Default Ubuntu on the Tab 2

Ok, this thread can be moved if needed

Amung being cheep and useable, ive got a running vnc displaying ubuntu for android.



And thought it would be a good show for what $250 can get u.





I thought an inprovement is needed, so instead ov booting up the tower, i decided to copy a apktool,smali,baksmali, over to a shared folder ran a script and an apk was decompiled.



Now my problem is i cant get the file to build due to lack of a aapt file, and google isnt much help right now.
Hopefully by the end of this well be able to build roms straight from the tab

So would any one have a direction to pointfor the proper lib and ini.d files
I exited out quickly and the image was running, thus resulting in the absence of mine

I do believe that the linux is running ON the tablet. I've done this before on my other tablet. It runs locally and you have to remote into it.

True, its easy to do, but i was focusing on the fact that apktool ran and decompiled an apk

The bad part is i cant get aapt to run when i build.....

So close yet so far..

Love this ability thanks to Ubuntu for Android and all those working on it. But just still waiting for wine or any window emulators for ARM devices, because it runs supper smooth so far.
