Use shared libjsoncpp

Save some space in the vendor partition, libjsoncpp is already part of
the VNDK so we can use it.

Cuttlefish Getting Started

Try Cuttlefish

  1. Make sure virtualization with KVM is available.

     grep -c -w "vmx\|svm" /proc/cpuinfo

    This should return a non-zero value. If running on a cloud machine, this may take cloud-vendor-specific steps to enable. For Google Compute Engine specifically, see the GCE guide.

  2. Download, build, and install the host debian package:

    git clone https://github.com/google/android-cuttlefish
cd android-cuttlefish
debuild -i -us -uc -b
sudo dpkg -i ../cuttlefish-common_*_amd64.deb || sudo apt-get install -f
sudo reboot

    The reboot will trigger installing additional kernel modules and applying udev rules.

  3. Go to http://ci.android.com/

  4. Enter a branch name. Start with aosp-master if you don‘t know what you’re looking for

  5. Navigate to aosp_cf_x86_phone and click on userdebug for the latest build

  6. Click on Artifacts

  7. Scroll down to the OTA images. These packages look like aosp_cf_x86_phone-img-xxxxxx.zip -- it will always have img in the name. Download this file

  8. Scroll down to cvd-host_package.tar.gz. You should always download a host package from the same build as your images.

  9. On your local system, combine the packages:

    mkdir cf
cd cf
tar xvf /path/to/cvd-host_package.tar.gz
unzip /path/to/aosp_cf_x86_phone-img-xxxxxx.zip

  10. Launch cuttlefish with:

$ HOME=$PWD ./bin/launch_cvd

  1. Stop cuttlefish with:

$ HOME=$PWD ./bin/stop_cvd

Debug Cuttlefish

You can use adb to debug it, just like a physical device:

$ ./bin/adb -e shell

Launch Viewer

You can use the TightVNC JViewer. Once you have downloaded the TightVNC Java Viewer JAR in a ZIP archive, run it with

$ java -jar tightvnc-jviewer.jar -ScalingFactor=50 -Tunneling=no -host=localhost -port=6444

Click “Connect” and you should see a lock screen!
