Someone port ubuntu to gio - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

Ubuntu just released developer preview for nexus devices. they said it can be ported on any device running cm10.1.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

Can't wait!

Well it mainly depends on Olddroid,erickas they are the guys who made Cm10.1 for our device. Or moltenmotherboard could also do a port

There are already two ports of CM9 (with inherited problems), I might work on JB but not now.
How about porting some of the features ?

I think MIUI and AOKP ports should remain original, mixing things will neither be JB or MIUI,AOKP.

I agree but 60fps instead of 30fps would be really cool.

Here we go again. People trying to port new Android versions from completely incompatible phones, hardware wise. Or worse yet, from an emulator image.
It will run like **** no matter what, so I'd rather wait for sources, thank you very much.

On Wonder will not ported Jilly Bean?
Well cm9 is being ported right now. Right now it works pretty well so why won't cm10 work? The only thing i think won't work is the camera and some other bugs

He means that better port from compiled from sources, not from another phone or emulator image.

That depends. It's the devs interest. Basically it's made mostly for higher end phones, so I don't think this one can get that thing, but if it gets it would be awesome. It was the best rom on my s2
according to xda our device is in "Legacy & Low Activity Devices" criteria
so it could no be possible......until until cm9 fully out
by cm9 our dev's can do the same
..........so patient.......................
Our is screen is not capable for paranoid rom needs big screen

Galaxy Mini has Paranoid Android
Ya though mini may hv, it cannot be ported to sgy
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
it depends on the specs not only the screen.. what's the use of big screen but low ram? higher version of Android OS needs more ram to make it smooth and stable without any lags.. expect the cm7 soon it will be fully fixed, just trust the dev.
Sent from my Android System using Busybox Command.
First let relase fully fixed cm7 for our device, then others will be released also.. I trust on our devs..

Cyanogenmod 7.3

What's going to be new in cm7.3?
My guess is jellybean animations.
Few more devices.
Raft of new bug fixes.
Anything else?
Or just forget cm7.3 and use evolve jellybean?

There is no cm7.3 but cyanogenmod already announced cm7.x will carry on at a slower rate of development.
Just wondering where it will lead to.

As long as automatic keystroke logs can be read by every application, I personally prefer rather to wait for CM 7.3 than to install CM 7.2
Have a look at this:
code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=4735
When I stumbled over this, I couldn't believe it
They didnt changed anything in the nightly builds since 9 weeks (18th Nov).... looks like they stop developing and 7.3 only will become a big Bugfix-Release.
edit: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#bravo/cm7/1353824529
I would love CM10 on Desire, but they dont make it
I have VJ's CM10-ROM (Android 4.1.2, V3.0), whichs is really nice (beside a few minor bugs).
My phone is much smoother and faster with CM10.... i really cant understand why they dont bring CM10 for Desire
maybe android 4 is best choice.
maybe cm7.2 is last release for 7.x.
so..

So, a link would be nice... as far as I know they dropped because of the hardware limitation of the Snapdrogen Gen. 1.
But its proven that CM10(.1) works well.

I have to agree with cm for dropping support.
The general hackiness has always kept me away from jb/cm10 I gave up after 2 weeks as games and the system in general are slower.
For example try jetpack joyride in gb then try it in jb/cm10.

Definitely no. Cyanogen team has moved on to 10.2.
If anyone claims CM7.3, it's his work of little tweaks here and there. Not officially supported.

[Discussion] : do you want Firefox OS on xperia s?

As the title said, do you want Firefox OS, on sxs?
Sony released the kernel(Linux 3.0.8) and system source of firefoxOS for xperia e , so porting should be possible
What do you think?

Porting isn't possible. It's impossible to port kernel from device which has different SoC. We have dual-core when E has single core.

You read it wrong. Only the system is from xperia e. The kernel will be using xperia s kernel. And since Firefox os uses Linux kernel, I think it can be ported.
Edit: and yeah, ofc I want to try the firefox os. It'll be very nice..

ooh.. you just dont want to say that you're wrong right? j/k.
well, the devs have source for xperia s kernel (the 3.0.8 one, from Sony, and/or cm10 kernel from fxp and others), and there is source from firefox os too. and you know, there is ubuntu touch for xperia s in the development thread right? it can be done, so why this (firefox os) is impossible?
still, i dont know for sure though, as im not a dev or anything. just using my logics

The kernel is very similar (90-95%) to the stock sony kernel , but it has firefox os patch and xperia E Soc(msm7227a) drivers .... I'll only include all the xperia s drivers and adapt the rom to xperia s hardware ... It's a dirty way , but I need first to get it booting , and next we can improve and fix it.

Yes.
It will be useless i think, you will loose your time to do it.
We already have too many great roms, what are working really good, and i think (that's my opinion) we do not need firefox os.
if its work why not
its always nice to have another new things
if you want any help pm me
It would be nice to try FirefoxOS on our phone
Firefox OS would be amazing! I heard rumors that they use the same drivers from Android. Would anyone have a clue where to begin?

FirefoxOs share a lot of part of the HAL from android.
We have to begin from the kernel, after we get it boot, lets start adapt the rom
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
It would be nice to try it out - it's always nice to have options to choose from. That being said, i doubt Firefox OS will catch on because even Ubuntu Phone OS will have wider audience and a bigger usage base.
