04/02/09 - zimage from rogro (fixed power collapse from dzo)
01/02/09 - zimage from rogro (full audio support, in-call audio and mic are working)
30/01/09 - zimage from rogro (able to set the brightness from the settings in Android.)
28/01/09 - zimage from rogro (mtype set at 1723 in the default.txt, like "set MTYPE 1723")
25/01/09 - zimage from rogro (with working backlight and keypadlight.) great work rogro !!
22/01/09 - Rogro posted a new zimage - zimage
20/01/09 - Latest zimage from rogro82 zimage
19/01/09 - Android Vogue package android-19-01-09.zip Latest zimage from rogro82 zimage
Boot:
Copy all files to the root of your sd card, replace zimage (with the one from rogro82) and run haret (included).
What's working:
- Calander
- IM
- Market
- Google Mail
- Email
- SMS
- Audio
- Dialer
- Adding Contact
- Import Contact from Sim
- Calling the added Contact
- Internet
- Google Maps
- Phone calls (with full audio support)
- Turn screen on/off without problems
- Buttons are mapped right
Known issues:
- Telefone isn't disconnecting when pressing red button (you must press the on/off button)
Solution for screen flickering:
Use "board-htcvogue.panel_type=3" in default.txt
Internet isn't working:
Besure that you have a active data connection in Windows Mobile -> Boot Android -> lauch Togga and click on "Connect"
If you can't find "Togga":
You should just make a folder called "AndroidApps" in the root of the sd card and put this file in there:
http://retrobits.googlecode.com/files/Togga_103.apk
It installs when android starts. Now you should have "Togga" in your programs list.
Solution for "No Network" "Not Registered"
You must disable sim pin in winmo, than run haret.

Put your the right title
bug found when switch OFF and ON when the screen repears the top bar is split in two part.

thanks =) changed the title.

Good job! Finally a thread where everyone can put there issues with Android without spamming the development thread.
You could add some known issues and answers to the startpost if you want (see below).
Known issues:
- Audio isn't working
- Starting camera results in a crash
- Screen displacement while turning screen on (temporary solution: click power button until screen is aligned right)
- Mapping buttons not optimal
Solution for screen flickering: use "board-htcvogue.panel_type=3" in default.txt
Internet isn't working: Besure that you have a active data connection in Windows Mobile -> Boot Android -> lauch Togga and click on "Connect"
And maybe add what works and what doesn't work.

Android boot's fine, and calls seem to work as well. But that is Togga? I've searched the forum and looked around in the Android menues without getting any wiser.

You can find Togga at the bottom of the main menu (be sure that you have the latest files from dzo (16-01-2009 or 19-01-2009, see startpost).
When you launch Togga and click on "connect" then Togga setup a data connection.

I have a question more than a new bug; Is the android version in these downloads some kind of testing or special development version? Because i miss certain options that are available on the G1 (like Gmail for instance). I would like to check out how android integrates with my google apps account. Calendar, Contact and Gmail i mean. And, if so, is there a way to update to a full version of android without losing the kernel stuff?

If you can't find "Togga" in your programs list then you should just make a folder called "AndroidApps" in the root of the sd card and put this file in there:
http://retrobits.googlecode.com/files/Togga_103.apk

Maybe adding this into the startpost? And maybe it is clarifying to setup the different solutions as follows:
Internet isn't working
blablabla
I can't find Togga
Download Togga at http://....
Keep up the great work!

Android isn't a specific development or testing version (for as far as I know). I think when Android is fully working all these applications will be working too.

I'm getting a "Kernel Panic". It says that something is "not syncing".
I've got:
- Khax Touch Diamond V2.
- Radio 1.59.44.02
- Active internet connection (WiFi)
- The file I extracted to the root of my SD card is:

Two things:
your active internet connection needs to be via gprs rather than wifi - there are no wifi drivers available yet.
you need to replace the Zimage that you have now with the one listed from rogro at the top of this thread.
hope that helps

Doing this way it works perfectly! Thanks a lot
It has a very slow startup.
SIM contacts are not accesed.
- Phone OK
- Internet Browser OK (some problems pressing buttons)
- Google Maps OK
- The search with Google at the right side of the home screen is not working. I could not enter any text. The keyboard just didn't appear.
Quite good, indeed!!! It looks amazing. What a big difference in the interface design... compared to Windows Mobile

Only the first startup is slow, the second should be faster.

i use the last zimage from rogro. it works and boots without problems.
good work.
some more things wich don't really work:
- Calendar is not opening
- telefone is not disconnecting when i press the red button
- gallery is not working - because of camera problem ? but i can access my photos over OI File Manager and over the wallpaper-menu
- IM is not opening
sound is disabled because of my old radio (1.59.42.15)...
which is the last version i should flash on my device to get it work?
i can connect to internet with togga - it shows me ip and everything - but neither google maps nor email nor browser find this connection. (server not found) also a radio issue?

Cant boot with sim card inserted, wihout sim all works fine. Last radio.

Making good progress!
Hi Everyone,
First off, thank you again to marcelkordek for starting this thread, using the instructions at the beginning I was able to get a working setup that I look forward to testing up coming zimages with. This is the first time I have been able to connect to the web and make calls with Android on my phone!!!
I can pretty much confirm all the listed known bugs but can also add the following one.
*Cannot import contacts from SIM gives an error 'No contacts on your SIM card'.
Polaris - HTC Touch Curise.
M-Amime 2.0 WWE
1.59.44.02
Also is there a way to exit out of Android back to Windows Mobile instead of doing a reset?
Cheers
Ben

Congrats to the developers, and to marcelkordek for creating this thread.
Running fast and most importantly stable - can really see this being a viable alternative once the audio, contacts, calendar and sms/email bugs are sorted out.
Looking forward to the next update!
As there's nothing to 'install' (just copy stuff to the root of your memory card) I encourage everyone to take a look at this. Once you've finished playing, just soft reset and you're back to your Windows ROM.

Should we overwrite the zimage that comes with the 19-01-01 Android Package with the one from rogro82 ..?
I used the one from the extra archive.
Maybe also worth to include on the 1st post that after copying everything into the root directory you just start haret.exe

grab the edge of the windows and drag to the size you want, might need to disable the window being maximized (right click on the windows bar in the top bar, unmaximze)

I understand how to resize certain windows. What about resolution?

launcher: settings --> display
gnome menu (enable in the panel)

if both show no alternative's, edit /etx/xorg/xorg.conf.
no idea if there are any other working resolutions.
change fonts and other window features: appearence.
system --> preferences --> appearence (gnome menu).

I will try that out and let you know my findings, thank you!

Trying to run Ubuntu v0.3 gives me a problem.
I runt the haret file, the "shutting down hardware
Turning off MMU" etc text shows up, but at the point when the ubuntu should be booting, the text (shutting down hardware
Turning off MMU, jumping to kernel...) just fades out, screen goes blank and nothing happens.
I am currently using a 4gig SD card, could this be the problem, do i need more space?
I didnt find any other posts with this problem described so answers are greatly appreciated.
Im running a newly hard-reseted stock winmo 6.5.

You have to update the Radio ROM to a newer version. See in Android Section for detailed instruction.

[03 JAN]Rajko's CM 6.1[RMNET]

Almost stock CM6.1 with some usability apps
Kernel from latest git standard
Download: Link removed pending warez removal from ROM
This is the way to customize an official build to a hd2 nand build
No hackery, no tricks, the way its meant to be done
You can extract it alongside CM 6.1 for desire and do a folder diff to see how to adapt a desire ROM for the HD2
Basically what i used since 03. Oct for testing Magldr, continuously updated when a new CM release is out
Readme:
Code:
Rajko's CM 6.1 NAND ROM for HTC HD2
===========================
Based on CM 6.1 official stable for the HTC Desire.
This is a continuation of the NAND ROM i was making for earlier MAGLDR builds.
Very close to CM 6.1 stock, but added additional applications for convenience, these are:
- Wifi Manager
- Quadrant Benchmark Advanced
- TasKiller
- Network Speed
- Current Widget
- Market Enabler
All applications should be up to date as of 03.01.2010.
1. Installation
===============
MAGLDR 1.10 or newer is required on the device.
Before starting the installation process, enter "USB Flasher" mode on the device
by using the Volume rocker switch to select items and the green "Call" button as the Enter key.
2. Known issues
==============
Magnetometer left/right doesn't seem to be working. Don't know what broke this. Investigating.
Due to old QDSP, camera is still the stock 800x480 of HD2.
3. Post installation notes
==============
You can change the kernel to a newer/custom version by doing the following:
Connect via USB to your HD2 while Android is running.
Spawn an ADB shell
Do the following commands as superuser:
mkdir /tmp/boot
mount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /tmp/boot
After that, you can replace the zImage that's located in /tmp/boot
When you're done, you have to unmount the boot partition, like so:
umount /tmp/boot
Restart your device to use the new kernel.

well done Rajko, will try your build.
thanks!

please Screenshot Thanks

great! will try!

Oh, first one build for Jan 3
Downloading ....

I have try a bit.
Very fast build indeed
230 mb free storage
Mobile data ok
Wifi ok
Just see until now a issue, the phone dial, dont like i typing the numbers very fast, if i do that the dial freeze for a second and the call slow to start.
Aparte of that i like the build and Tomorrow will test more this baby.

awesome..will test it
but umm..hush..hush..you might wanna take out quadrant advance =P

the normal quadrant is useless because the cpu score varies so much, so the total score isnt really indicative of anything
with advanced people can compare the individual scores, the ones that matter like IO and 2D/3D

does this kernel include WiFi fix (dynamic mac address). what governer does it use?. What about after call 60mA issue?
just FYI, if you put quadrant advanced, the mods will remove links.

it's commit 4c31f2fb265ae68b82ed5e8ea4bec91208837011 so yes
60mA is because of too recent toolchain, that was never a problem with this as i used 2010q1 since forever
60mA may happen if GPS is on, turn it off using the power control widget when you don't need it

camcorder force close
anyone else having random force closes when running camcorder? camera itself runs ok when taking pictures though...
aside from above issue, the nand/build is running great
Also,
i seem to have forgotten how to enable volume control (when playing music) even when the screen is locked/turned off? I can't find it under cyanogenmod settings
thanks

Step 3 is for changing the kernel. This step is not required unless you are swapping kernels.

Upload is awfully slow compared to other nand build....I was getting avg of 1.5mbps.....with this build I get 400kbps...

What is this all about?/Why put this on my device?
This projects aim is to bring a range of linux distros to your android device through a method known as 'chroot', see it has running a linux distro within a virtual machine on your phone (Although its not! its using native ARM ports and the Android kernel) . You can access this virtual machine and run it on your phone without causing any damage to your device, or having to overwrite anything. Why might you want this? well my apps are designed to make the install and set up process as easy as possible while still giving you some flexibility. Once you have the distro up and running then you can pretty much run and install any linux software you like (so long as there is a arm port or it is not architecturally dependent).
Wait this uses VNC why shouldn't I just VNC to a computer?
VNC is used to access the GUI as at the moment I have not yet implemented a native way of viewing the GUI. But the Linux distro itself is running within the phone and can be controlled via the terminal app so if your a seasoned Linux user you may never even want to use the GUI
What is Chroot?/How does this work?
"A chroot on Unix operating systems is an operation that changes the apparent root directory for the current running process and its children" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot
This method of running linux distros with android has been around for some time. I have worked on my scripts to make the process more user friendly and give you far more options from the word go.
The scripts start by mounting the linux image file within the android file system and then mounts the sdcard and if you have it internal memory within the linux file system.
Chroot is then used to change the root directory to that of the mounted linux and a bash shell is then opened to allow you to control linux this is kind of like 'booting' the OS.
The likes of VNC and SSH are then set up when linux is 'booted' to allow you to connect to the GUI if you require it.
Interested?
Ok so you want to get one of the support linux distros on your device, great welcome to the team
But first you will need to find out if your device is compatible with the method before anything else, this method 'should' work with pretty much any device but some ROM's/kernels will not work as they do not have loop device support etc.
HERE is a list of working devices and ROM's/kernels but remember just because its not on the list simply means no one has told me its working, it could still work!
Free Apps/Files
App
The App can be download via google play or the open source version can be download via source forge.
Distro Images
Below are our currently supported distros, click the distro of choice to go to its image download page on our source forge site (including torrent downloads)
Kali Linux
Donation keys
The donation keys allow you to support the project and unlock the configure menu within the launcher, this allows you to set and edit your VNC/SSH settings from within the app instead of on the command line!
This are also*available*to buy on the playstore or via paypal
Or if you donate more than £1 via paypal I shall send you a custom Donate key to unlock the extra features (if you donate more than £5 you will be added to the contribution list here and on the blog)
You can donate via paypal HERE Or my bitcoin wallet is: 13XxX4R2UFSkyCRyPMDXV1fT6VqzFi9d9T
Something not working?
Please first read through the FAQ pages HERE
Then if you still have issues check out the Q&A thread HERE. If you sitll can not find your answer, post in the that thread or email us [email protected]

I have this feeling you are about to be in high demand if all the ISC Webtop 3.0 videos are accurate. It's looks like Moto killed Ubuntu and replaced it with tablet mirroring mode.
BTW- Played with this on an Epic 4G and really like it. Could have used this last year for the Evo Desktop PC.

really? well thats interesting, bring them on, everyones welcome here

Runnin slow linux on android ? -> lets do Ultralight
Howdy, pardners!
I suggest ARM porting Puppy linux or some other other really light distro to gain maximum performace out of mobile device.
Also there ultra-light desktops . It seems that the best would be Ratpoison or Awesome. These are easy to incorporate into now available port of Ubuntu for android.
These should together provide fast and small display suitable linux env. for your mobile device!
see ya round!

Yes I think your right, I will look at making my next support distro one of these amazingly light distros, get the most power we can our of our devices

In your opinion, which of these distros is the fastest? I have a single core device so need all the help I can get lol

I got Debian to work on a Huawei U8800 Ideos X5 with the Aurora 2.0.4 ROM.
Everything was running smooth and great, but then I logged out from the system to see if I could switch DEs.
From there, all I saw was the wallpaper of the desktop and nothing else.
I exited with the terminal and tried again. Now I get this message:
VNC connection failed!
failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1 (port 5900):
connect failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)

Is there any way I could reset the cache and try everything again?
ALSO, after the sh-ing debian.sh, this is what I get:
Loop device exists
mount: mounting /dev/block/loop255 on /data/local/mnt failed: Device or resource busy
mount: mounting /sdcard on /data/local/mnt/sdcard failed: No such file or directory

It was different than before, so I thought this would be useful information.

Hmmm looks like you broke vnc I would recommend reinstalling vnc do apt-get remove tightvncserver then apt-get install tightvncserver
then do a restart of your device and try again.
If you want to use a different desktop you need to configure it in in /root/.vnc/xstartup vnc dosnt run right if you log out of a session and thus is broke, didnt think vnc even let you log out but guess it will

Reinstalled vnc, rebooted phone, still not working.

the speed and responsiveness of debian on a nook tablet / cm7 is great!
however, is there any way to get flash installed/working on debian's iceweasel?

what i was wondering is only, hows the battery?
as far as my lofic go, ubuntu on laptop is a battery drain.. and how if its running on a phone that majority has lower capacity of battery

well it includes faster downloads of the files from a server not just source forge, you can boot by clicking a button in yhe app so no more typing commands, you will get all future distros and updates first and the best bit is you get this amazing feeling for helping a developer keep releasing amazing stuff (if i do say so myself )

Androidx86 & Forks for UEFI Windows based tablets (custom kernels)

Androidx86 & Forks using custom kernelsfor UEFI Windows tablets
Android 6.0 Marshmallow [Stock Download] [Source]
Android 4.4.4 KitKat [As above]
RemixOS 2.0 (Android 5.1.1) [Stock Download] [Source]
PheonixOS 1.0.3 (Android 5.1.1) [Stock Download]​
Custom Kernels Included
Cube i7_Stylus

Android 6.0 MM -- post @Wootever
Android 4.4.4 KK -- post [Additional Files] @Wootever
RemixOS 2.0 -- post @asplash
PhoenixOS 1.0.3 -- post
Kernels -- located here
Hacks-Scripts-Tools
Hacks and workarounds that can be used to overcome reported issues. These will be primarily bash scripts; hopefully these can be included in the source code in some way if useful/needed.
Scripts
General scripts - use an app to launch them at boot; or make use of /etc/init.shSleep mode [effectiveness will depend on what sleep modes your device/kernel has access to (`dmesg | grep ACPI`); and will need to be modified if your screen brightness is reported elsewhere]
Code:
watch -n 60 '[ "`cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/intel_backlight/actual_brightness`" = "0" ] && echo "mem" > /sys/power/state' &
Which watches the brightness level every minute and if it's zero then puts the device into S3 sleep.
This can be modified in cases where specific modules don't comeback after sleep like the following for a rotation sensor
Code:
watch -n 60 '[ "`cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/intel_backlight/actual_brightness`" = "0" ] && setprop ro.sleep 1 && echo "mem" > /sys/power/state' &
watch -n 60 '[ "`getprop ro.sleep`" = "1" ] && [ "`cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/intel_backlight/actual_brightness`" != "0" ] && setprop ro.sleep 0 && am force-stop com.android.launcher3 && rmmod kxcjk_1013 && modprobe kxcjk_1013' &
Which restarts the kxcjk_1013 module and restarts the launcher on wakeup​
Build.prop edits RemixOS
ro.remixos.box=true
changing this value to false opens up more options in settings/taskbar and is preferable on tablets
ro.remixos.no_wallpaper=true
changing this to false will let you have a wallpaper if you turn of the file based launcher in settings​RMXTool by @imadlatch is a great tool for resizing data/system.img and having a poke through the system.img while in Windows​Proposition
It should be trivial to modify the ramdisk of Androidx86 ROMS to bind mount an additional .img to host the device specific modules/firmware for trying out new generic ROM releases - obviously full ROM build are preferrably but not always available.
Will need to have a look into the module packing that the build does in order to pack correctly when just compiling a kernel & modules.​

FAQIf you have a question that hasn't been answered so far - have a look here first before posting​

Thanks @HypoTurtle for making a separate thread for Android releases on the Cube i7 Stylus device! The original thread became quite messy, and it is important to have a dedicated one for Android.
First of all, I think we should really thank the great developers in this forum, @Wootever @asplash @HypoTurtle and all other members and testers for their contribution in preparing a good android image for this tablet.
I've been testing all Android releases in the main thread, and the most stable and usable one was Wootever's 4.4 release.
All other Lollipop (RemixOS and Pheonix OS) and Marshmallow releases seem to suffer from a few major problems:
1) lack of efficient stand by / sleep mode
2) high battery drain
3) no video codecs supporting hardware acceleration
I wonder if this is the case with other x86 based laptops/tablets , and whether the x86-android team are working on fixing these essential features.
Keep up the great work everyone!

@HypoTurtle
Can you please post the script in the first entry for sleep mode in the lollipop releases?
also, any new updates or releases ?

A new beta release of RemixOS has been released.

Stock RemixOS Beta, runs with a reported 4.4.2 kernel with as expected wifi not working, switching to the 4.4.0 kernel/modules/firmware we are currently using will work, but I'd rather wait until when/if the kernel source is released.
EDIT. Cube i7 Stylus kernel + modules attached. These are taken from RemixOS Alpha - so it's the kernel @asplash compiled. You need a rooted system.img or unpack/repack system.img within Windows/Linux. Just copy files over / and run the sh while running to set permissions. Then switch the kernel.
Too big to attach so available here

Just a couple of screenshots, it's seems very few people have figured out how to get rotation to work, and I'm sure even fewer have found how to enable apps like Twilight, Lux or Tincore Keymapper...
I'll post procedure in a bit just making sure it doesn't irreversibly mess with anything.

Thanks.
Can you explain step by step how to do it?
Also, any improvements over the previous builds in terms of battery consumption and sleep mode?
Thanks

Download it and have a look it should be fairly clear simpilest way is to copy to somewhere you can mount in android (usb, sdcard etc.), then with root file browser copy over, then replace the kernel.
Alternatively use something like RMXTools to open the system.img, copy the files over then repack system, boot, fix module permissions, then switch kernel.
Jide have just released their 4.4.y sources, so going to compile (at least the wifi driver) asap unless @asplash is already setup for a compile. There is a benefit with it at least with exfat (my exfat partitioned sdcard auto mounts with 4.4.2 but not with 4.4.0).

I answer to myself for 3gb of ram, just realized that is x86 not x64

Thank you for your great work on Android for the Cube.
About your latest CM13 ROM:
-Deep sleep seems to work (at last). After coming back from sleep brightness goes up and the device remains unresponsive for a while but after pressing the Windows button everything comes back to normal.
-My 128 GB NTFS formatted MicroSD card can be read from settings and from a file explorer using /mnt/media_rw, but it isn't easily accessible from many apps.
-Battery level isn't read properly, it shows 100% all the time.
-Built-in root doesn't remember a previously granted access, installing SuperSU solves the problem.
-The app GMD Gesture Control (a must have for me) doesn't recognize the touchscreen device. It worked on your Lollipop ROM.
-Only 3 Gb of RAM seem to be accessible, your Lollipop ROM aparently could see the full 4 GB.
-The device doesn't boot with the 8 Gb data.img, it gets stuck on the boot animation.
Speaking about your Lollipop ROM, it's been my Android choice for more than a month. Since its only drawback was the inability to enter deep sleep it would be lovely if you could post a new Lollipop ROM with that issue solved.
