Hello all.
Do you think it's possible to work on an Ubuntu port from nexus 4 for our devices?
Maybe someone is already working on it. If yes could you tell us please.
Thanks you devs for your hard work!
Maybe image from n7 would be easier to port since it is tegra 3...
all i can say would love to se this tested out due to the Nexus 7 sharing the tegra 3 but there is alot of other issues at hand that may be different but the dev have made wonders of previous things.
Yes I agree with you. Deva are really goods here. I'm a noob in Linux dev. So n7 image is ready to download it's why I asked this question... I would like to try but I don't want to brick my phone... But I'm really interested to try Ubuntu...
An official porting guide will be availllable at 15pm... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
We want to see ports for our HTC One X Some developers already ported it to SGS3.
I think is better wait for a port when radio and other works.
Because, the first image, have the radio off, kernel is unstable and a lot of pics are fake
To anybody else trying: can you get the "phablet-dev-bootstrap" command to work? 'Cause I can't.
I'll try at home... Work in progress for one x+... Maybe it's will be easier to port it...
Sorry for question but i'm interesting: why port a pre-alpha release when don't work anything?
I think in 2 months there are new release with a stable kernel and with radio on

Because of.... I need it! I want to give it a try and most probably, whenever it becomes a bit more usable, we won't have to start everything from scratches.
I'm trying to do something with the port, can't assure anything... no enthusiastic comments please!

It was an info question
I think is better take a port when it will be more usable but we are free and my it was a question!
Don't worry mate

no problem! I think that it will be a maintainment and not a new start!

Well, i have a friend with gnexus, he tried ubuntu and: the kernel is unstable and is laggy
So, i think radio is important, because you can use wifi and signal network...

As you all know "Ubuntu for phones" has been released for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. Lets discuss about this being a possiblity to port on our device.
A porting guide will be posted on Ubuntu website on 22nd (which is today in India).
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting#Stay_tuned.21
Great my fingers-crossed hope we can take advantage of Ubuntu in our phone

Dual Boot
Just curious, the porting guide says that Ubuntu runs over the stock kernel, if it's right, would it be possible to run it in dual boot?
Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) is having official support and currently the port is work in progress. Apart from the system partition size issue, if samsung galaxy s can run it, so can defy. This is very early stage and we can only presume such thing.

Should not be, most of the phones which can run cm 10.1 can easily handle this. Building it too doesn't look much difficult. "Ubuntu for phones" is surprisingly based on CM sources.
I've not enough speed for syncing sources, maybe Kayant or m11kkaa can build it for us.

Till it gets stable enough to worth porting, we will probably have CM 10.1 and kernel 3.0 working perfectly
A little update
I have successfully compiled the the ubuntu zip for our defy however, am facing a major issue at the moment which is the prebulit image that is needed to flash before installing the defy zip is not being installed for some reason Am currently trying to find why this is but no luck so far...... I think I may be something to do with our data partition..... maybe the preimage is too big for it??? that am not sure but I have just reduced it by deleting some images and videos included in the demo..... Hopefully it will decide to work this time
Edit - that did the trick it's working now ^_^

Hello!
I am an ubuntu user since 2006 or so and was quiet happy to see the news about it on phones but the hardware requirements are a bit stronger than what our device has. I remember something about minimum dualcore processors and 1 Gb ram. But if someone manages that'd be fun

What exactly do you mean Is the phone not booting pass the black screen after the moto logo.... if so you need to make sure you have wipe data if not the quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip won't be installed and flashed the quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip first or it will never boot.

Important: Only devices running at least Android 4 (aka Ice Cream Sandwich) are supported. If your device is listed above but running an older version of Android, please update it before doing anything.

Before you start your team needs a device to begin porting with. I recommend The Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 its a very good device and I could test the rom/OS
Hey guys,
I'm also trying to port firefoxos to the androidarmv6 project device galaxy5(gt-i5500)
I may learn many things from you guys.
Hi guys,
I'm currently working on Galaxy Wonder (aka ancora aka GT-I8150) and i use CM10.1 but still dont have any result because of my free time.
But starting today i should have more time to work on it.
Good luck guys.

Still working on the S-OFF method?
What kind of ROM are you building ? Aosp or sense ? and what are the prerequisite the phone has to have in order to test ? (Since there's no s-off yet I guess some other things have to be done)
My girlfriend has got this phone and its slow as hell so maybe I can be a tester with her phone if its still usable afterwards but I think she'd agree anyway cause the device is making her crazy also I can only start testing after august 6th cause we're on holiday right now
I would be happy to help you guys with testing any ROM. Still Desire 300 can be only S-ON. I hope you are going to compile AOSP ROM. Also i got request - If you are really going to make AOSP ROM would you use Linaro 4.9 by @Christopher83 , @JustArchi optimizations, -O3 optimizations, Link Time Optimizations. Lets get this phone working again because with stock firmware is just awful.

My sister bought brand new Desire 310 and used it exactly one week. After that she went back to my old Samsung Galaxy S Plus I9001 (using CM 11.0 Release 10 by ADC-Team & K^Kernel 416 RAM by ADC-Team). This old device is single core phone with 512 ram and it is totally better in every way compared to Desire 310. She asked me to do something with her HTC but first i need to find any ROM. That's why i would like to help with tests.

Well this is not Desire 310 but desire 300. The Desire 310 has a MediaTek Quadcore SoC with 1.3Ghz and 1GB ram, running a slightly modified AOSP rom. I can tell you this device HAS to be faster than the S plus of your sister. It is, check it. There currently no ROM available for 310 because of the Mediatek SoC. It's rootable via Framaroot using the Boromir exploit. DO NOT FLASH ANY ROMS, THERE ARE NONE

We're making 4.4 ROM, I think it will be based on CM
Hello fellow XDA members, I recently purchased a Le Pro 3 and a Le S3 during the flash sale and would like to use Cyanogenmod on my devices. I was wondering if anyone on this forum has ever ported a ROM before as I have not, and only know about the CM porting guide and opensource.le.com for the kernel source. If anyone has any tips or would like to assist me in porting CM13 to the Pro 3 please reply to this thread or PM me. Thanks, and let's hope LeEco releases the source soon!
Love to help but this isn't my department ????. But we should probably see more support in a couple more days once they start arriving here
Just out of curiousity, what exactly had you hoped to achieve with this post? If you're interested in porting, ideally you should at least be able to build a rom (for another pre-existing device)... and then you'll have to hunt down help on the CM forums and then eventually IRC.
Talking about this on XDA is pointless.

The purpose of my post was to see if anyone in the XDA community had experience porting a ROM to a new device, and if they'd be interested in helping me. I have read through a few guides and understanding building a ROM, but am struggling to find what I must "merge." From what I've found so far, I'll need to edit/merge the directories in /system/libs and edit the kernel?

No, it's far more complicated than that. You'll need a copy of the kernel for sure, but you'll also need a device definition. You can use the op3's device as a template, it's probably the best example of an msm8996 device you can have.
You really should be checking into the CM forums. CM people are pretty uppity about not supporting things on XDA. They also don't tend to help. Even as a developer I find it difficult sometimes to get their attention. Your best bet is to go to them if you want their help. Good luck.

Where did you get that information from? They "accidentally" released kernel sources not too long ago and seemingly withdrew it. I got a copy of them and that's what I've been working with. I don't have a device to verify if any of it works.

Not a lot. I've identified the CAF tag the sources are based on and have been working to separate the relevant LeEco mods from the less relevant ones. I've also been attempting to remove the leeco specific things from the drivers that i'm keeping since they're a horrible mess and CM won't be able to make use of them anyway. I've also been finding the appropriate open versions of the drivers and taking the latest ones instead.
The mods from LeEco seem to be a mess, the dmesg output I got from a user on the chinese model (the x720) had segfaults from the modifications just after boot. The logcats are so full of errors I was unable to get the user to send me a full logcat from boot.
Interestingly enough, the chinese system rom looks like it came from a Le Max2. This makes sense since it's LeEco's first msm8996 device, and the Le Pro3 is the second one. I imagine the kernel sources work across a number of the 8996's.
Can you send me the link to where you got the open drivers.

Wish i could help more, but it looks like the kernel source is in there too, perhaps that means a fully functional cm13 rom that works AT LEAST as well as the stock rom. VERY EXCITE!
