  • Androwish troubleshooting

    From Jacob@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 4 07:10:33 2023
    Hello,

    I'm trying to build (on Windows 11) a simple tcl program with Androwish.
    I get the following error when on the "Cleanup & Build" step:

    FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

    * What went wrong:
    Unable to get mutable Windows environment variable map

    * Try:
    Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or
    --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

    * Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

    Anyone used Androwish recently that may be able to point me in the right direction? I have the following Android tools installed:

    Android SDK Built-Tools 34
    NDK
    Android SDK Command line Tools
    Android SDK Platform-Tools

    I also installed JDK 17 and JDK 21.

    I have ANDROID_HOME and JAVA_HOME environment variables pointing to the
    install locations above.

    I'm a novice here. I was able to build things successively a couple
    years ago, but since have a new computer and I'm not sure what may have
    changed (other than newer versions of Android).

    Thanks,

    Jacob

    Small update here. I realized JDK "1.7" refers to JDK7, not JDK 17.
    Anyways, made some progress but now stuck again. I also changed the build.gradle file to reference mavenCentral repository instead of
    jCentral.The current error is:

    Thank you for sharing Harald. I actually did see your page on the wiki.
    I was able to build from your steps (I think mavenCentral change was
    still needed), but the Android version was too low for my phone. Then
    when going to a new Android version it appeared I needed JDK 17.

    I was then ultimately able to build the project by using JDK 17, Gradle 8.2.1, com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.1.1, and mavenCentral
    repository. However, it still does not run on my phone. I believe
    Android 14 (API 34) is 64-bit and perhaps Androidwish is not compatible.
    I would love to hear if anyone else has had luck building on newer
    Android phones.

    Jacob,
    you get a warning once when starting, but then it runs correctly.
    You have some features removed (like reading the serial number).
    But perhaps, my phone (actually industrial bar-code readers) are not
    current enough.

    Christian ones stated, that he does not want to modernize the whole
    build and does not want to switch to 64 bit.
    I hope, this changes one day. First, let get 9.0 out of the door.

    Take care,
    Harald

    Thank you for sharing Harald. I actually did see your page on the
    wiki. I was able to build from your steps (I think mavenCentral change
    was still needed), but the Android version was too low for my phone.
    Then when going to a new Android version it appeared I needed JDK 17.

    I was then ultimately able to build the project by using JDK 17,
    Gradle 8.2.1, com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.1.1, and mavenCentral
    repository. However, it still does not run on my phone. I believe
    Android 14 (API 34) is 64-bit and perhaps Androidwish is not
    compatible. I would love to hear if anyone else has had luck building
    on newer Android phones.

    Jacob,
    you get a warning once when starting, but then it runs correctly.
    You have some features removed (like reading the serial number).
    But perhaps, my phone (actually industrial bar-code readers) are not
    current enough.

    Christian ones stated, that he does not want to modernize the whole
    build and does not want to switch to 64 bit.
    I hope, this changes one day. First, let get 9.0 out of the door.

    Take care,
    Harald

    Harald,

    On my phone (Samsung Z Flip 5 with Android 14), the application installs
    then a message pops up saying it's not compatible (same if I open the
    signed apk on the androwish website). When building with the newer build
    tools that match my version, it just opens and immediately closes. Unfortunately I don't have much control over the version number of the
    android software.

    Noted about switching to 64 bit. Hopefully one day soon...

    Thanks,

    Jacob

    a recent test version isn't that far away and can be found in
    the LUCK download section. The AndroWish64-debug.apk there has
    support for the armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a, and x86_64 architectures.
    It is here: http://www.ch-werner.de/LUCK/

    As always, YMMV. You might even brew your new AndroWish SDK from
    it by gradually replacing pieces.

    Christian,

    Thank you for sharing the update, happy to hear about the progress! The
    64-bit apk you've uploaded, for what android version is that built?

    Thanks,

    Christian,

    Noted. FYI Android now blocks installation of apps built with lower
    build targets (rather than just providing a warning like before). I was
    able to get the 64-bit apk working on my Android 14 phone (API 34) by using:

    adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block AndroWish64-debug.apk

    Thanks,

    Jacob,
    great ! May I ask you to author a wiki page on all your findings.
    Christian may imports them to Androwish when they are ready.

    Thank you all,

    Thanks for the info, interesting. Now, ten years later, this seems
    to force me to add another build environment in order to support
    the current and future devices of the day. So although AndroWish
    is capable of running on devices with Android 2.3 all below
    Android 14 is considered scrap metal apparently. Or must be
    extra maintained by preserving extra old build environments
    for lower Android versions. Both alternatives seem pretty
    contraindicative in our modern times of soaring sustainability.
