Hi all,
I want to build Android from source and install it on a device. Simple build runs successfully so that I assume the environment is set up correctly. Question is: Is there a dependency between Android and the kernel version, i.e. do certain Android versions require certain kernel versions? Do I need to update the kernel on a device before installing a new Android version?
Thanks a lot!!

Hi all,
i m trying to using Eclipse Helios for android application.
in my Eclipse Helios the minimum Android Build Target version is Android 1.5.
and according to my history of android version before the version Android 1.5(CupCake) three more versions are launched those are
1. Android Beta,
2. Android 1.0
3. Android 1.1
but in the build target there are not available.
so i want to ask these are not supported or any other reason.
please tell me What minimum version of Android Build Target supported by Eclipse Helios?
i m waiting for ur valuable suggestions.
thanks in advance.
eclipse helios (and by extension the androidsdk) starts at android 1.5
according to wikipedia there was only one device that had android 1 and 1.1 on it. (HTC Dream / G1) so it's safe to assume all other android phones have a newer version
Why? When Google releases a new Android version, why aren't we able to build a stock rom for any compatible device based on a specific criteria. e.g device name.
This is very primary and stupid question but I still need your helping hand.
I am trying on collecting volatile memory form Samsung Galaxy Duos - GT-I8262 running Android version 4.1.2 build version: JZO54K.I8262XXAMG2.
In this link I found kernel source codes for the device, but I am not clear on what to use. There are several source code zip files. For example: GT-I8262_SEA what does stands for?
I think version is build version, none of the match with mine. So using incompatible build version to make loadable kernal module of LiME: Will if destroy my device.
Please help
I'm looking for a flashable kernel that is compiled against Linux kernel version 3.9 or higher.
I need some new drivers included in that branch.
I know one person did it for the Nexus 5 so I'm pretty sure it should be possible on the OPO.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
I'm having HTC Desire 626G+, Running DOT OS 1.1 (Android 7.1.2).
And i'm looking for Oreo (8.0) roms for my device or my chip set (MT6592).
But i'm unable to find one, so i'm going to port a rom for myself!
And i want to know one thing...
Are there any tutorials regarding porting Android of higher version (8.0) to a device having a lower Android version (7.1.2).
All I need is, does the normal 'porting' method applies for the above or not. If not, please suggest me a tutorial.
Thanks in advance!!!
