Hey.
I have an Android Tablet (Archos 70) and I love Ubuntu!
What is the best way to make Android (2.2) look like Ubuntu (any version)
I currently use Go Ubuntu Unity
( https://market.android.com/details?i...W50dXVuaXR5Il0. ) but I want something that could make it look more closer to Ubuntu =)
Thanks

why not just run ubuntu see my sig
Or go here: http://wiki.gitbrew.org/wikibrew/Android:Debdroid
And don't have to pay for it.
If you would read the market entry correct, that app is for free to.
There is a donate version where you can pay.

Indeed my app is free, yes you have the option to pay and if you do you get extras including all updates first and faster downloads etc.... I am very sorry Harfainx for giving people the option to support my project
Sorry, but I didn't even see a free version. I clicked your link and it took me to a paid app in the market.
I apologize for trying to help someone not have to pay for what is available all over the internet for free.
I clearly see the free version in your thread now though.

Okay, I started this project about a month ago and I never really got into it. Now that I have some spare time I decided to continue.
I'm writing a program to download the latest CyanogenMod or TheOfficial Nexus ROM. After that you will choose what you want in the ROM (eg. wifi tether, Amazon MP3, Spare Parts)
Once you decide what you want in the ROM the program will remove whatever you do not want and rebuild it for you. After you rebuild it, it will give you the option allow the program to move it to your sdcard and even reboot your phone into recovery where you can perform a Nandroid and apply the ROM yourself (I will not write the program to apply the ROM because it's not really a good idea).
The program will be free of charge and you can download it and install it directly on your computer. (Windows only, sorry)
Now this sounds a LOT easier than it really is so if anybody has any experience with C# let me know if you want to help. Send me an email at [myscreenname] gmail com. Please do not email or chat me unless you're wanting to help develop the code. When I need testers I will let you know.

Q & A
Q: How is this different than Modaco's ROM kitchen?
A: Mine is software, installs on your computer with updates, and it will be free.
It's not exactly the same thing but close.
No hard feelings Modaco, don't take it personal.
Q: When will it release?
A: I can't tell you a date or a specific time but I'm working on it and I will post it the minute I think it's stable enough to pass out.
Q: Will it work on Linux or Mac?
A: Originally no, but I've had some ideas come in about Mac so I'll let you know

"The program will be free of charge and you can download it and install it directly on your computer."
Free (no need to be a paid member of somewhere) and it's not a web app.
AWESOME!!!! I have always wanted something like this... and its free!!!
it will run on linux ?
I'd love to test it for you when your looking for some beta testers

Okay, thanks. I'll let you know when I get to that point.
Thanks for you efforts. I Don agree with modaco charging for something that has been free to access. What if xda forum started charging to access this site? It would kill the spirit of what most Tom chefs do here. Smh.
Sheesh, you guys don't read, or something.
He doesnt charge for access to his ROMs. But he offers his subscribers the benefit of being able to customize their ROMs to their liking, pre-flash. The "base" install without customizations are, and always have been, available for free.
Wow!
Any idea of a release date?
I can see a new section of the cm website coming soon ..............
Will you already need to be rooted for this program to work or will this be a graphical program that will also root the phone? Thanks
Looking forward to this, i will definitely contribute to your cause.
I will also volunteer to beta test for you, as well as donate for a copy of the final product. I think its awesome you're doing this.
And, as a guy who tri-boots Fedora, OSX and Win7, I feel you on the "I only write Windows stuff".
However, you should check into this tool, to make what you're writing at least cross-platform for Mac. And, its totally free (and no, I don't work for them).

You don't need a Mac to deploy to one. This is basically an IDE with a Cocoa compiler as well as a .NET compiler.
Kind of similar to how Visual Studio translates whatever language you're writing in to MSIL before compiling, but on a broader scale.
Hi,
is it possible to install the "new honeycomb" youtube app on a gen8? Where can I find it?
I'm talking about this one:

BTW: 2nd day with my Gen8 (Urukdroid). Decent device!!

First: Welcome on this Forum!
This would be hard, it requires Android >3.0 so normally we cant get t..
But it would be possible to hack into the app and disable the Android Version check or set the check down to FroYo
But this is very hard... I couldnt do it
PS Wrong Forum. ("Apps and Themes")
Thread moved to proper forum.

This is not entirely true..
You see, just disabling the version check won't do it.
Since a lot of parts the app will be made specifically for 3.0, there might be used API's Froyo doesn't have.
I mean, setting the version check down to Froyo is quite simple, all you have to do is change one or two lines in the android manifest file (where it says minimal SDK if I'm right).
But that alone just wouldn't do it, it will only (if you're lucky) get you to install the app.
Maybe I'll look into it later, sounds interesting.

If you want the kindle, here's how using linux, works with latest WebOS.
1. Download & install the Palm SDK for linux
2. Just download the app file here.
http://bayfiles.com/file/RB7/oE4hSN/com.palm.app.kindle_0.11.499820_all.ipk
Go to the folder you downloaded and type this command while connected with usb cable to your touchpad, or just install the app any other way you know how.
palm-install com.palm.app.kindle_0.11.499820_all.ipk
Thank you, works perfectly. I put the ipk in my dropbox and installed it with preware without bothering with usb. It also syncs with the Amazon.co.uk accounts without a complaint.
Kindle App still available
As per title,I have searched everywhere,googled it.It was once available but i cannot for the life of me find out to where to download it from.
Any ideas?
Thanks
It has been withdrawn in Europe ( I think) but the US beta version can be had. If I remember correctly I downloaded it from webosbuzz and loaded it using webOS quick install through my desktop. You can still use a UK Amazon account to buy books despite the way the app was obtained. I'm not at home just now so I can't confirm that's where I got it but if you can't find it there post again and I'll double check.
I can't find the .ipk on the site you mentioned. If it's allowed (surely it must if it's a free app) would someone be able to post the updated .ipk on here?
This is the link to where I found it. XDA doesn't seem to allow me to upload it directly
http://www.filesonic.com/file/1779584324/Kindle.ipk
If that won't take you straight there then the link was from Webosbuzz within the HP touchpad apps forum. That particular forum is private so you have to creat an account.
Good luck.
Ps the app seems to work ok. I have been able to get books from Amazon uk- no sideloading though.
Found the newest version: http://hotfile.com/dl/128523150/76e47a4/com.palm.app.kindle_0.11.499820_all.ipk.html
The page turning makes all the difference.
cheers, I'll try that later.

I found this version much buggier than the 0.10.494660 version - it tends to give a blank white screen much more regularly than the older version gives a blank grey screen!
thanks dude, precentral keeps taking down the ipk everytime someone posts it

That is quite some high horse your sitting on fella. It is easy for you to say that when you live in a land where the kindle app has not been withdrawn. Us euro users just want the same services that you have, after all we did pay more for our touchpads than you guys ever did.
It's not theft, it is digital liberation.

well you wanted an answer to why precentral is taking the links down...
So for my class I need to make a mobile app about the arctic fox. I no absolutely no coding at all and have been scouring the web for programs that will work. I've tried MIT/Google App creator but didn't have much luck with it. I'd like it so that when you press any one of the 5 images of the fox a text box will pop out with additional information. For the title page, I just want it to simply show it as a splash screen. If anyone can recommend a suitable program that would be amazing!
Umm seems that since I don't have 10 posts kindly look at this thread for the images: overclock.net/t/1347502/making-an-android-app-help/0_30
Warm regards

i can help you with coding if you want... just write me a pn...

lol you'd think so right? Funny thing is this is a science course and all she did was link some free app builder (they are terrible btw). I have no idea why this assignment is here. I found MobinCube which has everything I need except the fact that it just smacks an ad right on the bottom of it and paying for an ad free one is 150$.

First off dont bump your thread people will answer in due cause.
The develop programs for android you will need to use Java, you will then need to download the Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
You will likely also want to use a IDE something like eclipse or intellij
Where to start all depeneds on past knowledge, If you know very little/nothing there is a few good guides on how to get started on here just search for them.
how you get paid via ads depends on the ad company you use, some pay you per install some pay you per click of the ad etc.
Either way a far better way of making money would be to have a free version and paid version of your app (or maybe in app purchases if it is a game)
