If anyone is (still) interested on porting Ubuntu on our phones, they have updated the porting guide for new phones. This guide could greatly help.

Ubuntu Touch source and porting guide is released
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
I wonder if any of our devs started or willing to start working on it. What I have understood from the guide is that porting/building Ubuntu is very similar to CM.
The board is open for discussion.
That would be great!
Hi, im am a bit confused about the porting process.
i've followed the guide https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Porting
and i have the cyanogenmod source for my device, but im having hard time to find where is the system compiling part and generating an image/bootable.
any direction / notes would be helpfull, thanks!
I second your request: In the MDN porting guide, it says that porting is sped up when your device is supported by cyanogenmod. But it would be nice to have some instructions on how this will help.
I have a question for enthusiasts and developers simply understood in this sense. Is it possible to port ubuntu touch to our device? And is it worth?
Yes you can port Ubuntu Touch to your device. It is very similar to porting a CM rom but a bit different. You can check the ubuntu site, there you will find the whole step to step guide for porting it your device.
I've just been reading the hardware porting guide and apparently it can now be ported from devices running nougat, so my question is would any developers be interested in porting? I'll try to lend a hand while I can and I'll be attempting to port myself
I am bored of Android and don't have enough money to buy iphones so I want to try Ubuntu touch but very few Nexus devices are officially supported.
They do have a detailed guide to port it to any other device but i Don't have knowledge about how to build it. I am noob and it isn't my field (I am a Mech Engg Student ?)
So it is my humble request if any dev could build it for Redmi 3sp?
This is the detailed guide:
https://docs.halium.org/en/latest/
I am posting this in ROM thread because i didn't get any response from any dev in discussion thread. Hopefully someone will see this and port Ubuntu touch to land :angel:
I also want to use Ubuntu Touch in my Redmi3S, I searched a lot but it's still unavailable for this device. I'm also waiting to get an Ubuntu ROM for Redmi3S. Hope somebody will build it soon for us!
Afaik ubuntu touch has been discontinued after they shifted to Gnome from Unity.
