Basically, I have a kindle fire that uses a form of the android OS and was wondering if there was a way I could run similar apps on my Ubuntu system. Specifically I'd like the news reader program "Pulse".  Anybody know if such an emulator or workaround exists?

I would like to run Ubuntu on my new Thinkpad E470. Is Nvidia Optimus supported? It used to be that you would have to run the proprietary drivers with the dGPU enabled always instead of using the iGPU. Has the situation improved, especially regarding battery life? If possible I would just run with the iGPU as I don't plan to do any gaming. Would I just refrain from installing the proprietary driver to achieve this?

I'm new to Ubuntu. What's the application extension for development reasons? I know Windows is mainly .exe and Mac is .dmg or .app. Does Linux have an unique one?

I try to run Android from SD-card. This card is prepared. There are partitions: boot(FAT32), rootfs(ext4), system(ext4), cache(ext4) and usedata(ext4). Boot partitions has files to run u-boot: MLO, u-boot.bin and uImage. To run it I use commands  mmcinit 0 fatload mmc 0 0x80000000 uImage setenv bootargs 'console=ttyO2,115200n8 mem=456M@0x80000000 mem=512M@0xA0000000 init=/init vram=10M omapfb.vram=0:4M androidboot.console=ttyO2 root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 rw rootwait rootfstype=ext4' bootm 0x80000000   Than I see how Linux starts. But after few seconds on step of loading rootfs I see an error message  [    4.015655] EXT4-fs (mmcblk1p2): couldn't mount RDWR because of unsupported optional features (400) [    4.036499] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk [    4.079986] List of all partitions: [    4.083801] b300        31162368 mmcblk0  driver: mmcblk [    4.089660]   b301             128 mmcblk0p1 f9f21f00-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.097839]   b302             256 mmcblk0p2 f9f21f01-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.106018]   b303             128 mmcblk0p3 f9f21f02-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.114288]   b304           16384 mmcblk0p4 f9f21f03-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.122436]   b305              16 mmcblk0p5 f9f21f04-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.130676]   b306            8192 mmcblk0p6 f9f21f05-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.138916]   b307            8192 mmcblk0p7 f9f21f06-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.147094]   103:00000     524288 mmcblk0p8 f9f21f07-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.155334]   103:00001     262144 mmcblk0p9 f9f21f08-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.163574]   103:00002   30342128 mmcblk0p10 f9f21f09-a8d4-5f0e-9746-594869aec34e [    4.171874] b310            2048 mmcblk0boot1  (driver?)

I've built an ubuntu touch app, it works well on desktop, but when I install it on the device and try to launch, it crashes. Where can I find error logs or any other output that the app can give me to figure out what's wrong?

In my Android I have "Whatsapp" application running. But mobile freak I am not, and specially the mobile keyboards.  So how can I run my same application, same account from my Ubuntu desktop PC?   Follow up:  Just to do keyboard routing, i have used . Which allows me to takeover the Android input fields access via web link to type in my PC keyboard, and then it re-route the keys to Mobile.  Features:   Allows me to copy and paste large texts to Android input fields without using the keyboard of Android but simply using my Desktop PC, via web link http://android.ip.address.goes.here:port/ Allows me to have key submit which is similar to key press of mobile set itself   At-least works without having mobile in rooted. Hope it helps you!!

I keep hearing that this is a huge no-no. Why is this? I run Ubuntu mostly so it doesn't affect me, but I was just wondering.

Is is possible to download older versions of Android applications?   Is there some kind of online archive for all versions of Android apps? Like how you can find older versions of some Windows app.

What all needs to be done to install Android SDK / ADT Bundle on Ubuntu?  Each of the steps in the answer was found on some different forum as I encountered obstacles getting started with my Android SDK and posted questions in appropriate forums thereafter. So I thought this would be useful in that it is a one stop solution available, in case one ever needs to re-install Ubuntu and install the Android SDK / ADT Bundle from scratch!

I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 and I have installed Android SDK, set it's path in my user .bashrc and it works.  The problem is that my phone requires adb to be ran by root for permissions, but running adb with sudo I get the following error:  sudo: adb: command not found  I tried to simply use sudo -E adb start-server, but it doesn't work. Tried to add the export path line to /root/.bashrc and (after realizing it didn't help) to /etc/bash.bashrc.  I remember I could set it on my Arch Linux, but I guess my problem now is connected to Ubuntu root account not behaving like I expect it.    What I don't understand is the following:  These don't work:  martin@alyx:~$ sudo adb devices sudo: adb: command not found   This does (typing the full path):  martin@alyx:~$ sudo /opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb devices * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 * * daemon started successfully * List of devices attached  CM7-Blade   device   This doesn't work (using -E with sudo):  martin@alyx:~$ sudo -E adb devices sudo: adb: command not found   This works (as root):  martin@alyx:~$ sudo su root@alyx:/home/martin# adb devices List of devices attached  CM7-Blade   device   I'm totally confused now and I'd appreciate some clarifying on how to set a path for sudo or how else I could solve my problem.  (And please, don't say adb shouldn't be ran as root.)  Thanks in advance!  Edit: By requiring root permissions I mean that I need them because otherwise I get:  $ adb devices  List of devices attached  ????????????    no permissions   which doesn't occur as superuser. Sorry if it was misunderstanding.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 Beta 2. Is there a way, or a place, to give feedback on this system? Not file bugs, just give feedback.

in our company we developed an android app installed on nexus 7 tablets and on tablet we release to several customers. This app stays in foreground active 24/7 but we have problems in monitoring  the devices due to the restrictive access policies of unrooted Android devices.   We can't for example reboot the device remotely.  We are evaluating the possibility of installing Ubuntu touch to replace android on this tablets. Does Ubuntu touch offer more freedom for the remote access of the device? May I do remotely everything I could do normally with the tablet?   Moreover, are the apps developed with ubuntu sdk stable enough to run 24/7?  Thanks
