Android Market on Emulator SDK 1.5

---

Is it possible to run Android Market on SDK 1.5?
It works on 1.1 with installing the 4 files: vending.apk, talk.apk, gtalkservice.apk, setupwizard.apk

anybody knows how to make it work in 1.5?

Thanks

you have to download the google developer phone images (system.img userdata.img) from the HTC site and overwrite them in the emulator image directory (don't remember exactly where it is)

find image files

I can boot the Ion ROM image, but it refuses to use the LAN (emulator pass-through) connection so Marked is not really a possibility after all.

I can use it without any modification

It's the same for me: with the files (recovery.img, system.img and ramdisk.img) from the HTC package, the emulator works well but the network connection is missing. What's your procedure?

I wonder if we can just pull out the proper .apk's and .odex files from the Ion ROM image and install/replace on the stock Cupcake image in the emulator. I did this with the Amazon application but have thus far not been successful with the marked.

I got it to work by doing following:

1) Downlaoded and installed the android SDK.
2) Run the command prompt and go to the tools dir in the SDK.
3) Greated an avd with 1.5 as target with the a default hardware profile. ('android list target' get a list of targets, 'android create avd -n enhanced -t 2' creates the avd as target 2)
4) Download and unzip this image file. update-cm-3.6.5-signed.system.img.zip extracted it and put the system.img in the enhanced.avd folder.
5) Opened the emulator through a project in eclipe. But can be done as command as well 'emulator -avd enhanced'.
6) When android is running i first went to market and it seemed to work fine except that the downloads never started. So i tryed to install the MarketEnabler.apk and everything worked fine.

The system image is a developer image, and loading android on the emulator first time took quite a while.

So finally i can get the apps from Android market on the non-google branded mobile
