Interesting I seem to have a similar issue, i've been using the same charger for years and i thought the charging cable had pulled loose and switched to an ipad charger last week today i found it flat and got the green orange pattern as reported. I eventually found plugged into my mac it stayed...

in trouble again earlier this evening it decided to do something strange with the desktop. I have access to the pull down menu's at the top but the desktop has turned black and only the left triangle is showing up the circle and square are missing meaning i can't do much with it. I guess i can...

I am back up and running using these files sdcard-reco-ovation.img.xz twrp-3.0.1-0-ovation.zip lnos_ovation-ota-NMF26Q.170104.zip open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170216.zip I was looking at googles guide to 7.1 and it says you can run 2 apps side by side. I found a post from 2015 which said you had...

Hi, I had the battery go totally flat on my nook hd+ and i ended up getting it back up with no apps, so i flashed a gaaps package but it still didn't get me the play store so i ended up flashing a full gaaps package it said system needed to be cleared so i did that and installed the full gaap...

seems to work on coreprime with kingroot but i got into setings and seems i break a few things. was looking at word processing and the like on android but struggling to find a good ui to cast will keep playing till i find something i like cheers thank you for the hard work

Still waiting for it here in Ireland, there are 2 issues with getting the update, first one is that you need to be network unlocked to side load it,from what I have read. My provider will unlock after 6 months if i have spent 127 euro in credit on the phone. Most places seem to want 40 euro to...

rooted with kingroot.apk ver 4.0.0 on sm-g360f but seem unable to upgrade su binary the rootcheck says it works anyway but titaniumbackup recommends the supersu binary that doesnt work...

Somewhere in this thread I think I? posted something for resizing the disk image probably with gparted. Your limited on space on the internal flash but 3gb is pretty much reasonable for ubuntu You could delete the android image and go pure ubuntu. I just had to do that as my tablet got sat...

caress the screen The g9 screen isn't the best, being plastic and not glass like many other tablets and for a long time i've been plagued by ghost presses. I was reading a review of the g9 and surprisingly I found the solution. If you press the screen buttons it causes the screen to distort...

GPS isn't configured, no driver compiled. There is a pretty good range of software ported to ubuntu arm. You can dualboot, with 4.07 android and 12.04 ubuntu. Stability on julies version is pretty good, you need to install xfce on it though.

http://www.necopost.com/2012/06/how-to-use-google-chrome-like-chrome-os.html I thought this might make an interesting twist using ubuntu to get a chrome os like experience. If nothing else it is a quick and easy way to get a minimal desktop.

Start with Xsetwacom, "xsetwacom is a commandline utility to change wacom driver settings at runtime." so thats a utility for setting wacom driver options. Can we use a wacom driver ? maybe I never tried (but I wouldn't be disappointed if it failed to work). The whole screen is one big...

no switched to julies and installed XFCE on top. Just installed Siemens Logo plc programming IDE on the Archos G9 it's Java based and they supply for Windows, Mac and Linux (x86) the JRE that the installer sets up doesn't work but the open-jre for ubuntu does :) Probably first person to do that...

strange that black or backlight off? anyway see pg 24 touch.tar.gz and in the obj directory you can find the driver which i compiled on my 101 using the .21 release before uploading it Would you believe I had my g9 101 plugged in and it didnt charge :( #!/bin/sh echo 145 >...

interesting way they are doing it by using mtev as the default driver for what they find and evdev for keyboard mouse , it's the complete opposite of what we have in ubuntu. where evdev tries to drive everything and we specifically tell the system to use mtdev to drive the touchscreen. I've...

with the wifi issue from the basykom plasma installation instructions mkdir -p $HOME/archos_backup cd $HOME/archos_backup #(or somewhere else) cp /mnt/tablet/misc/wifi/ti-connectivity/wl1271-nvs.bin . tar czf tablet-backup.tgz /mnt/tablet umount /mnt/tablet Install the new...

bother ... Well stevemp 's XFCE runs well not noticed any hangs but... Sudo Aptitude upgrade picks up around 400 packages to upgrade and libc6 and libc6.dev finish up broken. perl seems to have complaints and doc-base man.db and tzdata also fail to install (along with all the rest) which is a...

Are you using stevemp's xubuntu image? I've downloaded this a couple of times but each time there has been a crc error probably due to my lousy 3g connection. I had a play with the plasma-active basycom image and that is buggy and doesn't dualboot as it needs a different zimage it is quite...

I've decided to give plasma active a spin due to the ui being more touch friendly, while it is possible to use ubuntu desktop (when it doesnt randomly freeze) I think it is probably ultimately going to be a disappointment. There is something not quite right with the multiboot as is too, i often...

Hi i'm switching to dualboot from microsd card and i need to uninstall this dual boot i figure if i flash the android zimage and initramfs.cpio.lzo with the versions from the rooted android image i am using my system should be stock enough to get the plasma linux booting from the microsd card. I...

an interesting library https://github.com/stskeeps/libhybris https://plus.google.com/113386402913695079840/posts/9LF6atjc455 explains "Practically, if you know what libdl is, this is a libdl-API-like implementation that happens to be able to load Android libraries, and overrides some symbols...

There is a fair way to go if you see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log you will see there is no driver for compass accelerometer, or Gps, bluetooth seems to work to an extent but I just cannot get my bluetooth keyboard to pair with it. The Graphics driver situation is a mess there are 4 drivers possible...

Tweaking the desktop and browser The chromium browser has a hidden menu which enables touch within the browser (there is also a touch scrolling extension which can be installed) 1. From Google Chrome, type chrome://flags in the address bar, then press Enter. 2. Scroll down to the Touch...

working touch screen Thanks to user comphuter :) we have a working touchscreen driver If you have been following you probably have multitouch working but only as a mouse <quote> http://oe-lite.org/redmine/projects/...f86-input-mtev Download the following: *) xorg-x11-drv-mtev-0.1.13.tar.gz...

A working mouse :( it does work thou spent some time poking around in the image file in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old at the end of the file we have [ 26.744] (II) config/udev: Adding input device ARCHOS-TWL6040 Headset Jack (/dev/input/event4) [ 26.745] (II) No input driver specified...

Been having fun and games with ssh and the archos there are two users root and ubuntu so ssh [email protected] -X (where ever your tablet is on your lan) password ubuntu (for root it is root) gets you logged into your tablet. launching something like gimp or gedit will open a window on your...

julie 131 posted a link on 3rd of august with a 4.06 kernel (zimage) this i think maybe from 0.21 Any way i have a 4.07deodexed and 0.22 ubuntu and this is the first kernel which boots both images, while android seems ok with this ubuntu seems to have lost it's mouse pointer :( which was...

broken download The kernel_407.zip download links are broken tried everything I can and all i get are lousy ads from 2 shared hope you can find an alternative please.

answer it is http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=3288 this works well as mouse and keyboard i'm usin it with ubuntu and a netbook with a mini bluetooth dongle.

Ok heres an idea which might not fly but here goes. i was thinking of getting a wireless keyboard for my netbook then something said well for a small one your better off going with bluetooth and watched a video for logitech denovo mini bluetooth keyboard. Then i thought my universal is about...

update Problem number one no working skype on wm6.1 ranju's 7.6 Fring also only see's wifi - i don't quite see fring as a solution anyway since it'd be part of data plan and not free skype. looks like i need a new rom

Hi I have an unlocked universal and have just bought a 3 skype phone on pay as you go. It was 40 for the phone and 10 for credit. (car phone warehouse) Thing is my universal is unlocked so would i be able to use the 5000 minutes free skype talk time and 10,000 skype texts with my universal ...

Hi I've got an unlocked t-mobile universal and my contracts coming to an end, so i am looking to see whats available for mobile broadband and its all a bit confusing. The big issue has to be whats allowed by the operators, T-mobile seems to block IM and skype Three looks interesting The pay...

I have been using wm6 for a fair while, i think an early j wrights version. I now look for a version which supports tethering either by usb or bluetooth preferably usb since it means the phone is being charged as its being used. Even with an extended battery power consumption is high. I...

qtopia no joy yet i enabled the options on log.conf but there wasnt much in the way of a log wtmp.log Qtopia seems to default to America/newyork perhaps this is why it cant find an operator in the UK. sorry i'm not much use is there another logfile?

less bugs :) qtopia Thanks to goxboxlives, follow up post I was able to get into qtopia. using the power button i shutdown qtopia and logged in as root and edited nano /etc/init.d/qpe.sh easy to find the two lines in use # them out and disable the phone side. and activate the two lines...

bugged :( The Open Moko image is looking good but I couldn't find a Shell and ended up having to use the stylus to reset. It's great it has access to the wince side of the card, I was able to make a playlist and play some MP3's I have. The Qtopia image got stuck it booted up locked and would...

MP3 tomtom on bluetooth mono headset on universal wm6 Hi I downloaded the original rom at the start of this thread and its working well. As I had a hands free mono bluetooth headset motorola h700 i decided to see if i could get it working for mp3's movies ect...

That sounds a little odd I run ubuntu linux I connect my card reader I plug in my SD Card Ubuntu reads my SD Card but hey I didn't pay anything for ubuntu but it comes with the distro presumably there is a driver for it but licenced? Isn't a driver pretty much the implimentation of a protocol...

vmware for development maybe? Just a thought, would it be worth putting together a vmware image of a development environment for this project. There are a number of advantages to this. since vmware player is free and available for both linux and windows platforms (probably useful on OSX86...

If you take a look at the Lcd screen on a universal there are connectors around the corners of the screen (probably find a pic on ebay). My universal had a problem with a blue tint on the screen but with a squeeze near the upper left of the screen i heard a click and the problem went away...

Hi I have my universal on contract with t-mobile i have the flext 25 which gives me £60 worth of calls included on an 18 month contract but only to the uk; I was bitching some with an irish friend of mine how he got cheap calls to the uk but I had to pay so i had a look on google and found this...

installing tools and building kernel on ubuntu I thought it might be useful to sum up the steps to compiling your own kernel for the universal on ubuntu dapper drake. infact it should be copy and paste following these instructions. download the tool chain from here...

setting up and installing the tool chain I tried to follow the instructions at http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/UniversalKernel installed cvs and checked out the source however the toolchain just isnt working out for me. the toolchain linked to on this page doesnt appear to have...

i've installed both versions from there, I thought i had them both working but the touch screen isn't working when i boot either of them. have i done something wrong? any suggestions or more info required.

The tomtom bluetooth gps is sirf III, Seems to get a good signal most of the time. you would think getting two bluetooth devices to pair together, location would be fairly unimportant. However with the tomtom unless its got a fix it doesn't want to play. once you 'grok' the device its ok, but...

How can anything this good be this bad? You can buy TomTom navigator5 for pda for £75 at PC World less on the Net for this you get a 128meg sd card with tomtom on and a wireless bluetooth reciever and a Car charger. You don't get a Mains charger but I found a USB hub Psu or my old toshiba pda...

I just seem to have developed this issue I booted the 16 version of opie and when I came out to windows agai h i noticed a very strange thing some screens particularly white ones are showing a kind of pale blue tearing at random places on the screen it varys from nothing to severe. I hope I...

Any reason I can't use archive manager in ubuntu to unpack opie and gpe and then copy them into thier respective partitions? using my sdcard reader do i use the harat version i got for .12 version? and default.txt its the same ? you can get ext3 file sysyem for windows just google ext3 and...
