| In short, RPi version of bmx-ng from bmx-ng.com can work and compile other apps on android devices with arm-based cpu. You'll need rooted device and linux deploy application with ubuntu (i use wily, xenial should work too) installed. BlitzMax folder from archive should be placed in home directory because other places will have problems with permissions, noexec flags and all that stuff. Also i needed to install dependencies from bmx-ng.com site plus libgles2-mesa, libgles2-mesa-dbg and libgles2-mesa-dev packets. My installation was not fresh and had lots of packets already installed, so on fresh installation installing more packets may be needed. Main problem is that graphics doesnt work, app just segfaults on graphics command, though es2gears works. Second problem is that threaded applications can segfault occasionaly, bmk can do that when building modules. P.S. Sorry for my English, this text is probably full of errors |

| Are you having trouble running android NG apps? Try downloading the vanilla version (Blitzmax 1.50) and do the upgrade to NG. https://github.com/bmx-ng/bmx-ng/releases SDL driver only works on android so you have to use Framework sdl.gl2sdlmax2d everytime. At least that works for me. |

| Are you having trouble running android NG apps No, I think he's commenting on the fact that he's managed to get NG running in ARM Linux on devices that would usually run Android. Cool :-) |
