Hey Ubuntu Team, are you still interested in doing this experiment? I would join forces, do you still want to do it? We could start this weekend

Think you might need to direct this question at Microsoft. Once they release a version of WM7 into the wild, then the guys here can start having a look at it.
Effectively, you're asking someone to re-edit a film that's still being filmed!
Come back when WM7 has been released on a device and see what the wizards here have managed.
Yeah! get me WM8 *lol*

[Q] Benchmarks for new roms?

Hi all,
I know it is a lot to ask, but is there a way to sort all these new ROMS and benchmark them? I mean unless you install each and every one, you dont know which one is fast and which is usable...
My Diamond is nearing its death, but I'd like to be able to use it a bit more, until I decide either going Win7 or Android (Galaxy S maybe?)
Thanks,
A desperate Diamond User
which app would you suggest to do the benchmarks ?

[REQUEST] Ubuntu Touch for LG GPad 8.3

Is there anyone here working on an Ubuntu Touch port for the LG GPad 8.3? I plan on getting one of these awesomely spec'd tablets in the next few weeks, and it'd be great to have UT on it.
Thanks,
Shiggity
To add to my post here, there's work being done on port the KitKat Android HAL, and once that's done in theory UT can be ported to from my understanding to any platform easier. I'd be willing to help with such a port, but I can't do it alone. Anyone up for it?
I'm between jobs right now and have a G pad 8.3 coming in this week. I'd like to help working on this port. I've got 25+ years of development under my belt but no Ubuntu yet. Should be a fun project to get my software chops tuned up again.

Thanks for you interest in my idea! I can't code for beans, but I'm sure there's something we can collaborate on. I'm ready to start on this when you are!
interested
what can I do to help?
Skay, have you gotten your GPad yet? I'm still eager to help with testing stuff etc.

Count me in for helping, if there is anything I can do. No development experience yet though. Cheers

Considering you would have had little to contribute other than "coming up with the idea" all is not lost
I'm sure such a project will pop up
Is anyone still working on this, because I have a G Pad 7, and was looking to see if there was a port for it.

Firefox OS, is this possible?

Hello guys, i saw that some team port FIREFOX OS on HUAWEI G510, maybe it is possible to port this on captivate glide too? it will be great

probably very hard work, since tegra2 doesnt support NEON.
Its possible, but nobody works on it.

It doesn't need NEON, all sources are available. I worked on it for the R a while ago. Compilation takes 5+ hours on a system that needs 2 hours for a full CM compilation, because the Gecko system is huge. I don't think it's worth putting time into it yet, it's still in a somewhat beta stage.
Sent from my OmniROM-powered LG Optimus 4X HD
it will be good if we will have Firefox OS if someone can make it
i know 5hr is too much, but when you have time, can you compile for us new OS? thank you!
nnn
noone wants to try this rom? or someone if someone can tell us how to do it and we will compile if you don't have time ...

Aosp from source

I will be building aosp from source in the next two days or so and will need testers who have twrp already installed. Please let me know if you are willing and available to test.

Big difference but a great phone. I just moved so it's going a little slow as I settle in but internet is set up, and I have a fresh Linux install. Setting up build environment tonight and I'll keep you updated
Any luck?

Not yet, to be honest never developed before other then one port, about six years ago. So the going is slow. Also doing this between work and a one year old son. Sorry for the amount of delay
Just so you all know it's building now

Do you have the ability to test?
I can test it just need to know how to back up DRM keys, etc on this one. Have custom rom on previous phones just need to be aware of process on this phone.

Deleted as I made headway
So an update for everyone.... Well I spilled beer on my keyboard.... Can't make this **** up... So I just got a new keyboard( sorry it took a bit) but I've got a new one and back to work. I'm sorry for the delay but this is my first foray into rom development and while it might not be a big undertaking for most, this is a first for me. I'm going to attempt lineage first, as they have the most up to date documentation, this will not be 8.0 and even once it's out for us I probably won't go there for a long time as I do not yet have the skills to troubleshoot and provide a reliable rom on a brand new os (for us atleast) so thank you for the patience as I'm doing this with a 1.5 year old who loves to cause chaos, (lol), hope all is well and I will update as I can
I've just brought the phone, I'm in for a test.
Would definitely be interested in testing as well. Thanks a lot for the work you're doing. I think this phone has a lot of potential outside of what Sony has done for it.

Sorry guys I believe the project is dead. I've had some things come up and I think it's possible and feasible but I'm going to have to invest what time I have into searching for a new job as my boss committed suicide this week...
So sorry to hear this.. Hope you find a new job soon. Phone is certainly not a priority. All well to you!
