Link works fine for me, just tried it.... right click on the link and click "save target as" or "save link as", see if that works for ya.....

I might try to upload this to my website and offer a link for faster download.... but no guarantees.... I only have 1mb upload speeds so 3.5gb will probably take around 7 hours to upload.... not sure if I'm that patient....if I decide to, I might trim the image down to like 2.5gb or whatever the minimum is I can safely trim it down to and then upload it in winrar parts.....

And about the usb host so we can use usb devices with this.... I could be wrong but I believe that our android kernel needs to support usb host in order for it to work......and it still may not work or need something special done for it to work to get android to share that usb input with ubuntu.....im not sure if current android kernels like tytungs and rafpignas support usb host.... I searched around and couldnt find a definite answer.... I would love to get this to work with my usb wireless mouse so I don't have to buy a bluetooth mouse just for it....my wireless usb mouse works fine with ubuntu 0.3 that has to be started with windows mobile.... but in order to use it I have to flash to winmo as I use nand android......I actually like the ubuntu 0.3 that must be started with winmo better then this one bcause of the interface...

I have one question if anyone knows.... adobe flash.... would it be possible tog et this on this build? From what i understand, it's not compiled for our phone processor, so the answer is no.... and if not I saw this other flash thing, it was called gnash or something similar... it was like an alternative to adobe flash I think..... I installed it and the flash item I want to use still wouldn't load... maybe I need to activate it somehow in mozilla? Not an advanced linux user so I'm not sure.... anyways, I want it for flash games.... like facebook zynga poker.... I know there is an android app for it but it sucks nuts and results in lost chips....lol.... and it does load in the android browser but is not too functional... it works but not well....
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Theonew:
Yes it is. Adobe Flash Player has two basic requirements from what I have read:

1. Atleast Android 2.2

2. ARM7 Processor which the HD2 does have.

It should be able to because when I am running android (gingerbread 2.3.1) on my HD2, I installed it and it (Adobe Flash Player 10.2) works amazingly.:)
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] diesburg:
You're talking about the one for android right? I;m talking about adobe flash in ubuntu linux..... not android.... that is, this version of ubuntu linux on the hd2.....
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Theonew:
Try going here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/flash. It should work. Hope it helps.:)
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] diesburg:
Will try here in a few, thanks for the help
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] diesburg:
Wish I knew more about kernels like how to compile them with patches so i could add usbhost support to a kernel so we could use usb items on this ubuntu image.....I just might have to learn if there isnt any good updates for the other version of ubuntu that loads from winmo.....
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] TheDoctor1911:
Is the img from the link in the op (the megaupload one) the same as the download in the OP?
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] BenGman:
Has anyone tried from an SD boot Android?

I need WinMo (GPS maps for my country are only available for Garmin that I use everyday) but I want to use a workable Ubuntu on the HD2...

What Android ROMS are you guys using?

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] TheDoctor1911:
If you use winmo, you can just use the haret built in this forum. You boot that one by launching haret.exe
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] BenGman:
Boot Ubuntu 10.10 directly from WinMo using Haret or start SD Android the usual way and then use this method to load Ubuntu?
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Theonew:
Yes about booting it from Haret.exe in Windows Mobile... but no about start SD Android. You have to use the start SD Ubuntu made for it.

Re: unable to start Ubuntu

Hello all,

I am anxious to get this Ubuntu running on my HD2 sd card (I currently have Pongster's HyperDroid v12 android running on nand) and HAVE BEEN able to run Debian without a problem whatsoever.

Here is what I get in the Better Terminal Emulator:

export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH:.
su
cd /sdcard/ubuntu
sh ubuntu.sh
# export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH:.
# su
# cd /sdcard/ubuntu
# sh ubuntu.sh
WARNING: If you have more than 255 apps installed on the SDCard, then mounting !

Apps on the SDCard associate with an encrypted loop device, and there are only .

You have to go to Settings -> Manage Applications -> On SDCard, and move some a.

Please wait while booting ubuntu.img.. This can take some time...

Exiting chroot environment and sync'ing memory to storage..
DO NOT EXIT until finished - doing so may corrupt the ubuntu.img!

#

Then I minimize the Better Terminal emulator and go to AndroidVNC (following all the parameters to the letter in the 1st post) and here is my error:

vnc connection failed (127.0.0.1:5900) connection refused

I have tried many different passwords and addresses and absolutely nothing works...Once again I am able to run Debian without a problem at all.

Any Ideas?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much. :)
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] PercyR:
I get the same error message as above so will appreciate any solutions as well...
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Robbie P:
vjgrace, I just got the same error message as you. But then realised that I hadn't done the Terminal emulator bit beforehand since booting. This suggests that your problem is at the terminal emulator stage. I noticed that you added a "/" before "sdcard/ubuntu". try again typing exactly what the OP wrote in Post 1.

After "this may take some time..." wait 10 secs & then press the home button, then go to VNC

Good luck
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] vjgrace:
Thanks Robbie for your advice.

I tried it and yet again the same result, the syntax was identical to the first post but the same "connection refused" error.

Any other ideas...Did yours work after you corrected your syntax?

Thanks again,
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Weeman2k3:
sdcard or /sdcard is the same thing syntax wise

i also get the connection refused error, i'm running hyperdroid cm7 rom

does this work if you are dual booting Wp7 (nand) and android on SD?
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] hendydundy:
mirroring download..

Can someone please zip the .img file, downloading 3.5Gb is really killing my connection...

downloading from martin rhodes thread also have a problem, megaupload really slow... if someone have mediafire, i will be very thankfull...

thank you very much if some one can help...
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Robbie P:
Yes thebranded, it works dual booted wp7 and SD android. Vjgrace have u turned off any app killer, apart from that, don't know but still think problem is in first stage.
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] vjgrace:
Thanks Robbie for your input but I have tried everything but to no avail.

The most puzzling thing is that I have run debian without an issue whatsoever and it has a very similar procedure.

Thanks again
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] habitat22:
I have a few questions:

1. I only need the ubuntu.sh file and the .img file??

Or need I somthing else?

2. Works this with every Android build?

Im running imilka's Incredible Sense - Android 2.2.1, will this works??

3. Can I use every ubuntu program with this build??I want to use a Rom kitchen.

4. How is the speed??Can I overclock it? How is the battery life?

[HD2 Ubuntu Development] noamsch6:
Before launching Ubuntu...

Hi, a few questions...

1) Do I need to backup the sd card?

2) Running smoothly?

3) After launching Ubuntu, Android remains the same?

4) When launching Ubuntu and then rebooting does it saves data?

thanks anyway :D
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] iogrea:
1.- If you want... but doesn´t necesary.

2.- Takes a little to run the programs but then works fine.

3.- Yes, android remains the same.

Did you get the

"Exiting chroot environment and sync'ing memory to storage..

Error message?

If not, after typing the terminal emulator code, press the home button (not the back button) to exit terminal emulator. Then open VNC app.

If so, then I am not sure:)

and how to extract this,I use CMD and this command

but when try to open ubuntu.zip got error
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Robbie P:
Did you try the instructions at the start of that thread? I think I used bitzipper, but could have been 7zip as the OP stated.

Edit; I tried "copy ubuntu_01.zip + ubuntu_02.zip + ubuntu_03.zip + ubuntu_04.zip ubuntu.zip" on the four files I have and I cant uncompress the resulting ubuntu.zip either. However if you use 7zip and extract the first (01) file, the rest get extracted too. This should also work with the files you have downloaded. Please report back.

Best of luck.

I'm just curious, I'm 18, and will be attending college at the end of the summer UT to be exact, and I'm not sure what I want to do after I finish my basics. I'm going for computer engineer, but I'm not not sure that's what i'm exactly trying to do, I want to build my own phone, and send it to manufacturers, but I'm not sure what class I should be taking for this, or even where to start?

Am I taking the right course? Or am I way off?

You need to start looking into internship opportunities right away. Here's a good start:

[Off-topic] sutekidane:
If you really want to build your a phone from scratch, then you need to consider about electrical engineering instead. I am not implying CompE is a bad idea, but most school's CompE curriculum do not require the study of electromagnetic, fields/waves, communications, and barely touches on analog. Those courses are very essential to what you want to do. I am about to graduate in EE with a RF/microwave concentration, and these stuffs are no cake at all...
[Off-topic] shreddintyres:
From one Texan to another i welcome you to one of the best states in America.

That said you probably want to either go into hardware engineer, electrical engineering, or do a dual major in Computer engineering and Electrical Engineering.

Good luck bro.
[Off-topic] ECOTOX:
Definitely go with EE and CE dual major, if your gonna be building it yourself you'll need to know both sides, software and hardware. I'm personally going for Game Software development, but in regards to any software the same rules can be applied that you learn in any degree that involves programming. If your wanting to get into working on android you'll need C, C++ (kernel and some other aspects are in these) and Java for the UI. Also gonna need some xml, html, and it never hurts to know some lua and C# =) I here mono & .NET are coming to android too
[Off-topic] dougstoner:
I would agree, and a double major in C.E. and E.E. would probably be best, but be prepared. Engineering isn't easy. I just finished up a Mechanical Engineering degree, and I can't imagine doing a double major in it. Also, your school will have a lot of clubs/teams you can join that can help you network to find an "in". Our school had an aerial robotics team, robotics team, formula s.a.e., etc. A lot of big companies show up for competitions, and networking there would def help you get your foot in the door. Plus, putting this on your resume looks good as long as it's a related field. Good luck, and prepare to lose a lot of sleep.

props to you man thats pretty cool

@OP: I thought that this would be another lame question about what to do in life, seeking guidance, etc., but I see that you have an ambition and would merely want to know how to get there. Kudos to you, my friend, and I wish you succeed in life.

Refer to sig. You can't go off topic. Ever.

[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Since I bought a new sdcard (Lexar 16gb class 6) for my Milestone 2 I've been having a really annoying problem: It doesn't work well. The phone becomes irreponsible after a few minutes with the card inserted, PowerAMP nor Gallery can't scan media after a given time, and file explorers doesn't work at all, all of that collapsing to a full crash after 8 to 10 minutes (black screen, no response from keyboard or capacitive buttons whatsoever). So, my question is, does anyone have the same problem? I've tried doing this hack on my phone (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/increase-the-reading-speed-of-your-sd-card/) where the read_ahead_kb value is changed to a bigger value, but no dice (I thought since it has problem reading media, an increase of read speed would solve it). I have this huge sd card, with a performance near class 10 (about 9.8mb/s, tested on my notebook) and I can't use it. The card looks ok, I've almost filled it up with music on my notebook but when it goes to the phone, it's a disaster. I didn't tested with other class 6 or higher because I can't find one on Brazil (everything here is TOO expensive, they charge about U$100 for a class 6 card) and I can't import another right now, so right now I don't know if it's a problem with the card or if Milestone 2 has a problem with high capacity/high class cards. I'm using a 8gb class 4 right now, and it works perfectly,

So, does your sdcard performs well? What's its capacity and its class? Which brand?

Sorry for my english
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
There is a long thread about it somewhere and lots of people have this problem.
[Milestone 2 General] lambstone:
Nope, no problems with my Transcend 8gb Class 6. Perhaps its a card size or (less likely) the brand?
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Yeah I read the thread but I just refuse to believe that a 2010 device, which was a flagship can't handle this kind of card when my old Nokia from 2008 can handle it seamessly
[Milestone 2 General] adaimespechip:
This needs to go into the general forum I think, not the development forums :)

There is a thread in here somewhere that provides a change to a file which speeds up the read/write of your memory card.. maybe give that a go?
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Already tried that, didn't work.

Also, I believe that it's a problem with the software, the hardware is too new to not have compatibility with these cards. Maybe some dev has a solution or can find a solution, that's why I posted it here ;)
[Milestone 2 General] Mr. Clown:
Moved as not android development.
[Milestone 2 General] agent008my:
if i remember correctly, there was a long thread on this, and the resolution was to format the SD card while its in ur phone, soft reset, and that should solve the problem.

Clusters size of your SD card also influence its performance and stability.
