Hello!!
I have an onda tablet v989...hardware wise is a really powerfull machine. So what i wat to do is :
Install linux preferably Debian, but any distro is ok.
Native would be the best option so it can acces and use all the hardware.
Or via Linux deply using frambuffer.
I have installed debia in my oneplus one smartphone with linux deploy. And with vnc is rather slugish. Via XServer SDL it runs more smooth. But i have read that framebuffer is the fastest way in terms of performance. i have even read that framebuffer will get 3d acceleration and stuff. but i could be wrong.
Because i want to use this tablet as my working unit. But i need to have a working linx distro that runs well enough to do all my daily work on it.
I have spend 3 weeks to try to get it to work. and read a lot and so on on my own, but now i need help.
Has anyone sucessfully run linux in an onda tablet?
Any help about how to acomplish this will be really appreciatet.
I thinks this will help a lot of people that want to have a tablet and be able to tun linux and do their everyday work on it.
specially if you travel a lot.
thanks everyone in advance.

Hi peeps,
I've just bought the ACER W500 Tablet and was wondering if there has been any development in regards to porting Android Honeycomb an a possible dual-boot betwee the two operating systems?
Any help with some hacks would appreciated, thanks in advance
?
ummm.... sorry the w500 is not arm. android runs on arm. why not sell it and get iconia a500? i have it and its very nice.

So what if it runs arm? You can work around and get it working in x86 too.
The way to install a Android distribution is easy, I think. First of all, you would need an USB - CD/DVD Drive. I recommend you to try installing it with virtual box first. If this works, then you can try installing it to the device it-self. I don't know how this would work but it's likely that you can't longer boot in Windows.
I'm sure it can be done, even with dual-booting but I don't own the device to help you.
Here is the Android Honeycomb 3.2 x86 image. http://code.google.com/p/android-x86/downloads/detail?name=android-x86-3.2-RC1-tegav2.iso

Moving to Q&A
just got one myself. any luck installing android on a dual boot?
I have gotten the Android Honeycomb X86 installed and running on here with 2 semi major drawbacks... No touch screen (mouse input only) and no sound... On a side note... Ubuntu runs great on it..
Hello guys, before the question, i am sorry if i am little english. i look some website that running Ubuntu on Android Device.
I am sorry i am new user in this site, so i can't using outside links in this posting, but you will find if you search on google about this.
i have some question about this case:
1. i am using Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 4.0 a.k.a Samsung YP-G1CW/XSE what ubuntu can running on my device?
2. How with OS Windows? what windows can running on my Device? Windows XP may be, or Windows 7..
Please Help me, i need to running other OS on my Android Device.. Thank's Before for your answer
There are two ways to run another OS on your device: chroot and qemu. You can run Ubuntu (or any Linux distribution that supports ARM processors) with little effort using the chroot method. Look up "Ubuntu installer free" in the store and it will walk you through. It may not work on the stock kernel, so make sure you have the kernel from these forums that fits your device.
The only way to run an OS like Windows is by virtualization through qemu, because it doesn't natively support the chip in your Galaxy S Wifi. This method requires a version of qemu compiled for ARM and additional libraries, which I have not gotten to work successfully on this device. (Anyone else?)
So I'd suggest just trying to get Ubuntu running. It won't be very fast or easy to use on a device that small, but it will work.

Thanks Very much for your solution, i will try search, qemu method or chroot methode.. hope i will can do it, because i am new for it. i am not a developer, or programmer. i just want to know more about gad-get
so thanks a lot.
I'm looking for a rom that supports Java. Web app's that to use you have to download for online games. I know there is probably not going to be a Android rom and that's fine Linux would be great. I have a N7 (2013). < anything that supports that would be great, and a quick guide on how to install Java to the rom?
I was also wondering if Ubuntu Touch would support such a thing?
Would help me so much with me endeavour to entertain myself when I'm away from home.
Thanks!
Hello there,
I am looking for a Android TV box with vanilla stock android. Are there any available and for sale? I tried searching everywhere but could not find any. The reason I am looking for one is, because I am looking for a development machine and deployment machine for apps. The machine will have to work with different hardware (USB) and I will have to recompile the kernel and need to modify HID drivers anytime.
Most distributions on AMlogic devices make use of custom kernels and some modifications are just plain bad and half done, not to mention the half rooted quirkiness on some devices with modified rom versions.
So is there an TV Box like device available with clean vanilla android out of the box? I really hope someone could help me with my search.
Thanks in advance and really appreciate this community.
I've recently bought a surface go for school (64gb emmc, 4gb ram model) and I love the pen and the build quality however i found windows to be way to slow on a device like this and decided to try android. android-x86_64-8.1-r2 installed fine and it runs great on this hardware except for a few issues such as camera, auto rotate and the like. I've run into a pre-made kernel that fixes these issues and will link it below. I was wondering if someone could help me with implementing this kernel into android x86 to get the full set of features working. Thanks in advance!
Kernel:
(On github) /jakeday/linux-surface/releases
Could you tell me how you implemented that pre-made kernel into Android x86? I'm trying to do the same thing with Bliss OS 11.10 (Kernel 4.19), but I really don't know how. I could have missed something on the GitHub page, but I don't know how to implement a kernel into Android. To be honest, I never implemented a Linux kernel into an OS.
I hope you read this even though it's already been a few months.
Thank you
