Could someone please test if this works on Replicant?

Added by Sarah Scarlett over 8 years ago

Long story short, I can't afford an android device to put replicant on so I can't test the app I wrote with replicant in mind.

If someone could please tell me if this:

https://notabug.org/2112/OuiWee

works on replicant it’d be greatly appreciated.

It works on my friends android and I'm 99.9% sure it will work on replicant too, but I want to be sure.

TIA :)

P.S. Even though it's got the android sdk, I got that through kivy buildozer...so I didn't agree to anything.

Ah, ok then :( I'll change the read me file and description for now but I'm not going to be happy until I can also say "for Replicant". Thank you so much for testing :)

could you use a emulator for testing?

There's a replicant emulator?!?! Is it Free software? Where? Yes please! :)
I know there's an android one in their sdk but I can't access it because I'm just using the stuff kivy buildozer pulled. I'm using buildozer because a)I really can't computer (as evidenced by what I just passed off as 'code';)) and b)at no point does buildozer ask you to agree to any sort of google tomfoolery (it just pulls and adds all the 'y's for you). I'm gonna start saving up for a device just to make stuff for replicant on, and I was, but...I just...well...I just bought an awesome heated jacket is the truth :0

i was referring to the android emulator with the sdk

the two cheapest devices that are can run the latest Replicant version
are the Galaxy S I9000
and The Nexus S (I902x)

but the Nexus S would be preferred as it dose not have bad modem isolation

Ah, ok, thanks for the shopping tip:)I was thinking about this at work last night and I guess it was naive of me to translate and package using kivy tools aimed at android and expect it to just work on replicant too. While I love how easy buildozer was to use, there's no replicant target so I guess I'm just going to have to buckle down and learn how to do things the hard way. This is going to take a while. Thanks for all your help :)
