I want to get into the Sailfish family, and as the title suggests, do you know of any device that would work under Verizon USA, that would preferably have Sailfish OS natively installed on it?
If not, is there any other device that would work under Verizon but also support the Alien Davlik? The way I understand it a device that does not natively run SFOS can not use the Alien Davlik.

Asger
You can't. We don't have install images for WP8; it's only available pre-installed. Even if we did, we don't have the drivers for GS4 hardware.
Currently, if you want WP8 on your device, you need to buy a WP8 device. That's also true for Windows RT, incidentally, since you didn't indicate which version of Windows you wanted...
Even if we had the install image, drivers, and a flashing tool that recognized the WP8 image format... it would probably just reformat your phone. Dual-booting would be much more difficult still.
Thank you for getting back to me, well all i wanted is any latest windows which would be compatible with the s4 something sortbof like nokia lumia os but ill hang on and lets see what comes out later on thanks to you guys doing all the hard work

The "Lumia OS" is called Windows Phone (not just Windows; that's a very different OS despite the stupidly similar name). The current version, WP8 (plus minor updates) is what you would get on, for example, the ATIV S (which has hardware nearly identical to the Galaxy S3). There is not yet any Windows Phone device with the hardware specs of the S4, but they're coming. However, even then, don't expect to be able to flash WP8 to an Android device. It might become possible, later, but it would take a lot of work.
Understood thanks alot for the update bro

Im surprised to see no ones brought this up in the S5 forum or over at Ubuntu. Isnt there anyone working on multiboot rom or way to dual-boot linux from sd card on the S5? If not, why?

Didn't search the forum before posting?
There are any number of variations on multi boot from Hashcode's Safestrap here to Tasssadar's multiboot for Nexus. And related proprietary modes that resemble user profiles e.g. Samsung's kids mode.
Google had also announced that full multi-user profiles would be supported from 4.2 /4.3 forward. But they subsequently restricted the feature to tablets and haven't done much with it since.
But you are probably thinking more about booting into something like Kali linux There have been a few threads about that. And it has been done for the S4, Note, Nexus, etc. A bit soon to expect it on the S5 as it has only been released for a couple of months. And it's a new processor too. Do you want to develop it for is?

Thanks for the reply. I did search "Ubuntu" and "Linux" within the S5 forum but nothing but a firmware dump or porting popped up. I'm new to Android and a bit wary of risking device trying to piece together methods from other devices. I don't care about Kali, just Linux OS i can boot into, not needing to vnc into a virtual environment.
Hello all
I was wondering if there will be AOSP/CM ROM for this device, not a single ROM is available and no dev is interested to work on such a great device.
Such a totally crap device, still stucked on 5.1.1 since launch, no dev is interested in the development either, where android n announced already, we are still waiting for Android M update, i wasted my money on such a **** device, will never buy a sammy mid range in future, m totally fed up with this
I think because there are few developer with that phone and they can't test their work. You can port ROMs such as CM to you phone by your self. There are tons of guides and forums. All u need is a linux OS (such as ubuntu, debian and others) and sources.

yep, I'm on kali and I use windows 10 to play games, so the only thing is: take care when partitioning. After you installed ubuntu there is a bootloader called "GRUB" and there you can choose if you want to boot windows or linux
I need to install an Android version that uses Dalvik/Java and not ART, any way this can be done? And/or "dual boot" your phone?
No. You can use an Android emulator on your PC, on the other hand. Buying an older phone like the G2 would make more sense to me.
Maybe, but dunno if the device drivers or chipset would support anything older. Who knows, you might be able to compile a CyanogenMod build based on KitKat or something.
As mentioned above, use an emulator or dual boot Android on PC. Check out the Android x86 project and the official Android emulator.
I repaired my nexus 4. (I bought a secondhand broken device to install a kali nethunter)
I wanted to install kali nethunter, but I don't think it's supporting my device anymore as the version has been updated.
I tried to download version 1.1, but I couldn't find a possible site.
Does anyone have a solution or 1.1 version?
Just yesterday I installed it on a Galaxy Note 10. The list of compatible Galaxy devices ends with Galaxy Tab S4 (Oreo). I'm running Android 11 on a rooted Note 10, lol. What I did was flash the "Generic ARM64". It flashed fine but not a whole lot actually works though. The kali-terminal is probably the best thing about it. You have a Nexus 4, it looks like Nexus 5 and above are on the list. I'm not saying you should, I'm just letting you know that the Generic one worked for me.

Nexus 4 has ARMv7 so Generic might not work.
@131101 It can also brick your phone, just be careful.

Doesn't ARMv7 support ARMhf?
Let's us know what you decide to do. I should have mentioned to be careful of the ARM version and that it's the same as the version you install, if you install any at all.
Oh yeah, I forgot to meantion that you can and probably should extract the zip file and find the .apk's and install them rather than flashing the zip. I have a rooted S8 with a locked bootloader and I can't tell the difference from the phone I flashed the zip on and the one I manually installed the apk. Most things don't work equally on both, lol.
