Maybe we should mass fill it as a bug. Developer strike lol :p

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

I guess this is the part where all the developers come together under the common interests of cracking that thing down. :) I wish I could help but still learn The java way in the newbie academy :sly:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mehas:
Looks pretty good! I've downloaded both files.

Using the CWM I've wiped data, flashed the first file successfully but couldn't flash the second one (the phablet).

I've calculated the md5 of the second file using ES File Explorer and it's:

e929dcab37e39a7dda71c5cd01e0202f

How can I check the MD5 (.md5sum file) using Ubuntu Desktop? Or is it possible?

If this is only for Android, how can I check it then?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
I find it most easy just using the terminal.

Navigate to the files and type:

md5sum raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip && cat raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip.md5sum

It will print first the md5sum of the downloaded file and then the md5sum that their machine calculated.

Ubuntu has now moved to saucy (13.10), so the links in the description no longer works.

I will soon update these with a new build as well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mehas:
Thank you for the command.

I'm already using the Ubuntu Desktop 13 and it worked for me.

This is the md5 I've got for the original file:

d503244448fd33526d53c717dc709d0a raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip

It means that I have to redownload the zip file

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

The link was working till an hour ago.

Can you upload it to any mirror or we have to wait for the next release?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
There's still this one of raring:

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-to...thly-05/raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-to.../raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip.md5sum

saucy might work with the current build, but I have not tested this:

First of all, thank's to the developers who are supporting this great phone with ubuntu. I have a question. This phone with Android have one option to disable the lights of the key's near the home button. With the ubuntu touch thoose ligths are turned off? Or they light up if we touch the screen. Personally i have them turned off with Android. If in ubuntu they are turned on, there is way to make them off?

Thank's!

Ubuntu Touch Developers tells that they are happy to help community developers to support specs of devices , after request. After collecting debug info and sent it to ofono devs, they are happy to help. Have you tried something like that ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mehas:
Thank you for the links.

I've tried the saucy but I got stuck while bootloading.

And there wasn't a bootscreen.

I've waited some minutes, maybe I should wait longer.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
I'm currently uploading the new build to goo.im. With my connection it will probably take an hour or two.

It does however boot into saucy. Things are a bit buggy, I've noticed how the Wi-Fi occasionally comes and goes.

Video recording seems to be on the way to work, but for me, when I press the red circle, the app hangs.

I have not tried something like that. Perhaps someone more familiar with those parts could try?

I think that is some standard behaviour in the samsung drivers. There are currently no settings for such in Ubuntu Touch.

It's possible that some configuration files control this, but in that case I have no idea which files.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] darkkham:
[MENTION=5161277]MaxWallstedt[/MENTION]

Ok , i can. Plese send me debug about RIL, and i'll do the request to ofono devs.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
I can't access my device through adb, probably since I'm on a virtual ubuntu on a windows host.

I don't think that CM is necessary. At least maybe moving from any AOSP rom to Ubuntu Touch one will work.

I've tried moving from SlimBean and it worked for me.

Anyway, here's the list of latest nightly builds from the official page:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] beckzz:
mehas gave you the links, what you have to do:

- install cm10.1 through custom recovery, just to get an up to date version of cwm

- advanced -> reboot to recovery

- factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system

- then install the two zip's from OP, just like you install any other ROM

- reboot

- TADA! ;)

it's just that easy, did it myself yesterday. i came from cm10.1 too.

After playing arround i just restored a nandroid backup through cwm and was back on my daily driver.

I was not able to start the settings in ubuntu, simply nothing happened..is that normal? :)

thx, MaxWallstedt, for your great work! pls keep this project alive, i'm interested in a final version of Ubuntu touch for my s2!

im even more interested in Ubuntu Touch on my Transformer Prime...but atm there is no light at the end of the tunnel :(

It IS ported successfully damnit. Phone/SMS doesn't work on ANYONES phone, and building this from scratch is not easy so if the dev is having a hard day some tiny error sneaks through. If the packages aren't ALL synced to date it could blackscreen, if you install it on top of a non-CM based rom it will blackscreen, if Canonical changes something we need to figure out how to fix compatibility which will usually blackscreen. If the download goes bad it will blackscreen, if...

This is still a dev preview, this is not stable and bugs are EXPECTED.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Christaggis:
Yea I wiped all 3 still nothing. I have the latest nightly of CM 10.1
[Galaxy S II Android Development] theeedy:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] theeedy:
thanks. i should have used the search.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mendhak:
After taking the latest nightly from here, and the two .zip files in the original post, I'm getting the black screen.

I did an adb logcat and it seems like the device is 'on', just unable to draw anything. An extract of my logcat is here. One recurring error towards the end is

I've formatted /system, wiped the Dalvik cache, wiped the cache and wiped data/factory reset, but I'm also getting a black screen. It's as though the device is on; when I press any buttons more errors show up in the logcat.

Is there something else I should be trying? Another armel zip? Another nightly build?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
I'll look in to it a bit. I suppose you could try an older saucy armhf nightly build, but it seems like they don't keep very old ones.

I managed to find an older copy here. When I tried out this phablet zip, it worked. So something's changed recently! Thanks for the tip.

I wish that someday I'll have the knowledge to be a part of such endeavors (2nd semester CS student:D)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] wannabielf:
yes indeed you do in fact keep recovery
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mendhak:
Thanks for that, just tested and Ubuntu Touch launches fine.

Possible thing to add to the 'does not work list' (or maybe just me!)

If you attempt to enable developer mode in the QT Creator IDE, it will perform an update & upgrade on the phone and install openssh. I believe the upgrade might be causing the phone to go into a blackscreen mode again. However, it is 'detectable' and you can SSH into it, adb detects it and QT Creator detects it too.

Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/7duIglC.png

If someone else has the time or inclination it would be good to get confirmation that enabling developer mode blackscreens the phone. Until then we could probably stick to qmlscene to run apps when developing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] IconRunner:
I assume phone and sms are still non-operational?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DragondDev:
Why are people too stupid to read up, and instead just post the same question over and over?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MaxWallstedt:
I can't really test this, as I can't access my device when Ubuntu Touch is installed on it. Perhaps someone else could try?

Unfortunately, they are still non-operational.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mendhak:
I've managed to simplify the above process, if anyone could test this out and help confirm the problem it would be great.

On the phone, launch the terminal app.

In terminal, do this

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

(Default password is phablet)

Now reboot the phone. If it reboots into a blank screen, then it means that performing an upgrade doesn't work on the phone. (Reflash OP's two zips to get Ubuntu Touch back)

This changes how developers need to set up their environment as the regular instructions will not work. I have added a section to the wiki for other developers to get setup without this problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Blescik:
after installation, I got a black screen can someone help me?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mendhak:
You need to go back into recovery and

Wipe data

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache (advanced menu)

Format /system (mount menu)

Once you do that, then reflash CyanogenMod and the two .zip files in the original post.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sebbe312:
Hmm, trying to install Ubuntu on my phone, but seems like I've some wierd issue.

I've done everything that OP says, I've also read the thread, but I still haven't found any solution.

I've the latest nightly from CM, downloadeded the 2 files from OP.

Does everything that the instructions says, but I still have a black screen after rebooting. The phone's alive, ie capacity buttons lightens up if I touch the screen but the screen's still black.

Any ideas?

Good news everyone!​

The Ubuntu core apps are off to a flying start! Just a week or two in and here is what is available.

I couldn't get any to run at the moment, but I am unsure as to whether that is because they are being put out by a buildbot or because Touch just isn't complete yet. It seems like either their dependancies aren't implemented yet or it was a bad build. Either way, work is progressing quite well!

Apps in development:

(The ones in italics have not been released yet.)

Terminal

File Manager

Calculator

Calendar

Clock

Weather

Gwibber

Twitter

Sudoku

Akari

DocViewer

EmailClient

Youtube

Here's what I did to install:

1: Fire up adb shell on your machine (only seems to work on Linux right now) and enter these commands:

adb root
adb shell
ubuntu_chroot shell
apt-get install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/daily
apt-get update

2: Now to install any of these packages enter "sudo apt-get install " followed by the package name. For example, to install the Clock app you would enter:

apt-get install ubuntu-clock-app

3: To check for app updates enter the following command

apt-get upgrade

4: Removing apps is similar to installing them, just type "sudo apt-get remove" followed by the package name For example:

apt-get remove ubuntu-clock-app
# OR to purge all associated stuffs
apt-get purge ubuntu-clock-app

Ubuntu doens't boot from Android anymore

Hi,

I've just read a article that Ubuntu doesn't boot from Android anymore but directly to itself. So no use of the Android kernel or libs. Before Ubuntu touch started from "chroot" command.

So maybe that is the issue for most people that also flash CyanogenMOD now..

I guess we will have to wait, or does anyone else have an idea?
