unzip chroot.zip into /sdcard/bt5/ on your phone

(I can't give you the bt5.img I have, it already has a bunch of my stuff in it, just download the bt5.img here, from msullivans post, and take just the bt5.img and put it in your /sdcard/bt5/ folder with that you unzipped earlier.

You should have these files in /sdcard/bt5
bt.sh
mountonly
unionfs
fsrw
bt5.img

Once your files match what's shown above open terminal and:
gain root access for terminal

Code:

su

run the script from the directory

Code:

sh /sdcard/bt5/bt.sh

or change to the dir /sdcard/bt5

Code:

cd /sdcard/bt5

and run sh bt.sh

Code:

sh bt.sh

You should see it start up, and you'll be prompted to start VNC. type Y, for yes, enter

Because our phones are awesome, we want 1280X800 on our images. So, after you have answered yes to starting VNC, we need to edit /usr/bin/startvnc file.

Code:

vi /usr/bin/startvnc

change the last line to (it should say something like vncserver -geometry 800X480)
vncserver -geometry 1280x800

At this point the easy way is restart your phone, and start up bt5 again.

then go to VNC

edit /usr/bin/startvnc (in chroot) to vncserver -geometry 1280x800

restart phone, run bt.sh; sh /sdcard/bt5/bt.sh, and start up VNC

It's awesome, and works great with the BT mouse/keyboard, and the extra resolution makes it feel better than the old OQO's

. it's awesome

also, if you want ubuntu, download the ARM ubuntu.img on XDA (there are everywhere) and just drop it in the folder, rename it to bt.img. (easy way) or change the bt.sh to reflect ubuntu.img everywhere it says bt.img

DanMc85 · Feb 22, 2012

very interested in this... is this BT5 regular or or is this the version 5 R1 release?

Mine is regular bt5, not sure what the images i linked to are. My image is a year old and was used on my atrix too. But i see no reason a new image would'nt work. I'll try to post an image tonight

adamtrace · Feb 25, 2012

edounn · Feb 26, 2012

do you have busybox installed? if not, do that. if so, try running it twice.

looks like it doesn't like your loop back for some reason
type in your terminal:
ls -l /dev/block | grep loop

you'll get a result back that shows loop## maybe try on of those instead of loop255

Willanhanyard · Mar 8, 2012

Yep, I am getting the same error as dan.expo

dan.expo · Mar 9, 2012

Ya it looks like I only have loop 1-7 so I guess I need to edit the script to one of those?

make sure you have losetup -d/dev/block/looop255 in your script.

Anyone fix error yet?

it works fine on mine and my buddies. I'll upload the script I have once more. The ones having problems? have you flashed anything? Both the ones I have seen personally working, mine and my buddies, both are stock, rooted, normal stuff.

/mnt/sdcard/bt5 # cat bt.sh

Code:

if [ -b /dev/block/loop255 ]; then
	echo "Loop device exists"
else
	busybox mknod /dev/block/loop255 b 7 255

I have the overclock kernel and stock rogers rom. I managed to get the universal phone bt5 script working without issue (not optimized for the note mind you).

i think i changed something, and uploaded the normal one, just change the vnc file as per the instructions on the main post, and it'll be ready to go.

check your mount

type mount and look for /dev/block/mmcblk0pXX /system something like that where XX is the number you need to change in the script file.
should look somethinig like this

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p24 /system

24 depending on what you see in your file system.

i'm on Tmobile Galaxy Note. and i was able to use this script by changing that
