2011.681 Nook and KindleFire support

2011.681 “Android: Added Nook and KindleFire support to build scripts.”

Do we need to change/add anything to build.settings or simply re-building with 681 is enough to be compatible with those devices?

Also, while talking about build.settings for Android… Any updates on this?

2011.655 “Android: Added new AndroidManifest.xml customization features to the build.settings file. To be documented and announced later.”

Yes, nice questions. [import]uid: 9058 topic_id: 17750 reply_id: 67689[/import]

Yes, good questions.
And could someone from Ansca comment on how this relates to other open threads regarding Nook development and a “Nook SDK” discussed back in the Spring? [import]uid: 49442 topic_id: 17750 reply_id: 67723[/import]

Will we get the Kindle Fire and Nook Simulators too?

( Maybe they are already there… i didn’t look into the last build)

They have 7" like the Galaxy Tab.
( but it would be nice to have the device optics )

I loaded 681 also ready for nook builds, and it gives the same android 2.2 (only) options as before…

+1 on tell us how to pull the trigger! [import]uid: 9070 topic_id: 17750 reply_id: 67769[/import]

+1

I also want to know the changes available that we have more control over the manifest.xml file.

And… We just pre-ordered a couple of Kindle Fire’s so we can ramp up our efforts with that device… So what does 681 let us do that the other builds did not?

+1 Info needed… maybe this is the “secret feature” from a couple builds back. [import]uid: 18783 topic_id: 17750 reply_id: 67792[/import]

While waiting for an input…

I’ve tested a build and it looks like Android installLocation=“preferExternal” directive in build.settings is not working anymore… Location is set to “auto” in all cases…

@mattchapman I think it’s more related to in-app purchases… :slight_smile: [import]uid: 10478 topic_id: 17750 reply_id: 67818[/import]
