[TABUNTU] Galaxy Tab 10.1 NATIVE Ubuntu WIFI now with a video

Smh the youtube function hates me... click HERE to watch the video...
Touchscreen not working right as of yet... I strongly suggest a USB mouse and Keyboard for this... Touchscreen is pretty much unusable at this time. I would appreciate any help that can be offered.
First start off downloading THIS. It is the ROOTFS.. first off it needs to have the /etc/fstab edited properly to include / as mmcblk0p11 instead of 13... I know I know... This is a work in progress....
Next download THIS... Contains the ubuntu kernel and boot information.. the boot.img and system.img are for your stock ANDROID rom of choice.. just extract the IMG's out of the roms and place them in the folder..
Download THIS and place it in the directory you extracted the above files to.
ADB does work.. and you can ADB into your tab.. I have not created Windows directions yet.. but you can pretty much run the same commands...
I AM NOT TO BLAME FOR ANYTHING! This REPARTITIONS your device and ERASES EVERYTHING... you must do a FULL ODIN to restore to STOCK.... I am NOT responsible for anything that happens to your device.
remember to chmod +x nvflash and the script...
And wait......... It takes about 20 minutes to flash everything... be patient..
When it is done flashing boot up like you were going to go into CWM recovery... Your recovery is now your linux boot image.. You can use NVFlash to flash back CWM to apply whatever and just flash the linux.img back to partition 8 to get ubuntu back..
Thanks again to LilStevie.. without him this would not be possible...
my github code is availabe here.
If you would like to donate for my work and to the OMFGB/OMGB build box which I own and run click HERE
I'll pretty this up when I have a free minute...

Will this work if one has a locked bootloader?

Nice work, Poitee.

I don't have much experience with the locked bootloader SGT's... Im sorry I can't answer your question...

I'm sure there's tons of interest. These tab 10.1 threads seem so slow at times. a lot different then I'm used to. I'd keep goin with it bro. its gonna be sweet.

This would derinately be useful to me, even more so if it could be dual booted, although I suspect my locked bootloader could be a stumbling block. Thanks for the effort you've put in so far.

It does dual boot... what it does is make your recovery partition your boot partition for ubuntu..
as far as locked bootloader... Im not sure..

yes please definitely interested in getting a version which fully works with the touch screen , that would be awesome!!

Of course were interested. Stop slacking and get past an alpha stage to a bets stage so we can all play.
Goodwork

This is friken cool man!
Keep on it, i would love to have ubuntu+ touch screen working.

I have a locked bootloader, but I would love to see this dual boot along side of honeycomb.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App

This is awesome! Great job. I can't wait for a dual boot setup.

This is awesome! Definitely keep up the good work. It should work on a locked tab no problem you'll just need to use Odin instead of nvflash so a bit of modification is needed to wrap those images into md5 files for Odin. If I have some free time I'll try it on my locked tab.

Wow I just saw the video and I'm very impressed, I can see this making my netbook redundant I'll try it out once it becomes odin flashable and I have the time to find out more about how it works.
Thanks again for the effort so far.

Yes, I would love to see some Linux working on a galaxy tab with touch screen functioning at minimum.
I was following viewsonic grab Ubuntu thread since last December but developers never got it working. Also video drivers was generic ones without hardware acceleration, camera and sensors did not work either... but this was less important for me then touch screen functionality.
If you can make it happen then by all means you should continue...

nice...
would any of the existing tegra2 development from motorola help? they got ubuntu running on the atrix device.. maybe something can be used?
im pretty sure it can be distributed onto many devices, as the ventana platform is standard, but drivers for touch, panel etc is missing..
how did you get the boot changed? how is the bootloader able to boot between 2 different kernels? do you have the source for bootloader available?

+1. I agree, especially about the Touchscreen, not many have the USB adapter to play around with it so that's probably why the reply count is low.
I think once it's usable without a mouse and keyboard you will see an explosion of interest in this. It's really a good idea to... really opens up the power of these things. Android is nice but it's kiddy stuff compared to a full blown Linux distro.
Linux for Tegra should help provide native 3D acceleration and stuff to If I'm not mistaken... I see a bright future for Ubuntu on tablets. (for nerds like us anyways )
Please don't stop development! lol I really look forward to it

{ROM} GSI Lineage OS For Our Redmi 6!

Hi There Everyone!​First a brief: I've been a longtime XDA user, but never found the need to create an account. Now, I bought a Redmi 6 and I'm really disappointed by the development:crying:, so I thought i'd chip in a bit I don't have permission yet, so I posted this here.
As you know, till now there are NO Custom ROM's available. This is really sad, and I can't live with MIUI. So I decided to give GSI (Generic System Image) ROM's a try.
And guess what? They work! I tried installing Lineage OS 15.1 on our cereus. The rom is really fast and smooth. Here's what I found:
Working:
Wifi
Bt
Camera
Vibration
Sound
Finger Print
Bugs:
SIM detected, but no range found. RIP calls/sms/data. Looks like a problem with the raido's.
Headphones don't work
I couldn't test hotspot and gps.
Even though there is a bad bug, it still works surprisingly on this MediaTek SoC with no drivers / kernels. All we need is a little paching and we should be good to go!
Give it a try. Ill post guide on how to do this later. For now, i'm using miui cuz i wanna make phone calls

Yes, we know. We tested this long time ago, there are pretty long discussions in twrp thread comments

What about finger print reader?

I know, and I've read through all that. They are all buried inside TWRP threads, and not everyone knows about GSI. I made this so people know, and I'm also going to make an other thread with instructions on how to flash a GSI rom for our Redmi 6 soon (It's a little tricky getting TWRp to work and all...)

It works! Sorry, I forgot to mention that - added it now :good: Btw, even though it works, it isn't as accurate and as fast as MIUI.

I meant to say good job about putting this all together. Nice.

I just randomly remembered when i was trying this ROM some time ago. Headphones doesn't work.
(Adding this to post would be ideal)
Edit: It could also be the Pixel Experience ROM. But i don't remember.

Thanks! I tried LOS again, and I can confirm that headphones don't work. Added that to the post:good: Btw, do you know any GSI ROMs for Cereus that can actually make calls and work well?

All i tried was LOS and Pixel Eperience. Both are same, except PE has Android 9.0. I tried treble RR, it had really cool logo while booting, and i was really excited for RR because i never tried it. But i never made it to boot. Boot logo is looping infinitely and i tried fresh installing (With MiFlash clear) about 10 times.
Edit: Maybe if you would want to, you can give it a try https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...0-resurrection-remix-v7-0-arm64-32-b-t3891636
Edit: I didn't understand most of it, but i could start adb logcat while booting. From all i could understand, all apps were dying and restarting all over.

Yep, only USSD is broken by default. See 11) on screenshot.
Calls/sms works out of box.
Don't know about volte since my carrier doesn't support it.

Speaking of, what does append persist.sys.radio.ussd.fix=true to /system/build.prop mean?
Sorry if it's something widely know im kind of a noob.

Seems that mtk ussd fix breaks something on other phones. So, this is flag to enable it.
------
Ahh, you mean how to append?
Open /system/build.prop file with text editor that has root access, add line to end, save file, reboot.
Or you can do this via adb/terminal emulator:
1) su
2) echo persist.sys.radio.ussd.fix=true >> /system/build.prop

Oh my bad. By the way I'm going to install this rom and I'll see if that line fixes ussd. Then we'll have a probably fully functional rom for the redmi 6. ****ing finally. It's about time.

if you check the app treble info, you will see that it say use A/B operating system and Architecture is ARM64! so i can say nothing actually worked.

You can really mess things up, so best to be careful and make sure you're doing it 100% correctly.
In download mode, for say radio.img it would be "fastboot flash radio NameOfRadio.img"

You might consider looking up high on android. He had an auto GSI installer for all pixels up to the 4XL and tested several. Some worked amazingly well, some didn't.

brother already have nothing for pixel 5 as i can find directly im curious if im needing to flash the vbmeta after the .img flash im definetly in above my head but will stay on this i know ill find a way

I just tested it on a pixel 5, using the high on android gsi installer. It worked and it was really easy. I used the Arcana gsi and it's a tiny bit buggy but I'm going to try the Corvus tomorrow. The gsi.img I found said it was the March update, so I made sure to flash the Google stock March img first.
After that, you just need to go to youtube and search for high on android auto gsi installer. Follow his instructions. I have no idea what features will work and which ones won't. If you do this, you do it at your own risk and accept all responsibility. I hope you find what you're looking for.

Ok, I couldn't wait so I tried the Corvus gsi. Both of these tests were on A12 so that might influence your decision but I was pretty underwhelmed with Corvus. It was clean with zero bugs but I think there's better options in the legit custom roms available here, on XDA. If you're going for A11, you might have more features but I think a ROM build specifically for the device will always trump a GSI.

yea im good asomeone i definetly trust his opinion told me it wasnt happening anyways so this post is officialy dead but mad appreciation on getting to me fam,
