There are some changes to the android x86 4.2 jelly bean test this one is that there is no translator ARM, which means that the android 4.2 x86 is not going to much to run apk in goolge play app store.


android x86 4.2 setting


Here are some of the issues that occur in android x86 4.2 jelly bean are:




1. Android will sometimes freeze or lag.

2. Android is not equipped with ARM translator. ARM translator as I mentioned above that with this android without ARM translator then some android apk apps will not work properly or even unworkable.

3. Can not suspend or resume application so its better to disable screen lock to not activated.

4. Bluetooth will not work.



How do you think to try after finding out some of the issues that might occur on android x86 4.2.2 version, different with android x86 4.0 RC2 is still equipped ARM translator, so nearly all applications apk in google android play store can be run.

If the user experience of these things were supposed to VGA with a capacity of 128mb to 256mb should be updated VGA driver or update it with a VGA which has a capacity of at least a decent enough example of 512mb, but if so we could use alternative android emulator such as using android sdk and can be installed in various windows like windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8, android sdk installed in ubuntu was running well.



Android sdk emulator is that we can use on your computer or laptop so if we do not have a android phone and just want to know how the operating system works, and it allows us to use a variety of applications in the android emulator on PC such as WeChat, WhatsApp, KakaoTalk , line, games and so forth.



I use the android sdk emulator in Windows 8 with a dual core Pentium PC, VGA 256 mb, 1 gb ram initially but android sdk liked it a little tough but after the upgrade it so 2 gb ram android sdk on my computer was so smoothly although there is little sometimes a little slow.

Failed to start or load libgl.so in ubuntu android sdk emulator

When I install android sdk emulator on a computer with the operating system ubuntu 12.04 and run and when i run android sdk emulator i have error message are failed to open or load libgl.so and shared , first I had thought that this was one of the low of the specifications of the computer that I use , but after I did a search on google and finally I got a solution that actually provide a solution .



I got this info from the learned stuf with title blog in the post is fixing ubuntu error : Failed to load libgl.so , that's the title of the post , and I would also like to thank you for having the blog :) .



I'm forget how to solve failed to load libgl.so on android sdk emulator in ubuntu is just to install libgl1 mesa , as shown below :

Open a terminal and run or install the following :


sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev



After i try and run the android sdk emulator in ubuntu , failed to load libgl.so hope is gone and is ready for use as well as the android sdk emulator that I use my computer at home.



Here the early solution from teh other with add the following command on terminal ubuntu than that by linking from another file like this :


ln - s / usr/lib/libGL.so.1 ~ / android-sdk-linux_x86/tools/lib/libGL.so

After I try into it in The first load load successful but after I restart the computer and then run back android sdk emulator still error message again appears failed to load libgl.so. And in the end I just give up and use with failed to load libgl.so and shared libgl.so on android emulator but seems to be a little slower and lag and I used to be uncomfortable .



Once again I said many thanks to Learned stuff for giving the best solution for me :) . Why do I talk too much because i need writing around 300 words in the word count office :) . And finally had fewer than 300 words :) . Good luck

Android x86 jelly bean 4.3 install in virtual box on windows os

For those who always want the latest update ie android x86 here the android 4.3 jellybean x86 has been released and can be used after the previous android 4.2.2 x86 jellybean have to posted a few months ago and although android 4.4 kitkat released but android x86 no news yet about it.



With ​​there are some changes that have been updated and most of this time has been updated too with the support arm translator, which means we can run almost all android apps in google play store, different with android previous ones is android x86 jellybean 4.2 that not support.



Before we try to install directly to the hard drive perhaps we could try to install android x86 in virtualbox so that we will know what the pros and cons of this android jellybean 4.3 x86. And if it is as expected and works well as the android phones are used. That way we can evaluate for themselves of the advantages and disadvantages of android x86 that we will install, because maybe there will be people who want to dual boot between android and windows that are installed together on PC/Laptop.




And here are some things that have been updated and corrected from the Android x86 source:




- Support ARM translator

- Support bluetooth

- Upgrade 3.10.2 kernel so that it becomes more driver support

- Upgrade Mesa OpenGL ES library to 9.2 devel for support amd radeon acceleration and intel chipset.

- Also Not able to suspend and resume

- No support superuser.



There are several ways to install android version of this computer or android x86 jellybean 4.3, and I give it two ways.




1. How to install x86 android 4.3 jelly bean on a PC, or laptop computer can see linked below


dual boot android and windows.

The first way above could be see on steps in the link above and the grub setting install grub2win for android-x86 you can see the method in link dual boot android and windows above and add android x86 jellybean 4.3 grub manually below:




# android #

menuentry "Android-4.3-test"{

set root='(hd0,X)'

linux /android-4.3-test/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86 video=-16 SRC=/android-4.3-test

initrd /android-4.3-test/initrd.img

}

### End Android ###



note: change the red text with partition installed on android from your computer example if android on partition or drive D: then replace with (hd0,2) sometimes Drive D: = (hd0,3).


2. The second way to install android-x86 is in a virtual box


Also this steps can be use on Linux ubuntu virtualbox.


  • Download virtualbox windows version if it will install a virtual box in windows here because there are several other options such as Linux and MAC OS X.

  • Download jellybean X86 Android 4.3 iso android-x86-4.3-20130725.iso code@google or Android X86 .org

  • After downloading the next step is to install virtual box on computer and start preparations to install android in virtual box.

  • Virtualbox installation on ubuntu linux or in windows like windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8 are method.

  • Open Virtual box already installed on your PC or laptop and then click the new button to create a new virtual Android x86.



This images from my second blog.

  • Then a new window will be seen and click next, fill the name in accordance with your current in the box provided, switch to the Linux operating system and switch to linux 2.6 version can be seen for example in the image below and click next.



android-x86 setting on virtualbox




  • The new window will be see to set memory capacity that will be used in a virtual box for android x86, if your computer has 1GB of RAM or memory then use the virtual box in 256mb or 512mb.



setting memory ram on virtualbox




  • Click next for another setting for the virtual hard disk, Create new hard disk and select the VDI and then select Fixed size and click next.



create new hardisk on virtualbox


vdi virtualbox


fixed harddrive virtualbox




  • Click next to set capacity to use, I use only 2GB.



hardisk partition for android x86 on virtualbox




  • Click next and click create and wait until bar process is to create a virtual hard disk finish as in the example picture below.

android x86 on virtualbox ready to install




  • Next click on the settings button to the storage arrangements to enter iso file into a virtual box that you created.




Because the steps are still long and I was a bit sleepy to continue this post, more can be seen on the video below for how to install android 4.3 x86 jellybean on virtualbox.


How to install linux ubuntu 12.04 lts with the pictures

How to install ubuntu 12.04 lts precise and I think any kind of way to install ubuntu also almost the same as how to install ubuntu 8, ubuntu 9,ubuntu 10, ubuntu 11, ubuntu 13 and although there are slight differences that may be found .



Linux is a free open source software , which means it can be used and updated for free, a lot of the linux operating system that we can use like a fedora, red hat,puppy , and etc. But here I will just give you a little tutorial how to install linux ubuntu 12.04, ubuntu linux is an alternative operating system windows, because the windows are not free, for it as an alternative we can use ubuntu linux that can downloaded for free and use other software also almost free, in addition to using linux then we do not need to worry with the virus because no virus on linux, it's like ubuntu said on the official site.



How to install linux ubuntu 12.04 lts precise pangolin with images :



1. Make sure the disk partition that Ubuntu is available for approximately 6 GB for ubuntu itself is actually about 4.3 GB and for the swap partition is 1024 MB or 1GB .



2. Download ubuntu 12:04 LTS precise for free here or select the appropriate processor like intel or amd used here .



3. There are several options how to install ubuntu is as follows :




  • Install using CD/DVD, backup ubuntu iso file that was downloaded with the software your choice such as nero, MagicISO etc,

  • Install using a USB flash disk using Unetbootin.

  • Install with no CD without flashdik just use the installer on the internal hard drive of direct ubuntu iso file, but there must be a grub boot on your booting computer.




- For windows users install grub2win first.

- Extract Grub2win in Drive C:, after grub2win extracted you will find the grub2win.exe, double click to install it and you will find grub.cfg

- Enter the following settings in grub.cfg at the bottom of the texts available in grub2 folder .







menuentry " Ubuntu 12:04 ISO " {

set isofile = " / home / / Downloads/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso "

# Or set isofile = " / / Downloads/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso "

# If you use a single partition for your $ HOME

loopback loop ( hd0 , 5 ) $ isofile

linux ( loop ) / casper / vmlinuz boot = casper noprompt iso-scan/filename = $ isofile noeject

initrd ( loop ) / casper / initrd.lz

}







Or could look the source in help.ubuntu.com.



4 . Once determine that we are to install ubuntu boot to ubuntu installer and follow the steps, after first boot press space on keyboard to select the language.


install ubuntu 12-04 on computer or laptop



5. Select the "Install Ubuntu" text then select the language that will be used and wait until the loading display appears.

6. After loading passed then the next will be brought to the stage of selecting the language that will be used to install the ubuntu.


install ubuntu select language



7. Click the Continue button to proceed and will be brought to the stage for the beginning of the installation is selecting application / third-party software, click Continue to proceed.


continue installation ubuntu



8. After further we see there are two options, namely erase the disk and something else, select "something else" choice to start setting up the hard drive manually.



9. For the hard drive is still new we can make a new partition there by clicking the "New Partition Table" and the button "Add" to start creating new partitions and hard drives with setting self-determined choice but to install ubuntu partition to be available is 4.3 GB, and format with EXT4 partition type can be seen in the image below.


select harddisk setting install ubuntu



10. If you've made ​​a partition for ubuntu next we create one partition for swap partitions by clicking the "Add" button, swap partition is a virtual memory to make do with the RAM and hard drive capacity used on a laptop or computer so if:




  • RAM 512 MB and hard drive capacity is 30GB, then the swap partition is 512MB

  • RAM 512 MB and hard drive 100GB then the swap partition is 1024MB = 1GB

  • RAM 2 GB and hard drive 30GB then the swap partition is 1024MB or 1GB

  • RAM 2 GB and hard drive 100GB then swap partition is 2048MB or 2GB. And can be seen the sources in help.ubuntu.com.





make swap partition on ubuntu

ubuntu installation location choice



13. After clicking the continue button then the next step is the selection of the type of keyboard that will be used, select a standard keyboard commonly used is the "English U.S." and click Continue.


ubuntu standar keyboard



14. And I think this is the last part of which was to determine the username and password that will be used later during the entry, and I suggest to choose automatic login.


username password instalation ubuntu

After all we fill the username and password and click continue then wait for it to finish and if the installation is finished then restart button will appear and restart the computer, for using the cd/dvd after restart button wait a few minutes and click enter to open the cd/dvd rom opens by itself.

Install Android sdk emulator on linux ubuntu

Android SDK emulator as an alternate, the other is to install BlueStacks Android emulator than if if it turns out the specifications we have a computer or laptop vga less than 512 HD or not to install the BlueStacks will find some problems like error 25000 which means that the driver vga or vga / graphic should be updated to the latest version .



I think this emulator using android sdk android emulator better than others because every time I install the application then the application can run properly. But while the other is virtually impossible according to different opinions depending on what they see and used.



Android sdk is android that can be used on a PC or laptop and it is an interesting thing, so we do not need to buy Android phone if we already have another phone but as long as we have a laptop or PC then it can be done on a PC / laptop and it is an excess of PC / laptop, which almost could install all kinds of operating systems.

How to install bluestacks with 1gb ram and onboard vga

I did installed bluestacks on the computer but will be same if you install on a laptop. Already two posts related to how to install android on pc laptop or computer with various applications such as android sdk emulator,youwave and android x86. Among each emulator has advantages and disadvantages depending on how we rate.



For this time I give a brief tutorial on how to install android on a laptop or computer with a Windows operating system using BlueStacks. What is bluestacks? BlueStacks is Android emulator application that can be used on the windows so we could use the android on a laptop or computer along with the windows. Any version of Windows that can be installed BlueStacks? Windows that can be used BlueStacks among others, windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8.



We need net framework as an additional application before we install BlueStacks because without the net framework BlueStacks will not run. In addition, look at the specification PCs / laptops are used, BlueStacks is android application that I think a lot of the used.



Here will give you tips on how to install android emulator on Windows 8 with BlueStacks and computer specs are slightly lower its specs insufficient, because its onboard VGA and not HD and 1gb of ram, use earlier BlueStacks beta version 0.7.0721. And here my computer specifications.



Operating system: Windows 8

Processor: Pentium Dual CPU 1.80 GHz x2

Graphic / VGA: 256 MB onboard intel G33

RAM / Memory: 1024 MB or 1GB



And this before you install bluestacks your PC must have Net framework installed in your PC.

Minimal computer or laptop based on the source getsatisfaction.com | getsatisfaction.com 2 is as follows:



1. 1GB of RAM

2. Graphic or VGA 256/512MB

3. Netframewrok 2.0 sp 2 can be downloaded at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=1639

4. Netframework 4.0 download in http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17718




bluestacks installation on minimum computer




How to install BlueStacks on Windows with no update VGA driver and 1gb RAM:




1. Download BlueStacks old version for low graphic or VGA here choose BlueStacks beta version 0.7.0721 or if the computer or laptop with good specs that BlueStacks can download here, which I use is windows 8.



2. After downloaded open bluestacks to install with double click and click accept ... If there will be options for such notifications and in app purchase now that the free app would be selected or not that's okay.


install bluestacks less vga



3. Click the install button and wait until the process is complete.



4. This is a common problem, at the time of install BlueStacks is running an error message like "your graphics hardware or dirvers do not support apps ......" just click ok. If BlueStacks continue the installation it will install normally but if at the time of clicked ok BlueStacks does not want to run or even rolling back install the BlueStacks will not be installed. You must update your vga driver to a better version or re-download BlueStacks app with the older version.


bluestacks error message update driver



5. If the install is complete it will automatically open BlueStacks application, just play the android apps with BlueStacks.



6. Or if BlueStacks is not running automatically so we just click it on desktop or in the program files.



7. For how to install android applications apk in PC or android app to bluestacks like whatsapp messenger or other apps can be done with BlueStacks app or download android apps apk to your computer and then double-click the apps that will be installed to bluestacks and apps will be automatically installed to direct BlueStacks, or by direct download or install on the BlueStacks apps.



In some cases that the use BlueStacks on computer 1 GB ram and onboard vga which only has a capacity of 256 MB then install some applications that require better graphics HD its will got some problem and can not be installed as WeChat, and other applications



Consider once again the PC specs that I used above so that nothing was left out of what will be done on your PC. Because so many comments it seems they do not see my computer specs are used.



With BlueStacks we can use the android emulator should like android phone, but the problems during the installation may often we found as I have mentioned above. So if it will install BlueStacks note see for Bluestacks requirement of these are compatible with PC being used, so the problem will we know when to install BlueStacks.



How to install BlueStacks with low specs computer that can be seen in the video below



How to dual boot Install android kitkat x86 and windows on pc or laptop

Been a long time I did not make a post because too lazy to make new posts, but already there are some tips or turorial is to be made.



This time is not much different from the last post, namely how to install android on a PC or laptop with android x86 kitkat.



Already three posts related to how to install android on a PC or laptop that can be installed directly to the partition or to the emulator by using virtualbox, and can be used or a dual boot with windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8 even with linux like ubuntu etc..



Android kitkat is the latest android version with some significant changes, the display is a bit similar to the jellybean but new features from this kitkat android maybe you can see and feel after you install.



This kitkat Android emulator version that can be installed directly on a PC and can dual boot and can also be installed in virtualbox, but the functions and features nothing has changed with the android version kitkat on Handheld. But the differences features are usually can be see from display a Custom ROM you used.



Are you the one that's already tried this android kitkat, if it not possible to try and follow these steps below, or you have own steps to install this android x86 kitkat on your PC/Laptop.



And if you want install android kitkat x86 in virtualbox you can see here

There are two way to install android x86 4.4 RC1 kitkat as follows:

A. Install android 4.4 x86 kitkat using grub from android itself but this is not recommended, because if something goes wrong like boot windows erased or overwritten by grub boot boot into windows will result in an error.



In this step A your MBR disk setting will be replace with grub from android so i suggest to think before use this step A, see in step B below.



1 . Create a new partition in the windows 2GB , and format it to FAT32 type partitions can be put together at the windows but it is good in separation because if there is an error then the windows will not be disturbed . For more details can be seen in the video below this post .

2 . Download android - x86 - 4.4 - RC1.iso looking at android - x86.org

3 . - Burn into the USB flashDisk with Unetbootin , but be careful when going to burn it to flashdisk the datacan be erased .

- Burn to cd use nero or other iso tools .

4 . Restart the PC and then boot to USB flashdisk or cd android 4.4 kitkat by way of plug usb stick into the PC and restart the PC and then enter to bios and change the first boot to USB or CD if that use CD or if you know can directly click the button boot like F9 , F10 , F11 or F12 in accordance with the settings of the PC bios .

5 . After entry into the x86 android 4.4 kitkat first select the third option is a Live CD - Debug Mode to find out where is the fat32 sda partition, after entering typed fdisk -l and its results will be there as shown below :



android debug mode


In the picture above because I made a partition on the hard drive is FAT32 only one there for android so mean here the partition for android is / dev/sda3, so later on when install android install to sda3.

6. Restart the PC and boot back into android and select the fourth ie Installation - Install Android-x86 to harddisk.

install android in laptop or pc


7. It's already been known that the partition is sda3 for android, so install android on sda3 and do not format, to keep from mistakes of formatted

android kitkat on laptop
