Rockbox as an Application (Android, WebOS etc.)

[acrox999]

It seems that no builds since the 11th of March worked. The last working build was on the 1st March. Does anyone have a copy of that build? I lost mine since my SD card corrupted and lost most of my files. I'd use another players as an alternative but since I have all of my music in Opus codec, none other than Rockbox is able to play them.

I'd be glad if anyone can help me here.

Edit: Sorry, I should've posted this in Rasher's thread. I mistook this thread for that one.

Do we have any port for Windows phone 8?
Windows phone 8+ uses native programming option and so it would be possible to port android port to Windows phone

According to this site here:

https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL

There's a port of SDL for Windows Phone 8.x. No one's worked on a port to WP8, so feel free to do so.

So I see a fix for a crash in the Android build was committed yesterday:

http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=commit;h=4b181b4

Great stuff Jonathan Gordon! Can't wait to try it out once Rasher's builds start going again.

I'm hoping this will fix the problem I have with Rockbox in that I get random black screen crashes. But also, in more recent builds, I find that audio starts stuttering once the screen goes off. Problems perhaps related to my ROM (Cyanogenmod 11) and ancient phone (Galaxy S[1]).

Yay Rasher's builds have started up again.

Hi guys,

Not sure it's the right place to post this but I couldn't find another...

I have used rb on two Android phones and managed to modify the wps (based on cabbies v2) as much as I was able to make it a better match to my use.

Now that I have been stolen these two devices, I have a new one which runs rockbox fine except...

... I cannot find the wps folder ! All I have is a /rockbox/ folder where I can edit files like config.cfg, shortcut.txt but no subfolders.

I can see /.folder_name/ folders with names starting with a dot so I don't expect a /.rockbox/ folder to be hidden but maybe I'm wrong.

The phone is a Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100
OS is Android 4.1.2 (updated when I got the device)

Any help out there ?

Regards,

Steph

I got the same kind of screen on a Motorola Moto E. That was one of a few reasons for returning it.
Do you know how to fix it ? I understand one has to change fonts but how ?

Also I'd be interested in :
> changing font of the very top line of the main menu screen, the playlist screen, etc (with vol & battery level & time)
> displaying that line on top of the wps

Knowing that would make my choice of players potentially wider.

Returning it?

A few taps here, a few restarts there, and I managed to get the font back to normal.

Where can I download Rockbox for Android?

Try googling "rockbox android builds", comes up referenced in all of the first 3 results.

A few taps & few restarts... couldn't you be a little LOT more specific, or even better put it up on a specific post ?
I guess it would help some users install & try android.

By the way I still returned the phone for other reasons as well :
1> nonsense management of dual sim cards so each time I de-activate the main sim card because I get no network and wish to save battery, dual sim settings get lost and have to be re-entered.
2 > no autofocus so ALL pictures are misfocused.

1 could be sorted by firmware update
2 seems hardware problem so no hope if I'm right

Otherwise a very nice phone for the price.

Ooh look, some android related activity today:

So it appears that using the new ART runtime in Android 4.4.x causes Rockbox to panic when launching. My Nexus 4 is running Cyanogenmod 11-M9 with ART runtime enabled, and Rockbox simply panics on launch.

My Nexus 7 is also running CM11-M9, but I have Dalvik enabled on that device instead of ART. Rockbox still runs like a little champ with Dalvik.

A screenshot is attached (and apologies for the itty bitty system font; that's something that should be seriously updated) to illustrate what I mean. I'll be filing a proper bug report soon.
