Followings are my operations to start Linaro-android in Fastmodel：
First, download and build linaro-android
（1）Download “linaro_android_build_cmds.sh” from http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/vexpress-linaro-13.09-r…
（2）Comment out the last two lines in script corresponding to the building of android
#. build/envsetup.sh
#make -j${CPUS} boottarball systemtarball userdatatarball
（3）Run the Script to download "vexpress-linaro-13.09-release"
（4）Remove the folder "native-toolchain" exist in source code
（5）Uncomment out the last two lines in script corresponding to the building of android
. build/envsetup.sh
make -j${CPUS} boottarball systemtarball userdatatarball
（6）Run the script "linaro_android_build_cmds.sh" to build android
Here ,in <android directory>/out/target/product/vexpress/ appear： boot.tar.bz2 、system.tar.bz2 、userdata.tar.bz2
Second，create an SD card image
linaro-android-media-create --iamge-file mmc.bin --image-size 2000M --dev vexpress --system system.tar.bz2 --boot boot.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2
Third，boot linaro-android in Fastmodel
（1）start Fastmodel
（2）Load project:FastModelsPortfolio_8.3/examples/FVP_VE/Build_Cortex-A15x1/FVP_VE_Cortex-A15x1.sgproj
（3）Debug
Click "OK"
About the above step,the parameter settings are:
motherboard.smsc_91c111.enabled=1 motherboard.hostbridge.userNetworking=1
motherboard.mmc.p_mmc_file=/home/muzhen/files/mmc.bin cluster.cpu0.semihosting-cmd_line="--kernel /home/muzhen/files/movetoolchain/boot/uImage --dtb /home/muzhen/files/movetoolchain/boot/rtsm/rtsm_ve-ca15x1.dtb --initrd /home/muzhen/files/movetoolchain/boot/uInitrd -- console=tty0 console=ttyAMA0,38400n8 rootwait ro init=/init androidboot.console=ttyAMA0"
Click "OK" , then "Run" ,the following is result:
But the question is when I grap mouse in CLCD ,I cannot find mouse in it . I cannot do any operation . So look forward to your reply about this problem.
Thanks a lot!
I am using the debian wheezy to develop the android porting ,so I can
not use the ppa to install the linaro-image-tools . I am going to get
the linaro-image-tools source .Now , I find two ways : one is "bzr
branch lp:linaro-image-tools " and the other is on the web
http://git.linaro.org/infrastructure/linaro-image-tools.git . whatis the
difference between the two ?
I execute "linaro_android_build_cmds.sh" to download "vexpress-linaro-13.09-release" code and build it .
Now the case is: code is downloaded successfully , but when build android code ,there is error with it.

I donot know how to solve it, Look forward to your reply.
Now,I have download "vexpress-linaro-13.09-release",next I want to build it.But I donot want to rebuild "native-toolchain",can I use the toolchain from "http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.7-2013.09" instead of it ? The followings are my operations:
1. download the toolchain from "http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.7-2013.09"
2. mv the toolchain to "<android code directory>/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/" , then "tar xvf android-toolchain-eabi-4.7-2013.09-x86.tar.bz2"
3. gedit <android code directory>/native-toolchain/Android.mk
comment out the two lines:
native-toolchain: $(GCC_FILE_NAME)
$(GCC_FILE_NAME): $(TARGET_CRTBEGIN_DYNAMIC_O) $(TARGET_CRTEND_O) / $(TARGET_OUT_SHARED_LIBRARIES)/libm.so $(TARGET_OUT_SHARED_LIBRARIES)/libc.so / $(TARGET_OUT_SHARED_LIBRARIES)/libdl.so $(TARGET_OUT_SHARED_LIBRARIES)/libstlport.so
4. gedit "linaro_android_build_cmds.sh"
modify line:export TARGET_TOOLS_PREFIX=prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86... to
export TARGET_TOOLS_PREFIX=prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/android-toolchain-eabi/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-
5 . build/envsetup.sh
make boottarball systemtarball userdatatarball
so is it right to build the code with a prebuild toolchain ? Looking forward to your answer.
Hi Vishal,
When launching the Browser on Samsung Arndale board to show the default
Google web page, a pop-up window says:
Security warning
There are problems with the security certificate for this site.
It can be skipped by clicking "Continue" button though.
In logcat, I could see lots of following error messages:
Failed to find provider info for com.google.settings
This issue doesn't exist on ARM Versatile Express A9 Android.
The build I'm using for Samsung Arndale is #386:
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/linux-linaro-arndal…
FYI.
Thanks.
Best Regards
Botao Sun
