I am wanting to run Android 2.3.x or Android 3 from my PC. I know this is able to be done via booting to USB however is Android 3 in developement to do the same. I am considering setting up a PC solely with Android on my windows network.
It's not hard to do, I played around with it.
Download the Android OS (google) android-x86-2.3-RC1-tx2500.iso
If running Windows 7, run a virtual machine and you can run it from there.
Instructions were on a website but I don't remember which one.
Just google running android from a pc.

Hi All
Here's a new member extending warm regards to everyone on XDA.
Need help on Rooting my Dell XCD 35, which is running Android 2.2.
What I have successfully done so far is that I have installed JDK and SDK for Android. However, when the SDK tries to connect for downloading repository, it gives me connection times out error (Internet working otherwise). To install the Phone Drivers, I also tried to search for the driver manually, but to no avail. I am really stuck at this time as I don't want to go ahead and start rooting without installing the Phone drivers on the computer. I am assuming it is not advisable.
Please help as the On Phone memory is starting to run out and I need to be able to work as a root user so that I could move some more apps to SD card and tweak the system for performance.
Thanks.

I Downloaded the latest Android SDK,JAVA SDK and JRE.
Installed it successfully.
Updated the plug-in in Eclipse also.
I able to run developed apps on Mobile through USB Debugging mode from Eclipse.
Problem is I can't able to run the same app on emulator.
I create the emulator successfully on AVD Manager.
After it created when i click start.
It shows a progress and then Red light continuously on cpu for few seconds.
Then nothing opens.
I checked it on Task manager, it have "emulator-arm.exe" as process.

I'm using the same software.
But not working...
Hi, I've installed Android SDK and learnt how to open in Win7 by running as admin. Also installed Java JDK
When I tick the boxes to install 1 or more platforms, the upload seems to start and get to maybe 30%...but then it just stalls and hangs.
Does this symptom suggest anything I've not done correctly on my install?

Can SGH-t399 be rooted with Heimdall
I have rooted/modded several devices in the past. However, I recently ended up with only access to a Mac computer, I purchased this phone over the holiday and am unsure when i will have access to a Windows desktop to run the appropriate scripts. I downloaded and installed Heimdall / Frontend and was curious to know if i would be able to use this instead of ODIN to root my samsung Galaxy light. I haven't found any information about it yet, and i want to research a bit before doing something that may brick my phone in its vulnerable "recovery-less" state.
Also; My phone was purchased at metro pcs, and is sporting different build and version numbers than what I've seen on the internet. I haven't seen many posts in 2015 so i was wondering if the exploit had been patched in a recent update or something. Any information would be appreciated as to how to root this on a mac, or via Heimdall. Ive included the build number and such in case that may effect my options.. thank you
Android version 4.4.2
Baseband version t399NUVUANK3
Kernel 3.4.39-2903595
Build number KOT49H.t399NUVUANK3
Believe it or not if im correct the firmware for both can be used on either version because they are basically identical. I was able to run metropcs on my tmobile. Also have you tried running a windows emulator on your mac. You can try that and see if it works. Let me know if it works ok.

I did try running an emulator. I am using the current version of virtual box on the current version of Mac osx. The problem is I can't get the virtual machine ( windows xp) to read my host (Mac) to share internet connections. So I can't download Odin onto the guest. Also, I tried mounting a folder with Odin and the root files but it doesn't show up. Same with USB stick. I don't want to derail this thread into a topic of using virtual box, but I can't seem to find anything on the internet in laymen's terms about how to workaround this problem. I'm pretty sure my version of virtual box has the necessary guest extensions installed with it. I've come soooo far in my quest for root. Any help if you have knowledge on this subject would be appreciated. And yes, I am looking for the shared folder on the guest machine within network connections via windows explorer .

Hi
I recently installed Remix OS to my Asus X502C laptop and it all seemed really quick and easy so I decided to try it out on my old Linx 7 Windows Tablet and my iRulu Windows W1005 however I just cannot seem to get it to work.
I can get it installed to either the hdd or a bootable USB drive but when I choose the Android OS to boot from I get varying errors of missing things etc and then it hangs on a black screen.
I have also tried various other Android images listed to work on Windows tabs and other installers; Rufus, the Androidx86 installer 2.4 from a thread on this forum etc..
I can run MEmu no problem on my iRulu but I really would like a dual boot on it or just single boot on the Linx 7, I am a member on the Linx forum and Reddit but the Android discussion seems to be dead on there and guides/files are missing but people have said they have had Android running.
Can anyone point me to something that will work?
Thanks in advance for any help.
