[DEV REQUEST] Ubuntu Touch port to N7100?

Hi everyone,
As you probably have heard, the Ubuntu Touch (alpha) image has been released for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, 7 and 10.
I would like to request porting it to our N7100 devices!
If I could I would do it myself but I have never ported anything.. However, if I can help in any way I will gladly do what I can!
For reference:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

Since Galaxy S3 was one of the best-selling smartphone, I hope will be a port for it and consequentially for note 2 that has the same hardware platform

its not the place to Request a port.

big boooi no need to request, the porting instructions just came online and seem as "easy" as building CM from source.
its only natural that ports will be available on most devices.

Yay!!!
Device = Note 2
Rom = Omega 12

Kernel = Perseus 32

Audio = AC!D + Noozxoide

There is no point of porting it currently, as most things don't work very well..
This is for devs, to test their apps. Not for users.. (yet )

I am aware of this.. But porting also has it's own malfunctions and problems. By porting an alpha release some of these problems can be solved before the stable release, was my thought

I am building a Ubuntu ROM now, as it was said before, don't expect much the ROM, as it is still being developed. But I am pretty sure you guys like me, just want a taste of it.

Hi Dev,
Ubuntu Touch is fabulous and it looks great.
I see you were working hardly last month in porting Ubuntu touch in SGN2.
But this month no update, not a single post. Is this project ALIVE or being DISCONTINUED or DEAD???
Dev pl work on it, we have lots of hope on you.
Thanks

[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.

[Q] other operation system on arc s

I'm new member in this site and i want to know if possible to port other OS to work perfectly on xperia arc s
got bored from android and battary drain :crying:

In theory, it's possible but not feasible. You can run IOS on an Android phone but it won't work perfectly. Likewise if you tried to run Android on an IPhone, it's possible but not perfect. Rather than asking for a port of another OS, find ways to personalize your Android experience and solve the battery drain. If you are still bored or can't be bothered, I suggest you buy an IPhone.

That's not true, as long as the OS is based on a linux kernel and has the ability to build from source with drivers it should'nt be much of a issue.

I proposed a solution for his battery issues. As for the rest, we must have someone with good programming skills wanting to port the os. It is possible.

Yes, I said it was possible, but not everything is served to you on a silver platter. You can build from source, but drivers are
still a big problem that stops the ported OS from working perfectly.

Abandon? You expecting lifetime of updates? They didn't abandon Xperia S. The current firmware is fine.

Why must there be? There are unofficial versions, just use those. Are you expecting Sony to keep every single phone they ever released up to date? There must be hundreds by now (okay that was a hyperbole, 48 according to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia), noone can keep up with that. If you must blame anyone or anything for the short while that phones are getting updates, blame Android because it's so hard to install on hardware (compared to more classic PC OS's like Windows and Ubuntu/Pick-Your-Favorite-Linux-Distro). Not even the Galaxy Nexus got an update to Android 4.4, and if there was one Nexus that was most like our Fuji-phones it was that one. So if our generation's Nexus isn't even getting any updates anymore, how do you expect a non-Nexus device to get that update.
Seriously, I don't like this either, so ever since KitKat I haven't run a stock ROM. Now you've learned that if stock updates are important to you, you should get a Nexus or a Google Play Edition device. Sony has been known not to be very good in providing long term updates ever since the Xperia X10 (their very first Android phone). And if you can't afford to get a new phone every 2 years (because that's how long it'll be relevant), you should stop being so sensitive about updates and be happy with what you have.

Best not buy a HTC, support isn't great there either. The One X(L) isn't going beyond Android 4.2. If this is important to you, there's only q Nexus, a Google Play Edition phone or maybe a Motorola Moto X but we still have to see how long Motorola is going to support phones now they're part of Google.
And indeed we wouldn't be much without Rayman or bilchen. But it's like this for the vast majority of Android devices.

I tried several KK-based roms for xperia S, but all gave me random reboots
had some on 4.3, but with 4.4 I have too many to be stable as dayly driver.
i guess they all use the same kernel (open semc), that could explain why the all have it?
but... why do some people claim to have no reboots, and others have em 'all the time'?
i'm now on nature rom (4.1) and no problems at all, it's a great rom, but i really like 4.4 as well.
will there be a stable kernel/version soon?

First of all, the XS it's not just another phone sony launched, its a flagship device that only got two major updates (one actually cause ics should have been out of the box) so I at least expected 4.2 or 4. 3, even Galaxy s2 got them
second, the galaxy nexus didn't get 4.4 because of Texas instruments (supposedly) and as long as other oems continue to update it means it's possible and we have every right to complain about it

Wow.. Just amazing! I'll be waiting anxiously for both (yours and tornado007) releases!! I was thinking of buying the Z2 but I will wait a little longer to see If I can stick with my XS longer! :fingers-crossed:

heh i wouldent wait on envi-os , it is in pre-alpha.
4.4 port is what we are throing a lot into so it should be done in a while (like said before preconfigured roms are anoying)
that shouldent take too long
also ill be buying a XZ2 so Envi-OS is coming to that and maybe a comunity Stock plus project
tornado007 has a XZ So maybe envi-os will come to that (ill ask if he can port XZ2 camera too)

4.4 port is tough.. We need to build display drivers from scratch which is a huge burden.. I am although trying to contact pro devs and get help.. I am not a genius who can write 10000 lines of code without help.. Although willing to give it a try.. Don't get any hopes up just yet.. Its still unsure that such a kernel can be built to make the official 4.4 from XZ1c to work on our device.. I may need a dev like niaboc or bilchen to make such kernel.. If i were u, i would not get my hopes up..

I figured it was going to be difficult... I wish I could help but I still have zero knowledge of programming languages. I Wonder if it is really possible to create such kernel even with help from pro devs like DooMLord.. I still have hopes but at the end of the year I'll be retiring this Xperia S, so anything until there is welcome!
