[APP] Compiled lynx binary for android - Shell or ADB

I've searched the web, and found no lynx binaries for android, so I set out to compile it myself.
For the uninitiated, lynx is a text-based browser. No images, no javascript, no flash. Just pure content.
You can use it by connecting to your phone through adb, telnet, ssh or a shell on the phone itself.

This is lynx version 2.8.8 with ncurses 5.9
I pretty much just followed the instructions at http://www.embedu.org/Column/Column294.htm, and added a flag to make the linking static. No code changes were required.
Installation instructions
Root is not required.
You need to unzip the file on the /sdcard folder. The following files must exist:
/sdcard/lynx/lynx.cfg
/sdcard/lynx/lynx.lss
/sdcard/lynx/cache/
Then you need to move the binary to /data/local (or /system/xbin if you want something more permanent. Then you'd need root)
and run this command:
chmod 755 /data/local/lynx
Then run :
/data/local/lynx
and enjoy!
Additional information
If you want to put these files somewhere else, you must redefine the following variables, respectively:
LYNX_CFG (eg: export LYNX_CFG=/system/etc/lynx.cfg)
LYNX_LSS (eg: export LYNX_LSS =/system/etc/lynx.lss)
TMPDIR (eg: export TMPDIR =/cache)
If you receive an error message about the terminal, you need to configure a terminal.
Here are some instruction (for nano, but it works the same)
Sources are at the following addresses:
http://lynx.browser.org/
http://www.gnu.org/s/ncurses/

soon get the flash-able package

Thanks! I installed this on my ZTE Blade with 2.3.4 Gingerbread, but after setting everything in Terminal Emulator, I get these errors:
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.

Awesome
Will be testing on my thunderbolt later today. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
However, would you mind reposting this on RW, or would you mind if I were to repost it and link back?
[EDIT] In having just configured everything, I also get the error from the post above. It seems as though lynx thinks it doesn't have internet access. This is the case on 3g and wireless networks. Let me know if you want me to test anything for you.[/EDIT]
All the best,

Looks great.
May I add that to my script ?

Well, I was able to install it from a chrooted ubuntu 10.10 distro on my device. It's already compiled for ARM on ports.ubuntu.com, so maybe it's not so exclusive.

Nice. Can you point me to the correct file? I got as far as http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/l/lynx-cur/, but I don't know which one contains the binary.

While this is quite cool, why lynx? Why not elinks? It has much better layout capabilities. It has tabs! It even has javascript.

ADB and similar command line tools for Android have been a pain for new users to learn and extra work for the Developer while working.
Personally, I got sick of typing and having to remember things so I made this tool. It is also nice because it is mucho faster than I could do it!
I will be cleaning things up and making it look nicer (more even...?) as well as releasing the source code soon. Be patient!

UPDATES:

- Linux Version Added - runs on ALL Linux standard distros
- Linux version requires device to be hooked up and present or it will not go past the first screen
- Linux version shows real time activity in the Bash terminal!
- Linux version requires you to go through the true google agreement (keeps code distro kosher)
10/27/11
- FIXED Bug-report
- DDMS Runs natively (if you do not care about DDMS, download the old version here: http://www.multiupload.com/OQSF5U7QNH)
- No longer requires a device to be plugged in to start up. check test.txt
EVERYTHING RUNS FROM WITHIN THE APPLICATION FOLDER.
This was done simply because I like to be able to carry my tools on a small flash drive and not install anything.
There is no need to install the whole SDK to get access to a few key tools.
ALL OF THE PROGRAM FUNCTION OUTPUTS ARE TXT FILES THAT SAVE TO THE APP FOLDER
This just keeps things nice and tidy. You have everything right there to look over when you want to.
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!
This will tell you how to use each function.
LEARN ADB
Allows new users to find out just how much fun (and Linux) is in there. Yay shell!

QUESTIONS? Shoot me a PM or Email that is enclosed in the instructions

Looks like an awesome tool, but i need the Linux version

Its working, I just need to make sure it works on all of the major Linux Distros.
Regular Ubuntu 10.04 is being finicky. Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and RedHat are playing nicely.
I just want to make sure that it is good for all before release. It also autohandles your path so all you have to do is a "chmod +x AndroBox", then "./AndroBox" and you are good to go!
Thanks

Great tool, thanks a lot

Updated - everything should work GREAT now. DEBUG (DDMS) runs natively and FULLY!!!!!
If you do not care about DDMS, use the older version as it is MUCH smaller since it does not need the included library files.

Great !
Waiting for tool that workin with linuxmint

HEY GUYS - I HAVE A WORKING LINUX VERSION, BUT I NEED PEOPLE WHO WANT TO DO A PRIVATE BETA!

How do i start the linux version up?
Do i need to use terminal or?

You probably need to install the VirtualBox Addon package for linux.
Before installing the Guest Additions, you will have to prepare your guest system for building external kernel modules:
sudo apt-get install dkms
Insert the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso CD file into your Linux guest's virtual CD-ROM drive - so mount the ISO for the guest additions (it can be found in the VirtualBox installation directory)
Change to the directory where your CD-ROM drive is mounted and execute as root:
sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Problems Running axon7backup.exe On Windows 10

Just got a nice new Axon 7 A2017U. I updated it to B29, which turned out to be a stupid mistake since I now cannot unlock the bootloader. I've been attempting to backup the stock stuff and also flash TWRP using tenfar's axon7backup.exe, but I cannot get it to actually go through. On one of my computers I get the "You cannot run this program in a VirtualMachine" error, and on the other 2 I have tried, the application just sits there with no output beyond "Version 1.10". I am able to make the program output errors when I input the wrong COM port #, but using the one that actually corresponds to my phone in EDL mode just hangs the program until I kill it with CTRL+C. All 3 of the machines I have tried to use are running Windows 10, not sure if that matters.
Has anybody seen this kind of thing and if so, did you find a way around this?
Would it make sense to look at downgrading the firmware on the phone to B27 so I can just use fastboot oem unlock like a normal phone? Also, with the bootloader unlocked do I still have to use the tenfar tool to flash TWRP? For now I'll probably just stick with the stock firmware, but I reeeeeally wanted to run CM13 on this phone.
Here's a screenshot of my cmd output for the curious:

Yes his command was wrong, but the "virtual machine" problem is irrespective of that. I finally used a W7 machine, but certainly like to resolve this.

There is an AWESOME key on your keyboard that is called PRINTSCREEN. You should try that out sometimes. It takes a screenshot of your screen. You don't even need to take a picture of your screen with a camera!!! :highfive:

Worked fine on Windows 10. Used the compatibility checker and I think it used Windows 7

You mean because I put "COM3" instead of "3"? Because tenfar's documentation explicitly states you can do either, and I have tested both. Please elaborate.

That's the only difference I could see between ours. I do have windows in test mode to disable driver signing but I can't imagine that makes a difference

Word, that's what I figured. Not a huge deal, just figured I'd try to get some more info on troubleshooting the application. In the meantime I already set up the stock ROM, and I'm honestly not unhappy with it so far. I disabled all the unwanted apps, and with both 64 GB internal storage AND a micro SD card slot, I can afford to have the extra stuff taking up some space The hardware on this phone is a god damned STEAL for $400 USD!

The tool is not running in virtual machines. You need a physical device with Q10 installed properly in order to run flawlessly. Let it install the drivers and then install the Qualcomm driver. For me it worked fine on first try.

Bugginess is due to services crashing in the background and also its not 64bit rootfs primarily media-hub and location that 'might' get fixed when somebody gets apparmor working...

Yeah everything should work eventually, its mostly app-armor, the system expects it and its not in kernel ... so things can be fixed in linuxy way ofc through terminal for example gps is a permission issue (idk why) but have to dip into sources and rebuild the system and make our own device adaptation

I think I found something that could help with apparmor:

Scroll where it says "building the kernel", it mentions something about enabling apparmor

Hello, apparmor has been fixed... so far
No camera and no mtp usb , no flashlight , rest of hardware works
The build has some bugs like can't change volume during calls and similar small things that matter for daily use case... and then there is an overall slowness of the os ...
I'm doing multiple builds everyday trying to fix camera , if you want to try and use the latest build i can upload it for you

That would be cool, the only thing that changes is the hybris-boot.img, right?

Aight, if there's a tutorial of how to update the device tree and the kernel and build it so you don't have to upload it would be better (if it doesn't take too much to build)

I have the same specs, so I'll try future builds, as It's faster than downloading
