Hi!
I consider buying the yoga book soon(windows 10), and was wondering if the next softwares are suitable for it:
-Numpy/Anaconda ( writing code in python but pretty basic level)
-subtitle workshop
Besides that, my only usage of it will be writing notes and watxhing netflix.

The xda-developers forum is really great ! I love it. Was my first place to go, after I bought my ATRIX some weeks ago in USA.
A lot of these threads, specially of the section "Atrix 4G Android Developmen" and due to such experts, like kennethpenn (for example), are awesome.
I do not know, what was the reason for you fellows to get an Android smartphone. Mine was to replace my 8 years old cellphone from Samsung with a mondern smart phone. To be honest, the "telephone option" was the less important one. I like the MP3, video and some little games (as Sokoban and Pinball). Of course could have been an other operation system, but Windoz mobile was out of question (I hate everything from M$), Macintoy is too much restriceted and I love Linux. Therefore was an easy decision for me.
For me, as a Linux-fanboy, it was (and still is) a little bit sad that a lot of applications (remote control, synchronizing, ...) and all hacks are running on Windoz. Maybe some there are other ones here in the xda-formum feeling the same.
Therefore my suggestion to the responsibles of the forum:
- Could be an idea to open a sub-forum (or a sub-sub forum) for the Linux-fanboys to exchange information.
and my suggestion to other members:
- Lets share information, ideas about applications (tips, tricks, ... ) running perfect with Linux operating system.
To begin.
- The Moto Phone Portal application is not (too) bad. Running nice with Firefox and Ubuntu (Linux). Except the filemanager option.
"File Manager access supported on Internet Explorer only." Upps ! Even the Windoz-fanboys do not use this buggy program.
- IP Webcam. Running nice with Firefox and Ubuntu (Linux)
- SSHDroidPro. Running perfect with Gnome-commander and Nautilus on Ubuntu.
Hey ! No Linux Fans around ?
Or may be I should explain my thread better. I did not want to talk about Linux (would be the wrong forum), but about Android applications which work well together with Linux operating system.
For example up to now, I haven't found any application synchronizing calendar (lightning) and address book of Thunderbird (for Linux) with K-9 Mail on Android.
Or would be very interesting to have a remote control from your Linux laptop on your smart phone. To use the screen, keyboard etc. of the laptop.
I like the idea. I am a linux guy. I run several different distros. All under Virtualbox currently. I have been working on getting syncing and everything up and going this way.
Hi, as your intro video states, "im a noob"
Well actually im a noob studying engineering (cant be very good for the industry!) and as part of my course I need to be able to program Java applications and PIC microcontrollers. Obviously android isnt suited for such things so im very interested in a dual boot with linux/ubuntu.
I'd like to ask if anyone else has used their transformer running ubuntu/linux for java programming (eclipse?) and PIC programming (MPLAB X?). And also if anybodys used a Pickit 3 with their transformer for debugging?
As far as I can tell, this should be possible since both these requirements require java and can be done on ubuntu/linux. from searching i can see people have got ubuntu natively working on the transformer, and the "Linux for Tegra" looks promising too. Anybody else with experience?
Thanks in advance
I recently purchased a Lenovo Yoga Book with Windows and have been recently doing a lot of essays for my French class and have needed to use accents, but the most effective way of getting them on the Yoga Book has been to pull up the on-screen keyboard. Also, getting an em dash and dagger would be useful. Surely there's a more efficient way of typing the accents? My old computer was running Linux, and I got it to be able to run key commands using the alt key like on macs - if this is possible, that would be preferable. Thanks!
Well I grew up multilingual and just added all the languages I type with in Windows own "Language preferences". Or do I not understand your question?
Does anyone know if the device has a removable CMOS battery/CMOS-Jumper?
Don't forget to share your teardown/disassembling video... I want to see that Yoga Book open ??*
here you can see how to open it youtu.be/qHpXzsvEOaA
In this type of device the only thing you can do is find the bios chip and try to reflash it using an eeprom programmer (you need to find the right one )
Who on earth wants to go through that struggle?
But what I see from that video: the yoga book is an amazing piece of art ?
I"ve found a nice VXP, i still not tried it for fear of bricking by smartwatch. Once upon a time, there was a RePhone based on MT2502, and it was possible to develop in Lua for it.
I've found it here :
Lua for RePhone
Its for MT2502 but i believe it count be adapted for later mediatek models...
Lua is a nice language to develop, we could make all the missing features, like twitter, facebook etc, maybe we cannot do a brower or youtube client, but many simpler things could be done using lua, including new watchfaces etc...
While i am not a C++ developer, i can help with Lua development.
We can cheaply have an equivalent to Watchy (that costs $50 bucks).
Edit :
Also found the following :
Lua on RePhone manual
unfotunately is paywalled.
Edit 2:
Further search yielded a firmware that has only Lua language :
Lua firmware for MT2502
I dont recommending flashing your smartwatch right away because we need more information.
In other words, it could do a smartwatch solely based on lua apps. Lua watchfaces etc.
Edit 3:
By searching the source code i see that :
1 - It runs init.lua if called as an app.
2 - It assumes the device to have an ST7789S as screen, might be wrong.
3 - It retargets the i/o to the serial port. Might be usefull to not have any character i/o at all.
From what i found in the source code, it calls init.lua then proceeds to create a console to accept commands, that might not be the right behaviour for writing smartwatch apps (maybe, start, run arbitary lua file from command line preferably, then quit).
