Dear developer friends
i just saw Firefox OS running on Nokia N9 phone
just asking if it is possible since it has some new features and based on HTML5 web standards as core system, to port it to HTC HD2.
thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english :good:
It will be done if there is interest and potential..

MMmm... Sorry to interrupt but I think he/she was not talking about that.
To be exact the question was if it was possible to get Firefox OS << yep is clickable. To the HD2. And for a quick answer yes it could be possible, just go and inspire a dev or learn how to dig up from the source. Here
In resume... Can be possible and please don't confuse it with the browser.
Cya
I would love to play around with it aswell. :laugh:
Yes this would be pretty cool. Imagine its pretty doable for the devs that have done all the Android work. I have managed to download the source and build the emulator but that is about as far as my knowledge can take me lol
Maybe we can do a pool (are you interested in FireFox os on HTC HD2 : yes or no) like in the meego port to show the devs we are intersted.
Like if we can get many yes's i am sure one of our devs would start tinkering
I would really appreciate it if there will be a ff os sometime
Is there any progress?

I'm currently working on a port of B2G (firefox os) for the HD2.
Edit: compiling as of 11:00 PM EST
Edit 2: compiling failed. Will reattempt with different sources soon.
FireFox OS on HD2? really?
me three
Personally I would love to see this. I humbly offer my services as a tester if anyone does produce anything that needs testing.
Any progress on this one?
Did Mozilla release Source code for the system? If yes, id like to test if not attempt to build this over the summer.

Are you compiling with Mozilla sources?
And is this running on a particular kernel? like android kernels run ubuntu phone?
I think any dev will port it for us.

Hey guys.
I am new to android developing.
I started by porting the CM10.1 ROM from HTC Desire, but my phone is stuck at the Huawei logo when it boots up.
I can still flash another ROM, but that is not the problem.
I want to know how to fix this. I want it to go past the Huawei Logo.
By the way, I used this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713 and I used Aurora ICS 5.0 for the base ROM. I know it doesn't have the same version of android, but there is no reason I shouldn't be experimenting like this.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Need to ask something
Hey again.
I haven't had time to do anything to my phone yet.
I am replying to ask if there is an awesome tutorial out there that could help me with this porting?
Currently, to port my ROM, I replaced files in port ROM from base ROM. Should I replace files in base ROM from port ROM?
Thanks for the help.
Hi Again
Hello.
I found out that there was a problem with the base ROM.
I have ported CM10.1 from U8800! Yaay!
But there are four things that are not working:
- WiFi
- Bluetooth
- Cam Recording
- Sound
Can you guys tell me how to fix the audio? In the logcat, it says that there is no sound output.
Thanks

Hey guys.
I've got the log attached to this reply. Have a look at the audio events and see what is wrong. I can't figure it out by myself.
Thanks

I have just ported the Jelly Bean from u8800pro to u8800non-pro, so I will be working on this ROM.
Seriously, I have no idea when I will be releasing a fully functional ROM. Because I have my studies as well, so I don't get much time to work on the ROM.
The audio is working in this ROM (wasn't working in the previous port),
The things that are currently not working are:
- WiFi
- Bluetooth
- Video Recording
I will try my best to do as much as possible.
I am new at building android ROMs, so please don't expect too much from me
I will be needing some help from other developers as well.
Do you think I should make a thread for this? or is there already enough not-fully functional JB ROMs there?
Thanks.:good:
Lololololol ridiculous!
Another porting, same issues...
How many are now? 4, 5 Jelly beans?
Ooo man, some times is just better to stay quiet....

I know how you feel. I also feel that way.
I would like to build Jelly Bean from source, like Blefish is doing right now, but I need a 64bit computer for that (mine is only 32bit. Unless there is a hack for this, I can't build from source.
I think everyone is going to start porting Jelly Bean ROMs until one starts working. :silly:
Everyone is porting the rom with the intention of making ir fully working and then abandon development. Why don't you and others continue the work that is already done instead of making a new port which will end up like the others.
Like your are having compatibility issues due to your 32bit computer, perhaps our device is incompatible with JB...

Our device will remain compatible with every new android untill android will be using some new architecture of processor, so "sometimes it's better to stay silent".
OP, abandon your trials of getting a working JB using copy-paste ports. It can be only ported from source.
P.S.: just install ubuntu x64 and try to build something like CWM recovery out of forumber's source. If it builds, you can build anything you want. Today's computers know how to emulate x64. I'm myself using an old pentium d 820 (i386, sse2 and that's all) and I can build.

That I don't know for sure but I believe our is. But why 4 or 5 JB around, all with exactly same issues
Now I and others also pick up a JB Rom, mod it here and there and then instead of 4/5 roms we can have dozens. Then again non working well. This makes sense?

Because most of devs or those who like to be called developers don't have required knowledge and then leave the project as an excuse.

So I can install ubuntu x64 on my x86 laptop? Are you talking about a virtual machine or installing ubuntu x64 on the actual laptop?
And as for others: Instead of saying that JB is not compatible with our device and all that sh*t, why don't you encourage me and give me some solutions.
Anyways, I am not posting this JB ROM until it's fully functional, because I might stop development as well (getting interested in firefox os).

First of all,your CPU must support x64,If it supported,you can install x64 to you computer.
If you want install x64 system in virtual machine (like VirtualBox),you CPU must support VT-x or AMD-V (virtualization).
You can check virtualization and x64 support via SecurAble;

Any devs planning to port to Motorola devices?
There is no porting to be done unless you know how to port the emulator thing from x86 to ARM which is incredibly difficult, at the very least, wait for an ARM based image to be emulated through the SDK, or an ARM based phone to be released with it, but even then it will still be difficult.

Hi all,
Is there any chance to run Sailfish OS on a non-Jolla phone? I would prefer a bigger screen and I'd prefer to not wait for their phone.
Assuming that the drivers from Android are compiled for the same Linux kernel version as I want to run in Sailfish, they should be loadable.
So then it's just a question of whether Sailfish is written to use the same devices (in /dev) in the same ways.
Anybody know?
Cheers.

First of all, Sailfish is not yet released to public, and most propably wont be before Jolla phone hits markets. So you can't get it before

Nobody knows yet, because nobody hasn't been able to have a look at it, since it hasn't been released. But I doubt that the kernel would match, since it doesn't even match on different Android phones. There are always some minor changes.

in android devices in /dev very often is used from binary blobs.
and this blob compiled againts another libc called bionic and it is not compatible with glibc, but Jolla phone will use android drivers via special library.

Well, the Sailfish OS runs on linux kernel thats for sure and soon it will have the capability to run almost all of the android apks, which means it can not be totally different form android form 'under-the-hood' so there is always some room to try it on your android devices.
I haven't really tried to explore Sailfish OS much, but if u do, plz tell me and I would like to do it on my phone (Moto xt910).
If you come across any guide for installing Sailfish OS on non-jolla phones, plz post the links here.

you should understand that nobody care about your motorola or what ever device you own. 3.5 developers that can build nemo mobile image will not do it just because of your request.
If I remember right the first demo shown of it was on a nexus phone. so of course it will run on android phone.

Silica components and that fancy home screen are not open source
I must admit I really like this OS.. even if it is similar to blackberry 10 for some aspects.. if this os will be avaiable for rooted android phones, i will certainly install it on mine!
I'd install it fast if my phone could get this (LG L5), but I think it's too weak on it. Maybe Sony Ericsson xperia neo would take this.

since the N9 port of Sailfish OS is now available:
h**p://jollausers.com/2013/12/the-comprehensive-guide-to-port-sailfish-to-n9/
and the arm chipset in the N9 (OMAP3630) is equal to many Android devices like the Defy+ h**p://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OMAP it would be nice to hear that someone begins with the porting to other Android devices. Hopefully also for my Droid 4 (OMAP4430).

Gather 10 skilled devs to work around 3.18.xx for a few months and you'll have a pretty decent stable core with quite a few benefits ...but kernel isn't like roms, needs fine tuning and when we're talking about upped versions there are some restrictions, you need to create workarounds for some stuff and some devs don't like to do that and since we've got no actual open source drivers workarounds are inevitable

I think @erorcun was working on 3.10 and then 3.18 before his screen broke.
I don't know how common it is for devices to have merged or official kernel jumps, but I remember the S3 starting with 3.0 and ending at 3.4. CM builds got it first and then miraculously followed suit in the final OTA, which nobody who cared about their bootloader ever took.

Well oneplus won't give you anything ..that's a sure thing. Usually they don't up the kernel version. You get a phone with 3.10 it will die with 3.10.
The real problem comes with the drivers of the device. In order to get a real fully functional kernel without workarounds we need the help of qualcomm, would they provide drivers so we can have a real 3.18 kernel with proper support from android o? ...of course not, why do that when they can sell you a new phone with better SoC(they have a company to run and to do that they want to sell SoC ...so you should buy a new phone )
