Wouldn't even know where to start with raring on this device lol. I just turned it on after sitting on the touchstone for 3 months. Got nsboot on it and whipped all the old ROMs that were on it to install 13.04 by itself. But wold like this also.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:

Should we report and update yet?

Would love to see a new image based on Saucy. Any directions on how to build it ourself for the Touchpad?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Yeah... I got saucy booted... Can't get the wireless to work though... the unmount proc trick no longer seems to work. Hmmm.... Used the latest evervolv stuff.... Wifi works, but the network manager cannot see it.... Something to do with proc and the lack of fanotify, is my bet.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
notes to get wifi working without network manager

ubuntu_chroot

iwconfig wlan0 essid "tadaow"

ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.99 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

route add default gw 192.168.1.1

edit /etc/resolv.conf and add nameserver 8.8.8.8

Saucy has the font problem fixed.... Other then that.. not much to see....

I can post the latest if you like... or whatever... hmmm Time to talk to Dr. Marble and that one guy who was able to get this working on his own.

Just updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/tenderloin with all the infos, instructions and known problems I found scattered all over this thread ;)

Maybe someone look over it, just in case I made mistakes
[Other TouchPad Development] vqstaphbeard:
Looks good!

The Ubuntu Touch tenderloin wiki looks good, thanks for the update! I notice it has the quantal image. I've seen mention of raring in this thread and hopes of saucy. Can one substitute a current nightly as the ubuntu image during first flash? Also, as far as updating, I've seen mention of using ADB and/or terminal via sudo apt-get update. Do both work equally well or is one better than the other? Lastly what would happen if one ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade via terminal? Thanks again for everything!
[Other TouchPad Development] Daughain:
I downloaded the files from the first post, installed in order, and the TP shuts off after a glimpose of the evolv splash screen. Where did I screw this up??
[Other TouchPad Development] blmvxer:
How can we bring saucy builds over?

---------- Post added at 11:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 AM ----------

You wanna do sudo apt-get update to read all of the repositories, and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to read and start installing the updates. :) but I can't get adb to work, the tablet reboots when trying to access the Ubuntu chroot.
[Other TouchPad Development] chris5s:
I've looked at the wiki ... is anyone still working on getting this ported properly to the Touchpad?

Thanks for all the useful posts here, and of course those involved in the OP and updating the wiki.

how to set keyboard ??

can anybody give a step by step process of fixing the keyboard issue!! tnx in adv. :)

[Other TouchPad Development] vinodlingamsetty:

after updating the ubuntu-session i zipped the the files and started installing from zip it gives me errors

visit goo.gl / o6o5dv
[Other TouchPad Development] chris5s:
I made the changes in build.prop and the file containing GRID UNIT PX which seemed to fix fonts/keyboard issue, but changes didn't persist after a reboot.

Overall touch response was a bit laggy and hit and miss but its a nice interface and full of promise.

Doesn't seem a real goer for the tp tho without full dev support, which is a shame.

Kinda understandable tho I guess ...
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Just wait... that rom was phablet.. the new one is saucy...

I got touch, wifi working.. but then I messed up something.. =) sensorservice

Anyways.. just wait.
[Other TouchPad Development] chris5s:

Things to do (thanks to ogra and w-flo)

1.Fix ramdisk

a) change touch script

b) add udev rules (for lvm)

c) add binaries lvm and e2label

----------------------------------------------------

Things to do to /system

1.add ts_srv

2.create /vendor/etc/audio_effects

----------------------------------------------------

Things to do to /data

1. add fstab to /etc

2. add udev rules (for lvm)

3. add 70-tenderloin.rules

4. comment update-fstab from lxc-android-boot.conf

5. add init.rc to overrides??? Doesn't seem necessary??? (changed sensor to main)

6. ubuntu-touch-session-setup.conf to get phablet to restart???? (sleep before running, oddly enough)

7. edit init.tenderloin.rc to add ath6kl.ko to load for overrides... required for wifi

8. powerd does not respawn and enable debugging (not necessary to comment out respawn!)

Stuff I have to do to kernel

*Add stuff from the porting guide without proc patch

*enable cgroups and use a patch to add /sys/block/cgroups at boot

* CONFIG_TMPFS_POSIX=y (w-flo, thanks!)
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Yay.. now to get the timing down.. it now works automatically.
[Other TouchPad Development] atrix4g18:
Keep up the great work!
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
More notes. Going to test sound today. Posting this for people who would like to compile themselves without waiting for me.

fstab in /etc/fstab

# override the forced fsck from /lib/init/fstab, we use a bindmount which confuses mountall

/dev/root / rootfs defaults 0 0

# swap file

/SWAP.swap none swap sw 0 0

# added by lxc-android-boot for /system

/dev/dm-8 /system ext4 ro,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 0

# added by lxc-android-boot for /data

/dev/dm-10 /data ext4 noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 0

# added by lxc-android-boot for /vendor (justin added this comment, it was not added by lxc)

/system/vendor /vendor auto ro,bind 0 0

/system /var/lib/lxc/android/rootfs/system auto ro,bind 0 0

last line is a hack job.

Had to disable update-fstab

What else

*ubuntu-touch-session-setup.conf*

author "Ricardo Mendoza <ricmm@ubuntu.com>"

start on (started udev

and started dbus)

stop on stopping dbus

env user=phablet

export user

script

sleep 60 (working on this today, lowering the number, service starting to soon???? something???)

start ubuntu-touch-session USER=phablet

end script

*RAMDISK STUFF*

Touch Script

mountroot()

{

# list of possible userdata partition names

partlist="userdata UDA DATAFS USERDATA"

/bin/lvm vgscan

/bin/lvm vgchange -ay

/bin/e2label /dev/store/cm-data DATAFS

/bin/e2label /dev/store/cm-system system

/bin/e2label /dev/store/cm-cache cache

udevadm trigger

udevadm settle

UDEV Rules for Ramdisk and Touch

56-lvm.rules

60-persistent-storage.rules (dm-* is removed)

60-persistent-storage-lvm.rules

85-lvm2.rules

(Probably not necessary for all of these, but oh well.. the goal is to get /dev/disk/by-id and by-label and by-uuid?)

e2label and lvm have been compiled staically, as such the kernel is now over 7MB.

Sources are from Milaq.. perhaps we can try jcsullins soon... lvm and e2label were compiled in Ubuntu 13 on the touchpad with 13.04 and or 13.10 from willcast.

kernel patch for cgroups starting automatically is.. somewhere... soon I will post a rom and github source. I was too lazy with quantal.. glad I didn't... everything changed.

AppArmor notes

More notes...

ogra_	you need to put apparmor=0 on the kernel cmdline

try this later... to run suduko

[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Rotation is working correctly!

So I have working, sound (without pulse rebuild tomorrow) wifi, graphics, touch, and accelerometer\compass. I also can now run Suduko without apparmor (click apps) by changing .local/share/applications/*.desktop and remove aa-exec to remove the apparmor profile. This will one day change with upstart according to irc.. AND changing the cmdline to have apparmor=0

Try pulling the battery and letting it sit out a couple minutes then put it in to see if it will boot up.

first do what lumin said then if it doesn't work read on

Depends on the rom you're on just flash a kernel accordingly with heimdall

By this i mean if you're on stock flash a stock kernel if youre on mtd ICS or JB then flash one of those kernels then you'll boot back up

If u guys are going custom on a nexus device it means u dont respect android.

Custom roms are for non nexus users. What better a custom rom can provide than ur vanilla rom.

Flashing a custom on nexus gives an impression as if the user think he will be cool if he has a custom, with no user need.

Sorry just my opinion.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myvibe:
Actually its the other way around , I assure you for a mainstream user there is no point of buying nexus device because its stock.

oh what complete bull. and this on xda. :laugh: i would not flash anything on a legacy device, because these plattforms are not meant to receive roms. nexus roms are based on pure aosp. google supplies fresh sources and vendor blobs, everything is cared for. you build stock android with a single shell command.

its funny though you post that from a note. samsung at its best, creating fragmentation and confusion. : P
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hornedfiend:
I have been going through a lot of custom kernel after getting my nexus 4, since december, but now I'm back to non-rooted stock.

I kinda prefer stock vanilla because of stability, over nightlies, custom kernels, etc. These custom roms are always buggy in some way and stock seems a bit more polished for the moment.

I will try CM10.1 once it goes stable, because I really like the customization of switches on it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan stewart:
Bone stock. I used to root everything but that was to overcome a shortcoming or get a feature. There aren't any shortcomings on my phones worth rooting for yet or any features I need so I haven't bothered.

Also been very busy and relying on my phone for work so I can't mess with stability.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
People tend to forget that it's each to their own. After a few years using HTC's I decided to get a Nexus so I no longer had to flash roms after waiting for updates that never came and to improve battery etc. Then I would spend the following months struggling with bugs in Navigation and constant crashing until my next upgrade. I'm now more than happy with a stock device that gets timely updates and no bloatware. As much as I enjoy messing about with my phone I need it to work 100% of the time and that never happens with any of the roms I've ever used. I may consider rooting at some point when I can't resist the urge. Until then I'll keep using XDA for ideas and updates.

Don't agree with the comments about what to post in XDA when they don't mod their phones (again each to their own). If everyone agreed and all sung the same tune there would be no point in discussing anything:)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjc123:
Stock and rooted because I needed the capability of the rooted apps; now does everything that I need. I see that a lot of people spend time trying all these ROMS and just return to stock anyway, so I am in no rush to try them. But to be fair, I just bought the phone, so I haven't hit any annoyances yet that would push me towards a custom ROM.

And to the guy saying flashing a ROM on a nexus device is disrespectful to Android, you are full of it. Android is about freedom and customization. I love having the choice to flash a ROM/Kernel. If you like stock, good for you, but don't say those that ROM don't like android.
