HI everyone i actually downloading the android "L" factory image for nexus 5 but i want to port it to my htc one x using this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008 is it wanna working ?
up
I'm interested, too. Maybe I'll try it today. I don't think it will work though, as this is a major update
Think it just need to follow the tutorial but not sure it will run on the tegra 3 chipset... But wait, one of nexus 7 have tegra 3 but it's the 2012 version the developer preview not ported on it, only the 2013 version with snapdragon is supported.
i was trying to port it today with no succes it causes a bootloop (the weird color balls turning around ) if anyone can help me please i never ported rom before !
PS: in the factory image, all is compressed as .img files, it need to be converted to ext4, mounted with linux reader and put all the files in a folder
No luck for me either. I guess we'll have to wait for CM12

I just got a batch of the Avaya Flare Experience tablets... They sent us ten of them as a part of a major order. (it was cheaper to get the package)
Since these are Android-based, I figure there has to be a way to root them.
Anyone interested in working on this?
I have carte blanche since no one wants one while they're all Avaya'ed up.
If they're rooted as regular Android tablets, I'm sure my team will be interested in them.
Unfortunately, I have no idea where to begin.
Any thoughts on breaking the startup sequence or where to start with rooting these?
Thanks!

Played around the device on my office was able to load an x86 android live usb boot a bit buggy cam not working and some other stuffs but since the infra project was scrapped its much usable than stock firmware. Not realy sure but if the divers were properly loaded and the usb image repacked with flare drivers would eliminate the bugs in any case its a nice tablet to tinker with
here are some proof of concept pics and stuffs , and yeah need a usb keyboard for input, a usb mouse can also be attach , wifi working, touch working, some games will not run/crash since majority of stuff on google play is not optimized / coded for x86
What was the software that you used ? that version?

I just got a flare myself. I would love to get some help rooting and loading x86 android on it. I know this is an ancient thread. Zxhian if you are still out there could you contact me? Either here or at my user name at yahoo dot com.
Hello,
My company trashed some Avaya A175. With a colleague we would like to play with but they are stuck in the very first firmware version and it is not possible to download latest firmwares on Avaya's website (404). Would someone havea newer verseion?
So these days i was googling for a way to really install windows 8 on android tablets. I came over a video about a software called "changemysoftware". It seems it would make your devicea dual boot with windows 8 and android. What do you think? Is this fake?

Yes. It is fake.

But theres a video of someone installing it on their Android, it dual boots windows 8 and android, but windows 8 was laggy due to his dual core tab. There were 200+ likes and 20+ dislikes so, seems legit, he also uploaded the program onto ZippyShare so that you didn't have to do the survey, but when I tried it tells me the software is outdated and needs to be updated, so I cant do it unless I update it completing the survey...
You do know that it can still be faked right?
Give me half an hour and I'll show you how to install any OS on any device. All that was is a video of something on someone's PC screen.
Okay, I know this I am late for the talk but I think this is best for future questions. Just to be clear for other people who is confused with this scam.
The program is .NET framework based so I decompiled it with .NET Reflector. I got the source and trust me, there is no ADB related code. It is picture and text popping out. Also if you try to rename one of its .DLL file, it is the text "changemysoftware" spamming around to make hundreds kilobytes file. You might think I'm lying so you better see the source itself, download the attachment.
Note: Reflector failed to decompile it into Visual basic or C# so .IL file is only working. Try to find "ButtonX_Click" event in the Form1.il. Pictures and assets are in the .resources file.
fake images only
It's a fake. I just tried without connection any device. it showed as my device locked and have to contact them to unlock. to drag money....

Change my software is fake! But there are many ways to run windows on Android:
Can you install it with BOCHS, but it is Windows XP
Can you use TeamViewer but you need a PC
If you find 2 tablets with the same hardware but one with Android the other Windows one then it is not a problem this dual boot with just a some fix to the bootloader. Or if you collect all of the drivers from windows tablets and find Android tablet with hardware that has win drivers and then mod the windows rom...
Only phone I've ever seen that on was the old HTC HD2.
windows can run on android 100% full speed, i have try it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/zf2-running-windows-7-using-kvm-t3153299/page29

what the oooooo is this i got to play some game or some thing to download it like ooooooossssss rely
I checked tha there is new version: http://changemysoftware.org
Is it still a scam ?
There is a survey on official site I can't complete that survey actually most of the survey can't completed
Thanks you the advise. I trusted it and downloaded the file. Haha

You can't do that, but may be ask a dev to build a Windows arm build may be?
Technically, yes.You can find arm64 windows rom on UUPdump.
But it does not works on any android so we need to develop.
First you need a rooted 64bit phone with twrp and unlocked bootloader.
Then wait for a dev to re-partition device to only /system ,/ recovery and /bootloader.
Then he needs to develop drivers for that device.
That dev also needs to debug a uefi bootloader and after bootting from usb and install windows,thats done.
But it still need a arch converter which is placed in windows installer that can convert X86 or AMD64 apps (.exe)(.msi)into ARM64 apps.
It is hard so no one(at least not me ) can do this and the device-adding speed will be extremely slow.
(You need to re-develop when the cpu is changed. So only the arch-convertor is usable when you are working on a different device.)
[This is the full process to building windows arm64 build ]
Please note that arm32 is not supported.

Hi guys.
I just realised (this is probably not news for averyone else)
that the ZU is in the list of official AOSP support, including 5.1 and an M preview.
The one in the Sony website needs to be compiled, but is there any zip I can easily flash to my phone using the custom recovery?
Also, will this rom be able to update automatically?
thanks!
Unfortunately no, you must compile it yourself. The closest firmware to AOSP is the Scrubber's port of GP edition ROM, which with root + Xposed + GravityBox is a perfect ROM, using it for a week now and I won't change it until Android M port from GP edition Hovewer, today (I hope) I am going to compile a Android M build for ZU, if you are interested I can host it somewhere.
Regards

please do!
Okay, I will try, fingers already crossed

Building guys, so far no errors I think it will be ready in an hour, then I will host it on my Gdrive
Regards
I wanted to ask the same thing, i's a big learning curve for a noob like me. That's awesome that somebody with nowledge can compile it and share, me and my friend want to try it out, especially for Dose and Storage Inherit functions
It is still compiling which is good and bad, good because it indicates there are no errors and bad because I probably won't make it today but I will host it as soon as I can and give you guys a link
Regards
EDIT:
Finished uploading ^^
EDIT 2:
Okay guys, here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4TtJUVLy_SlZ3NDUDVOVk5XaWs/view?usp=sharing
Flash everything except userdata.img, it will wipe all your data, including internal memory, so photos and stuff will be gone but if you don't care about them, you can flash it as well. Before install, wipe data in TWRP or other recovery. Flash using fastboot:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (not necessary)
fastboot flash data userdata.img (not necessary if you wiped data in recovery)
Of course, I am not responsible for broken Ultras etc. and it is only for unlocked bootloaders. I haven't tested it because of low battery but it should boot without any hiccups. Happy flashing!
Regards
Just flashed it. Okay, just at first glance I can say that it's totally not worth trying for you guys.
for me the Bluetooth Exchange is crashing constantly, very annoying.
the whole system is barebones as expected.
camera doesnt work at all, there is no SIM reception.
not exactly a daily driver, nice to see it booting, but that's that
EDIT:
Also I feel a bit cheater on by Sony.
This looks nothing like M build on Nexus devices, it even says Lollipop on the easteregg
No new features from M in settings. So, what is this, Sony lied?
Yup, at the first glance I thought that this is a Lollipop, exactly nothing new.
Bluetooth exchange crashed for me a few times but it stopped somehow and really, this thing is far from the M Preview from Nexus devices, I am a bit disappointed too
Regards
Is there such a thing as a stock rom for this device??
Anywho... I'd Like to have android 5 or 6 on this device (if this is even possible idk).... and I bet there's a few others out there like myself.
Currently running edited stock ROM by acaele from needrom.com
This ROM works well, I've changed the ebr files for larger /data partition.
I'd like to know if my device screen resolution 540×960 is rare and part reason why I've found it difficult to port a later model android version.
Even the auto-search after entering thread title returned only threads with 0 replies...
So i have some no-brand chinese MT6580 running Lollipop 5.1 - not KitKat.
All the automatic and semi-automatic recovery porting tools work only for GB/JB/KK
Sadly the MT6580 kernel source was never leaked, so no compiling also.
Any way to get anything working? i would be even happy with a non-Touch CR...
Bumping this one as I am also looking for a way to port TWRP to my Galaxy S7 clone. And yes, it seems that none of the recovery porting tools seem to work on my end either. :/

I've hacked together a TWRP image for a FiGO "Virtue 2", 512MB, 8GB, MT6580, 5.1 but it is larger than the upload limit so I can not attach it for you. It seems to work with the possible exception thus far of not finding OTG storage, an issue which shall not keep me up at night. Installs, backs up, recovers ..... so far so good.
DISCLAIMER: As everyone says, use at your own risk. If the aliens come and take away your house pets or you experience any other device related or coincidental calamity of any kind, there's nothing I can, should, or will do about it.
Used the Carliv Image Kitchen, my stock recovery image, a TWRP image I found for an Infinix "Hot 2" and the general procedure found at this URL
http://www.xposedgeek.net/how-to-port-philzctrcwmtwrp-recovery-to-your-phone/
If you have the flash stuff for your factory build like I did it is probably a piece of cake, because I am pretty new at this sort of thing and if it can be screwed up I usually can find the way to do so. Took about an hour including thinking time before hitting the button. I was either brave or stupid and didn't even set up a virtual test first, but it works :cyclops: The Almighty must approve of my actions at some level.
Proceed with appropriate caution.
Hope that helps.

The lack of OTG support is indeed something of a shame, but at least this is something. Thanks for the tip mate!
EDIT: OK, so I managed to port TWRP to my device. Only problem is that I had to fiddle with the partitions, and for some reason there seems to be no other way to flip the screen back other than compiling another TWRP image or google my way through a compatible prebuilt by some kid online. I'll post my flipped-screen version ASAP when I get to compile that thing myself.
Sorry for the double-post, but here's the source-built port I made for inverted framebuffers:
https://github.com/huckleberrypie/android_device_alps_z6u030
I made it for clone devices in mind, but feel free to port or fork this in case you need to use this on your phone.
