Course Overview
Explore Android Open Source Project and design powerful systems using Android 11
Hi,
My name is Mustafa Ozcelikors, a Linux & Android Engineer with more than +7 years of experience working in automotive, who have won Google SOC event in 2017. Here comes a unique beginner to intermediate course that is dedicated to teach Android Open Source Project and Embedded Android concepts to a larger audience.
Visual Embedded Android Training is a unique course in the way that I use slideshows, pen and canvas for theoretical subjects, whereas makes hands-on examples for the practical subjects. I have mastered this technique over the years, teaching my colleagues at work, teaching on Youtube, and now I have decided to move on to Udemy to reach larger audience.
Theoretical subjects are carefully planned and almost for every important subject, multiple block diagrams have been created for better understanding. Almost every figure, schematic, drawing comes from years of experience in the field, not from the internet or from any book. In practical subjects we take a deep dive in exploring AOSP directories and open up a terminal to achieve things within it.
At the end of the course we together will have a custom Android with custom launcher and custom theme, with integrated AIDL service and test application.
You are in this now for the following great content:
Understand embedded Android and Linux software stacks
Get around with Android 11 source code and Soong (Android.bp) build system
Use ASUS Tinkerboard 2 and run Android 11 on it , completely from the source.
Create AIDL interfaces, native C++ Android services, create test applications
Port existing Android Java applications to Soong (Android.bp build system
Understand AOSP folder layout, partitions
Understand and work with SELinux policies
Flash images confidently using fastboot tool
Talk to embedded device confidently using adb tool
Run CTS tests
Log and dump Android system information
Thank you!!
Kindly yours,
Mustafa

I lacked knowledge about AOSP, especially the part about drivers and kernels, and this course helped me to grasp that too and fill the missing puzzle. With practical experience the lecturer passed his knowledge with ease.

Highly recommended. A good AOSP instructor is hard to find before purchasing this course. I was watching YouTube videos provided by the same instructor, and I was really impressed with the content that he put on that channel, which made me decide to buy this.
