Hi! Did anyone tried booting Ubuntu 10.10 in your Nexus S this way??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962023
I tried booting it but I can't, it says it will boot but it doesn't respond, is it compatible? Anyone got success with this? Thanks!!
NOTE: YOU NEED SPEEDMOD KERNEL FOR THE GALAXY S FOR THIS TO BOOT
i think thats the problem...
Do you think so? But this kernel is not used only to increment the speed of the phone so that it can handle this version of Ubuntu?? I think the Nexus S is quite fast to handle this! As I'm not a developer I don't know it... I'll keep investigating, thanks!!
i have tried this like 2 months ago its not so hard to do and works pretty good on Nexus S but you will need an on screen keyboard because the one i installed had some keyboard issue with VNC..also as far as i now CM7 rom doesnt support this you can use stock rom though..
you can use the guide (and the iso) @ nexusonehacks.
i currently use this script to launch pastebin.com / F1ULPVYw
and
Code:
if [ ! -f /.lockterm ];
then
export USER=root
cd /
rm -r -f tmp
mkdir tmp
cd /
vncserver -geometry 800x480
touch /.lockterm
fi
just to avoid a 2nd launch of vncserver.
You should have to change loop5 to loopN (N=7,8,9,...) if the script fails.
I have downloaded the sources for the goldfish kernel and built it after which I cd into my downloaded AOSP directory and ran build/envsetup.sh and lunch selecting full-eng as my option. At this stage, $ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT seems to be correct. I then ran "emulator -kernel ~/android-kernel/goldfish/arch/arm/boot/zImage -show-kernel -verbose @CustomAndroid-4.0.3-L15" within the same directory and it ran until this point where it hangs indefinitely:
emulator: autoconfig: -scale 0.737705

Any ideas what went wrong?
Ok I realized that I was building a 2.6 kernel for ICS which needs a 3.0 kernel but when I download either the 3.0 kernel or 3.4 kernel, there isn't a goldfish_defconfig, does anyone know how do I build the kernel for use with the emulator?

wow, i'm stuck here mate. To be honest i would suggest going back to a rom that you could install and run, without a problem.
I created cyanogenmod 9 rom for Manta mid08, but it should work with other tablets with Allwinner/Boxchip A13 SoC.
Rom status: six alpha
Cybrix.pl
Basic functions and hardware:
Sound Works
Headphones Works
Screen Works
Touch Works
HW/3D Works
ADB Works
SDcard Works
Sensors Works
WiFi Works
Additional hardware:
3G Not tested yet
Bluetooth Not tested, after updates
GPS Not tested yet
Keyboard Works
RIL Not tested yet
USB/WIFI Tethering Not tested yet
TODO:
Move to kernel from amery source(temporary solution)
Rewrite whole sunxi implementation in kernel (current source is one big mess, work in Amery tree is only patching not fix issue)
Help rewrite cedarx drivers
Add support for more devices
Fifth alpha should be last alpha release. I will fix hw accelartion, camera, wifi and touchscreen support.
First beta will have new kernel 3.0.39+ and more devices support.
Supported tables:
Manta MID08
MID Epad by LélikTec(In progress)
Apollo 726(In progress)
If your tablet is not on my list, please send me dumps of this files:
Dumps you make with terminal emulator or adb shell:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/nandc of=/sdcard/nandc.img
dd if=/dev/block/nandg of=/sdcard/nandg.img
For mount /dev/block/nanda

sorry i posted in the wrong thread.
ive just ordered one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Capacitive-Allwinner-Processor-Sandwich-MID/dp/B008E4WGKQ will your cm build work on it?
It should work, but you need send me first dumps of /dev/block/nandc /dev/block/nandg and all files from /dev/block/nanda and /system/libs/
Dumps you make with terminal emulator or adb shell:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/nandc of=/sdcard/nandc.img
dd if=/dev/block/nandc of=/sdcard/nandc.img
For mount /dev/block/nanda

Hi! I've tried this rom and it's amazing!
I've the same tablet linked from amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Capacitive-Allwinner-Processor-Sandwich-MID/dp/B008E4WGKQ), or at least look like the same!
I can get CWM work like a charm, and boot without problems...but! The only things that don't work are touchscreen and wifi!
3D acceleration and sounds seems fine! (The camera works neither, but it's not a problem for me)
I don't have the original rom anymore, but i can tell you that it woks without problems with these roms:
http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...eneric-7-a13-android-4-0-4-hyper-edition.html
(And a one i'm uploading now to my dropbox account)
Can you do something for it? If you can get it work it would be awesome!
I know it's not designed for this tablet.. but if you can support it, it would be great!
I've used a mouse and keyboard to test it out! No problems with it!
Cheers, and good work!
(i will upload the dumps of a working rom shortly!)

alot of roms ive tried either have offset screen or no touch (or both) the only one i found that works is offset a few mm
Thanks, I will prepare rom for your tablet, but you can copy this folders:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/nandg of=/sdcard/nandg.img
mkdir -p /sdcard/dump/usr
mkdir -p /sdcard/dump/etc
cp -r /system/usr/icu /sdcard/dump/usr/

Hello WillingMagic, glad to see someone working on the A13. I have got one el cheapo tablet. It is exactly same as shown here (sorry can't post links)
h t t p : / / w w w . uptcn . com / productshow/?951-2-Tablet,PC,MID.html
The tablet works fine with its factory ICS 4.0.3 per se but I was looking into putting cyanogenmod in it.
I tried your recovery and ROM. The recovery works very well. The ROM boots ok, the screen and touch are fine, but no wifi and no auto-rotation.
Secondly, you say 'Bluetooth: Not tested yet'. Does that mean it should work with USB BT dongles? I tried three different dongles but none worked.
Can you please guide me how can I get your rom working on my tablet with all hardware functional and if possible USB BT.
Thanks

Don't forget needs to be installed with livesuit and format first

How to fix wifi:
1.Download hotfix to /sdcard/ (link in first post)
2.Type in terminal or adb shell:
Code:
su
cat /sdcard/hotfix2-alpha4.img > /dev/block/nandc;sync;reboot
Fifth alpha should be last alpha release. I will fix hw accelartion, camera, wifi and touchscreen support.
First beta will have new kernel 3.0.39+ and more devices support.

Not quite sure what you mean but i think with that recovery i didnt have a "go back" option (could of been a different one i flashed a few) so i got this one made for my tablet https://dl.dropbox.com/u/74717476/recovery.img see if this works
---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------
Just re-read what you said if the backup is corrupted or damaged I don't think there is much you can do sorry
Sent from my HTC One X
For recovery I recommend sdcard 4GB(empty) or bigger. If you use smaller sdcard, recovery might not work correctly.
i've tried many firmware that i search through internet..and don't even one compatible for my tablet...
some of them working..but the touchscreen problem..argh..is there any other way??...
how do I check my tablet hardware??...
Followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929712 (used TWRP) and got a message that the device was rooted.
Installed a terminal emulator and ls -l /system/bin/su shows a file.
When I try an install Titanium backup, it says that my device is not rooted.
Appreciate any help/hints

Use the Motochopper method instead of flashing a zip. It is can found in the general section. Search it if you must.

ROM: CROMIX 4.5 DeOdex
Kernel: Hundsbuah's OC Kernel 3.0.5
Theme: Timberwolf's Blues and Jazz Theme
Hello everybody, I am trying to deodex my stock ICS v28 rom.
I deodexed the app and framework folder successfully with the use of dsixda kitchen, signed all apks and copied it to "/sdcard/_ExternalSD/deodexed" folder.
Note: at the time of deodexing I also selected the api level to 15
Now I am pushing to the device using this code:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /system
rm /system/framework/*.odex
rm /system/app/*.odex
busybox cp /sdcard/_ExternalSD/deodexed/app/* /system/app/
busybox cp /sdcard/_ExternalSD/deodexed/framework/* /system/framework/
chmod 644 /system/app/*
chmod 644 /system/framework/*
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /system
sync
reboot
after the phone boots I get a security error
Remember, I dont get any error while executing any code in adb and after pushing I checked through adb that those deodexed apps have been pushed successfully to app and framework folder.
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong, any help apreciated.
NOTE: The help I need is in deodexing and pushing it to the device, I have already restored my /system partition but I am experimenting with this stuff.
Also, I already have wkpark bootloader 1.25 installed
You need kernel with support for deodexed roms.

Thanks very much, I flashed the kernel of OptimusRS's new rom and it booted (obviously deodexed). I never knew that the stock kernel doesn't support deodexed apps.
Thanks again.
Edit: Can u suggest me any other good kernel that supports deodexed rom? and do u know the method to make the stock kernel support deodexed rom?
You´re welcome
regarding the method, I only know about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40595337&postcount=580
I have tried many kernels, but for now I´m on stock kernel from V28 rom with iodak´s OC modules. I think you have nothing to lose if you try them all apart from PH85.
