Pixel Terminal Setup

Pixel Terminal Setup

Tested devices: Pixel 8 Pro & Pixel 8

1. Enable Developer Mode

To enable Developer Mode on an Android device, navigate to Settings > About phone, and tap the Build number seven times in rapid succession. A message will appear indicating Developer options have been enabled. You may need to enter your device's security credentials (PIN, pattern, or password) to confirm.

2. Search for Linux Development Environment in Developer Options

3. Enable Linux Development Environment

4. Launch the Pixel Terminal and go to Settings

5. Resize the disk for Linux development to at least 10GB

Remarks: We've managed to increased the disk size to 16GB on Pixel 8 Pro and 10GB on Pixel 8.

Test AgentMake AI on Terminal

Port Control

Grant port access for related services. For example, grant port access of 32123 for running agentmakestudio.

Manage Shared Folder or Files

For example, use Total Commander app to organise files in the Downloaded folder, which are accessible in the Pixel Terminal's /mnt/shared

Remarks: You need to grant file access to the Total Commander app, like below.
