Hello all.
So I've been around the forum for a few weeks now, and so far we have booted Kubuntu mobile, Debian, a custom Android version and Ubuntu on our devices.
Maybe they won't work completely, but the people who started it are still working on it.
Now it got me thinking.
Meego, a linux based OS developed for mobile use (example the N900 which also uses ARM chipset) created by Nokia and Intel, could, in theory, work on our devices.
At the moment I don't have any access to a PC where I can try some stuff out ( maybe in a week or so, I'm on vacation).
But maybe someone else could look into it?
I would really like to see the Handset version, and later on the Tablet version of Meego on our devices.
Dympy-
I would love that too. I have used a maemo tablet before my archos and think that meego is way better than android, so I really welcome any efforts to port it.
The openaos guys are working part time on a port but there hasn't been much to use yet.
Accidential Double Post
The guys from openaos did this already on the Archos Gen7 (A5IT)
I think they could answers many questions about this
But my opinion is, why many developers work on many projects?? Many developers on one project is way better think about this...
After owning and using an N900, I am very reluctant to have any OS developed by Nokia on any hardware. I had such a bad time with Maemo (another OS that Nokia heavily invested in and then dropped in less than a year) that I had to install a hacked Android (NITDroid) OS onto my N900.
Nokia just doesn't seem to make good software these days. I don't know if they ever did.
I think LennB is right. We need more devs working on things like Cyanogen or Ginger/Honeycomb ports. Or even full root without the need for SDE.
That's the "Problem" with open source.
Everybody thinks that his solution is "the cure" and that others are doing the wrong thing.
Thats why most OS Projects are not advancing as fast as they could or will be crap.
Look at OO vs. Libre, so much manpower wasted.
I have to disagree about more devs on one project.
The devs themselves decide what they want to develop, if anyone feels like developing Meego, he (or she) should do that.
Right now I'm reading the ARM wiki of Meego and will see if I can find anything useful.
Dympy-
This is exactly what i was just thinking! I've had my a70 for about a month and i've been busy with school i just started looking through these hacks and i've tried debian. its nice and I was about to start to try to create a ubuntu version but Meego would be much better!
Not sure how far i can get but this is going to be my goal for the summer! =)
First of all, try to build an IMG that can work with the Angström Kernel, after that, you'll be able to boot on it with the OpenAOS Boot menu ^^
Is there any possibility that we will see a functional port of honeycomb for our device? maybe if we took the phone portion from ICS or something. I would love to do it if I knew how, but has anyone thought of doing it? I think that It would work pretty well especially seeing that HW acceleration is off buy default and ICS is not. I think it has a better chance of running on our phones. If anyone is thinking of doing this please let me know, orif someone with dev skils can pm me a how to, like what programs and what not as well as a short basic Rom building from source how to should get me started, and I'll figure it out.
maybe this one will help your searching, porting honeycomb works for HD2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978939
Have any of you guys checked out ubuntu phone??? I think it looks gorgeous!! It would be awesome to put on our device. It even seems like it would be light weight for our phones... Tell me what ya think.

Looks neat. I'm curious if we'd even have the space for it all -- that pesky 317mb rom limit we have. If I were you, I'd keep an eye on Defy Dev forums -- if it can work on our platform, one of em will get it working.
Yea I'll be keeping an eye on it for ya it's apparently supposed to release on the 25th? I think that'll be the source.
Ubuntu seems to be very sexy OS. I would love to install it on Bravo. The Ubuntu founder said that it would be very easy to install it on android mobile phone (hmm.. very easy for whome??). I use Fedora desktop now, but who knows, maybe i will switch to Ubuntu on my PC too.
I wish they'd make desktop Ubuntu that smooth haha. I like the new Icon set and the way the apps look

I use Ubuntu based distros for a long time and none of them provides stability, performance acceptable for my needs.
So I think that will be the same story with Ubuntu Phone.
Also IMHO Canonical made a mistake posting UP news over the internet and after declaring that imgs will be available on Autumn.
Till that time Android will, probably, have 5.1 - 5.2 upgrade

I used to like Ubuntu, then I "upgraded" to 9.04. I've only used Ubuntu for about 4 hours since -- was going to use it for android dev work, but the first reboot killed my wifi and nothing I did could fix it (Ubuntu 12.10\Mint13?). Personally, imho, if you like Ubunut you should just learn to use Debian -- its Ubuntu's base and much more stable (they're "unstable" repos are rock solid for the most part, more-so than Ubuntu's stable anyways ). I wish they'd make a Debian Phone....or a Gentoo Phone -- imagine doing an emerge -e world on your phone .
Have you tried Manjaro Linux? Its my current distro of choice (though I still recommend Debian to newer Linux users). Manjaro is like Linux Mint, only based on Arch Linux. I'm using their testing repos and my only issues come from using the latest kernel (3.7.7-ck patch set), it would be rock solid if I had the common sense to stay with the stable 3.6 kernel .
//JellyX bootloops like crazy with Bravo PA, where the Quarx kernel has been rock solid (at least it has for the last 12 hours in the Defy). It'll take ~105 minutes to compile a new build, ~100 more to test and upload...be back later.
//JellyX doesn't like green lens phones -- Defy or Bravo...I've never once been able to use JellyX for more than 3 minutes w\o a boot loop . It usually doesn't even boot for me :crying:.
Yea I liked that version of linux but I run all of the gui off of my mac so i can run something nice but have my server do all the work so basically i just ssh from Mac OS X into ubuntu server (no-gui) and compile away!
And also skeevy if you could pm me with some rom creation help i would be grateful i'm trying to do some work with quarx's 2.6 kernel and getting it to boot with cm7 or even compile for that matter isn't exactly working out :/
-Also do you know a way to slim down the repo manifest so that it doesn't repo sync EVERY DEVICE KNOWN TO MAN!?!?!?
Ubuntu phone OS has just been released (according to softpedia)
sadly it's just the image no source I think :/

Its been a minute, but its possible to slim it down. I'll add it to my list when I get home this evening.
//Slim down CM7 sync
//Defy Soft Sim Unlock doesn't work (I can't test, I IMEI Sim Unlocked me Defy)
//Bravo JellyX (screw Defy users, they have it already )
//Linaro PA Builds

Had a really late day today, just got cleaned up and going to bed . Gonna have another late one tomorrow from the looks of it.
Here's the answer I received from Maniac103 on removing all the devices from CM7 about a year ago. Hope it helps.
In CM7, you need to remove the devices you're not interested in from vendor/cyanogen/products/AndroidProducts.mk; after doing that, omitting them from the checkout should work.
Ok sounds good.
is stable ubuntu for phone out,if it is out can we put it in our bravo,plese tell me i am really excited about ubuntu,..
So, I have decided to compile and get ubuntu running on our devices. I have the TMO Note 4.
If anyone has a donor device, or can give me some pointers I want to get all this running nicely.
No goal is unobtainable.
I will like to see this if we can get dual boot [emoji14]
and what about miui 6? there is recently released miui 6 patchrom. Do you know miui? I am asking you this because we are two and we want to port it but we have weak knowledge. Maybe you can help us
and this is how miui 6 look like
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=34895&extra=page=1&page=1&mobile=no
and there are some of thousands official themes for miui
http://en.miui.com/thread-112322-1-1.html
First of all i don`t think it`s nice of you to come in here and state there's no real custom roms out there for the Note 4, there's a lot of movement in the threads and developers work their butt off providing the latest and the best experience for the device. That said, let`s say i`m willing to give you a N910F donor device for development purpose, what have you got to show for it? Being a newbie ( at least your XDA account shows it ) there doesn`t seem much that shows anything worth to mention.
You sure this ain`t a cheap way of getting yourself a Note 4?

if you already have a TMO n4, why would you need a donor device?
and if dual boot works it's even easier to try it all
but porting Ubuntu does sound like a fun project, maybe you can use cm12 stuff to speed up the porting :fingers-crossed:
and i would love to help but i have no idea about porting and i'm already busy with n4 and s6 edge development
good luck though! :good:
My Apologies

My apologies, you are correct about custom roms. What I meant is we don't have MIUI, Firefox, etc. Yeah skinned versions of Android, yet some people like them.
I want to do something no one else has done, and bring something to the table.

That's all I have now is my ubuntu laptop.
What I found out is ubuntu touch is based on cm10.1.
They don't have 3g/4g/let working for some systems.
I am reading about how to compile. Hensel why I need a donor device, just in case I super brick. Bricking out my only phine would suck.
I haven't figured out how to pm, so if anyone can talk to me like via Skype, and help me learn. PLEASE!

Sounds like a fun project according to me. Did not heard ubuntu ported since note 2.
But have not enough money to give away a note 4.
NOTE 4 running Ubuntu/Windows10
Ladies and Gentleman,
John here, I have spent at least 5 days trying to port windows 10 to the Note 4, (turns out its not possible) windows 10 requires secure boot and bypassing this is a pain in the ass, so I've given up.... it is 5/12/2017 and I've arrived very late to this thread but I got my note 4 out of the drawer and decided to turn it into a portable Linux pc, I spent 4 weeks porting Ubuntu to the note 2 in 2015 and dropped the project because there was many issues getting all the drivers to work but so far porting Ubuntu to the note 4 is working well but it needs quite a bit of glitches to be fixed, im trying to get the 4G gsm module to work and the sound but soon this will be working great and I will share my finished product.

I also have a N910T and am willing/would love to be a part of this and help get Ubuntu working on my Note 4. I will help in any way I can.. I have been searching for a port of Ubuntu for some time now so I was VERY excited when I saw your OP. I know this might sound odd but the main reason I wanted to run Ubuntu was for native development. In the same situation as @sawdoctor I have also been trying for about a year to compile a kernel but for some reason I just can't figure it out ha. I don't have my computer with me during the day but I have my phone and plenty of time so I was looking for a way to compile the kernel source with my device. And although I obviously don't know that much about development, I figured what better way to start that running Ubuntu. It's crazy to me i couldn't find one single guide or post about how to build a kernel with the phone you want to run it on. Seems like it should be easy ha. I have have tried termux, gnu-root, cc-tools, kbox3,........you name it and I have a TB of it ha. So all rambling aside, just let me know what or if you need anything

Not at all, Ubuntu isn't sizing things properly and it's almost impossible to use the touchscreen to click buttons, can only be used with a mouse, just getting otg to work was a pain to plug in a mouse, there's some options In Ubuntu for resizing but they don't help that much.

Hmm. Well maybe resizing everything could be an acceptable approach but if windows and android have different "skins" maybe we could make a custom gnome launcher that works better with the small screen, but as far as the drivers and the kernel, is it stable, and what model have you compiled it for?

Hey bro. Any progress? i just ran across a kde plasma active installer for nexus 7 that uses multirom to flash linux to ext sd. Would it maybe be possible to adapt the script to our device being that we have EFIDroid and Multisystem?
I've been working on porting Halium (needs for Ubuntu touch now) to my device, I haven't gotten the graphics to work yet but with the work I've got done so far we could get the graphics working then get other OSes that support Halium working (I.e. plasma os, sailfish, and possibly even post market os) if your still trying to get this working let me know and I'll contribute what I can to help, I still DD my n910p cause I like the form factor of my note 4, hate the glitchy issues that sprint forced into its software though. I have gotten Ubuntu to boot to a headless system setup, but that's not useful for what my end game is, its just a step in the right direction.
Hello everyone, I have recently started trying to port UBPorts (formerly Ubuntu Touch) to my trltespr, I get the code to start compiling but I keep hitting errors.
https://forums.ubports.com/topic/477/porting-to-samsung-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p
Is the link, in case anyone wants to follow. I created this thread to see if anyone else is trying to do the same thing as well as serve as a general progress update. Im sorry if this is in the wrong spot, but seeing as UBPorts isnt exactly and android OS I wasnt sure where to put it. I know some people may ask why, the simple answer, Im tired of Android and want something different. I am also contemplating porting Halium, if anyone has any interest in helping with either port, or is currently trying and would like to consolidate their efforts with me, please let me know, Ill update this post as well as the thread I linked with updates on what Im doing and how its all going.
Thanks for Reading.
Sorry for the double post, but I managed to get Halium to compile, the kernel to boot, and thats about it so far, running into an issue with getting the rest on the phone, I can post the files and any info to get Halium working if anyone wants it, but that is gonna be when I have a working gui (features are a different story)
#== Edit ==#
Halum is booting into pre-boot, it is having trouble from there though. It mounts the images (system.img and rootfs.img) just fine in the pre-boot environment, however if I try to continue the boot process from there, the phone kicks me out, then refuses any new attempts to connect. I am working on getting my git repo synced with my local repos so anyone that wants to help can do so.
#=== Edit 2 ===#
I managed to get all the files on the phone, phone successfully gets to pre-boot environment and that is where everything falls apart, I'm trying to figure out the root cause of the issue, however its going to be slow going with the Holiday season apon us (those who celebrate at least) I will update when I have something to update with (hopefully a partially working port, but no promises)
Sorry for a third post, I hope mods are understanding since I haven't received any replies to this thread.
So Update since it's been awhile, I now have halium able to boot, I get ssh access and when I ssh in it says Ubuntu 16.04, that's the good news. The bad news now, I still get no GUI on the phone screen, and it appears to be a mount issue which I am working on. I can release the files I have now if anyone wants them, however I prefer to wait till I have a working GUI.
Poll Time,
Once I get ubports to boot and give me a GUI should I work on getting a Ubuntu dock setup working or try and port something like LuneOS, Plasma Mobile, or even sailfish to the note 4? Let me know your thoughts as well as any thoughts you have for ubports on a note 4.
Cheers
Do you try ubports / halium 7.1... Msybe with sources here: https://github.com/underscoremone/unified_android_device_samsung_trlte
Don't know, but maybe you get more support from community
I actually have made a lot of progress from my last post on here. I am actually in the telegram groups which have given me a lot of useful info, I am still trying to get the GUI working though. Thank you for the reply and keep an eye out for a update in the next few weeks (depending on my free time)

Telegram, in fact, is the best place to get help, and the guys behind the ubports and halium are very good.

Update:
I have managed to get Ubuntu to boot and bring up SSH, still no GUI but the android container does start and stay running now. I have a list of things I can try from here to see if I can get a GUI that with any luck I can get working today (depending on RL) I am hoping to have this working and giving me a GUI by the U.S. Christmas holiday. I will post the files as they are now if anyone is interested.
Update Edit:
I finally got the Ubuntu Touch boot screen, It hangs there ATM which I will be working on shortly, I still have a long ways to go before I'd consider it "complete" but I hope it will be completed enough to use as a daily test platform, I could use people to help with testing if anyone is interested.
So Big Update:
I got past the boot screen, I now have a full GUI with working WiFi and working touchscreen. Not much else is working. I could definitely use people to test this distro, so if you are interested in using Ubuntu Touch on a Galaxy Note 4 PM me and I'll get you setup for testing. I only have a sprint variant of the note 4 but if you have a different variant it shouldn't take much to get that working as well.
So the list for anyone interested/curious
Working:
WiFi (doesn't auto-connect)
Touchscreen
GUI
File Access
USB networking
Not Working:
Cellular (ofono is having permission errors)
Bluetooth (haven't looked at yet)
S-Pen (kernel disables it for some reason)
Rotation (sensor values aren't seen)
Audio (haven't looked at yet)
Status Light (works with hybris-boot, not halium-boot)
Vibration/Haptic Feedback (works with hybris-boot, not halium-boot)
I'm sure I forgot something, but that's off the top of my head. I welcome anyone volunteering to help move items from not working to working, if not then I will eventually get there, but don't expect this to be a complete ROM until next year at the earliest.

Sorry for the delayed answer, I only have the S Pen so I cant say for sure.* The capacitive stylus' that you can buy basically anywhere do work though.* I haven't really had time to continue my work on this port, I have made some progress as I can get rotation to work, and there is a lot of things that work in the terminal however they don't carry over to the GUI for some reason.* I can release the files here if you want to try other stylus' and let me know what works for you.
Hello; I have an old Note 4, T-Mobile (US) variant that I'd like to do something interesting with and UBPorts seemed promising. Then I found your thread. How are things going with this project? I would love to test this for you on my device if you think it might be working. Thanks for the all the good work!
There is a T-Mobile port in progress already, there are a couple things left to resolve for this port as well, how would you like to get started?
Its always nice to se new things for our phones.
This one is really a breakthrough for the Note 4
Having a Ubuntu touch working on Note 4 is a whole new level in development in Android phones.
We are very lucky to have so charismatic devs among us, even better if they are working on our phones.
For that, we are thank full @tigerpro357, for what you are doing here.
I know its just the first steps, I know that these are just the beginning, but they are showing us what wonderful things we can expect in the future.
Thank you ,
KUDOS

I'm not really sure... I guess I'd just like to flash it on the phone and see what happens, what works and doesn't.

Ok, I can tell you whats currently not working, or working, I will advise you this is currently not ready to be a daily driven ROM, in call audio doesnt work, YT causes crashes, camera causes crashes (cause I havent finished applying the patch to my repos) theres a couple other things as well, I need to make a propper list for everything rather than go off memory
Thanks so much for the info. Not to worry, I wasn't planning on using it as a daily driver, I really just want to play around with it, kick the tires so to speak.
