LG KS20 on Linux ??? ( LiMo )

Hi everybody , I was on youtube when i saw that video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1etbtava-g
Any info ???

No info but it looks awesome, it seems to be really smooth, I would love to have something like that on my KS20!

I found this
http://www.limofoundation.org/
Do you think that we can flash our KS20 with this OS ?
My english is not good , so please excuse me if I made some mistakes

someone got more information about this ?! looks very interesting but i cant find much about it via google and co.
greetz

limo its a project, this video its a testdrive demonstaration.

I found our phone (LG KS20) at here
http://www.limofoundation.org/en/limo-handsets.html
LG LiMo phone

^^ I think that's our KS20 with LiMo inside
I hope that we can also have it !!
I'm trying to boot android on my KS20 but i don't find one android release which boot arf =(
If someone can try to compile a new release of android which boot on KS20 , it will be great
Sorry for my bad english :$

Android | LiMo @ LG KS20
YOHA.. would be time to get rid of that WM6.1 from my LG KS20..
But, wait, LiMo is completely another thing than Android..
And besides that, I'm also pretty sure that Linux does work on the LG KS20, there is anyhow no trace of users able to do so in the wild till now..
So this means that either Android than some LiMo adehrent version should be available around: afaik there are no traces of such images or even help to build from sources..
Is this right or do somebody of you have some links/hints?
Maybe the closest relative to this is anyhow the HTC based Android compilations found in this forum (Vougue and Phantom..), maybe starting from them somehow..
But if someone has updates.. please do some postings here!
Cheers,

Hi everyone
After a hole night of compilation , i've obtain 4 files
"Generated: (out/target/product/generic/android-info.txt)
Target system fs image: out/target/product/generic/obj/PACKAGING/systemimage_unopt_intermediates/system.img
Install system fs image: out/target/product/generic/system.img
Target ram disk: out/target/product/generic/ramdisk.img
Target userdata fs image: out/target/product/generic/userdata.img"
A System.img , userdata.img , ramdisk.img and a text file android-info.txt
I don't know what to do with this files ( maybe haret ??? )
if someone would help me , it'll would be really apreciate ^^
Thanks

yuuuhuuu i'll be waitin for next info and release

Any new info on this? Willing to get rid of wm as soon as possible.

Any update ?
I'm sorry if i'm boring but if we can make linux works on our device , i think it wiil be great
as i'm a newbie , i really need help so everyone who want's to work in this project i leave my msn [email protected]
thanks you

News? (Android on LG KS20)
News? (Android on LG KS20)

I searched several times, but no traces of KS20 port of Android for the moment.
If you look at the nearest hardware device in advanced dev, you will see it's not gonna happen soon with full features :

No Android release for KS20
I'm sorry guys but it will be hard to have Android on KS20.
This LGE phone is based on MSM7200 old Qualcomm chipset at 400MHz.
Qualcomm started developing Android releases on newer MSM7200A which not only has higher clock for the ARM11 application processor, but also different architecture in terms of graphic acceleration. This means there will not be any official release compatible with KS20 in the future.
Although me and other engineers, who have access to Android and Qcom drivers code, would like to port it to this device, we are struggled by the fact that we don't have any drivers from LGE, to make all other things working (primarly camera and display). So, no way we can do it for now...
Anyway, without the benefit of having Qualcomm Adreno 3D graphic accelerator on it, it will be a pain to run Android UI on KS20!

WOW! this gives me hope!
Do you have something to download and compile.. and maybe contribute?
some LGE drivers showed up at last or what? I suppose no touchscreen working atm but anyway worth to try..

Hi, you can try to load 0.8 linux images and almost all of other initrd like angstrom etc... with earlier Htc Niki's Kernel. Unfortunately I can't login trough ssh and GPIOs detection list from Haret doesn't correspond to the ones listed in the detailed Ks20 service manual...
I'm starting a new thread and I hope to involve some people with more skill than me...

ok, let me know about that new thread and links to the material and instructions, and I'll also try to contribute.

Debugger, IDA and other Tools for Education... for beginners

http://www.ollydbg.de/
I have minor knowledge with OllyDbg... loooooong time ago...
Some Update Tools from Siemens... to catch Firmware from RAM...
Now I would like to sniff some functions from bada SDK... Simulator/Emulator...
But both Software not cooperate... Samsung protect their bada SDK...
Is it possible to use OllyDbg or other to better understand how Firmware is working?
Remember apps, RC1, etc. is in bada SDK too... not encrypted...
Please.
I need advice.
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
Edit 1.
Not solved...
But now new Threadtitle...

http://www.chip.de/downloads/IDA-Pro-Free-4.9_29744270.html
Oh, not realized...
FREE Version of IDA...
Not tested yet.
Maybe good enough for first steps...
My first tests also with limited DEMO Version of IDA:
https://www.hex-rays.com/products/ida/support/download_demo.shtml
Best Regards
Edit 1.
4.9 Version of IDA...
Now found 5.0 as FREE
http://www.computerbild.de/download/IDA-Pro-Freeware-7450735.html
Edit 2.
Demo Version is 6.4...

Problem 1...
In IDA 6.4 DEMO I can click click ARM click click and IDA do something with my ELF files...
In FREE Version 5.0 I have problems to find correct setting...
See Screenshot, this Tab is complete unusable...
Any ideas?
I'm trying to open BL3 ELF...
Best Regards

i have IDA PRO portable, see(kona.exe):
only crazy to understand this program, too complicated.

Demo of 6.4 looks identically...
Easy click click ready...
Free Versions 5.0 and 4.9 looks different in first menu...
Maybe someone can tell us how to work with FREE Version 5.0...
Thanx in advance.

[Q] Bada firmware emulator

Does anyone know if there is a way to test firmware/custom firmware via a pc emulation ?
It would be so nice to develop custom firmware.

In bada SDK... you can see Firmwarefiles... in action...
At the moment I don't know anybody. Who can emulate "whole" Firmware on PC.
Only Samsung can do this.
But maybe it is possble to tweak bada SDK...
Best Regards

Ok. I don't know how to proceed but it can be great.
Maybe someone has more knowledge on the SDK.
I will download and try to know more. Even if I have no idea where to start...

Sorry For Stupid Question ? How they are Did it ?

May be in MainMenu_Init.ini
write
Code:
MenuID9=0
MenuType9=1
AppID9=um3clj6k6j
I've tried so once, but after the splash screens there was nothing ...
(Sorry, translate google)
Best Regards

"It is not available to the public." It's what he said on his video.
I don't know what's going on now with that.

Ubuntu for Ascend P6

I notice Canonical's Ubuntu operating system is being developed to run on devices which currently run android:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
And would seem a new "experimental snapshot" of the software has been released for development and evaluation.
The link below contains the download and all instructions needed to flash a device with the software, and I was wondering if anyone with more insight into the subject than myself could advise whether we can expect to see Ubuntu come to the P6 soon or not?
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
It looks promising to me...

Our device doesn't have kernel which can support " device loop " . If have smone can build kernel with that function. We can run uBuntu or other backtrack, kali linux etc with linux deploy or linux installer complete.
Sry poor english.

Can anyone make a port?
There is a Guide on how to do it so can anyone?
Would be great!!

Windows 10??

Hi guys, this 'll probably be a stupid question but i was wondering just for interests sake can windows 10 or possibly windows 8 be installed on my 10.1 2014 edition? Any answer or info would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Windows uses x86 processors. Note runs on an ARM processor.
Why would you need a Desktop OS on a tablet anyway?

Dear @Stevethegreat , To be honest , I don't really agree with the 2nd part of your answer , It's clear that it''s x86 but it doesn't really mean that it doesn't boot on ARM devices ( I hope you don't need any more explanation ) also , Dear @Artriel , It's not really impossible to boot these on such an ARM Device AFAIK ( for example , you can google MAGLDR the bootloader which made the booting of x86 OSs on HTC LEO and esp HTC One M7 in both Win 8 was booted and the pix are out with no release ... but it's possible ( if you over look some Bugs which can get fixed with some more work ) !!!!!! :laugh: ) so what we currently need is an UEFI Bootloader which is not that easy to build and you should work as a Company ( Microsoft !!! ) so , I don't think there whould be such a release this early ... BTW , mate , there are many Awesome ROMs , Linux Booters ... go try one .... also take a look at RemixOS ... it's a good choice ... Good luck

I think they're some kind of emulation. So -yeah- technically possible to boot, but most probably slow to run.
I'm still unclear how you're planning to run x86 code (win10) on ARM (I mean without emulating).

Blown !!! .... I'm talking about my cover ...

Alright ... Thanks for blowing my cover and letting every body know it ( anyway , as you thought it's all a simulation , I got to know that you haven't tried MAGLDR ) ... about booting , to be brief , It's not that hard to make an NT / RT Kernel boot . the problem is to boot it completely and without crashes ... my goal is to make a boot loader with these features ( I know it's hard to understand How it's going to be done but here's a brief note of the Bold features of the project :
# When you boot the Device , instead of the ugly " GALAXY Note 10.1 2014 ED " , a user interface appears allowing the user to choose the OS he want's to boot ( The UI is currently text based but the Graphical one is under development ) %% Done %%
# Boot's the Chosen OS "directly" %% Done %%
# The OS should get edited to become compatible with "the new architecture" %% Done %%
# The new boot loader enables the Installation of Win RT !!! %% WIP %%
# The new boot loader has some needed features which are essential in my opinion . %% TBD %%
# The OS is going to support Our Drivers ( Not Completely ... but almost 80% ) %% WIP %%
# The OS is going to work smooth without Speed loss %% WIP %%
** OH , How long I have written !!!! .... what a great Novel !!! .... anyway , please consider that this project is under development since 2010 !!! ... and as you know , " it's easier said than done !!! " so let Software Engineers do that ( Cuz it's not too device specific , you can have it on other devices after a small edit !!! ) ... anyway , I'll let you know more , later ... I'm currently busy applying to study abroad ...

I own a Note 10.1 like mentioned. If such a thing is possible I would dump TouchWiz instantly.
But there is substance in saying that the architecture is different between the OSes.
I just wish I could multi boot my M8 GPE with Windows 10 too...

Great Thanks for your interest , Dear friend , Tomorrow is the day for my life's first " University Enterance Exam " and I'm a bit anxious ( after 3 years of studying ) but if I do a good job about it , there is going to be some screen shots to release ... also about the booting OSes , let me tell you that currently XP ( my own main goal ) and 95 and 98 are all tested and 95% functional ( just some small WIPs which is quite natural ) but their capable for daily usage ( although the battery is not as great as in android which is quite natural ,too and was even over my personal expectations ) and I even used Office 2007 on them fully functional ( as you think for sure , it's quite old but for testing purpose , it was just fine ) and I even played Hercules ( Yep , the Old school game ... ) I just need you guys' preys to do a good job in the exam and then I'll release some screen shots ... I hope it helped !!! and made you and my other friends hopeful to P60X's developmental future ... God Help us all
With Best Wishes
