how does android interact with the wireless chip
i think this is the way we should be going

Code:
Enable WIFI:
- adb root
- adb shell
- touch /data/local/userinit.sh
- vi /data/local/userinit.sh and put the following lines

Hi
I'm Trying to install it and it can't boot.
These are the steps that I have done:
* from ICS V28D (for p920) clean installation, enter into recovery TWRP and perform Factory Reset. Wiped cache and dalvik-cache too.
* flashed the frist file.
* flashed the preinstalled programs and the shell (third link)
* Reboot.
Appears a grey LG Logo and then, "rainbow" like CM10. Then turns black, and phone turns off.
I have booted into fastboot mode and installed TWRP recovery (it disapears) and flashed the first zip one more time. The problem persists.
I think that the main problem could be the initial ICS version. You says than the initial version is ICS for SU760 and the mine is for P920. someone knows if that ICS versions have a diferent partition schema? could it be the problem?
Thanks in advance and great job! I was trying to do but I wasn't be able to compile it successfully.
Nest.

That's exactly the problem the quantal flash requires more than 1.2GB of userdata storage to flash. V28B has 1GB of userdata storage allocated whereas SU760 has 2GB.

In thread is mentioned that you must be on su760 ics or you have to make a second partition on external ad card with atleast 2gig then flash the p920 with the modified boot.img
The problem is that the ubuntu quantal image needs extracted about 1.5 gig and the gb and p920 ics partition table has only 1 gig(su760 partition table got 2gig)

Just flash the zip of the second link, and then, the zip of the third.
then restart
It works for me installing over the SU760 port for optimus 3D on internal SDCARD. Now, when I try to edit the ubuntu-sessions file to fix screen, vi shows strange characters.

The best way is to reduce that zip file before installing. Open the quantal zip with winrar or 7z and delete files from /binary/casper/filesystem.dir/home/phablet/Videos/
and
/binary/casper/filesystem.dir/home/phablet/Pictures/

all of these files can be restore from leaked RUU(But may be crash the system)
HOWTO extract file from DesireHD leak RUU 2.15:
run RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.1_Radio_12.21.60.12_26.02.00.09_M_test_148662.exe in Windows box.Then some dialog appear(which include a 'next' button), look for your windows' temp dir, search the newest dir created by RUU, then copy rom.zip(about 277M) to another dir(or RUU will delete it automaticly).
send this rom.zip to Linux box,
in Linux box, unzip rom.zip, then
Code:
mkdir system
mount -o loop,ro system.img system
all files in system dir. you can simply copy files from it.

Same here. I have everything stored and backed up to my external SD. Thanks to the OP for our first touch recovery. It does need some fine tuning though. Going back to Rogue for now.
Well you know what's wrong just want to say good work
Running fine now. It would be great if it had the micro SD support...
---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------
Spoke too soon... It's rebooting into recovery...
I have Rogue CWM in the system memory and i tried to install over this one and didn't work... it goes back again into recovery. Anybody as any idea on how i can get in the OS? or copy Roach CWM in to the system memory?
Any help would be appreciated...
Since people are so interested in touch recovery and especially any recovery with MicroSD support and /sdcard support, then I wonder if anyone has based their take on this on the working MicroSD/Internal version (as linked to by this):
https://github.com/rburrow87/android_device_asus_tf101_recoveryonly
I am guessing that if you know how to add the touch logic to recovery then you might be able to add very similar logic (nothing is ever the same) to this working version I linked to.
It seems odd that people are developing without using both internal and external storage but all work is appreciated.
Managed to get in the OS but i tried to install Roach and Rogue CWM over this one and it doesn't install... always comes up the same...
Any ideas?

After you have flash a different recovery DO NOT use the Boot into system.
Instead cold boot into the OS and use Terminal Emulator to type in the following command.
Type : su (give permission if ask, choose YES). You should get a #
Type : echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0
Type : exit
Type : reboot
Note: Hit "Enter" after each line

[Multiboot][Mountloop][No Pc] Transformazing

Transformazing
This is for tf101 only and i do not take any warranty, means when you destroy your device with that it is your fault !
I did not find this method, nor i developed the kernel, the only thing i did was that i packed the newest jintha kernel into cwm flashable packages and had the idea to install more than
one linux system because i was pretty nerved because i had arch, ubuntu and 13.04 installed and always had to rename one to ubuntu.img. So i put the kernel into 3 (maybe make more)
packages, which look for the files /mnt/sdcard/.linux1, (/dev/mmcblk0p7 rw loop=/media/.linux1.img), .linux2.img and .linux3.img. The point is to hide the files, so you dont see them
for default if you boot to android.
Installation:
Download a armel/armhf image, rename it to .linux1/.linux2,/.linux3 and put it to internal sd(under android /mnt/sdcard or /storage/sdcard0(or 1, roms differ.)(i suggest tubuntu v 1..1, 1.2 has more bugs lol)
Flash the kernel in cwm (linux1 kernel for .linux1, linux2 kernel for .linux2, ... easy, isnt it?
To go back to android flash one of these (http://www.mediafire.com/?labcx60jowrdx), or extract the kernelblob form your rom, or just flashing your kernel should also work(not tested by me).
Any questions?
Changelog:
There is no changelog and there wont be one because i only put the kernels into mountloop packages, but i will try to get a stable 2.6 kernel into a mountloop package(no luck until now)
Advanages of this and other mehods:
Mountloop:More than one Linux os possible
No Pc needed
Easy to remove linux
Easy to give more space to linux/android
Faster to flash
Sl101/tf101g should work too
Option to boot linux from microsd
Olife, tubuntu:Chose os on boot
2.6 kernels and kernels greater than 8 mb possible (only 2.6)
Whats up with these Kernels:
.linux1: 3.1.10: Jintha Kernel, working : Sound, Hw acceleration, Sd, microsd, usb(if a dev is connected at boot), ...
sometimes freezes, use tubuntu v 1.1 and not 1.2
.linux2: 3.1.10: same as above
.linux3: 3.1.10:: dont know which, better touchpad, sound, hw acceleration, sd, microsd, usb(if something is connected at boot), stable, does not work with tubuntu and raring images
.linux4: 2.6.36.4: sound only headphones, no hw acceleration, working with nearly every image
kernelexternal: boots the os installed on micro sd(explained in 2nd post)

The video quality is really bad(really really really bad), so i suggest only watch it if you dont understand it.​
I added the kernels for android 4.2 file system
The .linux .img s have to be placed on /storage/sdcard0 on first user
then flash the packages for your img name (.linux1.img or .linux2.img) and you boot to linux,
flash your kernel (kat, for exmple), to boot back to android
Linux tips and instructions
nstructions for linux:
get flash:
working on both firefox and chromium:
sudo apt-get install gnash gnash-common browser-plugin-gnash
perforance is bad, sound is perfect on youtube many videos can be watched in html5, their performance is way better( full framerate)
Get multitouch working:
On 11.10: sudo apt-get install touchegg and add it to startupapplications
on arch: yaourt -S touchegg (i think xD)
on others: compile touchegg
Put an image to microsd:​(will erase files on sdcard)
dd if=/sdcard/linux.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p1
How to get sound(if not working)​sudo usermod -a -G audio yourusername
sudo chmod -R 777 /dev/snd
enable every dacl and dacr
disable dac and adc companding(if sound is choppy)
How to get network-manager working on systems with wpa supplicant installed(arch, raring, netinstall)
look at your modules: is there 3.1.10-g8c2655b-dirty? if not, i suggest downloading it from here
sudo apt-get install netwrok-manager network-manager-gnome
sudo leafpad /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf: change false to true
sudo leafpad /etc/network/interfaces should look like this:
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
and remove /etc/wpa_supplicant. (sudo pcmanfm or sudo nautilus and then you have a fm with root.)
Mount internal:
sudo mkdir /media/internal
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p7 /media/internal
internal is now on /media/internal, you can select any folder.
Get opengl:
install tegra drivers(find a deb, if in 12.10 you ca just enable it through software-sources.)
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-swrast
How to resize img files:
From another linux image or from a linux pc: (i will show it with image called ubuntu.img)
cd /to/the/folder/of/the/image
e2fsck ubuntu.img -f
resize2fs ubuntu.img 3500M (3500M is new size, M means MB, G means GB...)
e2fsck ubuntu.img
How to get touchpad working:
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-mtrack
and add to xorg.conf this at the end:
Section "InputClass
Identifier "elantech_touchscreen"
Matchproduct "elantech_touchscreen"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "mtrack"
EndSection
set keyboard layout:
add to startup programs this:
setxkbkmap de/en/fr
mount/chroot into an image from an otherinstall programs to an image with no network manager)
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p7 /media/int (mount internal)
sudo mount /media/int/media/.linux123.img /media/int (not linux 123, but .linux1, .linux2...)(now .linux123.img is on /media/int)
(sudo chroot /media/int) (now you are in the image)(internet connection should be there with 2.6 kernel)
Desktop tips:
Lubuntu/lxde:
Pro: The fastest and freakin light
Very customizeable
Beautiful
Easy to use with other components (etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE(or lubuntu)/autostart)
Con:Cant think of anything bad
Xubuntu/xfce4
Pro: Very fast
Costumizeable
Con:I dont Like it
no hw acceleration
xfwm4 didnt work with touch on an image
ugly?
kubuntu/kde4
Pro:Customizable
Looks good
Con:Slow
e17
Pro: touchoptimiced
fast
con: Ugly(download themes)
Not easy to use with other components
ubuntu
Pro: Looks cool
con: Sloooow
gnome: Doesnt work right on our device
gnome-classic/gnome-session-fallback:
Pro:nearly as fast as lxde
supercool look
good with touch and with keyboard
con: cant think of anything bad
plasma-active/kde-plasma: Not tested
I suggest installing sudo apt-get install gnome-session-fallback, it is very fast, volume buttons are working and you can set brightness.(also install gnome-tweak-tool and gnome-themes-standard)
Use Components from other desktops in lxde/xfce:
(to have a supercool looking fast desktop)
add to startupapplications the stuff you want or just run it:
in lxde: /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
in lubuntu:/etc/xdg/lxsession/lubuntu/autostart
in xfce/gnome/kde: i think there is a app for that: startup-applications i think
Docks:
Docky: works best(not working on all images)
Cairo-dock:not that smooth
Avant: not tested
unity-2d-launcher: the default unityy launcher you can see on the left in ubuntu-desktop
Panels:
lxpanel: Highly customizeable, fast, light
unity-2d-panel: love it, it is the top panel of ubuntu
xfce4-panel: little better than lxpanel
Use other Windor-managers in different desktops:
Add to startupapplications too or run te comand.
metacity --replace
openbox --replace
xfwm4 --replace

The screenshots are from whatever image you use, you can see them for example in the tubuntu thread, but i will make some of ubuntu 12.10 or arch( the ones i use) and post them
Btw, anyone knows how to add images to a post? xD
I must be missing something fundamental lol, i downloaded the tubuntu.img in your post, extracted and renamed it to .linux1 then flashed the linux1 mount-loop then restarted, and end up at busybox terminal (every single thing ive tried ends there)
i'll to download a different image and see how it goes.

You are doing it righ, strange...
Is it called .linux1 or .linux1.img? Because right now i am using the linux1 kernel. What happens if you try the linux3 kernel for example?
And: Try to recopy the tubuntu image a second time, maybe it is corrupt(had exactly this problem yesterday xD)
Tell me how it goes
And: what are you talking from left and right?

Sorry my tf101's power buttons broken, and the tab froze inside of cwm6 so had to angrly disasemble my tf101 just to restart it :crying: lol anyway havn't downloaded a new image yet, whats your recommendation? im mainly intreasted in trying these multitouch gestures but also the 3.1 kernel NEVER worked for me anytime i tried to install it, if this works with hwaccelation ill be stoked(youtube etc work well?)
btw i renamed the image ".linux1" without .img @ the end ...ill add it an try
Heres the output messges i get with both images(tried to make it short to save sometime writing it out, also i took a photo of the output with a terrible camera and couldnt the rest of it so ill retry and update)

tegra.0

tegra protected aperture disabled becouse nvmmc..........
if you have the the distro in an .img folder it will slow down becouse if has to work instie that folder, where if you extract the image in your ubuntu distro folder it would run a bit faster, don't know if ou are doing that or not but it is my 50 cent
Awsome work and thank you, i can use current roms and dual boot without thincking about the nightmare of trying to figure out how to nvflash buckup a rom, back one ub, and then see it update.
Can someone make a video tutorial on this? Would be really grateful

Well been trying to get this to work all day, seems the mount loop doesn't work on my tf101 currently (b60 sbk1) i get the same output messages whether then .linux1 image is in /sdcard/ or not. I could be doing something wrong but ive tried soooooo many combinations of things i would have fixed it by mistake lol.
Never mind , its great to see ubuntu getting better and easier for the tf101. Many thanks to transformador and the rest of you guys working on ubuntu:good::good:

Thats exactly the error when i boot it without .linux1.img (yes theres an .img behind it), try to recopy it there.
Suggestions: Delete .linux1.img and copy it there a secound time (do you have it on /sdcard or on another location? has to be /sdcard, it is a symbolic link to /media on mmcblk0p7, but the /media on android is something other)
Try another .img file. Maybe try netinstall? It has an option to enable multitouch , tegra drivers and you can select desktop. (resize it before installing desktop)
Try linux2 kernel and call the image .linux2.img.
If nothing works, i will download the kernel and see what its wrong (would be stupid because i am booting it with EXACTLY the same kernel i uploaded(did not even copy it to another location )
Dont really understand your next post, is it working now or not? XD

The slowdown is minimal, i dont really recognice a speed difference between my mates tubuntu and mymethod.
Tried your suggestions, not working yet although the output messages have changed ill post them up later on. basically tried multiple roms/ recoverys, renamed the .img 1,2,3,4 etc. The last thing i can think of is my partition structures messed up or something from an earlier ubuntu nvflash, ill re-partition and re-try.

Does this method work for you? It is looking for ubuntu.img on /sdcard. It is from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1537566
http://www.mediafire.com/?7f5fpatmgmg01ha
The kernel posted does NOT work with tubuntu, but it is 3.1
Also: you have it on internal, not external, right? has to be on internal

So far ive tried the net installer image and tubuntu(i thought the kernel might be an issue with it) ill try the older tubuntu. Ive tried x3maniac and shaola's versions. x3maniac's didnt do anything(after flashing it just booted into android) and shaola's had simular output messages as yours. And yeah its on /sdcard (internel) although was tempted to try externel but only got a class 4. I appreciate the help mate:good:

Automated NAND Recovery :)

Hi guys just made a Noob friendly or Lazy friendly Nand Recovery script!
which makes the nand recovery process easy
this script is made to run on linux especially Ubuntu! and windows
make sure you are in recovery and mounted /system
just extract the zip files into a folder
and if you get error like 'not enough space' just format /system
For Ubuntu: In Terminal
Code:
chmod 777 runme
./runme
For Windows:
Code:
just run runme_windows.bat
thats it!!
Change Log:
Code:
v1- Initial Release!
v2- Fixed bugs with Windows version! :P
Great work...
