[Q] Ubuntu on Galaxy Nexus i9250 - Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I wanted to install Ubuntu Touch on my galaxy nexus i9250, wanted to know is it safe and can it be used as a daily driver ?

it CAN be used as a daily driver.. But only for basic things.. No music, videos. Just phone, SMS, data and camera really.

Use Root Explorer or similar app. Browse to the root if your phone. Locate the System folder and open it.Inside is a media folder with all the system sounds.

An old Galaxy Tab 10.1 in need of wiping

Hello all,
I have an old Galaxy Tab 10.1 32GB WiFi only that I seem to have bricked a long time ago. I am able to access fastboot and recovery but the tablet does not boot into Android. It stays at the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 logo without going anywhere. So what I'm planning to do is to to re-flash everything including bootloader and firmware using Odin3. The problem is that I can't find those files anywhere and need some help with finding them.
Thanks.

Hi Guys!
Since the jflte family of devices is almost exactly the same I thought I would post my I9505 (jflte) Rom here for you as well!
It has been tested by jfltetmo and jfltecan users and is confirmed working!
To install it, just download the I9505 rom and then flash the appropriate device specific package I created.
Download the rom from this thread
Download the appropriate device specific package
Install CWM or TWRP recovery.
Boot into recovery, install ROM, then install the device specific package then install gapps.
Wipe Data/Factory Reset if coming from another Rom.
Reboot and enjoy!
Your device name might show up as I9505. If you are bothered by it you can edit the file /system/build.prop in the rom .zip package before you flash it.
This does not affect the way the rom functions in any way.
Please let me know if you have successfully installed and running this rom on any of the US variants of the S4. I don't own the device!
Donate to Bajee, the creator of this rom
Donate to CyanogenMod
Donate to AOKP

If you have TWRP or one of the other recoveries installed you can flash it in the recovery.

He means to flash it before you ever even try to boot into system.
Ah ok. U mean flash a kernel right after im done installing the rom in twrp?

Yes that usually pops on a loki issue if im not mistaken. So your steps would be to flash the rom, flash your preferred kernel(i personally like the chronic kernel) then flash your gapps package.

Is this thread still alive or what. I grabbed the rootbox stable and nightly version from goo. And I got to say is pretty solid feeling. I can't find a support thread for these releases unfortunately data doesn't work on either build. All the other junk ass aosp builds have data. I would like to achive data or at least find a support thread.
Any ideas suggestions or input is appreciated Thanks

So how did you create this, Samsung hasn't released it, who onows they may never. Is it a Note 3 ROM like your 4.2.2 one modified to work on our Canadian Note 8?
What about root? What about 4.2.2 bootloader? Does it have the external SD locked for writing from apps like the real Kitkat?
Give us some info? If this is real, its amazing and we all owe you?

I didn't think the 5120 rom would work in our tablet. The 4.2.2 didn't, you had to create a special ROM.

I think AT&T is the i467. The Canadian carriers were the i467M. I don't know the difference but I wouldn't download this yet. Don't want to brick until I understand what this is.
I know that there is no release from Samsung for our ROMS, also that the 4.2.2 ROM from the 5120's LTE Note didn't work on ours, so be VERY careful. I'm waiting for some info from the developer as to what this is.
This same developer did a version of 4.2.2 for our i467M's. I'm using it, and it's great. The thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446155
But I think that was ported from a Tab 3 as he called the thread 4.2.2 N5210 for i467M. The N5210 is not a Note. it is a Tab 3 10.1 inch tablet.

I tried the other ROM the developer did for the Canadian variants on my AT&T and couldn't get around the AT&T locked bootloader.
Just noticed in the OP that wifi is not working. So really not ready yet. Any update Yorgo, perhaps more info in the OP would be good.
Thanks
@Yorgo1982 Glad you're breathing a little life back into this tablet. Samsung seems they have deserted us again. Any hope on getting wifi up and running?
I will do my best as im not a user of this tablet anymore.

Is the kernel 5120 as well? If it is then maybe be able to attain wifi using the spherecat kernel. If it isn't than perhaps looking at the present i467m kernel may lead to some headway.
I will do my best to try later on my mum's tablet

Nice work. I'm ready to install it. Is there anything NOT working?
Do I have to root it after I install, and do I have to put on a custom recovery again, or will that remain?

Is it necessary to wipe data before doing an Odin install, or does Odin overwrite everything?

[Q] Multiple rom selection

Good Afternoon,
Just a general question. I'm running cynogenmod 12 right now. I had a good copy of slim rom
Going too. Is there an app or zip file I could install to pick which to load when my tablet boots up?

Yes, it's called multi rom but it isn't available for our galaxy tab gt-p7510/7500
Hold on... What tablet do you have? There is to my knowledge, no cm 12 for this tablet.

I'm using a Samsung Tablet 10.1 WiFi only edition. P5110 I believe. If that's what you are using too, I can copy the link to you. I will look for the multi rom too right now.
Thanks for the help

My bad, there is no multi rom for your device. I just looked it up and your tablet isn't supported.
