Are there any hardware debuggers for Android, as the software debugger just isn't cutting it as my computer sucks... I'm working with specific hardware but the developer program is still fledgling and they don't have many resources out for their devs yet :p
:shrug: virtual. machine.
those who can't make, mod
Depends on what you are trying to do. Are you trying to debug the OS itself, an app, or?
No Andoird device I know has a true hardware debugger, but you can use gdb + gdbserver with some hackery, and I believe dalvik has its own debugger (though most of my Android experience is OS hacking, and not app hacking; if I need to debug, I usually resort to abusing logcat/dmesg.)
The software debugger is NOT good, I agree, and like NCommander, I usually end up resorting to dmesg and logcat.
Hmm, I just now messed with some things, and I've got my nook set up with Android Debug Bridge. Took some work but I'm happy with the results. If anyone is trying to work with Android, just root whatever device it is, and hope it has development options.
