[Q][Devs] Ubuntu Phone Os - HTC One X

Hello all.
Do you think it's possible to work on an Ubuntu port from nexus 4 for our devices?
Maybe someone is already working on it. If yes could you tell us please.
Thanks you devs for your hard work!

Maybe image from n7 would be easier to port since it is tegra 3...

all i can say would love to se this tested out due to the Nexus 7 sharing the tegra 3 but there is alot of other issues at hand that may be different but the dev have made wonders of previous things.

Yes I agree with you. Deva are really goods here. I'm a noob in Linux dev. So n7 image is ready to download it's why I asked this question... I would like to try but I don't want to brick my phone... But I'm really interested to try Ubuntu...

An official porting guide will be availllable at 15pm... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

We want to see ports for our HTC One X Some developers already ported it to SGS3.

I think is better wait for a port when radio and other works.
Because, the first image, have the radio off, kernel is unstable and a lot of pics are fake

To anybody else trying: can you get the "phablet-dev-bootstrap" command to work? 'Cause I can't.

I'll try at home... Work in progress for one x+... Maybe it's will be easier to port it...

Sorry for question but i'm interesting: why port a pre-alpha release when don't work anything?
I think in 2 months there are new release with a stable kernel and with radio on

Because of.... I need it! I want to give it a try and most probably, whenever it becomes a bit more usable, we won't have to start everything from scratches.
I'm trying to do something with the port, can't assure anything... no enthusiastic comments please!

R: [Q][Devs] Ubuntu Phone Os
It was an info question
I think is better take a port when it will be more usable but we are free and my it was a question!
Don't worry mate

no problem! I think that it will be a maintainment and not a new start!

We just want to see how it look & work... I don't care about radio

Well, i have a friend with gnexus, he tried ubuntu and: the kernel is unstable and is laggy
So, i think radio is important, because you can use wifi and signal network...

Android (Working... well kinda... )

Hey devs,
So according to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2084090&posted=1#post2084090
It is possible to port the android platform on 7500... And I had though 7200 and 7500 are essentially same except for different carriers... So I was wondering if anybody can find a similar approach installing android on the kaiser...
PROOF of workign: http://ustream.tv/recorded/MCvuInWZtruJojC4h2HqiAUyBKjIDFx4
It didnt work for me when I tried it from SD either... Remember I used AT&T Tilt ROM... i want to hear if this works on other ROMS...
Oh and if it freezes after haret is done loading... then it is probably that u do not have A LOT OF space on ur main memory... So do a clean up and a clean boot up before u run this... remember, we're just emulating it right now... oh and its seems pretty fast after its loaded... of course, I am only judging this by the one thing I can do i.e. bring up the wallpaper setting dialog usign the OK button beside the DPad...
OMG it works...
No buttons.. OK buttons puls up some wallpaper setting.. but it loads in LINUX, terminating WM..
People try it out... You DONT have to flash ur phone to use it... You might have to soft reset it to quit since buttons dont work... ... im trying something to get buttons working...
EDIT: Btw, I am using AT&T Test ROM for now... was just testing it... It might work better with Dutty's ROM... Please let me know if any progress is found ...

You are able to get this to work on the Kaiser? I freeze after the HaRET finished loading. Are you running this from the SD card or from main memory? This is quite a shock to hear of a working android on the kaiser because uptil now there hasn't even been a working liunx version on the kaiser!
Please share with us any details that you think might help us to reproduce this!
So confirmation it works on Kaiser? This vector would be more productive than sitting on our asses waiting for hardware-drivers from HTC/Qualcomm.
Yes, Please, or at least some type of proof or something!

Proof posted ... now to soft reset to get work done
Oh and update... I tried to instead chnage the script to run a different initrd... one from actual SDK, but that was around 33 MB... and haret.exe complained it can only run images <= 25MB or so... So If anyone can get the latest SDK imaged and get it running... please post instructions...

Shipped Rom
so im guessing this is the official official? not the one that was already released?
I think it's the one that was already released, and in my opinion it's not the complete ROM, the USB tethering isn't active and there's no facebook app/widget.
I have a rom with test key before this. I tried renaming to update but I got an error when updating.
Oh also there is no facebook app or widget. it just download contact photo's and photo albums and you can update facebook or twitter status from your own contacts.
hello tom
looks like im moving from the diamond threads to this one
just waiting for orange UK to release the phone
install
if anyone has tried this rom and sucessfully installed it on the dream. please explain the process you took and how its performing. im deciding if i should make the leap from dude's rom which i like a lot... thanx in advance

[Discussion] "Ubuntu for Phones"

As you all know "Ubuntu for phones" has been released for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. Lets discuss about this being a possiblity to port on our device.
A porting guide will be posted on Ubuntu website on 22nd (which is today in India).
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting#Stay_tuned.21
Great my fingers-crossed hope we can take advantage of Ubuntu in our phone

Dual Boot
Just curious, the porting guide says that Ubuntu runs over the stock kernel, if it's right, would it be possible to run it in dual boot?
Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) is having official support and currently the port is work in progress. Apart from the system partition size issue, if samsung galaxy s can run it, so can defy. This is very early stage and we can only presume such thing.

Should not be, most of the phones which can run cm 10.1 can easily handle this. Building it too doesn't look much difficult. "Ubuntu for phones" is surprisingly based on CM sources.
I've not enough speed for syncing sources, maybe Kayant or m11kkaa can build it for us.

Till it gets stable enough to worth porting, we will probably have CM 10.1 and kernel 3.0 working perfectly
A little update
I have successfully compiled the the ubuntu zip for our defy however, am facing a major issue at the moment which is the prebulit image that is needed to flash before installing the defy zip is not being installed for some reason Am currently trying to find why this is but no luck so far...... I think I may be something to do with our data partition..... maybe the preimage is too big for it??? that am not sure but I have just reduced it by deleting some images and videos included in the demo..... Hopefully it will decide to work this time
Edit - that did the trick it's working now ^_^

What exactly do you mean Is the phone not booting pass the black screen after the moto logo.... if so you need to make sure you have wipe data if not the quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip won't be installed and flashed the quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip first or it will never boot.

Cyanogenmod 13(porting)

Ok this is a topic for discuss on the porting of cyanogenmod 13 to our devices...i think that the porting is very easy to do because the only differnce between s6 and s6 edge plus are the screen and ram.
I try to boot cm (s6 version) but it doesen't boot .
Anyone could help us for making this possibile ?
Yes, please! We do need Cyanogenmod to our S6 edge+!
Nice progress m8.
Also, this thread much sense makes. Congrats.

i think this thread should be promoted in other areas-threads so as to see all developers wishing to express interest to built cm for us.. :good:
Well, as it seems, Samsung isn't going to release the source code, which means there's no AOSP... at least not stable for daily use.
Wait,you installed galaxy s6 version of cyanogen on your edge plus and it didnt hard brick without any modification?If so I might have a solid idea on how to run it but since this is such an expensive device i am really afraid

Just some int.d build.prop and permission twicks witch I used to port stuff on my old exynos s5,Im sure someone else tryed this but I need to know 100% that the g920 or g925(there is cm for that) cyanogen kernel does NOT brick our device and that it can still be resored via odin.Again this is an very expensive piece of equipment and my JTAG station just died last week.So I really am not in the mood for bricks now
EDIT:Why people say there is no source code everything I needed for porting could be found at opensource.samsung.com

Yes,but it deserves a try perhaps he missed something.But my question still remains: Does the s6 cyanogen brick the plus or the edge cyanogen brick the plus?

I have also LDU like him ..i could help work on this
