Was just wondering if you'd gotten it via a download from Amazon. Amazon seems to be surprisingly open with this release. I know they've posted source and firmware, already.
Any easy guide to run a plain linux version
I was wondering if I can run a simple linux version up. The form factor and cost makes it a great candidate to replace some Raspberry Pi where more processing is required.
Thoughts?
You would have to wait until it's rooted, and the bootloader is unlocked for recovery but it should not be difficult to build from source for it. I believe Ubuntu targets the Krait SOC.

it looks pretty similar to inforce ifc6410 single board computer.. fedora w/ custom kernel and rebuild of latest mesa for gfx drivers, and you should be good to go:
https://github.com/freedreno/freedreno/wiki/Fedora
I guess same should work for ubuntu/debian/whatever.. basically all you need, if the distro doesn't already have it, is mesa 10.1 (or later preferred for more fps and features), xf86-video-freedreno, libdrm.. and of course a rebuilt kernel
Would you also be able to dump /data?

Hi guys,
I've just came across this new device for the Chinese market and here are the specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_v-4805.php
It has almost the same hardware as our old N1, above all NOTE that it has the same Adreno200 for graphics :good:
For now I have downloaded a European RUU (RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.59.401.1_Radio_1.05.34D.25_20.20.30.22U_release_263747_signed) for this Desire V (codenamed Primo?), and I have extracted the system.img.
Now to extract the content of that image I have to play with a Linux environment..
I've tried with unyaffs.exe but this image won't extract with that utility. I think the only solution is to "mount -o loop system.img" or something like that.
Do you think it's possible to do something?
Please remember that I'm only a cooker, with some (a little) experience, but with NO Java knowledge..

I agree with xeloni. Shaky was using the One V rom dump, which has the Adreno205 gpu!
The great thing of having a device with at least the same GPU is that we can have the right GPU files/drivers and maybe have a complete full gpu rendering. Obviously we gonna have to build a 3.0 kernel and proper cpu drivers...

Hi guys,
I've been trying to get Sailfish running on my LG Optimus L9 (OMAP 4430 - same as Galaxy S2 or Pandaboard).
1. First step of course was to build CM (in this case CM 10.2). So I built it.
2. Second step - get libhybris running on it (it's a layer allowing bionic Android drivers to work on 'normal' C based X11 or Wayland) - did it (at least applied patches and still successfully built CM)
3. Third step - Build Mer using Mer Platform SDK - did it, but can't get it to work.
I have Android kernel which should be capable of running Wayland, have a Mer build (WIP, untested), so I think it's very close to running Sailfish (just have to zypper install ARM packages on this Mer).
The thing is I got stuck - please help. I have my CM+libhybris working (can't test libhybris but it's not crashing).
I have Mer system in a folder and in a tar.g2 file. Can't flash it though because fastboot says it's too big and recovery fails to flash while flashing it through Android kitchen -> update.zip.
If anyone has any idea - please share.

how did you get tar.g2 or zip?
That's what Mer Platform SDK outputs. It takes a kickstater file for the build and produces a tar.g2.

it depends what output option did you specified, usualy i use loop image.
may be you images is bigger then partition which you try to flash.
also you can ask polish guy stskeeps on libhybris irc channel.

No, partition size is ok, flashed it today with recovery (edited flash script). Boots past LG logo, throws a few errors and freezes. I'm not at home right now, but I think it's symlinks' fault, it can't find some script, will check it later.

if you didn`t do this then you phone still use initrd from android, you should at least change kernel command line because sailfish do not use initrd.

Yeah, I believe it's my current problem. Fastboot is not really a perfect Linux-booting tool. I got my bootloader unlocked and it only allows fastboot. Every way to boot Mer I found so far uses U-boot or a similar bootloader. Usual Android bootloader may not be able to manage it. Maybe that's the reason Ubuntu was abandoned when flipped images came out... I will look into that further, thank you for your replies.

So I checked the file - the architecture was ok (ARM7HL) so I only edited repo links in .yml file - links were dead.
The problem is - in the tutorials I found people dd-ed the output tar.bz2 to an SD card and boot their devices from it. I don't know if that's possible for a stock Android bootloader and I don't know how to bypass that.
Regarding boot.img mentioned earlier - I'm using the one built from libhybris-slightly-modified CM sources.
I don't really know where to go from here, I would love to rum Mer/Harmattan/Sailfish on my phone, but it seems I have to wait until they release their Nexus 4 work and then try porting it. So fingers crossed.
The error I'm getting is "Cannot execve system/bin/sh". And that's not a typo on my part - it print "execve". Checked it more than once - this file is a symlink to file "bash" in the same folder, my updater-script sets this symlink and executable permissions for the file but it doesn't help.

i`m think you should create it manualy using mkbootimg.
boot.img is kernel + initrd + command line combined into file.
initrd contains root filesystem and android do not do switch root as desktop linux do.
system.img is mounted under /system dir, if you flashed sailfish os root image on partiotion where was system.img then it will not work.
because boot.img started first and it expect usual android system.img on that partition.

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.

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 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

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.

Does anyone have a HTC Desire 700 dual SIM (also called 7060 in several regions), codenamed cp5dug ? If possible, can you compile it with
Code:
https://github.com/minimal-manifest-twrp/platform_manifest_twrp_omni
as the manifest,
Code:
https://github.com/minhducsun2002/android_kernel_htc_cp5dug/
as the kernel source and
Code:
https://github.com/minhducsun2002/android_device_htc_cp5dug/
as the device tree, then boot the output recovery ?
Code:
out/target/product/cp5dug/recovery.img
).
Mine doesn't boot for some reason.
Many thanks for any support.
Try pulling a few logs.If there are some built try them first.It's highly uncommon for recoveries to not boot.The only reasons being the architecture.That is a S5 recovery will boot on z2 note 3 and even nexus 5 without complications.So,You weirded up big times.

Well, which logs do you mean? The partially-booted recovery yielded no logs.

Guys over at 4pda make a working CWM recovery, but selecting menu items isn't possible, so, theoretically, it boots but it's useless.

I re-tried with the stock kernel. No luck.
Professional Advice.

So I asked a guy who has very vast knowledge of android and stuff and he said that the only reasons for this kinda behaviour would either be a cortex arch or a custom snapdragon.

Thank you so much. But... I compiled with Google's ARM-EABI 4.9 official toolchain, and the source code of the kernel was the version provided by HTC, so..., well, it should have worked.
