I didn't know they had a mobile version. I am questioning, if it is possible to run the version used on a computer, on our phones?

So, you're wondering if a program designed and compiled for Windows and Mac OS, both of which are x86, will work on an ARM Android device? If you can't figure this out, you may want to trade in your phone for something a little less smart.
They do have a mobile app though, and if you're wondering about that, then why not test it out yourself? If you paid for Rosetta Stone because it said compatible with Android, and it isn't compatible, then you can complain to them until they fix it to work with Jelly Bean.

yep theres a $300 online version

No. I was interested if there was a mobile version that could be used on smartphones, specifically android jelly bean. I was not aware of an online version. Sincerely, that is good to know.
However, I was looking for something that would allow me to use the program without an internet connection similar to how they function on a PC. An app exist that is supposed to do something similar, but I am not getting the option to download onto my phone similar to if I tried to download flash which is no longer being supported.
Hopefully, this clarifies my post. Your response indicates that you were not understanding.

[Q] Dualboot?

Is it possible to have a Galaxy nexus and dualboot it with windows 7.5?
Thanks
I'm not going to say anything is impossible... but no. Not easily at least.
Even if you could get it on there drivers would probably be a big issue. It would take a lot of development to get things working properly. You'd have a lot of obstacles to overcome as well such as the lack of physical buttons.
Good luck
The Q&A threads are to be posted here.

Nope.
Even if you somehow got it running it would still be illegal.
And to even try you would need the source code.
It simply won't happen.

WP7 is closed source. Not gonna happen.
Buy a Windows Phone
And I am willing to be op wants this just so he can show his friends and the only effort put into it was getting on the internet. Drivers, ram, code, and development would be only the smallest of obstacles if downloading and flashing it were your goals. The windows phone can be had over there.

I'll wait for windows 8. Windows phone 7 is just a temporary solution from microsoft to stop apple and android from dominating the market. No doubt it is decent but it's still in its infancy and doesn't have a lot of apps.

yeah well they tried and failed. even the director of wp7 developtment admitted defeat a few months ago . Personally I think it is a very decent platform. I really like its elagant user interface but if I just wanted ui I would've stayed with ios.
The reason wp7 didn't take off was because it was too late and there was no demand for it, not because it sucked.
I have dual boot Mango and ICS on my HD2.
Believe me, WP7.5 has a beautiful layout and the best keyboard, but besides that it's way inferior when compared to Android and iOS. Very lame browser and the apps have less options. It's fun to play with for a day, but more than that you'll get really frustrated.

The HD2 is a Windows Mobile 6.5 phone that you can install Mango on and dual boot into Android since other Android phones are very similar to.

Adding to what he said, since the hd2 already had windows on it it allowed It to be easier to port it onto, I think test builds where also made for it too. And since android is open source it was easy to port over( not really but easy for a dev). You'd have better luck buying a windows phone and dual booting that with android

CM 7 for Galaxy Nexus?

I don't know if it may be possible... but is there a way to have a cm7 running on the gn cdma? I'm pretty sure there's not. But maybe there's a small chance there is a way to get it running...I just want to know if there's a cm7 that can run off this phone. I have cm9 nightly running but I want to use gingerbread. .too? Any ideas, thoughts, or a definite answer? Than in advance

Why would you want that..?! Millions of android users are never going to even see what we've got since yesterday (4.0.4) and you want to go back to gingerbread?
heh I wanted to run 1.0 on my nexus one...
Most likely NO. I cant imagine any developer (unless you want to take a crack at it yourself) that would want to waste their time on trying to make "MS Dos 3.1" run on a Windows 8 device
No. And seriously.... wtf?

Faster as in ics needs a certain amount of memory for it to run properly. But I'm guessing cm7 don't need allll the memory available on gn therefore it would run much faster....just like a windows 7 computer having g now like 8gb of ram available and new processors....and if u install windows xp it will run very smooth and super fast..since that system never saw 8gb of ram in the past on a regular desktop....that's what I meant...but yeah it will never happen anyways

It has nothing to do with the ram.
Or maybe even symbian! From the 5110 with the original snake.... ya, THAT would be fast!!!
It won't necessarily run smoother as it wouldn't be optimised for running on the GN. Also gingerbread lacks hardware acceleration so that would make things ever so slightly laggier and not to mention possible bugs.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
There is not (that I am aware of) any device that would run smooth at 720p on Gingerbread unless the OEM added a hardware accelerated UI (for example, the Note).

Just because you may not like an idea doesn't mean that everybody else has to feel the same way. If you're not interested in helping then feel free to ignore the thread, but do NOT reply just to give some smartass answer or harass others.
I think everyone here has been pretty lighthearted with each other so far but this is getting real old real quick.
OP instead of making comments and making fun of your curiosities I will simply explain:
There are no driver binaries for G Nex hardware that work on Gingerbread, and that's the main reason this won't work. Just like you couldn't really build Froyo for the Nexus S. The hardware drivers are typically coded to work with specific versions of Android.

Running Linux natively?

Hey all,
I'm familiar with the process whereby you can run variants of Linux, usually Ubuntu, in a chroot environment then connect to it via VNC. But has anybody tried to port an ARM version over to our device yet? If not, why not? Is it not possible? Arch running on my GN would be a dream.

Ah, well, if I'm not completely mistaken, I know the Ubuntu team is developing a standalone operating system for android devices, but I don't know when and if it will be completed.
As of now, though, I doubt there is anything standalone.
They did something like this for the Xoom, I'd love to see it on the Galaxy Nexus.

I've got some news:
Google tries to fix their fault - Android fragmentation. As you know, Google gave tablets Android 3.0, which smartphones didn't get. It was big mistake. Now Google fixes it by giving new Android with HUGE requirements. So, nope, probably we won't get this version...

HUGE requirements will continue the fragmentation.
Devices like the desire hd or similar, wich gets ics, but will be stuck on 4.0.
About 30% will be stuck on GB because of the grow of android this year, but will be smaller, as most new devices launch with ics.
And so on.
Updating should be like IOS, when an ipad 1 or iphone 3gs is still upgradeable to ios 5.1.1, wich has been released 2 weeks ago.
These are limited in the app store, but who cares?

That's the difference between a monopolized environment and a liberal one. Monopoly is easier to control, predict and dictate. But don't be as naive as to think apple doesn't turn obsolete old equipment with their OS upgrades. The timeline is just much more dilated than those of the less controled environments.

If you could run another mobile OS on the Galaxy Nexus, what would it be?

I thought this would be a fun thread.
Firefox OS is already becoming a reality, btw. Somebody has already started porting it to the Gnex here, but beware, it's a pre-alpha.

The reason I have a Nexus is that I want to run the latest version of Android. So, nothing.
I'd like to be able to try out windows phone, buy prob not as a daily driver. What I would like would be some sort of Ubuntu implementation where it ran both Ubuntu and android depending on whether it was docked or not.
I would want to stick to Android, but run it on Nokia hardware. No one comes close to their quality, albeit diminished as of late.

There are several apps on the play store that add Ubuntu or Debian to the gnex. My favorite one was Debian Kit, which let you put either Debian or Ubuntu on your phone side by side with Android. I'm not sure if it works with Jellybean, though. Really nice to have mc, vim or joe, GCC, package management, X, etc available.
Well... in smartphones we don't have many choice... So I would say windows 8, no windows phone I mean PC windows..
