Thanks!
No, But it is being worked on! So sorry no link!

CANNOT OPEN SCRIPT FILE

You don't put the files on the storage card. You create a new directory in the root of file system called "Storage". This is confusing I know. You want a new folder called "Storage" on the *same level* as your "Windows" and "Storage Card". Then you put the files in Storage/Program Files/Haret.
Also if you are using the kernal from that site (i.e. pre built) you wont be able to do anything. On boot it will crash with a kernal panic. If you want a working version you have to compile your own kernal from the source in their repositry...and I ain't talking you through that! Even then you only get a command prompt
Lewis
WOW THX!!!
but now i have a kernel panic^^
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0)
after that the device is freezed
only what i can do is a soft reset!

Yes! I told you that would happen! See my above post. Have compile the newest kernal to get anywhere - and even then you only get a command prompt.

Next Problem, did i understood that right, that i need linux on my pc? because that looks like in ubuntu in the shell or a other linux.
cd /usr/local
tar xvfj /path to/arm-linux-gcc-3.4.1.tar.bz2
vi ~/.bash_profile
add in the line: PATH= ":/usr/local/arm/3.3.2/bin"
make su - <username>

i havent linux on my computer. so what could i do? can somebody send me the kernel, or his complete folder with linwizard?
mail: [email protected]
Thanks!
Grab a Linux liveCD like Knoppix www.knoppix.org or DSL - Damn Small Linux which is only about 60mb so will be a quick download, if you install it to a USB stick too then you can write files to it as well.
EDIT: Just realised that if all you want to do is to extract files then grab WinRAR it does most things like tarballs and the likes.
Yes you need Linux to compile a kernel - and a fair few dependencies.
I have attached a kernel i compiled (I *think* it's the latest). I can't see why this would be a problem as the source is open to anyone, but if it is let me know so I can remove it.
Lewis
interesting, can anyone post some screen shots of Linux on the wizard?
This one seems a bit more recent, and will get you a command line without a lot of hassle:
http://webtomware.rhoen.de/linwizard/
Hmm.. but the linux seems to be bit far fetch from being usable, huh? Usually, I'm good in getting stuff from the web, but it seems that this linwiz information is a bit hard to dig. I was just wondering, how functional is it currently? I know that there are a few linux for others Windows based phone and they have quite a history to them, so I presume there are some working linux that can be transfer to the Wizard?

Yeh it is. It's all on that webpage I linked a while back. The wiki is where you'll find instructions. If you find the readme file it talks you though it., but the compiled kernel I posted above is the latest anyway. It is only a command line and people are still working on it. Long way from being at the standard of other devices (Blue Angel, Universal etc.). But still, its hope! I for one can't wait.

Thats the same thing. Experimental way of getting an x-server running. If i read the forums right they've since found a better way using the more compatible linux frame buffer standard instead.

if anyone could install it, can the person send the files? or the folder?
or how can i install it on windows?
thank you!
any one try to install it in QTEK S200
Hello,
I need beta testers running Mac OS X to test a new application.
This application is for people who are either uncomfortable or unwilling to use Terminal and ./adb for pushing files to their device.
This first beta version is just to test how it works on different computers. It pushes the file to the sdcard of the phone using ./adb. The only input needed from the user is to select the file.
Later releases will let the user choose which folder on the device to copy to, but the next release will probably just involve pushing .apk to the /system/app folder.
Please let me know the results.
http://derekcwilkinson.com/PushFile.zip
Beta 2:
http://derekcwilkinson.com/Push_File_Beta_2.zip
Change Log:
Added option to choose the location that the file is to be pushed to.
Added Recovery application
Added Reboot application.
Planned Updates:
Pull File - Ready
Device Backup - PM me if you know a good way to backup with ./adb (mine is taking too long)
Device Backup w/SD - PM me if you know a good way to backup with ./adb (mine is taking too long)
Install .apk - testing
Uninstall .apk - testing
Restore Backup - going to take awhile (need to get device backup working first)
Restore Backup w/SD - going to take awhile (need to get device backup working first)
Flash ROM - testing
is this an actual program or a script?
Works fine for me

It's a program that runs a script
It's just a test to see how it works, I will turn it into a more "real" application later.

Ah, you're using a different language. That could be the problem. Is the folder path still /Documents/Android/SDK/tools on your computer?
Also, when you run it in Automator, where does the error occur?

The folder path in my iMac is /Users/Rainbow/Documents/Android/SDK/tools
the error occur after a few seconds after click OK after choosing the file to be sent to MemoryCard
Okay, if it doesn't occur until then, that means it sees the device and android SDK. Is the SD card mounted on the computer? are you copying to /sdcard/ as the file path?

i don't understand this_ " are you copying to /sdcard/ as the file path?" sorry
When that window pops up (the one in your screenshot) are you putting /sdcard/ in the text box?
im going to try your app out =]

Sick of windows..
I am so sick of using a windows computer to do anything on my Hero so as soon as I get home tomorrow I will be trying this out on my system. SL 10.6.4 and I will be so happy to do it..

I'm a bit confused--PushFile is for pushing files from your Mac to phone (in other words, a computer-side application), while Root Explorer is a file manager for the phone (a phone side app), that, unless I've missed something, does not replicate the functionality that PushFile attempted to provide. Am I missing some cool new feature of Root Explorer that lets you easily transfer files from your Mac to your phone?
Ok thought might as well start this off myself seen as people keep talking about it, lets have a Q&A thread instead of bashing up the original thread so it can be used just for news and updates.
Does Android work on my HD2?
yes and no, at the moment it boots, no touch-screen driver so that's it so if you try this is what you get
microang has made up some pretty nice versions that dont blue screen check them out here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7032400#post7032400
Can I flash Android?
NO NO NO, it will run from Haret, it will not be a ROM, (yet maybe one day)
Can I boot Ubuntu?
yes you can, but touch-screen issues again,
UPDATE there now is a TS image to use
you would be better off using a mouse and keyboard via a powered usb hub.

What I found was that the ubuntu folder must be inside another folder which is on sd root. So tree wise its setup as...
1) SD root
2) Folder (containing the ext2 and the ubuntu folder which contains the haret files)
If you do it like you did, it hangs, I had the same problem. If you do it the way I explained, it gets to the actual linux kernel (tux) but kp's when the modules are to be loaded.

Yes, but i downloaded it over the rapidshare mirror.
what i did:
-copied everything to the sd root
-replaced zimage with the kernel that boots on hd2 (from irc log)
-merged the default.txt and startup.txt of the ubuntu build with the irc-log-build
start haret.exe

hi guys,
i currently don`t understand what exactly i have to do to run the HaRET. i`ve downloaded the "fatsal-ubuntuX1-20100225". there are haret and so on and a folder named ubuntu. when i extract it to my sdcard an boot haret i got a stop error "can not access SDroot".
what is wrong? maybe i am stupid?

That's the first of it, but go grab artn3r's pre packed ubuntu from the official Android/Linux thread a few posts after the one you quoted I think, and set it up folder wise as...
1) SD root
2) "fatsal-ubuntuX1-20100225" (containing the ext2 and THEN the ubuntu folder which contains the haret files)
That's what I did to make it work but as stated in the official thread, it hangs at the module loader
the name doesn`t matter?
well I'm downloading now, i have to pop out but i will be be back in 45 mins, and ill play try n get it running, if you get it going in the meantime let us no

Not sure TBH. Something interesting happens if renamed to something other than the original name though. The coherency test hangs but if reverted, it runs up to the tux.

Ok, SOME progress. Mine HALF succeeded in rebooting after deleting then recopying the files over (making changes of course). It got past the rebooting in 5 seconds hang and now has actually made an attempt to restart. (yay!) But all I got was it declaring it was about to reboot and the Kernel version number. i.e. 2.6.32.9

no it doesn`t matter where the files are or in which folder or how it is called.
tried this:
1) haret, ubuntu folder and co in the root of the sd card
2) new folder called "fatsal-ubuntuX1-20100225" with alle the files and ubuntu folder in there
3) renamed the folder "fatsal-ubuntuX1-20100225" to anything else
does not matter...the result is all the same.
haret booting, init the panel and stops after a line "welcome to kovsky aka xperia - ubuntu" with an error

Interesting, mine gets none of that. In fact, the loadmodule shell extension is the only think stopping mine from progressing. Oh and umm. It also attempts to switch to rootfs.

No other partitions, hmmm. But in case this helps, its still got winmo stuff on it, so not formatted to ext2. Doubt that'd make a difference though as the SD's format shouldn't effect the format of the ubuntu image.

One of my favorite things about android is being able to duel-boot os's and playing around with Linux distros ,but ive seen a drop off of them being brought to Android sadly . so im starting this thread in order to get all the duel-boot,chroot boots and all other ones into one place if i forget one please let me now and ill do my best to add it
Note these are not all native boots and i take no responsibility for anything that happens to your device, these are not mine either and the owners should be thanked im just bringing them together :victory:
Native Boots
My favorite and best (in my opinion) are the native boots Starting off is Ubuntu as a native boot
UBUNTU
The original creators in bringing Ubuntu to the Acer a500 first are right here on XDA netham45 and sp3dev The original thread can be found here Here
To start off on booting Ubuntu Natively you're going to need Root obviously and acer recovery installer which can be downloaded from the Android market
for the sake of this tutorial ill go over booting it off the internal storage :laugh:
1.Start by making sure you have 8gigs free of internal storage as this is how big the .rar is unpacked
2. after you download acer recovery installer youll need to flash this recovery Here
3. After that download all 3 of these .rar's onto your pc put them in a folder of there own and extract the first one they should all merge giving you one rootfs File1 File2 File3
4.once you get the rootfs move it to the home directory of your internal storage
5. power off your tab and boot into your recovery using power and volume- and your good to go
6.some tweaks you could do would be
For sound
Code:
usermod -a -G audio <your username here>
For cpu frequency scale
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:artfwo/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indicator-cpufreq
it will appear in you task bar on reboot best set to performance
:laugh:
Backtrack
Ive been told it works the same way but replacing the ubuntu.img with the backtrack.img which you can download from
http://www.backtrack-linux.org/
Cannot confirm this if someone tests it please reply back
BODHI LINUX
Bodhi Linux is another Linux brought to android with the dev being here on XDA apapousek Make sure to look at the original thread and thank it Here
There are to differant builds Alpha1 and Alpha2 ill be going over Alpha2
1.Start off by using gparted or any partitioning tool should work, and partion your micro sdcard make the first one as ext4 and make it at least 1.5gb name it bodhi make your second partition 128mb at least of fat32 format
2.mount the partitions
3.download bodhi Linux from Here
4.Extract the bodhi tarball to the root of your micro sdcard by using the commands
Code:
sudo su
cd /media/bodhi/
tar -jxvf /home/name/bodhi_alpha2.tar.bz2
5.Copy recovery.img to the second partition and flash it using Acer recovery installer from Here
6.Boot into recovery and you should be good to go
7.once booted into bodhi open terminal and type in setupwifi
CHROOT
Not as good in my opinion alot less functionality but there still fun for testing out a Linux distro and require less space without having to sacrifice your recoveryThere basically running a virtual machine on top of android to run a Linux distro all the ones I've tried have been slower so i just tend to stay away from them but feel free too XD
First of all there's a couple of different apps that will help you get it installed hassle free (for the most part)
starting off there's Linux installer standard Here
There's also Complete Linux installer with two donate versions available Here
Manual Method
There's also a more manual way of setting up chroot.
1.Make sure you have a terminal emulator Here 7zip Here and a .img file for a linux distro ill put up backtrack since it seems to work well make sure you get the ARM version of Backtrack And finally Android VNC Here
2.Download the .Img file of your choice in this case Backtrack 5 and extract it once this is done you will get another folder with bt5.img.gz and a whole other bunch files right click on the bt5.img.gz and go to extract here now copy them all into a folder called BT5
3.copy the folder called BT5 to the internal storage of your device it will be around 5gigs
4.Make sure you have Root access and busybox installed
5.Now open up your terminal emulator app and type in
Code:
su
cd/sdcard/BT5
Then hit enter and type in
Code:
sh bootbt
You should see [email protected] if it worked if it did then you can go ahead and use BT5 commands or you can get a gui by typing in.
Code:
tightvncserver -geometry 1280x800
Hit enter then type in
export USER=root
hit enter then
vncpasswd
Now its going to ask you for a password just create any random one and then verify it . After that it will ask you if you want to create a view only password hit n
6.Finally open VNC android you'll have nickname which doesn't matter port which is usually 5901 if that doesn't work try 5902 or 5903 address leave bank and make sure your connected to [email protected] just hit connect and your done one final thing to remember though is when you want to exit you have to go back to terminal and type in exit to shutdown
WINDOWS
WINDOWS95
windows is actually run through an app which emulates it i believe it has little to none drivers instaled and you cant really do much that ive found but its fun to mess around with and show off :laugh: to get this up and running is pretty simple all you have to do is.
1.Download this .rar HERE
2.Extract the folder to get a sdl.apk and a folder called sdcard move both of them to the root of your sdcard
3install the .apk and open it when shutting down though you have shutdown the right way by hiiting shutdown if you dont on reboot youll get a scandisk error
WINDOWS XP
Windows xp is even slower more useless and way more complicated to run BUT its still kinda cool to have
1.First you'll want to download everything you'll need bochs for android from HERE Sdl.zip from HERE Bochs for pc from HERE and Qumu manager for pc HERE. Last thing you will need is a windows xp.iso file not .img but .iso (ide post one but i read somewhere its ilegal to post .iso for windows :/ )
2.Download and install boch's for android on your tablet then move the SDL.zip to the root of your SDcard
3.Install Boch's and Qemu manager onto your pc
4. what you going to need to do is run a virtual machine with the .iso you have so first thing you'll want to do is once you install Boch's for your pc hit the start button then go to all programs and find the Boch's folder inside of that folder there should be a program called Disk image creation tool.
5. Next type in hd then hit enter, after that type in flat then hit enter ten after that its telling you what size you want it to be usually windows xp doesnt need more than 1.5gb so type in 1500 and hit enter then finally type in c.img and hit enter.
6. Now you want to open Qemu, once inside Qemu you want to start a new virtual machine do this by going to the vm tab and click on new virtual machine.
7.you can give it any nickname it doesnt matter just give it one and hit next.
8.Now it wants to know how much ram you want to allocate to this virtual machine 512mb to 1gb is usually fine pick and hit next.
9. Then hit finish now what you want to do is install the .iso to the blank image file but you need to specify what it is so go to the drives tab, click on Harddisk zero.
10.now you have to find the file c.img its usually located in program files/bochs you might have to make sure all files is selected in your file type bar.
11.Select thec.img file and hit ok
12. Now you want to click on your cd-rom that is your windows xp.iso file so browse and find your windows xp.iso and click ok.
13.Now your ready to run your virtual machine just hit the run button (green one) and if everything went alright you should see it start to boot up.
14. Now you'll have some on screen prompts make sure you follow them and choose ntfs file system when it prompts you to. (process will take 30min+ depending on computer speed)
15. Once your installation has been completed and your at the desktop you want to stop virtual machine. click yes end session. (i know right all that time just to spend two seconds in it)
16.Now you want to find the c.img file which is no longer blank and has windows xp installed to it. Usually in program files/bochs copy it then paste it inside the folder called sdl on your sdcard. If there is already a c.img inside of it just overwrite it.
17.okay almost done (i promise ) your going to want to copy all this code
Code:

MAC OS
Im trying to figure out old mac os and newer ones right now ill be righting a tut once i get it figured out
Just adding another distro. I'm running ARMEDslack. You can use BODHI LINUX approach for installation, but use armedslack's Mini root filesystems instead. For me, there's so many stuff i have to do after installation (mainly recompiling apps & libs) and i'm not sure if anyone interesting in Slackware distro this day. So i'm not recommend this distro unless you have too much free time and know how Slackware work
Another thing, is there anyone get nvidia display driver works? i can't see any practical step to get it working, just ac100 display driver unbuntu package. If anyone get it working, pls share xorg.conf to me
Does ext4 partition has to be the first partition or second to boot bodhi because vfat as second partition cannot be recognized by cwm recovery and I cannot copy any files from internal to external sdcard

I have a couple questions...
How well does Linux(mainly Ubuntu) run on the A500? Like is it smooth and all the various controls work well.
Does the HDMI out work? If so can you extend the desktop through the HDMI out to another screen. Like have two different windows on each screen.

I'm not sure bout hdmi if you do all the tweaks it runs reasonably well but won't run games and still lags when opening huge programs i had it for a couple of months for the most part you can install whatever you want some programs have missing repositories and you would need to create you own but there not that common i used it for compiling c+ as i need the multiwindow to do it but it will most likely crash if you try to update it i updated it to 12.04 successfully but was then having wifi problems you wil need an external usb keynoard to set it up at first when you boot up click on the top right corner and connect to wifi before doing the setup saves you a couple of steps

Backtrack works natively.
If you go on kernel-xp website there is a RTL8187 kernel for chroot which works well. Its based on acer ICS source code

Hello!
Which is the best, easiest and fastest file transfer method for Ubuntu 12.04? MTP, PTP or adb? How to set it up?
I search a lot, but now I am a littel bit confused about the three methods?
Kind regards,
Folio4me
I just use the file manager. Works just like windoze; drop and drag, cut and paste, whatever...

I managed to got MTP working with Ubuntu 12.04 (can't remember what tutorial I used though) but I found the easiest and fastest way to transfer files between the Nex 7 and Ubuntu is by setting up Filezilla in your Ubuntu box and then using a ftp app on your Nexus. I don't have my Nexus 7 with me right now so can't see exactly which one I'm using. I'll post later when I get home.
PTP I could be wrong but is mainly for pictures and adb there's just too much typing. Plus with using Filezilla and an FTP app you don't have to mess with wires and set up is really easy.
I did this:
sudo apt-get install libmtp-common libmtp-runtime libmtp9 mtpfs mtp-tools
sudo mkdir /media/nexus7
sudo chmod 755 /media/nexus7
under ~/.bashrc i added
alias mnex='sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/nexus7'
alias unex='sudo umount /media/nexus7'
When you plug in the nexus in the terminal type mnex to mount and unex to unmount. I know there are other ways to make it point and click but i almost always have a terminal window open so hitting 5 keys doesn't bother me. This will work quick and simple until you can find a "prettier" way of doing things.
basically followed this:
http://stevepdp.org/2012/07/18/how-to-transfer-nexus-7-data-using-ubuntu-12-04/
Then decided to add the alias

I found this tool which uses adb in the background:

Works MTP stable for you? I read some postings which says it is slow and have some problems with large files and free disk space.
Thanks for your tips.

I think nautilus is the default, so yes, the default file manager. When i connect the n7, the file manager just opens and I see the folders/files on the tablet (just like in windows). What happens when you connect the tablet to the computer?

With MTP: Nothing.
With PTP: I have only access to DCIM and Pictures.
I will give jmtpfs a try:

mtp does not work for me with large files. I just use adb for that. adb push movie. avi /sdcard/movies is not much to type for me. and like I said I always have a terminal window open so it's not a hassle for me.

I use (run) file expert on android and access via FTP (filezilla) on linux (arch). Works very well.

Yes, 64bit. I don't know how technical you want to get, but with exfat enabled, you should be able to transfer any file size to/from the tablet, usb or a sdcard. Transfer rate to/from the tablet is about the same as usb, but faster than low class rating sdcard...
QtADB FTMFW. It is adb with a GUI.

airdroid is pretty easy (and largely independent of os). But I found it failed when mass downloading about 6 gigs, no idea why. Nowadays I commonly use adb.
But I think there is an actual mtp setup for 12.04, so that's probably easier in the long-run.
I run Kubuntu 12.04 with gMTP installed and it's s...l...o...w. Sharing directories with Samba on the PC and using ES File Explorer on the tablet to access them is much faster. Airdroid is faster still.

My apologies. I mixed up my devices, I was thinking of my gnex, not the n7. You're correct about the mtp or pictures when connecting the device. I had to transfer about a gig this morning and just installed gmtp temporarily because it was quick, in the store and I was short on time. It works, but it's so slooooow... definitely will have to find something else later when I have a moment. Some good ideas got tossed out so maybe I'll try one of those...
I tried jmtpfs today. It was fast but it alwas stop at 1,9GB. Is there a size limit on the Nexus7 ?
