Hi Guys,
I'm trying to cure a dead Google Sooner EXCA300, the problem is the same as this post,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5712731
the reason cause it dead is I erase System Data and User Data on the phone, because is too slow.
I tried to connect to Ubuntu 9.10, and failed before.
and today I tried to start the phone with Power button + Home button, and now I can use linux commands, and already CD to the Storage Card, So can anyone help me to upload the list files, appreciate.
I'm a Windows Mobile user and just turned to Android, someone help me.

Hey Guys, that's what I tried to connect to Ubuntu.
I tried to connect Sonner on Ubuntu 9.10, command as following, and new problem is my Ubuntu can detect Sonner as 18d1:d00d, and when I run run ./adb devices, nothing listed, and sure that when I typed run ./adb shell, it said no devices found.
■Install Ubuntu Ubuntu
■The version of Ubuntu shouldn't matter. However, our Dev enviornment was tested with Ubuntu 8.10 Server
■Once Ubuntu is installed with the default settings we'll need to edit some system settings to allow the OS to talk with the Sooner Mobile Device.
■touch /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules
■Add the line SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666" where 18d1 is the item listed under lsusb
■chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules
■Run this as root /etc/init.d/udev restart
■Java for Development
■apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
■apt-get install sun-java6-bin
■sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun
■Type java -version and javac -version
■It should state Java(TM). The output for javac will just list the version number.
■The Ubuntu OS should now be able to detect the device
■Plug the phone into the computer.
■Type lsusb
■Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
■Bus 001 Device 012: ID 18d1:deed
■Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0e0f:0002
■Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
■The device ID of 18d1 is the HTC Sooner Device
■Install the Google Android SDK
■From the Android SDK installation directory i.e. /android_sdk_linux_m3-rc22a/tools run ./adb devices
■It should list something similar to
1 53590a1587035cc9 device 0
■To access the Sooner Phone type ./adb shell
my sooner has the same problem like you,hope you can solve it

May I ask what you are trying to do with your Sooner? I am trying to modify Sooner to run modern Eclair Android. I would appreciate if you know of any projects working on that and can contribute some information.

Hello, sorry for necroposting but this is really important. Can you dump the entire phone, as it contains the first ever build of Android known to man. Please contact me via your preferred method, and I’ll give you my usernames.

Please read this before start asking questions
1.Android is in testing development.
2.Is not working fully.
3.You can't install Android in your phone.
4.You can run Android in your phone with Haret and see how it look but:
5.There are no working wifi, bluetooth,phone calls, battery, usb conection, ac charger connection and many other things....
6.All drivers and kernel are still under construction.
7.Now you know that Android is not working fully in our phone.
8.If you still want help and test build that is OK.
Now to run Android properly in your phone !
1.Download any of the builds we have around here.
2.Do backup on your sdcard or if you have additional one use this one.
3.Extract the file with android in your sdcard.
4. Check all the files are inside (sdcard/Android/AndroidApps"folder", media"folder",root"folder",clrcad"file",rootfs"fil e",startup"file",system"file",zImage"file",initrd" file")
5. If you want you can take everything from Android folder and pest it in root of the sdcard but you have to change default text (set cmdline"rel_path=Android change to set cmdline"rel_path=" or set cmdline"rel_path=sdcard") tri with one if is not working try with the other one. I thing the best is leave all files and folder in default Android folder and just copy this folder to your sdcard.
6.Check your zImage and Startup is for Toshidroid :OP (TG01).
7.First RUN haret without CLRCAD.
8.It take no more than10 min to run for the first time.
9. If it take more time RESTART the phone by pressing the POWER BUTTON for 10/20 sec it will restart and back to windows.
11.Try to do the same one more time.
12.If it still not booting to Android and you receive any error messages. Check your sdcard if there is space left in it. Check error message if it say that it can find some file or it can't create a data.
13. Delete everything from your sdcard and format it to fat32.
14.Start from the beginning.
15. If it still not booting to Android then check if you have all files and all set how it has to be.
16. Don't forget you can broke your phone. And we are not responsible for any damage you cause to your phone.
17.It is all up to you.
19. If I forget something sorry about just ask there are other memebers who will try to help you if they can.
20. Sorry for my English mistakes. I'm trying to fix them. :OP
Thanks to all people who try their best to make that possible: Markinus, Arash18k,Bally3,Endrix,Nyl,Arnookie and all other.

The android screen (1.5 cupcake) on Tosh TG01 was taken from intomobile.com
There is no android for HD2 or Acer F1/s200 (and these phones have bigger community) so I don't think someone here will run android on TG01 until it comes for one of these two mentioned above...
you are right..
however I have googled and found these.
http://htcandroid.xland.cz/
http://xdandroid.southcape.org/
I am not into programing but it might give some head start to who want to make it happpen..
I don't know how to go about porting android to TG01, but I'm looking into it... don't know if it will go anywhere but what the hell, it's worth a try.
Source code for the Acer Liquid and the Xperia X10, two Snapdragon phones with both Kernel Source code available

Don't know much about Android. But I think Haret is only a bootloader. You still need the Android files to boot.

Yep Haret kills the WinMo kernel to boot another one, i've got the Xperia X10 and Acer Liquid Kernels source code, so i'm going to build them just to see how far it will go and hopefully create a starting point for Android on TG01
Just to keep you updated, i'm not getting anyware for the moment, but i'm not giving up, if anyone has got any info on building a linux kernel for snapdragon please post it
Google Nexus one, acer liquid and many other devices have Snapdragon and Android.
If it's found some info about linux kernel on them, it would be a good starting point, don't you think?
EDIT: I've just google a little and found this:
NEXUS ONE KERNEL POSTED
Cyanogen has developed a web for developing nexus one kernel. So, maybe, you can find something there.
Here you can find a kernel for Nexus One
And here you can find the kernel source for the Acer Liquid

Yep, i've installed the 10.04, and it's pretty cool, on my dell precision m6500, i had a probleme getting the wifi working but other than that it runs like a charm
Has anyone got any idea on how to find the 'RAMADDR' and 'RAMSIZE' for haret ?
these are for HTC diamond witch has 192 mb ram
set RAMSIZE 0x7800000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
Yeah but it is specific to every phone... so I either somebody already know them, or I need a way to find them..
Hi
It's a thread which collects Ubuntu stuff for SGS2 and includes some of my mods.
The content is from or based on fire314's, JDouce's and zacthespack's work. And their work is based on other people's work, so thanks everybody
Why is it better, than the sources I used?
-it's up to date
-works
-smallest download size
-less space required on sd/internal storage
-very detailed instructions
Why to use Ubuntu on an Android phone?
Why to overclock?! Just because we can do it To show off
And you can use Chromium browser to browse the web, you can edit documents in Open/Libre Office, etc.

Download
I recommend this Lubuntu img, made by zacthespack, edited by me.
It's less than 500MB to download, 1800MB img file size on the phone, and sports LXDE (leightweight desktop):
Filehosting.org
Ubuntu One
Dropbox
Google docs
It is the necessery script to run Ununtu/Lubuntu, made by fire314:
ubi.sh
Ubuntu One
Dropbox
It is an Ubuntu img (Gnome desktop), made by JDouce, modded by me.
It's almost 1GB to download and 2,5 or 3GB (I don't remember) on the phone:
Depostie Files
Fileserve
Then, there is the one made by JDouce without any mod.
Almost 1,5GB to download in 2 parts, and 3,5GB (as I remember) on the phone:
Part 1
Part 2
The original from zacthespack:
Link to he's thread
He works on it, and uploads new versions, so no need to place a link for the file itself.
There are 2 versions now:
Ubuntu - 1,5GB to download and 3,5GB on phone
Lubuntu - 500MB to download and 2,5GB on phone
Instructions:
1. Choose one of the images (will add more later) and download it, and get the script aswell
2. Unzip ubuntu.img and copy it and ubi.sh to your sdcard or internal storage, both files to the same folder
3. Open a terminal emulator and type:
su
Accept root permission request if appears, then type:
cd (name of the place where the files are. Example: cd /sdcard)
You can check if the files are there by typing „ls”. If everything is fine, than type:
sh ubi.sh
like this:
and if everything is fine you get this:
4.Open a VNC client and fill out the following
password: ubuntu
address: localhost
port: 5900
set colors to 24bit
5. Hit Connect button
6. Now you should set the "mouse"
touch Menu button
Input mode
Touchpad
Turning it off:
In the VNC client:
touch Menu button
Disconnect
In the terminal emulator:
touch Menu button
Close window
accept it
You can add, delete programs in Synaptic.
If you want to start Lubuntu/Ubuntu anytime, just do the 3rd and 4th steps ; )
I didn't do much. I just made some small changes. All the credits go to zacthespack, JDouce and fire314.
I know, that JDouce has a thread, but he doesn't do much nowadays. He edited the OP more than 5 months ago. And I think it's such a fun, that it deserves some more attention.
Troubleshooting:
If it doesn't start after step 4, or your phone reboots after step 3:
change kernel!
Siyah 2.6.8 changelog:
-fixed the bug which prevented using ubuntu and was causing some random reboots...
so earlier versions doesn't work
If it starts, but the mouse pointer doesn't move:
check the step 6 in the OP
If you can't read or mount the sdcard/internal storeage after turning Ubuntu off:
reboot
Download links are up!
Let me know which one is the fastest and where would you like to see the next versions uploaded.
And if you have any question or suggestion, don't hold it back
Unbuntu One link is a ~20 min DL. Dropbox is ~5 min.

I am looking for a way to get Asus Transformer Prime capable of developing Android Apps, so it might not just be funny, but also very useful
I did try to see if I could make my SGS2 dual boot, but it did not work for me so far. And I am not sure I would want this as the phones OS, although it is temping if it can also use one of those Android App players that seems to be in development. I am not sure if they are even trying to target Linux though.
But the possiblities of Linux on Android hardware is.... mindbogging

Yes I know there is Gen.Y DualBOOT out since January, 2010, a bootlauncher application for Windows Mobile. It is not designed to be used with landscape oriented touchscreen devices running Windows (Embedded) CE - as this is the case with many SatNav units. Also, for me, it is not generic enough, ex. drive names where an Android installation is searched for, are hardcoded. Hence I decided to 're-code' this bootloader in MortScript, so that each one can modify the code on the fly, if needed. I named the project 'OSLoader'.

Be aware, 'OSLoader' is only a bootlauncher application, so that you still need to provide a suitable Android on your CE device for yourself.
And, as it is with Gen.Y DualBOOT too, actually 'HaRET' is used to boot Android.
Important Note:
Besides the fact you need to provide a suitable Android on your CE device for yourself - the Android distribution that comes with 'OSLoader' only serves demonstration purposes, it doesn't make any sense to try to get Android running on Windows (Embedded) CE via 'HaRET', if you can't obtain a copy of CE's main display driver as named in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Drivers\MainDisplay, (perhaps using tool 'NDumpCE' by ablbd and renaming this 'ddi.dll' to 'ace_ddi.dll' ) this because 'HaRET' (at least all its current available versions I've used) expects library 'ace_ddi.dll' (a Samsung's main display driver) to be present in device's folder \Windows. Of course 'OSLoader' comes with a 'ace_ddi.dll' replacement...
'OSLoader' is still under development. It may be incomplete, may contain bugs. Please feel free to report any bugs, suggest any improvements.

FAQ:
1. How does HaRET work?
As I understand it, the Android port you privide IS NOT A ROM. Hence you copy the Rootfs, Kernel and HaRet to the SD-card and run it. No flashing at all. HaRET unloads Windows (Embedded) CE and starts Android. The internal storage is mounted under Android as a normal partition. After a soft-reset (warm-boot) it returns to Windows (Embedded) CE automatically. So no flashing and no formatting with different filesystem.
2. What is the correct machine type ID for my device?
Honestly I don't know this. AFAIK a generic machine type isn't defined here. If you don't find a valuable identifier please feel free to register your device with http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/ and then use the machine type ID assigned.
hmm gonna give it a try
Awesome! this will work on all devices with windows ce 6.0?
I've looking for running Android on my Toshiba Journe Touch with windows ce 6.0 but I've never found anyone who port Android to this device so I will try you work!
I would like to have Android, whichever (donut, froyo...) would be better than windows ce

dont most car infotainment systems run windows CE. Seems interesting
Wow, nice! Even though I am not a Windows Mobile user, but it's very nice!

If you mean 'OSLoader' itself, then the answer is YES. If you mean the applied Android distribution, then the answer is I DON'T KNOW.

waarffockrnosjahwbfe!!! I need Android on my device, winCE is useless... I can't use flash player! Do you know any way to port android to this device? lol!
It would be awesome if this worked on the dead Zune HD.

HTH
I have a HTC HD "blackstone", I can use this program? in your opinion what is the best way to turn my Blackstone in an android phone?
'OSLoader' is a bootlauncher, not a bootloader, as this is with 'HaRET' which is called by 'OSLoader' to boot Windows (Embedded) CE and/or Windows Mobile in Android.
If you know of
1. an Android port that is compiled for a HTC HD "blackstone", and
2. the machine type identifier that matches your HTC or at least comes closest to it
then you should be able to run Android on top of Windows Mobile using 'OSLoader', IMHO ...

Can't confirm OSLoader runs flawlessly on your Toshiba G910 (running Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 Professional). Why not simply try it out? OSLoader affects nothing.
Thanks, I will try
My device will not brick because OS Loader works from the SDcard...
The Android version of your app is the 2.2?
Please continue that project

Introduction and Warning:
Asteroid OS is a Free Open Source alternative operating system for smartwatches. It utilizes libhybris to ensure maximum compatibility with the watch. The OS team is currently looking for active contributors to make it grow (more info at the project's webpage: http://asteroidos.org/). The OS is NOT based on Android wear and is currently in an Alpha Phase, has limited functions, applications and customizability so flash at your own risk. The current build is mostly meant for developers rather than end-users, so these images in no way reflect the finished Asteroid OS. I take no responsibility for what happens by the use of this software. By using the method bellow you don't flash Asteroid but rather run it side by side with Android wear. Essentially you place the OS file inside the watch and fastboot into it. This way Android Wear stays installed and you can test Asteroid. Asteroid at its current phase is not meant as a daily OS as it has bugs and issues, one of them being that the bluetooth doesn't work (so you can't pair it with your phone). I simply made a build of the OS, credit goes to the creator and the contributors, I can only provide you with builds, installation instructions and answers on a few questions, nothing more.

Photos and Videos can be found in the project's twitter account (mentioned bellow).
Downloads:
Official prebuilt Asteroid OS image: http://asteroidos.org/install/
Outdated Personal Build of mine (lacks newer build features):
Asteroid Image
Boot Image
Instructions:
1. Make sure you have an ADB installation (Minimal adb and fastboot should do) and your watches' bootloader is unlocked and debugging is enabled from the settings.
2. Download the two files in the download section and place them in the same folder and connect the watch to the computer
3. Open up the command prompt (cmd) and navigate to that folder
4. Issue these commands:
adb push asteroid-image-dory.ext2 /sdcard/linux/rootfs.ext2
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot zImage-dtb-dory.fastboot
5. The watch will reboot into Asteroid OS. Every time you want to boot into asteroid you have to issue the last two commands or else you will boot into android wear normally.
Removal Instructions:
Just open up cmd, connect the watch to the computer and issue this command: adb shell rm "/sdcard/linux/rootfs.ext2"

Mhh will definitely try it out
screenshots/photo ?
Any screenshots or demo videos? Can't find any on Google or the official project site.
Sent from my SM-G900P using XDA Free mobile app
Screenshots, video etc can be found in the Twitter account ( @ asteroidos).
Images?
According to twitter, don't bother trying these images as it takes over three minutes to boot and there are no apps.
I uploaded a video showing Asteroid booting up for anyone interested.
Why would I destroy my perfectly fine watch with absolutely pointless OS, which does nothing, doesn't allow me to get notifications and has no apps?
Why such negativity over something that is pre-alpha? The OP even said, this is more for developers than for end users.
Once a few iterations are out, say when the BT stack is up, and some apps available I'd be keen on checking it out and dual-booting into it. For now, I'll be keeping a watch on it.
Keep fighting the hard fight @CedArctic!
This is definitely great to see. A fully capable linux OS on the watch. Btw OP, does it use Wayland or Mir for the display server since it's built on QT (going off what I know of Ubuntu Touch which uses QT/Mir)?
I downloaded the image but haven't messed with it just yet, the rootfs is on my watch waiting for me to boot it with fastboot. I'm excited to see how this turns out. Any idea on how it will communicate with the mobile device through Bluetooth yet, or is that still in the planning stages as you work on the UI?

Thanks but it's more of kido's fight. He is the original developer of Asteroid OS. I will continue to provide up to date builds until a stable release is out. It is great to see the community interested in such a project

I believe it uses the Mir server. As far as I know the watch will connect via bluetooth. Though I am not the developer of this operating system, that's kido. So don't really know much . For now I just make builds of it.

Ah thanks for the information. I'm really looking forward to seeing this grow, I love watching alternative operating systems for my devices ^_^
Once it has more work done on it, I could see it becoming a pretty neat project.

This isn't a version of Android. It is a Linux based operating system that can run on the G Watch as a (in the future) replacement OS for android. So no, playstore does not work.

Im a tad bit disappointing no one has any replied as where to look or give any input to my problem some of us are not android gurus and so far i have spent 3 solid days trying to find out as much as possible to solve my problem. Anyhow be assured once i do crack this i shell do a complete guide for this for these boards and list all firmware links ect ect
UPDATE SO FAR
So iv been digging about digging around and yet still nothing on the firmware side of things but i have found the board make model which is
SunChip AD-Z05 V4.1 and the device is EL-1851AIO 18.5" screen
I have checked the site for firmware which has come up blank also the seller site of the device its self no firmware there ether but now i have better leads i might (fingers crossed) find it somewhere. I will keep this post updated as i go
anyone who has any idea's to this feel free to comment or message me.

Hello,
i have the same thing like you. But im not a developer. Do you have any update about links to ROM or something? Many thanks.
Don't know if anyone still cares or is tinkering around with this, but I came into possession of a touchscreen display board with the AD-Z05 SoC ARM board.
For everyone's info, the AD-Z05 is made by SunChip and designed to be used by OEMs for various things. If you've ever tried hunting down info about it like I did, you'll find very little documentation about it besides this board overview:

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note the "Update" button, located next to the power jack. This is our key to getting into the recovery environment. I haven't found a consistent method for getting it to work, but what seems to work most of the time is holding down the update button, connecting the power source, pressing the Power On/Off button, then waiting until the default android recovery screen is up (should only take about 10 seconds tops.)
From this point, I'm stumped on what to do. ADB reports that the device is in recovery mode, I can get a basic shell and browse the ROM, even finding some factory test binaries, but that's about it. This wiki deals with the Rockchip CPUs and has some useful utilites, but the RkDevTool reports that my CPU doesn't match whatever ID it's expecting. Trying to reboot into fastboot or this "maskrom" mode freezes the utility. I've tried reaching out to the manufacturer to see if they have any documentation, I'll post back if I find anything.
Edit: Also see the official Rockchip wiki.

Hello:
I'm not a developer in the least bit, but I'm trying to find firmware for AD-X37. I've done some searching and thought this might be helpful for anyone who might understand the information: https://www.oschina.net/informat/linux下go语言开发
【GoRK3288】1.Rockchip RK3288, GO!GO!!GO!!! - OSCHINA - 中文开源技术交流社区

www.oschina.net
Also, maybe this information about maskrom mode from https://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/Firefly-RK3288/upgrade_table.html
Focus on: In Windows, When Linux upgrade to the Android5.1, how to enter Maskrom Mode:
Steps are as follows:
In AndroidTool_v2.58, click “Erase Flash”, this step is erase IDB, it can’t erase flash, so it will appear “erase flash failed”;
Reboot, in AndroidTool_v2.35, click “Erase Flash”, when it finish, the board will enter Maskrom Mode;
Click “Upgrade” to start burn the Android5.1 firmware.
Sorry if this is not helpful at all. Please keep us updated.
Thank you for the info, @jimlarson77! Did you happen to see any steps for backing up the flash before erasing?
I did hear back from SunChip:
Sunchip is one of Apple's provider. We are professional manufacturer and designer of LCD digital signage which established in 2012,we have more than 80 engineers focus on Android mainboard's software and hardware R & D, commercial media player/box(support Android and Linux OS), also provide SKD parts for LCD digital signage.

I did not see any steps for backing up the flash before erasing. I attempted to flash firefly firmware(through the complete steps listed in that last link I sent about Maskrom, and everything went perfectly until the firmware was flashed. Now the board I tried it on won't power on(I'm aware now that the firmware was not the correct one).
If you would like to run some tests with a functional or non-functional board, I could let you play around with a few that I have.
Thank you for the offer @jimlarson77. My curiosity is only from an amerature hobbyist perspective; I'm curious if I can get my digital sign working and flashed, but otherwise I will just try to part it out.
