Can P3300 run Linux? I've just know the HTC universal can run the Linux system in stead of the windows mobile system. Does anybody know about this? I'm using the wm6, but the destop is not cool. I wanna have a change and try something new.
Well if you want to you can work on porting Android to our devices
Hi!
I don't see any news support of Artemis on the linux project page by xda-developers. Isn't there any work going on to port linux/android on Artemis?
Hi all,
Just read an artice on the hack of Google's impressive Android mobile OS. Hackers have used files from the emulator and installed the OS on some Linux phones. I was just thinking that there was a post on this forum saying that Linux could be Installed on Magician. Also Android uses Linux's kernal. So why not give Android a try. Would be great to use the new Android on Magician.
Any clues on how to proceed with the Installation ?
Is it really? I listen about porting on only Linux-PDA but Magican isn't Linux-PDA.
Of course, Android can run on the Magician, BUT never forget that you need drivers for the device - even for Linux!
And that's the problem: if you don't have any information about the chipset etc you will need month or even years to develop them.
If you want to run Linux on the Magician, there is already a project which try to develop drivers for Linux. Last time I read from their progress Linux runs on the Magician with the possibility to use the phone (but no GPRS)...
Use the search if you are interested;-)

It is http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Magician , isn't it?
So If Linux can be installed, then Android can also be installed. Because it supports all Linux compatible devices according to the hack.
For the DRIVER part, pls check the official Android website-
http://code.google.com/android/
and let us know. Waiting for your reply...
Thanks!
Peoples - a hve WORKING linux on my HTC magician.
name is Angstorm with GUi OpenMoko.
Work - tochscreen,Sound,GSM,blootuth.
thet meens - drivers are exist and work
Can anybody say, where i can download Google's Androuid for ANY platform ?
I'm Find =) Android For Zaurus
it seems to me, For using rootfs on magician we mast change drivers in it
http://www.omegamoon.com/blog/static.php?page=ZaurusAndroid
As me say one man, it takes compiling magican's drivers using Google android SDK.
Some useful links

Немного о портировании для OMAP -> http://elinux.org/Android_on_OMAP
Sory for my English =)
does anyone know how to actually download the Android platform? regardless of phone model or drivers? or is it just included in the SDK and you gotta compile it yourself? If I can somehow get my hands on a copy of the image I'll probably end up spending the next 3 weeks trying to flash it natively into the ROM
The Android sources can found on this page: http://code.google.com/p/android/downloads/list
It is only kernel. Without drivers.
Found a new article for search on "Android on HTC", got this:
Android Kernel Found, Android on HTC Kaiser imminent
It says, that the kernal works only on MSM7200A chipset for now.
Take a look, link: http://fandroid.net/content/android-kernel-found-android-htc-kaiser-imminent
what i cannot understand is:
if there is an working linux kernel (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianXanadux) than android should be executable also!?
All necessary driviers shold be available.
So why should it be impossible to have a running android on a Magician?
cheers
aitsch
p.s.: the Magician is a very fast device. maybe android is running well on it.
UPDATE: Google has released a new version of Android, v0.9
Any updates on running Andriod on Magician ?
I could run Linux (Openmoko) successfully.
yea! Android 1.0 it very good
we need this

Interesting, I'll take a look! What are the bugs you personally notice?
Good day,
I want to setup ubuntu or debian on my wildfire
please help me!
Thanks a lot.
(sorry for same topic!)
Uhhm Ubuntu is a OS for Desktop Computers..
I think its impossble to install it on a mobile device ..
everything is possible..
But it is probably not worth the work, it is really alot of work included to do anything like that.. and I dont think it would run smoothly either
Is it possible to port Embedded Debian http://www.emdebian.org/ on HD2?
I think it must run much better than ubuntu, because ubuntu uses the same base as debian, but too fat!..
Gonna explore about this.. Thanks!

The A501 does not run windows! The Windows Iconia is the W500.
The A500 doesn't have an Intel CPU, so there's almost zero chance of anyone getting any version of Windows to run on it in the foreseeable future. The W500 that runs Windows is a completely different piece of hardware from the A500.
Linux might be possible, as there are ARM versions of Ubuntu running on other tablets, but my understanding is it's a fair amount of work to get everything running (and straight Linux or Windows aren't really very good touch-screen operating systems, anyway).
As far as I am aware there is very little difference between the a500 and a501 save for some 3g and sim setups.
What you may want are some of the windows emulator (which are pretty much on the "poor" side of emulators and "windows") or use a remote setup to use your tablet to run the windows on your pc, just dont expect to be playing COD:MW3 with it.
i knew that. idk y i said a501, my bad. i have tryed linux installer from the market but it still wont boot. i must be missing directorys or sumthing. any ideas on an easyer way to install linux or maybe a tutorial one of u could help me with? iv cheked out the "how to install native linux" a few times but it doesnt make sense. any help would be awsome. thanx guys/girls
