aol,
Just wondering which Google API's are required for RaceChrono to function. Still holding out hope I can get RaceChrono to function on my Blackberry Playbook. You stated somewhere that the Google Maps api is required, any others? Or just vanilla Android beyond that API.

I actually plan to do a "black screen" map feature, which wouldn't require Google Maps (neither would it require 3g data, which is the reason I'm doing it).
Unfortunately in my case I believe it is the NDK requirements that is stopping the app from functioning on my device (Playbook). I was hoping it was an API thing which would let me install different frameworks and try and get RaceChrono to work, I don't think I can get around the NDK requirement however.
Thanks aol, it may not work on my Playbook (which was a long shot anyways) but I can still use it in Android and Windows Mobile.
Download these two files:
http://daniduke.bplaced.net/files/com.google.android.maps.jar
http://daniduke.bplaced.net/files/com.google.android.maps.xml
Make sure your device is rooted and is is connected via USB-debug.
upload the two files with adb:
D:\>adb push com.google.android.maps.jar /sdcard/com.google.android.maps.jar
D:\>adb push com.google.android.maps.xml /sdcard/com.google.android.maps.xml
connect to device shell and move the files to the correct folders:
D:\>adb shell
#su
#cat /sdcard/com.google.android.maps.xml > /system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml
#cat /sdcard/com.google.android.maps.jar > /system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar
restart device and reinstall RaceChrono
good luck!
Thanks for the help!
A quick search of my device shows I have those two files at the mentioned locations.
The Blackberry Playbook is unique and doesn't have a full Android version, and although I do have Google Maps installed and (mostly) working thanks to Root access, I am apparently still missing some libraries required.
If I can figure out which other libraries are needed I can potentially side load the files, possibly.
