micro:bit Android application

Build instructions

• Install needed tools to build the project:

  • Android SDK

  • Gradle (Minimum version 4.6+)

• Fetch submodules git submodule update --init --recursive

• Go to root directory and run gradle assembleDebug. After build is finished, apk file can be found under ~/app/build/outputs/apk/app-debug.apk

• Or run gradle installDebug to build and install app on plugged android device

Libraries

• Android-DFU-Library
• android-partial-flashing-lib
• android-gif-drawable

Potential Pitfalls

If Gradle is unable to find the correct Android SDK, check the SDK install location is correctly set on the path. You should have a ENV variable ANDROID_SDK_ROOT pointing to the SDKs location.
