Hey, i wan't to know how can i have an adblock on ubuntu touch, maybe a hosts file with already blocked
Sent from my awesome Ubuntu Touch device using the Forum Browser app
Unfortunately this thread is the first Google hit on "ubuntu phone adblock". Even less fortunate is that I also don't have a solution, yet, other than using a hosts-file to block advertising domains, which is not really sufficient.
I wish Firefox would run on the Ubuntu Phone.
Yes maybe but i found a solution if you have an android rooted phone just install adblock for android or adaway, update hosts file and copy this on your ubuntu phone at /etc and normaly it's done

How to copy?
Just recently purchased Ubuntu phone.
How do you copy the host file to /etc/.
Regular sudo doesn't work. Couldn't figure it out how to mount filesystem as rw.
Any ideas?

It works for me. You're most likely to get the best possible advice if you are as descriptive as you possibly can. At the least verbatim copies of the commands you entered and what the result was.
Now there is this solution : https://uappexplorer.com/app/uadblock.mariogrip

Coming from the world of apple iphone I am learning everything new here. One thing I loved about iphone was the ability to use WinSCP to modify root files. I understand that this can be done on the phone with in andriod but I have big hands and find it easier to use Winscp and mouse to navigate files on the phone.
Note: Mod if this in wrong section please help move
*Prerequisites: ROOT
*Tools required: SSHDROID (from market place it is free). Winscp
Install SSHDROID
Install WInscp (your pc will restart after install)
Connect your phone to your local wifi
open sshdroid, allow SUPER USER
in winscp type in ip address of phone (can be found by going to with in sshdriod screen)
Default User name is "root"
Default Password is "admin"
recommend changing... both user name and password
USer name can be change when first logging in winscp, password can be change with in SSHDROID in setting.
there you go you can now explor root files with in winscp with mouse and keyboard.
update : pictures of it working
nice, i never really bothered with this before, but its a good idea and probably worth the short amount of time required for setup, i'll try this later.
Yeah, Thanks... I remember when I came over from icrap, I was looking for a way to SSH, but gave up and just used rootexplorer for everything, and adb. This will definitely help though, especially since I like to edit the build prop on the pc.
**Edit**
Works great... so much easier to browse now. IMO
does this work to show system files? I use Samba Filesharing from the market to view my files through integrated windows networking (samba), but the system files don't show, just the sdcard.

Yes, he says it displays root files, and system files fall under that. I haven't tested myself so I can't personally testify but I'd be inclined to trust the OP on that.

I can confirm that using SSHDroid in combination with WinSCP, will preserve the file time stamp (modified date) when copying files from Windows to Android 2.3.5 or Android 4.4.2. Most copy methods will update the file time stamp. (I don't think it makes any difference but both of the devices were rooted.)

It's a Linux distribution.. like Ubuntu..
Does this mean we can then VNC into it after turning the server on?
How much has been tested on it?
Sounds cool. Read up ln it a little as I wondered at first what it was also. THEY say it's good but the main drawback is the short lifespan and support of each version. AS they pump out new versions like every 6 months or so n support for it is one of the shortest. SO it makes it hard for developers to use since its not long term.
Plus I never knew there was like a million flavors of Linux..lol. not even funny how many different flavors there was while reading up on Fedora.
Wait, can we actually use fedora on the prime this way through a script? How is functionality? We can simply shut it down again or something...?
More details would be nice Might give it a try later if I know/understand more about it hehe.

Im trying to install fedoa on a rooted tf201. Downloaded tar.gz2, attempted to extract to 'data/local/fedora' but i could not extract it. Anyone have any luck with fedora on the prime?
Fedora 17 alpha image: http://fedora.roving-it.com/rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar.bz2
This is interesting, I nee to RMA mine for a few issues and hold off on unlock/root until I get a satisfactory prime but I'm excited.
One this though I too heard about the short lifespans, is this a bad thing? I only ask because projectors in theaters run fedora so I would assume they must be ultra stable with the shortened lifespan of each release, unless they update after every release. Just interesting to me.
I have a functinal rooted tf201 with root, busybox, xorg (as far as I know) through Linux Installer, VNC Viewer, Terminal Emulator and OTA Rootkeeper. I have a fair amount of root & bash experience, so I'd be delighted to help the OP with writing a walkthrough of the VNC server-client process in the specific case of Yum based distros and Fedora's rootfs structure.

One this though I too heard about the short lifespans said:
I view it as a bonus. You will find that at any time there are at least 2 versions being supported and although I use Ubuntu/Debian I would think that that Fedora enables users to upgrade from the previous to current version with a mouse click or two and 200Mb of downloads - just as easy as Windows but with more control (and bugs get fixed in hours!).

I have noticed that many people have had issues rooting their phone, especially recently. And i have also gotten tired of typing or copying the root method over and over after flashng in RSD and loosing root.
In response to that i have taken it upon myself to write a script for automating a majority of the process for all of us, making the process swifter than before. However this is not a one click root there are many steps nessecary to root our device. All i have done is wiritten a script to automate a majority of the process.
I will only test one version of the script, the ubuntu 12.10 version, because thats the only operating system i run and its easiest to test this one. i will leave the other versions to other people and to post issues with them as they arise so i may fix them
there are several versions of the script
*Ubuntu - 12.10 and up
*Ubuntu generic - 10.04-12.04
*Linux generic - any version of linux
*Windows bat file - Must download Motorola drivers
*Android - NEW ALPHA!! can actually be run from another rooted phone or tablet!! Scripts for general use coming soon! Testers are welcome! Check out the second post for details.
each version has the nessecary files to root your phone and including the script
These are not flash able scripts these must be uncompressed and run on a computer
Oh and feed back is more than welcome im not an expert at writing scripts or any sort of write up but i will do my best to fix any flaws or add suggestions.

Ah, wow. Thank you so much for this. I didn't root my Milestone X2 2.3.6 on ACS Wireless for 6 months because I was afraid of breaking it (again.) I wish this was around a few months ago
Hopefully this helps everyone root their phone in a much easier and safer way.
By the way.. Does anyone have any suggestions on a working MX2 2.3.6 ROM? I'm still using stock, and I hate it.
there aren't any roms based on 2.3.6, doubt we will see any soon

Try eclipse its not 2.3.6 based but it runs wonderfully on the mx2. As for the script its mostly an untested product. I've runt the Ubuntu 12.10 one once with little issue but the rest I haven't tried. Just remember its a two part script that requires the running of both pieces to work.
As to having a rom 2.3.6 based there really is no point we have fully functional roms that run beautiful with what we have not to mention that there's no real point in going back if we get a kexec or second boot working as further versions are going to be based off of a newer kernel and version of android.

I'm glad it was able to help. I tried to make certain things more autonomous but unfortunately it does have to be specific, and handled as such. So there's not a lot of flexability in how the process is done by the user and by the script itself.

Hum I wonder what broke the windows script. Um really its up to you I can try to tear it apart and see if what's wrong but I'd need specific information from you in what's happening. But I'm a better Linux script writer so the Linux scripts are a bit more stable. Ubuntu 12.04 and up is best because the repositories have adb and fastboot included and can be installed. Both of which the script requires to run but any of the linux ones should work.

Did you upgrade using the system settings update mechanism? That won't be blocked and the update will seem to work, but things will break after some time, just like your dual boot, especially when you start installing custom packages.
Theoretically, the application should work, but you're going to have to set up XMir properly to run X applications. If you are interested in doing that, the guy who made this video is the one who can tell you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3PUYoa1c9M

I'm sorry for you killing your boot sector. Were you able to set up everything again?
I tried the chroot method some time ago but you still need to install the necessary packages for that using apt-get. So you need a writable system again...
You could, however, try to package the apps as a click package yourself. I've never tried that and I don't know of anyone who did, but if you ship xmir and the application in a click package, it should work.
I just had to reinstall and re-root was good really because got it set up right now.
I'm did a emulated rw and compiled lifeograph from source that it might work but it wont connect to mir using cmake there must be a use flag or ill look are cross compiling maybe.. Does it create a click package or a deb ? Ill take a poke around in apt cache to look at packages already cached from install

Great that you got it sorted out.
There's a trick to get the app working on Mir: Lifeograph is an app for the X window system. To make it run with Mir, there's a software called Xmir. Check out whether it's in the repos. If not, the source code should be online somewhere.
The app is probably going to compile as a debian package though. Either you stay with your phone in rw mode or you look into packaging it as a click package. The latter might be a little bit more difficult.

Ignore my posted screenshot above. I got it resolved by moving the RMXTools folder to the desktop instead of my secondary hard drive.
@lollyjay, xSilverlight thanks for your help guys. It worked. I am using Solid Explorer as my File Manager and although it is no longer showing by default, I can always add it to bookmark for easy access.

thanks again. however, i ended up rolling back to 403 64bit. 3.0 seems slow and laggy in my system. 8ball pool crashes too :/ will wait for a better update.
edit fstab.remix_x86，fstab.remix_x86_64，https://source.android.com/devices/storage/config.html
cd /sys/dev/block ，ls -al，cd /sys/block
example fstab
none /cache tmpfs nosuid,nodev,noatime defaults
/devices/*/usb*/* auto auto defaults voldmanaged=sdcard1:auto,encryptable=userdata
/devices/platform/*/mmc* auto auto defaults voldmanaged=sdcard1:auto,encryptable=userdata
/devices/*/* auto auto defaults voldmanaged=sdcard1:auto,encryptable=userdata
I don't HDD should /device/platform/……，you can cd /sys/block，ls -al
