A useful tool to help ROM developers provide OTA updates to their users. It's free to use, you can build from source or use the APK provided.
- Root - Not essential, but you will most likely have this anyway
- A place to store a static manifest XML
- A place to host your ROM
- Some build.prop entries
There are two ways you can use this in your ROM. Manually, or automatically with romhut.com. Romhut is highly recommended, as it will host your files for you, automate the process somewhat and it's free for users and developers.
Be aware, this application is meant for ROM developers. If you are a user wishing to use this application, get in touch with your developer and point them towards this page!
For ROM developers, see here for installing instructions
Anyone is free to use this project in their ROM. I only request that you keep the about page in-tact leaving my credits in there. You don't have to, but it'd be nice if you did.
I'd also appreciate a tag in your post, wherever you publish :)
To build from source via Eclipse, you need to checkout the instructions on building
