Once finished i will start a dev thread under the Galaxy nexus CDMA Development section.

Good luck with this. I will be following even though I dont have any interest in having Ubuntu on my phone unless maybe in a dual boot function.
Well eventually thats what im shooting for.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889433 <-- this is the thread for the hd2
but eventually once a stable build is created i want to have dual boot feature so.
Hoping the best for this with dual boot, thanks in advance for your efforts :thumbup:

This will be fully native right? As opposed to ones that use a vnc server/client?
Yes this will be fully native and evenually dual boot. Once a stable build is ready for release

Erm... "kernel"
why just because you can? i will follow this for knowledge but don't see the point ... isnt ubuntu making a moblie version of the os themselves with a possible hardware phone too? i dont think it really has a place ... never the less i wish you good luck
ubuntu would be best for tablets not phone imo
I'm not putting a desktop version of Ubuntu on the phones. And yes but its based on android GUI and android code. I am doing this because it becomes an option..... something different . And I had an hd2 the idea itself and the actual build was pretty interesting. But think about a mobile true Linux device. All the possabilities

Also I want to make point of this Ubuntu mobile OS will be similar to android with an effing unity interface. Personally I hate the unity interface. By porting Linux Ubuntu this opens the doors for things like idk for ex programming custom gui's. Ha aha if somebody wishes a true mobile hacking unit lol not that I support this fashion of hacking. But again its DIFFERENT. But all in due tine need to get through my exams

If I can propose something, please have the RTL8187 module already built in with USB host active!
Can't wait to see development!!!!
If you need beta testers let me know! I'm more than happy to help with this project.
Awesome idea USB functionality I already incorporated and I will let everyone know on a beta
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Also, provide kernel source and headers so if anyone who wants to build new modules/drivers it will be easier!
I would look at Backtrack-ARM too. I am running it in chroot but having native would be awesome! If we can find elite engineers to convert our broadcom wifi and make it monitor/injection working would be like the n900 but with way more power and bigger/better screen for mobile pentesting!

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.

That's silly. If I wanted another OS I wouldn't be on GNex, would I?

Well, that's the beauty of a Nexus,isn't it? You can flash so many different things with less problems than a non-nexus.

No, I get you, but that's not what I meant. If I wanted a windows os I would have bought a phone that already runs one. Same way, if it were possible to run android on iphone, I wouldn't buy iphone to do that. I would buy iphone to run ios, right?
Now, I do get that it's awesome to play around, have something different, impress your friends, etc, but I bought my phone to run android. that's me.

Any info about ubuntu on android.. i want to apply in my Galaxy Nexus.. interested
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
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.

Web os or windows phone. Or Meego.
Definitely meego with a dalvik machine for android apps
I think Mozilla's B2G shows a lot of promise. I like the concept.
Erm... Kandy Kane maybe.
android features with iOS interface.....
Android 1000000000000000.0

Tizen for sure. Meego's real time multitasking was awesome. Same with Maemo.
W8 could be nice, but for that I'd probably prefer getting a w8 phone, from my experience with HD2,dual booting was annoying.

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..

You just can start porting. Didn't you read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

You could have at least done a factory reset.
I will try now with factory reset.

Is a format of userdata done or is /data/media or /sdcard/ wiped in any way? The phablet zip writes to /data, right? And doesn't format it? Still waiting on the download.
Is there any plan from canonical to release final version for galaxy nexus ?
i'm little disappointed when they just release a "preview" version
and in my opinion
if they want to promote their OS before launching any pre-installed ubuntu phone
they need to release a fully functional OS for current supported phones
well at least people will know what is ubuntu phone not only from video
I love it. I had put it on and done a backup so I can put it back on to show it off.
Its (as an alpha) amazing. The flow and simplicity of it makes scenes to me. Swipe from all sides.
I done factory reset, dalvik and cash. Installed, booted and wait for more than 10 minutes. Still nothing, just black screen. And now TWRP couldn't find my restore files...
