Hi all,
the Acer 510 contains the Stockrom, which is rooted and CWM is installed. If I connect the the Tablet via USB with W7, I can see the internal and external SD-Card. If I connect the same tablet under Linux (Suse 11.4), the tablet / filesystem is unknow and could not be mounted
Normaly I see every Android Device under Linux and can mount this one without any problems , so that I 've an access to the SD-Cards.
Does someone has seen the same issue and hopefully has a solution for this one?
Since ICS the protocol used is MTP and linux is not familiar whith it
take a look at this article, it will help you even if it's written fo ubuntu

Tablet doesn't use Mass Storage mode but MTP which you have to setup on your Linux machine.
Ubuntu tutorial (required packages should also work on other distros)
Alternative (I've never heard about this before TBH)
THX !
I'll try it on evening and let you know
Before you proceed in futher steps, did you try connecting the tablet to the Linux machine with USB debugging off? (Win XP for example, cannot use the A510 as MTP if usb debugging is on.)
Even if you get it to work, don't expect somethign good. The Support for MTP is really bad in most Linux distros. probably because MTP is a Microsoft thing. I got it to work once and all i could do was copy small files in already existing folders. Creating folders or copying large files always resulted in a force unmount.
I agree with you that why I only use FTPserver instead now
Simplest alternative to MTP- QtADB, I know it wasn't updated for over a year but worked for me (various 2.1-4.0 firmwares and hardware)

You can't flash the phone under linux..and I don't recommend using a virtual pc app for flashing either as it can hose your phone. I run opensuse on all my machines..I'm actually tethered via usb right now..but I keep a windows laptop around to do all the flashing.

You can flash from the sim card directly.... There is mention of that somewhere.

There's a link for you.
I have flashed my titan many times using windows under virtualbox on pclinuxos. Some distro's have troubles with usb on vmware or virtualbox so you may want to shy away from doing that way. But thats the way I always do it.

You are restoring from a raw image stored on a storage card....that has nothing to do with "flashing under linux".....but I'll agree that it works as I keep an emergency copy of a stable rom on storage card for just that purpose.
I've used XP in virtualbox under Opensuse...I still don't recommend flashing that way but if you are willing to risk it feel free.

Google on "wm5torage"
synce
There is a software called synce. It will require a kernel compile.

I have a Fujitsu P1120 touchscreen netbook. I have been trying to dual boot android with the windows xp that is on there but have had no success. I cannot seem to figure out the right way to put android on the hard drive. It keeps coming up with a grub error for invalid filesystem. I have downloaded liveandroid, android 86x. The main problem that I have is that my device doesn't support booting from usb, booting from network, or any usb external drive. So the only way I can get it to work is to manually install android but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone help me with this please?
i have same problem , i want to install android on fujitsu p1120, but i see installation freezed, now i want to test froyo android

I so happy now.. i found one dvd-rw usb work very fast in the my fujitsu...
Is liteOn Slim USB (have 2 usb) dvd-rw and the bios work..
To put it bluntly you're trying to get your netbooks to do something it isn't intended to do. Those thing are built with the absolute bare minimum to do pretty much nothing more than browse the web, hence "netbook". It's not a full PC. Even the newer ones don't run a full version of Windows 7. Short of knowing how to re-write a BIOS image or finding a modified one and flashing it, which has the risk of perma-bricking your computer.
Волк,
Sorry my bad english..I have a good computer, phone and tablet. However I like to modify my old electronics giving new life to them .... Now for example I'll replace the HDD Fujitsu Lifebook P1120 IDE for SSD and I'll put a PCMCIA card with internal memory to speed up Windows. I installed windows 7 and it is working. So I had to make a modification in winsetup.dll to install.
At the moment I install Android but I am having difficulties.
Hi Installed Ubduntu in my USB drive and booted ubuntu from my USB drive.. After that i created couple of shortcuts in my desktop and installed Real player for playing music.. i shutdown the PC after finishing my work.
But when i booted next time from USB in desktop noting was there and i couldn't find the programs i installed (Realplayer,Vlc)
Anybody can tell me why it is happening?
It sounds like you just installed the apps on the virtual drive and did not actually install it to the device
who can i change the installation location?
And wat about the files which i saved in my desktop?
What you have installed to your USB is the livecd, and not a persistent install. What you currently have now on your USB is the livecd, so you can try it out and install to your PC from the USB drive. There is a way to actually install it to your USB drive persistently. I would post the link here but I don't have enough posts yet, so you have to google
I don't know with which method you created the ubuntu stick. But i recommend doing it with the wizard tool from ubuntu.com.
Universal USB Installer
Screenshot
There you can also add persistence, which is then saving the changes you are making to the live system. Anyhow, for a real productive system i can only suggest to do a full install, instead of running it all from stick.
@Xadro
Thanks for ur response
I installed ubuntu 10.10 in my USB.. and i used universal installer 1.8.3.3 to install ubuntu in my USB.. During the installation i didn't get any option to select the persistent which u showed in the screen short

I think your usb stick is too small try at least 2gb, the bigger the better.
Just been trying this myself with the newest version (1.8.4.5)
With my 1 gb stick i can't select persistance, with my 4 gb stick it gives me up to 2 gb persistence space.
I love ubuntu. However, I haven't installed it. Just usually boot it off of my usb. trying to find uses for it.
@Xadro
I tried with 4GB Perdrive and then i select 1GB persistence.. still whatever the program i installed will not be there once i reboot the PC.

I just wanted to start this thread for anyone who needs help with the s3 on linux whether its mounting sd/mtp or help with heimdall. I use Arch linux and let me tell you mtp is a pain in the butt, I ended up having to use a ftp server, and for my sd card I use a root ap called SG USB MASS STORAGE ENABLER by Mohhamad Abu-Garbeyyeh.

I'm using Ubuntu but there's no way I'm playing with my phone on it - I have a Windows partition just for that sort of thing. Maybe if it weren't my daily driver, I'd be willing to give it a shot but, while I use Linux for just about everything, it's just easier to have a Windows partition for some things. This being one of them.
Hats off to you though - takes guts (& knowledge) I don't have!

A couple of things I have found:
1. While MTP did not work with my Mint 15 system and stock android 4.1.2 on my phone, once I rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and installed cyanogenmod, it worked like a charm.
Before, when I plugged in my phone, I would get multiple error windows saying the MTP system wasn't available. I had to use windows (yuck!) and odin to get root and unlock the bootloader (although I did not try the virtualbox windows until after I had done this). I installed the most recent version of cyanogenmod and now the Mint system recognizes the MTP just fine. No error windows or anything.
2. I was able to get a virtualbox windows machine to recognize the phone, although it required different usb filters for download mode and for typical mtp.
This required going into download mode, selecting the appropriate filter in virtualbox, unplugging the phone, booting up the virtual machine and then replugging the phone. After this, odin recognized the phone. I did not attempt to flash anything further, though, since I had already done so from a windows system.
I think Ubuntu ships with mtp and its libraries now
I used to use arch Linux. Such a fun distro. Then work started using a TS gateway and it started become too much a hassle. Installed Windows 8, no longer fighting the system :screwy:

What do you mean you have a windows partition? I have a laptop that's quad booted with Windows 7, Ubuntu, Fedora, and Pear OS 8. I want to take Windows out of the picture but I need it for things like this. Could you give me more details on this like does it act like a windows system? It'd be much appreciated.

When I switch to "Files" mode, the Mate 8 (A10 128GB version) comes up with some kind of installer named åŽä¸ºæ‰‹æœºåŠ©æ‰‹å®‰è£…å‘导.exe (presumably a proprietary Windows-only file manager).
Is there a way to move files using MTP or (please God) usb storage? Apart from rooting the phone, of course. I could probably put the files on local web server and download with http, if that will let me add mp3's, flacs, and ring tones.
Thanks
Hi
I think this is the hisuite software from huawei
Install it to get driver ,or try to find driver anywere before trying to activate mtp
Thanks for the response!
I already have MTP working fine when I connect my Nexus 4. Shouldn't I be able to use the same MTP driver with the Mate 8?
I don't use Windows and I don't think USB works with wine, so I probably can't use an .exe file at all.
Im not sure if the driver is the same with nexus 4, but i think its the same methode to mount mtp if you use linux
I am on Solus and linux mint and have no issues with mounting the mate 8. Check to see if usb debugging under developer options is ON. You can also check what mode is the usb setting on your device by opening the dialer and dialing: *#*#2846579#*#* look under background settings and open usb port setting and change it to manufacture mode. Good luck!
Thanks for the responses. I tried it on my home Linux machine and it worked fine. Not sure what is up with my work box.
