yea that why i ask about win7 cos i know its not working
and its really slow
so maybe this bootloader could change things
or its slow cos the slow sd ?:X
btw what the performance of the internal storage ?
anything built for ARM devices maybe?
why would you even want to run 7
so i could have lots of apps avilable
and has already gr8 multi-touch
I wonder how I can upgrade my x10 mini pro to android 2.1 from my linux pc. I don't have any windows box at all. I'm looking for somthing like htc-flasher, but for x10.
Anyone?
Well, I dont know if that would help, but i just updated in Linux through Virtualbox

Can you elaborate on how you did this? Because it wasn't possbile for me in VirtualBox, due to the fact that it didn't keep the USB connection.
I’m guessing he is using the non-free version of virualbox with usb support. I don't have a windows cd, so that’s no option.
Maybe the java tool posted in this thread forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826455 can be used on linux after some modifications?
Yes, that was a must.
To keep the USB connection you have to add it as a filter in the settings tab:
Without starting the virtual machine, connect the phone and go to settings > usb, select to add a filter and select the phone. I think that should work for PC Companion. If you plan to update with seus the usb device is a different one, so you should put the phone in flash mode and add the filter for the corresponding device. After the update, the name of the devices will change again, so you need to add new filters again.
Btw, I wasn't able to root through Virtualbox using Superoneclickroot but I think it was because I didn't stop PC Companion properly...

Yes, you also need usb support.
If you don't have any windows at all maybe you could try flashtools in wine...

How did you root the phone then?

I think it has some very primitive support, but certainly I wouldn't go that way...

This morning I had acces to a computer with windows, and I tried to root using Superoneclickroot and I ended up having the same problem as with Virtualbox (the program was running but it was stuck at a loop), but this time I tried Ctrl+Alt+Del > Manage tasks > Finish PcComapnion, and it automatically rooted. I think If I had done the same before It would have worked...
rooting the phone with linux works like a charm... you need the sdk from h t t p : / / developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (sorry i can't post correct links)... i haven't tried flashing it yet because i'm waiting for the official update in switzerland

I guess you are talking android 1.6 for the rooting from linux with android sdk tools (adb?)

exactly... as soon as i have 2.1 i'll post what method i used
This is driving me crazy. I am also trying to install the 2.1 update with virtual box (non-free 3.2.10) on Mini Pro.
I am unable to get a proper USB connection to the device although it shows in the filters settings when I boot the VM it remains greyed out.
Can anybody else report success?
Sony Ericsson deserve a big slap for this.
Update: Sorry to solve my own problem, but isn't this so often the way after you ask for help:
I had to add my user to the vboxusers group, after which the usb connection worked fine.

adb works great in Linux, both for 1.6 and 2.1, but the problem is there are no flashing tools available to update.
As for rooting the phone, the program I used in 2.1 (superoneclick) seems to be a gui for some batch process in adb, hence maybe reproducing all this steps in adbshell (pushing the necesasary files, running rageagaintshecage, getting the mountpath...) one could root the phone the same way...
It looks like the superoneclick author will add linux support in the next release.

to bad the USBFlash.dll is from sony ericsson. we'll never know what the library does.
but i just played through the game of updating using a virtualbox windows machine... works like a charm. wrote down the simple steps to get it done here: h t t p : / / munz.li/?p=110

Good, I hadn't seen that before. And well, looks like it's already supported. I just installed it,
you have to run the .exe file through mono. I tried and looks like working correctly, it detects the phone... but mine is already rooted so I'm not sure...

Hey guys,
I need some help. I downloaded Ubuntu 11.10 because I heard 12.04 is not as good and I need some help with the installation. I want to keep Windows 7 on my PC as well as boot Ubuntu.
So I just need to figure out how to set it up so it gives me a prompt as to which OS I want to boot...Virtualize simply. haha
Also I am not very familiar with Linux' file system so I also may need some assistance in installing the SDK, JDK, ect.
I thought you said you were a dev over in the Epic sub forums. If you were a dev, Linux and bootloader installs should be second nature.

You can use the wubi installer that should be on the ubuntu DVD ISO that you downloaded.

The Ubuntu installer should handle all that. Since you already have windows you just need to shrink the windows partition to make room for Ubuntu and install Ubuntu to the free space. Once installed Ubuntu uses the grub bootloader which will give you the option of which system to boot into everytime you start up the computer.
As far as commands and installing stuff goes you may as well start reading up on it. You'll need to know how to use the Terminal to develop in Linux. Its not complicated once you learn common commands, etc. Also, I recommend using Gnome classic or kde as your desktop environment if you want something that looks similar to Windows. I'm a KDE person myself.

I'm building on12.04 with zero problems...just my $0.02. And like the other's said just install Ubuntu takes care of all that stuff.
Oh and ALWAYS create a backup before you start installing new OS's!

When I get on a computer I'll write up how I got my laptop to dual boot Windows and Ubuntu. I've actually got it triple booting Mac OSX as well.

to setup a dual boot system, u only need a free partition to install linux. a very basic linux installation u have to create root partition and swap partition. u can find installation guide online, its not that hard to setup a dual boot between linux and windows.
Okay cool. Because id like to get into Rom development,etc so I need Ubuntu or Mac OS X. Not too sure which ones better though. I assume Ubuntu is because its Linux and that's Android runs on

Can anybody explain me how to install android os on virtual machine on my computer. So that i can easily use the android apps on my pc without using the emulator and i think this would work better. Please Help...
You may take advantage of BlueStacks.
My recommendation: BLISS OS ( dual boot solution )
Emulators - where it doesn't matter which one - are always only a stopgap solution. Because emulators share system resources with PC, a high-end PC is neded to more or less flawlessly run an emulator instance.
Hi Kajal,
I totally agree with all the other answers like you can easily install Bluestacks on your computer and can use android apps easily. But only things only thing in bluestack is that you have good amount of RAM so that the apps can run smoothly. But still if you want to install android Operating system on virtual machine then you can follow these steps:-
Download the android ISO file from android-x86 and then download Virtualbox and install it properly.
1. Now Open Virtualbox
2. Create Virtualbox a new virtual machine
3. Configure virtual machine RAM and Harddrive.
4. Now import the ISO file in the virtual machine and setup it properly.
5. Now Adjust your Video Memory allocated for the android virtual machine.
6. Now once your android machine is created, Click on Start.
7. It will start loading the android files and then select the harddrive where it will be installed.
8. Now wait for few minutes and it will be ready to RUN.
I know the process is little longer, that i have also attached the guide showing how to install Android OS properly.

If it doesn't work. Please comment below, i would definitely love to guide you further.
Thanks,
Hope it helps
