Nexus 7 - Ubuntu Touch Ports to Android

Is it still possible to install on nexus 7 although not supported by ubuntu installer and multiboot
I'm thinking its possible from cwm
Which roms would be used..

Are you referring to the first gen n7(grouper), or the n7 2013(flo)? I don't think it's official support, but multirom manager will install Ubuntu touch on flo. I've played around with a couple roms that way, and the basic features seem to work, although it still feels like a pretty early build, and I haven't been able to get things like bluetooth working.

I tested it with the older version and a full blown version of Ubuntu both were not very good so I've upgraded and have the new nexus 7 coming today which is supported by Ubuntu touch, looking forward to seeing and trying it on the tablet

If you would actually go to the page or look at the URL, you would see that it's Ubuntu Touch.

aNYONE WORKING mAEMO (oR FUTRE mEEGO) TO WORK ON x1?

Any posibilities?
first lets get android to woks properly on X1, before going for Mego or maemo.
write the title normal then people might even consider coming here...
why work on android when meego/maemo is way much better.
what is meego / maemo???
maemo is based on linux (nokia n900) meego.... successor of maemo

The new Nokia OS, N900 has maemo

Maybe because android porting is already at 3/4 while maemo is 0.

Thats just your personal opinion.
I say yes, but not same people as android, so android porting wont slowdown. And if same developer would do it, i'd say first make android port good enough for everyday use.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK ON THE X1??

The n900 version will boot into the console, with correct kernel and settings, this is probably not what you want.
Any linux will work, the kernel needs some work yet. You will not have a fully working phone.

Running Windows XP on Android [Update: Windows 2000 and screenshots added]

Hello,
i'm currently trying to set up windows xp via virtualbox on android 2.3.4 MIUI ( HTC HD2 EU). I've SDL installed, image created with virtual box, but the image has a *.vdi extension. And it seems that SDL can't handle this. Any idea to convert VDI2IMG?
Update(06/29/11):
- Testing some more ms operating systems...
- images now created with QEMU
- Sorry for the screenshot quality (HTC Touch 2)
!HELP WANTED!

If i get it to work, i will upload the package, but without the windows xp image.
So it is booting up to the splash screen now and then FC maybe i have to decrease the ram size...
I've uploaded some screenshots (bad quality, 'cause taken with HTC Touch2) with the boot menu of windows xp and the BSOD on the HD2. Currently creating a new image with 128MB RAM...hope that one works
Edit: screenshots are on 1st post now
thats epic dude, a real blue screen of death on our HTC HD2.
I don't think windows will work correctly on HD2.. better use ubuntu with wine or something better.. =)
Nice try man but i don't think that Windows XP should run on our HD2.
Did you tried with Windows 95? They should work i believe... but who wants Windows 95 on their phone!

Yes, i've tried Windows 95. But i want to test some other Microsoft OS, if they where running on the HD2. Today i will try Win98/2000. Maybe they will run better

So it seems that Windows XP failed to run, now loading up Windows 2000...i dont give up for now! More in a few minutes...
uploading Windows 2000 Pro now...
boot loop
I didn't think XP or 2000 would run in an ARM processor environment?

Here is the answer: yes and no i have to modify the configuration, maybe it works after that correctly.
And... it's just an emulator like vmware but for android and wm devices ...and it should work!
So Windows 2000 displayed the spash screen as shown in the attachment, but then BSOD

Ubuntu CM Question

Hey guys,
I haven't been caught up on the development for the touchpad, and I am dual booting CM10 with WebOS and I was wondering if it was possible to install Ubuntu with android already on the touchpad or would I have to remove Android first?

Thanks!! could i just use the smackme 2.0 installer (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2132703)? and if so would i have to delete the android OS first?
No you will not have to remove anything, smackme and the instructions for which Linux Distro that smackme supports should be in /other touchpad development.

even though ubuntu touch is available for devices like nexus 4, it is still in development phase.....
It might soon be available with good app support but currently it is unavailable

[Q] Looking for someone to help port Ubuntu touch to my KFHD tate

Sorry bro. Ubuntu touch isn't working on the Tate yet and I doubt it'll be any time soon.
Sent from my GT-i9100 running CM11
It used to work, but then Ubuntu changed things and made it extremely difficult to get it working (even @Hashcode couldn't do it. I tried to work with him on it for a little bit, but we never got it working)
there was incomplete documentation. now there is no doc.
This might be OT, no need to reply to this.
How about flashing CM11 and then installing some other chroot linux. Fdroid has at least two debians that run by chroot.
The last CM11 snapshot from november works fine on my tate so it should be a stable base for a chroot linux.
