shivajeepandey commented 10 years ago

The application code is not working. Emulator is not showing the application.why??

jrobble commented 10 years ago

This code does not work on the emulator. It requires a physical device with a Broadcom Wi-Fi chip.

shivajeepandey commented 10 years ago

So how can I use this application in mobile phone because it already have WiFi chip but I don't know the vendor?

jrobble commented 10 years ago

Use one of these supported devices:

Or you can compile your own custom kernel for your device, but it's not easy.

shivajeepandey commented 10 years ago

Thanks... Can you tell me the procedure of compiling the kernel...

jrobble commented 10 years ago

It depends on what device you have. I recommend starting with CyanogenMod: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_Guides

shivajeepandey: I think you're looking for a BIG answer for a single line question! Maybe you should start by offering more information, like what device you're using. (manufacturer, model, version, etc...)

As jrobble pointed out, if you end up needing to compile changes to a kernel and it's device drivers, then it would be easier if you could start with a working build and build scripts. If there's a CyanogenMod version available for your device, then you can grab the source for it. CM provides all the build scripts and packaging. You can make your kernel changes and build, then install it on your device. If the CM guys support your device, there will be all kinds of good tutorials on how to flash your CM build to it.
