Is there any point to install and play with cyanogenmod 9 if I'm noob?
I have HTC DESIRE S
I have rooted flashed so far by cgm 7.2 and I don't have problem really.
I know how to use google.
That's why I don't post questions about my device and set up, they are answers sooner, than my question arise. Google and forums are working well for me.
Is there any good to use semifunctional device for benefitial purposes? For example cgm9 for saga, the last nightly build, wifi is not working. If I'm noob?
How to report? Does it help really? It's not about complaining... I'm happy with stable releases and google. I'm not looking for learning coding. I "use" and if bug I do google search... Seems like cgm9 where functionality changes from build to build, there is no point to complain... of course... So does help to say if something doesn't work and where to do it? is there place to do that?
Do I have to make 9 other questions like this to tell that cyanogenmod 9 last nightly build for desire s has nonfunctional wifi? To be able to report it in developers threads? Is that helpful information? Can be noob helpful?
EDIT: wifi is not malfunctional, the etntire trouble is ICS android not being supported for connecting to ad-hoc acces points(hotspots). Infrastructure mode apparently available for set up under windows 7 (not xp) should let you use your computer as hotspot for ICS androids

I don't have this device, but if it doesn't work, CM knows about it. Are you sure it doesn't require a different kernel for wifi to work? Did you read the entire thread? I know sometimes in forums it says not to ask about certain things... Nightlies aren't a finished product. They are tests builds. Some better than others... I myself LOVE CM9 Nightlies!! If it's not what you want, just flash another rom.

For those of you who may have tried to connect your recently updated ICS Transformer Prime to your cell phone using the wifi tether app, you may have noticed that your tablet would not pick of the signal from your phone. We are running an ATT Samsung Galaxy SII here and had wifi tether 3.1 beta 6 installed from a few months back. Before upgrading to ICS on our Prime, we had successfully tethered Honeycomb 3.2.1 to the phone without a problem at all. After the upgrade to ICS we wanted to test some of the wireless connectivity issues and decided to tether to our phone once again to get Speedtest results and noticed that we couldn’t see the phone’s hotspot.
In launching the trusty wifi analyzer app, we noticed that the tablet was “seeing” the hotspot in the wifi analyzer app, however, there was a little red designation at the end of the hotspot information denoting “ad hoc” and we were not able to connect or even given the option to connect to the hotspot. In doing some reading on this and finding that in other forums there were many other users saying that after upgrading to ICS they were no longer able to connect to their hotspot, we assumed this was definitely something with ICS. Officially, Google does not support ad hoc networks in ICS apparently.
However, the upside to all of this is that if you upgrade your wifi tether app to the latest and greatest, which in our case was 3.1 beta 11, we were able to select the option in the wifi profile to be the infrastructure mode as opposed to ad hoc mode for our Samsung Galaxy SII. After performing the update, and changing the profile to infrastructure, we were once again able to connect our ICS Prime to the wifi tether app.
It is yet to be seen if this is functionality Google is simply not support from this point forward or if this is just an early ICS quirk that will be resolved with a later update.
maby this is the issue
Finnaly this can be solved by having windows vista in infrastructure mode... Windows xp haven't been build to provide such stacks.
2.2 released!
In the news!
Current features:
Based on Asus 9.2.1.27 WW kernelsources
Backported all Linux 3.2 USB LAN drivers (bandwidth up to 250 MBit/s! tested with a SMSC LAN7500)
ISO9660 (+Joilet), UDF, FAT12 and Apple HFS file system support (USB CD\DVD access! See notes)
Voodoo Sound support!
Turned a few unneeded kernel features off and compiled with Linaro GCC, it's smaller and boots quite a bit faster than other kernels!
Installable using your favorite recovery (tested on CWM v6.0.1.4 v2)
New versions of Tegra 2 codecs for ICS based ROMs (will be provided within a separate installable .zip)
Kernel manager application to manage loaded drivers and file system modules!
Supports almost all current ICS and JB ROMs
Compatible with:
[ICS] Asus official firmware (with root)
[ICS] Android Revolution HD
[ICS] Energy™
[ICS] Revolver
[JB] LiquidSmooth
[JB] RaymanFX's CM10
[JB] ParanoidAndroid:CM10 Hybrid
If you tested this with any other unlisted ROM, please drop some feedback!
Note 1: Some USB devices may need additional power, if so, get a Y cable from eBay so you can power a USB device using a external USB power source
Note 2: External optical drivers and floppy drives will not be mounted automatically, as Android doesn't officially support them
Note 3: CSS protected DVDs are not supported (e.g. Retail movies), due to Linux kernel limitations
Note 4: NTFS is not supported 'out of the box', please use Paragon driver from Google Play
Downloads:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gxi0gsl0tdfapgi/Ja19Exs4Sz
(PLEASE install Busybox 1.20.2 using one of the installer apps from Google Play, it is needed for the Kernelmanager application to function properly)
Source:
https://github.com/sander-ashwin/tf101-allinone-kernel
Please report if something does not work!!
Mounting optical drives:
1: First make sure your device is proper rooted (the "mount" command we'll use needs root)
2: Install Android Terminal Emulator from Google Play and open it
3: Type "su" and press enter, you should be asked if you would like to give root access, say Yes
4: Make a mountpoint directory, e.g. "mkdir /Removable/opticaldrive"
5: Mount your optical drive (make sure it gets enough power and something is inserted in the drive) using this command: "busybox mount /dev/block/sr0 /Removable/opticaldrive"
6: You're done! If you inserted a DVD movie, you might want to install Wondershare player or some other player that is capable of playing DVDs with menus
7: If you encounter any difficulties, please reply on this thread or send me a message
Connecting your TF101 to wired ethernet:
1: Buy a TF101 USB Host connector if you don't already have one (they are very cheap online, around 12-15 dollars)
2: Connect the adapter to your TF101, plug in your USB ethernet adapter
3: Android will display a message in the lower right corner of the screen that an ethernet adapter has been connected
4: Connect the LAN cable
5: Android will display a message that your device is connected using DHCP, you can now use internet using LAN
6: If you require manual IP settings, please go to Android's settings, there you can set manual IP or DHCP (OPTIONAL STEP)
Thanks to:
RaymanFX - for inspiring me with his own kernel, and for porting CM10
Asus - for making a pretty good device
prendomiao - for beta testing
Changelog
v1.0:
First release!
v1.1:
Removed some more junk from kernel
Now actually added new filesystem drivers!

Backported all Linux 3.2 USB LAN drivers
Kernel now includes support for Voodoo Sound!
v1.4:
I2C fixes + Tegra I2C driver ported from kernel 3.6
Tweaked I2C timeout, hopefully our touchscreen won't lag anymore
(this may fix the problem that the touchscreen sometimes doesn't respond for a second, because of an I2C timeout)
v2.0:
Fixed sound
Now compiled using latest Linaro GCC 4.7.2 compiler
New kernel manager application to manage loaded drivers! You're in control, so the kernel doesn't load unneeded modules anymore!
Reverted I2C changes, as they didn't really help

Updated BCMDHD WLAN driver for CM10 kernel
A little cleanup to synchronise both ICS and CM10 versions
Updated Linaro compiler to 2012.10
v2.2:
Added some new releases for more compatibility
i tried it. there is a little change, it is a bit speedly... i don't tried videos... but it is good good work
Thank you! Hope videos will play better as Tegra 2 is really picky with HD videos.
I'm now writing a tutorial for mounting optical discs, fortunately it's not really difficult.
but drivers must support them
Well, I included them already They are in your device if you still have my kernel installed.
But Android doesn't support automounting optical drives, so we have to mount the optical disc ourselves, until someone writes an app to do it (automatically).
EDIT: please install v1.1 if you would like to use your optical drive, as I forgot to include the drivers while compiling v1.0
Outstanding kernel. The first one I've run without SoD so far. I don't need OC, so the extra freq.'s are not important. Super quick, reliable so far for a few hours. I'll continue to report back, especially if I get SoD's. They are the bane of my existence. Keep up the good work.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium.
Thanks! Hope you can enjoy your device again
I would like to implement overclocking though, but only if the kernel is still 100% stable for everyone.
Stil need to find out how, as I'm still learning C and kernel hacking.
The main problem at the moment is that all different hardware revisions have different issues.
Mine has touchscreen issues with a lot of kernels for example, your device may freeze when sleeping, but with a lot of testing and debugging we might be able to create a kernel that works for everyone.
When having any problems, please keep reporting!

To avoid SoDs, you need to set the lower voltage higher.
The standard voltages I'm using should be ok, but mine still SoD's sometimes.
With stock kernel as well as with other kernels, as well as with my own kernel..
Unfortunately it always happens when I'm not at home, so I can't directly debug using ADB (if possible at all).
So I can't easily find out wether it's a hardware issue, kernel issue or software issue.
If anyone has a clue about this, please reply!!

Is it SoD with dock connected or tablet alone? I'm sure you're familiar with the SD card removal thing from the dock to prevent SoD with guevors kernel? That wasn't my issue anyway, but it's just one I've heard of...
edit: you know, I didn't even think about the voltages being the issue with the other kernels... Is there an automated program to adjust voltages? I used QuickClock Overclock for my Droid X, but I'm not familiar with changing voltages on any other devices...
---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------
I wouldn't MIND having OC, but I hardly use it. I got out of the OC game after watching it kill batteries on multiple phones and devices..
No one really NEEDS to OC, but for some reason people feel the need for it. The only phone I really NEEDED OC was my Droid Eris to play Angry Birds when that first came to Android... anyways, off topic...
I messed with the tablet last night, and still had no SoD.. I'll report back again tonight when I get home from work.
do you make it for jb please ?? we need it
Good to hear that the kernel works so far, hope it won't SoD.
I don't have the dock, the SoD's are just random it seems.
I'm also not working on overclocking anymore, too much files are involved which make it difficult to understand and fix.
It's also a pretty big risk, you could burn your CPU or GPU if using wrong values or something like that.
I'll leave the stock voltages and stock frequencies.
I'm now trying to fix the touchscreen issue that happens after some time. Not many people have the problem, so this won't do anything to other people.
Just updating the Linux I2C core to new 3.6 and backporting some newer touchscreen drivers.
Maybe I can also include some newer USB Ethernet drivers and backport other things.
When I implemented something that's worth trying out, I will put a new kernel version online

Different JB ROMs may require different ramdisks, so it will take a little time to get it done properly and stable.
For which JB ROM would you like to use it? I might be able to take a copy of the ROM's kernel's own ramdisk and combine it with my kernel
I'm also thinking into making one for RaymanFX's new LiquidSmooth ROM, anyone interested?

USB Ethernet works on Android 2.3 with icon...
Ethernet doesn't have anything to do with Android at all.
The Linux kernel provides drivers which will provide Android a universal interface to control Ethernet devices.
When you plug in your USB ethernet device, the kernel will create an eth0 interface (first ethernet device interface).
Android sees that immediately and will show a little message that an ethernet device is detected.
With very old Android versions, Android doesn't really support ethernet, but some kernels do.. in that case ethernet support will be provided automatically without any notifications.
So for example, if Samsung want to support every USB ethernet device, they can, by building support into the Linux kernel.
If Asus doesn't, they don't build any support in the kernel, so the devices won't be recognised and so they will not work.
Except 1 or maybe 2 devices, the original Asus kernel doesn't support ANY Ethernet device, but my kernel supports them all

new release
Everyone on older versions, please upgrade to v2.0 and try my new kernel manager application!
(Which is also my very first Android application)
Enjoy and please post feedback
If anyone would like to tryout a JB version of my kernel, please pm me!
I ran your 1.0 version, and it's great. I have MASSIVE battery life compared to before. The only issue I have noticed is with wifi reconnecting after deep sleep. It disconnects when screen is off (i verified the settings), but it has a difficult time reconnecting. I usually cycle the wifi toggle and it connects, or I click on my wifi and it connects. It's clearly not a major issue, just a little extra thought when I wake it up.
I read through and no one reported anything like this, so I figured it might be something to keep your eye out for in your later builds. I will install the 2.0 today and give feedback later. Thanks for your hard work!

With some words:
So can anybody tell me either a) why is BT HID so 'rubbish' on Android, ie why is it so rare that anybody seems to have got it to work e.g "Look. It's a massive problem, nobody really knows how to do it. Count yourself lucky that you've got found a GB build where it does work at all. Put the problem down and walk away"; or b) what a solution might be?
I've tried rooting round in builds, until I'm blue in the face but unless the *.so file either has a BT and or an HID in the file name, then I'm in the dark.
qazzi76 ; GregórioAxiaMagno and sergiocabraljr have found various solutions for GB builds I think and I know Samsung seems to have solved the problem. (I've seen videos of the Galaxy Nexus and it worked with no problems on an SII a friend of mine has).
Could it simply be a case of isolating and extracting the magic HID file and putting it into any/all custom roms, or it's a case (for some just to make it harder reason) that the BT files have to be recompiled for each and every build; as GregórioAxiaMagno has kindly pointed out with some of his work.
The holy grail I suppose is a set of files that can be uploaded to any build by apt, that resolve the lack of BT keyboard with every/any build.

:good:
The point here is, as always I say, the bluetooth stack on Android is a issue like call recording. And with this cenario, I think we can join people to help on this thread to post information about mods, replacements, hacking, apps and more. Until we find the optimal solution for the largest number of phones what we can. :fingers-crossed:
All is valid: kernels, modules, CWM, apps, tips, :angel: pray... any way of help.
I will ask for you people to post solutions here, and along of the time I will quote it in the second post of this thread.
Also, I want discuss with you about an optimal solution.
So keep this thread clean and focused only about bluetooth.
No, I and nobody thinks what the bluetooth is the world conquest, I want only use the totally potential of this "old" tecnology.
I know we have other tecnologies like OTG, but this thread must be only about how to deal with bluetooth in our daily use and experiences.
Lets start! :highfive: I have your help?

HID Bluetooth Device FIX for 2.3.5 and 2.3.6!!
Like many of you I was extremely excited to learn that android now supports HID devices and immediately rushed out to purchase a HID-BT Keyboard. Getting home, I fired up the phone and keyboard, entered the 6 digit code to pair them and saw the device connecting and disconnecting in an infinite loop. I was crushed and disappointed.
What went wrong? As stated above this is merely a workaround. But the problem lies somewhere between the kernel and broadcom chipset. This fix will reset your bluetooth pairings. It has been tested on my Samsung Galaxy SII I727 but it should work with any other device.

Looking here:
/data/misc/bluetoothd/<A BLUETOOTH ADDRES>
I was thinking one of this files have a value to set for make an device manually connectable. Like disabling/enabling auto connect. So the market apps to HID devies will work better.
What do you think?
I was messing into the system and looking at this path
system\etc\bluetooth
Inside, we can found some confs, so I was editing and guessing about input.conf.
So I made some mods and I will test today, but if anyone know something more about or want to test, please a hand will be cool xP.

Hi Everyone,
This is the first app that I've publish, so any constructive criticisms are welcome.
Vritual Wheel:
This app allows you to use your android device as a wireless steering wheel to control racing/driving games on your PC.
Your android device and computer must be on the same network for this to work (meaning same router/switch).
This app currently works with both 32 and 64 bit Windows.
Installation and usage instructions are in the app description on the Play market.
Link:
Please leave me some feedbacks in this thread on what you like and what you don't like. Also what you want (other than the planned features) and any bugs (please also tell me what device and version of Android you are running).
Code:
Changelog:
[B]v0.1:[/B]
Initial Release
[B]v0.2:[/B]
Added steering angle adjustments and deadzone.
Added 64 bit support.
Thank You
id noticed your post on lfs forum earlier on so downloaded it, il be going on lfs soon so will give this a try and leave feedback
Thanks. My computer's graphics card just died on me yesterday, so I won't be able to do much development. Going to take about 3 days for the new GPU to come in. I plan to implement adjustable steering angle, calibration, and hopefully bluetooth communication in the next update. 64-bit is a bit harder than I thought, so that is currently delayed.

It's a fantastic app from what I can see. I'm using a 64bit pc so I'm eagerly awaiting the 64 bit release!
EDIT: Is there anyway to run it on a 64 bit pc as a 32 bit app or something? Like "Compatability mode" etc?

Unfortunately no. The 64 bit support has to do with the driver. Currently, I estimate about 1-2 weeks before I can get the 64 bit support working. So hang in there, it's coming
Ok, finally got my GPU. Just compiled the 64bit drivers, and tested to be working fine. All I have to do now is implement them into the installation package. 64 bit coming this weekend

good to hear, im on a 64 bit machine so would find these useful, i look forward to testing it on live for speed,
v0.2
Added steering angle adjustments and deadzone
Also added 64-bit support (I am still learning Windows Driver Development, so the implementation is not very efficient and clean. Hopefully I will be able to design a clean custom driver for both 32 and 64 bit within the next month)
Wow this is a sweet idea

How to make this app works with City Car Driving or Need For Speed Underground 2?
Would you give a way to configure it on PC (in games)?
Thanks...
I can confirm this works with the HTC One X and Saints Row 2, I'll check out some other games the coming days if I have time.
Really awesome development!
Two things didn't go very smooth though:
- installing the unsigned driver
- figuring out the correct axis and buttons
The first is a tough nut probably, but the latter could be solved by adding a help option in settings that shows the button map.
Idea's for further development:
- autolaunch the program with Windows, to the system tray
- autosearching from the app for running servers on the network (check out Unified Remote's implementation)
- choosing to use the two center buttons or using that as a touch area (for camera control)
- hook the volume buttons as shoulder buttons!
- allow custom layouts (maybe only colors and texts, but that would be cool to accomodate other games)
The PC client keeps failing when I start android app, I assume while connecting to PC.
This application must have a "Prevent Screen to Turn Off"
Use with Linux? Flightgear, etc.

I had a driver issue here, but I attempted a fix and I think it worked, VWheel device driver is now successfully installed, but still app is hanging in Windows when I open simultaneously Virtual Wheel in phone and on PC(As soon as it connects, it brakes down). Also, I can see that 32bit users are installing v0.3, im on x64 here, first tried installing program from the main link in GooglePlayStore, but it wasn't successful, so I saw that there is a 64-bit version, which is reporting v0.2a ?

Do I need Wi-Fi connection or I can just turn-on my Laptop wi-fi and my Xperia S wi-fi to use this?
P.S: I don't have Wi-Fi, I use Modem to connect to internet.

You have to have a Local Network e.g. a Router, only enabling Wi-Fi on your PC and Phone is not going to work but I think there were a few programs that might help you create a network between your laptop and your phone. Google for Wi-Fi Hotspot or something and search the results for the program that suits you best. Good luck. Im still stuck here with program crashing when I setup everything right. Dunno why also as I mentioned earlier, program reports wrong PC IP Address, check for solution on that also.
Error code: CLR20r3, tried all the fixes I could find in the web, no success... OP, try researching why this problem may occur and at least let me know cuz I'm struggling from 3 hours to fix this and get it up and running Admirations on your work too
Hi Devs!
I'm wondering why not more people here working to get android lollipop working on our beloved tablets
I started to read a little bit into the topic and found quick easy solutions on the web to get ordenary android-x86 images boot very well.
Draco wrote an How-To that is easy and works also perfect with the Surface-Pro
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/D85Jq02cLrE
I modified the UEFI files to work better with a out of the box intallation of the Surface and put it together with Android 5.0.2 test builds.
Collect everything I've uploaded in a Folder:
https://drive.google.com/folderview...V3VU0wYV9MY2VVVkY2eGJPT0EyTkQ4WnM&usp=sharing
working
multitouch screen
sound
internal Wifi from SP2 (88W8797)
Bluetooth
Type Cover 2 (on installation also)
Touch Cover 2 (on installation also)
Inclinometer (= rotation sensor)
Ambient light sensor
Front Cam (tested with open Camera)
Rear Cam (tested with open Camera)
OpenGL (tested with Antutu)
Issues so far
Accelerometer [HID-SENSOR-200073.0]
Gyroscope [HID-SENSOR-200076.0]
Magnetometer [HID-SENSOR-200076.0]
MS Pen not working
YouTube Videos not working (only low resolutions, working over chromecast)
...
Are there more people interrested in getting latest Android working better on our Surface Pro?
I can support and provide with modified files and my modified How-To if someone like to join.

How-To
Here to download a Testbuild for Android 5.0.2 from Google Groups from rgb
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/3xClAbl5D_w
Info:
If an microSD card is inserted the boot process will fail, because the microSD replaces the SSD to be the hd0 device.
Solution: change the grub.cfg entry from hd0 to hd1 and also do the mod in the loopback cfg
[EDIT]: sinc latest UEFI Firmware update, booting from microSD isn't working anymore
gapps can be used from any place, just copy the contens of the .zip file to there correct places.
atm I use a small gapps package from paranoidandroid (PA)
http://d-h.st/o72
WiFi: (not required any more on available builds)
I compiled a build on my Ubuntu intallation and extract the files for you, hope copy the files works also on the downloadable iso.
Please give me feedback if the files are working for you.
usb8797_uapsta.bin replaced in /lib/firmware/mrvl/
mrvl folder replaced in /lib/modules/3.10.58-android-x86+/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
Touch/Type Cover 2: (not required any more on available builds)
hid folder replaced in /lib/modules/3.10.58-android-x86+/kernel/drivers/

Genymotin is only a emulator as far as I see!
I'm one of the users who want to run an os natively like i did with osx.

Hi,
I'm very interested in this!
Could u pls post a tutorial of installing OSX on surface pro 3 ?
I have only installed Max OS 10.9 in VMware, but it's not smooth verywell.
Does WiFi work well within your OSX install ed on the Disk ?
Hi!
For OSX Yosemite go to
http://www.insanelymac.com
I'm on the SP2 and WIFi only per external USB Stick sorry
I hope similar tho the SP2 kex Files for SP3 are available
For me OSX with the use of touchscreens is not very comfortable.
Is like Win7 to small buttons
Also at Android I only get WIFI working via external USB Stick atm.
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks a lot, I'll try it.. someday..
Solution for gapps found by the guys from google groups.
Use a EXT4 Partition on the USB-Drive/SSD to get gapps working like a charm.
Post 2 with HOW-TO updated
Surface Pro 3
I can verify that this does not work on the Surface Pro 3. The touchscreen doesn't work, the type cover doesn't work and the pen doesn't work, so I can't even choose my language on the first screen.

I'm sorry for that, if you have time, can you also test a available Android 4.4.4 installation if olso there touchscreen is not working?
I correct the title and update the OP that everyone sees that on SP3 ther are more problems.
Touchscreen is working on SP2 but Type Cover 2 did not so I also need an external USB keyboard for analysing things in console (ALT+F1)

Sure, I've got time!
I'm just going to try installing 4.4.4 and seeing if it works.
I'd like to see Lollipop for my RT

Haha, I understand you, but I have to mention that I'm a noob.
As far as I understand, creating/porting the drivers/firmware/kernel modules for the surface rt will be much more difficult than starting from an existing project like android-x86.
At the moment I split my SSD into more partitiones, installed the third OS (Ubuntu 14.10), get the complete code from git repository and try to set up the build environment to learn more about things are working together.
Also on Ubuntu the WIFI (USB version of MARVELL 88W8797) wont work out of the box but after replacing the firmware from git.marvell.com I get it up working.
Unfortunately this is not working on Android that easy.
The kernel modul for WIFI is loaded (mwifiex.ko) but no additional network interface is showing (mlan0 should be created)

Haha, so glad I found this thread. First things first, is your avatar a paragliding or skydiving canopy? If so, end cells look fantastic and very nice acrobatics with your leg straight up...how did you manage that?
I spent all evening and well into the morning finally getting 4.4-r2 running successfully on my SP2 using Draco's guide. Very nice work there from him.
It's unbelievable how smooth the Android experience is natively. When people recommend the emulators they just don't understand until they experience it themselves.
I have the Type Cover 1, and it's fully functional, but bluetooth and WiFi do not work. I have an Edimax EW-7811Un which does work, but the internet speeds are unusable; it maxes out at .25 Mbps. Is there something I need to do or is there another WiFi dongle which works better? Which one do you use?
Do you know of any combo WiFi/BT dongles that work?
If I can solve the WiFi issue (don't really care about having a small dongle plugged in for android), I will be one happy camper.
One more question: I read the 4.4-r1 had some drivers or something that 4.4-r2 didn't. However, I couldn't get it to boot from USB (it would hang on the android screen). With that said, I just replaced the files within the 4.4-r2 files with the 4.4-r1 on the USB. Do I have to rebuild the thumb drive or can I just replace files?
I will try the Lollipop build later. Good to find someone else doing this! Too bad we're both newbs lol.

Hi there!
I got 4.4-r2 working on my SP3 and about the internet issue you can use usb tethering with your Android phone
Both LTE and Wifi work and I get the same speed as my phone

Thats a paragliding canopy, and what you can see is the basic you have to manage when you want to fly acrobatic style.
Its a full stall where the canopy is not flying forward any more an the pilot is falling backwards untill the body stabilized under the backflying canopy
At the moment I use a USB2.0 HUB to connect the USB-Drive and the WLAN Stick at the same time. because after the last firmware Upgrade of my SP2 the Tablet do not boot any more from the microSD card. ?!?
The WLAN Stick is a original Samsung WIS12ABGNX for my Samsung TV/BD Player I used to test what can be done with them.
on Win8.1 I got a Speed of approx. 8-9MByte/sec (internal Marvell Wifi)
on Android 5.0.2 I got 4-5MByte/sec (external Samsung Wifi)
on Sony Xperia Z2 5.0.2 (unofficial) I got 2-3MByte/sec (internal ... Wifi)
when copy a file between my NAS (100MBit Network LAN structure)
so there is room for improvement, but first I really like to get more familiar with building Android from source by my self and try to get the internal Wifi working.
Also on Ubuntu 14.10 WiFi is working but not very stable but it does. (with including the firmware from git.marvell.com)

I'd rather get a small nano USB WiFi dongle and "set it and forget it." I don't want to have to carry around the SP2 and my phone with a USB cable just to use the internet.

Ya, the image was blurry, I was pretty sure that was a paragliding wing. I was a competitive high-performance canopy pilot (swooper) but have been out of the sport for a number of years. Some of the canopies now have radically different designs and the different wings between skydiving/paragliding/etc are merging now to make some cool stuff. Made a few paragliding flights, but never got into it.

You were able to boot android directly from a microSD and keep the SSD untouched (didn't even think of that)? Did the upgrade affect the partitions at all? Maybe the set root=(hd0,gpt#) and root=/dev/sda# changed, but I'm sure you already looked at that.

Ok, I just want to make sure we're on the same page here. So on Android you were getting 5 MBps (40 Mbps)? That's super fast, unless you meant 5 Mbits, which is still faster than what I'm getting. Right now, I'm getting 0.25 Mbps (0.03125 MBps) which is unusable. I have another WiFi dongle arriving today, so maybe that will help. If it doesn't, why am I getting such slow speeds?

Hi!
I did a 2nd x-check
Defenetly can receiver a 260MB file Form my NAS with ~3,2 Megabyte (~2min) per second and transmit the same file with ~4,5 Megabyte per second back to my NAS with the external Samsung USB WiFi stick
I would say its also possible to installiert Android to the microSD on a EXT4 partition and boot it via Grub.
Yes its all about the (hd0,gpt2) and /dev/sda2 or similar.
Just try it and if the numbers are not correct Boot into Grub and adapt the setting by pressing "e" and thest the setting with "F10"
Well I just tried the TP-Link TL-WN725N and it did not work at all.
Tried within 4.4-r1 that's installed to SP2's SSD and Lollipop booting from USB. WiFi just hangs at turning on and doesn't recognize the dongle.
Why am I getting such slow speeds on the other dongle? And do you know of any specific nano WiFi dongles that work well for this application? I tried searching on Google and in the Android-x86 group but came up empty.
I just want WiFi!!!! :crying:
Hi sorry for my english,there is a guide for install android on surface pro 1 ?
I think is same of surface pro 2, thanks.......
