Hi All,
I'm trying to get Ubuntu installed on my Touchpad... with lots of problems... (anyway, for now most are fixed...)
However, does anyone have a working link for TouchPadBuntuRootfs.tar.gz version: 12.04 LTS edition...??
- all links I found so far are dead!!
Ubuntu 12.10 Final = Screen Corruption, graphics messed up.
Ubuntu 13.04 Final = Does not install, and need to get rid of E17 and restore normal desktop
Ubuntu 12.04 = Cannot find this addition anyone, and Ive been trying...
Many thanks, Lister
I'm downloading mine from here.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4WUjKii92l2bDRlQ0NTbTZBemM/preview?pli=1 but haven't tried it in the process of installing it.
Took me awhile I had android on my tp so I ran acme uninstaller to do a fresh start because for some reason my WiFi is not working on android.
When I did that it messed up my whole TP then I had to follow directions to factory reset it took me about an hour so now I'm downloading the files to try to run Ubuntu

Hi Hovax615,
Thanks for the link, but I am after the specific 12.04 LTS edition of that file...
As I have tried 12.10 but that appears to have limited driver support, and both the graphics display drivers are messed up, plus it wont let me join WiFi... Says I do not have permission, even though I'm an Admin user...
And 13.04 version does not install via the method I mentioned in the other post. It says it's installed, but ends up in a Boot-Loop (only in Ubuntu, all other OS's are fine...).
So if anyone has a link to the 12.04 / LTS Edition that would be most welcomed, as all links to that file seem to be dead at the moment...??
Yeah, restoring a Touchpad can be scary times... My first go at that, and I thought my Tablet had proper died... as even WebOS Doctor didnt want to know it... But thankfully, its alive and well... And now I know how to fix that again easily, its not so scary now... lol
Many thanks, Lister

Yeah I got it to run pretty easily via smackme2. From clean install all you have to do is make a folder “sminstall" put the files in it should be
UImage,
the kexec which on Ubuntu 13.04 it comes with it already.
Moboot
You have to have the smackme2 in the folder that you have acmeinstaller in when you loaded android. I have windows so mine would be in
Program files/palm, in
Okay so let me run it down for you.
Download the files you need it should be 4 files total depending if your going to run the 12.04 which should be 4
UIMAGE SMACKME2
KEXEC.TAR(OR WHATEVER IT IS)
MOBOOT
UBUNTU
MAKE “SMINSTALL" FOLDER IN TOUCHPAD COPY KEXEC.TAR, MOBOOT, UBUNTU TO SMINSTALL FOLDER.
THAN YOU WANT TO PUT THE UIMAGE SMACKME2 IN THE PALM, INC FOLDER.
NOW TO GET THE PALM, INC FOLDER YOU'LL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE NOVACOM DRIVER. WHICH I ASSUME YOU ALREADY DO.
UNMOUNT YOUR TP RESTART IT AND PUT IT INTO RECOVER (WHEN RESTARTED HOLD UP VOLUME)
NEXT YOU WANT TO OPEN UP “FIND" OR “SEARCH" ON YOUR LAPTOP OR COMPUTER AND OPEN EITHER CMD OR COMMAND PROMPT.
NEXT AS FOLLOWS FOR COMMAND PROMPT.
CD /PROGRAM FILES/PALM, INC
novacom boot mem:// < uImage.SmackMe2
You can copy and paste that last one.
After that it should show the two penguins and start extracting.
It'll reboot the boot into kexec then toggle with volume button to Ubuntu and to select it press/hold the power button at the top.
I'm going to try to find Ubuntu 12.04 for you but its 1am here in California and I'm about to go to bed.

its only been a few days since new ubuntu 13.10 has been released so i just saw this problem now.
today i was sure its easy to install the adb in linux based os (because either u use sdk either u copy paste inside usr/bin the adb) ,so now i cant open my phone , its formated
u can see the problem in the picture. the adb is fine and see my device. the install command isnt working. error closed. ill give a hint , maybe this helps you people understand since u r all more experienced than me.
in ubuntu 13.10 ia32-libs are missing and cant be installed anymore. it sais its old and its been replaced by (1) lib32z1 (2) lib32ncurses5 and (3) lib32bz2-1.0. so i installed those 3 plus some more packages it auto installed.
thats all i can say. i dont know how to make adb working here now. any ideas ?
just for the information, because others will need it too. i used the qtadb as a temporary solution to fix now my phone. im waiting for news about adb if someone knows what we can do now in ubuntu 13.10.
<<EDIT>> thread is closed. ia32-libs is useless. adb was working but i was using command adb install instead of adb sideload. only my "head" was buged and kept using wrong command lol
Hey all. I was reading about the stock Google edition RUU 4.4 that's posted here. However, the directions say to manually install via fastboot. I tried with TWRP instead because I am having trouble with the command prompt but when I try to install the RUU via twrp it immediately says failed. Is there a way to do it via twrp? Thank you all
Just follow the instructions. If there was an easier way it would have been posted.

Take a hint and don't do it.
I know it can be frustrated, but that's one of those things where you REALLY need fastboot setup and working before installing the Rom. If something weird happens where you're in a bootloop or something, you need access to working fastboot. If you can't get it working I'll help you get it figured out.
But tell us exactly what's not working and we can probably help.
One tip is if you're using Windows 7, open the command prompt by holding shift while right clicking in the blank white folder space where your fastboot.exe file is located on the computer.
Shift + Right Click will pop up a menu where you choose "Open Command Window Here"
That puts you right to the step of typing the command, because cd (change directory to path of fastboot file) isn't needed since you started in the correct folder.
When you run the command, like "fastboot devices" as a test, take a screenshot of the cmd window after you run it so we can see exactly what it's doing and advise from there.
If you're own Windows 8 you'll need to disable driver signing, which I find the steps for by googling "Windows 8 how to disable driver signing"
Also if there's USB 2.0 ports on your computer use them instead of 3.0. And the main USB port usually works best, such as on the back of a motherboard instead of the front case in a desktop tower.

Just downloaded and installed v1.4.2 of adb via the Google drive link. It seemed to install fine except for an error installing drivers dialog box. When I closed dialog box, the rest of the installation went fine, answering yes to each setup question in the virtual terminal.
Then when I plug in the n6, widows tells me it has no drivers for the usb device, and in the terminal when I query the terminal with "fastboot devices", I get nothing.
This is windows7 running natively on a boot camp partition, (iow not on a vm).
Tried the install twice. Have not tried the osx version, and my linux box is somewhere else.

Now I know to use the older version. .. but do I need to uninstall the buggy new one first?
If so, what is the best method of uninstalling?

Hello guys I've lost windows 10 after flasshing the rom only erasing system,there is any form to recover it without installing it other time ?
Thanks
Is easy to recover - and windows booloader dissappear only if you are installing from iso .
I'm working to fix it .
You can make a bootable USB stick using Rufus and selecting GPT..., boot from this USB (overide by BIOS) and when installation starts, press NEXT and then Repair this Computer. Go to TRoubleshooting and Advanced Settings and go to command prompt and run these commands:
bootrec /rebuildbcd
bootrec /fixmbr
After that, go back and click on the "Startup repair" and windows will start without reinstalling.
The steps were described as good as I remember them...because I did it some weeks ago
If your windows icon on boot menu has disappeared you can also recover it by running bcdboot c:\windows from your installation ISO booted up at command prompt. (if you had installed windows fresh from ISO).
