Hi!
If I remember right, there was a problem with Chainfire 3D under Jelly Bean OS that resulted in soft bricking the phone. Has this issue been fixed yet? If not, is it possible to install ICS 4.0.4 somehow on Nexus 4 (Chainfire 3D works with ICS) ?
Odp: Nexus 4+Chainfire 3D OR ICS ?
Yea. +1.

Yes, you can also install a full copy of Mac OSX 10.9 and dual boot it with windows 8 ultimate

Not to be snarky, but you can. It's called a hackintosh.
To answer the OP's question, seeing as how the app hasn't been updated in a while, I wouldn't risk it. Also, the nexus 4 will never see ICS. It just won't work. It's like trying to forward-port iOS 3.1.3 to the iPhone 5. The OS was never meant to run on that hardware, and the drivers are not compatible.

Looks like we have to wait when chainfire3d will be updated to work with JB.

Haven't been updated since 3 oct 2011.
So don't wait for it, he has stopped this project.
Sorry for my bad English.

Doesn't work, because Firefox OS is ICS based, and the Nexus 4 was shipped with Android 4.2. Too bad!
The FFOS is ICS based, this is true, but there is an update making it 4.x compatible as well. Gonna take a look... Def want that on this Nexus 4
powered by my Nexus 4 on Avatar ROM! :beer: :beer:
Any progress on this? I am a little overwhelmed when looking at building as OS, trying to learn though. If I could I would build this for my N4 for sure.

It doesn't exist for the Nexus 4 because it can't run ICS.
But if you want to compile it for a device that runs ICS, check here.
Nexus 4
Theres no point getting it its rubish. Android is better. I recomend u get android 4.3 rom

Hey everyone.
i was wondering if i could have Timur's great kernel for USB Host power management AND be able to boot in ubuntu or other android roms, using amazing MultiRom?
i found that i have to use a patch or sth. like that, but i have no idea what i should do.
can anyone give me a step by step guide? noob proof?!!
Timur's kernel already includes the kexec-hardboot patch. When installing Ubuntu with MultiRom you are to select "Don't share kernel with Internal ROM".

Yes, Timur added the patch several months ago. And when you install ubuntu, you dont need to pick dont share kernel. The way multirom is set up, you cant share the kernel, because when you choose ubuntu as the medium, the option is automatically removed.

I installed the kernel, bud i cant boot into ubuntu touch.

So something is wrong.

I should have been more clear. The 2013-01-24 kernel does not have tje kexec patch. He implemented it after that date. Use the cm kernel from april or may.

Is it ok to use cm kernel on stock rom? :S
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
Cm means cyanogenMod, right? So installing the cm kernel on stock rom may harm my device, and the stock kernel doesnt support kexec, right?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
So, my problem gets worse. Can anyone give me a link to stock kernel?

Hi there,
I already build CM 10.1 for my mako with Ubuntu and flashed sucessfully using this tutorial.
But I really don't get along with linux. We just don't like each other.
Is there any good tutorial for building on Windows? Is it even possible?
Greetings
Nope, not possible directly on windows. You can run Linux inside a virtual machine if you want.

Has anyone tried Ubuntu on new nexus 7?
like this
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation
That's for the first gen nexus 7 right? I've actually wanted to try it but don't want to be the first to mess with that until I got a confirmation that it works on 2nd gen tab. Because i would like to run Ubuntu on it to work on my programming on the go without having to carry my laptop.

We'll still just support the old Nexus 7 for now, as we first need to
start the port for the latest device. It should work, but the main
problem is that the device is based on Android 4.3 by default, so it
requires us to make our layer compatible with that as well (at least
the 4.3 based binaries).
Don't have the device, so can't give more details, but don't see why
not (we would at least have the same possibility to distribute
binaries, so we could also produce such a build once the port is
done).
Cheers,

The developer of MultiRom reached his goal on his Indiegogo campaign, so we should be getting it soon.
