As an experiment I am trying to rebuild some standard android applications and replace them in system/app on the G1. I have been through all the steps to get the source code and build for the dream platform and have built the various .apk files of interest (e.g. AlarmClock.apk, Browser.apk etc)
To put the files on the device I delete the old .apk and .odex files and copy my newly built .apk file on to the device. However when I try to run the application it crashes with the following message.
The application Alarm Clock (process com.android.alarmclock) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I know that replacing the applications like this is possible, because the AutoRotating Browser build works fine when copies over in this manner.
I'm using JF1.31 (RC8)
My initial reaction was that I was not signing the applications properly but having read some posts I think the default built .apk should have the right key already in it.
Another theory I have is that perhaps the applications from the head of the source tree are not compatible with the RC8 (or RC30) Android OS releases. Can anyone tell me how to get the source tree which corresponds to this baseline, I've done some reading around but cannot figure it out. I presume I need to do a repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platofrm/manifest.git -b BASELINE but I can't figure out what BASELINE should be.
Many thanks in advance for any help you can give me!!!
