New version: ICS on IBM Thinkpad X41t
StefanS
again, I have compiled a new version of ICS 4.0.3 for the IBM Thinkpad x41t and similar devices.
These are the notable changes and limitations (a lot of credit goes to Chih-Wei!)
- much smaller image because using squashfs now
- automatic screen rotation through hdaps accelerometer reading
- is implemented correctly but some apps might work wrongly because they were designed for portrait devices, not landscape. Hopefully this will change with the rise of the Android tablets :)
- screen rotation is only correct/useful in tablet mode, tilt laptop backwards to get back to "laptop mode"
- accelerometer is calibrated during startup, so make sure the laptop is reasonably level when you boot
- mapping of screen bezel buttons
- arrows = volume up/down
- Enter = Enter/DPAD center
- ESC = back (doesn't work in all applications)
- "suitcase" = menu
- "rotation" = home (doesn't work, I might try "search" some time)
- "hidden button" = POWER (put device to sleep, but cannot wake it up again)
- Youtube app kind of works (crashes when started directly, but works fine when started from a link or from the widget)
- Maps works, but prone to crashes, esp. when starting in portrait mode (no problems when starting in landscape and then rotating to portrait) or in settings
- added Google Docs with offline support
- includes Superuser and File Manager
- can simulate SD card when not present, otherwise you will need to add "SDCARD=/dev/mmcblk0" if you want to use the real SD card slot
- no "eng" build anymore, but a "user" build, this has many implications, but most notable should be the faster applications because of dalvik optimizations and especially: no more annoying red flashes all the time!! (Don't know what these were, but they are gone). I had to disable ProGuard to make the "user" build work.
- market access works, but doesn't show many apps, could maybe alleviated with a build.prop hack - if anyone know nice params let me know.
- sleep/resume works, but sometimes you have to press ESC or similar key during wakeup if the device goes to sleep again directly
So, enjoy: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:51ba3b77f4260b8d66b70ef26b74a2a70c380b69
Feel free to ask any questions but be aware that I might not answer soon. I've put a lot of time into this build, but I realize that some things aren't quite the way the could/should. However, having used it a little bit for more than just testing now, I feel that it is quite usable.

Ok, I don't want to sound too political here, but these are the facts:
any hosting service costs money. Any hosting provider may remove the
hosted file or even shut down your account if someone claims a
copyright breach on it. (Yes, even Google.) There are also limits on
how many downloads you can put on Google Code, and they will limit
download speeds if they see the need to do so.
Fact is, your upload most likely doesn't cost money (I mean: it
doesn't cost you more money if you upload files than if you don't)
because nowadays the vast majority of people have flatrates (DSL,
cable, ...).
Fact is also, that I as a developer don't see why I should spend money
for hosting if I'm already spending my time on the stuff.
Given the types of software that people often have on their computers,
running a torrent client certainly is not the worst use of your
computer.
It's not that it's exeedingly hard to download a torrent, in fact, you
install a program (once !) and then whether you click on a http://...
link or a magnet:... link doesn't make a difference at all.
That's just my reasoning behind it all. (And don't argue with
RapidShare and the like, given the recent incident with Megaupload,
and the fact that with most of these, it is a PITA to actually
download the file you want.)
I will see if in due course I can upload the file to the Google Code
hosting, but I won't promise it.
Just my 2ct...

Actually, I think you were the one who had troubles with the Intel
Wireless LAN. I wanted to analyze it because I still had the original
2200bg card that came with my X41 but somehow I cannot get the laptop
to boot with it installed. I don't know if it has to do with the fact
that I use a patched BIOS which allows any WiFi card (I have a ath9k
n-standard card now), but because of this I'm unfortunately not able
to debug this issue any further with the resources I have.
The only thing that I read also from other users, is that sometimes
the channel configuration may not allow the particular channel your
router is on. (Different parts of the world allow only a subset of all
WiFi channels.) But I think that may not be your problem.

Do you knot The Pirate Bay? It's the 80th most visited website in the
world. And guess what? All they have is torrents. Torrents are not as
unknown as you might think. P2P (that is, mostly torrent) traffic
accounts for more than 50% of ALL internet traffic.

I have 3 peers seeding 24/7, that's enough I think. Also, share ratios
are well above 10, so I think the test base is there.

This is actually not my goal. If I wanted to make Android-x86
"available to the masses", I would start a company, and then, yes, I
would provide download links (probably in addition to torrents).
Thinking about it - the good point is that it ensures that anyone who
downloads the image is at least able to install software on his
computer. That's a good entry level to start trying Android on x86
anyway :-D

free because it doesn't suit their demands. (go complain to the
buggywhip manufacturers that they don't offer a sufficient model for
your automobile, or something.)
Stefan: you are doing an amazing job; and using torrents for media
distribution is a perfectly fine and commonplace method. but you
already knew both those things, and explained the latter quite well.
didn't want to step in before to "defend" you because I figured you
are quite capable to yourself, which obviously you are.
the only reason I used sendspace for my x61t image (thanks again
Stefan, the work is all yours!) is because my network at home is too
unstable to support a torrent. I'm surprised none of these file
trading sites have an option to serve files as a torrent rather than
direct download (well ok, not surprised - they would save a ton of
bandwidth but lose out on all their stupid advertisement model). but
since I only got a free sendspace account and I'm not making ad
revenue on downloads or however that works, their size limit means I
can only offer 1 iso image at a time; which is sort of dumb. (well
maybe if I turn on squashfs I can offer an entire 2 whole images at a
time! wow! hah)
people, let's not respond to the troll or whatever it is, but continue
with our business of making thinkpads awesome with android.

I know that for 2.3 and 2.2 people were able to run the Thinkpad image successfully on a m1400, since the hardware is very similar.
You can boot in DEBUG mode and see what happens. (The boot process will start a shell three times, so when nothing happens and you see a prompt, just enter "exit" to continue.)

That's cool :) You can fill the stick using the "dd" command in the terminal. (dd if=ISO_file of=/dev/sdX where X is the letter for your USB stick)

Yes, I'm running it like that on mine. The easiest way is to add it to the Grub menu at /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
But on ubuntu there is a file called 40_custom or something like that in /etc/grub.d IIRC and you can just copy the entries from the original grub and add it at the end of this file, then run "sudo update-grub". My entry reads:
menuentry 'Android-x86' --class os {
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,4)'
linux /android/kernel root=/dev/ram0 quiet splash i915.powersave=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 usbcore.autosuspend=2 lapic video=1024x768-16@60 androidboot.hardware=thinkpad_x41t SRC=/android
initrd /android/initrd.img
}
But I have renamed the folder on the given partition from android-2012xxxx to just android.

requirement for ICS. But you should read carefully: it is running on
my Thinkpad which has the same processor. Why? Because the
"requirement" doesn't apply to a system which you compile yourself. So
I have recompiled the toolchain without the SSE3 requirement, and yes,
then it works on CPUs without SSE3. Although any app which uses the
NDK could in theory still use the SSE3 instructions, I don't think
we'll see many apps with native x86 binaries in the near future, so
every app that uses only pure Java should work fine.

dodgy things which mean it isn't really usable currently. There is a
minor issue which causes android to suspend rather quickly (around 20
seconds) after which it takes several attempt to wake it. The main
issue i am seeing is the wireless which simply doesn't work and
constantly says "Turning on Wifi" in settings.
Any ideas??

Which project? AOSP (by Google) or android-x86.org?
Note the SSE3 requirement is made by Google, not by us.
We even didn't know that, until we discussed with Google
after someone complained.
Anyway, I'll phase in solution suggested by StefanS

I think SSE3 support accelerates those devices a lot if they can

Why should we disclaim on that acceleration of SSE3 to be able to

An actual X86 device to support Android with SSE3 is so cheap...

I quote:
"SSE3 adds a small series of instructions mostly geared to making
complex floating point arithmetic work better in some data layouts.
However, since it is possible to get the same or better performance by
repacking data as uniform vectors rather than non-uniform vectors
ahead of time, it is not expected that most developers will need to
rely on this feature. Finally, it adds a small set of additional
permutes and some horizontal floating point adds and subtracts that
may be of use to some developers."
We won't be doing any raytracing on Android, so the speed improvements
are marginal. Also, I think the main reason why Google (Intel,
actually) wanted to include it is because they want to run in on their
crappy Atom and Medfield CPUs, where they need every clock cycle they
can get. My Pentium M still outperforms almost any available Atom CPU.

An obvious answer is WBIC. Also, it allows us to give our 10 year old
devices a new life. Maybe I should show you how Android runs on my 1.5
GHz 2GB Tablet from 2004 - you will be impressed. It runs more fluid
than on my 2.5-year old "cutting edge" smartphone.
Anyway, it's a useless discussion sine there's an easy solution available.

thanks for the offer. Maybe we try the SDP (standard debugging
procedure) first. Can you provide me with a complete dmesg and logcat
of one try to switch the Wifi on?
Easiest probably if you run

> logcat -b system -b radio - b main -b events -d > /data/logcat.log
Or, instead of /data/ you can use /mnt/USB or /sdcard (whichever is mounted).
Then, you can scrape the logs off the partition or USB stick/SD card.

try with my X41T, and have reach to the same point. I switch on
wireless, wait around 30 seconds and then it auto switchs off without
returning any scan result. During that period the wifi LED of my
tablet sometimes blinks, and according to dmesg the ipw2200 module
loads correctly.
At first logcat shows "rfkill: cannot open RFKILL control device" ; I
solved it giving permissions to /dev/rfkill . Next, it says "nl80211:
Driver does not support authentication/assotiation or connect
commands".
I have tried to search similar traces in google, and perhaps a
possible solution is to load wpa_supplicant using wext driver instead
of ipw2200. However, I dont know how to configure it within
Android...
Hope to be useful for you. If you need anything else, I will do
wharever I can.
Greetings from the north of Spain...
StefanS
yes, I've had the chance to test it now with my 2200bg card. You're
right, rfkill permissions are needed, and also the wext (or more
specifically, awext) driver for wpa_supplicant. I'm trying to work
this out, but right now there are some problems, and I don't know at
all if the awext driver will also work for other wifi cards like the
Atheros.
Stefan
StefanS
ok, I have now figured out, thanks to fernando, that the ipw2200 wifi driver needs the wext, or more specifically the awext driver in wpa_supplicant. So I have backported an important function to the old wpa_supplicant driver, and now Wireless LAN is working also with the Intel 2200 (and probably also 2915) WiFi cards. Also, Bluetooth can be switched on now regardless of the initial state when booting (rfkill permissions).
Here is the new link: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:1351f4ca9b865ceeb5ed81e77c517e94d099f068 and the torrent file is attached, as usual.
Also, I have applied another kernel patch for suspend/resume, and it is absolutely usable now. Sometimes after a long sleep time you may still have to push the power button twice, but it never goes to sleep again directly after wakeup.
I have changed the graphics driver back from gallium to the 915 "classic" driver, which solves problems with crashing applications (like Google Maps). BUT you have to enable "Force GPU rendering" in Settings->Developer Options. I hope this is done automatically on a fresh installation, but if you get white screen issues, look there.
Next on my agenda is support for 3G USB dongles (maybe I can use libhuawei from ExoPC/Wetab) and the detection of the laptop/tablet mode, since currently this is not detected, but I would like to force the right screen orientation in laptop mode and automatically show onscreen keyboard in tablet mode. This shouldn't be too hard, but it involves some framework coding, which I have not done yet.
Hope you enjoy this version, and I'm looking forward to feedback.
Stefan
P.S.: I decided to consolidate some information on my website www.stefanseidel.info so have a look there for current status.

gives any result. Is only when I manually enter my wifi network when
it connects and show nearby APs. From that moment, it works like a
charm.
Some more issues:
- Install to HD is not working for me...
- The SD emulation doesnt work properly; Android doesnt detect the
mount point. However, if I use a real device (parameter SDCARD=/dev/
block/mmcblk0) it works properly.
- There is a native library missing for Youtube (libcarousel.so), it
clearly appears at logcat when you start it from the main menu.
- Suspend and resume is a bit buggy for me... with wifi on, the screen
nevers switchs off. Also sometimes I cannot resume device...
Keep the good work Stefan! This distro is becoming very usable with
every release.

Hello Stefan!
At first thank you for the build that let my wifi on my ACER Aspire one Pro 531h working! But I have only one question. Is it possible that you compile a build version with mouse cursor, like the other builds have?
StefanS
adaptions. But you shouldn't expect it to work like my build, because
I use another toolchain.

good afternoon stefan
I have just downloaded the final version of
thinkpad_universal-4.0.3-20120307.iso
from your website
http://stefanseidel.info/index.php?view=article&id=6:android-x86-progress
and i have installed in my 42 inch touch screen, the WI-fi network works immediately
but the touch screen interface is not responding, so i dont know hot to fix it.
the screen is smaller and the keyboard and mouse from USB port works fine but the touch screen via USB doesnt get it.
i hope you can tell me how to edit the android root file or where to find out, i dont know how to modify them and what lines and file to change
and what tools do i have to use to edit, i read this site
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
but is confusing, im new building android versions.
hardware of touch screen:
single touch
motherboard soyo
dual core intel processor
AMD video card
HD 250GB
expecting reply :).

Good afternoon to all,
I installed the latest version and love it. My x41t back to life, because with linuxnot exploited the full potential of this tablet.
It all works very well, I installed games and programs.
I have some problems with the videos as most I can not play, the video playersmost do not support or do not improve the built-in system.
Also a shame that the adobe flash does not have a compatible version, does anyone know any alternative?
Thank you very much Stefan, wonderful work.
A greeting.

Dear group,
again, I have compiled a new version of ICS 4.0.3 for the IBM Thinkpad x41t and similar devices.
These are the notable changes and limitations (a lot of credit goes to Chih-Wei!)I will hopefully send a lot of emails to the group in the coming days with patches and information about what I found out and changed to make this work :)
- much smaller image because using squashfs now
- automatic screen rotation through hdaps accelerometer reading
- is implemented correctly but some apps might work wrongly because they were designed for portrait devices, not landscape. Hopefully this will change with the rise of the Android tablets :)
- screen rotation is only correct/useful in tablet mode, tilt laptop backwards to get back to "laptop mode"
- accelerometer is calibrated during startup, so make sure the laptop is reasonably level when you boot
- mapping of screen bezel buttons
- arrows = volume up/down
- Enter = Enter/DPAD center
- ESC = back (doesn't work in all applications)
- "suitcase" = menu
- "rotation" = home (doesn't work, I might try "search" some time)
- "hidden button" = POWER (put device to sleep, but cannot wake it up again)
- Youtube app kind of works (crashes when started directly, but works fine when started from a link or from the widget)
- Maps works, but prone to crashes, esp. when starting in portrait mode (no problems when starting in landscape and then rotating to portrait) or in settings
- added Google Docs with offline support
- includes Superuser and File Manager
- can simulate SD card when not present, otherwise you will need to add "SDCARD=/dev/mmcblk0" if you want to use the real SD card slot
- no "eng" build anymore, but a "user" build, this has many implications, but most notable should be the faster applications because of dalvik optimizations and especially: no more annoying red flashes all the time!! (Don't know what these were, but they are gone). I had to disable ProGuard to make the "user" build work.
- market access works, but doesn't show many apps, could maybe alleviated with a build.prop hack - if anyone know nice params let me know.
- sleep/resume works, but sometimes you have to press ESC or similar key during wakeup if the device goes to sleep again directly
So, enjoy: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:51ba3b77f4260b8d66b70ef26b74a2a70c380b69
Feel free to ask any questions but be aware that I might not answer soon. I've put a lot of time into this build, but I realize that some things aren't quite the way the could/should. However, having used it a little bit for more than just testing now, I feel that it is quite usable.
