Thanks for posting.
I had wanted to try this a long back but I thought that the screen would be too small to use.
What's your opinion, having used it on this 3.2" screen?
Is it usable? And is it useful?
As for hooking it up to a computer screen, you can try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.onaips.vnc&hl=en
Droid VNC Server
Normally, it gives you access to the Android OS which then you could use to access Ubuntu but it may also be possible to directly access Ubuntu which then would be perfect! Give it a try and let us know.

Thank you!
That's what i'm looking for, tnx.

Is it possible to create a script for this?? I'm currently looking up on how to create scripts, and using Script Manager to run it..
Would be nice to have a shortcut that runs ubuntu without inputing the commands to Terminal.
Thought i hardly have any programming background/knowledge.. I'm not even sure if its possible..
Maybe someone can shed some light on the subject?
Thanks!

[RECOVERY] TWRP 2.2.2.1 for MyTouch 4G

This recovery.img is EXPERIMENTAL and for testing purposes only.
By flashing, you take full responsibility for your device!
This recovery was compiled using CM9 sources and twrp sources.
I have not fully tested this recovery for bugs. Find any let me know.
in bootloader fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp2.2.2.1-glacier-recovery.img

Recovery Information
NOTE:
Twrp is an open source project.
TWRP HOME PAGE
I do not take credit for creating this recovery.
Mad props to team win for creating this and making it open sourced.
I only compiled it to be compatible for use on this device.
SOURCES
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23903-how-to-compile-twrp-from-source/
https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/
https://github.com/CyanogenMod
Introduction:
Team Win Recovery Project 2.2, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Features:
Ability to save custom recovery settings
Touchscreen driven with real buttons and drag-to-scroll
XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout – true theming!
Settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots
Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore
Ability to choose to compress backups – now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)

[APP] Flash Image GUI - Flash Kernels and Recoveries from normal Android mode!

Flash Image GUI allows the flashing of kernels and custom recovery images from normal android mode!
Credits:
birbeck for the usual random java guidance, slushpupie for his previous java guidance, dodgejcr for extreme amounts of testing, and one_love_420 and shift for some great graphics!
testers: JT-, couga6442, happytweak and many others I might have forgot in the furry of three days I built the initial app from scratch.!
Thanks to SDX
Background:
flash_image (bmlwrite) is an extremely useful utility for flashing custom kernels, boot logos (so far ONLY Samsung devices) and recoveries. This binary has made it possible to easily flash all these items and is used almost everywhere behind the scenes (i.e. in custom recoveries, packaged into kernel /sbin, etc).
Description:
This android application, FlashImageGUI, is basically a GUI interface for the linux binary, flash_image provided by google in AOSP for loading custom kernels and recovery images onto the phone.
This app allows the flashing of kernels and custom recovery images in normal android mode!
Current Device Support:
Full Kernel, Logo and Recovery flashing: Samsung Moment, Transform, Intercept and Acclaim - the s3c6410 series of devices
Full Kernel (Anykernel and boot.img) Flashing and Recovery (zip file or image) flashing: Nexus 4, Nexus 10, Nexus 7, Samsung Google Galaxy Nexus (GSM & CDMA), Nexus S/Nexus S 4G, HTC One XL, One S, EVO 4G LTE, EVO 3D CDMA and GSM, Amaze, Vivid/Holiday, EVO 4G, EVO Shift, & LG Optimus
Custom Recovery
Supports both CWM and TWRP!
Future Support:
Will continue to test kernels as they are released to ensure compatibility!
Install Directions:
Install process is the same as any other .apk. Download to computer and adb push or mount sdcard on computer and copy over or download directly to the phone. Use any file manager, adb, connectbot/terminal emulator to install.
My preferred method, maybe a bit technical: ./adb install c:\downloads\FlashImageGUI.apk
Download Locations
Market (99 cents!): Flash Image GUI
Release version (free): Flash Image GUI
Contact:
Any questions, comments, concerns, or issues, please post in this thread or send me an email! Thanks for all the help and support!

Feedback:
Please post any helpful feedback. I'm always looking to improve the application!
Basic Troubleshooting:
Troubleshooting after Rebooting:
First step, when experiencing issues flashing is to RE FLASH the files again. Many times, re flashing again will clear up any issues. If not, see the issues/solutions below.
Issue #1: If the device hangs or reboots while on the splash screen, the kernel (or packaged ramdisk in the kernel) is NOT compatible with your device!!!
Solution for #1: Have to boot into fastboot and load the custom recovery to flash a known good kernel or restore a previously known good nandroid backup. Command: fastboot boot c:\downloads\cwm-recovery.img
Issue #2: If the device hangs or reboots while on the boot animation, the ROM is likely NOT compatible with the kernel!!!
Solution for #2: Have to boot into fastboot and load the custom recovery to flash a known good ROM/kernel combination either from a zip file or restore from a nandroid backup.

[Windows/Linux][Source]Optimus G All in One Root/Unlock

Hello everyone.
I have created an AIO tool for the Sprint LG Optimus G. (G AIO, or GAIO).
I am trying to spur up more people to get interested in rooting and unlocking their devices to get more action around here. I have coded this AIO tool quickly to help those who can not find root/unlock information, are too lazy to do it, or don't know how to use it.
The AIO tool supports both Linux and Windows (Not sure about Mac OS X, please don't test on Mac because I won't know the outcome).
The tool supports both unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device via Linux AND Windows. The AIO tool is programmed in Java to allow that to happen.
Before I continue, I would like to point out I did not make the unlock/root methods.
Credits for the Root method:
Bin4y
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Credits for the Unlock method:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002984
Here is a screenshot of the program under Windows:

}
I have released the source to Github for all to see and use:
https://github.com/The-Shadow/lg_optimus_g_aio/
Current Version: 1.50
Download:
gaio.dark-hosting.net
Changelog:
Code:
1.50:
Fixed root detection bug
Automate root scripts. You no longer have to press '1' to activate the scripts
Add confirmation dialog for rooting, unlocking, installing recovery etc.
Fixed bug where adb server was not killed on application close
Fixed deleting temporary files on exit
Added software version check to check if device is supported. ZV9 added to unsupported list at the time
Updated Bin4y root scripts to v18
Modified those root scripts to work automatically
Added JSON library. Example of use, http://gaio.dark-hosting.net/gaio/recovery.json Allows for dynamic elements in program
Added recovery installer! Needs internet connection. Currently supports TWRP and clockwork
Added element to check if device bootloader is unlocked
Add boot restore function! Restore your boot.img if you flashed a bad kernel. Requires internetc connection
Added automatic LG Driver installer. Requires internet connection
LG Installer will check if Windows driver is installed, if not, gracefully ask the user to install it.
Added an update function. This only checks for an update if you are connected to the internet
The update is checked on start, once, in the background and only annoys you if you are out of date
Update Swing GUI threading the correct way, since Swing is not thread safe
Fixed many graphical errors
Fixed some exceptions
Fixed many other random bugs and cleaned up some code
1.00:
Initial Release
Future Additions:
Remove Root
Remove Unlock
Implement Reboot menu (recovery, bootloader etc.)
I hope this is useful for some people, my intention was to centralize and ease the rooting and unlocking process. I am sorry if the program doesn't work for your specific computer. I am also sorry if my code is a little unorganized, as this was made rather quickly.

Thanks bro i haven't rooted yet still waiting on this update ( jellybean ) too come ... fingers crossed
But when i do i will def use this. THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK AND TIME BRO.

Just dl'd and saved as a zip. Extracted zip. Can't figure out how to run AIO
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

It is not a zip file. It is a .jar file. You need Java installed to run it. If you are on windows you should be able to open it by double clicking.

EDIT: that worked thank you again

[RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP Touch Recovery 2.8.5.0 \\ 07.04.15

Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind.

-Add new SliderValue GUI element for selecting brightness and screen timeout (thanks to Tassadar)
-Re-work AOSP and TWRP code to improve license compatibility between GPL and Apache

Hey Coderzs, thanks for this but I think zyGh0st told me he compiled this too a while ago. It doesn't really matter though cause in the end its the same thing

WOW thanks. I was someone wishing someone would make this just so I could play it cause I use 4ext. Thanks again for taking your time to keep our device alive.

Thank you coderz. I found a problem when flashing kernels, something about superuser. I'll give you more details later after I catch a few Z's :3

This is awesome thanks for making this.
Small question: you can flash a recovery from a recovery? I thought you had to flash an IMG file from fastboot...

@coderzs if you get a chance, could you update this to 2.6? I normally wouldn't ask this sort of thing but having encrypted backups is cool! And of course bug fixes
