No one has tried yet. Dont think so

Ubuntu is under development for higher devices.(Yes!!!) But it wont come to us):
"If I could I would, but I can't so I shan't."

Unfortunately, I don't believe it supports ARMv6 and it requires CM10.1 as a base for the port.

Supported architecture isn't the biggest problem here. From what we know so far only high end devices will have official support for Ubuntu Touch and based on that I can only assume it will be cluster f*** on low/mid end devices. Don't wanna be rude, but installation package which is available for nexus is something about 400MB - where do you wanna put that ? SD card ?
I honestly don't know how you can slim that down x[

Indeed it is, 480MB+ ~80MB for the device specific files.

Ubuntu OS requires - 500mb+ RAM and Cortex A-9 Processor clocked at 1Ghz. And thats the minimum requirements....

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?
Wow...! This is what they call evolution? I can exchange my nexus one for your gnex... Lots of gingerbread rooms!

Faster? .... how? Ice Cream Sandwich is as fast as it can get.
it's awesome to put windows 3.1 on my i5

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.

new! some low-end samsung phone will have offical jelly bean

sorry for wrong information
galaxy mini 2 and ace+ is armv6 or armv7 ?
mini 2 using MSM 7227, it's mean AMRv6. remember AMRv7 is only for mid-end and high-end devices
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_mini_2_s6500-3883.php
and also has same camera
also using same GPU: adreno 200
also has same resolution

Sadly no, both of these (Ace2/Mini2) use the Qualcomm MSM7227A which is ARMv7. Our devices (Ace/Gio/Mini/Fit) use the MSM7227T (only a litography shrink allowing 800MHz stock clock, the T is for turbo) - and that is still ARMv6. So still no libs for ARMv6.
sorry. i have a mistakes. just take info from gsmarena. they said that mini 2 using MSM 7227, not 7227A. sorry for all
And would have to resize a lot.. Its easier to port JB from another arm v7 device, and that is already hard.
Nust stick with cm10

sad to hear it however, we still can feel the taste of ics and jelly bean on our device, even not 100% working hardware
Galaxy Beam will receive update?? is not ARMv6?
See this http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/24/samsung-rolling-jelly-bean-toward-most-of-its-smartphone-tablet/
Let me confirm that mini 2 is armv7

Don't expect it would change anything on our Gio.
Samsung just won't release JB or even ICS for any ARMv6 device.
Just like mini 2 or ace plus wont get next version, just 1 software update...

Mini 2 is ARMv7. All devices that come with ICS or JB or Newer as Stock, have to be [highlight]ARMv7[/highlight]
No manufacturer support for ARMv6 phones anymore :-|

[Q] the way forward,,ubuntu

love my dhd , will be sad to see it go and will probably not buy htc again in protest of the ICS saga.
Anyways, seen this a good few months ago and wondering are we any closer to running ubuntu yet ?
http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android
For me this seems to be the way forward
Multi-core req
I also love my DHD, but i seem that the ubuntu project requires a multicore (minimum dual) so I don't think this will be posible.

You seem to doubt the development team greatly. Whenever ubuntu for mobile become ever more popular or when a dev has the free time to work on a port it will be done.
There are many lower end devices that are not fully 1Ghz running android from its original (windows mobile) so relax and see;jelly bean and ics ports are still in swing

Windows 8 port?

This is probably really dumb question, but will this ever happen for the nexus 7 (2013)?? I know windows 8 supports arm processors, not sure if the s400 pro is "arm". This would be awesome to use with multiRom. Of anyone knows if this isn't possible, could you please explain thoroughly??

you sure? every time you say that a dev's compilation fails or a hard drive gains a faulty sector
I heard it's quite difficult to port sense. I've tried; no success; but I've tried basic porting with a tutorial. Maybe we need more guts rather than devs working on that

i talked about 3.4,sense is hard to port not posibole on omap...
we still didnt reach full speed after 4.0 android coz of using 3.0 kenel,3.4 kernel is reqvested to get full speed and all inprovments.there is omapzoom project with still suport omap chips,its last kernel version is 3.8.
Let's hope someday, with 3.4 we can port it! I still have tuna-faith
Speaking of 3.4 Kernel. Isn't the HP Touchpad an OMAP device?
If so they have a working 3.4 kernel.

Nope, it's not OMAP, it's a... Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 APQ8060 and it has some issues ATM, neverthless it's working but.... needs some polishing
