    How did you compile it John? I got the impression that the Android sdk development environment was all Java.

    Extension modules:

    That is going to be quite a challenge, John. The Devices, GUI and graphics environment will differ substantially from regular PCs. Does the NDK allow you access all the Java-based SDK functions?

    John, I used dropbox to move the unzipped file scriba from my pc to my android phone. When I try to run scriba, it will load and try to run and then it won't launch. I then renamed it to scriba.apk, it loads and when it tries to run it then gives and error saying it can't parse it. I don't want to install the android development kit at the moment to just transfer the file to my phone. Hope there is a solution.

    According to this article the dropbox method should work. http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/sma...id-device/3114

    John, thanks for the information. I will launch a terminal window and see if I can get it to run from there. Will report later....

    I installed the terminal emulator. chmod and chown are both available. I tried chmod 0001 scriba.apk but got permission denied as a result. The 'users' command is not available, so I am not sure who the terminal thinks the user is to try to make chown changes.

    John, I got a permission denied with ls -l

    I probably have to root the phone, which is not something I want to do to get true root access. This is just the terminal emulator that I am running.
    ls by itself works, just as a note.

    I used 'dropbox' to get it to the phone. Then I used the 'astro' file manager to move it. Both are free apps.
