Mozilla just released nightlies for their boot2gecko operating system http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/latest-mozilla-central/ would any of the amazing developers on the One X forum be able to port it?
sounds interesting, would love to test once it's ported over to our lovely phone.

It's a totally different OS. No chance would we ever see it on our One X. It's like asking for a Rom with WinMo on it - never going to happen!
What about with emulators?

Really, So what obsticles does the One X face it can't overcome that SGS2 could? As the earlier version of Firefox OS, Boot2geko was ported over to the SGS2 (and a few others android phones as well I believe)

i gathered this is opensourced(coming from mozilla), so the same people who ports aosp to htconeX can really do their magic on this one.
or maybe thats just wishful thinking of me.

I believe this is because the software of the HD2 is completely open. This enables developers to port android, meego, windows phone, and recently even Windows RT on it.
Developers can only do so much is the source isn't fully open.

HD2 has S-Off, which means it's possible to change every partition, including how the OS boots. In case you haven't noticed, we don't have access to all of our partitions because we don't have S-Off. Given that everybody apart from you is so dumb, can you tell us how to boot arbitrary OSs?

But interesting more than Firefox OS
It might be possible but it would need to much hard work and effort to do so, since we are not only S-ON but Tegra 3, to witch it's very hard to port to...
It's just wouldn't pay off, as there might be like 100 people, like you, who would even consider installing Firefox OS OR any other non-android OS, since it is hard to do to a normal user as well...

this would be a great idea, but would it be doable?
wouldn't it be easier to port some of it's features, if it is, and improve on current htc one x android roms, making them even better and maybe ppossibly setting a new standard?

It is doable. You can't port specific apps or features as it is a different platform.

BUMP to resurrect this thread.
I used to own a Palm Pre, and i can say without a doubt, that WebOS was smoothest and most intuative OS i've ever used..the ONLY thing that held WebOS down was the horrid hardware Palm and HP put out....
Please someone, I can't pledge a whole 100, but i will certainly pledge $40....it ain't much, but if you add up what the others say, it will get you pretty damn close to a new nexus 7....and than we could beg the great dev who does it to port it to the Nexus 7...
Come on XDA, lets do this...well one of you great devs do it!! lol....i'm a great tester flasher, but i'm no dev and i don't have the hardware to build it out...
I had the Palm Pre 1 and still have the Pre 3. They're great and easy to use devices. WebOs has so much potential, it shouldn't be given up that easy! It's so innovative and full of interesting functions. I would love to see a port to the One X!!
Some of it's benefits:
really fast!!
easy to use
a great solution for "multitasking" (some say it's a useless gimmick, but they should take a look how other OS's solved this problem (!...))
gorgeous interface!
ability to play .apk's (ACL)
Opensource
and far more things I can't remember right now
To compare how good the software architecture of WebOs is, take a look at the Moto Droid (Milestone 1) and the Palm Pre. While the Droid is very laggy on Eclaire or even Froyo, the Palm Pre with the same processor as the Droid runs very very fast and smooth. Even with WebOs 2.1, which actually hasn't been released for the Pre. There's a port of WebOs 2.1 for the Pre and even then it's still so smooth and fast. Flash contents on websites are running very fast, but when I take a look at my Droid using flash contents on websites...I can count the frames...
I still belive in WebOs, because it's, in my opinion, a great OS!!

With the lack of proper drivers (which can't be solved in this case), such a port will never be all that great.

You probably need to email and pm devs to get people to work on this. Look for the big devs on your devices forum pm them advertise it to them as a new thing to test and how fun it will be for them to do something new, then offer them the reward.

Ubuntu touch seems to be pretty stable by now. I wonder if anyone is planning on porting it
From the article:
Here's what the latest build of Ubuntu Touch has to offer:
The OS is stable and not prone to crashing;
Phone calls and SMS are working well;
Proximity sensor automatically blanks the screen during calls when the phone is placed by user's ear;
Messaging menu works as intended, missed calls and messages are logged and can be responded to directly from the messaging menu;
Wi-Fi is working well;
Mobile data connections (3G, etc.) are now possible but still require some work;
Power management has been improved;
Camera (and flash) work well. Photos are saved to the gallery and there's a shortcut to the gallery from the camera app.
The browser has seen some improvements;
Phone orientation detection has been added and a number of the core apps now adjust their UI accordingly;
Adding contacts is now easier; and
Most of the dummy data has been removed.

Hmmm this Ubuntu OS is starting to interest me more and more,seems verry nice so far,it still needs alot of work,but in the next years i think it will be a real alternative to Android.The only problem that Ubuntu OS will have is the same problem that Linux distro's have : the lack of apps compared with windows (or in our case Android and IOS).

It's not that hard,the only problem will be for the devs to want to make an app avaible on Ubuntu OS aswell.While smaller apps will be avaible for Ubuntu OS, bigger apps like Navigon,or games from Gameloft or stuff like that,i doubt that they will made them avaible for Ubuntu aswell.
If ubuntu touch gains some market share, we will see apps coming to it.

Hey Guys!
I was just wondering whether any developers are working on porting Sense 5.0 to the HTC One X as I'd love to experience blinkfeed and all the performance increases Sense 5.0 will bring so I was just wondering whether any devs were working on a rom based on it. So far I can see that there are Sense 5 roms for the HTC J Butterfly/Droid DNA and there are theme packs for the One X but I would really like blinkfeed and the updated Rosie launcher. I've heard HTC Is updating the One X, S, J and butterfly to Sense 5 officially but god knows how long they'd take.
tl:dr
Are any devs working on Sense 5 for the HOX?
Regards,
No one as far as I know, and as you aware of, It would be meaningless to port Sense 5 when it's going to be officially released to our phone.
Yes, but I can't remember who LOL
Anyways it's more clever to just sit tight and wait for OTA.

Man, the porting is really difficult! A lot of resize image, a lot of commands edit, files text edits... Who want to port it have to have a lot of time whatvnow us dont have! Any ways i will start porting some apps in one week, but i dont think that i am going to try porting the prism.apk (rosie with blinkfeed), the best what we can do is wait to the release of Htc!

It won't work good, because almost all the apks in the ROM are not ldpi and not compatible with the device, although i'm looking into this further more in development.

Just from the POV of software updates, the One Mini is a much better choice. As we all know the HOX has been abandoned.

It's correct, but in past there are much devices, wich are no longer supported so much after HTC kill official update way. And for Users who love the Sense UI (e. g. me) it is better to go to a new phone from HTC to get updates.
BTW: i think it is better to wait a little bit (a few months) with buying a new HTC Phone. If HTC launched new One M8 phone, the old M7 will be cheaper.
