resolution settings

Hi, my phone, (THL T200 octo core 1.7 ghz 2gb ram 32gb android 4.2.2 and 1280x720 6" display) debian-kit install went smooth but, the resolution in the gui is too high. How do I change the resolution? Everything is tiny on the desktop.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
If you are using the "deb x" command to start xrdp then use the Android rdp app to change the resolution. If you're using vnc then you'll want to add "-g <width>x<height>" to the vnc server start command. I prefer rdp because then I'm not restarting vnc services ever time I connect with a different screen.

Thanks fort the reply. Before this though, I tried to reconfigure the rdp settings by deleting the connection and starting a new one with a another resolution, right after I finally got my favorite app, "keepnote" to install. Now I have a new problem. When I start deb x, I get the error, [xrdprunning in daemon mode with no access to pid files, quitting sesman] and cannot connect anymore to the gui. I just want to use this on my phone btw. I'm not trying to connect to my pc or any other external screen. Thanks

VNC works

leaving rdp for another day. I just googled vnc and found this site, [http://news.metaparadigma.de/linux-setting-up-a-debian-vnc-server-237/]. I setup VNC which seems to be working pretty well right now so I'm going to stick with that for now. Its only in landscape mode which I like better anyway so, i'm ok with it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
Welcome and sorry you're having issues. I'd try running "apt-get purge andromize-lxde" and then "apt-get install andromize-lxde" to uninstall and reinstall the rdp gui. I've had similar issues when installing packages that then remove something that rdp was using; usually when I install something not mint to be in my distro by modding the source lists.

Glad you got vnc working :thumbup: but like ya said it isn't as feature rich as rdp.

Loop1 is full

My loop1 device, 2g, is now full, preventing me from doing the apt-get purge andromize-lxde you mentioned. I don't think I've seen a solution to that somewhere, maybe if I continue googling around I'll figure it out eventually. How do I increase my storage here on the loop file? I have the space on my sdcard, internal and external. I figured I ran out of space after install libra office, synaptic and keepnote which I consider essential besides system packages.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
There's a few ways to increase your Linux OS space. I've seen some that have modified their existing image but every time I've tried it's turned out corrupted; usually I'll pop out the SD card and set up a partition with gParted for installing to. Another option would be to add system links (see Debian Kit's source code) and link your SDcards free space to a directory in Linux' system but doing that'll cause permission denied errors if not running as Linux root user when running software or scripts.

According to this website, [ http://www.tehfear.com/2007/10/08/resize-loop-disk-image/] changing the image size should be the same as how it was made. I haven't tried to get into that yet. My skills are not that good...

Like I said I have the space. Could you make another image file with the same debain-large but at least a 5gb loop that would leave room to install additional packages? Or is there a way I could choose the size of my loop file during installation?

http://www.timelesssky.com/blog/running-debian-armhf-alongside-android

It took some digging through my bookmarks but above is a guide (really amazing guide) to modify Debian Kit's source code for increasing the loop disk file size and how to run hard float Linux :) I too have yet to mess around with moding the loop disk much as setting up partitions is just easier. That and I've had my time devoted to making a new Crypto currency for our phones. Do you have a removable sdcard or is your device without that feature?

Yeah, I have a removable 32gb sdcard.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
Supper. If you're planning to use/re-install Debian Kit a lot then pop that sdcard out, back it up, and partition it (see the guide on xda in my sig for how to) with a size that you do want, then move your backed up info back to the first readable partition so Android can still see it, then reinstall Linux to the partition by running the mkdeb script and pointing it at the correct UUID. So long as you either note the UUID or don't reflash your device you can reinstall Linux to your hearts content on the partition instead of a loop disk file. This is what I did on my myTouch and when I do re-install Linux I just have to tell it to format the existing partition and it happily gives me 5+ gigs to play with. Note though that the second partition will be invisible to Android until Debian Kit has mounted it.

root ssh and xserver

Here is where I am now. I partitioned my sdcard to put 5gb aside for this install. Proceeded with the manual install after step 4 when I followed your guide here, [http://www.timelesssky.com/blog/running-debian-armhf-alongside-android ] to modified the mk-debain script and tried to do the larger loop file first. That was going fine until it turned out the 5120mb setting I did was too large still, the highest possible I guess on a fat32 system is 4gb. I then decided to just go with the partition setup. I install wheezy and everything seems ok. The problem I am having now is with the ssh login and the xserver you recommended at the end of your guide. Idk if its the order that I install things or what but, I am unable to elevate to root during ssh login and the xserver app, well, I'm not getting how it work. Do I have to create all those scripts you mention here, [http://www.timelesssky.com/blog/android-x-server ] to get it running? If so, when I create the scripts where do I put/save them to? Thanks

manaul install small

Beside what I already mentioned in above post, it seems like the manual install only install the core packages. I'm guessing that may be a cause of the issues that I'm having.

Update: I was right. I wasn't able to elevate to root because sudo wasnt installed due to the minimal install. Done. Now that I have taken care of that I just need to figure out the xserver. from what I saw on the app video on google play, the person has the device connected to a pc thats communicating the xserver. If thats the case then I rather skip it and stay with rdp and or vnc. I need the desktop environment to be executed and run on my device.

Update 2: I figured the Xserver xdsl. I can lunch the commands from the terminal on my device and it will appear on the running xserver app, (e.g: env DISPLAY=10.0.0.16.0 iceweasel). Its not perfect but, it works. Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
Well first off that's not my guide, just one I suggested, links in my sig are guides and scripts I've written. If you check Sky's guide though it'll state that the reason that 4+ gig loop disk file size worked is because the device was not on vfat file system... I'm not sure on your other questions quoted here as I use other methods than Sky such as using openssh and rdp for connections instead...

Ah very cool I'm glad you got it working :thumbup: which is something I've yet to do so you're blazing new trails :cool: on that front.

If you're feeling adventurous you can set an old device to mine crypto-currencies now without an android app; just got to be careful with any task that uses lots of resources. Or setup a Bramble/MPI system that shares resource load. Or setup a Android development environment for making apps or mods to your system... the options are endless....

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frz1:
Just wondering S0AndS0, what device is your installation on because I was thinking about your no root install which disables some of the android services and boots Linux and I believe you stated that way works best to get the android xserver gui but, would you still be able to use phone features?

updated: BTW, forgot to point out that I went back to running RDP with the xfce desktop which is much better. The xserver interface is not very usable on my install to my opinion as the app windows are very disproportionate and not resizable.

PS. How do we get the sound working?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0AndS0:
I've installed Debian Kit's form of Linux on an old myTouch 3G 7" pro (US model) all of which where rooted and still are. I've yet to try any of the noroot methods because I've yet to have sufficient reason to go through it all.

Yeah the GUI on Android/Linux system is more of a novelty. XRDP through the "deb x" command will allow for resizing windows; just "right-click" the window bar and select resize. Oh don't foget to turn off Linux's screen saver ;) as there's no reason to wast the battery power on that.

I've seen other's that have gotten audio and video support... I'll see what I can dig up in my bookmarks for ya...

1. I don't want to flash another ROM

2. I wan't to root my Phone for apps e.g. AdBlocker

what are you trying to flash? if you are using the link I sent you use the CEE versions (second one) As the CN one you have to flash 3 files instead or the 2 on the CEE one.

I have flashed that may times and it always works you might have to extract the .SBF file out of the zip folder. The RSD lite I have will do it for you but not sure if the older versions do.

So from when I first got the phone, the stock browser displays "location unavailable" on the Google home screen(even sitting next to another Android device running stock browser that can find the location).

Same here, I've just changed from Windows phone to Android (various reasons) and I have just got myself an Atrix so I can use the lapdock (arriving shortly) and to complete the kit I have the work and play kit on the way also :)

I have had the Atrix for about a week and I have to admit I am also a little confused as to which is the 'best' rom for lapdock support, from what I read it appears that Webtop only exists in Gingerbread as it does not appear to work in ICS or JB and searching for Webtop roms lists hundreds of results which are very hard to follow.

So for the sake of us Atrix newbs please could someone recommend a good Webtop rom or even list roms with Webtop enabled so we can have a play ourselves?
[Atrix 4G General] MastaGunZ:
I want 4.0 or higher, but with all the features working, fingerprint scanner, etc. I don't necessarily want the webtop mode, but is there a 4.0+ rom that has all the features working, not very buggy or slower than 2.3, and when I put it into the lapdock,I want it to just make the screen resolution bigger for android, like a tablet.

Yes I too am a little confused to the whole custom roms and stuff, just because of all the hassle it seems. I can't really figure out which rom is the 'best'
[Atrix 4G General] dr_strangetrick:
Hey MastaGunZ, flashing is really quite easy once you have your Atrix unlocked its a matter of downloading the rom (which is a single zip file) onto your micro-sd and going into the recovery mode.

Use Titanium backup and that takes care of backing up sms, apps and app data Its really easy, trust me :)
