[q] u b u n t u??? - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

Will Ubuntu for Phones be possible for our gio? MMB is nicely working on FirefoxOS, but I want to try Ubuntu too, its especially made to run with android drivers and kernel. Its excually a modded CM10.1 without dalvik. But the downside is, its requires a additonal flash from 400mb (talking about port to s3), and thats to big for our Gio. Do you think someone will make it possible?

should be possible, but I dont have interest in it currently, because the system is still growing and there aren't many apps for it, and gio doesnt have dual boot.

Ubuntu touch looks really nice. Mozilla os looks not good and it's an (bad?) android copy... good article on cnet where they compare mozilla os, ubuntu touch and Samsung's Tizen.

[COMING SOON][IT's BOOTING!] Sense 4

It is booting.. but not booting with GUI. Meaning there's still a ton of bugs
Please remember that I have school & don't expect an ETA on this project.
Hopefully it'll come about. If (When) it does, I'll be soo happy
(resource folder of HTC Sense 4 below in attachment. See how awesome this is :laugh
Sorry to break your hopes....but altough the Desire C is MDPI......It still is an ARMv7 device..The people over at the wildfire s forum tried to port it without any luck....It would require certain Sense files to be Backported for ARMv6
Also the Sense 4 in Desire C is a stripped down version
Great...!
But I still dont get how it is possible to port grom arm v7, always failed

Lets just put it this way......it's like Sense 3.5 ......It doesn't have much good features as the Sense 3.6,from which it is stripped down
It means lesser animations customisations etc
But it is still better than nothing

He didn't attack anyone, he just said his opinion and I'm happy he did it, because now I've got more information about Sense and this thread
What's with you guys? Don't you believe? -_-
Fine I'll show you all...
He's right! Whats with you guys? Dont you remember that we had a tw5 port and also lg ui 3, and both were armv7? Dont lose hope, he can do it

These both were a launcher port.
Fpr sense you need the whole rom as sense apps need sense framework to run.

If you make the framework work then apps will work.

Hey can you help me strip it down even more? I've got the core of port finished.
Im still deodexing, the app folder is around 200mb! I see a lot of unnecessary apps, but even if i bring it down, it probably be around 170mb-ish
But that's just app folder, frameworks are around 30mb, plus the entire system folder.
So were looking at still around 200mb of sense 4... How did you slim yours down?
and thats the desire C version(slim)?
wont work ever with one x apps, but you may need to wipe anything up to 30 mb I think, ~170 is max

Can anyone tell me what is Chainfire 3D?

I know this is a noob question bjt what is Chainfire? I heard before kn XDA TV but dont understand what is used for.... I also tried ro install the Chainfire 3D driver but my phone didn't boot after that... Now im currently using CM9 RC2.... Can i install the driver?

Its used gaming for gaming for better graphic and performance
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
From what I have experienced using it, is that it lowers down the graphic performance so that the game can run smoothly. Speed at the cost of high end graphics
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
It is a GUI modification software, it is capable of lowering down graphic details so that a certain program can run in lower performance phones. But it does not support most games though, I tried, uninstalled. It can even reduce quality of your launcher if you wanted to. But then your phone will look bad.
all the previous posts are relatively correct but ill just tell you one thing

the dev of the app was the one who said his app doesn't support ics or jb (it has no improvement when its installed and applied, no changes are done) so i guess if u can see any improvement using it on miui, u shall tell him

In a nutshell:
Gingerbread ROMs are known to have incomplete OpenGL ES support. 3D games *require* OpenGL ES. Chainfire 3D adds the necessary drivers to Gingerbread.

Thanks everyone for the BIG replies... Anyway I tried installing it on my CM9 ROM and it does work cos' i think i set everything to perfomance graphics and then when i reboot, EVERYTHING become distorted including the icons... Temple Run does work weirdly but it SO smooth using it... Now, due to my MASS flashing power, Im using MIUI and i will install Chainfire 3d

i've been using this app since my GB days with my wonder,,
and i can say that its working for me,,,
i've tried it with raiden legacy,, reduce to 16 bit,,, and now there's no white screen problem within the game compared to playing this one without chainfire3d
NICE! So in order to make gaming smoother, i have to reduce to 16 BIT? I tried with CM9 once and icons became distorted... :/ What configs do you use ?

It.s usefull if you have root. This app gives permission to other app to acces su.modify system files etc.(root)
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
I don't find it as good as the SuperSU or Superuser app. Yes, it's new (so it's not perfect yet) but many of the app's reviews stated its best feature is its interface. Its interface doesn't look too pretty on Gingerbread. All those positive UI reviews were from phone's that have ICS or JB so naturally they don't have them ugly rounded corners..
I like it.
Beautiful :beer:

Chrome can work on armv6 yes only need to build libchromeview.so to support armv6 architecture and as far as I know its not yet open sourced so the app wont work.
Except that all other aspects seem compatible to armv6 of course only ics and above.
and your question is absolutely incoherent read above there is no chrome so how can you want a port of tablet ui rather than phone.

[Q] Firefox OS on our phone?

it's possible run firefox os on this device
devs? please, reply!
Hello i would really like to know to if this is possible , any hints or tips would be much appreciated , thanks .
We wait for a port of the launcher firefox os in apk
Sent from my LG-P350 using xda app-developers app
yes, but also be great to have the ability to install another OS besides our Movable android, do not you think?
firefox OS besides is more optimized for low-end devices and small screen, but everything depends on what developers tell us
I'm not a developer, but Firefox OS is supposed to work on ARMv6, so I think it's possible to port it to Pecan...
It‘s possible but we are weating for first alpha by devrloper of xda
