Haven't tried it, but all tutorials on the internet about compiling android are for linux. Probably because android is a linux based operation system. I don't think it's possible to compile on windows
Install linux or use the live CD...
well I guess I'll have to install Ubuntu then
Thanks... and any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

Sorry, it's not quite as simple as that. First set up your Linux install, and all necessary tools (check the Android developers site), and then come back and ask where to begin!
any chance by making an htc sense ui custom rom for it?
Custom ROM
Can I also get the custom ROM for SG 551?

[Q] Compiling a kernal module from stage 1

Hi
Could anybody point me in the direction of sourcing, locating and compiling a kernel module please? I have found many guides but they all seem to start halfway in the process ("assuming you have already managed to...", "assuming you are already proficient with...")
I have a cheap Android Chinese TV box. It came without joydev.ko so I can't use it with joypads/sticks, which is a pretty big limitation considering it has 4 usb ports which work fine with keyboards, mice and webcams.
I already have an Eclipse environemt set up which I use for Java/Android development but I've never dabbled with anything like this before.
I guess the steps required are something like this:
Locate source code for my particular Android version (Android 4.2.2, Kernel 3.3.0) - where do I do that? Do I need the entire source or can I just download and compile the module by itself?
Set up the cross compiler - is this a standard thing, or does it depend on my hardware? My chipset is an Allwinner A20 ARM Cortex-A7(Dual Core)
Compile the module.
So, have I got the steps right? If not, please correct me. If so.... how do I go about doing the above?

[Q] Compiling for/on Android

Hi,
I own a Galaxy Ace 2 running CyanogenMod, with the drivers/firmware from http://bcmon.blogspot.be/ I have working monitor mode/injection.
Included in the package are amongst other applications airodump-ng, aireplay-ng, ...
I wanted to be able to use mdk3 (http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/) for testing purposes on my phone.
What is the easiest way to compile this (and in the future other) C applications for my phone?
1) Set up a cross-compiling toolchain for Android (Seems pretty difficult, need to re-write Makefiles,...)
2) Compile it on the phone itself (I saw you can chroot ubuntu on Android, so maybe compile it there, and copy the binaries over?)
3) Another way?
Thanks!
I also want one But I don't know how to compile
