Hey there,
does anyone know how to install Plasma Active on the tf101 and can give me (and others too) a little instruction ?
I tried to install it by myself but atm I have no success
greets
x86
I would very much be interested in this, too. This is what i found out already:
- It is possible in general: h**p://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Installation#Install_Plasma_Active_on_ARM_Systems
"The Mer project creates a Plasma Active MMC Image which is build for the armv7hl target devices like the ARM Tegra 2 tablet."
- h**p://merproject.com/
That's how far i've come. Anyone else?
The steps for setting up plama on the TF101 are a little bit of a pain. It requires you to use the CrOS kernel and u-boot to get working properly.

any chance that you give us a short instruction on how to do it ?
or any source for researching purposes ?

+1 for this!
I would love to see plasma active on the Transformer.
Won't the steps be pretty much the same as described for ubuntu in the wiki:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/How_to_install_Ubuntu_on_an_Asus_EEEPad_Transformer
but replacing the ubuntu.img with a plasma active image?
What methods have you tied x86?

The instructions for that are found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202541
But I guess it should be possible to follow one of the ubuntu guides as well just change the image to one of your own choice. At least I will try that when I get my tf101 docking station and basyskom releases a more stable version of their plasma active image.

I let you know if I succeed, but someone else probably does it before me anyway.
Hey guys ! It's now possible by Ubuntu ! I've installed ubuntu on my TF101, with tegra sound etc working on 12.04, and just installed Plasma Active package that installed all environement and now running in my tf 101 !
This is a dev version of MagicCode
wiki
--------------------------------------------------------
Q :What is MagicCode?
A: MagicCode is a software designed by "c0demag1c dev team"to make it possible to run a arm based nativec apk on a mips device.It change the .so in the apk to the mips mode directllllly so that users can run a arm-apk easily. Up to now,we have tried to run a lot of apps and both of them is working well now.
---------------------------------------------------------
Q:Who designed the MagicCode?
Af course.Us,the DEV team"c0demag1c"
---------------------------------------------------------
Q:Using the MagicCode,can all of the arm based app working?
A:No,just as I said,it's still a dev version and there are still work we need to do to fix the MagicCode.So u can only run a few apks which they don't work before on ur mips device.Don't reply us about xxx apk can't work with MagicCode.We'll try to fix it but we can't promise it will be perfect.
----------------------------------------------------------
Q:How can i install the magicCode?
A:It's quite simple,we test our apk on Ainol Novo7 Basic and Knight with 3.2HoneyComb and 4.01 ICS Custom Rom.So,if u have the same device(or other device running the android 3.2 rom),u can install the apk as the other apk such as FaceBook,Twitter. And then,what u need to do is just open the apk and then trun on it,waiting for a few minutes and emjoy urself!.
----------------------------------------------------------
Q: U want to join us?
A: we have receive a few message like this,but to be honest it's just not the right time for more people join our dev team now,quite sorry but thx for understanding.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Q:Hi,shall v paid to u if v want to install this apk into our custom/offical rom?
A:never mind,u can use it freely.MC is an software for free,we have our own donation providet.

【changelog】
MagicCode_1.51_special modifying
This version modify a bug about for "all MIPS-based SoCs". And I removed the v1.51_special.
v1.51_special released!
This is a special version marked for "all MIPS-based SoCs".
U can run it on some other MIPS platform, but there are some Android patches required in order to make it work.
U can send a PM with your e-mail if you are interested.
v1.51 released!
After a long time,we decided to release our newer 1.51 version of the magiccode.
Warning:
If u want to use this version of magiccode,u must use the update.zip in the following website to update your device at first,or it will not work..
#more armv6 app support,such as the famous game"Where's My Water?".
#increase the suitable rate of armv6 app from 50% to 65%(Ingentic‘s Date)
#we will try to work out the armv7 suitable problems in the following days,It need us to rebuild the framework of the magiccode,so maybe a few days is needed,just wait for our good news.
v1.42released!
We just get some ics source from Ingenic,it is quite good for us to finish better MC..
We just fix some bug and using it u can run pvz on ur mips device now!
Thanks for philips and Ingenic provide us the newer mips device and source code.As return,v open ur source to Ingenic BeiJing now!It is quite excited to find our app pre-installed into ingenic offical rom
We fix the support of skype and PvZ in this version..
Since something different between ainol's device and Philips's device..we just build two magiccode for them.
Warning: the v1.42 must be used with the n7k and philips's rom release yesterday.never try it with the old rom.
v1.3
Good news,a new version of codemagic will release now!
1.with both 3.2(after n7b's 1217 rom)/4.0.1/4.0.3(test with the rom released in "imp3.net" last week) support,with this version of codemagic,it's no need for u to download v1.0 v1.1 any more.U can use the apk on both n7b and n7k
2.fix the support of "Angry Bird",it's sure that almost each version of Angry Bird can be used on mips now!
v1.1
thx for Tom provide us novo7 knight(n7p) ,with ur help,v have tested our CodeMagic ics version and it seems work well
1.the v1.1 tested with n7b ics reldased rom and n7p origanal rom(since we can't find any offical rom on ainovo.com)
2.it can't be used on HC rom,if u need it,plz try the 1.0version and they r almost the same.
v1.0
tested with ainol novo7 basic honeycomb 1217 rom
the apk can not be used in ics of other version of hc now.
Great news. This is something can show that basic is not a bad idea to buy now.Hopefully in the future I can see many HD games can run on the basic. I'll try this and let you know if is working fine at this moment with HC. Thanks again for this application. Best regards
mmm what this app do exactly? it converts arm assembler code intro mips assembler code of the .so files?
BTW, just a warning, DONT ATTEMPT to install Chainfire3D driver, because, with this, the chainfire 3d apk installs and works, but hangs the device while installing the driver and it will not longer boot, and a "firmware update" will be nesesary.
BTW2, we should expect a performance hit? mame4droid now works, but is way slow.
Good Night
This is my first post hoping this works for programs apk
Install it on my Novo7 with HC 3.2 (is root and the operating system is the same that came with the tablet) but when I open I get a message "OS not supported", then press "ON", then the message "Waiting" and stays there doing nothing more
I need to load a special ROM to test apk?
Thanks and forgive my English
yes it needs the 20111217 HC... is the newer one.
Thank you very much for the answer
You know where I can find that version?
Many thanks for this!!! Can't wait for the ICS version of MagicCode, I assume you will make one right?
as far as our test.quite a few gameloft hd games can b used on mips nowu may try the hack version,if they work well,then u can buy them from gameloft
My main interest is to get the Skype apk to run on my MIPS novo basic. If MagicCode can make that happen then I'm more than happy to pay for it. I'll be wathing this thread... Thanx all u MagicCode workers!
im still unable to edit the build.prop in a way so the device can still boot up and arm apps apear on market. But that is a totally diferent matter.
So far its good, mame4droid run slow for some reason, but other emus are now working and run fine.
If you can check why skype and netflix arent working, i think me and every basic user will be very gratefull.
BTW, i have a question, the .so libs are "translated" to mips in real time or they are "translated" when installed? if the second is the case, it shouldt be easier to do a program that transate the .so files in a apk offline in any desktop pc? with that you dont need to worry about android versions.
I tested some aplications and games and most now can be installed but only one or two of almost 10 I tested can run One is a game ninja rush. Skype I have installed it but cannot sign in. Another game I can run is the asphalt 5 HD but need data to download and if I put a microSD, it still aking for external memory, no idea why!
Waiting for any update of the MagicCode. Thank you!
Brilliant bit of work guys, I can confirm that Swype works using this program, I am continuing to test others (Like Opera Browser) and I will report back as I find out more.
EDIT: I can confirm that, although Opera installs, it crashes on launch, I have not run a LogCat on it but there is no visible error, not even an FC message.

Hey guys,
I am also having troubles with the magic-code app, but i have come to the conclusion by reading this thread that i need the HC 1217 update or rom? a finger in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. =]

agreed, would that be a possibility in the near future?
Great work! Many ARM apps now work on Novo 7 basic.
It seems that MagicCode is doing dynamic translation, when the setting is "off", the installed apps won't run; set it back to "on", then those apps work again.
It's difficult to say how long will take to finish the ics version.
May b a mouth or even longer since the kernel 3.0.x works quite different to kernel2.6.x.
It's noly a dev version now.
forget about ICS for now, its not needed. DalvikTurbo will be avalible for 3.2 first anyway.
Any chance for a desktop version that could fully translate the .so files once, instead of having to do it on fly?

Hi Devs, i have a question about compatibility tv tuner via tablet. the tv tuners are A867(AF9015) and DVBT USB DONGLE(IT9135), the tablet is Maxxxer Q102(4.4.2 android, QuadCore A31) and kernel version 3.3.0 . Tv tuners play perfect on windows 7. I found some drivers(modules) for android version as ****.ko but are not for my kernel version. I tried to <<install>> it on modules as <<insmod>> but it say <<exec format error>> . My question is how can i make it right for my kernel version, or how can i make it play otherwise?
P.S. if my theard is in wrong section please transfer it in right. Thanks a lot
Hi, I'm not proposing you exact guide how to get working your particular tuner but very similar one based on same chipset. So you will have idea how to compile your own modules.
Sorry for Czech language only

Hello...I'm trying to get Android working on an older tablet/laptop (Dell Venue 11 Pro i3). No matter which distro/version I try (and I've tried lots, both custom releases and the Android-x86 project), I always end up with no wif or bluetoothi. Android installs and runs no problem every time, but without connectivity...
I'm a newb with this but not with PC tech in general. I assume I am missing a fundamental step in how to install and configure/add wifi support but I can't find a comprehensive set of instructions or even some rough steps as to how I can add support for my wifi chip (Intel).
Can anyone point me to some good reading that will educate me on how to do this? (...or just tell me I'm SOL if it doesn't work after installing)
Thanks much. I've been trying to find this information for many days now for fear of it being something that's obvious to everyone else.

You need to make sure that whatever OS you are installing has the correct OS and correct kernel that is built specifically for your device's model number. The kernel is what allows the software to use your hardware, kinda like drivers on PC, if the kernel isn't correct, your hardware doesn't work correctly, regardless of whether the OS works or not.
You need to be using your specific model number to find a compatible ROM/OS for your device.
What is your device's specific model number?
What android version are you trying to install?

I realize now that I've posted in the wrong place....but I'm referring specifically to Android-x86 and the many variations out there (Remix, Prime, Android x86 Project, another whose name escapes me right now).
I've never seen hardware specific versions of Android x86, but I've always wondered if users need to recompile the kernel for their specific hardware...yet I've never seen that mentioned anywhere.
I don't think I have hardware that's super obscure. Dell Venue Pro 11 (7130 MS)...i3, Intel HD4000 graphics, Qualcomm/Atheros/Dell 1537 wifi/bt. The most recent version I tried was 8.1 from the Android-x86 project site. Each variation I try runs fine in every other way, but without connectivity.
