SSH + Termux is one option. X-plore for Android is a good file manager with a bunch of options for transferring files over a network.

Syncthing!

Potatos_are_not_friends ,

Vouching syncthing. Easily synced 2TB files between three computers.

PlexSheep ,

Amazing piece of software but more for regular syncing needs instead of the irregular PDF

LeFantome , in Linux distro for an ancient Pentium PC

Slackware says it still supports everything that the Linux kernel supports ( which would include Pentium ).

TheFonz , in Lindroid is an Android app that lets you run Linux in a container, with support for hardware-acceleration

Does this mean I could install and run Blender on my phone???

PlexSheep ,

You can try

drwankingstein ,

you can already try that with chroot/proot, this just gives far better integration for input handling and stuff

pineapplelover , in How can I easily and conveniently transfer files wirelessly between my linux computer and android phone?

If it’s anything big I send it to my synology nas. If it’s something small then I honestly just send it through Signal. Although, I do wanna try this kde connect thing out as well.

PlexSheep ,

Kde Connect works very well for this stuff. Sadly, on pop_os! I couldn’t make it work, but I used in in all other distro before.

pineapplelover ,

Yeah I just tried it on my arch desktop and android phone and couldn’t get it to find my devices. Perhaps it’s cause the devices are on VPN?

PlexSheep ,

Nah that’s not it. I mean that prevents it but I personally don’t use VPN enough.

Yo dawg, I heard you like Linux. So I built a Linux container for your Linux phone. Now you can enjoy Linux while enjoying your Linux phone.

jol ,

We definitely living in a simulation.

laughterlaughter ,

Not that I don’t disagree with you, but how did you come down to this conclusion?

jol ,

We’re so many levels of abstraction and emulation deep, that the natural conclusion is that there’s no reason to believe we’re at the top of the abstraction, but somewhere in the middle.

laughterlaughter ,

I understood that. But I don’t see how you came down to this conclusion simply because someone put Linux inside Linux.

When you put matryoshka russian dolls one inside the other, do you also think “man, we live in a simulation”?

jol ,

Yes

laughterlaughter ,

Oh.

dutchkimble ,

Wonder if it’s running on Linux

smileyhead ,

You can call it GNU/Linux if the same name for OS and kernel turns out to be confusing for you.

Boot to BIOS. That should show you either CPU arch. or an exact model that you can check on Intel’s website. It may be an issue entirely unrelated to the architecture.

If you are on same network you can use

python3 -m http.server

It will launch a http server which will serve all the files in your computer.

You could emulate Android on Linux before, now you can also emulate Linux on Android

The circle of libe is compleet

eshep ,

@lemmyreader @cafuneandchill PostmarketOS in chroot in termux in waydroid on PostmarketOS 🤘

critical ,

Now the only question is: How deep can you go?

EddoWagt ,

We can also emulate windows on android and WSL obviously on windows.

So we can use Linux to emulate Android, which in turn emulates windows to run WSL

drwankingstein ,

well it’s not really emulation, if you are familiar with LXC it’s that, it’s pretty much a super chroot

cafuneandchill ,

Technically true, but it’s easier to refer to it as emulation

joe_cool ,

It’s also quite wrong.

joe_cool ,

Oh I like that one. Yoink! Thanks.

joe_cool ,

I have been running arm32 elf binaries and Xorg on my HTC M8 stock kernel with Android 4. That’s not a new thing. Libreoffice and Xfce ran pretty well on that thing.

Syncthing, KDE Connect

Samueru , in How can I easily and conveniently transfer files wirelessly between my linux computer and android phone?

I use kdeconnect with this script: github.com/…/kdeconnect-any-filemanager

You need a phone, tablet, or other device that’s been rooted.

Me in this thread: revolvingdoor.gif

drwankingstein ,

look into proot+termux-x11 if you don’t have a rooted device, it’s still very good.

Tja ,

I looked on the play store and fdroid, haven’t found anything. I’d love to have a Linux chroot with CLI linux software, don’t want to root my phone. Halp.

Tja ,

For the lazy, in termux:

$ pkg install proot
$ pkg install proot-distro
$ proot-distro install debian
$ proot-distro login debian

Profit??

SynopsisTantilize ,

Commenting here for a good time.

joe_cool ,

It’s just quite a bit slower. Everything else other than messing with /sys and android processes works the same.

HDMI, mouse and keyboard and you have an office pc.

drwankingstein ,

Yup, I used it all the time with samsung dex, works great

KillingTimeItself ,

Rule of thumb for android users, all of the interesting shit is shit you can’t do unless you’re rooted.

GlenTheFrog ,
@GlenTheFrog@lemmy.ml avatar

I remember when it used to be all the REALLY interesting stuff was root only, yet a lot of normal interesting stuff was non-root. Now even with root, modern Android can be a pain and the interesting stuff just pales in comparison with true Linux

KillingTimeItself ,

yeah, linux has me spoiled, just being able to do whatever i want as i please is truly a modern art.

Android made me realize how incredible linux was by being so utterly painful.
