Manjaro Linux for Amlogic S922 devices - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

Hello, it is me again, testing something interesting on my Ugoos AM6 device.
A Group of developers called F.K. Tech Team have been posted distributives for different Amlogic SoCs.
They have managed to run XFCE and KDE Linux builds on mentioned SoCs.
I have managed to run both of them, but for KDE I had some problems with WIFI, so XFCE is more interesting for me.
The basic process to start distributive is simple:
1. Download archive with needed build from the F.K. Tech Mirror
(I put the link for Ugoos but you can find other devices on their website)
2. Burn flash drive or EMMC flash to plug in your Amlogic device.
Here I usually use balenaEtcher app for Windows PC (can easily google it)
Interface is so simple, so you need just to choose unpacked archive from the folder you have been downloaded and choose USB drive to burn (or EMMC flash)
3. Plug in the flash drive and start your Amlogic device. Some devices start initially from your drive and some of them need to be pushed using recovery button (there is a hole in AM6's housing case for this button)
4. First run may take a time, then follow simple instructions on the screen and in the end you got your XFCE ready to rock!

However, it is common problem for such SoCs to appear here too, video acceleration has only software support. So if you would like to check 1080p videos in youtube it is better to run Android or Andrroid TV even for such powerful SoC as AMlogic S922.
Hope guys can Fix it soon. For now, particularly for Ugoos AM6 there is a bunch of Android , Android TV and DualBoot CoreElec Firmwares

[Q] Using ADB with Sony Tablet S - ICS 4.0.3.r1a

Hi, i am new to the xda developers forum and i got a question about the android debugger, since i'm clueless what to do after several hours of searching :silly:
I have an Sony Tablet S with ICS version 4.0.3.r1a (not rooted) and i want to use it for app developing.
Sadly sony does not provide drivers out of the box, so i have to search for working drivers myself. I know, they provide a description of lines, you have to add to the google driver, and i have tried two different methods to get adb working, but my devices still does not show up in the adb devices list.
method 1 (automated driver installer): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488822
method 2 (google driver modification): http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/suppo...=684a6e492d1523ff4081def0a00b48a1&info_id=878
The device seems to use the driver, since it shows up as Android Composite ADB Interface in the devmgmt, but it still does not show up in the adb devices list.
Here some Facts about my os and settings:
My PC:
OS: Win7 ultimate x64
adb-version: 1.0.29
google usb-driver version: 7.0.0.1
My Tablet:
Android-Version: ICS 4.0.3.r1a
USB-Debugging is enabled
Other sources for apps are allowed
here some pictures of my file contents & devices:

My head is smoking atm, so i hope you know more about drivers and adb as i do and maybe someone of you had the same problem and can help me, i would be really greatful.
So long,
r3bel
Finally i found a solution of my problem...
As simple as it was, i could kick myself ... the driver seems to have a problem with my usb 3.0 controller, the adb finds the device if it is plugged into a usb 2.0 port.
maybe this helps others who have the same problem
I had same problem (it was working before) and I did system restore to get it to work.
Then I could able to root my tablet.
How did you solve the usb problem?

So, this is my new project so far. I'm trying to build a tool to help all Android Wear devices with simple tasks. At the moment, this is the initial release and I'll keep it updated.
What's inside the package?
Java Application: you can run it from any platform, Windows, Mac, Linux,...
A folder called "lib" including adb,fastboot for Windows & Mac. If using Linux, you need to find your own adb and put it under "Other" folder
I'm looking forward for your feedback and suggestion. Thanks!
K thanks for this tool we want simple tool for control android touch if the touchpad is broken or damaged...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Any features suggestion will be welcome I'll take more times for the next release:
Threading: not blocking main UI anymore
More fastboot & recovery functions
How about a one click unlock bootloader/root watch!? :good:

Hi tdiddy.2, i'm trying to enable adb over wifi on android wear. I have managed to make it work, but theres a lot of steps because you need to connect over bluetooth first. I know thats probably a way to enable adb over wifi direct over adb shell, but i dont know how to use adb shell well. Maybe you want to contribute? Thanks in advance.

I have two of these... wonderful /s devices. both ended up in a bad way. One was OTA update that nuked it and the other was me playing with it. :crying:
Years go by and every so often I see if they can be salvaged, but to no avail. Recovery is working, holding the reset button does nothing; just a blaack screen and then the tv turns off due to no signal. Finally a break through, the USB Burning Tool provided by Amlogic. After a ton of trial and error and the destruction of two many usb cables; i was able to find the combo to restore the both systems.
WARNING
This is not an upgrade guide. This is a use at your own risk, get this thing working, hail mary kinda thing. I cant help or guarantee anything, just after countless hours of seeing unanswered forum posts and scattered info, i had to do something. Again, AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Reqs:
USB MALE A to MALE A
Havit 2-Feet USB 2.0 Type A Male to Type A Male Cable, Black (1pack)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UF8SEA0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
(attempted making my own, but neither functioned properly)
Amlogic USB Burning Tool v2.1.6.8
update_minim8s_rv104L03.img
http://www.mediafire.com/file/clodv5h2c8c5y9c/oct_M8S-II_RecoveryPack.7z/file
(both are 7zipped in this location)
extract the .img file and burning tool to the desktop.
Install the burning tool, the driver should also install.
import .img into tool, leave all settings default.
connect usb, in my case i had to connect the power cord as well.
press start
install takes about 8 minutes. after it finishes let it sit for another 3-5 minutes, (why not!)
click stop, disconnect usb and then power if needed.
connect to hdmi and plug back in - should be about 10 to be back in the os
REMOTE MAY OR MAY NOT WORK! one did one didnt, idk, im not a doctor.
Hopefully this helps someone else with a bricked device.
I tried a ton of other images floating around out there, but none did the trick. this got me back into the os and operational.
FOLLOW UP
Was able to get Batocera 5.10 running.
burn image to sd card or usb.
Copy dtb.img into boot folder
profit.

Stable tutorial for first-timer to maintain an Essential PH-1?

Hello, I've never gone beyond entering developer mode on any of my phones, looking around carefully, then turning that mode off. I own two PH-1 phones, one is in full time service, and I would like to know of a tutorial / step-by-step to do what I need to do to maintain this phone with the images (ROMs?) that are being maintained and updated. I don't need the phone to do anything other-worldly, just keep it updated.
This is the only forum on here I'm allowed to post to, because I've been a listen-only member for a couple years but have never posted. I've just started using Ubunto 20.04 on a new laptop so I can get away from Windows, but I still have a Win7Pro laptop.
Thanks for your recommendations on how to get started -- safely started -- and how to learn what I need to learn.
Also, I just read some of the read-me-first stickys, and please allow this to also be my "Say Hi" email...
"MP"
PS -- I get a captcha, check it, get the green checkmark, but I see *no* image... I'm using firefox w/ NoScript (all scripts enabled for this tab), on an Ubuntu 20.04 laptop.
So no one cares to reply? Did anyone read it besides myself? Whiskeytangofoxtrot

If phone's Android OS isn't an A/B-partition-layout-system - what I believe because its Stock ROM is Android 7.1. - then updating a phone's Android requires phone's boot-loader is unlocked. This must get enabled within phone's Developer options - keyword: OEM unlock - what simply sets phone's unlock ability flag to 1 . Additionally it's necessary that ADB ( read: Android Debug Bridge ) gets enabled in phone's Developer options - keyword: USB debugging.

Please help me w/ Windows Subsystem for Android

If anyone would be willing to help me troubleshoot the cause of these Hypervisor Errors, I would be eternally grateful. I've never asked anyone to help with this kind of ****, so take it easy on me for not knowing the etiquette.
Anyways, I'm running Windows 11 Pro (Ghost Spectre) from a custom bootable with Partition Master and a bunch of tools to save the rig if the ship goes down, which it usually does not, but I keep trying to get this one back in the win column and failing. Basically, I can run/play anything with no issues, Windows Updates are fine, and I get to the point where I feel comfortable trying to install WSA again, even though after 9 or 10 attempts with fresh installs of Windows (Both legit isos from Insider and the custom), it always crashes the same way.
1. I activate SVM in the Bios (MSI 970a-G43 Plus)
2. I remove the very minimal overclock settings I run before saving and exiting bios en route to first boot with WSA installed
3. Windows hits the desktop, I move the mouse maybe an inch or two (sometimes it takes a second for the bad part)
4. The system is locked up like if you ran 500% disk and cpu it just doesn't register any actions
5. BSOD labeled Hypervisor Error
And the kicker for me is that even with Hypervisor Platform off, and Virutalization Platform on instead, I still get the same Hypervisor Error.
Please harass me for any information, I made cookies. Love you guys. Sorry for the format. XD
I have in addition to having Developer Mode enabled in Windows Settings also both the Virtual Machine Platform and the Windows Hypervisor Platform features enabled and rebooted computer afterwards. Resume: WSA perfectly works for me.

Gost Spectre isn't official Windows 11, it's a modded version of stock Windows 11. May be Gost Spectre has left off parts what Windows 11 by default has.
Root Windows 11 (Hard Mode)
THESE STEPS HAVE BEEN SIMPLIFIED FOR YOU~! FORGET THIS MESS, PLEASE CHECK OUT THE NEW WINDOWS 11 ISO I MODDED FOR ALL OF US https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/jrom-windows-10-and-11-lite-iso-plus-win11r00t-w-wsa-bundle.4392727/...
