Hello, is there any way so we can boot Samsung stock JB with Google JB side by side .

Buy a second Note. Otherwise no. I don't think we have a kernel which supports dual boot at the moment.
There was a project, but I think its development is/has been stopped.

some time ago a dev made a Kernel Script which supports to have more than one Rom at the same time installed on our Note,
you could switch between them at booting
but unfortunately this time is over

i was wondering, does any phone have the power to run windows 7 like as a virtual machine, like as an app

Yes, most do.
However, it would be way to slow to be usable.
Now running ubuntu on a phone is a lot easier. Try it instead.

Hey all. Is it possible to instal linux on the swift? WITHOUT using androidVNC?
Sent from my GT540 using XDA Premium App
Always though android was linux based, can you sum androidVNC up in a few word for us?
As far as i know you can make a dual boot installing debian or ubuntu, but the whole replacement of the firmware i dont know!
that would be awsome when someone makes dual boot to our swift with ubuntu/android , i installed ubuntu , but it needed androidVNC, for graphical use, but without androidVNC , you can use terminal(commands)(without kde,gnome or something)
by the way, is it easy todo dual boot menu for our swift?
i've installed ubuntu on my pc , to start with that

You still expect that? I had this in my mind too but it's just too much of work. I mean modifying the boot loader completely needs a good amount of programming knowledge.
Ok, i was thinking of getting the windows 8 in dual boot... So i did a partition... But some of my friends saying that i need to backup my data but my data is in the another partition, sooo... Do i need to backup?

You don't have to, its just a good idea just incase anything bad happens. Like choosing the wrong partition.

I have an Acer Aspire 5738G with an intel core 2 duo and 4gb ram, I only have a 250gb HDD (I have a 1TB USB HDD for my music and video's ect)
anyway i partitioned 60gb for windows developer preview, and it works great, obviously a little slower than WIN7 because its pre beta.
You get a posh new boot option screen to dual boot too

Make sure you install windows 8 dev pre from boot to get dual boot, otherwise the installation will install over the existing operating system.

It decided to hijack the Win7 bootloader on my system and erased the option to boot into both Win7 and Linux.
I was really wanting to like it but as usual Microsoft always finds a way to piss me off. Plus they still managed to find a way to make it even less intuitive than before. eg. they added an extra two steps before you can even restart the computer
But anyways, it's formatted now and I don't plan on reinstalling it anytime soon...

And whatever you do, make sure you pick the new empty partition you created and go for clean install. NOT upgrade

I have not been able to find any threads for the Nexus 10, but I was wondering if it were possible to dual boot the Nexus10?
My goal is to try and install both Android and Ubuntu Touch preview on my nexus 10 tablet so I could try out Ubuntu touch without losing all of my android functionality.
Are there any resources on how to do this and has anyone ever attempted to do dual booting on the Nexus 10.

I found MultiROM for the nexus 7, which seems to work exact how I wanted, even supporting booting from otg cable. However, there was no release for Nexus 10, or planned, and there was one thread asking about its existence on the Nexus 10 but was locked by a moderator for being in the wrong sub forum.

Yes it mostly has to do with kernel and recovery but rom must also be edited to work on dual boot. On my xperia play I can boot up to 4 ROMs using turbo kernel. The kernel creates slots on the SD card where the other ROMs are installed. I don't know a lot about how its done. But its very useful to have especially when you have a low ram phone so you could boot different android versions. Now if someone could get that done for nexus 10 it'd be awesome. Cosmicdan is the developer who did it for xplay

Hi,
Does exist some version of Firefox OS for Galaxy S3?
Thanks!
I think its not so easy to port Firefox to any android device , maybe just for now maybe later we can see firefox on android device and also
android os on firefox devices
Yea its not easy to port it but when someone does there will be lots of bugs!
But when its done, it could be very nice to have.
Is this for the international S3?
I can't find any reference to where you found this file.

android is replacing every OS of present day. even the PC,s are reverting to this os due to its open platform and easy use.it will be far better if Android is promoted and progressed instead of introducing new os like that of firefox.it will take a very long time to streamline and turn it a bugless os.

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.
