Anyone planning to port Ubuntu Touch to the Note 10.1. It seems like any device that can run CM 10.1 can run Ubuntu. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
I think we need a multi boot boot-loader maybe the method like on the nexus 7 IT Rocks can mutiboot several os ..
I have ran ubuntu on nexus not tried touch yet. Maybe i will today later..

A multi boot would definitely be nice but you should be able to backup and restore to previous Android as it keeps the custom recovery.
There's a how-to guide for porting on wiki.ubuntu if someone is capable of doing it:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
Ooo this sounds very cool. I tried to read the wiki but my head almost exploded trying to understand the first bits. So I doubt I am the one to get it. lol!
Ok! According to Ubuntu post on nexus 10 forum they discovered that the Ubuntu touch is actually a Cm10.1 rom with Ubuntu over it and they say that porting is as simple as porting cm to other devices

Hi All Kindle Fire Owners ,
Official MIUI for Nexus 7 is now available , so it's optimized for tablets and compatible with it unlike old MIUI versions
MIUI was always a great ROM with a lot of advanced options and great apps from MIUI Team
So is there any chance that we see a port to our beloved Kindle Fire
And if not may some one explain why it's not possible to do it ?
Thanks
I am trying to do that, but have very little coding experience, but this will enhance it for me. I am also following a guide I found on XDA.

Soon we will start having cyanogenmod version for nexus 4 and at the beginning it will be unstable so I was wondering if any of you tried to install a dual boot on your nexus 4
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager.lite
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.projectlense.bootmenu
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792955
Duel booting is very common on samsung phone s1,s2,s3 implemented into the kernel
but i haven't seen it on a nexus before.
Well Bootmanager lite is compatible with the previous nexuses
I have Boot Manager Pro, I will test it once I get my Nexus 4.
anybody try this yet?
Boot Manager Pro doesn't support Jellybean (yet).
so does anything work to dual boot yet?
There's a multiboot loader available for Nexus 7.
Maybe it will be ported to Nexus 4 some day...
is this possible on the nexus 4?

The creator will not do it because he does not have a nexus 4. So we have to do it ourselves, we can use his sources.
So how do we build it? are there instructions?

I wish I knew what I was doing to do something like this, but can anyone actually do this? If it is done for the nexus 7, I would imagine it should be able to be done for the 4?
I will begin trying to port this for the mako device next days, but I will have the Nexus 4 device in a few weeks only, so I would need some testers. Next weekendI'll post more details about my work if it goes well.

Thanks for giving your help. However I just grab sources from mako kernel and multiboot, didn't begin working on it yet, tomorrow I'll try. First step making kernel having kexec boot method.
Edit : have to dl linux and reinstall my bootloader, a upgrade of my windows made it go away. :s That's ironic, a broken dualboot on my PC prevents me to work on dualboot for the phone. Anyway will begin working on that this evening.
Please do update on this if you get it working. I would like to dual boot Ubuntu and my stock phone OS.

Of course, I'll ask a thread in the dev section when I'l need some testing. I don't promise any result, but think it will be easy to port, just need to spend some time. Will begin tonight.

Hey Folks,
I'm contributing this tutorial video for people that want to make an Android kernel!
Step-by-step tutorial:
http://ohheyitslou.blogspot.com/2011/09/ohheyitslou-custom-android-kernel-guide.html
Things that are needed:
Just check the vid out!
Part 1: Configure, Compile the kernel
youtube.com/watch?v=IV4jhXWc7AE
Part 2: Install your kernel
youtube.com/watch?v=gjN8x8Pfcl0
Enjoy it! :laugh:
Caution: Commands in the video are for Fedora not for Ubuntu, Ubuntu commands are in the step by step guide, above!
Extra:
- If you want to give your kernel extra features like new governors or overclocking, check this guide on XDA-University out!
http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/adding-features-to-your-kernel
- Keep in mind you need to share your source after you've compiled the kernel due the GPLv3 licence. (GPL?)
I give the full credits to:
- OhHeyItsLou (Youtube)
Please rate 5 stars and press Thanks!

Nice tutorial my friend

Ported a ROM for experience sake, but this is what I have been looking for. If a complete newb like myself can do it anybody can.
Will post results in a few weeks. Busy, Busy, Busy.

LOL yeah I'm a little slow here lately. I saw the "YUM" command and jumped to conclusions. Going to try this method out tomorrow for the Galaxy Nexus. Every other guide I've tried has been either incomplete or just wrong. Hopefully this one works! Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

It should work on Ubuntu 12.04.
BTW For earlier than Android 4.0, 32-bit is enough. But if you want to compile a kernel for a more recent version like Android 4.1 and 4.2 you'll need a 64-bit machine!
Keep it in mind!

You can take a look at Emwno's kitchen, it has a feature to pack a compiled kernel to a boot.img.

You need to enable swap in your .config before you compile the kernel. It's in general I think.

That's the Atrix 2 (OMAP), and that's Ubuntu for Android rather than Ubuntu Phone OS.
Ubuntu for Android, as I understand it, is basically the Webtop that we've already had for some time now and uses the kernel already on the device, whereas Ubuntu Phone OS is a complete replacement for Android, but the details themselves are a bit sketchy, like what display server they're using, what kernel is supported. Wouldn't it be both ironic and disappointing if it required an ICS/JB kernel, especially since we still have a Froyo/GB kernel.

yea because it's not really a proof that it is working for our tegra phone. it's a lot different so u have to find a phone that has the same specs this but there is no one.

Yeah, he identifies the device about 10 seconds or so in, but admittedly if he didn't the only other way to identify it would be process of elimination, looking at the logo's and figuring it out that way.
Guys, there's a post of saiftheboss7 that he mention that he made a request to Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu's Guru. You can upvote that request so that the Ubuntu Kahuna sees that us Atrix users want the Ubuntu OS for our beloved A4G. I can't post links right now, too noob for the forum, but you can check it out in this section.
Upvote my friends, upvote and we can have a better functional phone!!!!!:good:

please don't force the devs to support our phone. just let the image release si the devs can see the source code and the system. After that we can ask to import the os to the atrix if it's possible.

I don't think this will be fully working without an ICS Kernel.
I think an effort like this worths a try, since we can aways update the userspace ubuntu packages, keeping the old kernel. I don't see why the old gingerbread kernel wouldn't work.
Hi,
is there any chance to install Ubuntu Touch on Galaxy Tab 4 7?
Or mayby Linux Deploy works?
Dude we haven't even got a recovery which will take months no to mention that which definitely take much longer
Sent from my SM-T230NU using XDA Free mobile app
Expect zero roms for the 7". And by zero I mean no cm, no aokp, no carbon, no nadda. Least not working ones. Touchwiz yeah. AOSP or even touch? Nope. Just ask the tab 3 7 inch guys that have a Marvell chip too
I was wondering the same thing. I guess you could always buy a nexus.
Great, now we have recovery.
