Building and running the android-10 emulator

  1. Fetch the code: REPO_INIT_FLAGS="--depth=1" ./config.sh emulator-10
  2. Setup your environment to fetch the custom NDK: export LOCAL_NDK_BASE_URL='ftp://ftp.kaiostech.com/ndk/android-ndk'
  3. Install Gecko dependencies: cd gecko && ./mach bootstrap, choose option 4 (Android Geckoview).
  4. Build: ./build.sh
  5. Run the emulator: source build/envsetup.sh && lunch aosp_arm-userdebug && emulator -writable-system -selinux permissive

Re-building your own NDK

Because it's using a different c++ namespace than the AOSP base, we can't use the prebuilt NDK from Google. If you can't use the one built by KaiOS, here are the steps to build your own:

  1. Download the ndk source: repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b ndk-release-r20
  2. change __ndk to __ in external/libcxx/include/__config:
-#define _LIBCPP_NAMESPACE _LIBCPP_CONCAT(__ndk,_LIBCPP_ABI_VERSION)
+#define _LIBCPP_NAMESPACE _LIBCPP_CONCAT(__,_LIBCPP_ABI_VERSION)
  1. Build the ndk: python ndk/checkbuild.py --no-build-tests
