Test your app on real phone!

Josh Guilfoyle has been working on getting a VNC server working for Android and has succeeded! He has created a project called android-vnc which includes a custom kernel to use with the emulator as well as the a binary for fbvncserver ported to Android. The SVN repository has full instructions for compilation of both in case you want to do it yourself.

After you run the emulator using the custom kernel and then install the VNC server into the emulator you can connect to it using a VNC viewer. As you can see on the screenshot here, he is using the .NET VNC Viewer on a Windows Mobile smartphone. This will let you see how your apps might feel on a real phone!

Nice hack Josh!
