Today W10 has been released for the Xiaomi Mi4... A snapdragon based device... Do we have any chance to port it?

Because if it can it is fun that it's posible.
In theory it should be possible. But it is an way different OS than Android

Yes, but also Mi4 is a native Android phone!
I guess that bl for running w10 is closed source so it will be hard

Mario,
It depends on the popularity of the device, the Mi4 will be sold more than the Note 3 due to Xiaomi's popularity in China!
It's certainly possible but keep in mind Windows 10 has been fully developed for the mi4. It is not a port and there is full support from Xiaomi on all the hardware.
If you're curious you should read HTC HD2 roms that were developed, this device runs almost any mobile OS. It's from 2010 and now there is also Android 6.0 being developed for it. Lollipop runs on it already. Let alone older versions of Windows Mobile.

Yes, the HD2 is a legend... So... Sammy will never give support to a project like this... (Sadly)
That would have been a great port anyway! I still hope in a porting... Even unstable

I would love to have it ported on N900. I might even try port it to N900 as soon as I can get hold of some sort of image... Anybody else still interested in giving their N900 new life?
U are joking? Sailfish will never work on n900,so do not even dream about it.

Why not. It can be ported there, since Mer and Nemo already were. But it doesn't mean that it'll work there smoothly, since N900 has quite a limited RAM. See https://identi.ca/conversation/97151426#notice-98031241

Yes it is possible. Mer is already running on it so you just need the Sailfish UI. But it won't run smooth. It will be nearly unusable. So why should you really invest time to port it?
It would've been cool if it would run. I;ve tried running android on my n900 back in the day, but that was never smooth. I don't except jolla will either
N900 nitdroid-jolla

The N900 was a device i will never ever forget. My first step into Linux systems. for the record, I was able to install and fully use Nitdroid except for receiving and making calls. Back then also, developers on various android forums were promising a complete version. it even built an auto installer for android GB installation. unfortunately due to nokia/android restrictions, it did not reach final stages..
I did not check how jolla looks,.but i am sure it can be done. not a perfect working UI but perhaps like nitdroid.

and you still asking?
Iam sleeping and seeing my reborned n900 on new OS
dont listen them, you doing right thing :good:
Even if you could get the drivers working (quite doubtful) and put one of the newer Android Kernels on it, performance would be disastrous. The Jolla (on hardware ~4x as powerful) is anything but a fast, smooth phone with Sailfish on board. The N900 would barely function, IMO.
Total waste of time.
Sorry for my ignorance,
So apps for Mer and sailfish are almost compatible?
Are they using QT libraries?

Hi Falks,
I was owning a n900, and now ordered a new one. I have looked back in Maemo , nothing really changed til left, just got some pain recently with closed doors on huawei and apple. And really want a physical keyboard and total freedom , and out of the box coming with terminal....
Do we have any alternative these days the last Linux phone which had keyboard was n900 (n950 prototypes also but discontinued). I can't beleive there were no devices made for geeks. And yeas more I use touch screen in last days more I miss the keyboard. So any devices newer ARM anfra more ram and physical keyboard??? Do we have like this, and device should come with only flasher bios/bootloader included , not with any chain, I am wondering if maemo as OS would continue that would be nice, but there are rly small people working things there, more or less DYI everything. I assume development for mobile devices are now much more easier SDK + IDE is basic. With proper OS libraries almost everything easy to port, except gui, but there we need strong libraries and guidences how to use them, or ultimately has a fallback library to the original source system UI with virtualization... There wasn't really easy to dev for eg maemo as ansi C was the main, then ok Pyton, and maybe they got a good C++ compiler, but all of above relies on SDK and OS libreries/refrences....
So any n900 like mobile these days, and I am asking for real items not for failed kickstarter stuff
MOD EDIT: Thread closed. Please see this thread for more information.

Never, the phone is fully closed and it won't be possible to run anything else then WP. Best thing to do is sell it. (Or trow it out of a window and have more fun then you can have with Windows Phone:good

it's very sad to read this, i was wondering the same about to port sailfish to any lumia device, and now that seems to be impossible. i think that the best thing to do it's buy and android and wait for any sailfish rom.

If you want a phone with the (best) ability to flash other OSs (ie sailfish, Ubuntu touch, firefoxOS), get a nexus device.

I'm getting this device by the end of this month because, comparing to the Vodafone Smart V8, it gets the best bang for my buck at the moment.
I wanted to know if I could install Windows 10 on it, it doesn't even have to be stable working or all but since you can install it on a Xiaomi Mi4, maybe its possible to do the same on this device (yes I know the specs and the model are different).
Why install Windows 10? As a tech enthusiast, basically I just wanted to do it and see it could be done, nothing more nothing less than a proof of concept.
Would be nice if you could install it and dual boot but a geek can dream, question is, is it possible and has someone tried doing it already?
Thank you.
Nope.
I too would like to see it. But the possibility is slim. I don't think we would get an official Windows 10 ROM for an android one device. I hope someone manages to port it tho.
And the MiUi ROM from Xiaomi Mi 5X?

No way for Miui for now, and especially windows.
Very little people use windows mobile so there is little to none interest for developers, and has been droped by Windows itself.
Guys can any developer can port sailfish (non android ROM) to our land like one ported it to redmi 2S(I don't remember model lol?) .ITs great ROM but need some fixes and it looks very cool works smooth so can any Dev?
It sucks...
Yup it sucks. My friend has a xperia on which he flashed sailfish os and it sucks

You guys have no idea how great Sailfish OS is. True that it doesn't looks good first obviously because you got used to Android just like you got used to windows than Linux.
I guarantee you you will love Sailfish OS if you use it for few days. Try it out before you come to any conclusion.

This will not work. OneUI requires the Samsung framework.
Why oh why? Better sell and buy samsung if this is a must have feature

Confused ?
Samsungs OS is heavy and a bit of a mess, porting it would be hit and miss even with talent and a lot of time.
I think I can save you the bother though.
It's not a very good OS.
Plus if you've give OnePlus a few years they'll probably have copied it completely.
Nah I'm joking, but it is a crap OS, buy a Samsung if you want a Samsung. It's the best way and probably the only way.
Samsung = bull**** overload. They are the leaders of bloatware.
I still using it Samsung Note 10+ 5g if Oxygen OS can be ported to the phone. More. The Note 10 section is allmost only for exynox models and 1,2 topics about the better european model, with Snapdragon..
Oos ob2 rom.zip = 2.8gb
OneUI 2.5 rom.zip - 5.8 gb (talking about Bloatware...)
must be the dumbest question I've heard it a while? u want a bloated software sell op and get ur urself this samsung phone
It's easy to make rum free of bloatware apps. I have experience in this regard, but I have no knowledge of ROM port.
Everyone shamed this topic but I'll also be happy if someone manage to port it. I'm not dev but I try to help.

Website looks semi ok, only way anyones going to know is for someone to give it a go.
If it works then you're a hero.
If they've managed to get the Sammy stuff to work then bravo, that's awesome

It could very well be a load of crap.
Like I said, you'd be a hero if it works.
But you could also be a bad exercise
