CyanogenMod Emulator Update

Posted by on May 16, 2011 10 comments

One of the main reasons people visit this site is to get the latest CyanogenMod-based Android Emulator.

While I can’t say performance has gotten any better (The Android Emulator for Android 2.0 and above sucks, with 3.0 sucking hardcore), I updated the unofficial CyangenMod emulator images to a CyanogenMod 7.1.0 nightly build (Which is based on Android 2.3.4).

You can grab’em at http://nushio.fedorapeople.org/cyanogenmod/repository.xml and if you’ve already set it up, just go to the Android SDK Manager, and check your User Add-ons. It should display the updated package there.

As I’ve said before, this project is entirely unofficial, comes with no support, and will probably haunt you while you sleep. Use at your own comfort.

Try CyanogenMod 7 on the Android Emulator

Posted by on January 10, 2011 12 comments

Update: I’ve updated the emulator image. The instructions are exactly the same, but you get newer goodies.

Disclaimer: I am not allowed to call this image “CyanogenMod” and this does not represent the project’s quality. This is only a kang.
As of this writing, CM7 has yet to hit “alpha” status. However, the following images were compiled using CM7′s Source.

Android Devs and Android Phone Modders should like this. A couple of days ago, Cyanogen added some code that allows us to build emulator images.

I decided to try it out and it works!

So, I decided to create a User Repository you can import.

To install, simply run the Android AVD Manager you’re already familiar with, and under Available Packages, click Add Add-on Site and type:

http://nushio.fedorapeople.org/cyanogenmod/repository.xml

I’ll update the images with official releases once official releases are out (And only if the CyanogenMod Team doesn’t provide emulator images themselves), but for the meantime, you can enjoy the emulator with some CyanogenMod 7 Goodies built in.
