1.Download android x86 iso from here
http://www.android-x86.org/
2.To install arm apps on android x86 use arm translator
for that you need to download 3 libraries from Buildroid and copy them into the system folder (so make sure you select to install the /system directory as read-write while installing Android-X86!):
Since the latest Android-X86 uses an ARM translator, not all ARM applications will work, for instance, Google Chrome won't work. Angry Birds (as well as Amazing Alex) on the other hand, worked in my test using a custom Android-X86 build in VirtualBox, though it was kind of slow (probably because of VirtualBox):
I'm sure there are readers who are wondering if Netflix works with this new Android-X86 release, but unfortunately I can't answer to this question because Netflix doesn't work in my country so if you try Netflix with Android-X86 4.0.4 RC2, let us know if it works in the comments!
you can download arm translater from here
http://www.webupd8.org/2012/07/android-x86-404-ics-rc2-released-with.html
3.To install the ISO either write it to a cd or burn it to a pendrive using unetbootin or usb installer.
Oh..sad..nobody want to try this..?nobody have a net book?

It was fun seeing it working but it's that practical as the whole user interface constantly needs "dragging" and a laptop trackpad is built for clicking
I'm giving it a go. I'm going to try running in in virtualbox and I'll check for netflix.

Okay .. wow.. there must be a back-door/virus in these builds!?!
How can such an UGLY website be the only place to get working 4.2 previews for x86?!
The AOSP 4.2.1 2013-01-24 was a bit portly (182mb) but it ran like a top on my virtual PC and I'm off to try it on the laptop/carpc.
Up until now I'd been running 2.3.7 as it's the only build that would work with everything, but it's getting old fast!

Lappy did NOT boot from it. Much sadness followed and I'm still on the hunt for any 4.x releases that will run on my older `Centrino` class laptop. I'm not expecting full support, I'd be fine with USB blue-tooth, even USB WiFi, all I want for it to do is boot with the CPU/audio/graphics chipset combo I have in the laptop.
It'd be so nice to have it booting droid native vs. only being able to run it in VirtalBox.

Hey bro
I don't think there is a Linux version for Odin unfortunately I have looked myself and haven't found one. I came across an article here (4 paragraphs down it mentions it aint compatible with Linux but not sure on the academic legitimacy of the article.) I guess not at this stage. You could always use it in a virtual environment like VirtualBox using Windows.
Heimdall. I don't know if works with Y

Geez, I thought Android is based on linux kernel? xD
Tried to emulate Odin via Wine?
ya i'm try with wine not working its not detect post ........ may be some driver issue
I found an interesting thread Here
So it looks like the answer is no, doesn't work on Linux
But it looks like it does work with VirtualBox
Maybe you don't understand me.. I flash my I9100 in linux with Heimdall, but I don't know if Heimdall works with Galaxy Y.

Hey friend
I did understand you but the OP was asking specifically about Odin. I have thought about Heimdall as well but it does not work as far as I know for Galaxy Y. Check this out.
Odin only works in VM i think.
I see, because i want to switch to Linux completely. Just adjusting, but it seems important apps like this one still don't have a linux version.
I've switched to linux recently. I'll see if I can run Odin on my end with Mint 12.

My first post here turn out to be an answer... LOL
Anyway, yes, you can use Odin in VirtualBox to flash (not the OSE version). One thing that you must do before it works is to uncheck UHCI USB controller in virtual box as shown in the attached picture (that is true for many other USB devices as well, it should have been turned of by default i VB i think).
Yesterday, I resurrected a bricked Galaxy S 4G on 12.04x64 -> VirtualBox -> Windows XP -> Odin3-v1.85.
Good luck!

I use Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64 (though I know it works on 32 bit as well)
As for VB, see attachment. Note that you must NOT use the OSE version, that will not work. Also, as per previous screenshot i posted, make sure that you add your phone in VB USB settings, and disable "USB 2.0 (EHCI) Controller".
Oh, and one more thing; you must add your user to the group "vboxusers", with
Code:
sudo usermod -aG vboxusers <your username>
after that, logout and login again
Hello Everybody,
I have a crucial question about installing Ubuntu in my TF101 B70KAS40: Could be possible to play in www doesnt matter co
This web uses Applets Java for running card games and other weak games, like chess. Currently, I can´t play using any browser under Android.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Thank you very much for the reponse, I'll try dual boot after holidays
I don't have the answer, but try it, you'll have a real os on board
I used to play with open office, better than all the writing apps on the market... (it was before i flash an EOS nightly rom...).
If your tablet is allready rooted, you should give it a try...
Install openJDK and the icetea browser plugin for java and it should run fine. I use my tablet to program my chatroom, which happens to be written in Java.
kenshin, do you mean that it is possible to install openJDK and icedtea ON android ?
or i missed something ?
Where can we find them ??
TY
Not on android, but if you dual boot Ubuntu and install them on Ubuntu they will run on Firefox that comes with Ubuntu.

Hi guys,
which alternative os could be installed on the Nexus 7 (2013)?
Actually i would be glad to install Ubuntu on my device, but thats not possible because of a different cpu architecture...
So i ask you for a list of possible operating systems which not based on android like cyanogon...
Why? Just want to free from google and test it...

Actually you can install lots of different versions of linux on your Nexus 7, including Ubuntu and Backtrack. Check this app. The Nexus 7 is on the supported list.

Actually cyanogenMod is just a customized version of Android, it's not a different OS. So i take that what you meant is installing a different ROM on your Nexus 7. Anyway you should start from here
This app seems to be an emulator for different linux distros, don't?

Hi, I recently installed Ubuntu desktop on my Nexus 7 using multirom.
It all went well and works well if you use a mouse with an OTG cable, I understand it was meant for developers but has anyone been able to install the tegra 3 drivers and keep unity/taskbar working?
When I install the drivers and reboot, it boots up and looks better but doesn't have unity or the taskbar. I can get into terminal with a keyboard and pretty much everything can open but its not exactly usable this way.
Thanks.

Which Tegra 3 drivers are you talking about? Ubuntu Desktop for Nexus 7 should already come with all the drivers it needs.
Its very slow and doesn't play videos, only sound. Also, in "about this computer" or something like that, none of the hardware or even the devices name is recognized. Here's a link to it https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/armhf/nvidia-tegra3/16.0-0ubuntu3

Yes, those drivers are already included in Ubuntu Desktop for Nexus 7. They do have issues though (lots of screen tearing). Playing video shouldn't be a problem though if you have the right codecs installed.

Yes that's normal. Canonical ported Ubuntu to the Nexus 7 solely to test it and optimize it for low-spec devices. They didn't do a whole lot to polish it up and make it presentable for end users because that wasn't really their goal

Yeah man. Multirom is an app made for nexus devices that let's you multiboot ROM and distros. I've got cm11, ubunut and active plasma installed right now. Just read the how to's on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011403 and download the Ubuntu 13.04 from that page. If you want a few other distros for multirom get them here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093797. It really is the easiest way to actually dual boot. And the dev is amazingly helpful. Don't hesitate to report a bug to him.

How does it works?
is it an operating system to install on PC ?
is it a windows application ?
is it a linux application ?
what are we supposed to do with the.7z file ?
This looks promising. Keep up your good work!

The 7z file needs to be extracted in 7zip file manager. There should then be a IMG file that you need to burn to a USB with Win32DiskImager and boot on a PC. Then install the the HDD in the installer. Be careful with the HDD formatting, its a confusing naming system. I have accidentally formated the wrong drive in the past. It is a full OS.
Is it only for x64-CPUs or also for x86-CPUs? If it is not for x86-CPUs, than i ask you to compile a x86-Build. Thank you! I want install it on an ASUS Netbook.

What about lineage-14.1?
it would be awesome if it's 14.1 since nougat support freeform
Lineage is the siccessor of the biggest alternative rom CyanogenMod. For me, there are many reasons to love cm: 1. I like to make all devices looking same, i hate sony-samsung-htc-huawei-moto...themes,bloatware and so on! (Only Sony cam is really nice)
Before a view years, cm was really good. When i buyed a new device (especially 4 months old), mostly there was a ready CyanogenMod out, sometime official, so i flashed and was happy. In the last 2 or three years, CyanogenMod was getting bad worse worst! Not much new devices, not much new updated, not actually Android versions, not much good mods, extras etc. included.
I hope, and it seem so, that it al will be getting better! But there is one big problem:
cm died becouse of getting commercial etc.
Developers must live ,so they need money.
Many developers proramm in their free time and have to work an their main job (waste of genious i say)
My suggestion is that lineage should get the best of both worlds, commercial and free/open source!
The main OS and all of his extras should be free to load, install and use!
Some not important services like OTA updates or user-support (not called customer-support) should cost money, but not much!
I think, a small price of 1€/Month could everyone pay who wants and was respect of this work..i would. When the account is empty, an support ab could be closed and no OTA's could be loaded...
Can you add multi tasking and external screen support to your x86 i mage.
Someone has already done the necessary code for it https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/rom-oxi-smartphone-computer-oneplus3-t3558293
Just needs to be included in the x86 image

It is fast and has a beautiful interface.
Some apps keep foreclosing though.
It can be installed on 32bit and 64bit laptops.
It would be great to hear other feedbacks!
