Hi everyones...I think it's time for a new thread, previous ones were good enough to setup ubuntu on the folio but with natty, support for arm and tegra should be much improved...

Sadly, I tried to get a booting system with previous method with --dist natty but it did not worked ! I tried

sudo rootstock --fqdn nvidia-tegra --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --imagesize 16G --dist natty --serial ttyS0

from here : elinux.org/Installation_Detail

inspired from ; wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch

no boot, got nearly frozen soon after boot with repeated error cpu sleeping for more than 120s !

anyone ?
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
I haven't already tried to get natty on the folio, but I guess it would not work because of the kernel version..

Natty usually comes with 2.6.38..

But the folio comes with 2.6.32...

So I think it wouldn't be as easy as installing it on a x86/64 system...

Can you post a picture of your screen after freezing?

Or type down what's on the screen?
[Folio 100 General] rodeo_fly:
Hi, here's a shot done with my cam...

I used armel file for ubuntu found overthere :

elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Natty_11.04_2

but it stucked same way...here's a snapshot !

!edit!

tar xvz ubuntu-10.10-r7-minimal-armel.tar.xz
echo "dev /dev tmpfs rw 0 0" >> ./etc/fstab

from here

lguegan.free.fr/article.php3?id_article=29

then it goes a bit further...i though i had kinda login input...naaah then every 5s it prints this :

"init: tty02 main process (xxxx) terminated with status 1"

arrg !
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
like I said in my post above..

I guess the problem is the kernel version which is too small for natty...

You can try to port the mach-tegra tree and some other driver parts to the newest kernel version and run natty again..

Maybe this will work...

Unfortunately I'm not owning a folio.. I just lent it from somebody, but I gave it back to him a few days ago, so I'm not able to test porting it..
[Folio 100 General] rodeo_fly:
why do you say kernel is not good ?

I don't understand

with correct options, rootstock should build a correct kernel, when I use armel natty image, it's natty's kernel ?

Could you briefly explain the booting process of folio and kernel issues ?

I'm downloading from github this

github.com/mblaster/linux_2.6.32_folio100

should just copy paste the arch/ tree in my / ?

see ya
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
No its much more complicated..

You have to be able to cross-compile your kernel..

I already explained it here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13628768&postcount=4

You have to download the source you posted above and then clone the actual source from kernel.org

For example:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.38.6.tar.bz2

After that you have to move the folder

Folio_source/arch/arm/mach-tegra

to

kernel.org_source/arch/arm/

And much more things..

After that you have to cross-compile it and fix some errors which may occur...

So you have to got knowledge in compiling a kernel source and in C++ programming!

Hi,

I have built natty for ubuntu but i have problems with X11 not running as expected.

No time right now to debug but will try ASAP.

is there any way to pause the camera while recording video? it was on the s1 and like every other phone ive had, ability to pause the camera..

did they really remove it and say adding in a video clip cutting app is the same thing? just like how they removed picture settings like saturation, sharpness, and brightness because they added a watered down picture editor.. wtf?

Just wondering if anyone has actually gotten into the Music Beta program yet. I applied a few hours ago, with no reply, but I'm sure they are getting a ton of requests.
[General Questions and Answers] romuloxiii:

[General Questions and Answers] Vettesfan:
I applied, but I would expect it to take a couple of weeks for acceptance replies to come. At least that is the way it was for Google Wave.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VisualOddity:
I hate that if I try to fire up the camera for a quick snap, and the battery is low, it will give me a low battery error before closing the app, and I don't get to take a pic...

Is there any way around this? I searched but didn't see anything...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
The camera requires juice to snap a picture. If there's not enough juice it won't even try. Charge the battery. That's the only way around it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VisualOddity:
I think that while that is true (that it has to have power to do so), it does not apply here, This is a software restriction, and therefor should be able to be altered. I am unable to take a picture even at %10-%15, which is WAAAY more than it requires physically. ALL of my other phones would allow the camera to be active until the point that the device actually powers off, this one does not, which is software/firmware related...

So? :D
[Xoom General] bsbokc:
Xoom coming to sprint tomorrow still $599. I don't know if I am just easy out of the loop on this or what and a google search told me nothing. But I went into my sprint store today and they told me that the xoom is launching tomorrow. They even offered to let mar have one today but I'm not interested. Just thought I would let you guys know if you didn't already. Like I said couldn't find out on google.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Xoom wifi is being sold in stores.
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
It was available on the store officially 5/8, I ordered mine last night, can't wait!!! Love that I can charge it to my account and pay it off on my own time. :)
[Xoom General] gerald410:
Me too! 10 chars
[Xoom General] bsbokc:
How do you do that. I would jump on this if I could do that.
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Wouldn't you have to pay it off on the next bill? I don't like charging stuff to my account because I'd rather pay for it in full. I didn't know you can essentially finance equipment.
[Xoom General] bossjeeves:
That is the way it has always worked with my account...
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Just make sure you dont get caught up dude @ the guy who said he would pay it off at his own pace.
[Xoom General] marctronixx:
the xoom was released on sunday. i ordered one and have it now. none of the stores had it in stock.. perhaps tomorrow they will. i sold my 3G version....

and yes you can charge equipment to your account.
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
I'm a girl btw, and I was told by the Sprint collections department that you do not have to pay it off in full the next billing cycle, that there is no time limit as long as they see you are paying on it, so we will see.

EDIT TO ADD: I was told that I had no limit on my account, not sure if that has anything to do with it. I know Sprint implements "spending limits" to some customers and some have no limit, so not sure if this has anything to do with it.
[Xoom General] slowrey:
Too bad they don't have a 3/4G version available. Would love to add it to my unlimited plan.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
That's the most insane thing I've heard in a while. I've never heard of anyone doing this. So you're going to float your bill and pay fees and other penalties until you can afford to pay it off? If you have even a slightly good credit rating you could get a $600 credit card with 0% for a year probably...
[Xoom General] marctronixx:
i added a couple of mobile phones several years ago to my account--not at the same time but one was one year and then a year later or so..

anyway, i paid the mobile handset off across 2 billing cycles at least (phone was like 600 ish then) and had no fees or extra costs.

the main thing was paying your wireless bill on time.

home girl's case may be solid and unique to her case so i am inclined to believe her based on my past experience.

you must not have any limits or ASL on your account and be in good standing with no past due balance. im sure you may know this...
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
From what I was told purchasing "equipment" doesn't incur fees, only your service bill does. I will still pay my service bill on time but the equipment I charged will be paid off in payments. After searching online I too am seeing conflicting information regarding this, so now I'm slightly leary. Worst case scenario I will be sending it back if what I was told was false. :)
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Yeah I've been with Sprint for like 7 years since I was in high school. I don't have a spending limit on my account and pay my bill in full every month and never had one late payment. I don't like to bill to my account but to each is own.

I prefer to just pay it in full just be to be on safe side of things. Good luck with your purchase though but just make sure you call to verify the payment plan options because it's harder to get things fixed when they are screwed up.

I'm only saying to call because every time I call Sprint I get conflicting information and nobody seems to know what they are doing. Also if you want to check your Sprint Credit Worthiness log into your Sprint account then delete the address bar and replace it with this:

javascript:function getYesNo(s){if(s=='Y') {return 'Yes';}else{return 'No';}};alert("Your Hidden Stats:\n\nSprint Financial Value: "+loyaltyAccVal+" of 10 (higher is better)\nCredit Class: "+creditClass+"\nAccount Spending Limit: "+getYesNo(aslFlag)+"\nHotlined Account: "+getYesNo(hotlineFlag));

and hit enter. A box will pop up and that will show you. I believe it would be correlated to the results if they will allow you to bill to your account.

Mines shows:

Sprint Financial Value: 7 out of 10

Credit Class: G1

Account Spending Limit: No

Hotlined: No
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
Well I've gotten conflicting info when calling. When I speak to sales they have no idea and put me on hold to find out and then tell me it has to be paid in full after speaking with the "collections department", when I spoke to someone in billing I was told that it doesn't have to be paid in full and many customers have "made payments" on purchases billed to their account. I would love to pay for it in full but I can't shell out $600 at once so that's why this option appealed to me, if it turns out that's not the case as I stated before I will give them hell and worst case scenario return the equipment.
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Yeah just looking out for you. I always call multiple times and ask for a manager because there are a bunch of nifnards working for Sprint.
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
LOL isn't that the truth! Its going to really piss me off if that's not how it works for my account as I was really looking forward to getting the Xoom and accessories I ordered. I hate calling there because I can never get a straight answer about anything, and the order is already out for delivery so too late to cancel if that's true, I will truly give them hell if I was given false information.
[Xoom General] marctronixx:
there is no pay plan. they give you about 2 bill cycles which is plenty. if you need more time, make sure you are showing good faith--by paying your wireless bill and also paid a good portion of yourequipment--this gives you good favor with the account rep and they may be more inclined to help.

we all want to pay our balances off at once--however sprint extends this as a courtesy to their good customers. if you know you can afford the device you can maximize your purchasing power in a short time period.
[Xoom General] trhonda2000:
I did call accounting services again to confirm my initial answer towards this. I was told there is no official "payment plan" per say, however they do not "require" you to pay the equipment off the following billing cycle. He did mention as long as you are paying your cell bill and making payments towards the balance there should be no problems, however he recommended that its paid off in a "timely manner". So yep, basically what the poster above me said. We shall see...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dysrhythmic:
Is there anyway to get websites that use drop-down menus to behave correctly on the Transformer? Certain websites show the menus when highlighting or clicking them on a PC, but everytime it is tapped on the Transformer it will attempt to load the link, often times failing. The website that comes to mind is Mint.com. Selecting cateogies for transactions is a huge pain with the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedoig:
I haven't specifically tried it on my TF, but on my phone I do sort of a cross between a tap-and-hold and a swipe which gives you the equivalent of a hover. It's kind of hard to explain, but basically tap and hold on the drop-down but move your finger before you would get the long-press options.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dysrhythmic:
Thanks for the response. That tip works on the tablet. However, I'm still unable to click certain things on Mint.com. specifically the "edit details" button under each transaction. I also tried clicking it with the mouse pointer but had no luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedoig:
I go back and forth between the stock browser and Opera. Both have their advantages, and when one doesn't work well for something I switch to the other. One of the nice things about Opera is that it uses hardware acceleration so it's noticeably smoother on a lot of sites.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dysrhythmic:
The "edit details" button works in Opera Mini, but bedoig's trick for drop down menus doesn't. Hopefully, they come out with an update to enable the default browser to click with more accuracy. I love the hidden browser menus (bookmarks, back, refresh, etc.).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedoig:
Sorry, I was actually referring to Opera Mobile. Mobile renders content on the device, whereas Mini renders it on Opera's servers then sends you a compressed version. Not sure if Mobile would give you different results in this case, but thought I'd clarify anyway.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dysrhythmic:
Opera Mini actually works better on Mint.com than Opera Mobile. I can't even select transactions with Opera Mobile. Though it takes two different browsers, I'm happy that I can edit my transactions without having to be on my PC.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dolphinwigs:
:confused: I see a couple people but where are all the roms? google even released 2.3.4 source but I haven't seen the explosion of developement for this phone yet. despite a few issues this phone is one badass phone. after i got one without screen bleed and really sunk into it this phone is better that any android i've ever used and has features the Samsung Galaxy S 2 won't have such as nvidia tegra 2 which in my opinion is a much more solid piece of hardware and a much more well known company than the one on the SGS 2. and Smartshare, Ultra dolby digital mobile!!! this phone is the ****! plus i heard bionix was coming to this phone via team whiskey! I see faux released a rom and he doesn't even have the phone! we have a good start but....

Where are the devs!!!??? please we need you people. you guys make phones these expensive things worth purchasing for the insane amounts of money they cost. oh mighty development lords, please develope!

You also have to remember that out dev section is split between the o2x and g2x. These two forums should be combined.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Totally disagree, maybe for someone with some flashing experience yes, but for noobs it would be a total mess, flashing o2x roms on g2x phones... not to mention wrong kernels, maybe even radios...not a nice thought..

+1 would be a disaster.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I agree development is slower than I'd expected..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
I was gonna make a ROM, but the stock ROM with Titanium Backup is best for me. If you build AOSP you lose the awesome Camera app that LG wrote and you lose all the cool apps that come with the G2x.

For me I just uninstall the apppack app and freeze the wifi calling app and I'm good to go.

I tried the GB build and it had GPS issues and didn't have the nice camera app.

So I'm happy with the stock setup with a few tweaks.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dolphinwigs:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dolphinwigs:
i agree. guess i feel spoiled from all the vibrant support. i figured this phone would explode fast in dev. since we had root so fast and dual core, plus being a google phone. hopefully t-mobile gets off their ass and releases the official gingerbread like they promised before i purchased my phone (which was the ONLY reason i even was ok with purchasing an android 2.2 again). maybe that'll fix the problem ttabbal was talking about with the kernels.

For the past week or so, I've been having issues where I will drop to 1X in places where I would usually get a steady 3G signal. I'll have two bars (-85 dB), and show 3G, but when I actually go to use the data connection it drops to 0 bars and switches over to 1X. If I stop accessing data for a brief period it will return to normal.

Does anyone have any ideas? I had been using the 11.19 radio, but flashed back to 9.01 and saw no improvement. I've done the "update roaming capabilities" a few times, and every time after I've flashed a radio. I'm running CM7.0.3. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildstang83:
I was having data issues like yours in cm7.0.3. I don't think your alone in this situation. Other people have had trouble with this as well. I don't think its a radio problem because I swapped radios with the same results each time. I would roll back to an earlier cm release and wait for the next update. That's what I'm doing.

Ah, I didn't think the ROM really had anything to do with reception. Glad I checked, thanks.
