I have to build latest release of chromium browser for android. I am using the following step,

  1. Create a Chromium root directory mkdir chromium ; cd chromium

  2. Download and export PATH of depot_tools

       export PATH=$PATH:~/path/to/depot_tools/
    
  3. 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']
  1. To download the initial code:

          gclient sync
    
  2. Install the Dependencies

      6.1) cd /path/to/chromium/src
    
      6.2) ./build/install-build-deps.sh
    
  3. 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
