Boot from sdcard
There is a way to run PostmarketOS on a Micro SD Card (an easy but a little bit dirty way):
What you have to do:
Download my XFCE 2.0 img file HERE and burn the img to the Micro SD Card (using an image USB writer program). You can also instead write your own image to the Micro SD Card using pmbootstrap: pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/path/to/sdcard
Download the FAKE pmOS zip HERE. It's a sample zip file to avoid errors of the initial script installer. Then, push it to the tablet using `adb push` and then flash it.
Your device must have TWRP recovery installed. So, go to TWRP recovery now.
WIPE /system partition (where sample postmarketOS is installed).
Insert your Micro SD Card to your tablet.
Reboot and enjoy!

XFCE is one of the Desktop Environments that you can choose on PostmarketOS installation. In this device, it is the most stable for me.
Edit: Like you said, maybe if I have time, could install a theme for XFCE to modernify it.

They have anbox packaged, but i think won't work. Mind that it's using a 3.x.x kernel (and at the moment of writing, kernel.org will hit 5.10 soon)

I'm trying to fix at least the WiFi issue, because you can only connect with nmcli.
The hard work now is to port the kernel into mainline sources on kernel.org (that can be really long), so then I don't have to carry an entire fork for just this device.
Because the OMAP chip is supported, maybe it can be a little bit easier.
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_OMAP_4_(OMAP44xx)
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Mainlining
I only distribute the XFCE image, but I'm also trying to fix some TODO issues (most important ones, it's not worth to spend a lot of time on an outdated 3.x.x kernel) and making a prettier desktop environment.
So... of course is not the end. In fact, there's so much work to do

Wow still working on an 8 year old device I'm amazed!! Thanks a lot
Also im using it on espresso3g (if that helps u fix bugs)
I am more than happy to test this (cant tell battery info my battery is old and dosent work properly) but other features and issues i will try and tell you!
I would also love to help develop it but I have no clue on how the code for a custom OS works and i guess it requires Linux and a beefy computer
All the best and thanks!

Wow, I didnt think i would be this happy until ICS was available for the touchpad. This works beautifully, and finally renders the screen properly so the icons and text are crystal clear and not blocky.
I am using button savior from the market to get the soft buttons. Here is my screenshot

If you are already on CM Alpha or MIUI skip to step 7, if not you can follow the instructions below to install MIUI for the TouchPad from WebOS.
Alright, here is a step by step instruction on how to install MIUI Beta on Touchpad. I did notice there is a video guide but a text step by step might be useful for some. I have this installed and for Alpha release this is fantastic.
Pretty straightforward installation, but as always you follow this guide and flash at your own risk. Main thread for the MIUI port is on RootzWiki. Read what’s working and what’s not working there. If you have any questions, post it there, but read the known issues first, don't post know issues. This is just a guide.
Required:
1) PC ( windows, mac or linux) with working Internet
2) HP Touchpad ( obviously) and the usb cable that came with it.
3) Good Reading skills ( I am serious).
4) Read this guide twice if you have to.
Step 0:
Get your pre flash jitters out and think twice. This will root your device and hence your warranty will be void after the flash. If you still want to flash, back up your current HP touchpad. Figure out which way is your volume up button ( you will need for step 4) and proceed to step 1
Step 1:
Make sure you have at least 2GB of free space in your touchpad. Download the following files from here
1)Moboot bootloader for multi boot
2)MIUI.us Alpha Rom
3)Clockwork Mod Recovery
Once done, go to step 2 below;
Step 2:
1)Acme Installer from here
2) HP WebOS SDK for windows, mac or linux
3) Follow the links above to install the full SDK or just the Novacom driver which is all that is required. If you are not sure, install the full SDK.
on to step 3 now.
Step 3:
1) Connect Touchpad to PC with the USB cable that came with it and select USB Drive option.
2) Once the Touchpad pops up on your screen, create a folder called cminstall and put the files you downloaded in Step 1 there.
3) Eject/Safely remove touchpad from the pc, remove the USB cable from pc and shutdown touchpad, then go to step 4.
Step 4:
1) Do you know which way is your volume up button? if you are not sure then you are not paying attention to this guide. To figure out which way, boot to webOS, figure it out and shutdown.
2)Hold the volume up button and press power button simultaneously. You should see a white USB symbol.
3)Connect the USB cable back to pc and if the Novacom drivers were properly installed, the driver will be automatically detected and installed.
Step 5:
Almost there, time to install now.
Extract the Acme Installer you downloaded in Step 2 to your desktop or wherever you want. Open up cmd ( in windows) or terminal ( in linux or mac). cd to the directory where you just extracted your Acme Installer.zip and go to step 6 for install.
Step 6:
Now type this in the command prompt after you have done cd
novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller
NOTE: windows users might have to manually move the novacom.exe and/or AcmeInstaller into c:\programfiles\palm folder and run the above command from there.
and wait for it to install and boot into CyanogenMod/MIUI. If your clockwork mod didn't get installed, go here for a fix.
Step 7:
Update from CM Alpha any MIUI
1) Download MIUI above or at roms.miui.us
2) Plug in your touchpad to PC, select copy usb files option
3) Transfer MIUI.us zip file into the "sd card" of your touchpad when it pops up and disconnect.
4) Long press power button and select reboot, then recovery option.
5) Recommended but Optional ( I didn't): In CWM recovery, go to backup and storage, do a nandroid backup before updating, back to main cwm recovery, wipe cache and in advanced wipe dalvik cache.
6) In the CWM recovery meny, use your volume buttons and select install zip file from sd card, select zip file and select cm alpha 3 zip, then scroll down and say yes.
7) Reboot. To check if you are on alpha 3, go to settings, about tablet and mod version should be alpha3.
Google Market and Gmail are included in zip. Just navigate to settings and sync add google account.
Have Fun. Thanks to the awesome CM team, we have android on touchpad.
topic add to favs ! thanks scott !
Wow this is the biggest freaken win ever thanks Scott will donate again after a couple more bugs are worked out you are amazing!

Got this installed this afternoon.
First tip: Install Button Savior from the Market to get some onscreen soft keys - its not that elegant but it does work until we get some soft keys similar to other MIUI tablet releases. You need to allow requests in Superuser for root access for it to work fully.
Overall I'm really impressed with how functional this is for an initial release. Amazed, actually.
There are some visual bugs (see notification bar in 2nd screenshot), the Phone app FC etc.. but these things are to be expected. A few sound glitches as well when playing music. Haven't tried any games yet.
Fantastic, i love MIUI for my phone so this will be a great stop gap rom until we see some ICS on the TP.
Good to see others are still working on TP roms
Good job scott951! this will be fun to mess with
thanks for button savior forgot about that app

We now have a Q&A thread HERE please use this for questions about the project. This thread is for development only!
This project started off in this forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390351
However since then the project has grown and just keeps growning! Featuring a ever growing range of distros
The TEAM!
The team consist of:
zacthespack
tuxling
WEM97 [DONATE]
Think you have something to bring to the team? then contact me and we shall talk
What is this all about?/Why put this on my device?
This projects aim is to bring a range of linux distros to your android device through a method known as 'chroot', see it has running a linux distro within a virtual machine on your phone (Although its not! its using native ARM ports and the Android kernel) . You can access this virtual machine and run it on your phone without causing any damage to your device, or having to overwrite anything. Why might you want this? well my apps are designed to make the install and set up process as easy as possible while still giving you some flexibility. Once you have the distro up and running then you can pretty much run and install any linux software you like (so long as there is a arm port or it is not architecturally dependent).
Wait this uses VNC why shouldn't I just VNC to a computer?
VNC is used to access the GUI as at the moment I have not yet implemented a native way of viewing the GUI. But the Linux distro itself is running within the phone and can be controlled via the terminal app so if your a seasoned Linux user you may never even want to use the GUI
What is Chroot?/How does this work?
"A chroot on Unix operating systems is an operation that changes the apparent root directory for the current running process and its children" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot
This method of running linux distros with android has been around for some time. I have worked on my scripts to make the process more user friendly and give you far more options from the word go.
The scripts start by mounting the linux image file within the android file system and then mounts the sdcard and if you have it internal memory within the linux file system.
Chroot is then used to change the root directory to that of the mounted linux and a bash shell is then opened to allow you to control linux this is kind of like 'booting' the OS.
The likes of VNC and SSH are then set up when linux is 'booted' to allow you to connect to the GUI if you require it.
Interested?
Ok so you want to get one of the support linux distros on your device, great welcome to the team
But first you will need to find out if your device is compatible with the method before anything else, this method 'should' work with pretty much any device but some ROM's/kernels will not work as they do not have loop device support etc.
HERE is a list of working devices and ROM's/kernels but remember just because its not on the list simply means no one has told me its working, it could still work!
Free Apps/Files
App
The App can be download via google play or the open source version can be download via source forge.

I have this feeling you are about to be in high demand if all the ISC Webtop 3.0 videos are accurate. It's looks like Moto killed Ubuntu and replaced it with tablet mirroring mode.
BTW- Played with this on an Epic 4G and really like it. Could have used this last year for the Evo Desktop PC.

Runnin slow linux on android ? -> lets do Ultralight
Howdy, pardners!
I suggest ARM porting Puppy linux or some other other really light distro to gain maximum performace out of mobile device.
Also there ultra-light desktops . It seems that the best would be Ratpoison or Awesome. These are easy to incorporate into now available port of Ubuntu for android.
These should together provide fast and small display suitable linux env. for your mobile device!
see ya round!

I got Debian to work on a Huawei U8800 Ideos X5 with the Aurora 2.0.4 ROM.
Everything was running smooth and great, but then I logged out from the system to see if I could switch DEs.
From there, all I saw was the wallpaper of the desktop and nothing else.
I exited with the terminal and tried again. Now I get this message:
VNC connection failed!
failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1 (port 5900):

Is there any way I could reset the cache and try everything again?
ALSO, after the sh-ing debian.sh, this is what I get:

It was different than before, so I thought this would be useful information.

Hmmm looks like you broke vnc I would recommend reinstalling vnc do apt-get remove tightvncserver then apt-get install tightvncserver
then do a restart of your device and try again.
If you want to use a different desktop you need to configure it in in /root/.vnc/xstartup vnc dosnt run right if you log out of a session and thus is broke, didnt think vnc even let you log out but guess it will

well it includes faster downloads of the files from a server not just source forge, you can boot by clicking a button in yhe app so no more typing commands, you will get all future distros and updates first and the best bit is you get this amazing feeling for helping a developer keep releasing amazing stuff (if i do say so myself )

Thanks for the logs, appreciate that .
I think this feature could be done but my main focus now is on getting android up and running without booting problems, still there are issues with some devices
Wait for another version soon with multiple bugfixes and UI improvements.
Thanks
Not all system requirements are met, Please check the installer log.
Dears,
Greetings for this tremendous work!
Few days ago I've bought an Windows Tablet, While I trying to install Androidx86-Installv2.exe the below message appears:
"Not all system requirements are met
Please check the installer log."
I've attached the installer log and my System Info.
Basically I want to switch from Windows to Android.
If is there any method I repeat any method or system for my Tab, please please suggest me.
I don't want to buy another tab or device.
Lots of thanks in advance and waiting for .......
With best regards,
Rana.

I'm testing this program on ASUS T100TAM, with Android x86 5.1 RC1
I hope it works

If you can add Android directly to Windows Boot Manager that would be great
I recommend to set 8100MB of Partition for who have a little HDD for have 6GB of USER Memory
After I upload LOG
Thanks for the update bro. Working fine in iBall Slide (WQ149i) 2-in-1 Wifi Tablet. But facing minor bug in Android (Not related to the installer)
Also is there is a way/option to make the Android Read-Writable (Ignore if posted in wrong thread) for root access.

THIS THREAD IS NOT MONITORED, ANY HELP REQUEST/QUESTION/BUG SUBMISSION MUST BE POSTED INTO THE TELEGRAM GROUP OR THEY WILL BE IGNORED
WakeBlock is an app that, through a system modification, allows users to block or limit any system wakelock, without the need of any kind of framework.
Currently, we support all versions of Android from Nougat 7.0 to Q 10. We plan to continue the support for future Android version, while anything under Android 7.0 won't be supported. While the patch is supposedly working on ANY device, we won't know unless we try. So try this and let us know!
Recently, we updated the coremod for better compatibility and even added Dark Mode!
This modification can be applied Systemless-ly with Magisk, by creating the Magisk Module from inside the app.
The app is currently in beta stage, so is missing many features we plan to implement in future releases.
Also, beware that the current version of the app is released for free, but it may become paid/donation based in the future.

FAQ
Here you can find the most common questions and their respective answer. Simple as that. READ THEM.
Q - How do i use wakeblock?
A - Once you have installed the app, just open it and click on "Install Core Mod", the app will create the Core Mod needed for your device (this might take a while, from 5 to 30 minutes) and then will reboot the phone to flash it. When the phone has rebooted, open the app: If the message says "Service Bound" you're all set!
Q - How can i block wakelocks?
A - From within the app, just switch to the "Wakelock" tab. Here every wakelock recorded since the first boot with the core mod installed, so give it at least 2/3 days of normal use before blocking anything. Click on the wakelock you want to block, press the "Block" button and then set for how long is the wakelock gonna be blocked!
Q - Which wakelock should i block? For how long?
A - We suggest to check out this guide on XDA to fully understand what it means to block a wakelocks and how it affects your system.
Q - I'm lazy af and i don't want to read all of that, can't you give me a short list?
A - Ok, but we don't take any responsibilities if the phone bricks or your ROM explodes. You are totally free to change the blocking time value to make it as you please but, again, we don't take any responsibilities. You can find the list here. Remember: if you don't find one of the wakelocks, just check in later. If you still don't find it, don't worry at all! Side note: the search button is not case-sensitive.
Q - Can i block the [wakelock name] wakelock?
A - If it is part of the list linked above, you're good to go! If not, we can't assure a thing, but if you find any safe-to-block wakelock let us know!
Q - When is the new version/fix/graphic coming?
A - Do not ask for an ETA. We do this for free, without any ads in the app nor donation packages, we don't even put a price on our app. We all have jobs, university and a private life to manage, we don't have superpowers, so managing all of this takes time. Our free time is pretty short, but we usually put at least half of it on the developing of the app. Be patient and do not harass the team nor the telegram group.
Q - Your app killed [insert any feature here] in my phone!
A - Everything is done by user input, the app by itself (even with the core mod installed) doesn't do anything but reading which wakelock the system is calling. Unless you blocked something we didn't suggest you do to this problem and our app are totally unrelated.
Q - Your app is killing my battery life! WTF!
A - By itself, the app doesn't do anything even with the core mod installed. Keep WakeBlock whitelisted in every hybernation app (like Greenify) but the basic Android Optimization. If the battery drain has increased, double check what you blocked, that might be the reason!
Q - I just updated and it doesn't see the Core Mod!
A - It's a known bug. Check if the app kept all permission (Both root privileges and Storage permission) and simply reboot your phone. It will magically start to see it again! SIDE NOTE: you don't need to reinstall the Core Mod every time you update the app!
Q - How can i uninstall the app?
A - First of all, we are sad that you want to leave us. If you didn't install the Core Mod, or it failed in any way, you just need to delete the app and everything is gone! If you did install successfully the Core Mod, check the WakeBlock backup folder (/sdcard/WakeBlock/Backups). You will find a bunch of different folders with different dates and times. Pick the most recent one and look inside. Here, you will have one of two cases:
CASE 1: FILES = services.odex & and services.vdex | ODEXED ROM
In this case, boot into your custom recovery of choice (TWRP for example, you can't do it from a root explorer) and mount your /system partition. Now check both /system/framework/oat/arm and /system/framework/oat/arm64 for a service.odex and a service.vdex. Here, COPY (and DO NOT MOVE) the files from the backup and paste them to replace the files in your system (one of the two folders above). Now delete the app and you're now WakeBlock-free!
CASE 2: FILE = services.jar | DEODEXED ROM
In this case, boot into your custom recovery of choice (TWRP for example, you can't do it from a root explorer) and mount your /system partition. Here, COPY (and DO NOT MOVE) the file from the backup and paste it to replace the file in your system (in this case /system/framework). Now delete the app and you're now WakeBlock-free!
Q - YOUR APP DOESN'T WORK, WHY?
A - It works. We tested it (and we keep testing it) many times before committing an update! Double check permissons and give it a reboot, usually fixes most of the "doesn't work" problems.
Q - I found a bug! How can i report it?
A - First of all, check on the Telegram Group if anyone else had your problem, both by first searching and then asking directly. If no one can help you on the spot, send a ticket on the @wakeBlockSupportBot. It will ask for a logcat, so make sure you make one while you encounter the problem. DO NOT CONTACT ANYONE OF THE TEAM UNLESS EXPLICITLY ASKED TO.
Q - How do i take a logcat?
A - First of all, make sure that you have the needed Platform Tools. Due to the fact that the app reboots, it's better if you take it with a pc rathern than with an app. Plug the phone into your PC, you start the cmd.exe as administrator (or, if you use Linux, you need to open the terminal with root privileges) and run the command "adb shell", now the console will show the internal console of the phone. From there, run "su", a prompt will appear to your phone to ask for root permission. Approve it, then run "cd /sdcard/Download". Afterwards, run "logcat >> log.txt" (Nothing will appear on screen because it's redirecting every output to the log file). Now start the patch. When it gives the error (or after it reboots), close the app, click "Ctrl + C" to stop the logcat. Then, from the phone, send us the log.txt (you will find it in your Download folder).
Q - Wow! You guys are awesome!
A - Thank you!
TO-DO LIST
- Alarms. Yeah.
- Fixing problems related to some Samsung devices and Pixel devices
- Import/Export system for the blocked Wakelock
- Inserting the FAQ and the suggested wakelock-to-block list into the actual app
- Adding the feature to change the block time without unblocking the wakelock
- Various fixes and improvements
WANT TO INTEGRATE WAKEBLOCK IN YOUR ROM?
We decided to release the core part of the mod to let ROM developers integrate it in their own source code.
Here is the patch for you to simply drag on whichever version of android (should work on 7.x (maybe 6.x?)) and whichever device/ROM you want.
The only things we ask for are (that's not a legal license, but it can make us REALLY upset if you don't do that) :
- You shall credit @GioBozza for the mod by linking this thread in your ROM post (c'mon, don't write it in the bottom of the post, with size 1!)
- You may include this code to any non-commercial work (you can still get donations, we're cool with those!)
- You can not sell this code or get donations by the code of this mod alone
- You may include the free version of the apk in your ROM (in the future we may release a paid version or an unlock app. Of course, that can not be included.)
- You should redirect users here for support about the mod or the app itself
- You should have fun and save your battery
- You may need to drink some fruit juice afterwards - have that ready!
WHOOP, WHOOP - DOWNLOAD:
v0 Templates - platform/frameworks/base repository.
https://github.com/GiovanniBozzano/wakeblock
REMEMBER: the app takes no privileges at all to manage wakelocks. The ROM can even be without root!
Take note that we will update the "core" (android framework) part of the mod, from time to time. It is versioned, so you can keep track of what happened.
Cheers!
Thank you. Seems promising

Are you on rooted stock 7.1.1? We tested on that, and well... it works. Just needs a reboot after app install and it will continue to work across reboots.

I'm on resurrection remix 7.1.1 and flash kernel. I guess it isn't supported on this yet but it is only alpha so no worries if I can't get it to work.

*** HAVE A BACKUP READY FIRST ****
Try this:
- Download the odex file here (it's the same that you find in the archive, if you want to save data, extract the flashable archive)
- Move the file (with any file browser with root support) to /system/framework/oat/arm64 and replace if asked
- The phone (could) instantly reboot. If not, check if the permissions are rw-r--r-- (644)
- Reboot
It says unbound after I rebooted

Well. It means your rom is not odexed.
You can try by creating those folders and put that file there. Can't guarantee btw

Hopefully you find something. Is it because some roms are aosp and some are odex or something? I'm confused about what the difference is and why it makes this mod not work.

Odexing is the way Android now uses to optimize code and generate .oat or .odex machine code files from .dex smali files.
Some ROMs are deodexed: this means all applications run on .dex files and sometimes even system modules (and that's your case).
Currently the mod is tied to the .odex file, but I'm going to support the deodexed version as well.

did you Wipe and Format Data ?
Code:
Installing LineageOS from recovery
Wipe
Now tap Format Data and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption as well as delete all files stored on the internal storage.
Return to the previous menu and tap Advanced Wipe.
Select the Cache and System partitions to be wiped and then Swipe to Wipe.

For some reasons, the /system partition is resized from ~2.5GB to ~1.5GB after install, so not even the nano-gapps fit (insufficient space).
The /system partition can be "resized" back to 2.5GB via TWRP (you have to do it twice(!) to see the result), but I think, this shouldn't be hard to fix...

After updating to "lineage-16.0-20190513-nightly-kipper", the /system partition was against decreased to ~ 1.5GB and had to be increased to 2.5GB from TWRP!

Wifi-direct casting does not work at all in 16.0 for most legacy devices. You can still cast to Chromecast devices but that's about it. Unfortunately I don't see this getting fixed at all as the back end for WFD changed quite a bit in P and only newer devices (with at least stock O blobs) have been able to get this working.

Hi,
have the same problem on my Wileyfox Storm (arm64-v8a) with Pie (OS only - no other apps installed jet) I installed.
I have testet every up to now available pie version for Storm.
Magsik v19.1 with Magisk Manager v7.1.2 (also tried v18.1 and v7.1.1)
Riru core 18 (also tried v10, v11, 15, 16)
EDXposed v4.1.2 (also tried v3.1.2, v3.1.7 and v2.9.6)
EdXposedInstaller_v2.2.4 (also tried some other Versions)
I also tried different Lineage Pie versions.
The Problem: immediatly after the boot is finished the ui becomes black and freezes completly.
For a second I could see the message Smartphone ist starting, but then it becomes black screen.
About very 5 seconds the screen flashes very short the status bar and becomes black again - seems to be a loop.
one Time, after wiping all partitions and installing lineage from scratch Xposed seems to be running fine,
but after the first boot I have the same problem.
In all cases - after removing EDXposed via TWRP Pie works fine again, but I need Xposed.
Please anybody can help?
Thanks

This doesn't work for me. I'm on TWRP 3.2.1.0 and whenever I let /system be resized, nothing changes.
The image has been installed by ADB Sideload. I also have rebooted the device to recovery multiple times, but the resize-operation doesn't show any results.
