I've tried this and this but it doesn't help. It generates the vendor.img but without my the new changes pulled in.
Following is what I've tried,
I have build a fresh android images successfully.
I have made some changes in aosp/vendor/customer/rootdir/
make vendorimage
It regenerates the vendor.img but flashing that on the device doesn't show my new changes. Looks like I'm missing something.
Appreciate any pointers.

I just copied an Android Studio project into a new folder and want Android Studio to work on the new folder from now on. Unfortunately the layout files are not correctly displayed (I only see a grey layout without any elements) and I get the message that "This project does not use the Gradle build system". I do not undestand why this error occurs. I have not added or deleted anything from the original files and projects. I invalidated the cache and restarted but the problem still exists.
Does anyone have a clue what I have to do? I'd appreciate every comment.
Do you have an idea what the problem might be and what I have to do. I'd be quite thankful for your help as I do not know what to do.
A very common thing that I tend to do is when I need to update a graphic or something in the drawable-nodpi folder, or any other folder for that matter, Android Studio doesn't detect the change so of course when I try to "PUSH" to GitHub it doesn't actually push and just tosses me the "No Changes Detected" message.
Is there a way to push anyways? Just to force a commit on specific files that I want to push because I know for a FACT there was a change and I need it submitted?
Lately I been having to delete it first from within Android Studio, then save the file, then add it to GIT then try a commit, but even this works only 70% of the time and is very annoying.
Perfect Example.... I have a splashimage.png in the drawable folder, I am in Photoshop and I change something then do an override to the splashimage.png with my change, but of course Android Studio doesn't see this as a change so I can't Commit this file to Git or anything.
Are you using external editors like photoshop when editing files? If so, press refresh in Android Studio to make it detect changes in file system. Then it says something has changed and suggest you to commit. Of course you can use command line to add changes anyway and commit without even using Android Studio.
Apparently the item I was looking for was the Synchronize. I just go to the file and Right Click > Synchronize and it then does a check against the last one manually and see's if it was different. Kind of a Refresh like Kuitsi had stated, but its called Synchronize. Also some reason I can't get it to work by just clicking Synchronize next to the SAVE icon at the top under File menu. Not sure why.
Whats your git status after you copy the file? Do you commit the changes, before pushing?
Have the same problem. Resolved.
The multi-root project used to work just fine for years, detecting changes in sub gits, properly pushing/pulling per sub, but not anymore. After some playing with a broken merge, it has stopped working. And that's not a local git repo issue. Cloned it from scratch - same issue. Changes (doesn't matter internal or external) are not detected by the Studio VCS facility, though git from console shows changes, View/Recent Changes shows them, Local Changes tab doesn't show any (single Default changelist).
It looks like something has happened with the VCS roots detection or related settings. Fixed with Preferences/version Control adding missing roots manually. I wish there is an option to rescan a folder or to delete some settings file and have the studio detecting these roots again.
I'm trying to create an icon for our Android app. The png is created and was put into the proper folder of my project so it can be batched with the batch file. Up to now, everything was fine, but I did a new image I wanted to test on the emulator, but now, although the image is in the appropriate folder and my batch file configured correctly (it works for our 2 other identical projects), it won't take the new image and the previous one I tested keeps being batched despite being deleted (the .apk and key generated with the previous image were deleted as well) and also the app was removed from the emulator. Any ideas what could cause this? Also for some odd reason (I haven't touched the code of the project for well over a week), I ended up with this error "LanguageURL cannot be resolved or is not a field", I managed to fix it by copying the same line from the same project. Would that have anything to do with it?
Thanks for the help
Happened to me before... Are you sure the icon fits the specs?
Look here: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_launcher.html
I noticed today in one of my apps that when I loaded a new Intent for a certain few classes(these classes are determined from the click of an object on a Spinner), the layouts appear and they are like the original plain layouts I started with in my project, not the ones I updated and changed to make look better.
I checked all my code and everything, there are no xml files for what it's loading(they are old ones that I had used before). I don't understand why these old, non existing xml files are even loading. It should be loading the current ones I have in my project but it doesn't... Can someone help me with this problem? Thanks
If you're using eclipse, you can try doing Project > Clean, and then Refresh your project. This should make sure you are building with the latest resources.
This question is related to this other one. I have recompiled Android framework and generated a new image. I need to add some classes to the original framework and did it by adding new jars that go into /system/framework. I modified BOOTCLASSPATH to take into account these new jars.
Building the image and flashing to the device does not work. Some optimizations must be run prior to that, but I do not know how that process is.
What building steps should I execute before generating the image or what other alternatives do I have so the extended framework classes are accesible from applications?
I also changed the bootclasspath by changing one of the .mk files, adding my jar to a line that looks like this:
PRODUCT_BOOT_JARS += myjar
Then you just have to make the build and flash to the device just like what you said.
Sometimes it might not be enough and you'd have to erase this file:
./obj/ETC/init.environ.rc_intermediates/init.environ.rc
and then make again.
Hope that helps.
