Porting a different OS is a damn lot of work, so don't expect anyone to do it.
Maybe a dev will become interested an it and start to work on it, but currently everyone is pretty busz porting the Sensation ROM I suppose, so don't expect it to happen.

God get with the program people, use search and view the numerous threads on this subject and don't listen to the doubters we've all been running it for years

I m asking it because as far as hardware is considered desire hd and hd2 are not very different so the only need is to do some tweaking may be some Dev can do it let's keep our hops alive.

Ubuntu for Android on One X

Any rumors?

Dualcore phones can run it officially. See the mwc event.. So it should run theoretically good...

The phone should have no problems with it but initially its up to htc, but maybe in the future theyll make it open source so devs here can try. Im really enthusiastic about this, the phone is powerful enough to be both a basic desktop computer AND a media center. Love the idea of one device for everything!

Also just saw that linux 3.3 got out some days ago and it has android code merged in the kernel. This might speed up the development of a desktop solution.

It's running in Xperia Arc ... So I guess it should run in HTC One X as well BTW in Xperia we use Kernel 2.9

yep but that's the vnc method that can be used on more devices and I feel it's a bit complicated and probably not efficient hardware wise. What resolution can you get when using an external display via hdmi?

wow now this looks really cool!
Anyone any idea if the HTC One X Desktop Cradle has hdmi and usb ports?

It'd be nice if HTC just released a laptop dock. I'd be ecstatic.

Do you know if it'll be compatible with the Ubuntu One? So I can use my phone as desktop and then connect it to a monitor

I've suggested on the thread for this ROM whether they can include it, but it's kinda been ignored. Here's a link to my post asking for it.
Maybe if we made more noise about it, they'd consider doing it.

Yeah, after releasing the Kernel source of our HOX, the chances to enable OTG support(which is required imho) is very high. So this project might become "real" in the near future
/Dev

Wondered if anyone's tried this yet? Or is it impossible without USB OTG?

This is what I am really waiting for (currently, it still not useable).

[Q] What can I do to (help) port Sense 4?

TBH this forum seems a bit lonely... and my EpicParts question was easily abandoned
Whatever, greetings and happy new year to every one out there!
Today I happen to dig out a Sense 4 ROM for our E4G which boots, doesn't reboot THAT often and is resized well (what, you want links? I think that's a private workspace and maybe I shouldn't tell). But what bugs me most is that SystemUI (statusbar) always FCs for no reason and I can't do anything with that.
So here I got a HTC Incredible S ("vivo", which is the port base for our Sense 2.1 ROM) with a fully-functional Sense 4.1 build. Everything's working and things are better sized for WVGA. And it's smooth. Considering it's a single core device, I think there is already no obstacle blocking the port (I know that Sense4All project paused because One X is a quad core device and gets all sorts of reboots. Correct me if I'm wrong).
Thus, I wanna ask, as a non-coding noob:
1) Is porting process the same as common tutorials (copying frameworks, libs, etc)?
2) If not, is this even possible (to have Sense 4.1 ported from vivo)?
3) If not, again, what can I do to improve my current build on hand (i.e. simply stopping the SystemUI FC and maybe adding more HWA)? I don't intend to use the ROM as a daily driver... Just a tool for showing off
So... Thanks again for reading the thread and hope you can offer some guidance

If there was a stable version of Sense 2.1 or 4.0, it would be my daily driver. I really hope this project isn't abandoned.

2.1 is already very usable apart from BT (nah I don't use that), but many devs have already left or are silent. Must be with their new toys. That's why I'm trying to help. If I had time in winter vacation I'll try a bit, but hope not too high
And so I need some guidance and answers... Please. Even one answer will do.

I do want to, but I'm not a code dev and know almost nothing except that "brute-force" porting method, and I don't know whether that will work.
I mean, here I got a fully working Sense 4 build on a SINGLE-CORE device, so is this a proof that porting to us is also possible?

You ported sense 4 to an htc phpne which is much easier than porting it to something not even close to compatible with the hardware so it will be more difficult

But... I said
1) We HAD a now paused project that has ported Sense 4 and made it boot
2) I have a better Sense 4 base ROM (for our device, not HTC's) at hand with fewer random FCs
3) xboxfanj said that the port reboots because One X is quad core, and the ROM will keep searching for the extra cores. But IncS is single core and runs that beautifully (its port is based on One V and Desire X)
And that's why I'm seeking answers.

Part of the problem is that we couldn't port qualcomm roms which would be stable if they booted, but we never got it booting. Tegra is all intercoded into libs and looks for kernel files we don't have which causes it to reboot and be unstable.

To be honest, we never quite figured it out. We never got a proper logcat, since it only gave us unhelpful information, which means it doesn't even start to fully boot.

And this means all my expectes efforts should be in vain, huh?
But check this, I got a Sense 4 ROM from marcusant's site and it's a port from Desire Z, based on One V seemingly. So far apart from all the hardware issues (wifi, cam, sensor), only thing that prevented me from sticking to it is that SystemUI often FCs. And I think that is another base to start on, since IT'S QUALCOMM.

Is that so? There are two items in About Phone indicating phone model. One of them says "HTC One V", which I think is the port source, while the other says "HTC Desire Z", which is the device ported to I assume. I know that these can be modded, but why the hell does anyone take the trouble to mod it to Desire Z when we are Epic 4G? Thus I think it's a Qualcomm port.
Have you looked into it yet? Or maybe it's really your work and you know about it?

I wonder anyone of devs thought of porting Ubuntu to our wfs, is there any one who tried if so share ur experienc.I m also interested in porting it. I reffered that porting section

Sent from my HTC M7 using xda app-developers app

You're right. Ubuntu Touch's based on CM10.1, which isn't even stable. You can imagine that Ubuntu Touch would/will be even worse as far as performance, battery life and that stuff is concerned. But not only that... Don't forget that the WFS is a 2 year-old phone with 3,5 year-old hardware. Even if you managed to port it successfully, it would just be a... "nice-to-have", but not a daily driver.

we can't port or build ubuntu touch because we don't have sufficient NAND for it.

Guys lets not be too hostile towards poor Mahesh. He wanted to create a thread that would help us. No need to start offending his idea. I suggest that some of you apologize.

Really sorry to disappoint him,unless Ubuntu touch has the ability to boot like android on sd card,I think it would be able to work! I am not sure if Ubuntu touch will support that.

Ubuntu Touch interest

Hi,
I saw a video of Ubuntu touch on YouTube and to me it looks stable and usable as a daily.
Also, Canonical have set a date for version 1.0 release. October 17th, which isn't long to go, so...
I was curious if there was interest in getting this project going again?
If I had the knowledge to port this myself I would, but I don't, nor do I have a desktop PC that works.

I'm interested in this too.
I've tried making a build, but with no success. I'm not a developer so I don't understand kernel stuff...
I hope someone will make a working build, because Ubuntu touch looks like a really great OS.

There was a thread about this topic but they stated @ this state radio (data,bluetooth,gps) would not be functioning

i'm waiting for that moment when dual booting will be available for android Multi Core devices.
lets think only in positive way :laugh:

I am using Ubuntu OS on laptop,dekstop.I am wondering Ubuntu touch.Maybe New Phone OS will be very bugs.

Hello all,
meanwhile some time has passed and Ubuntu TOuch has reached stable on some devices. Would anyone be still interested in trying to port again to HTC One X now? I think chances are not so bad that it would be successful.
