XBMC like system app on Android 4.2.2 - liuxiaoyao - 2014-01-02 Dear guys: I'm building a custom rom for UHost2 device and I'm facing the following problem: If I manually install XBMC from apk file it copies apk to /data/app/ and libraries to /data/data/org.xbmc/xbmc/lib Everything runs fine But if I add it to the /system/apps and add xbmc's lib to /system/lib then it doesn't copy lib files to /data/data/org.xbmc/xbmc/lib although it creates the folder. if i try to start it it runs for the first time quite slow and than crashes. and after that it crashes every time I'm trying to run it Am I doing something wrong? Is it actually possible to add XBMC to the firmware so I would have XBMC pre-installed after factory reset? The device is RK3066 SoC, 1GB ram, 4GB internal storage. Then I run XBMC apk (installed as system) it does crash dalvik VM with this logcat error: I/ActivityManager( 642): START u0 {act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] flg=0x10200000 cmp=org.xbmc.xbmc/.Main bnds=[34,200][130,296]} from pid 1860 D/AndroidRuntime( 1860): Shutting down VM W/dalvikvm( 1860): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x40b9d930) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): FATAL EXCEPTION: main E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{org.xbmc.xbmc/org.xbmc.xbmc.Main}: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to find native library: xbmc E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2180) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2230) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$600(ActivityThread.java:141) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1234) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5041) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:793) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:560) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to find native library: xbmc E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.NativeActivity.onCreate(NativeActivity.java:181) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at org.xbmc.xbmc.Main.onCreate(Main.java:18) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:5113) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1080) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2144) E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): ... 11 more W/ActivityManager( 642): Force finishing activity org.xbmc.xbmc/.Main I/Process ( 1860): Sending signal.

Pre-loading to /system/apps apks that have shared libs is unsupported in Android. RE: XBMC like system app on Android 4.2.2 - Berto - 2014-02-05 Hi Davilla. how are you? I am trying to install xbmc in /system/app but i have the same problem, it installs very well, but when it starts, first time it runs...but suddenly it appears this error E/AndroidRuntime( 1860): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{org.xbmc.xbmc/org.xbmc.xbmc.Main}: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to find native library: xbmc i tried to copy all xbmc libraries in /system/lib but it failes again. So, let me ask you......is it possible to install xbmc as system/app? if not, is there any solution to do it and to install it by default in my system although not in /system folder? Thank you very much! Berto RE: XBMC like system app on Android 4.2.2 - davilla - 2014-02-05 "Pre-loading to /system/apps apks that have shared libs is unsupported in Android", that means, Android as designed and written by Google, cannot preload an apk that uses a native activity. You might be able to hack up the firmware to make it work. But there might be unintended side effects. |
