Any suggest?.
Thanks
Sticky same question
Me and a few others have the same tablet and I've been searching different forums for about 3 months now most notorious of them xda, ppcgeeks, androidtablets.net, and I haven't found someone thats made an android fix for to replace the crappy windows ce 5.0. I was hoping to test out honeycomb : ) anyone??

Sorry... I have no idea about it
Why didn't you get an android tablet in the first place?
You will need to build or get someone to build you a custom kernel specific to your hardware, hence the reason for the "jumping to kernel" error when trying to run haret.
I should be possible if you know what your doing, dependant on hardware specs

I don't think anybody has done it yet, probably because we just got source for the kernel a few days back and are busy trying to work out kernel issues and get the source merged up with more recent patches, etc.
But I imagine this approach used on the Tegra 2 dev kit would work, with the patches from Viewsonic/TNT: http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/workaround-run-ubuntu-now
There's also this stuff: http://www.carrypad.com/2010/10/01/hacked-toshiba-ac100-ubuntu-10-10-is-running/
Again, you'd need to build your own kernel that would work with that.

Dualboot- Android/Ubuntu

Hey,
I've been waiting long enough with installing Ubuntu on my device.. With the bootloader unlocked it's quite possible now, right?
Could someone maybe provide som links with info on the subject?
Cheers.
Worth bumping?
Is it even possible yet? Does it differ that much from installing it on TF201?
I also can't wait to (dual) boot this fine piece of machinery with Ubuntu.
There's a guy that has been quite successful with the Prime -- Google: androiroot mobi ubuntu
His latest Ubuntu-related post was on June 16. I'm not sure if he's done any work on it since.
i'm also VERY interested in this. googled for a while but couldn't find a tutorial suited for a noob like me.
seems like the bootloader has to be modified? and nvflash to create the needed partitions for multiboot?
Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? and if so how did you do it?
Thanks,
I really want to get my tf700 setup in a dual boot set up, but I am a noob when it comes to rooting and modifying android: so I would need a though tutorial.
About Asus TF700
Hello everybody!
Anybody have a progress in dual boot Ubuntu and Android?
Or maybe someone can install Ubuntu or other Linux OS to greatest device ever created by Asus - TF700???
I heard that TF201 already has an Ubuntu ported to it. I think that Ubuntu will provide some functions, that can't provide Android, I really need "Terminal" on my device and Python language, "Synaptic" and many other...
Please do someting that many users all over the world have an opportunity to install Ubuntu on Asus TF700!!!

Dual boot Ubuntu (or other Linux) on TF300T?

Hello all,
I have an interesting problem I would love some information about. I recently bought an Asus Transformer Pad (TF300T). I have already unlocked the bootloader via the Asus utility, flashed TWRP recovery, and rooted it. Now I'm interested in the possibility of dual-booting.
I know that Ubuntu has support for ARM, but I have no experience installing something like that on a device like this. Ideally, I would install Ubuntu (or another Linux distro that supports ARM) to the external SD card and be able to choose at boot time to boot into Ubuntu or into Android. I have seen that some people did something like this on the TF101, but I don't know if that would still work.
If anyone has any ideas about this, I would appreciate hearing them.
Thanks,
Vincent

hi to help to answer your question, if im correct because we do not have much support for building custom kernels to support dual booting into linux, that is a reason why currently there is zero support towards this feature, but there are alternatives, here is a link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...MsImNvbS56cHdlYnNpdGVzLmxpbnV4b25hbmRyb2lkIl0.
this link has an application to install linux on your asus tf300t tablet, it is confirmed to work with stock, but has not been tested on a custom rom, this is using the CHRoot method, aka running next to android requiring a vnc viewer to be used to view it and interact with it. this is not a dual boot, until developers on here can get a JB custom kernel that supports dual booting, there will simply be no possibility, plus we do not even have finished NVFlash files yet to help doing this/ unbrick our tablets. i hope this helped, if it did please hit the thx button below
Dual booting for TF300T
I am currently trying to Dual Boot the TF300T with Ubuntu as well with little success.
I've been going from the TF101 Method...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/ASUS_Eee_Pad_Transformer/How_to_install_Ubuntu/Ubuntu_Install
I have been unable to get Frank'sTools to Run through Windows, or Successfully use OliFE through Linux on my PC.
With OLiFE, Once I enter that I wish to Dualboot in the 2. Flash option, Nothing happens. Though it says it should ask me which system should be default etc. I have gone through the sh files and have tried to tweak them a bit to get the scripts to work, but nothing has worked.
There is a guide here for the TF201 which I am thinking of trying but you have to flash the boot.img whenever you want to switch between the OS by the look of it.
Not sure if it is worth trying though. The main reason why I want Linux is so that I can run DSUME since the current DS Emulator for Android isn't fantastic yet. (Good job so far though guys)
If Anyone has any ideas for how to Dual boot the TF300T, please let me know!!! I don't want to run linux through Android as this would be terrible for emulation
P.S. I am still a complete noob at all of this

[Q] [bada][linux]Flashing/upgrading on linux

Hi!
I'm surprised, nobody asked this already, at least I haven't found it:
Is there a way of flashing/upgrading my GT-S8500 phone a custom firmware/newer stock firmware using linux?
I know, s1 have to use multiloader for flashing, and it's windows only, but maybe some expert can tell me, if there's some alternative, even if it's harder/longer, way of reproducing what multiloader is doing, in linux. Thx in advance!

What exactly are you trying to do. I'm not familiar with the s1 and it's 'multiloader'. Are you referring to dual booting? Sorry if i'm missing your question completely. Some of us at ArcDatum do embedded systems research with ARM boards and have various multibooting devices booting anything from basic stock android stuff to gentoo/arch linux distros both separately and in dual booting environments. We use dev boards like the BeagleBoard and Pandaboards.
If you're trying to flash something weird onto ur phone though, chances are you can't or shouldn't. The only reason why it's safe for us to do it with the dev boards is because the System on a Chip is configured (by pulling specific pins high or low) to boot from the SD card and read the bootloader from there. In the case of most phones, you have locked bootloaders and no way to change that without risking destroying your boot process.
I'm trying to upgrade the factory system of my phone to a newer factory one, or to turkocfw (at first try, i'd be happy with the factory one).
Basically this is done through Kies -but thats windows only- or Multiloader -which is also windows only-, but my laptop has linux on it. I want to know, if there is a way, if I can manually do on linux, what kies and multiloader does on windows.

That sounds a bit odd..I still dont quite understand how linux comes into play here. All the phones I've had deliver official Samsung updates over the air. Have you tried upgrading directly from ur phone?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
It should work under Wine or in a Virtual Machine. If you don't know what these are, you can easily Google them up. A basic concept
Also, for S8500 I would like to recommend http://darkforestgroup.com/forum/ a decent forum for all those older Samsung handsets.
Thats a good point. I havent used wine In a while. Although Id be careful of that, u kno, with the magic wine stuff that they pull off. Might cause some issues and risk ur phone
Edit: vm on the other hand id be more comfortable with

That's the operating system of my notebook. I want to use that computer for upgrading/flashing my phone.

Yes, but the function is 'defect by design', it is FUBAR, that function doesn't work (not only for me, it doesn't work for anyone using the same system on their phone (bada1.2)). I don't know, if it is working on bada 2.0, because I can't upgrade it.

It should, but looks like it doesn't. Wherever I've looked (looks like I cannot post outside links to prove my point, sorry :S), I've found the same advice: "Don't use Kies in a VM!"

Thanx, I had a look at there, but didn't see anything related
So, the question remains the same, if anyone knows, how (exactly) multiloader works, and that working can be reproduced on linux (without multiloader)...
Or can this be achieved using Heimdall?
Bump?

I would like to know if it is possible as well. Otherwise I might test it, but I'm afraid to break my phone

Ok, I can confirm it works using VirtualBox and Win7... No particular things to know, just follow the step as you would do on Windows !
