[Q] WebOS port SGS2 ? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
HP announced that they are contributing WebOS Open Source.
http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2011/111209xa.html?mtxs=rss-corp-news
So i was thinking. Will it be possible to port it to SGS2 ?

+1 , would love to see this man !

Yeah I hope so
Even considered buying a Pre 3

That would be awsome!

So will it be possible? And does someone want to port it?
That's the question. I hope it will, because that would be awesome!

Android and WebOS are both built on Linux....
they "should" be compatible...problem is...drivers...same issues that CM has with compiling AOSP with our phones, drivers....so, with that said, getting WebOS onto the SGSII "should" be possible, but it would require a team like that of CM to get going....
now, i'm no dev, but i would love to volunteer my SGSII to help out with testing...

I'd donate to this cause!

it's awesome
if it be possible

[Q] ICS on touchpad?

It's sad that I feel the need to say this... I've searched already or I wouldn't be asking it..
I'm assuming that whenever "they" get the ICS source that it'll eventually be ported to the TP... And was assuming that it'll be much easier porting ICS to the TP since there will already be a GB port and much of it will be "re-usable"? Or is it like starting from scratch all over again?..
Once the source code of ICS is posted the Cyanogen (core?) team will work on making CM8 which will be the ICS version of CM and then the CM-Touchpad team will make it compatible with the Touchpad using the same (if possible) drivers and techniques to do the dual boot with WebOS.

That's what I was thinkin.. thanks
yeah, as soon as source is out I think it'll be be hitting this device hard
All I can say is I cannot wait for the source code to be released. I'm way impatient now, thanks to the new teaser dual boot video and chompers android "port".

Porting meego to atrix?

Is it possible? I heard someone was working on porting it to tegra, but that's when it first came out...
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
its ported to a few tegra2 devices, i played with the idea but didnt have time lately, would have to see if we could use the source code of the moto/cm7 kernel to start off or if it needs a newer kernel. it would however be great to have meego on it (just played with the n9 today and omg the interface is so smooth and lagless - havent seen a phone performing as good ever). you can check a bit here http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/TEGRA2
nvidia released some drivers for tegra2 and meego
hey samcripp i was talking to the meego/mer guys today and they said it shouldnt be too ahrd to port, but it would be nice to have a dualboot/or have the phone boot from external sdcard, at that point akizakian told me you told him its possible, would oyu mind sharing how? thanks man.
Why no dev doing this?
Why don't you do it yourself?
You make it sound as if being a developer is a job.
I'm getting an Atrix soon (despite being a Tmobile customer) And would love to know if there is any support for this? Also are there any ports of other OS's or no?
Very few would be capable of such feat...

Meego is a dead platform.

Well mer/plasma is its fully open source derivative. A guy has put it on tegra 2 tablets ages ago, tsdtest and I tried to get something to boot on the atrix but with no debugging possible on kernel level before boot we gave up...
yeah, we did a bit of experimenting a while back but never got it to boot. If anyone wants to give it a shot again please stop by the irc channel sometime (#moto-atrix on freenode) i'd love to give some help if i can, and i'm sure crnkoj would be happy to as well.
Also, the guys on #mer were helpful at the time.
The help of a kernel expert would also be very welcome.
As tsdtest said. I think the guy who ported it to the tabs has the nick vgrade1
Ye bouncing ideas on #moto-atrix is always welcome.

Progress on CM9?

Anyone know if there is a place to check for cyanogenmod updates? I know no deadlines, but gingerbread is so rough on a tablet.

I am also interested since I have seen working ports already for my electrify and some progress for the nook color

look at dalingrin's twitter for updates.
If you're wondering about ICS on the touchpad...look at dalingrin's twitter posts.
If you're looking for CM9, all i know is they've released a pre-alpha version of the launcher from CM9 for Devices with ICS....how far that puts them down the line to finishing it? I do not know but i'm waiting too (impatiently)
Here is the official source of CM news:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
I would imagine any general news on CM9 will be all over once its out. I saw the news on the launcher in at least 3 different sites within hours of the announcement.

I like how that was worded, it is truly rough. Phone versions of android do work on tablets but its clearly wrong.

Agreed Leo and Scott are doing a great job at developing cm7/MIUI to work on a tablet as best it can.. But it is almost a lost cause since ics is already on a lot of devices....
I'm sure modifying a kanged ROM is a lot easier than making a port/SDK ROM as a lot of the drivers have to be made from scratch... I've given up on android on the TP till ICS. When that happens ill donate a handsome reward to the team that does it.. till then... WebOS will have to do... As I only use it for media/web I'm good for now... I have a EVO 3d for apps and such that android excels in...

@dalingrin I know you don't give ETAs on anything, but is the ICS build anywhere close to GB Alpha 1? Thanks.
@dalingrin:
@SyncV2 Primary issues are GPU rendering under some circumstances and video playback. Hope to finally get back to working on it tonight.

Request for AOKP on Prime

So I posted this on the AOKP forums and was told someone would need to port and maintain the ROM. If so then we get an AOKP version...so any of our talented Devs wanna give it a shot? I would but I'm not a Dev/Coder so I wouldnt get far lol...I'm sure I'm not the only one that would love AOKP, I know CM9 is being built...but its far from finished if you've tried it then you know what I mean...So how about it Devs?

Not a dev either, but have to second this. AOKP is a very fine ROM and would be a great addition to the TFP.
when CM is here I believe AOKP is very possible, if it is wanted I'm sure someone will port it;-)

Someone want to enlighten the lazy as to what the AOKP ROM looks like? Maybe a link?

Here is a Link but no idea what it offers..
AOKP ROM is amazing.
I had a Droid Incredible before and was a Avid CM7 user. Never liked anything but CM7...
Then I got the GNex and since CM9 isn't really out yet, I had to settle, or so I thought.
AOKP has more features than you could ever imagine. Roman and the other devs do a great job of adding features. They also are active in the forums so if you have a feature request, they normally will add it if possible.
That said, I am not sure I will switch to CM9 when it is officially released for the GNex.
It is based off of the CM9 source, but he modifies it like crazy. Very stable on the GNex.
Yeah, I'm waiting with baited breath for AOKP for my prime. It was ported for my OG EVO & was the only alpha build i didn't ditch within a day in the whole time i've owned the phone. Roman is really on the cutting edge of truly original & helpful tweaks. Shoot, I was only savvy enough to be able to use maybe 2/3 of what he had in there. A power user's wet dream. Plus pink unicorns dripping with butter? C'mon! (You'll just have to check it out if this doesn't make sense)
Giefmeaokp! Aokp would be sweet. I'm refreshing the dev forum every 5 secs waiting for custom roms n kernels to pop up!

Dont think we need CM9 to be finished before AOKP...its not based of CM9 rather the AOSP builds from google. Cmon Devs Please =)

Just for the record, AOKP is NOT based off the CM9 source. Both are based off the AOSP main source tree. Certain features might be incorporated from one to the other, but that is simply the beauty and benefit of open source.
Roman is definitely following his own vision with AOKP and the results are impressive.
So word is if someone is willing to "maintain" AOKP on the TP it is likely we can get it ported.
I have no idea what that means, but I think it means this:
-Maintaining Thread
-Building and testing new builds
-Bug Fixes
I have little to no idea how to do this, so if anyone is capable then we might be able to get AOKP.

I'd be interested in this. More features/tweaks is the kinda stuff I like

[Think Tank] Getting some productivity out of our sweet tenderloin, somewhat.

Anyone care to port or help me port the Galaxy Note 10.1's TouchWiz interface. I know it is possible by removing the dependencies and everything else the apps rely on in the framework. I'd like to make this my little project if someone would kindly lend a helping hand in starting this endeavour. I would need major hand holding on this but I'm sure I can do most of the porting myself if someone would help me along the way. I'm just a Themer so I don't know much about coding, but I'm a quick learner

I'm currently running the Memo and Task Manager apps that came with the 1st Gen Galaxy S devices on my TouchPad.
If anyone's interested in this, please let me know.
The attached apk's were made possible by Tortel1210. Copy and paste the apps into /system/apps

Tortel1210 wrote up a great guide on how he got these proprietary apps to run on AOSP here -> http://epiccm.blogspot.com/2012/01/porting-touchwiz-apps-for-cm7.html
that would be pretty damn awesome! unfortunately i cant help at all and am completely clueless about programming
Do you wish to port the actual UI (the interface), or just port all of the apps that rely on the framework?

The UI, including the apps would be awesome as a full port. I asked a seasoned port master, Xboxfanj, from the Epic 4G forums to help along with this as a port. As soon as I hear from him on his participation in this project I'll let everyone else know so we can sync up and get this going. I *might be able to get the apps ported by myself, but I'll be sure to post back on my progress, or lack there of.

Hm... OK
I would offer to help, but I have several other projects I'm dedicated to, so I don't really have the time. Good luck though!
cool idea! would be awesome
curious if you got any people to help yet, or just going at it alone?
I'm a bit more interested in seeing that split screen functionality from the note 2 and 10.1 . Too bad I have no programming behind me :banghead:

You mean like this? Kinda old, but was stable. Definitely worth trying (I recommend the CM version)

Ran that a while back. Don't remember which build, but it didn't have working wallpapers
Wish it got updated. I mean the rest if the tp has moved quite well

This would be awesome. Hope you guys can get it figured out.
Thanks for that Memo App. it works nice on the TP. would be awesome if we could get something like the note going on this. anybody have a stylus they can recommend that is good for writing on tp?
