Chrome on Rhodium . . Chrodium

I respect all the Devs @ Xda, for their work.
I was thinking is it Possible to run a Chrome OS on Rhodium,
What are the compatibility issues might Come Across,
I heard that there will be Chrome based smartphone being developed by HTC.
And Chrome will be more suitable for Hand held devices and Netbooks.
Is there any Hope for a Concept of "Chrodium"

maybe. but it doesnt run well as developed as it is anyways. its only a web browser os. i think there would be more driver issues than anything. though maybe you just want it for the name.

I don't know about a Chrome OS port to the Rhodium. The thing about the Android project is that it also is porting the full Linux kernel, so in theory any Linux based operating system should work. However, Chrome OS isn't that practical to begin with. As someone once said:
It's like a real OS but without all those pesky FEATURES and PROGRAMS that we hate so much! I mean, why would you need a computer that runs your browser, IM program, syncs up your iPod, downloads torrents and burns DVDs when you could have a computer that JUST BROWSES!

That quote sums it up for me, so it seems kind of pointless IMO. The Rhodium Android project covers the phone OS niche, while the Rhobuntu project covers the desktop Linux niche. I don't really see why we need another Linux OS port when those two areas are already covered. Just my 2 cents.

The idea itself is cool but as Dave said, we already have the other ports and Chrome OS isnt even at a retail release so im thinking we should put that idea back in the hat for a while...

Good to Know . . thanks Davs
I really didn't knew much detailed things about Chrome.
It was just a thought came across my my Celeron Powered Brain
And Btw, Thanks for the information provided above , and explaination
One more thing I still Like the Name "Chrodium"b

forum for Samsung Jét GT-S8000/3

Can anyone Developer create the forum for Samsung Jét GT-S8000/3 in here xda..?
Samsung Jét looks same like Samsung Omnia II GT-I8000...
But Samsung S8000/3 is TouchWiz mobile (CPU 800MHz) and Samsung Jét can Run Android with JetQi Boot loader... (JetDroid)
it's nice if here xda-developers forum are forum for GT-S8000/3 ...
My Android Binaries for Samsung Jét:
code.google .com/p/android-for-jet/
and videos of my Android binaries is in youtube: CarlosJacksonHD

Heya!
Since i had a samsung JET(my touch screen is screwed due to some "pressure" with another phone inside my pocket), i was reading abt jetdroid, but never came across any conclusion about it. is that already possible, i mean, would that worth fixing it? speed, functions and everything? By your video, i noticed that it already works, but worth it?

Hello, I'm sorry for bringing up this dead topic. I would like to know if there has been a progress in this? Thanks!

Still waiting for Jetdroid...
I like my S8000 but the Samsung custom OS on it is too limited and they stopped support (updates) very early.

@Exnor I also like my S8000 very much, but I don't think so many people are interested in Jetdroid project.
Actually, it is very well described and easy to find in internet (although, unfortunatelly not on the XDA site). Did you install CM7 on your S8000?

Hi,
I've tried a early port and ride along with it since i've stop using my s8000 :/ in favor of my Galaxy nexus...
Its really sad to see such a good phone not getting more support ... the Jét still have a more decent hardware than the low end Android phones.
Thanks for the tip

Old good S8000 Jet
@Exnor I know what you mean, I have also been using my Galaxy S i9000 last two years But I want to revive it as my second phone again now.
Flashing the S8000 and upgrading it with Android OS is a real adventure with running Ubuntu in virtual box etc.
One of the guys who is still actively working on the Jetdroid project attends to build in the close future the ROM which uses linaro! It would give to old, good S8000 a real Jet speed.
There is also a CM10.2 ROM uploaded less than 2 weeks ago, look here:

Windows 8 Porting

So, friends, as you already know from the web sources, SONY is not going to publish Jelly Bean until Spring, so lets just experiment, as you also know Windows 8 can be easily ported to any ARM device, so as our Sony XPERIA S is ARM Arcitechture based, lets find a way on how to install Windows 8. Just agree that SONY's HD screen and Windows 8 Metro Style, and stuff will look amazing on our HD screens, and Xperia S also fits Windows 8 Square style. Guys lets make this topic live, I really wanna see Windows on Xperia : ((

sorry, what's your source about jb on spring?
i heard that it was going to be available during next month

Xperia S will be able to get JB until Spring.....
Next month..... Do U mean T, tx....? Those will be earlier to get JB than XS, Xion, etc.

Hey guys,if you want JB either wait or install CM10 that's not the point of this thread.Lets make a win8 working on our SXS!

Windows 8 on sxs
Sorry guys but please don't discuss other things in this thread, I created this one because I'm really interesting in Windows 8 on XS, so please lets collect as much information about this as possible, and lets hope that developers will look into this thread one day : )

It was already mentioned. Windows 8 is closed source. You simply can't port it. If you can, it would make a HUGE work, and I don't think anyone will try that.

Yes, I understand, but there are a lot devices on windows 8, Is it that hard to make dualboot?

Dual boot? I think it will be a LOT HARDER. We badly have space for two Android kernels, you want an Android kernel and a Windows kernel, and that both work AT THE SAME TIME?

I think i have seen dual boot win8 and ICS on tablet,but tablet is tablet .Listen,if we can't make a dual boot than ok fine,but lets make an actual win8 rom,I know it's hard but if we gather a team,maybe we can do something for a 2,3 moths? :/

Yea, I think it's possible

I really think it is possible with few good devs,motivatio,dedication and time it is possible,but it looks like noone wants to do it...

It's a pity...it would be nice to see it happen

But as someone said before, win8 is closed source, so it will be illegaly to run it on another device that those coming with windows originaly. Ir was ported to HTC HD2 because it was running windows mobile before, but on android device you could get info trouble of you will try it

Retarded microsoft.
Why closed source?
And why not selling windows 8 mobile like desktop version? (Just an idea )
I know drivers etc are the problem.. but.. why not?
Verstuurd van mijn Xperia S met Tapatalk

Is it me, or are some people confusing things?
1) Isn't the OP referring to "WINDOWS 8" as in Windows for PC?
2) From my understanding "Windows 8" is only for X86 architecture...........
3) Then there is Windows "Phone 8"....which some others are confusing things further with.
4) Then there is Windows "RT" for ARM-based processors..........that the Microsoft SURFACE runs............RT being something between "Phone 8, and Windows 8........but not really the same as either one. RT cannot run Windows desktop apps that Microsoft has not certified
IMO, if an RT port cannot be configured to run all of the wireless hardware and camera , GPS , BT , sound devices, on an Android phone..............while a nice and fast, stable Android version can run everything..........I personally don't see the use for porting any RT or Phone 8.

Nah you don't get it .Listen,all we want is to see windows 8 on our phone,because:
1)I like metro ui,my personall opinion,sometimes metro seems much more beatiful than any android ui...And no,launchers can't replace it
2)Why would I spend money on the phone I actually don't want,just because it has win8...Not a good reason to spend my money honestly
3)And aren't you a little bit curios what can you do with your phone?Just a little bit?I saw people are putting,Windows real pc Windows on their mobiles...Yesterday i saw Ubuntu has officially released their same OS for phones with multi-cores that is running on pc's.Android after all gives you freedom up to some point,and all I want is to find out where is that point To much to ask for?

Anything is possible, with time & effort. I had Windows 95 running on my X10 and had UBUNTU 12 on my LT28 Ion. Not very useful but still nice to know I can
Sent from my LT28

Exactly windows 95 is now free, ubuntu is free, and based on linux, just like Android, so its ok to run it on an Android Phone and no mather if you would like PC's Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8, it would be illegaly. But well, isnt it illegaly to modify phone, and trying to get it repaired by warranty, then lying you didnt modify it and it broke itself? anyway, it would be really good to have any of those Windows 8s on Xperia
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I think if we want to speak about illegal things than that's piracy.This is not,this is just freedom that Android gave us,and we can use it?Why would we stop,satisfied with this?Anyway,anyone interested in this project?

Ubuntu Phone OS?

Any chance of it coming to our phones when Canonical officially releases it? Supposedly, from what I read. All that is really needed is drivers. Not exactly sure on that though. Still have to do more research on it though. Would be awesome if it would.

I'm not sure if you were trying to answer your own question in the same post, lol. But there could be a possibility of it working. Check out the OP of this thread, apparently you can sign a petition to get the development started.
In my opinion, if you really need to use the Ubuntu OS I'd suggest to just stick with the desktop version for now. Android is already more than good enough as a phone OS which is still basically Linux-based.

Question Can we get all these ROMS over to OP9 Please.

I see a bunch of ROMS over here on the PRO side.
Can a OP9 type dude get some love...... Dang! Lol.
Haha, thanks to all the developers regardless. You guys are awesome. I'm just a typical flashaholic. Maybe I need a meeting. Syke. Time to flash more

Yeah it would be nice to see some of these over there. I started trying to figure out how to port them myself but I need someone who's willing to help me get a working device tree because I was confused as to what source I should be using.
I was following this.

I might have to learn how to do that. And I could join you.

Maybe you should consider donating a device to OP9 Pro Devs, they might make a ROM or two for you.

Shoot I could do that. I flip phones for a living.

My point too, the same goes for the devs. They don't own the device, they won't build ROMs.

There's not that many differences between the 9 and 9 Pro to account for though. I mean you can flash the complete 9 Pro firmware to a 9 (many of us have unfortunately had to cross-flash to the Indian 9 Pro firmware after the device got fussy and didn't flash properly) and it boots and functions fine, just the camera cutout is in the wrong place. It really should largely come down to the kernel.

Of course not but there shouldn't be too much that needs to be changed is my point, it's not like this is an entirely new device, over 90% of the hardware is shared.

Well, the majority of the devs from the OP9 Pro are not willing to do it without owning the device. It's understandable, it's their free time. Blind building, waiting for the feedback, logs, etc... It's pain.
