Hey guys, im just about to install ubuntu on my android phone, think im running froyo atm.
My questions is it requires what i remember hearing as loopback compiled in the kernel, which stock android has. Im wondering if samsungs kernel build has this also?
If so its just a case of installing it from shell and im away

I know that it was only launched yesterday but I am really excited about the launch of Ubuntu for phones, it looks like a really slick experience. My question is to the devs out there working on the defy(+), is there any chance that we will see this on the defy(+) as we already have a custom kernel which means the UI is the only thing that needs porting?
Thanks
Hello there. I was thinking about putting ubuntu on my nexus 7. however I was reading that i needed a special kernel. So I wasent sure if I wanted to only run one kernel. Can someone tell me what I would be looking into if I decided to use multiboot?
n00b here to XDA and Android, 1st post, here we go..
Currently running international GN3, ROOTED omegadroid ROM with a stock kernel and trying to run linux on android(complete linux installer).
failing miserably and researched my list of probable faults back to no loop device support for my kernel.
My question(s) as the title so simply puts it is does the GN3 stock kernel have loop device support, if not is this something i could change myself? For my information how could i check?
Does anyone know of a kernel (for SM-N9005) that has this support? (I looked to no success[maybe im retarded])
If no then are there any ways in which i could help in the development of this feature for the kernel.
Also post if you have had any success with running linux ontop of android.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers guys!
I've spent hours trying to find a solution to this and as far as I know the stock kernel does not. And I have yet to find a custom kernel that does either. I would graciously donate some money to a dev that could build one
SM-N9005 stock rooted 4.4.2
Leankernel on jb worked fine for chrooted linux for me.

Ok I have never compiled any android os, with that said ive compiled all kinds of linux stuff including installed Gentoo. Is there any decent guides on compiling miui, any advice on what build would likely be the best to compile? Im assuming miui would be basically the same as compiling cm10 right?
It's month now when SGS6E+ is out in the wild and we don't have many devs in the comunity so far... I greately appreciate the only custom kernel we have, but what about just rooting, and keeping stock at the same time? Pure stock and root.
I still can't find any solution for such a basic need: a stock rooted kernel. You can say: hey there is one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-edge-plus/development/auto-rooting-stock-kernels-s6-edge-plus-t3194607/
..but when I went thru the comments... so many issues... Why?
Truely speaking, i tried to compile my own kernel, but... I'm a noob and only achieved to set up the environment: ubuntu... all the needed packages... but then I noticed there were no newest sources for G928F on samsung site....G928FXXU1AOH4. Even if they were available, I would rather fail building it
Any ideas?
