  • AFAIK, 2.2 also requires 64-bit Ubuntu machines, otherwise it will throw lost of exceptions. I encountered the same when I was working with it. Commented Jan 31, 2011 at 10:24

Here is an explanation of what is happening to the froyo branch and how to workaround the problem:

If you want to look for the appropriate tag to check out exact code branch, try this:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+refs

So looking at the list, the branch that you should try would be: android-2.2.2_r1

This one worked for me.

repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-2.2_r1.1

I guess r1.1 is the release branch. can someone affirm this?
