OLD THINGS THAT PROBABLY WON'T WORK ON THE NEWER BUILDS:
Auto-Debloater (Obsolete, do NOT use on newer builds)
Features
Remove mock contacts & avatars (you must follow up with a series of ADB commands to completely remove all contacts due to a python script that updates contacts that to my knowledge cannot be run via recovery).
Remove mock messages and call logs.
Remove mock media.
Remove most mock apps.
Little to no mock Unity lenses.
Part 1
Flash this via recovery.
Ubuntu Touch Debloater 1.0 | md5sum: 12c42d9e25838b4612276d5638f462d4
Part 2
Due to a python script in Ubuntu Touch that updates the contacts, you must run these commands in ADB in order to completely remove all mock contact data. If you are asked for a password, it is "phablet".
Code:
adb devices
adb root
adb shell
ubuntu_chroot shell
su - phablet
manage-address-books.py delete
Official Ubuntu Touch Status
13.04 "Raring Ringtail" & 13.10 "Saucy Salamander"
Preview and Beta
Mobile data works with some tweaks
Latest Preview Jenkins Changelog
On May 16th, alpha apps such as terminal and file manager will be released, so I'm not trying to remove any dependencies they may need.
How to Flash & Debloat
Reboot into recovery.
Make NANDROID backup.
Wipe System, Data, Cache, & Dalvik Cache.
Flash current for your device (whether it be official or not).
Flash latest Root FS (raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip).
Pull battery/turn off phone.
Boot into recovery.
Flash latest auto-debloat script.
Follow up in ADB as directed to finish removing all mock contact data.
Reboot system.
Enjoy.

Need someone to host debloated builds. Please see OP and contact me for details.

Debloated ZIPs have been started. First one is uploading right meow . Thank you Dev-Host for being so amazing!!

And the first debloated ZIP is up! Let me know how it works for you guys. Works great for me on Maguro!

People may be labeling it a "beta", but it's still a developer preview. Most improvements have been under the hood. Not much different than earlier Quantal builds, but much more responsive.

I just wanted to let you know that your work is very much appreciated. Your thread and the mailing list are what I follow now to get my Ubuntu Touch news. Thank you for the updates and thank you VERY much for the pre-debloated zips.

Hi there, i have a unlocked and rooted nexus 4 running AOKP JB Milestone 1, what do i need to flash to get the Ubuntu Preview on my phone is it raring-preinstalled-armel-mako.zip firstly and then the phablet-armhf.zip. Thanks

It looks like the debloated zip is the first link. You should make the link DATE - debloated just to be clear.
As for flashing:
1) Download armel+mako, and phablet preinstalled
2) Make nandroid backup in recovery
3) flash mako+armel THEN phablet preinstalled
4) boot to recovery and restore nandroid backup from earlier to restore android

Announcing Ubuntu and Android dual boot developer preview

Christmas has come early in Ubuntu this time around, with a finely wrapped present: dual-booting with Android.
We are thrilled to announce a preview of a new feature for developers: Ubuntu on mobile devices can now run alongside Android on a single handset.
For developers only
Dual boot is not a feature suitable for regular users. It is recommended to be installed only by developers who are comfortable with flashing devices and with their partition layout. Dual boot rewrites the Android recovery partition and those installing it should be intimately familiar with re-flashing it in case something goes wrong.
Multiple Android flavours are supported (AOSP or stock, CyanogenMod) and installation of Ubuntu can be done for all versions available in the phablet-flash channels.
Easy OS switch via apps
With dual boot, switching between OSs had never been easier. No more key combinations or command line interfaces to jump into the next OS: on each side, an app with a simple user interface will enable you to boot back and forth at the tap of a button.

}
The Android app manages the initial installation of Ubuntu, upgrades and rebooting into Ubuntu.
On Ubuntu, the dual boot app provides an easy way to reboot into Android.
Installing dual boot
Installing and running dual boot can be done in a few easy steps. In a nutshell, it requires performing a one-off installation of the dual boot app in Android, which will enable you to both install the version of Ubuntu of your choice, and to reboot into Ubuntu.
Install dual boot on your device >

dualboot.sh detects Nexus 5 and installs UbuntuInstaller.apk, but "http://system-image.ubuntu.com/channels.json" does not have an hammerhead entry.
To avoid confusion, i think the hammerhead entry should be removed from dualboot.sh if it is not supported.

I'm guessing this only works with supported devices?

Got Ubuntu & Android Dualboot on my Nexus 4
Concerning the phone call,sounds, and wifi, i downgrade from kitkat 4.4.2 to 4.3. Then following the official guidelines, i flashed ubuntu&android dualboot into my Nexus 4. The Android side runs smoothly as usual, while the Ubuntu side a bit laggy.

Already got them working on my nexus 4 with 4.3

My Nexus 4 ran 4.4.2 previously. Concerning the phone call,wifi and sound issues posted in ubuntu touch official blog,i downgraded my N4 to 4.3. So far, basic functionalities work well on ubuntu side. SMS, phone calls and camera work well. It makes a sound. Wifi and 3G(WCDMA) internet connections are steady, though the network speed sucks here in China.
there's one bug that Bluetooth can be switched on and off, but it never detects a single device, nor can it be detected.
Btw，switching in between ubuntu touch(14.04 r79) and Android (4.3) takes 30 seconds or more.
Good luck.

Every time I update to a newer Ubuntu version it screws with my Android folder structre...
Used to be /storage/emulated/0
Now I've got /storage/emulated/0/0/0/0/0
What can I do to prevent that or how can I fix it?

[Ze Master Patch][I9505 KK Roms to I9295 KK Roms(cm based only)][No More Jelly !]

Have you been looking at the I9505 Forums for a rom and you felt JELLY ?? ... Don't worry the days of being JELLY are seeing the light of the end .​
OKK Lets get started .​
What's this ?
Ze Master Patch is as you see in the name is a patch but not any patch , it's a magical recovery flash-able zip that makes any cm based rom for the I9505 installable on our phone with some slight modifications which will be covered in the guide later , what this pacakge does is replace or I9505 stuff with our I9295 stuff all libs all binaries and even a boot image etc ... let's continue further .

Wow !! ... How Did You Do This ??
A good magician never tells his secrets to anybody ... -naaah just kidding- ... it all started when i was bored and wanted to do something so i thought of something special i took the branches of a dev here in this community (will tell you more about him later) and noted the names of the proprietary files and extracted them 1 by 1 and flashed them upon a I9505 rom with a kernel made by the same dev i am going to tell you about annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd voilla i got some roms booting wooopa gammmnam style party in the chair !!.

What Shall i need to know more ?
You need a lot more !! you need to know 3 more things
1. The roms you can choose
A.You have to choose a rom that is based on cm
B. A Jflte (universal build) or Jfltexx (Regular I9295 Build) eg :

}
C. You have to do some modifications to the zip file before flashing
Extract your zip anywhere on the pc
Once extracted open META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script with notepad++
Delete the prop lines (if they exist) eg :
Repackge rom and flash it or read instructions or make collect dust for moments

installed it with CM11 for S4
- Wifi still not working
- Bluetooth not working (S4 Bluetooth works with active therefore no need to flash any Bluetooth files)
Could not test Camera though as was busy, will check and revert later
Edit: Camera App not showing up, installed google camera which also did not show up. seems to be an issue with the firmware / libs
GPS Working, but compass is not showing direction, checked with GPS Status
Edit2: Bluetooth including messaging (Bluetooth map service) works perfectly with original CM11 for S4 files (deleted the /app and /etc/Bluetooth folders from the ze_masterpatch)

I'm pretty sure it's going to be called Marshmallow!
If Google was Canadian, it would be Maple Sirup for sure
Enough Spam, now my question:
Can anyone give me a link to a site with detailed Information about Android M(arshmallow)? The Information on the Cyanogenmod Website aren't detailed enough for me. I look for Linux Kernel Version of Android M and changes they do in the Kernel. I've just started to learn about development, that's why I don't know where to look.

OK, we've all read about Sony not wanting to port their Marshmellow AOSP Kernel to Xperia SP.
What they refuse to do is the same work our developers are doing for Lollipop right now, do I get this right?
I read about a "Unified Kernel". What would be the benefit if this unified kernel was ported to the SP compared to the ports of the regular AOSP kernel that our developers do?

unified kernel = same kernel for a bunch of devices

I don't get what it is that is unified.
- Neither the RIL does belong to the unified Kernel nor does the camera driver.
- All the other driver stuff is different on the phones too.
- The code deep inside the AOSP kernel is the same on every device. As I read in a kernel porting tutorial, most of the work when porting a kernel is the hardware stuff.
I don't see what is left now.
I'd be happy if someone could give me a link or a place to search for more information.
Google is full of results from news sites where it is explained THAT the unified kernel exists and that it is a great thing. I can't find more detailed information because of that.

The unified kernel include all drivers for all devices, e.g. in the unified kernel you'll find the driver for every flash LED included in Xperia phones. It's great because in only one Github repo you have all the sources you need (this means that when a "general" bug is fixed you have to push it to only one repo and not to 17 different repos), and it is updated to the latest Linux kernel supported by Google, i.e. Linux 3.10.x.

This is kinda a bump because android m has been confirmed to be 6.0, marshmallow

Android 6.0 [MarshMallow] Official now

[UPDATE] Kali Nethunter finally on International Galaxy S3 (l9300)

As we know from a previous post, another person announced he ported Nethunter to l9300, BUT the fact was that the link he posted was incorrect!
What can we Gs3 users do?
REQUIREMENTS:
-ALWAYS make a backup before doing any "strange" actions.
-TWRP or CWM
-Cyanogenmod 13
-Boeffla Kernel
HOW TO DO THIS:
It's even easier than installing a custom ROM.
-Just go to https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-nethunter-download/
-Download the NEXUS 5 MARSHMALLOW .zip
-Flash it in recovery (always make sure you have a backup).
Don't worry if it takes a bit, it's normal.
KNOWN ISSUES:
-Of course, nexus 5 kernel is not the Galaxy s3's, this means some functions will probably NOT work.
-expect to (only while using nethunter app) have to reboot your device due to some freezing..

Is it necessary to use the Boeffla Kernel?

Actually i do not know if it is necessary, i wrote it because i had boeffla while i was flashing it, so in order to not make users brick their devices, just in case i suggest using it.
If some utilities (like the very common terminal issue) do not work, try looking at this post after you flash nethunter:

Thank you for your reply, I have another question, what is the difference with this tutorial?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/rom-kali-nethunter-porting-galaxy-s3-t3305011

I really would like to tell you if it works, but all the links are broken (i'm referred to that post, up here)..he actually says he ported a build made only for the galaxy s3...
In my post here i use the nexus 5 build, and probably with the differences between these two hardwares some features may not work.

It should work as well..
Yes of course this is kali linux but no, it's not going to turn your android device into linux.
Nethunter uses [email protected] in terminal to run linux commands...in other words it runs linux only in the terminal and it does not run the chroot itself but only the needed functionalities...
Go to android terminal emulator:
Type "Su",
And type: " bootkali".
And it will make you enter in the kali terminal

As we know from a previous post, another person announced he ported Nethunter to l9300, BUT the fact was that the link he posted was incorrect!
What can we Gs3 users do?
REQUIREMENTS:
-ALWAYS make a backup before doing any "strange" actions.
-TWRP or CWM
-Cyanogenmod 13
-Boeffla Kernel
HOW TO DO THIS:
It's even easier than installing a custom ROM.
-Just go to https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-nethunter-download/
-Download the NEXUS 5 MARSHMALLOW .zip
-Flash it in recovery (always make sure you have a backup).
Don't worry if it takes a bit, it's normal.
KNOWN ISSUES:
-Of course, nexus 5 kernel is not the Galaxy s3's, this means some functions will probably NOT work.
-expect to (only while using nethunter app) have to reboot your device due to some freezing..

have you tried the ported kali i9300? cant make it work it says fatal error old kernel stuff

Which versions of Boeffla and cyanogenmod 13 would you recommend for this?

Will it work on Lineage 14.1 ?
How to Update Kernel ?

i can't believe this actually flashed correctly whitout any bootloop and more. i just have an error in nethunter terminal, as the kali shell doesn't work. it seems that "data/local/nhsystem/kali-arm64 directory does not exist!!.". guess ill try to rename, move that file or other stuffs...

Mmmh, very interesting indeed.
Think I'll try building Nethunter for my Note 3 (that's sitting unused since I moved on to Poco hardware...), when I get some spare time and am bored.
Have you tried building a custom kernel from the Samsung open-source kernel tree ? Might work better, especially if you repurpose the baseband firmware from a stock ROM.
