Question using Lookout, is it worth using or is it just something that bogs the DS7 down? Will it try to mess up any of the root apps?

I use it with no negative affects. Non-rooted. Slight slow-down during installation of new apps.

I removed it and I am pretty sure I get better battery life now, it sure seems like it.

Ok so count is 1 and 1. I mean I started using it now myself to see. Would be good to know from others tho if you all can chime in. =)
I havent had any problems with it since Feb 2, but I also have stopped a few processes - this being one of them... that have rendered the tablet useless for a min or two.

It is extremely useful.
Not only for a remote wipe or device location but also general security as well.
You can decide to not use a security app but when you get a malicious app or stolen device you will be kicking yourself

I read an article where it stated that since webOS went open source. Some developers are succesful in porting it ro android devices. I want to know how true it is and is there any flashable for our galaxy note???

It will be impossible without proper sources for hardware drivers.
but you can try

Web os itself may be fine to import, but it's still so new, as previous poster said it's the kernel that needs the real work per device.

If I knew how, i'd even help.

I was going to start a thread on this, but the search function turned this one up, recently Open WebOS has been spotted in the wild on a Galaxy Nexus and the Asus Nexus 7, so does this bring us any closer to a Note port? or even better a way to dualboot both similar to the HP Touchpad would be awesome! are their any devs actively working on this since i can't seem to find any info around the forums / internet in general, but i think there would be quite a lot of interest and plenty would be willing to test it if someone with the skills was able to make it happen
I like webos because its plain and simple and can do the basic required work if u succed in getting any info regarding its port then feel free to post.

Sorry to revive but if I had WebOS on my GT-N7000 it'd be like heaven in my palm!! We can't allow the Nexus to have this over us! Sorry to say but IMHO, WebOS smoothness and multitasking ability straight kills both android and iOS! (I have an iPhone, Note I, and Palm Pre). Sign me up if we need a team to get this going on our n7000.
Its also my wish to get the webos on my note or any other mobile device. I am now fed up of android and their spying data collection stuff. The permissions just feaks me out when a simple game says it needs to read the phone book and call logs. Wtf where the hell an app needs to get these permissions. The second is the location thing. they just make us use their os because of the wow factor. Ignoring what its doing to UA

I suddenly am getting errors from Google Chrome saying that this site (XDA) has been infected with malware that could damage my PC. It gives me the choice to close it or continue. I took a chance and continued, but it has me bothered. Anyone else getting this error?:fingers-crossed:
Just tried on mine, and it was completely normal. No warnings.

Same here.
(As in yes, getting the malware notice)

As I said in the OP, this is happening on my laptop (PC), not on the Nexus 7.
If you look in the general xda thread, there are some conversations going on about it. Hopefully it will get resolved shortly.

I ran Malwarebytes and it found nothing, but if it is too new for the scan update it won't be found. I hope it isn't anything to worry about. I'd hate to think I got something bad from XDA of all places.
I think it has to do with some people's signatures.
As the title suggests. I'm interested to hear what people have installed and got successfully running the Ubuntu install on the Nexus 7. Is there a spreadsheet anywhere that outlines compatible and experiences?
Ideally, wanting to know if anyone's been using Eclipse with any other plugins (specifically anyone tried FDT would be cool)
Cheers
Keep in mind you can't run x_86 applications on an ARM device... so I don't know if eclipse will work at all, me being oblivious to whether or not they'd have an ARM version.

You mean on the computer or tablet?

I see that there's an armhf Raring compile of Eclipse > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/armhf/eclipse
I suppose if you want to get even more pedantic and specific, I was ultimately wondering if you could also hook up another Android phone via OTG usb, then with Eclipse and FDT you could compile out Captive runtime Air?
I know I'll probably get shot down in flames with a "why don't you just get a laptop", and I am contemplating that too, but ideally I want/need to get a a tablet so the N7 is looking more likely. Tbh, I'll probably use Android more, but potential dual booting with Ubuntu functionality would be the icing the cake.
Been testing ubuntu using multirom. It's nice to have but I still feel that it needs to be more tab friendly and a few bugs ironed out. Boots quick and looks nice. I have also tested bohdi linux and that works well too. In time ubuntu will be a winner on the nexus 7 I think.

I was wondering if ti would be possible to DUAL BOOT WIN RT & ANDROID on Nexus 7, pardon me if this is a stupid question as I'm a noob and I was just curious considering both the OS are built for ARM.

No.
Beamed from my Maguro.
Not happening legally. Windows RT must be properly licensed from Microsoft. Even if it could happen the rules of XDA wouldn't allow it because it would qualify as warez.
Dear Op,
You know the bracket you put in the title of this post. You know the [Q]?.
Yeah this post goes in Q/A not general.
Thank you,
concerned citizen.

Nope. But even it were hypothetically possible, you are willing to spend $150+ on purchasing a copy?

Almost anything is possible. Probable is an entirely different story. As you've mentioned, the only way it could be done is with a prayed copy, as RT is not available as a standalone consumer product. Setting aside the legal and ethical aspect for a moment, it simply isn't a viable project.

Just setup a windows 8 machine and remote desktop into it. OnLive has a free Windows 7 desktop, even has office apps.

You can try porting a uefi bootloader, my uefi bootloader for n7 boots but then there is a bluescreen
Well... Do you want to have room for the os and NOTHING else? That's your likely fate if you try this...

The problem goes well beyond acquiring a (presumably non-licensed) copy of Windows RT (and even at this point, it would still be warez and thus unsuitable for XDA). You would also need to get a working driver set for the Nexus 7, which would make for some atrocious work (to say nothing of the ultimately poor battery life you'd probably see, since RT regrettably has no support for the companion core).
