My best advice is to try running Ubuntu in virtual box. I've done it before without much trouble on windows 7. I recommend checking out this thread for that. It's been a huge help to me in the past. And you can find video tutorials on how to build over here.
If you just wanted to compile twrp or a kernel it probably wouldn't be a problem with those specs. You're probably going to have a lot of issues trying to build an OS with a system like that though. That's simply not enough RAM. Compiling loves ram. I've ran out of memory trying to build with 8gb of RAM in virtual box before. Your CPU specs are also very important here. You'll want at least 4 cores to run the box by itself. It is very system intensive, and can easily make your host OS inoperable while running. I have the following specs, and virtual box will cripple my PC if I try to build an OS on it.
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 @3.8GHz (6 cores, 12 threads)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1050 (3gb)
Ram: 8gb DDR4 @2800MHz
6TB HDD (7200rpm)
For simple projects it's very useful, but for OS building in vitual box you really need a very beefy machine.
Languages: Linux, and lots of it. There's no way around that. You'll also need to be very familiar terminal commands. It is not for the faint of heart. I wish you luck.

I have a Windows 7 64-bit Desktop with a 3.1 GHz AMD Athlon processor, and around 4GB of RAM. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I want to learn to build android from source, but the better step-by-step guides are for ubuntu. If I were to get ubuntu, I would want to boot from a USB flash drive. Would an 8GB USB flash drive be sufficient for setting up ubuntu, the android sdk, and building a rom? Can I use my PC's harddrive for storage while ubuntu is running from the USB? I have found that Ubuntu 10.04 is recommended for android development from source. The only problem is that there are so many different downloads and files with different file sizes no matter how much I search. If someone could answer my questions and post a link with the ubuntu image, and perhaps a guide on how to install it on my usb, I would be very joyous.

you could run ubuntu live off of a usb, but it would be painfully slow. Especially when you are doing cpu/ram intensive tasks like compiling.
Id recomend doing one of the folllowing things:
First/Better option: install ubuntu onto your computer in a dualboot with windows 7
-it will be faster because it will be installed on your computer rather than having to read from the usb
-also faster because all of your cpu and ram are being dedicated to ubuntu
-some people see the word dualbooting and immediately think that its too hard but it isnt. Watch this tutorial: Click here for tutorial
Second option: install ubuntu in a virtual machine within windows 7
-this will be slower because you need to share your computers hardware with windows 7 and ubuntu at the same time
-heres a tutorial on how to do this: Click here for tutorial
Also heres the download link for ubuntu 12.10 (the newest version 64 bit): http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso
Some people say that 10.04 is better, but i know lots of devs that use 12.10.
If you still want 10.04 here it is: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso
Yup...true..you can run ubuntu live cd/pendrive but it will be really slow as said earlier.
So wat u do is to download that ubuntu image files.
Then you can use 'unetbootin' for making bootable pendrive.
And 8gb is enough(though 4 will also not be problem in anyway).
For easy installation partition your harddrive to make some 'unused' space(not free..delete the partition as ubuntu needs diffrent partition table,we don't need ntfs partition) for ubuntu.
Now install ubuntu with option 'install ubuntu alongside windows' and you are done with ubuntu part.
Now install android development kit and start working..all the best.

I will be buying a new laptop for developer purposes. I will be having a dual boot set up with linux and windows. Which linux would be ideal for all around android development, just the latest ubuntu? And windows XP or 7? And I will probably have a 250 GB hard drive, any suggestions for partition sizes for windows and linux? I will be using the windows side for personal use as well.

Ubuntu would be your best choice for compiling Android from source and overall Android development, as far as what version you can use the latest version of Ubuntu 13.04 just fine if you follow this guide to setting up the development environment on Ubuntu 13.04. For the version of Windows I would definitely go with Windows 7 there is no need to use XP an more, and most program that run on XP will run just fine on Windows 7. A 250 GB hard drive is pretty small for Android development and Windows, as a complete set of builds compiled from source can take up 50 GB + of space easily. If you can get a larger hard drive I would recommend doing so, also the faster the CPU and the more RAM (I would recommend 8 GB) you have the faster compiling times will be. However if you have to go with the 250 GB hard drive (Keeping in mind formatted capacity will be less but for convenience of numbers we'll say all 250 GB is usable) I would devote around 125-150 GB to the Linux partition and the other 125-150 GB to the Windows partition.

so you would do the partitions half and half.
even if i were to get a 1tb

If you were to get a 1TB I would still do the partitions half and half, will you be using Windows for gaming or content creation? If your going to be using Windows for gaming or content creation what I might do is split the storage 60-70% Windows and and 30-40% Linux which would still give you approximately 250 GB of Linux partition space.

Windows XP is really out of date. Modern hardware is not going to be supported very well. Sure you can use it, but I woudln't suggest it for daily. Windows 8 isn't new anymore and most of the workarounds have been devised... no reason to stay 7.
I strongly suggest you investigate your laptop choices as to how easily the hard drive can be swapped in/out. Even one with a DVD/Blu-Ray on a bay that can take a second hard drive. It's ideal to keep the Windows on it's own drive and let you have as many Linux installs you want. Go all GPT partitions these days and I suggest learning EFI if you are going to be a developer
A Small SSD - like 128GB can be $100 or less these days and it's amazing how fast you can copy and duplicate a Linux install and have a GRUB2 menu with many Linux systems. Linux can easily run in a 12GB or 16Gb partition if you put your home and dev stuff on a common working partition. (Fedora 18/19, Ubuntu 13.04, etc). And start to work with virtual machines
Hard drive swapping is so much better than the endless time people spend trying to correct screwed-up Linux installs. it can make playing with new releases fun and easy without worry of trashing your everyday OS install.
Hello,
I'm on installing multiple OS'es an older Netbook, an Acer Aspire One ZG5 Series, model AOA110 with Single Core Atom CPU N270, 1.5GB RAM and 160GB HDD.
For the Multi-OS Boot, I using BootIt BM 1.48 and run already Windows 10 Pro 1803, Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows XP Pro with no problems. All those OSA'es are running on the same HDD (160GB) on its own partitions and I've still some 52GB of space free on that HDD which I would like to use for Android OS.
IU have to add that I use the special Partition system of BootIt BM which is called EMBRM.
My question simply is: Is there any user here on the forum who has some experiences with BootIt BM and installation of mixed OS'es, include Android?
Thanks a lot for any info.
No One??
Is BootIt BM really unknown by all?
Thanks
Hello,
I just got as a present an Acer One S1003 and it's on Windows 10 and I don't like it. Cannot return it (don't ask why pls), but I managed to install Android 7.0 on it. Now the issue I have is that it doesn't find the driver for Wifi and G Sensor. Everything else works, sound and all, but I can't enable Wifi or Autorotate.
Tried to find the drivers on Google but I could only find the Windows 10 ones.
Please help me to find some drivers or let me know if I need to install a different version of Android.
Thank you,
Daniel
on android 8.1 and 9 wifi is working but don't work g sensor and i can only run android x86 8.1 with no hardware acceleration. Can't normal start android. I don't know what is with x64 because this s.h.i.t of tablet supports only UEFI 32 bit, NO 64 bit and NO legacy mode, but processor is 64 bit and have 4 gb memory. Someone in acer is very very creative processor x64 4 GB memory and only support UEFI 32 bit my mind can't understand it :/
Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (Snapdragon 865).I have successfully managed to install and run Windows XP Professional 64-Bit and Xubuntu 18.04 i686 (32-Bit) on my phone with Limbo PC Emulator.
It runs without any issues but it is very slow as Limbo can only use a single core of my 8 core phone. I can't use KVM to use all 8 cores because I want to run x86 or x64 OS and not any arm OS (KVM only works if my device is of the same architecture as the emulated guest).
I just want to run Windows 10 (32 or 64 bit) on my phone with native performance (If possible). Is this possible or have my dreams gone too far? I am ready to even root my phone (or even to risk soft or even hard bricking my phone).
Thanks A Lot (in advance)
@DeveloperWithBrains
With regards to run Windows 10 in Limbo emulator:
Set
CPU-cores to 4
RAM to at least 1 GB ( if 32bit ) and/or to at least 2 GB ( if 64bit )
