[Ubuntu Touch General] slayr76:
Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

Wise decision, let someone else flash it an don't brick your phone as no one knows what it could potentially do.
[Ubuntu Touch General] gummie:
I think I kinda got what the names of .img and .zip are for

recovery = its too obvious

system-armel = must be the OS that needs to flash via -w update

boot-armel = is the kernel

armel+maguro.zip = I don't know what this is but it needs flashing via recovery

[Ubuntu Touch General] Toxina:
but... I mean the site ends with "TouchInstallProcess", wasn't there a detailed instruction on HOW TO get it work on your GNEX actually? =o

Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

The installer is on Ubuntu 13.04 for a while already, think. Every time I connect my Nexus to my PC, it ask for the .img files.

I believe Canonical will release a PPA for Precise and Quantal too. Just like they did with the Nexus 7 installer.

So just wait :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] sam razzy:
Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

Guys wait.. Don't try it.. Because they are on their way to bring us guidance to install.. Now please DONT BRICK YOUR PHONES..

You wont brick anything, it's three files to fastboot and one to flash via their recovery.

[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
^^that's what i'm saying....<<<toro user so well see if that can brick lol
[Ubuntu Touch General] Rusty!:
Although you probably don't need to flash the .zip, it does indeed appear to be CM10.1
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
note the addition from my previous post.....also should i fastboot the boot on my toro?? can't hurt my bootloader can it?
[Ubuntu Touch General] ectodroid:
I'm having a hard time to resist trying to install these files :crying:
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
files are done i'm doing it....anyone can this boot.img hurt my toro's bootloader? if not i'll test
[Ubuntu Touch General] Rusty!:
There's nothing that's going to hurt your bootloader, but who knows if it will boot on a Toro
[Ubuntu Touch General] gummie:
I bet this guy is going to post screenshots on his next post. Just as what I think of, system>boot>recovery about the zip optional? For now I'm doing TiBu while downloading from a good Samaritan source. I will also redownload when Links are up because they need download counts for survery.

i expected a little bit more :x.
[Ubuntu Touch General] owenw:
OK... I just flashed the "recovery" image... which was just CWM 6.0.2.7. Weirdly, it expected a file called 'autodeploy.zip' when I started it, so we are missing something
[Ubuntu Touch General] sendhiloo7:
Guys ,

Please wait Now they removed all files from this ink :- http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch-preview/quantal/mwc-demo/

may they will uploaded newer file... So please wait .... :) :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] owenw:
Perhaps the system.img needs to be flashed in this method?
[Ubuntu Touch General] tschakk:
I did the same. Flashed all 3 .img files

then flashed the zip trough cwm recovery..

maybe they deleted the files, cause they're not working.. :)

getting PROFF shot...TORO booting up
[Ubuntu Touch General] sunshean:
i'm waiting so long.

but now i can't flash, think wrong bootloader
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
OK THIS IS TORO....... i simply fastboot....recovery...then system....then boot...then reboot to recovery and flashed the big zip...no wipes...Good luck

I didn't flash the small zip.... only the big one.

side note black screen while loading for about 30 seconds...and then black out first boot just waited and hit power and bam..up....also charge is working on toro...

Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

Maguro have radio. Toro don't.
[Ubuntu Touch General] Esteway.619:
Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

You got to remember that this is built for a GSM device not a CDMA. So a dev would have to ad what ever files needed for for our radios to work.
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
no this is a build rom..... meaning user data...numbers/facebook/contacts and tweets....might wanna drop this guys there is personnal data here
[Ubuntu Touch General] Garner:
Right let me get my head around this those files that are on rootz are they official files? And has the install got to be via fast boot etc? And I can't understand how someone has the links to the Ubuntu files but nothing showing on the Ubuntu touch install web page?
[Ubuntu Touch General] owenw:
Actually, they said earlier today that their will be "pre-populated data" and that users won't be able to put any contacts or anything in themselves.
[Ubuntu Touch General] julian_fern:
Re: Canonical releases Ubuntu Mobile

It may be just dummy data. We knew it would be filled with it, since it's a dev preview.
[Ubuntu Touch General] adambala:
they released them and then they close the page.....theese are the files.....we all waitting for the process......one guy try it and boot up at toro..
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
ok just making sure...don't want to let bad things out is all...anyone get this up on that GSM yet??
[Ubuntu Touch General] owenw:
Trying to get it on the GSM one here, but I don't have the 400MB file yet... still downloading :(
[Ubuntu Touch General] adambala:
i want to try but i dont want to brick my gnex...also i am waitting an important call
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
ok from here (remember i'm toro) very slow and just had a system crash. could be driver clash Good luck all
[Ubuntu Touch General] ectodroid:
flashing the 400 meg file atm on maguro

Success, it booted. It did not ask for simcard password, maybe it's only wifi ?

you flashed with img files

bootloader is ok

recovery is ok

but system img where to flash?

after that flash big zip file, ok but where to flash system img
[Ubuntu Touch General] kicker22004:
fastboot flash system (your system.img here)

no ()
[Ubuntu Touch General] sam.yaghoubi:
fastboot flash system "filename:.img

I think It's the way to flash system

Camera is working, browser is working.

The rest seems to be pictures.

They only took down the index-page for the folder holding the files.

Will be possible to use the preview as everyday OS when it's ready to release? I mean, i'm sure there will be bugs and instability,but will it be possible to have a ubuntu smartphone to call,messagging and connect to web just with the dev preview?
