[Q] The Nexus 7 got official Ubuntu 12.07 support, possible for us too? - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just asking

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation

for -official- ubuntu support you should ask to ubuntu support people, not here.
if you just want linux for the tf300t(G) there's a thread in development section from CB22 about archlinux.
doing the same for ubuntu shouldnt be too difficult, its mostly a question of different packaging and dependancies.

[Q] Ubuntu in SBKv2 devices.

Hi!
So, I have a SBKv2 device, and I'm anscious to get a Linux distro in my tablet. But, I'm no expert in linux, so I need that some os the experts do that first...
My question: There is anyone working on that? Any news about when it is going to be ready?
Thanks
you can always choroot ubuntu using either the choroot ubuntu thread in DEV or the UBUNTU installer app in themes/apps. As for native no you cannot as it requires NVFlash which does not work on SBK2. there are pleanty of other threads on this and i am pretty sure all of your questions have been answered here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1191141
CHROOT is OK, but what would be nice is NVFLASH and the capability to install ANY alternative OS on SBK2 devices... Is there any progress being made? Or is it a problem that no one's looking at it?
Side note: very nice of asus to unlock the bootloader on the transformer prime, but i notice a lack of ability to do this on the TF-101 (SBK 2+ devices)... I'm not a legal expert, but can we start a class action law suit to force them to do this?

You can check the Wiki or the main thread, and set you system up for compiling the source. Unfortunately, Not a lot works yet as far as functionality Device wide.
It's a grand time to learn.

Is Ubuntu Touch also for tablets? I read phones and phablets. I tried to port Firefox OS for the HTC HD2, but failed due to lack of knowledge, incomplete guidance and the phone officially being an WM device.
Since the A51x (and A70x) both are Android devices from it's origin, it should be "easier".
From reading the beginning of the guide I can tell you I can't. I really need a more detailed step-to-step guide to work on something.
I hope there are people out there who are able to port it to the A51x and A70x series.
Edit:
Awesome! A700 owners can try the Ubuntu Touch pre-alpha on their tablets
As far as i can see, the porting guide is for Devices supported by Cyanogenmod, since Ubuntu touch is apparantly based on that. I guess there is some way to port it to the A51x Devices anyway, but i think there would be some major (and probably undocumented) work necessary

ROOT...

Hello everyone,iam new in forum.
Can anyone tell how to root "karbonn A3".Iam trying to use z4root,gingerbreak,universal androot.
But no one work.pls tel how to root my phone.
Thanks in advance...
Purity sure you'll want to post in the Q&A section for your device, or ask a mod to do it for you. Otherwise you'll get helpfully natured people like me that don't know a direct answer.
To help answer your question though; try adding the word 'solved' to the beginning of your search quarry and adding 'similar:website.com' but replace the website with sites like this one. Put the issue or thing you want to know more about between and you'll likely have a good start to your answer. Example:
Solved root epic 4g similar:forum.xda-developers.com
Hope it helps with your task. You can also replace the "similar" part with "site" to search only one site with google. And certainly replace the "epic 4g" part of the example with your device. This is the format I use to learn most new and old things on the web and then I refine it from there. Hit me up if you need more examples and I'll try to help in my free time

Hi again, its been a little wile and figured I'd check up on ya
Did you happen to root your device?
If so can you post links to the guides you used?
I ask because I'm currently starting a project within the main guide I'm writing on XDA (link in signature) to hack and root Android with another Android and a USB cable, no PC required style.

Ubuntu and P3100

Hello. I want to ask is it possible to run ubuntu on SGTab2? I mean pure desktop ubuntu, not mobile one, nor as virtual machine. All instructions I found deals with Nexus 7. The best will be installing Ubuntu as dualboot to Android(I'm using NEXT kernel, it supports dualboot). Does anybody know how to install it? Or maybe somebody even tried it?
Thank you for answer

[Q] Help about start developing

I dunno if this is the right place to post my question. If it isn't, I kindly ask for moving this thread to the right place.
I wanted to start developing apps and baking a CM ROM from the Android Source Code. I use Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and I've heard Ubuntu is the best for development, in CM's Wikia. How should I start developing and which tools should I use?
