building chromium latest release on android - build

Question

I have to build latest release of chromium browser for android.
I am using the following step,
Create a Chromium root directory
mkdir chromium ; cd chromium
Download and export PATH of depot_tools
export PATH=$PATH:~/path/to/depot_tools/
Checked out the source for build 32.0.1665.2
gclient config https://src.chromium.org/chrome/releases/32.0.1665.2
4 The above command create a .gclient file in chromium root directory, and add the target android in .gclient.
target_os = ['android']
To download the initial code:
gclient sync
Install the Dependencies
6.1) cd /path/to/chromium/src
6.2) ./build/install-build-deps.sh
gclient runhooks call GYP to generate your platform-specific files. This should give you a complete source tree
gclient runhooks
Compile :
To build the ARM Android content shell:
1) cd /path/to/chromium/src
2) . build/android/envsetup.sh
3) android_gyp
4) ninja -C out/Release -j10 content_shell_apk
After following the above command i am getting the content_shell.apk which has version chrome/19.77.34.5, i am checking the version of chromium using the link http://whatsmyuseragent.com,
Please help me to build chromium latest version(32.0.1665.2) on android

Answer 1

Content shell does not display correct user agent version in android as well as linux (right now content_shell displays chrome/19.77.34.5).
This seems to be deliberate from src/content/content_shell.gypi
'variables': {
'content_shell_product_name': 'Content Shell',
# The "19" is so that sites that sniff for version think that this is
# something reasonably current; the "77.34.5" is a hint that this isn't a
# standard Chrome.
'content_shell_version': '**19.77.34.5**',
You can always use chromium_testshell which will give correct version (which is currently Chrome/35.0.1879.0).
