I found this very usefull website on how to install a fully functioning ubuntu linux operating system on your android device. I would think that your sdcard needs to be a pretty large size. But for developers and even users that want to get a taste of what linux is like this might be fun to try and mess around with. "Linux on the go" =D

[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
This is awesome, will be trying tomorrow, thanks.
[EVO Shift 4G General] peanjr:
Thanks for the link. Its on the to do list. Lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I tried it on ubuntu 11.10 oneiric but when I booted it it was just a black screen with a mouse lol. Not sure what went wrong in the process, here's the main website.

[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
I can't even get past step 3.

Im just typing the commands.

heres what I get

[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
You need to install rootstock first. $ sudo apt-get install rootstock
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
Ahh. That would make sense :D. lol. Thanks sparks.
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
So last question, I've done everything now I have the ubuntu.img and the tgz copied over onto a folder in my SD-Card. How exactly am I supposed to run it from here?
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Once again here is the main website...download the normal .zip replace your ubuntu.img in the .zip and zip it up again. At least that's what I did.

http://androlinux.com/

Or you can try their .zip package but I haven't had time lately to try theirs.
[EVO Shift 4G General] mynameisnafe:
Nny luck?

I tried this on my Sony Xperia arc s a few times with no joy, have you had any luck?

I rootstocked an Ubuntu 10.4

Basically for me his scripts didn't work on the phone. I plan to try again soon though.. I'm wondering if it can be done the other way around ;)

[EVO Shift 4G General] mynameisnafe:
Yup

I already have those (though to be air it took me til last night to root the 404 ICS, I was on beta when I tried this hack first)..

I found the androlinux site a while back, before I even had my arc! I've seen installer apps on the market for ubuntu n the like but I'd like to do it myself, as an exercise in Ninja Skills..
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I was trolling. Sorry about that.

I just use a PC for Linux dude.
[EVO Shift 4G General] mynameisnafe:
I figured lol, I use a pc too

If I can chroot Ubuntu into android.. Surely I can do it the other way round, right?
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I believe you would need an emulator..
[EVO Shift 4G General] mynameisnafe:
? You mean like the emulator hack? I want to phone people off my laptop lol, it has a sim card slot..
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
There's really no practicle uses for android on linux.. Android is limited in many ways compared to linux as far as functionality goes. Find some software to use your sim card and you should be able to use it NP.
[EVO Shift 4G General] mynameisnafe:
It would be cool to intergrate parts though.. Imagine Ubuntu with a dialler on the main bar, texting built into empathy.. I hear you can run apks in linux too.. It would be a better way for tablets I reckon.
[EVO Shift 4G General] psyck:
OK so when I type:

sudo apt-get install rootstock

I get:

E: Unable to locate package rootstock

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04.

Anyone know where I can get repository or ppa for rootstock??
[EVO Shift 4G General] megaghostgamer:
What is this?? Just basically ubuntu on android??

Did anyone found a fix yet for the problem that can't send messeges when coneccted t

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Sure haven't. I just use CM7 now since it has the 2/4g toggle in notification... I just deal with it now, until a new baseband is out for us, I don't think it will be fixed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
What type of messages? I email, text and mms all day. I've only had 1 time where a picture failed to send and I restart solved that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
No there is a group of people that can not send only SMS over 4g. mms and everything is alright just sms... it sends over 2g and wifi but only 4g it wont send.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Wow that's weird. I'm on 4G and texting right now.

Sounds like a APN or something. This on T-Mobile or another carrier?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
That is really bizarre. Do you all have the same phone model by chance? Could be a hardware issue?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
It used to work well but because of some incident, though not confirmed yet, there is us in that group that can't send mms when 4g in on. As if sms wont trigger the 2g/gsm switch for it to be able the sms to be send.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
There is a setting in the LG hidden menu that could fix it, but LG has not implemented it. Under modem settings there is a CS/PS preference (Carrier Signal/Packet Switched). You want that set to CS. Almost no carrier in the world has implemented PS sending for sms. When you select CS you get a toast message that says not implemented yet. If LG had implemented that setting to the baseband it would fix this problem. It appears the issue is that automatic CS fallback has been turned off. When on on 2G or wifi, sms message are sent by CS by default. On 3G and 4G, for some stupid reason, Android tries to send them first on PS, then when it cannot be sent that way, the modem is supposed to auto-fallback to CS and send the sms. For some reason instead of performing the fallback the modem is just throwing up a general error and giving up. If anyone can figure out how to issue a command to the modem and turn auto-fallback back on I think it would fix this issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mingkee:
I don't have such problem (sending text) when the phone displays "H" (I use Eagleblood AOSP ROM because I don't like 2G/4G).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
If only someone with your knowledge had a Tad bit more lol. You know way too much as it is bro. I'm pretty much just set on the fact that I have to be patient and wait and hope for a baseband update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Hopefully in the near future.

If only we can have a kdz for the march baseband, maybe it will revert the settings to a working state.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Everything I have ever read about updating basbands was to NOT REVERT to old basebands will brick them that's on old HTC things I have no clue on anything else though. Those were also flashable through bootloader so idk.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Has anyone tried using the KDZ method to do an emergency restore of the Gingerbread firmware and baseband? That seems like it could fix the issue if during the process it resets all the baseband settings.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
already tried it but a no go...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Talk about a bold move lol, but I figured it wouldn't fix it or go smoothly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
I use Google Voice for my SMS and don't send MMS. If I need to send a picture or whatever I'll use Dropbox or email.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FeloHFP:
S

Is not mms is sms only, only it happends when is connected to 4g network, when i am in 2g netwkrk, uma wifi calling or data disable it works fine. Is like the phone forgot the command to switch to 2g network to send sms message and then switch back to 4g. One doesnt see this switch because it happends in seconds
[T-Mobile LG G2x] matzwolf:
Well I still have the problem. My carrier cannot help me they have tried everything at this point they are asking me to return the phone.

I really wish this was fixed!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lanlee212:
Any one made any head way to fix this I'm about to call Tmobile for a replacement phone if no one has a fix.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Someone said they did and they sent him a data packet or something through the phone to fix it and it fixed until they rebooted the phone and it went back. I've just been switching data off when I'm in the middle of a conversation with someone. Let me know how that goes with T-Mobile, I need to do so myself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lanlee212:
I'll have my girl tell at them tell they replace so I'll let you know how it goes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Haha, sounds good man.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Momo1176:
Had issue's with mms but flashed weapon r and flashed the stock SMS zip. No issues since. Have not had SMS issues at all.

I've had some issues with people not getting my SMS sometimes, but it says "sent" in my log. This 2g/4G problem, does it straight up fail or does it appear to work but never get there?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
It depends on what rom you are using. If it is cm7 based, it will say sent but wont get there. Stock based, gb 2.3.3/4 and 2.2, will say not sent.

Hi, I'm Rob from the Netherlands, how are you guys doing ?

After getting a Samsung Galaxy Gio for my B-day (Jan 9th), I've been sucking up a lot of information in the Gio section, before registering.

Today I thought I'd sign up and join the fun ! I have a lot to learn about flashing and stuff, but hopefully I'll catch on quick, and will be able to help out other members too.

I usually spent my time in a big Wii hacking community, but there hasn't been much new stuff in the last few months, so I'd like to learn more about Gio hacking :)

I already managed to root my phone, flash my stock rom 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 via Odin, install Flash Player support through CWM, and most importantly sim-unlock my phone with the help of this very nice forum !

I think I will have a lot of fun here.

Full phone memory

Hi,

I am beginner forum. I just bought a Galaxy Gio and after I installed some applications, the phone is already full. I would like to ask if I root phone can install applications directly on the memory card? Phone will work better after root? I mean that sometimes moves very slowly, has lagged. I want then I put a 4 GB card. Do you think it's ok?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] manpildo:
Rooting alone won't make your phone magically faster, it will merely grant you root privileged access. However, with root you will be able to uninstall some of the proprietary software you might not use and you will be able to use App2SD to install all your apps on your SD card.

-anything

Then I'am more then willing too answer them.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] koodiifin:
You can try Link2SD from the Market, as long as you have root it will even work on the Gio stock ROM. It does two important things:

-Manages the native App 2 sd feature build into the Android OS

-Enables you to "Link" (move) apps to a second partition on your SD card. (keep in mind that if you are on a stock ROM, then it will only support a second partition formatted as FAT16/32 (NOT EXT2/3/4))

[Networking] AnyMal:
Ever since AT&T launched its (limited) LTE network one concern seems to come up quite often in discussions: if you're on a tiered data plan you better watch out. The reasoning used is that with a dramatic increase in data speed you will likely run out of your allowance very quickly.

Now, perhaps I am completely misguided in my logic, but this fear simply does not add up. The amount of data you use is entirely dependent on your consumption habits. For example: if you send/receive 50 emails everyday, browse the web for two hours, and stream music for, say two hours each day, plus do your regular facebook/twitter interactions, then how being on LTE will result in greater data consumption then being on HSPA? Am I overlooking something here?

Thread moved to Networking.
[Networking] slick69:
When you see that youtube video, you might click on it and when it loads instantly in HD you'll keep watching when on a slower connection you might get frustrated and give up.

As speeds and convenience increase, we find ourselves doing more and more on our phones.
[Networking] AnyMal:
Well, that is my point exactly; unless you begin to consume more you shouldn't be concerned about increased data speeds. It's perfectly possible to exceed your allowance even if you're on HSPA still.
[Networking] slick69:
You can't ignore human nature though. People will start to consume more with increased data speeds.

Corporations don't ignore human nature either when promoting these speeds and the usage that accompanies them - they know that more people will sign up with increased data speeds.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
I have to say that looks just about like past MIUI iterations. And I agree with what someone said earlier in the thread, the launcher does look quite dated. Quite frankly I never did like MIUI because I'm not a fan of imitating the iPhone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clyzm:
God damn that music app is beautiful.

As much as I hate MIUI's lack of app drawer, I love how everything is skinnable and gets updated frequently with useful content.

Also they just seem to have a better handle on interface design than any manufacturer or in some places even Google themselves.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
You are using Android, and you are on a forum called XDA-developers. Presumably you care a little bit about software freedom, openness, being able to tinker and not be limited by what some vendor tells you to do.

So what the hell are you doing with MIUI?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clyzm:
So you're telling people who take advantage of software freedom by using the software of their choice to not use the software they like?

Seems a bit counter-intuitive don't you think?

In fact the very idea behind the "freedom" of Android is the release of free source code for developers to do whatever they want with. The developers behind MIUI just happen to be making something you dislike.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mbargerhuff:
Miui is actually pretty cool if you replace the launcher; the built in customizations are pretty in depth. I agree with most in that I hate the stock launcher and iPhone appearance, but that all easily goes away with ADW or Go!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noobdeagle:
i hope that music app will work on other roms, that looks amazing vs the stock android music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kindiboy:
Sorry my eyes can't justify going back to MIUI after ICS.

The Music.apk from MIUI usually works across the different roms. I'm pretty sure you can install it and get it working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
I have to agree here. Stock ICS is damn good. I used to install all sorts of roms on my N1. I flew stock on my NS for the 9 months I had that, I don't see that changing with the GN, really digging what they've done with this phone and OS.

Its a very very good rom, just not the Android style.
