Any information regarding Ubuntu Phone for the S 2 will be posted here.
If possible I will try create daily builds.
(I have Ubuntu 12.12 but no idea how to make a script to build it, so if someone teaches me I can do it nightly)
, since I have lots of bandwidth.

Well depends on your knowledge, but it's not easy, it's quite a job and Ubuntu for phones is right know in pre-Alpha stage so... Yeah it will not be good for any everyday use yet, since you even can't play your own music on it yet
Btw Dev you're going to need to make a factory image for our device also so we can revert back to Android.

@Dev apparently you will be able to flash this via recovery and restore to Android using recovery so if you download their maguro .zip and port it to our devices we'll be able to flash ubuntu using our current kernel Then even the biggest noob can flash ubuntu but dunno what they're going to have it for
People with other devices than the maguro DO NOT install this as it's for the maguro only!
Or if you're a dev going to port it, well then just go ahead.

As I said on the post, with Paranoidandroid, I've got soft reboots with smartassv2 or ondemand.
first reboot they said : SIM card added, restart your device to get wireless network (or something like that) and I have to reboot one more time in order to have a working device.

I've always been a HUGE fan of high DPI and this ROM feels like made for me Apart from few annoyances like soft reboots, I'm thinking of making it my daily driver. Is there a way I can set 600px as default without having to manually apply for each application?

aokp jb audio with n1 dock
Is anyone else having trouble playing media through Bluetooth? Trying to get it to work with y n1 dock but it won't play even tho it says its connected.
Nexus one aokp jb v2.0
Has anyone else been having data network issues with Paranoid Android v1.4? My phone would drop data and only reconnect if I rebooted (most times, ). Thought it might be the radio, no change. So I flashed Spazedog ICS and everything seems to be back to normal.
EDIT: N/M, lost data today intermittently *sigh*.
Hey, I would like to create a Paranoid Android from source for the HTC Desire. I would like to know which donor files you had used in this ROM and how would I include them once I've synced the repositries?
N1 PA Update??
Am I missing something here, or is the last update for the N1/Passion still stuck at 1.97 / 1.4?
Plenty of 1.991 updates on goo.im backup, but none for Passion

CleanROM Inheritance coming to the Nexus 7

Some of you may know me form the TF700 and TF300 Asus forums on XDA.
I have been able to significantly speed up those devices by rebuilding scrosler's CleanROM stock base and tweaking it. I have just successfully done the same on the N7 version and it is flying.
Now I need a few testers to make sure it works for all. The ROM is ready to go now but I will release it in the next few days pending testing.
Anyone fancy a quick stock N7 rom to test? :fingers-crossed:
Pm me please.
VaderSKN is avalaible for testing!

Will this be fore 3G also?

Im running multiboot, and would like to run and test it on that setup.

Any plans to add this fix for empty app-mounted directories?
I am running cleanrom 3.0 with leankernel 1.2 and really like both alot. Thanks very much for your efforts.
My only issue is with mounting ext3/ext4 usb sticks and hard drives. They appear to mount using stickmount but the files aren't visible
in Root Browser or ES File explorer.
I'd like to be able to mount them manually using busybox mount/umount and I think what follows may work without relying on stickmount.
Please have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2106480
Is it possible to add either of these patches to your rom and/or kernels?
Thanks again.

Ubuntu Touch?

Just curious. Is anyone working on a port of Ubuntu Touch for the RAZR i? If the answer is yes then awesome, if not then I'm gonna give it a shot. Would you guys be interested in using it?
Sent from my XT890 using Tapatalk 2
I'd be interested in using it.
Sent from my XT890 using xda app-developers app
I was just reading up on it and officially they use cm10 as a base but they say you can also use an aosp ROM as a base. That means I could theoretically use the retail EU ROM for the RAZR i as the base and make porting a lot easier
Sent from my XT890 using Tapatalk 2
I'd be interested if it's installable as a dual-boot (and yes, that's possible; look at the HP Touchpad (which I also have) which now dual-boots Ubuntu Touch and webOS).
Dual booting would totally be possible. Just have to use a boot loader that can handle it. Don't think there exists a custom boot loader for the RAZR i yet though. Although I don't think it would be too difficult to install syslinux for example.
Sent from my XT890 using Tapatalk 2
Maybe we could use moboot like the HP Touchpad? It's open source so in theory we could compile it for the Razr i.

It's definitely possible. And even easier than porting an android rom. You can use any aosp ROM as a base. Ubuntu just needs the kernel the drivers, and the radio. That's it. There are step by step instructions in the Ubuntu wiki on how to "plug in" these files into Ubuntu touch, then you compile, and flash using adb. It's fairly straight forward. Once it's working, I'll work on porting a boot loader that supports multiple partitions. I know that's possible because I'm currently dual booting cm10 and Arch Linux on my evo 3D.
Sent from my XT890 using Tapatalk 2
I'd be interested in trying it out, but I also want to encourage this because it sounds like it would give us a good AOSP base to work off of for other Android ROMs.

Devs waiting for ubuntu touch to be stable.. Then they will port it. Just see the ubuntu touch thread for more updates.
I get the idea that they should wait for the stable release, but wouldnt it be easier to get wifi, sms, phone working now?
Anyway great work devs

Not quite. pawitp's said in his Ubuntu thread that modifications need to be made in order for sms and other phone capabilities to work. And these ports are made directly using Ubuntu's source code. So until they update it with the neccesary modifications needed in order to get GSM and data working, its not very likely we'll see functional ports past the current stage.

So pawtip is waiting for the final code to be released because then the modifications needed will be there or will be updated??

Possibly. It might be updated if the needed sources are released.

In this recent review, the newly finished Sms, calling and power management capabilities have been shown.
So basically this is good enough to have all basic operations of a phone like wifi,3g,calling,sms,camera etc.So it's very much possible to have functional ports now .

So will we get Ubuntu touch running on our Beloved GT-I9000?
