there was a clone made a couple weeks ago, called Diazo should be in development section couple pages back
I know it has to have a snapdragon processor, just seeing if anything was around

No. It doesn't.
There is one in development, not sure how good it is, but give it a shot!
it was made by master, wasn't that popular so it might be down on the list! Or go to his profile and try to find it that way!

Wouldn't a dual boot of some other os be nice right about now? whats an os out we should get to dual boot?
None. No other device uses the same hardware as ours and writing drivers for an entire OS is an unbelievable undertaking we don't have the devs for.

They don't have a dev community so not really. So far there has been one successful "jailbreak" that ruins their ability to update forever. Not much of a future there.

The droid incredible can dual boot 2 android roms but that's becouse of its generous internal memory. It would be near impossible for us on our pathetic 400mb or so.

That's what convinced me to come to Android. I had a Windows Mobile 6 phone, and after dual booting with Android for about a month, I realized I liked it a lot better and decided that my next phone would be an Android one. And that was a big deal for me, because I was developing apps for my Windows phone but had never made an Android app before.

The OS has nothing to do w/ whether you can dual boot or not. But more depends on the hardware and and what software and/or drivers the community has put together.
Comming from winmo, I see no reason why anyone would want to go to it from android.

Yeah I know. Just wishful thinking on my part. I love WebOS but the hardware they're giving it sucks beyond sucking.
Is it just me, or does this Ubuntu release seem a lot like the Firefox Mobile project? How?
Well it seems that Canonical is trying to get mobile phone companies to actually adopt this OS rather than letting consumers install it on their devices, like what happens with Ubuntu Desktop OS.
Unless Canonical makes a really easy, simple way to install this on Android, I feel that this project will go the way of the dodo.
Unless of course, some awesome developers turn this into a custom ROM
It's going to be shown at CES (1/8-11/12), with the gnexus image being released soon. They've already said they want community members (it is open source after all) to help porting it to devices.
Now maybe a good time to get my feet wet with some of this fun stuff...the new Ubuntu and an extra One X floating around in my junk drawer.
Ubuntu for SmartPhones
I think its possible to port this in to most of the android phones after seeing the Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth gives the Ubuntu phone OS demo on a GalaxyNexus which is a mainstream Android phone.

It is possible that later a developper changes it so it can be put on your phone but you will need to wait for that
Being sick of Google's and Qualcomm's disenfranchising my ARMv6 device, I am eager to try this baby. This is not an install over Android but a new OS but also Linux. I think that a Dalvik for this, such as the one for Sailfish/Meego, would be necessary for anyone to get into it. No one is going to install it in place of IOS or Windows. So our investment in the Android "ecosystem" would need protecting.
Android is opensource except for various "prebuilt" jni libraries. These are becoming increasing fatal exceptions.
So a complete opensource OS that one can compile for one's architecture would be most welcome. May Ubuntu will be this.
Minimally, the launcher (really, does anyone care what OS is under the hood?), would be a worthy port in itself!
I'm willing to port onto my HTC inc s with some help from the community.
Dead cookies leave no trails...
Same here for my LG P500 (but this phone is short on RAM for this, I am afraid).
Newer Linux Kernels should facilitate this since the Android mods have been incorporated and ARM devices explicitly supported.

Dual core processor with 1.2Ghz or 1Ghz (can't quite remember which), and at least 512MBs or RAM.
If they will port ubuntu (ROM) to all devices, that will be great! :fingers-crossed:

Hi,
As a required prerequisite, CM 10.1 has to be ported over the device, because Ubuntu is built on top of it. As of now there are several aspects that need further work, you can check out OliverG96's device tree on github and give it a try. Most pressing would be sound and calls/sms/data, iirc
Hi there, i have been reading a bit about the new Ubuntu touch OS, and seems quite interesting. I just have one question, is Ubuntu for android the same as Ubuntu touch?
And will running ubuntu on the phone solve the sound lag issues found in most android game emulators?
Thanks in advance.
will s3 mini i8190 take ubuntu os
Because i do not understand , is it possible that s3 mini take the new operating system ubuntu os ? I really want to buy that phone , but i also search a phone that will take ubuntu os. Thank you
Well as it states we have the correct hardware requirements to run Ubuntu OS but we need a good developer to port it to our device.

I don't know your phone but there is a solution that is supposed to work on every phone with Android img files available. I haven't tried it yet. Try it on your own risk! I won't be responsible for any bricks! (I recommend searching the internet about that first.) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2651425
I would suggest a phone with good UT support though. Nexus 4 for example. We don't know how long it will be supported though. They might switch to the newer Nexus 5.

it says the note 2 is supprted but only th At&t model # is listed. any ports to sprint? (i'll check as well, but i need 10 posts to ask in developer spots sadly)
---------- Post added at 06:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 AM ----------
yeah nvm. found it. it's still non-sprint. but there is a spot on the ubuntu website telling people how to port it, i know very little coding but i'll see if i can make heads or tails of it
Actually, a port was started here. It seems he barely got it up and running, not wanting to do any further optimization until Ubuntu Touch was further along. It appears there hasn't been much developement for quite a while. I hope development returns for the Wave I&II, but I suspect the hardware just won't be up to the task.
