Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro (Xperia 2011 line):

Alien Dalvik starts after some script tweaks but the device lacks RAM (512MB, 438MB available, 109,7MB zRAM, ~200MB RAM free after start up). Even with SWAP. Device dies down during the startup of AD.
It has started once (per few dozens of trials, with 512MB SWAP on /sdcard partition) and only was able to show the prompt about installing new app via

Code:

apkd-install app.apk

and install the app. It hanged after starting the application.

Scripts:

platform_envsetup.sh (changed one line):

Code:

EXTERNAL_STORAGE=/sdcard

platform_extraenvsetup.sh:

Code:

ln -s /data_jolla/misc/camera /data/misc/camera

Most probably needs also tweaking the /opt/alien/system/build.prop to set DPI, etc.

At last, i finished rpms for Nexus 4.
Now here are just 2 rpms. You must install aliendalvik first, gapps second.
does not need reboot. After installing aliendalvik just stop aliendalvik service from settings -> android support and install gapps
aliendalvik - https://mega.nz/#!1V0RWBwK!jvyid9IWQ...gt-ZOQEm6kI0pk
gapps - https://mega.nz/#!tY8UEL6T!lx7H0TKCB...CczfF9H7lsSi08

After all installed just restart aliendalvik once. That's it. Tried on my second Nexus 4 with CM 11 SFOS 2.0.5.6 everything worked like a charm on fresh install. On fresh install just run devel-su pkcon update.

Now i'm trying to make google play work on Nexus 5 too.

@matemana: can you check sound/video for the apps i mentioned here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=128

Partial success start aliendalvik on opx, but it does not work properly. Unfortunately you can not install apk jet.

1) Install aliendalvik
2) Termina: mv /etc/media_profile.xml media_profile.xml.bck
3) Termina: /opt/alien/system/script/alien.sh // wait some seconds
4) go to Settings > Android > and push the Start button

maybe someone can something do with it

Interesting. Do you have the same behavior with Nexus 5, CM11? Can you do me a favor: On your Nexus 4 do a backup of your working platform_extraenvsetup.sh and use a complete reduced one like the one mp107 posted for OPX, and check the not well working apps again? Thank you

Do not know about CM11 base Nexus 5. I had installed it but did not try apps. I was stuck at SFOS 1.1.9.28. i quickly reinstalled it. It was so old. I saw how far SFOS has gono from that.
mp107 has posted reduced version for xperia 2011 line. I do not think it will make any change because as you saw on previuos pages i do not had that /vendor folder so it gave me same no such file warning although aliendalvik did work.
I WILL try what you want and report back.

I expected something like that from the very beginning as i had a typo in my own script and it had no impact at all. Thank you.
