Dear zoli2k, Thank you for your interest and time.
This device is not supposed to have any media related feature. It will not have a touch screen display, keyboard or audio hardware. Is that needed to create a dummy binder interface for SurfaceFlinger? I may be wrong, but I was expecting that if I do not need an Android Feature, then I could just remove it from the build. Is that true or such media related services are so tighly coupled to the whole Android Framework? Thank you!
