Also, if rebranding, where can I change package name and strings?

Depends how fast your computer is, all in all around 2-3hours in my experience.

[todayismyluckyday8]

Thanks! I think I made error at first, I was using /$HOME and it was running for 5 hours lol it froze up at a mirror point.

So I did it with $HOME

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Also, the version txt shows 17.6

I hope this guide works

Is it normal for process to appear as being stuck?
I do not want to kill it and restart.

It is stuck, not progressing, from here:

[todayismyluckyday8]

I just killed it then reran make and it picked back up fairly quick since everything up to this point was done

When I build apk by the tutorial from first post so Kodi works fine, but any binnary addon doesn't work.
In log are errors about:

Code:

ERROR: Unable to load ..libpvr.stalker.so" needed or dlopened by "/data/app/org.xbmc.kodi-2/lib/arm64/libkodi.so" is not accessible for the namespace "classloader-namespace"

Edit: I found so all native addons libs (c native libs) are missing and isn't in apk 

Did you ever find a solution for this?

Bump.. I'm stuck in this same situation. I am able to follow guide and build APK, but binary addons are not packaged, I check kodi-krypton/build/addons and no binary addons are present...

Seems the guide is incomplete.

Had anyone found a workaround?

Will these instructions work for the current build?
Basically, could I grab the current master and compile?
I’ve seen stuff about cmake needing to be used, but decent doco on Android seems thin on the ground

[todayismyluckyday8]

I would say it is for 17.6, when I compiled 2 months ago. Follow this guide to a T! Make sure you are using same virtualbox version, image version, etc and you will no issues

[ziggy73701]

Just gone through with trying to compile the current version and get errors in the make... will have to take a proper look but it doesn’t seem happy 😂

[ziggy73701]

Run this against the current build.... several times starting from scratch each time and ends with the same error

Code:

touch /home/darren/kodi-android/tools/depends/target/pcre/Makefile
make -C /home/darren/kodi-android/tools/depends/target pcre

Post the complete output of the second command if it doesn't succeed.

Are you following the guide at https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...ME.android (NDK 16, libc++ STL)?

Post /home/darren/kodi-android/tools/depends/target/pcre/arm-linux-androideabi-21-debug/config.log.

[ziggy73701]

Was trying the guide here for Krypton, given up and moved on to v18 and been using the guide you posted. 

Getting errors with the toolchain now

The backslashes are only required if you split the command into multiple lines, but it looks like you did it in one line. In that case you have to remove them and try again.
