A friend of mine has a Suamsung Galaxy S II from Boost Mobile. It has been randomly rebooting on him. I offered some assistance, though I am not an expert (perhaps slightly beyond a novice). I am going over to his house in a few hours to pull the last kernel message and to run ADB to and...

How to add glibc stack to Android, bringing out the Penguin within. Important note: I am still working out the kinks, learning, etc. This is not ment to be a daily use rom, esspecially what I put up for downloading and testing. Consider them teasers to get you to build your own. Downloads...

I just successfully built a kernel with my phone over nfs (wifi). I used gcc-armhf or rather to be specific, when it complained I set 'CROSS_COMPILER=/usr/bin/', cleaned, and retried. Everything seems to have went fine, and as expected I have the zImage in arch/arm/boot and the modules are...

I am compiling a kernel on my phone right now using gcc for armhf (if not its armel), so my question is: Do I need to us an arm-abi toolchain or what ever? I ask becasue this is not cross compiling, I have the source on my pc and is served via NFS. I have a glibc stack with Android and I just...

I have been having issues with the Paranoid Networking feature added to the Linux Kernel preventing some of my programs from creating sockets. Appearently the process must be of a certain group id, either one of the AID_INET or AID_BT groups in the 3000's range I believe. I was cgreping through...

I am fairly new to the game so this might have been solved before or maybe a project somewhere is already working on it, but I'll ask anyways... I want to build a version of Android that runs on glibc but also has the Android specific libs to run it's framework, system services, dalvik, etc...

A little background info: I got SL4A and Py4A and then ran the standalone script to run python from the command line over adb or ssh, but the Android api's wouldn't work. Cause, SL4A server needs to be running and python needs to be able to send info to the server via AP_PORT and AP_HOST with...

I was wondering if it is possible to build/compile the Android OS against embedded glibc instead of bionic? Has it been done? What would some forseeable problems be, as in, would much Android code need to be modified to utilize glibc properly , and would existing proprietary firmware bug out...

Ok, so if your even reading this like "what in the world?" I wouldn't blame you, that just means you understood the question the way I meant it. I have a Linux system running side by side on Android (I'd imagine this might be possible in a chroot as well), anyways I am installing...

I have built and slightly tweeked CM 10.1 but to be honest, it does drain that battery quite a bit and sometimes it freezes in landscape mode. So I sync'ed up the source for the AOSP and then I realized that I needed binaries and I don't have the stock ROM to extract them from. Are these...

I have a Linux distro running side by side with Android fairely well, with the exception of a handfull of services in /etc/init.d such as postgresql and nfs-common. I have compiled ruby1.9.3 on my phone, and postgresql, ruby worked great, postgres still has the usuall permission denied failure...

I have been going through the cm10.1 source all day looking for where it mounts my external sdcard (not the emulated external/internal "0" dirs) I tried grep'ing a few thing across the source tree "/mnt/fuse/sdcard", stuff like that and havent found anything, I found a "sdcard.c" next to a...

After much frustration with getting things to work on Ubuntu, I switched back to Kali Linux and attempted the same procedure described here ... http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_d2spr ... as well as for Ubuntu here ...http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html .... When a step for...

Well the script should be working, it is 'ettin.sh' now. To get VNC to work on separate device just change 'eth0' to 'wlan0' or whatever other interface you know how to configure, like usb maybe, in the 'init.sh' script that resides in ~/ on the images you can download from...

Double post

I want to compile several pentesting tools such as nmap, aircrack-ng, openVAS, tcpdump, etc, etc on my phone using the gnu gcc compiler i got from g.play. I also need to compile python, ruby, lua, and perl on my phone. I want to do this so that it is all linked with the ROM. The chroot env...

Updated. Disclaimer, I am not resposible for anything you do, and what works for me may not work for you. To start I am running Cyanogenmod 10 on a Galaxy s III sprint, rooted, busybox, and whatever else you may need. First :Anything being done on the PC is being done on Kali Linux: Create a...

Well I've been working on getting the Kali Linux toolkit to run on Android without a chroot and I did it, just gotta mount all the subfiletree's or whatever to where they belong in Androids root dir ,"/" (NOT "/root") and set up the paths in the enviroment a it seems to be working. I spent way...

I have python working on ADB from the command line, I wasn't happy about having to develop with that little virtual keyboard so I made some changes and wrote a short shell script to launch python after setting up some variables. What I did exactly: 1) I created a blank.img file on my pc and...

I was wondering if I could mount an empty.img file so that I could add executable into it and chmod 777 them or what ever the number is maybe 666. Then I would add the location to my $PATH variable in the "/system/etc/mkshrc" file so I could execute those programs from any directory. What say...

First of all let me start off by admitting that I am crazy and a noob programmer so maybe I don't understand the problem and am asking a rediculus question. I was wondering if there was any way of converting C/C++ source into python that could be run on Android. Mostly command line stuff that...
