Been at it for 2h now and i just can't seem to make it work, ive installed the latest nookie froyo on the internal memory of my nook and i just can't seem to get the market on it, i tried with a guide from http://forum.androidcentral.com/bar...ion-install-nookie-froyo-internal-memory.html
But everytime i try the adb commands i get a device not found error and i can't seem to fix this problem, i have tried to install the nook usb drivers but i still get the same error, is there any easier or other way of getting it?
Thanks
Kris
Anybody?? A tablet with no market and no youtube makes it kind of useless....

Yo. nookdevs dot com ADB_Over_USB
This is my second post of eight minimum. Won't let me paste a hyperlink.
Also, scan the developement section and look for some of the market zip files for Froyo.
Once you get on the market, download ADB wireless. I find it better than ADB over USB.
NookDevs also has very good tips for Froyo and where to download what.
For some reason when you simply install JUST the install.exe it doesn't work (well it didn't for me atleast) I had to also run the DPInst64.exe since I am on Windows 7 64-Bit OS. After runing the DPInst64.exe and letting it install I was able to use ADB over USB.
If you are running a 32-Bit OS DO NOT run the DPInst64.exe - Use the DPInst.exe instead.
I had MAJOR issue getting ADB to work.
All my info came from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910008
You really need to read and re-read this and make sure you follow the exact instructions and it will work.
The problem that caused me some issues was the USB Debugging check mark was not on. But that was a problem with Auto-Nooter 3.0, you are using Froyo.
I can confirm that once the ADB drivers are installed with Auto-Nooter, they will automatically be okay when you are in Froyo (which I am now). I did not have to redo anything.
I spent several hours uninstalling/reinstalling devices and usb ports, etc in Windows Device Manager. Both on Vista 32 bit and Windows 7 64 bit. They all work fine now simply by following that thread.
I've spent some (much) time this week with trying to get ubuntu running on the optimus 2x. I have succeeded to boot and get the wifi, X11 and the touch screen sort-of working.
The ramdisk is completely replaced with a busybox executable, some symlinks to it and a shell script that mounts the necessary stuff (/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 as ext3), changes root directory and calls /sbin/init.
USING THE FOLLOWING WILL VOID ANY WARRANTY YOU MIGHT HAVE LEFT AND MIGHT ALSO BRICK YOUR PHONE!
Seriously, don't do this if you don't wish to risk the data on your phone.
I will be providing some demo images for people who don't have a build environment up and running. These images will not work particularly well, don't get your hopes up .
If you want to have a big linux installation (more than 3 GB) you can flash the images to the second partition on your external sd (obviously you have to create this yourself first). You can use the following boot image (which assumes that linux is on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 with ext3:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/boot-20110813.img
I have also targzipped the modifications to the file system that were required to get stuff going here:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/o2x-20110813.tar.gz
This should be extracted directly to the root file system.
The kernel source code is up at https://github.com/ergoen/LG-Optimus-2x-linux-kernel
Things that have been done to get this to "work":
1. Boot partition
Apart from grabbing the busybox stuff from some nexus one boot image (I'm sorry whoever fixed it, I don't remember where I got it from ) the boot command line had to be modified a bit, changing stuff from the default usually ends up in a phone that won't boot, but I discovered that it's possible to append new arguments to the default ones. So the following have been appended:
console=tty0 root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 init=/sbin/init
The console=tty0 makes sure that you see stuff on the screen while ubuntu get's running. The last two are not necessary to boot, but ubuntu seem to like (need?) them (or at least the init=/sbin/init), since otherwise you never get to the login prompt on the screen.
2. The Ubuntu installation
To make it possible to communicate with the phone at all adbd was put into the /sbin/ folder and a symlink was created /system/ -> /. Also the "/sbin/adbd recovery &" command was added to rc.local to make it autostart.
2.1. Modules and wifi
We need the /lib/modules/2.6.32.9 directory. Most files inside that were generated using the "depmod" command, the exception is wireless.ko which was taken from android, the firmware and nvram files needed for the wifi chip to work were placed in the /lib/firmware/wl/ folder. To make the wifi module autoload with the proper firmware "wireless" was added to /etc/modules and the file /etc/modprobe.d/wireless.conf was created with the contents describing the location of the firmware and nvram.
To make the wifi autoconnect on boot the /etc/network/interfaces file was modified with the following contents:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
(To make the wifi autoconnect to your wireless you need to run the command "wpa_passphrase networkname networkpassword > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf using adb or chroot)
2.2. X11
Getting X up by running xinit produces a simple black screen on the phone. At first I thought the problem was that the refresh rate was set to 106 Hz, indeed changing it with xrandr and pushing a new mode got me a visible xterm on Kubuntu 11.04:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/xterm.jpg.
On Ubuntu 10.10 it even gave me a nice colored gdm screen:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/gdm.jpg
But the image I got there was static and wasn't being updated. Turns out the reason the screen was black earlier with the 106 Hz rate and the reason why the screen is now just showing an image is that the framebuffer device doesn't update the screen like it should..
By modifying the kernel source to redraw the screen every 50 ms (~20 Hz) it's possible to get a scren that works. This is an ugly hack in the tegra-fb driver though, so I'm open for suggestions on how to solve it in a better way!
2.3. Touchscreen
By default the only thing the touchscreen does is force the mouse up in the left corner, I think this is due to some multitouch thing. Some more kernel hacking (basically half-disabling multitouch) makes the touchscreen work.

Thans to RaYmAn and lilstevie on #tegralinux for all their help this far!
3. Misc
(K)Ubuntu 11.04 uses a new version of libc which crashes with the current nvidia kernel (2.6.32.9) on this hardware (http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/errata-657451-tls-bit-20-cp15-c13-3), so I'm going back to Ubuntu 10.10 until someone ports a newer kernel to the Optimus 2x or this problem can be solved in another way.
edit 1: Ubuntu 10.10 with much more working X11 noted in section 2.2.1.
edit 2: X11 working even more, touchscreen works aswell!
edit 3: Landscape mode works with both X11 and the touchscreen now, getting ready for alpha 1!
Current status:
Working:
- adb (best way of controlling device currently)
- X11 (only framebuffer with hardcoded refresh rate of ~20Hz)
- landscape mode fixed! =D
- touchscreen (probably only single touch)
- wifi (only when running things from console, ubuntus network manager does not recognize it)
Not working:
- Basically everything else
Alpha 1:
EDIT: Seems that multiupload has screwed up and this link was going to some crap, anyway this is not relevant anymore
Username 'ubuntu', password 'ubuntuxda'. Don't use this if you don't know how to restore the boot partition! (Or else you won't be able to boot back into android!)
Experiments:
Tried disabling the CONFIG_TEGRA_ERRATA_657451 switch in the kernel to make newer linux versions boot. This might be a bad idea in the long run, but this far things are working better than with the switch enabled..
I tried Ubuntu via chroot method posted in other thread, but I'm a noob.. Can you please explain what is different about your ubuntu?? Does it boot without Android and doesn't need VNC stuff?
Yes, it boots instead of android when turning on the phone, but it doesn't work completely, so I mostly put it up here so that people could help test and fix/hack things.
You rock! Unfortunately I'm no dev, so can't help but hopefully others will, so we'll get a fully working linux on our phone, and maybe later even meego. Is there btw drivers for the gpu? Because hdmi, with usb host ofc, would be really useful!
Anyway, good job, really!
This looks great ergoen! I'm no dev either but I can't wait until it's available to everyone, I would love to have Ubuntu running on my O2x.
Best of luck!
gpu drivers are closed source, and the ones released by nvidia require a newer kernel (2.6.38), so thats not really possible yet.
Newer kernel will be necessary anyway though, since the crashes I'm getting seems to be due to a bug in tegra which gets worked around in 2.6.36. I'm not skilled enough to perform that port though. I will of course give it a try, but most likely I'll go for some older version of ubuntu and/or perhaps meego instead.
Håller med tidigare poster. Would be awesome with native Ubuntu and Meego on the phone... keep up the good work, can't wait to follow this development.

What would happen if you changed this to 72Hz instead? I saw that info when I was browsing System Information in some app. Im not a dev At. All. But tell me what you think it's probably a stupid question

I can give it a try later, not that it would make any difference .

Seriously, don't do this if you don't wish to risk the data on your phone.
I will not provide a complete root file system for two reasons:
1. It's pretty easy to make yourself, grab the omap3 kubuntu mobile image from the kubuntu site, or use rootstock from an ubuntu installation to build one yourself.
2. My upload sucks, and putting several hundred MB onto the interwebz would hurt me.
However, I have placed an image of my boot partition here (assumes you've got ubuntu on the second partition of the external memory card formatted with ext3):
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/boot.img
I have also targzipeed the modifications to the file system that were required to get stuff going here:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/o2x.tar.gz
This should be extracted directly to the root file system you aquired earlier.

2.2. X11
Getting X up by running xinit produces a simple black screen on the phone. After some troubleshooting and voodoo magic I realized that it tried to run the screen at [email protected], which is hmm, wrong . So setting up a script at /etc/xprofile, which makes sure the refresh rate is 60Hz, and running it after xinit gets you a xterm!!!
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/xterm.jpg
Telling /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to run it makes sure that it gets set up properly by the startx script, unfortunately startx doesn't go through for me on kubuntu because of some weird error caused by a hardware problem in tegra: (http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/errata-657451-tls-bit-20-cp15-c13-3).
Unfortunately this (probably) means that either we'll have to stay with old versions of libc or get a newer kernel (2.6.36 contains fix). Old libc seems backwards, but porting a new kernel requires a bit more skill than I possess.
2.2.1. Ubuntu 10.10
Grabbed the image ubuntu-netbook-10.10-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap.img.gz from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/maverick/release/ . After first unpacking the tgz, then unpacking the raw disk image to partition images (with 7zip on windows) and then flashing the 1.img file to the second partition on my sdcard I managed to run a much more bug free ubuntu than before.
Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) uses an older version of som libraries that don't crash with the old o2x kernel.
This has lead to the following:
https://ha.xxor.net/o2x/gdm.jpg
Obviously touch screen isn't working properly (pressing it puts the pointer into the upper left corner :S) so can't get further than this currently.
3. Misc
avahi-daemon and cups seems to be crashing all the time and restarting, so removing them (apt-get purge if ubuntu/kubuntu) will make the boot much cleaner. Also I get lots of alignment trap kind of errors that shouldn't be there for different kinds of services, (due to tegra bug mentioned earlier).

Most computer screens usually support atleast 72hz also, it's just that it only works with d-sub, and sometimes only at a lower resolution.. It's possible to make special drivers to some screens to enable higher refresh rate through dvi also.
Anyway, it's good the screen on the phone refreshes at 72hz instead of 60 for android, but in linux I really don't see the benefit.. Doesn't hurt to have though. Btw, if we would stay on this kernel, can we use the drivers from android then? Shouldn't gpu also work? Or are the drivers limited and don't allow xorg for example? Sorry if it's stupid question, don't have that much knowledge how android works yet.
Update: X11 and touchscreen work on Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick with new kernel (just a few hacks )!
manasgirdhar: sure! Lot's of things to do new kernel is needed for anything newer than ubuntu 10.10, and even here things like sound etc (cpu scaling maybe too) don't work.
kruppin: actually i removed the xorg.conf now, the phone thinks its running at 106 Hz and it works. Unfortunately in practice it goes at more like 20 Hz because of the hack I made to enable the fbdev output in the kernel. Android doesn't use X11, so those drivers wont be of any use. (I will post the kernel modifications to github soon)
edit: kernel source up on https://github.com/ergoen/LG-Optimus-2x-linux-kernel
A List of Things working at 2nd Post would be nice.
So anybody could fast see Updates,...
Edit:
Have you tried some "cleaner" Linux like Debian?
Alpha 1 is up in the second post for anyone who wants to test it (don't ^^).
I have not tried debian no, I thought ubuntu would be the easiest to google errors and bugs for .
You are great! i was hopin' for this since I have mine. You should try to make usb(otg) work to get some devices going i will try to test it soon
That's amazing We have to test USB OTG function. If it works by default, I'll try this right now
It is possible to make a dual-boot: ubuntu and android?
I don't think usb otg works since I am basically using the android version of the kernel, I also won't be able to try since I don't have a cable... (will buy one sooner or later).
Dual boot probably works if you flash the boot.img onto the recovery partition instead of the boot partition (/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 instead of /dev/block/mmcblk0p5). I have not tried this though. That way regular booting would give android and booting while holding volume down would give ubuntu, only problem with this is that cwm will be gone and the only way to fix broken things would be to flash with nvflash.
well it is not a major deal if have cifs avail needs kernel support as well. Benee mentioned (might) some otg support, mayb u could ask.
also, you might give E17 a try, it is butter-fast, and has a touch module for keyboard (letter zooming.!..) LINK
this can be compiled on a lot of hw, and gives good response with fbdev non-accel drivers also.
and most linux apps work on it fine. ofc until we have 2d/3d accel and might try compiz/fusion as well
LINK
Great job ergoen!
I've worked on exactly the same some weeks ago but i never accomplished it. because i stuck creating a working ramdisk. Which toolchain do you use?

ok i had used the desktop version of kingroot to root the device, and despite my adb drives still refusing to work on windows it worked for both the tablets. but now when i plug it into ubuntu to start removeing kingroot and adding supersu i don;t get the aurthorizeation notafication and i have tried revoking all and disabling and re-enableing adb and restarting computer and tablets but now it just wont authorize. all these simple tutorials have turned out to be complete nightmares for me. i have never had such a difficult time hacking a single device in my life and that includes wiis psps other kindles eta.

Don't know what to say...securing adb access/authorization has not been a high hurdle for most visitors to these pages including many with little/no technical background. Possible you have a finicky USB cable?
Once rooted the SuperTool is only needed to gracefully remove Kinguser. You could pop open the batch file and issue the relevant commands manually as needed. Blocking OTA involves renaming a single file. After that FlashFire can be sideloaded from APKMirror.
yea problem is that super tool is not working on linux it says it is working and success but dose nothing, i can't use the super tool on windows becasue adb drivers not installing despite folowing tutorials closly how to install i just run into problem with no what if that problem not solved. it really sucks howcome is this 5.1.2 so ****ing hard to hack root on. i would rather have to hack 30 wiis blind and 30 psps blind than this. it is just for some reason i keep running into errors. where normaly i run into no errors or common errors that a google search can fix. :/

The games and the launchers were working fine, but then after not playing for few days when I tried opening the Counter Strike: GO, I first noticed that error. Thought restarting would solve the issue and went to play Red Dead Redemption 2. But the next day too there was the same error. Then when I tried starting Steam, there was the same error.
I have tried almost all the mentioned solutions found on the web, except the Clean Installation part, none of them has worked so far. So far have found the errors on all Steam related games and Origin PC related games. Rockstar Games and the launchers work perfectly fine.
As far as I know, I did uninstalled some of the Microsoft Build Tools while installing Visual Studio 2019. This might have caused the issue. But I cannot pinpoint the exact cause.
What I've tried so far
Re-installing all Visual C++ Redistributable from 2005 - 2019
Re-installing Dirext X
Updating the dll files
Running All-In-One Runtime packs (Visual C++)
Checking hard drive for corrupted files with sfc /scannow and chkdsk commands
Device Info: Asus ROG Strix G15 - 533QM, 16 GB RAM, Nvidia RTX 3060, 1 TB nVme SSD, Windows 10 (19044.1415)
I am really sorry if this wrong forum for this.
Have you tried either uninstall steam or origin after uninstall Microsoft visual c++?
Those will reinstall missing components.
not exactly in that order... i will try doing that and inform here... thanks for the suggestion
Ok , Resetting the PC (deleting everything) worked for me... Clean Windows Installation should work too..
This is how to fix Origin error 0xc00007b- unable to start correctly:
Open the start menu and search for ‘CMD’.
Right-click it, and hit run it as administrator.
When it opens, type in: ‘chkdsk c: /f /r’ and hit Enter. Type the command without the quotation.
Type in ‘Y’ and hit Enter again.
Restart your PC.
Once your system has restarted, try to install Origin, or launch it once more, depending on for what this error occurred.
Hope this helps.
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}
I re-installed Windows, and that solved the issue for me...
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}
yes I did that... I did uninstall and re-install Steam, but that did not solve it... Clean Windows installation did solve it though
