[Asus Transformer TF700] GaryParr:
OK I just have to play devils advocate here. Do you own a cable or satelite box with DVR capabilities? If so, are you threatening to never buy one again unless your provider gives you the necessary tools and software packages required to hack the device and install Puppy Linux? Of course not. You could, but you don't because you think of the DVR as an appliance rather than a computer. Most people think of Android devices as appliances as well and to be honest, that is what they are sold as.

That said, the recent developments in Android tablets, the Transformer especially, have started to really blur this distinction. The advent of official dual-boot devices spurred by low-powered x86 chips and touch-enable versions of popular desktop operating systems will be the next step in the evolution. However, I honestly doubt Android will ever be more than an appliance OS. If you had a choice of the TF700 with Linux (pick your distro and assume all the touch-screen bugs were worked out) or Android which would you have chosen? Why would anyone limit themselves to the Android sandbox unless all they wanted was an appliance. Anyone who wants a real computer would chose the OS meant to provide the computer experience.

Anyway, I completely agree on the "Ubuntu on Android" you mentioned in your post. I can't wait to see if any device manufacturer sees the potential and jumps on it. Hell, would be more than awesome to see some crafty dev get their hands on the Ubuntu source for that and bake it into a custom ROM for this device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mackis:
I do have a Dreambox but it runs Linux so i dont have that problem there :) But you do have a point there :good:

And you are totaly right that the Transformer have started to blur the distinction, that was the reason i bought this for. I have a laptop that i installed Linux in and have it as a Mediacenter, this puppy is my mobile one. It sure does its job even if crippled compared to a full blows os, i don't say this because i don't like Android, i love Android and i think its paving the way for a dual boot or 2 coexisting OS like Ubuntu have in their vision. Android plays a big role in breaking the mental barriers that MS have put up that Linux is evil and a communist os. Android shows that its not, and shows that money can be made. If we just could harvest the full potential in this things it would be great.

By the way, define what a computer are. Today almost everything is.

Hi

I'm busy trying some custom ROM as i wanted to upgrade to android 4 (mainly for FLAC compatibility), to have app2sd and for the fun too ;)

I first tried CyanogenMod 10.0.0-RC0 marvel/marvelc ALPHA0 by modpunk then CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC2 marvel/marvelc ALPHA7 by modpunk and Cyanogenmod 10 builds (WIP) [MARVEL] [UNOFFICIAL] by benjamin.

I know none are "stable" ROM but anyway they are working quite good.

With the first, i had 3G issue so i forget about it.

With the 2 other, i could not manage to make the GPS to work.

On CM9, the icon show that the gps is working, but it's keeping trying to catch the signal or something else, i let it about 15-20 minuts but no position available...

On CM10 by benjamin, the icon doesn't even show up...

As my phone is my only GPS, i need this funcyionnality.

Any way to make it working?

Many thanks

Nico

That doesn't work for me. I notice my GPS is showing 0 for the latitude and longitude on a app to get the data. Its like it isnt trying to use the GPS at all.

Any ideas I can try? I would really like to have a working GPS again.

My Carrier for this phone is US Cellular. And its not a buzz so does anyone know where to get the correct radio for CM9 by cryptomilk if thats the issue?
[HTC Wildfire S] edu_stoicescu:
My advice is to use SpeedDroid ROM.Is CM9 ics bases 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 and GSP IS WORKING FOR ME.

Press thank's if i helped you ! Have a nice night !
[HTC Wildfire S] TULOA:
Does it support the CM9 Themes? And will I have to resetup apps and such? If so can you tell me where to get it so I dont get the wrong version?

Don't use a toolkit. Learn how to unlock bootloader and fastboot on your own as it is better than having it spoon fed

Let's not forget needs about toroplus.. don't need Verizon stuff on sprint. Adb is so easy! Use that! Toolkit is for halfa++ corner cutters

Seems to be a yakjuxw from the new screen shot. Since you have gsm, it's maguro. You should be getting the jb update already
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
You don't need to root it to load the factory image from Google. You only need the bootloader unlocked and you can do it through fastboot. Really very simple That's your best bet. As far as the first toolkit, I don't think there's any harm in using it specially if you're just going to use it to flash the factory image and unlock bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evostevo1:
Try going to menu, options, applications, scroll over to all applications and clear data on Google services framework, Then go to about phone, system updates. That's what I did for the ota jb.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JC0406:
Hmm okay thanks. That will void the warranty won't it? Is there a thread about it already in the development thread?

Tried that already. Doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
Do check out the threads made by efrant so you can see the processes for it. They're very simple and you'll learn a lot as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
Not really. If you want to claim warranty, you can always lock the bootloader. And just use the toolkit from the thread in the development section. Remember you only have to do 2 things, unlock bootloader and flash factory image for 4.1.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
I would agree with you completely. But I feel you're going to spend more time explaining it to someone who would rather take the easier way out than do all that. Yesterday had to explain to a 40 year old, father of two what adb was that I felt he was probably not ready to start sipping from the advanced user's method. I spent an hour trying to explain everything, what more if there was no toolbox?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
I agree with you, but if there is no toolkit, it won't be like this, people will have to learn adb and fastboot. Forces the newbs to learn adb and fastboot.

just use adb, everything is there you just can't access it ;)

Use adb is the better thing to do. You can use smart flash tool but with rooted files which will reinstall CWM and ROM.
