ARM TechCon Application Software Developer Forum

Note: This was originally posted on 23rd October 2012 at http://forums.arm.com

If you're a developer who attended our SV Android Meetup:
http://www.svandroid...vents/85444922/

Or any of our show presentations or booth activities, including software developer office hours, and would like to further discuss ARM technologies, tools and open source projects publicly, this is our forum.

I'd like any developers who have used the giveaway development platforms to either do performance analysis (with Streamline and Gator, Native debugging) or utilize other ARM technologies (Mali software tools , NEON, Ne10 or other open source projects like OpenMax or Linaro) to improve their application performance or battery life to share their stories here or with me directly. We'd be happy to do a case study or blog about your success with these tools or demo them at future developer events.

I received a lot of great feedback on my presentation at the meetup and the show floor theater so I'm sharing my presentation here.

Thanks,
Matt

    Would this thread be a good place to describe how to run the system-on-a-stick given away at the conference? Windows 7 only recognizes the storage on the stick as USB storage -- but doesn't even give it drive letters.

    Also, it is not only the marketing people who would have wanted every mention of 'ndk' in the talk replaced with 'ARM ndk'. Since Android was first with the NDK, unless you so specifically say 'ARM ndk', people still assume a bare mention of 'ndk' means the Android ndk rather than the ARM one -- even at an ARM conference;)

    Hi Matt,

    Yesterday, I opened HDMI stick and connected to my Panasonic TV. Then, I connected an USB mouse to USB port. I connected micro-USB pin to stick and then other pin  of the power cable to USB port of my son's PS3 USB. Then, I went to GAME mode and I was able to see Anroid boot in 15 secs. MY son could not play a  GAME for sometime.

    After boot, I saw Home screen with a Chinese icon. I went to the Settings->Language and changed to US English. I could do that because I had another Android 4.x tablet. I do not  know how else I could have done that.

    Now, I can browse using stick's browser. Still. widgets are Chinese.

    Can I go ahead and  install Google Play JAR onto the stock - let me know?

    By the way, Graphics was stunning  when I played  HTML5 videos I found with Google Search.

    That is my experience with HDMI stick so far.

    Thanks,

    Sunil

    You have to set the default keyboard to english as well. If you want to install other things besides any app you are working on, you can root the device using any number of "SuperSU.zip" packages found on xda developers. I haven't tried that one particularly but the basic steps go:

    [size=2]    1. Put a root package in to the HDMI stick's internal storage[/size][size=2].
    [/size][size=2]    2. Start HDMI stick, click shutdown button, and select recovery mode, then android system is reboot to recovery mode.
    [/size][size=2]    3. At recovery mode, select "apply update from external storage" and use the SuperSU zip.
    [/size][size=2]    4. Select "reboot system now", reboot HDMI stick.[/size]

    [size=2]You could follow these similar steps to install a GApps package if you like. I'd like to see these used as developer tools but understand if you want to install backup software on them or play with software other than Gator and Streamline.
    Cheers,
