system is as follows
script is named as py and placed at /system/bin/
chmod 755 /system/bin/py
so now i can naviagate to any folder and just type py followed by script name to execute it.
This should help in quick porting and testing of scripts in android handset, and small name should help in making it easy to work on virtual terminal.
However we cann't undermine the SL4A project coz the project is there to provide interfacing between android and python.
successfully
I will try to keep updating all the python scripts that i have been able to run hope others can also contribute to it.
very interesting
Brings back memories of Symbian...
Very interesting, looking forward to see if you can make something of it!
Thanks a lot!

Hey Guys, I made a program so you can switch your Phone's Hardware Keyboard with just two clicks on the PC.
Instructions:
Connect Phone
Turn on USB Debugging
start Programm
select your desired Language from the List
Hit Button
Finished
Reboot Phone
Works on every rooted Phone.
Its for the Sony Ericsson Default Input Method.
(The Program can only be started if Java 1.6 is installed just double Click it)
Source Code is available in this post too, ..._src.zip
Great idea!
Amazing mate,great idea, and i like it's done on java, will work on ubuntu?

May you provide the sources please?
Or in other words: do you replace some files or is it just the keyprint.xml thingy?
Thanks man, but for me it is easier to change it manually using root explorer, because I never use data cable But it is very useful for many people

What you mean with that? java it's the more portable language, you can make a tool for windows and VERY easily port it to linux, or any OS.
Im sorry but I <3 java, also wtf with "it takes ages" ??
THanks Slade,
I tested it to update my MiniPro to qwerty-br, reboot and it works!
Just to confirm, now instead of SE keyboard I see TalkBack keyboard option...
Look at programs compiled in C/C++, they run really fast, while in java you have to wait some time, until the java virtual machine is loaded
Sure, the cross platforming of java is awesome, but i dont think so much GUI-only people are driving linux on their systems
Hi Slade,
Qwerty-br is definitly different than qwerty-pt!
Example
- 'Ç' is ','
- ',' is '´'
- '´' does not exist
You have all details in the other thread to create a qwerty-pt, but if you need again I can attach it!
Can you please make a qwerty-pt?
Thanks

Not sure what you are asking. For the sdk tools, do you mean the android sdk? If so, follow the instructions on the sdk page. For the images, I assume you mean the boot.img and possibly system.img. You do not open these. If you have a system.img, that means you probably have a shipped rom. Use the kitchen to create working folder from rom, and choose this. It should auto extract the system partition. As for the boot.img, you don't generally need to extract this, but there is an option in the advanced settings of the kitchen. You can change your rom's kernel in the boot.img.

Hey Guys!
First of all a bit of encouragement. The android kitchen sure as hell does not turn you into a rom developer. I decided i wanted to use the kitchen just over 2 weeks ago and run ubuntu in a virtual window. From then I decided I did not like windows anymore so installed linux as my main os and had to learn that (trust me getting the graphics card to work was a chore) I finally got the kitchen working tonight and decided to sign up to xda. Even with my limited knowledge I have been able to help someone on here tonight. Read Read Read and ask questions if you can not find the right answers on the forum. Research pays off eventually. (I now softmod nintendo wiis professionally from learning off a forum!!!!) Remember everyone has to start somewhere even if you are a noob and don't get disheartened if someone says you should have read this this and this. As long as you learn from ur mistake I'm sure people wont mind too much.

Here's my advice for those looking to make their own Android ROMs.. Stop. Write an app or two first, learn how the system works from a developer standpoint. Learn some Java. Read the developer documentation. Learn how to use Git. Then learn how to build AOSP from source. Read the porting guides, and learn how the build system works (the links below have almost everything you could possibly want to know). Now try to put your new found skills to work on enhancing the platform by writing code or making theme overlays. And share! And put that **** on your resume. There is a *ton* of information out there but any kind of "step-by-step rom cooking guide" is going to be a complete fail- it's too broad of a subject.
Android Developer Guides: http://d.android.com
Working with AOSP source: http://source.android.com

The PDK site is absolutely vital if you are going to work on custom ROMs. Read every single page. Twice. Some of the info isn't up to date, but you'll get a really good idea about what goes into actually configuring Android to work on a real device.

What version of Linux are you running? Are you running Ubuntu? I never had much luck using the Android Kitchen in a virtual environment for some reason. When I installed Ubuntu as my main OS, however, that made all the difference. From there you'll also need to make sure you have the Java Developers Kit (JDK) installed or at least open-jdk (Open source alternative) installed in order to run the Android Kitchen or the SDK for that matter.
There's a really good tutorial on how to set up the SDK on Ubuntu 10.10 or Ubuntu 11.04 which is what I had used to set up the SDK on linux for the first time. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921169
I prefer 10.10 just because I'm not huge on Ubuntu's newer Unity interface and my old laptop seems to run 10.10 a lot better than 11.04 or 11.10 but that's another story.
Once you have the SDK setup, you can then run the kitchen accordingly.
I use a tool called Android Utility by tommytomatoe which is essentially a collection of tools for creating custom ROMs, editing apk's, etc. It just happens to also include dsixda's kitchen which is a nice plus. You can download that here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/3303-utility-android-utility-apktooldex2jarsmalimoremac-linuxoct09-2011/
Hope this helps. Good luck, dood!
**Edit** My bad... There's also a thread for Android Utility on XDA also....

The kitchen does a very basic port. It take the zImage (kernel), kernel modules, keyboard, vold.fstab (SD card), and a few other stuff from your original ROM (your device) and transplants it into the ROM you're trying to port from. Also renamed the .rc files to your device codename. Edits the build.prop to your device codename and board model. Ask if you want more or specifics.

cygwin is the best method to run the kitchen through. Don't go through the linux way because it'll be too lengthy. Refer to the original thread.
Also most of the times, if you're porting through different brands such as samsung to htc or motorola to samsung, they have different file structures and only sharing same cpu and gpu specs doesn't mean anything because then the sensors, camera, screen and others are different therefore you'll need to port the same sensor for your phone from your model from somewhere. So don't think it's that easy to port through kitchen.
Kitchen may help devs starting off easy but it gets messy afterwards when you're exposed to the amount of bugs within the rom.

Sorry. Your wrong or might need to re-phrase your statement. The kitchen is written in bash and sh. Which are native to nix not windows. While cygwin is a great alternative while using windows, the best method would be to run the kitchen native. No setting anything up. Just download and go. Any slight issue with your cygwin setup there goes your kitchen, then time spent troubleshooting. My suggestion is using a vm in a nix enviroment. That's the truly best way.
Lengthy? Install the vm. Run the kitchen. Maybe 20 mins. And no more then a few scripts.

You're right, the shell scripts run much faster in Linux than in Cygwin. The other advantage is that you don't need to manually run applications like Ext2Explore to extract files from a ROM; in Linux it automatically mounts the ROM and grabs the files without user interaction.
However, running the kitchen in Virtual Box may be frustrating if you want to move files between Windows and Linux.. the instructions are in the FAQ but requires some work to get it right.
I found the Wubi Linux method the fastest for running the kitchen.

Here's the replies
1. That depends of the device you currently own
2. I use gedit but most people says that gedit and Vim are the best editors for ubuntu.
Also you would need the android sdk (for adb) also you will need jdk. If you want more informations don't be affraid to ask.
EDIT: I forgot to ask which languages you have learned?

You cant decompile any compiled to machine code program, its basic.. You can only get source code or deassemble to unreadable and unusable code.
