[Q] Ubuntu Touch MOBiLE + Ubuntu PC = sending SMS from PC ? - Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to all Ubuntu Touch MOBiLE and Ubuntu PC users, testers...
I am hesitating to change to this OS on both upper listed devices , so phone and pc also...
I had also some experinences with Linux / Ubuntu OS in PC, but the touch version is new und untested for me. My mobile device is listed in compatibility list, so its all ,,open,, to test it and pair with Ubuntu PC.
Im moment im using Windows PC with Android Phone (work), so i need to reinstall both systems.
Has somebody experince to pair Mobile device and PC , both with Ubuntu OS and managed the mobile phone from PC ? I ,,saw,, this option on promo video of Ubuntu Phone. I think its shouold be something like ,,HandOff,, on Apple products... But i need to be 100% sure, and i need to know all information about this function.
The reason , why im asking my question is, that im using android Phone for work daily ! I NEED to READ / WRiTE SMS from PC, and sometimes editing the contacts in my phone. So this is the MAJOR function,that im using yet with combination of Windows PC and Android Phone , with MyPhoneExplorer software/client. This combination works without problems !
The only reason to try to change is my aversion of Android phone, the old not upgradable Android version and of course the costs by Windows PC. If its the a free option to make a change to better, modern, than why not.. I think all users here knows the advantages of free open source OS, so i doesnt need to extend this think...
First , sorry for my English , and then..
Thank you in advance for your repyes , comments !

Hi,
Sadly, that's not possible yet. There's nearly no advantage in connecting an Ubuntu phone to an Ubuntu PC at the moment.

[Q] [IDEA] Dual-Boot

I am waiting for my Archos 70 to come in. It should be here the 6th. and I was just wondering would it be possible to dual-boot windows on it? Sorry if it sounds stupid but this is my first tablet and just wondered if it would be possible.
and the reason why i would like it is because I would love to run android as the main platform but would also love to be able to run certain programs like Rosetta Stone while I'm on the go.
Not until the ARM version of Windows becomes available. You might be able to CE but I haven't seen anyone do that yet. You will also need to install the SDE to dual boot.
sorry to sound noobish but what is sde and CE?

SDE is the "Special Developers Edition" of the Achos Firmware. You install it on your Archos & it will let you boot into a developer's menu which you can use to boot into other operating systems (at this point, Linux Based stuff including Android).
CE is the old-school embedable version of Windows that was used on PDAs & stuff 10 years ago. It is the precursor to Windows Mobile. It is still used in some cash registers & other specialty machines. Maybe you could manage to install it on your Archos...you won't be happy!
If I do use windows i will only use it when I want to use Rosetta Stone if it's compatible. But if we can do that we can switch between android and windows whenever we want?
NOOOOO.
You could only install Windows CE if ever.
And that is not a PC Windows.

I tried to search for you *which you might get flamed for by others for not doing first* but it looks like the general concencious is because windows mobile is a closed source there is no way for them to make the port over. the only reason people have been able to port android over to a window mobile phone is because its open source.
anyway why would you ever want to run windows mobile? even if you could find another phone close to it and somehow copy their winmo it would be buggy beyond comprehension with no way to fix
No as of now it cannot be done. Ive been hoping something would come along on Android that would allow ARM CPU visualization and emulated sound/graphics so that other ARM based operating systems like Windows Mobile, etc could be run without the need to emulate the CPU. This is similar to Virtualbox on desktops which will allow you to run x86/64 based operating systems at a decent speed since the CPU is virtualized.

Ubuntu Touch = Ubuntu Desktop ?

If I install ubuntu touch on Nexus 4 and I will connect my Smartphone to Tv. Is this will look like Ubuntu Desktop or not ?
Or is Ubuntu Touch just modificated verion of android ?
Unfortunately, that's not supported yet. I hope that we'll see it soon but it will probably take some time.
Even though its base is Android, it is completely different. It's a whole new OS.
I'd suggest to try it in connection with MultiROM as I still need Android for emails etc. Therefore, dual-boot is the best solution for me.
this could help..
maybe try this out - http://makethebestof.weebly.com/how-tos/how-to-dual-boot-linux-on-nexus-7. helped me

Install Ubuntu or Debian on Android Device?

Hi Geniuses! I tell them that I have a smartphone that they have given me and that the display is broken but I have managed to make it work from the PC and I use it to do tests and experiments since I can not buy the display.
I was seeing that several speak of installing Ubuntu or Debian on Android (ARM chip) and I came up with the idea of using the smartphone as a server, in fact if I could connect a disk by OTG I could use it very well.
Is it possible to install Ubuntu or Debian and use it as a server without the GUI interface? It is clear that I will not need it because the display is not functional hahaha. Only the touch works and I have it rooted and unlocked the bootloader.
Any ideas to start using it as a server?
My device is: Moto E XT1021
Hi there , you cannot install it directly in the device , you can however use an app like Linux Deploy (free on the play store) and it will work fine as a server

WINDOWS 10/11 , CHROMEOS , UBUNTU

Do you think there's any way to install WIN 10/11 on our tablet? (No emulators)[Dual Boot Maybe], even the ARM version works.
I am also ready to install (dualboot) chrome os (CloudReady), but for that we need the device to boot from live usb which maybe isn't available on our tablet, and if it is, please guide me.
I've done my part of research and I've been using the tab s 7+ for about 4 months now. I need windows or a full on chrome desktop experience of windows. My last resort for this will be Linux/Ubuntu, which i am not willing to go for, but will do if i have no other option.

I haven't heard of anyone installing windows 10 even windows 11 on an android tablet like the tab s7
Your best bet would be Linux or smth like that because the kernel would be similar.
Windows can’t be installed because Windows use a different kernel process from Linux and android, nonetheless, I don't know if anyone has managed to run it.

Won't happen.
The bootloader will not allow it and Win 10/11 does not support the Qualcomm 865 SOC.

I don't think the 845 was supported either, yet the Oneplus 6t runs Windows 11 though
Here's Windows 11 running on a OnePlus 6T months before it gets Android 11 [Video]
A talented developer has managed to install Microsoft's new Windows 11 platform on the OnePlus 6T, a device even lacking Android 11.

It loads and kinda runs, but core SOC features do not work.
So no, the 845 is not "supported".
No network, no bluetooth, no sound, partially functioning GPU... that's not a functional device.
An of course the high risk of bricking your device.
it is windows 11, idk if windows ARM would run it but idk, i rather not risk breaking my phone for installing windows
Hi,
I came across this article on how it can be done. https://www.androidauthority.com/install-windows-on-android-868800/

Here's how to install Windows on Android tablets
You can't directly install Windows on an Android tablet, but you can certainly use it on one. Here's how to use Windows on an Android tablet.

I wish this was possible .. now i am selling my tablet over this hhhh i mean cause i need to run windows
While the Windows 11 ARM Versions start to slowley emerge for some android devices, give Parsec a try for your Remote Desktop work. It differs from RDP, since over parsec you can actually use the Host PC's GPU.
There are some android tablets that have Windows 11 up and running: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaom...devices-that-can-run-Windows-11.604674.0.html
