Ubuntu Touch port - Wileyfox Swift

Anyone's working on an Ubuntu Touch port?

It would be interesting to see and there is enough material to build Ubuntu Touch/ Sailfish OS on the crackling.
The Swift doesn't support MHL, so Convergence being the most talked about feature is a no-go sadly

I wanted to do all out Microsoft but I doubt a lot of people would use it. But anyways I wanted to throw in Temaseks kernel along with Phonograph. V4a. Pre-installrd xposed. The new cm theme engine. Everything

Nice! I will be looking forward to check out your build.
Just for clarification- Convergence is the Ubuntu naming for switching between "phone" mode and desktop-like mode when connected to external monitor. Nothing to do with DivergenMod

Hi, Do you have any builds already? I have found only Firefox OS builds based on CyanogenMod that might be helpful for you.

I haven't got any time to even start yet But it's such a tempting side project

[DEV] B2G=FirefoxOS

This phone will never die
Synthetic.nightmare
I created an organzation on github alongside deadman and Awesome and rebased to the lovely aospX source code (for stability).
Tonight deadman worked along with me to try and get our script all set up to properly repo sync (+some other things) and after a bit more work, I have managed to get it to where we can sync using the proper b2g command ./config.sh as stated correctly in the readme. This is kind of a big deal, because before, I was just working around some of the scripts doing things the traditional android way lol. There's still parts that are needed to be rolled back and stuff and who knows what there might be broken even after we get all that worked out, but I thought that there might be some other devs around here that may be interested in helping bring this over to us and possibly others who want to keep track of this.

This "build process" is just you syncing your repositories. There's still a mountain to climb once you get past this. It seems your manifest is off. When adjusting it look for things it says it cannot fetch. From there check to see if you got the repos and revisions and whatnot written out correctly in the xml in your manifest.

Ohhh shizzzz. :victory:
Our Glaciers would be able to rock 2 OSs (Android & Firefox) Can't wait.
A couple potential reasons for the repo sync error if you are still getting that:
First off.
Virtual or dual boot?
Which version of Ubuntu?
Laptop or Desktop?
Hard wired or wifi?
Potential Problems:
Unstable Wifi/ethernet driver- Recompile the driver
Wifi/router is going down- Keep the router awake?
MOST PROBABLE: Crappy repo file- Just delete the folder/make a new folder if you have space and make a fresh repo file and try to pull it down again.

Howdy dudes! Any news?

I'm glad to finaly see some dev support.... but...

There seem to be lots of ROM options coming to fruition, but they all seem to be half baked and development is slow. Why not have the Dev's team up and make one awesome ROM? It is getting hard to choose between things like a working GPS or a working camera(for example only).

Well first of all what do you term as slow ? Samsung gave us ICS in 8 months with major bugs, withdrew it and then released it again after 2 months. Whereas the devs here had already resolved those bugs.
Again CM10 is a tough one as this is the only device with CM10. The target was end of the year but look at it we already have CM10.1 as well. So the devs here are faster than the team at Samsung who get paid for it..
As the base is the same drivers and source written for CM10, all the ROMs based on it will have the same bugs.
GPS and camera are no more an issue. I've been using the camera on my CAMP rom and no issues. Also past 2 days I've driven for 600 kms and no issues with GPS and everytime it locks under 30 secs and works very well.
For me the only major bugs left are
1. Keyboard backlight - known solution
2. Sym key - known solution
Rothorick is working on the above two and will surely come up with a fix soon. The term half baked is not something you can use for ROMs being used as daily drivers!!!
Sent from my SGH-I927
Just be glad we get anything at all. We only have one main dev and only a few others helping the process. These roms WILL get finnished but only in due time. Just take some time to relax and be patient. I have faith in dman and all his hard work is greatly appreciated here. Its the holidays let dman have his time to himself.

Errrr..... current CM10.1 has everything but bluetooth and the keyboard backlight. And dman is cracking the whip on bluetooth right now.
Also, the way you word the question betrays a misunderstanding in the process. Most of the ROM developers don't have the knowledge and experience to troubleshoot hardware compatibility problems. We have dman, that's about it. The rest of us, at best, only know enough to gesture furtively in the correct direction or unearth an important path or config file. So, fixes are implemented by dman and rolled out in his sources and ROMs, and his sources are then used by other people to build their ROMs.

You give me way too much credit. I only figured out half of the keyboard backlight problem -- the other half necessarily must come from dman as I don't know where to begin on getting the Android core to poke the sysfs.
As for the keyboard, we have a kludge for the Sym key. I'm working on a proper solution, as well as a fix for the voice search and dotcom keys, but in both cases, because we need changes in core classes, it's more a matter of open-source politics than technical troubleshooting.

Yup, the special hardware keys are a issue in CM on every slider phone. Hope you get a proper solution to this, so we don't have to fool around with framework-res and keyboard files

It literally comes down to submitting patches to CyanogenMod and AOSP and hoping they see the need. We could just make builds with the patch, but we can't call them CyanogenMod or AOSP then.
Could we compile a list of devices that need extra keycodes? It'd definitely bolster our case to say "these 42 phones are directly affected by the issue solved by this patch", plus I can be more thorough.

Can you elaborate on the the code change you are planning to submit. We can still have a patch on top of CM or AOSP, just like we have so many proprietary files from samsung.

We need to change certain core classes like KeyEvent and a few others (there's a list in the comments in KeyEvent.java) as well as a few other places to connect the keycodes to their correct behavior. And it needs to be done in a way that works globally for all phones, not just the Glide. Which is, more than anything, a matter of convincing devs bigger than any of us that we know what we're doing, we didn't break anything, and it's a necessary change.

[ROM] MIUI Port

This ROM is in no way suitable for daily use and is only shared so that other fellow developers can take a look and maybe provide fixes to one or multiple things on the "not working" list.
Take it as a very early proof of concept.
ROM DOWNLOAD: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358554238
What I did to get this far...
1. I took the MI3W miui-germany ROM
2. I unpacked the MI3W's ROM
3. I unpacked the boot.img of the MI3W ROM (zImage, dt.img, ramdisk)
4. I patched the fstab.qcom and init*.rc files to match the Find 7a
5. I unpacked the latest OmniROM for Find7a
6. I unpacked the boot.img of OmniROM (zImage, dt.img, ramdisk)
7. I copied zImage and dt.img from OmniROM's extracted boot.img into MI3W's extracted boot.img
8. I repacked the MI3W boot.img
9. I bundled the MI3W system partition with the modified MI3W boot.img and uploaded it onto the internet for someone else to iron out the remaining bugs
What seems to work...
*) Basic Operation (MIUI apps, status bar, well what you would expect really)
*) Bluetooth
*) Wired Headset / Bluetooth Audio
*) RIL / Mobile Data
*) GPS
What doesn't work... yet...
*) WiFi (there seems to be some issues with wcnss / pronto / prima, this one is bad...)
*) Random Reboots / Blackscreen Glitches (from what kmsg tells me it seems to be related to wcnss, aka. WiFi drivers causing a critical error in kernel every once in a while, fix WiFi and this error will fix itself)
*) Speaker Audio
*) Rotation Sensor (and probably others)
*) Vibration
*) Skyline Notification Light
*) NFC

Good things always have the obstacles.
You've done your part. And let other(s) help you.
I don't have knowledge about cooking a ROM.
But I think someone can help. @Entropy512, can you look at this one?
If you want mae some cool port, i thikn sense rom is good candidate...
Great work
hey there mrcoldbird,
great work so far...keep it up..will definately help support you on this when it is up and running..i am not a dev but if you need someone to just bug report i am there for you,will keep my eyes n ears peeled on the thread and as soon as it's near ready i will flash and help you anyway i can...thank you for all your hard work so far
Right now we need developers involved in this. We know the countless obvious bugs.
Just have to fix them.
Awesome work. Thanks bird. Any chance you want to try lewa os while you're at it. I personally think it is better. I imagine just how busy you are but just wanted to throw it out there
Porting really should only be done when there is no source available for said ROM.
For unicorn a source rebuild might be better.

Lewa OS is extremely similar to MIUI and that is why I even bothered to mention it. I know the developer is having some trouble with MIUI so I thought it would be useful and helpful to mention Lewa as it might be a project that will help the development of either or rom.
Please don't take a blunt tone with me (if that's what it was) as it only makes you look arrogant. Taking in to account our post and thanks scores it is quite clear who has contributed in a more positive way towards XDA. On that note; you might also want to thank MrColdbird in the OP for his contribution, which you have not done as of yet but you seem to be poking your nose in to the thread
That is all
Edit* I apologise MrColdbird if my suggestion was unwarranted.

Actually I've got 99% of the issues resolved already by using a different port-rom in conjunction with a few OmniROM injects.
At the moment only the proximity sensor (screen off on holding the phone to your ear) and nfc are broken, lte works, but needs to be reselected every time the phone reboots via the service menu (dialer code).
Sadly, I'm not allowed to share that (quite nicely working) ROM just yet as I switched port-bases to a unreleased chinese one in favor of the MI3W port-base.
Until that chinese author releases his first public port base-rom I'm kinda bound by the promise I gave not to unveil things early.
Just hang in there, it shouldn't be long until you guys have MIUI on Find7a... all I can tell you is that it works nicely and without any critical flaws I can see except those mentioned above (which we will get fixed too eventually).

No..it's a fake..when you try to download the rom from the link in the description, you will find surveys..anywhere, umeaboy was working on a cyano for edge plus..but anything yet.
I'm tired of touchwiz roms..i really want to try aosp!
I think it's a fake
They got cm13 booting up over in the note 5 forums... it works on edge plus but the navbar and capacitive buttons don't work with our s6 edge plus
Yes..i've found a build on the note 5 forum, it may works on edge plus, the bugs are:
No camera
Youtube videos not works
Text messages causes reboot
I can't live without camera, so i'll flash this rom as a secondary rom, with the dual boot app..now i'm not at home...later i'm going to download it and try it..
I'll keep you updated!
Bye
If we can get a proper kernel working on it with our device it should be a decent tester
Ok..installed as a primary rom..dual boot is not working.
The rom seems to be working, but..there are a lot of bugs..of course.
Not a daily drive, but just this, it's another step.
I forgot that you can't play your music..if you try to riproduce a song with a music player, or simply a file manager, your phone will reboot.
Remember, if you want to try it..you have to flash cm and then, without reboot the system, flash the gapps, wipe cache e dalvik, and reboot.
Keep it in mind, you can't use it as a daily drive.
Sorry for my bad english, i'm italian.

I honestly can't grasp why we do not have the availability of Ubuntu Touch on these devices.
The Meizu Pro 5 came with an Ubuntu Touch model on the idenical Soc/Specs.
I agree all too well about one sidedness, especially putting up with samsung >.<
honestly, samsungs are nice devices but they start to be like apple , i mean locked on every aspect, no mods, people give up on these devices of samsng bcuz the stupid xynos cpu or w/e since samsung dont release the codes to make a custom rom like s3 with archidroid/debian , seriously samsungis gonna lose its custommers if they keep this up

But obviously they released enough to Meizu for them to release a slew of AOSP on the Exynos7420 SoC, like literally
Stock decisions of; Ubuntu Touch or FlymeOS,
CM13/14 was available for download, not sure how that's going currently.
But i just can't grasp why we aren't seeing any love on the other side?

most likely because galaxy s8 is already coming ,and so no use in continueing s6 witch is 2 generations lower, samsung release phones to fast to keep up with apple, witch i so dislike apple ****

Agreed, its just so sad to realize if I want anything actually custom on this thing I either have to put in some hrs of work, & have a wicked internet connection.
Or purchase from Asia for the same SoC from a different manufacturer :/

Sailfish OS on the OnePlus 3?

Howdy!
With Cyanogenmod already out for the it, how long do you guys think it will be for the OP3 to get SailfishOS? I know Sailfish has never run on hardware like the OP3, but I'd be elated to see it on such a powerful device.
Thanks!
An unofficial port just released for the OP2...
Still waiting for a port for OP3.
And the wait just continues... seems unlikely tbh.... can´t wait to try it though. Would like to rid myself of google

Why not use LineageOS 14.1 or something like PureFusion OS, or Paranoid Android?

Are you aware of what Sailfish Os is? Because by your post, you seem not to. I´m currently running resurrection remix so that´s lineage. But sailfishOs has nothing to do with Lineage, OOS nor Android that much tbh. I think you should do some googling and learn about something new Have you heard of Jolla phones?

I know what sailfish os is. But you want to move away from Google services, and sailfish isn't coming anytime soon. So was just asking why not use other alternatives meanwhile...

Plus the person trying to port it to the OP3 is basing it on Android. I find it stupid that you're thinking of me as being dumb based on a question.

I didn´t mean to offend you, dear sir. You can never know what someone does or does not know just by a post online (which is the reason I used the word "seem"- without making assumptions, and encouraged you to read up. I always encourage people to learn more, as I encourage myself as well. I was not aware that he would be basing it on Android, and as far as I´ve checked (and used all three), neither Lineage, Purefusion (aosp) or paranoid android (aospa) are rid of google (unless you just don´t install gapps- which is also the case on Resurrection). So the only alternative (at least that I am aware of) - would be microg - which is basically in alpha stage. Again, I meant ABSOLUTELY no offense, and I apologize if I hurt your feelings.

It's fine man. Was probably a misunderstanding. Yes, you just need to avoid flashing Gapps and maybe use F-droid or the Amazon app store or together app stores. Some said MicroG works well but I never tried.
