Ubuntu touch port started for Nexus 5 finally

Thank you Ricardo Salveti !

Quoted from https lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg06116 html

Flashing 4.4.2 based Ubuntu touch images:

1) Flash the original 4.4.2 based Android image from

https developers.google.com/android/nexus/images ($ sudo

./flash-all.sh) - needed to make sure you're using the right

bootloader and radio fw

2) Unlock your bootloader: $ fastboot oem unlock

3) Boot the device with the original 4.4.2 image and reboot to bootloader

4) At the bootloader, flash boot, recovery and system for your device

- fastboot flash boot boot.img

- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

- fastboot flash system system.img

5) Boot into recovery and flash Ubuntu using

http cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/pending/trusty-preinstalled-touch-armhf. zip

(adb push <zip> /sdcard, then flash via menu, or use sideload).

6) Reboot, and use phablet-network (from your host) to setup the network

7) Enable my personal PPA (latest MIR): sudo apt-add-repository ppa:rsalveti/ppa

8) Install latest MIR packages: apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade

9) Enable MIR: $ touch /home/phablet/.display-mir

11) Reboot and profit!
[Nexus 5 General] DubelBoom:
What are those boot, recovery and system images?

I'm pretty sure recovery is not needed, boot is and system I don't know...

EDIT:

Only the zip was aborted by MultiROM on boot, after flashing the hammerhead boot.img (through the recovery to the Ubuntu Touch partition) it didn't pass the Google splash screen :(

Testing on Nexus 5

Can download from here:

http people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/hammerhead/boot .img

http people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/hammerhead/recovery .img

http people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/hammerhead/system .img

Not able to follow the step 6: which repo contain phablet-network?
[Nexus 5 General] DubelBoom:
I know from where to download, my question is why?

Why do I need another recovery? I want to keep mine - TWRP with MultiROM.

Why do I need to flash system? Isn't it included in the zip?

Boot I understand why :D
[Nexus 5 General] Shiggity:
There is no repository that has phablet-network. You need make the file yourself, filling in SSID and password if encryption is enabled. Phablet-network does that, but for some reason rsalveti and I couldn't get it to generate what we needed.

Create this file: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/active_ws_connection.conf with the following in it:

root@ubuntu-phablet:~# cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/active_ws_connection.conf
[connection]
id=connection
uuid=4cdf56db-d44b-42d4-976b-287139a9c291
type=802-11-wireless

[802-11-wireless]
ssid=<YOUR SSID>
mode=infrastructure
security=802-11-wireless-security

[802-11-wireless-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-psk
auth-alg=open
psk=<YOUR PASSWD>

[ipv4]
method=auto

[ipv6]
method=auto

All you should need to have to change there is <YOUR SSID> and <YOUR PASSWD>.

I advise that you create the file on your host and not try and do it via adb shell because for some reason it won't let you append the file (i.e. it won't let you write and save it, and it's not a permissions issue since you're in as root). Once the file is created locally on your PC or Mac be sure to have the Android SDK installed because without it adb push active_ws_connection.conf won't work.

Let me or Ricardo (rsalveri) know if you have any further problems.

To those asking about why we need another recovery image, I guess it's because the ClockworkMod they're using is more optimized and stable? I don't know, but it's easier to follow the tutorial and use their recovery method. I'm sure you could substitute it with TWRP if you wanted to. By the way, I'm not a developer nor am I associated with Canonical. I'm just a community member that's willing to help test this awesome project and to track its progress.

How to

install with multirom ?
[Nexus 5 General] rapastor:
Check the multirom thread. It's already explained.

[Nexus 5 General] jabza:
For whatever reason, I can't get my network to connect. I made the file, copy and pasted all of it (after "root@ubuntu-phablet:~# cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/active_ws_connection.conf"), put in my SSID and password, then ADB push'd it to my phone, and it didn't connect. My network is WPA2 so I tried again and changed "wpa-psk" to "wpa2-psk" and tried again, and still nothing. I rebooted after each time. Thus, I can't add any repositories or get anything to show up on the screen besides the Google bootloader. I can, however, connect via adb and enter into a shell. Is there something I'm missing?

Edit: Got it working by flashing this zip.
[Nexus 5 General] FuLgOrE2:
To get the changed network configuration working, you need to chmod it to 600.

Otherwise the networkmanager don't accept that.

[Nexus 5 General] defrt:

[Nexus 5 General] roman2861:
Bit laggy, no audio, microphone doesn't work, phablet-screenshots doesn't work.
[Nexus 5 General] abtekk:
It will come. The build was only put out yesterday.
[Nexus 5 General] logikism:
Everything works for me but audio, Bluetooth. Also each bout I find I different bug. 1 the keyboard goes away after one letter press. 2 line gown the screen as if messaging screen was up but both sides of line are the same app
[Nexus 5 General] tehsu:
Did you add the ppa and install mir?
[Nexus 5 General] logikism:
I don't know what that means. Could you explain?

Also my file browser doesn't work
[Nexus 5 General] tehsu:
Step 7 and step 8 in the instructions. Once you get WiFi connected you can get into terminal using adb shell.
[Nexus 5 General] defrt:
How exactly? What's mean abd shell? I don't know anything about Ubuntu
[Nexus 5 General] tehsu:
You run these commands inside the shell, so you know how you have adb for flashing and running commands to android phones? If not, you need to go download adb. So you connect your phone to the computer while its booted into Ubuntu and then run adb.exe shell. Then run the 3 commands below and reboot. It will fix the UI having issues. Won't fix the audio or bluetooth or any of that.

7) Enable my personal PPA (latest MIR): sudo apt-add-repository ppa:rsalveti/ppa

8) Install latest MIR packages: apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade

9) Enable MIR: $ touch /home/phablet/.display-mir
[Nexus 5 General] abtekk:
You need to have a little read up on the Android SDK and ADB before you attempt this. This is not a quick "run this and it works" kinda deal.
[Nexus 5 General] defrt:
Where can i download abd? Or Some toolkit? Or video explanation?

Thanks for answer, by the way :)
[Nexus 5 General] weihan1102:
Just a stupid question. how can i take screenshot?
[Nexus 5 General] abtekk:
I repeat, read up on the Android SDK and ADB before attempting this or you will break something.

You can't as of yet, normally it would be the command phablet-screenshot, but it's broken.

I have installed Ubuntu Touch too. Took some figuring out, because the keykoard was working like sh*t. Found the instructions for the PPA, but couldn't connect to my wifi because the keyboard kept acting up. I didnt feel like opening my wifi, so looked around. It turn out the network manager also has a commandline-interface: nmcli. Using nmcli I connected to my network no problem and used the PPA from instructrions to update to proper Mir version.

i tried the 30-Jan-2014 ubuntu touch , seems like the sound still not working. I am not sure what has fixed in this version. :D
[Nexus 5 General] qrazi:
I installed Ubuntu Touch in Multirom, did the PPA-thing to make it work better, and decided yesterday to do an apt-get update, apt-get upgrade through adb. That screwed up my boot image somehow, because I couldnt boot to Ubuntu, Firefox or Android anymore. Ended up flashing stock Android back....

Another question, the new build: http://people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/hammerhead/, is it possible to install that in Multirom?
[Nexus 5 General] weihan1102:
There is the zip file in the multirom thread.

---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

You can't do apt-get upgrade when using Multirom, of course you can't. Multirom requires patched kernels, if the upgrade updates the kernel, you break Multirom. Geddit?

yes, it is yesterdays build.

[Nexus 5 General] qrazi:
That makes sense.... I have to be honest that I don't really know what I'm doing with the phone.... I'm glad I could go back to stock.... Ubuntu still has sound issues in the zip build from the multi rom thread so I don't want to make Ubuntu my only is. But with multi rom I can't update.... So I have to choose between two imperfect options or is there a dual boot option which let's me update Ubuntu as well?

This might be stupid but since we got that update problem, isnt there a way to pack everything u get with apt-get and build a flashable zip to use in recovery????
[Nexus 5 General] abtekk:
Possibly if someone were to do some wget magic. There would be no point once it becomes stable enough for a daily driver though as you wouldn't need to test it with Multiboot.
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
I understand, i know this is a little offtopic but isn't there a sort off addon with core apps and stuff?
[Nexus 5 General] FuLgOrE2:
If you follow rsalveti's way to flash (one guy from #ubuntu-touch), you can temporally fix the wifi bug and the long loading time with the attached instruction (from Tassadar from #ubuntu-touch):

This is the flash instruction from rsalveti:

1) Flash the original 4.4.2 based Android image from

https : // developers.google.com/android/nexus/images ($ sudo

./flash-all.sh) - needed to make sure you're using the right

(http : // people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/<device>)

- fastboot flash boot boot.img

- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

- fastboot flash system system.img

5) Boot into recovery and flash Ubuntu using

http : // cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/pending/trusty-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

(adb push <zip> /sdcard, then flash via menu, or use sideload).

8) Install latest MIR packages: apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade

9) Enable MIR: $ touch /home/phablet/.display-mir

11) Reboot and profit!

Just exchange the link in step 5 and you don't have to perform step 7 and 8 (this is made by ogra_ from #ubuntu-touch)

http : // people.canonical.com/~ogra/ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-touch-4.4.2-mir.rootfs-armhf.zip

Then follow the instruction in the attachement.

Todays build is out by Ricardo. Get flashing peoples.

In this update Mir is preinstalled and the System is a lot smoother. Wi-Fi works out of the box for unprotected networks (can't test on normal protected networks at work) but still no sound. It's a lot more usable as a daily driver now.

I'm going to have a go at fixing sound. If I can I doubt I'll go back to Android again.

Probably kernel problem, alsa is not starting mixer. But at least sound card is recognised after modifying /usr/share/alsa/ucm (adding folder named "msm8974-taiko-mtp-snd-card" and modify HiFi, VoiceCall, msm8974-taiko-mtp-snd-card.conf). Hope this clears some things.:silly:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pin0cci0:
Hi all,

i've tried to upgrade my Defy (MB525) to CM11 from Slimrom. First I updated the CWM recovery, then I tried flashing CM11 but the installation aborted. After restarting the Defy I wasn't able to reach the Custom Recovery again. So I tried flashing an original sbf (Retail German 2.2.2. and Retail US 2.2.2.) from this site: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=27.

Everytime RSD asks me to restart the Phone manually and displays "PASS" after the manual reboot. But then it is stuck in bootloop. When I try to perform a Factory reset over "power button and vol -" there is only a little triangle on the display but no Motorola stock recovery.

So could anybody tell me what to do next? I assume that I could only reach the bootloader mode now.. :(

Thanks for your help!
