Sweet, will definetly try this out when I get some time over.
Good job!

Real sweet. I can't see any use for it myself, but that doesn't make the accomplishment any smaller.

Absolutely no use
But I could not resist to give it a go.

Mmmmmm, When i launch adb shell I have :
Code:
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

Excellent work here snake. Don't see any use for it myself but definitely would impress my friends! Two thumbs up. Another milestone achieve for the Legend.

Did you (by any chance) try to copy/paste that error output into a Google search filed and hit enter??? You would have most probably got a gazillion of hits.

I try and walk =)
It is possible to make a full ubuntu rom replacing the system folder of Android by those of Ubuntu?
Just to see the performance of the phone.
ps : sorry i'm french...

Possible, yes. Of course it is. Likely? No. Unless you start a port.

On the nexus one we can boot from the SD card, why not on the legend ...
But the screen is too small for everyday use.

Boot from SD card? Well, look into how it's done, and see if it's possible on the Legend

I have found that sometimes bootubuntu doesn't work, and that changing all the "loop1" into "loop5" sorts it out... Just an observation

ok, will check it.

That would be so nice that we could have both android and meego on our legend ! If you could keep us in touch with your progress, that would be nice ;-)

And just one quick feedback about ubuntu on my phone : I've a problem when I try to use ubuntu with the phone terminal, I've a "chroot: can't execute '/bin/bash': no such file or directory", then a few errors with unmount (unpossible 'cause there's no such file or directory), and finally a losetup: /dev/loop5: Device or ressource busy...
Any idea ?
Thank you for your help.

Yes, but for mobile 11.10 is much more fluent and smooth like, where as 12.04 is memory heavy and is awkward on a small screen, this is just a beta by the way...

Can you offer instructions to how you made it work. I have tried time and again following the steps to the T and can't get it to work. I have been able to execute every exploit with valid instructions to this point and even have figured ones with half instructions but have failed at this.

I haven't tried it yet. But did you download busybox? Or busybox installer? There is a difference, assuming that you just went to the Google Play app. HOWEVER, if you used the link and it still isn't working, disregard. I had the plain ol busybox and the install failed for me. I will be using the BusyBox Installer. I'll know once my SD card is done formatting.

There's an app that automates most of the process. Its called complete Linux installer. It has more distros than Ubuntu and the app is free. Its on play and here on XDA
Sent from my XT925 using xda app-developers app

Would this work with Arch or another ultra-light-weight distro?
Also: Is there any way to get Complete Linux Installer or another automated installer to run it off of the external SD? Safestrap takes up a ton of space on the internal, and I don't want to cram an entire Linux distro on there too.

the last I checked windows 95 and 98 were free. I was doing a search for a license key a year ago and came across an article saying that this guy phoned Microsoft and they said that he can have a universal key and told him he can upload it to the internet and share it with his friends because they don't support them anymore.

i tested it on 4.1.2 on l5 and work(boot is long, you need to wait a lot of minutes)
if you use qemu you shouldnt install SDL.

Err okay which is better, Dosbox turbo + boot IMG from it - at least I get to the Starting screen for Windows 95 before black screen and nothing,
OR
this limbo /QEMU with the settings described here? Better sounds and performance with which one?
I want to run some late 90s games that require windows. I tried in the Dosbox on the PC and there when I boot in Windows 95 I get nothing but drive C: and windows files, it is all inside the mounted image in DosBox, I mean how do you even see the files if browsing windows from your phone wont show you the files of your phone but just the Windwows drive C: and the IMG's files.
P.S here is a site to download bochs/QEMU apk from forum .xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459153

i tested only limbo, but it hasnt big performance on my phone. however pre-installed games work!
maybe u can create a 2nd harddisk with your files, because is not possible to show/open internal memory or sdcard

ok I found the post that I was talking about. Its a generic product key provided by Microsoft for windows 98. I would guess that when I call them tomorrow they will be willing to give me a key for windows 95.

[GUIDE]How to take Screenshots in Recovery with adb

Hello everyone, I searched a lot for a guide that tell me how to take screenshot in Recovery but I didn't find anything that works for me. I tried using "monitor" in Android SDK but it doesn't work.
But now I found a method that works for Nexus 4 and I want to share with you:
How to take Screenshot in Recovery:
(I used Windows)
- Install Android SDK (https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html).
- Reboot your phone in Recovery.
- Connect your phone to the PC (you must have the correct drivers installed).
- Type:
Code:
cd C:\"the path where adb is located"
and press enter, for me was:
Code:
cd C:\Users\MyName\desktop\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\platform-tools
or drag and drop the folder where adb is located.
- Use this code to check if your device is recognized
Code:
adb devices
- Take the screenshot:
Code:
adb pull /dev/graphics/fb0 fb0.raw
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- You will found the file in the folder where adb is located.
- Now we have to convert the RAW file in JPG file, I used Irfanview.
How to convert RAW with Irfanview:
- Install the program and the PLUGINS.
- Open the RAW file and use this Setting for Nexus 4 (I don't know if this works with other devices):
Image width: "768";
Image height: "1280";
File header size "0";
BitsPerPixel (BPP): "32";
Bayer pattern start: "GR";
Options for 24 and 32 BPP: "Color order: RGB (32 bit: RGBA)";
The result:
Sorry for my bad English

Pretty cool!! Never thought this was possible.

Anyone know how to convert the raw to jpg in linux preferably via command line? Then a shell script could easily be written to snag the image and do the convert.

Here's the example I found using the tool "convert" from ImageMagick which is supported by just about every linux distro:
convert -define jpeg:size=128x128 input.raw -thumbnail 128x128 output.jpg
obviously the sizes need to be different...more details on convert can be found here: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php

I get this error:

convert: missing an image filename `fb0.jpg' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3011.
I don't know what to do

It's missing something from /etc/ImageMagick/delegates.xml
That example was taken from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10558487/convert-raw-photos-to-jpeg-in-linux-php
I havent got a clue what needs to be tweaked in delegates.xml. I'll try to do some hunting around.

[Result + How to] Root Remix Mini using Arduino Uno R3

(Sorry for bad English if there is any because I'm not a native English speaker)
Hello everyone,
First things I want to say that I'm completely newbie here and just a fews day ago I read the topic [HOW TO] Root Remix Mini
That topic inspired me a lot but since I don't have a serial converter like which the topic describe and I'm a student with no money and knowledge about electronic, I decided trying to root the Remix Mini with my Arduino Uno R3 board that I already got.
Result:

INSTRUCTION:
Needed stuffs:
- Arduino Uno R3 (I think other Arduino boards would works too)
- 4 pieces or wire (I cut them from my old internet cable)
- A PC or laptop to run the commands
- An USB with Extract-to-USB.zip extracted into. Download here
- CoolTerm. Download here
- Screw driver
Steps:
1. To turn my Uno into a serial converter, I followed this video:
For short, connect your Reset to GND pin and you're done
2. Follow step 2 in this thread
I'll put a quote here:
Open up the Remix Mini with a screw driver.
2a. Flip it up side down, and rip the rubber ring out. It's okay, it will still adhere to the case afterward. Once you ripped it out, you will see two screws holding the remix mini. Proceed unscrew them and gently take the case apart.
2b. Gently take the case apart:

3. Connect Uno board with Remix Mini board:
Here are the needed pins in Uno board:
And the corresponding in Remix Mini (I marked with the same color):
4. Plug Arduino Uno into PC
5. Start CoolTerm
5a. Go to Options -> Serial Port tab, if you see no error then it worked
Make your settings look like this:
5b. Go to terminal and set your terminal mode to Line Mode -> Ok
6. Plug your USB with the zip file extracted onto the upper USB port on Remix Mini board
7. Turn on Remix Mini
(Currently no root)

Yes, I so much care. to kick all advertisement from poor apps out and customize some feature OS to enhance.
And some network tools need root. This is for expert user not usual user.

I actually have no experience about android and things related to it, but I have the willing to try and share my experience
It's a bit sad that people don't care about it

Nice work but it does seem like a lot for a novice user to do.
Have you done anything cool with it?

Well I'm trying to remote control my Remix Mini
Just trying...

I care
I never thought, I could use one of my arduino's as a cheap and (even better) already available USB to RS232 converter (I know, I will be just using the integrated usb2serial component).
Now i don't have to search for my old Serial-to-RS232-Cable and do not have to get my old Laptop with OnBoard-Serial-Connection booting Up Windows 7 again. Now, there is no more need for a possible not working adapter to USB, or any other time-expensive task I had to accomplish without your valueable post here on xda.
Thank you.
