wow, that would be amazing

I'm now looking for someone who would help me with reversing Android Market app and rewriting part of it into C# or VB.NET because guy from Androlib.com declined to help and I need to get some connection to Market (app informations)

First of all, great server to upload it too
And the program itself is great. That's what I call user-friendly. Although mostly, nothing works right not, the UI is as straighforward as they come. Neat and organized, not to mention extremely smooth. I like it. Would very well like to try the beta out.

Yeah, we want UI to be as user friendly as possible.

this looks real nice, would be wonderful if you and camalot (creator of droid explore) both worked on something like this together, one doin mostly code and the other GUI. That would be amazing

I'm working mostly on code and my friend Jam3es is creating GUI

You can contact Saurik @ [email protected].
He is the guy responsible for Cydia on jailbroken iPhones.
He also runs cyrket.com, an on-line view tool for the Android Market.
The guy is friendly and open source and freedom advocate, so he would most probably help

I've already wrote him twice but no reply at all

bugs
the setup button doesnt do anything and it says that my phone was connected when it really wasnt

That's not bugs! It's not fully working version, but only "first-view" version that's only because we want to know how you like UI. If you want to see private alpha in action, check out youtube video in first post

Willing to beta test
I've been waiting for an app like this to come along forever. This is exactly what we need for our phones! It takes the hassle out of having JUST one mistyped letter in a long string of adb or console commands. If you're looking for testers, I'm willing to be a guinnea pig, and I'll help any way I can. Cot really able to program or anything, but I'll give you detailed bug reports, and anything else that will help with the evolution of this awesome app!

Would be cool if you could type sms and make phone calls with it.
This would be so perfect man !
Loves it, keep up the good work !

i couldnt get the .exe file running
i get
application failed to initialize,blahblahblah,click OK to terminate.
i couldnt remember what it said for the blahblahblah part >_<

That's because you dont have .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 that is requiered to get app running. There will be Lite version, developed in .NET 2.0 that will be ported over Mac and Linux too

No reason this can't install the Goog apps we'll be pulling from our stock ROMs, right?

[KANG] CM9 Atrix Test Build by wrldsuksgo2mars

I tried the latest build of CM7 done by the Atrix Dev Team and it is awesome. Very reliable, fully functional, etc. I figured I'd give a whirl to compiling the real ICS version to see what that was like.
CM9 build system with the appropriate Atrix Dev Team repos in place actually spit out a working ROM. There are a number of issues aside from the general preview state of CM9. I figured I would share them in case anyone else was as curious as me. Apparently, the internal atrix dev teams are well beyond these issues already, so kudos.
Probably related to CM/atrix specific stuff
- Camera and finger print sensor don't work
- Launcher crashes pretty often
- Some openGL demos don't seem to work right (or at all)
- No mounting the SD as USB storage
Probably related to the specific gapps package I used.
- Maps crashes after 3 seconds (signal 11 - native code crash)
- Maps wants to update, but it can't (sharedId conflict if you actually remove maps)
- Earth won't run (missing the earthmobile library)
- Google Voice Search bombs (signal 4 - illegal instruction - currently suspecting the native packages might have some NEON instructions that the atrix cpu doesnt support)
- Calendar will not sync for google or exchange. App loads, but the sync service is failing
- Lots of null pointer exceptions for the NFC stuff in the log.
Anyway, this is just a build of the code that's out there, nothing special done by me. It might be useful for a dev phone or something but not for use on a real day-to-day device. Obviously it doesn't have the google apps embedded in it.
http://www.multiupload.com/XT9QPPQYF1 thanks xploited for uploading

Personally, I had trouble going back to CM7 afterwards, my clockwordmod backups were screwed up (bad boot.img? cross-linked files on the SD card) and I had a very hard time getting back to the good ole working state. Ultimately, I had to restore the partial backup and then reflash the CM7 image + gapps.
So, if you were curious what building a random repo on the web and installing it on your phone would do, then feel free to try and lose all of your data. There are no updates/support for this, etc. It's just a curiosity... what is the state of this stuff right now?
BTW... I am back on CM7/Atrix now which is AWESOME!!!!

Not sure how the dev team would react to this ..we do not want any bricked phones because of this ..there maybe some experimental dangerous code in there in those sources as of now ..not sure though

Hmm... figured since I spent quite awhile getting a build set up, it might be worth sharing. I am happy to take down if it is inappropriate.

Well I am not the best person to answer that ...but yeah thanks for your work.

Eh, I wouldn't be mad about it, but I think it needs more caution. I would just wait. As you say, it kindof screwed with a lot and wasn't very usable, so why flash it? Maybe ok for someone who wants to look at the code, but I wouldn't flash it.

Awesome news man. Thanks for being a lab rat and giving us an update.

Not so much take it down as change the title of the post.
the current internal atrix-dev-team cm9 is way further ahead of this, we have some different patches. this is missleqading as it makes it sound official and is not.
Could you please change the tittle to [KANG] CM9 Test Build by "your name"
and please link to the sources, as is proper practice for open source projects
thank you

Thank you for this.

Anyways, Just out of curiosity... where can you find the official Atrix Dev team's CM9?

The one been worked on by turl is with him, that is not for public release.
Dont forget to tell him merry xmas!

I always forget what kang means.

it looks very nice but id needs a bit more work to be a experimental daily driver.
ps: to solve the corrupt backup problem just copy the files to your computer before flashing and copy to your phone before restoring.
good luck!

where can I get google apps for this rom? Tryed gapps for CM7 from CM wiki - fail, setup wizard crashes.

try the one on this link

For a preview build it looks pretty nice. Surprisingly stable for what it is. Definitely keeping an eye on this, especially since the code is out there to make DIY kangs with.

[DEV]Chroot-Linux on Xperia Devices Locked/Unlocked Bootloaders(Debian,Ubuntu,BT5up)

Hi,
I have just bought a new Xperia Pro and Here is My first Contribution.Hope you guys like it.
I have tested it personally on the Unoffical MIUI port for PRO.But it should work on other Kernels and Xperia Devices as well.
I am posting a few Screens for you guys and as you can see lxde is already pre-installed for you guys.
Feel Free to comment
Disclaimer:-
I am Not responsible if anything Happens to your Phone.You do it at your own Risk and Responsibilty,
If you Screw Up then dont Blame Me.
I am not responsible for Anything.
What is chroot?
A chroot image is like a Virtual Machine where you are running an O.S within an O.S.The point of this is that you have a whole Linux System running on a phone where you can ofcourse access all the utilities available in Linux.and as it runs inside of android you dont need to flash anything and can use both the chrooted O.S and Android together.
Things required:-
1)Terminal
2)Root
3)Sdcard with atleast 2GB of free space
4)A Brain

GO ahead:Try Ubuntu...it will give you a better Idea.

Hi! Have you tried this on stock kernel? I believe stock kernel doesn't have loop devices enabled and MIUI is a rebase of CM? Not sure though that's why I'm asking.

The Miui i used was on Stock Kernel.The Kernel Does Support Loop devices.Miui is a Rebase of CM but the loop functionality is related to Kernel.So,Yes it Works on Stock Kernel on Locked/Unlocked Bootloaders Both as we are not flashing anything.
Anyway Give Ubuntu a go.

Thanks! Just clarifying things out I haven't meddled with stock kernel that much that's why I am asking. Well the kernel sources sony provided has loop devices disabled by default glad that it's enabled on the official precompiled one.
Anyways! Try packing backtrack that should be alot useful than debian w/ lxde or a classic ubuntu image.
I got backtrack to run on Pro sometime ago when I was still using gingerbread.

Hi! seeing that you're a fanatic of these perhaps it would be useful if I give you these.
http://50.56.186.177/filez/
Those are packed and reduced sizes of debian & fedora arm images made to fit for chrooting on mobile devices. I made those for my previous device and is very stable already with 256mb RAM
the debian image is a squeeze version. Plus included is the fix for pulse audio. I'm not sure if it would work out of the box for android but with just a little bit knowledge with basic linux stuffs you could get it running perfectly

THANKS for the link...Meego wont chroot..tried it on the optimus a few months ago and failed..problem with zephyr..will give it a go later.fedora I had as well..but the thing is ...Does anyone except me even use these here????

I do but not that much. Like I said I just only tried backtrack and obviously I use it only when needed
Say do you think it would be possible to include a custom kernel on a chrooted image? It would be cool if we have backtrack here with monitor mode enabled. I think the wlan drivers/hardware of Xperia devices have the capability.
Or also try posting this thread to some other Xperia Sub forums. Arc/Pro users seem to be not very open to these kind of works. They just care on custom ROMs
In short they aren't geeky enough They aren't even that interested in dual booting.

In theory yes its possible.but changes will have to be made to the arm kernel to chroot.when u type uname in terminal the output inside the chroot is different than the android kernel.but I think native booting will be better than chrooting..not being interested is just odd....its so much fun having linux on the go

Actually I know I am going to say something Off-Topic
1) People on XDA are now the people who have got a smartphone just because they can afford one and wanna make their phone look "kewl" than the others with the same device
2) People do dumb things like cross flashing kernels.. They dont even read carefully what the OP says..
3) Running linux on a phone would be the best thing.. specially on an xperia pro where you get a harware keyboard..

[ROM] [ICS] [AOKP] DroidNix ~ Native Linux Applications ~ No Chroot

I have build AOKP ICS for the P4-WiFi and have edited the ram-disk in order to include the core Linux files, and I am currently working on installing Lua, Perl, and Hamachi, and making a CWM flash-able zip.
I will not hold your hand! This is not this hard.
This is not perfect, it may need some tinkering with to make it work!
If this bricks your tablet, I am not responsible, but I will attempt to help you fix it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~Installation Instructions~~~~~~~~~~
Download everything in the http://goo.gl/h3aDy folder.
Restore it with a CWM backup.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Changelog~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
0.0.1-Alpha
Initial build with basic Ubuntu-ARMEL files and LSB-Core installed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WIP~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-CWM Flashable ZIP
-Hamachi (Files.Hamachi.Cc mirror down. LogMeIn notified, awaiting solution.)
-Lua
-Perl
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*RESERVED*

Sorry about complicated installation instructions, I am working on simplifying them.

Hi man.
please tell us what is this exactly?is it an Ubuntu OS or sort of?
Question:in the "/downloads/" directory there's a build named "Latest-Build-EXPERIMENTAL.zip ".is it a flashable zip?

The only difference between Ubuntu or any other distribution are the repositories and the name. This was made of Ubuntu Lucid and the zip doesn't work yet.

interesting... keep it up!

Thanks, I want to get Hamachi working but the place they had the working build is gone.

Has anyone gotten it to work yet?

I've a GT-P7500 and will try it...Hate ADSL speed...

I don't n to be needly or pushy or anything, but can the OP, or anyone running the ROM, make a video showing the Native Linux app capability? I know it would have to be compiled for ARM and It's been hard finding ARM apps for Ubuntu, for example, but you can show me something cool then I'll love you all forever.

Does this have any package management included? How is this better than using chroot? In my experience for the things I want to do chroot is not bad other than the fact that I want an external keyboard (to program in emacs), but if this is faster somehow that could be nice. But I'd rather have the package repositories of Ubuntu over speed personally.

Waiting anxiously for a vid or a better explanation of it's use...Keep it man!!!

Perhaps if you compress it I can download...it's sooo big and my internet speed is 0.7mbps

It is better than chroot because it does not require a lot of the core Linux capabilities to run in two instances as in a chroot, so it is approximately twice as fast, and I am working on a package management app, but I cannot just use the Ubuntu repositories because I have to rebuild the applications for the specific hardware, but I am working on a package management app, but I am just learning Java.

[QPAIR/LOA] - LinuxonAndroid GPad support

This will be used to detail how to get LinuxonAndroid running on the GPad and the process of QPair support to bring new and interesting features to the project as a whole.
Step 1 - Install Linux on the tablet
We shall start by using the standard Complete Linux Installer to install and run Linux with the GUI pumped over VNC (Frame buffer method coming soon!), this method works on most devices and is the most universal but as the project develops in the coming weeks a better method for the GPad will be developed.
Anyway on with installing!
Root
First things first you will need to root your tablet, currently my tablet is running Stock V50020d with root.
The below will most likely work on other ROMs as long as you have root it should work!
(A custom ROM may be developed for further features.. watch this space)
Download
Now we have root you will need to download the below:
Complete Linux Installer
Terminal Emulator
VNC View (I recommend PocketCloud)
Finally download A Linux .img file from our source forge site HERE, I recommend and will be using Ubuntu 13.10 Small ext4. Once downloaded extract the .zip file and copy the .img to your devices memory (internal memory or sdcard).

Let me understand, you want to port QPair to linux that will run on the G pad?
Disclaimer: I'm also in the challange but the idea of running linux on the tablet is really interesting.

I guess @zacthespack wants to use linuxonandroid on tab and sync stuff with a third party such as keyboard, etc using QPair.

Bingo!
With linuxonandroid running on the tablet we could then use QPair to allow the user to have a phone (or another tablet..?) as the mouse/keyboard for Linux

posted first steps in OP to start getting LoA running on the tablet.
Everything is running very well, I shall finish the guide shortly to get LoA running but really the app install guide will work perfectly.
Next step I will be releasing a special Ubuntu 14.10 image which will be the supported image for QPair features and other changes for the GPad.

it say I need a loopable kernel which I didn't find for stock LG rom...

Stock LG kernel does have loop support so you should have no issue here, if you are having another issue getting linux to start let me know, shall be updated the OP in the next few days

Howdy, cool project. Couple of questions. I'm looking for a reason to install Linux on my tablet, but also understand that I can remotely view my home system with vnc. So what would be the benefit?
Is there more control using Linux to Linux?
Does this mean I could open into my home system, make changes to my kernel, compile, and upload to a server from my tablet?? Late night insomnia while in the mountains would be awesome. I would have to tether my tablet to my phone for WiFi, and run through Linux? This sounds pretty awesome.
Tell me the reasons it won't work.

Pretty awesome OP. Thanks!
