Are you interested in running Ubuntu on your EVO? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20891868

Is this the full OS?

I mean it's not even released yet I can't judge it. But from the looks of it looks nice but I don't think it will be a primary os for me.

I Would Give It A Try. Idk If Its Gonna Be A Long-Term Relationship Though.

I would rock ubuntu on my phone as a second OS / dual boot option for sure ..

If They Make A ROM For The OG Evo, I'll Definitely Flash It. (My EVO 4G Is Like My Testing Phone). If I Like It Then...Maybe On The LTE.

This looks awesome. Saw it earlier today in the gnex forum. But that was just screenshots, a banner, not an actual article.
I don't get it, in the article, they talk about,. "...meh, who wants a full fledged PC OS on a phone?". I ask, ...who doesn't? I loved winmo because it WAS like a PC on my HTC diamond (after removing TF3D/manila). In fact, it was using winmo that gave me the nerve to turn on and use a PC (yes, I'm old and computer illiterate) . Who knows, maybe this OS could give me the nerve to boot Ubuntu on a PC lol

[Q] any decent video ringtone app?

hey guys.
back on my OG Evo 4G i was rocking a customized version of Vringo that I had whipped up. unfortunately it seems as if Vringo was pulled from the market and/or doesn't exist anymore.
I found a couple of apps, the best one so far is called Video Caller ID (free) and it seems to do what I want well. I have a very high bitrate .mp4 file and it looks amazing when I get a call. problem is the UI leaves much to be desired.
i've got the app on my desktop and will try to modify the layout and do some photoshop magic, but i'm wondering if there is already a decent (in features) and good-looking app that will do the same?
anyone else have a video ringtone app or like the idea of using one? let's talk about it.
thanks for any info you can share.
I too would like to know if anyone knows....

I used to rock the video and sound of the Metal Gear Solid codex thing, and it was awesome. (Thanks, forgot about that..)

I think the one I have works nicely. i just need to do the themeing/modding myself, and don't have much time

Thinking of getting the thunderbolt and have questions

Hello!
I am wanting to know what u think of this phone, also my incredible is getting a little slow and this one is said to have more ram and better CPU. Does its GPS work good I am finding my inc is not working right there, also will this be getting cm10.1 like my inc has? Thank you so much for the help, the myn reason I like it is it only costs under 80 $ on eBay or glyde.com lol

the only difference is the CPU stepping, a smidge bigger battery (which will last the same time for the bigger screen), a bigger screen.
Although the CPU is a S2 there really is no difference in the two. GPS does go out on some Thunderbolt's. CM10.1 is JB; I and a couple
more devs are working on it right now, though CM9 isn't even fully working. which is ICS. If you have S-OFF AND full root then you will
have great fun with it. The Thunderbolt won't disappoint... I have played with both and they are just as fast... I say go for it!
oh with dual 3G radios you cannot go wrong :b
Also what do u think about the rezound I can get one of those for under 130$ is it better ?

I say dont get the tb. Its old outdated and runs hot enough to keep your pocket warm on a cold day. If u look around a bit more a 100 bucks will take you a bit farther then the tb. Being as it was the first real 4g phone it has quite a few issues. Data stalls being a major flaw in the device. I had 4 in my house hold. And htc chased me right over to samsung. Its was good in its day but so was commodore 64 but u wont see anyone using one

Thanks I will get ether the bolt or the rezound but most likely the rez. Just have to find one I can buy for under 140$ I would like under 100$ but that is not happening unless I get a cracked screen one lol I have been looking on eBay and that is where o have found them the cheapest, any one know of where to get a good deal or have one for sell?

even over-clocked and using it for constant radio (BT) streaming it never got warm on me.
I was running ICS Bliss on it... which isn't released yet but hey....
I had the bolt and it never ran hot unless I was charging it and running tethering at the same time. if the phone was running hot all the time you either had the governor set to performance or you had a bad battery. I have the rezound now and loads better over the bolt. so get that over the bolt you won't be sorry. the only thing the bolt had over the rezoind was it was so easy to unlock and get s off. even with the latest boot loader update the bolt got its still easier. with the resound to get s off you have to do the wire trick.
you can look on swappa for phones as many people buys them on there.

I had a thunderbolt before getting a S3 and there are times I miss the bolt. I had great luck with each ROM (SOAB, Thunder Shed, and Santod's ICS Eternity. Heck, I would have loved trying his new Bliss ROM. If you decide you want a bolt and I can figure out how to clear mine I can sell you it with an OEM and Rezound battery, a couple of cases (including a PowerSkin case) for $100. I have been hanging on to it in case a developer needed it, so no worries if you would prefer the Rezound.

From what I heard the latest RAZR seems to be great. No one one knows how long a device will be supported by the dev community. Just remember moto phones has encrypted bootloader so you can't achieve full root.

Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
It may happen someday, it's probably not a high priority issue with the devs working on the AOSP based roms though, stick to Sense if you need MHL... It looks like it's working on some Sense 4 based roms now...

I dont think we will ever see MHL work in a AOSP rom, not so much a CM10 thing as its a AOSP thing. I want to say that it has to do something HTC code and not a google code. I could be wrong, but for as long as AOSP has been on this phone, i dont beleive MHL has ever been support on it
---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------
Actually just jumped over to the dev part, and it appears the MHL is a sense only thing meaning that it does have to do with some sort of HTC that is most likey closed source. So it will probably never happen
thanks I am just trying to figure out if I want the droid razr or this phone and the razr has hdmi and that is part if the phone lol also it runs android 4.1 out of the box now and I am just thinking if it will be supported longer with the devs because of that.

the rez is an older phone so i would imagine that support for it will start to drop in the near feature as HTC moves away from it, there will be less and less support because we are currently getting bits and pieces from other HTC phones to get JB to work as the rez will prob never see it. So as the 8660 platform goes away, we will be seeing less and less stuff happening for this phone...its sad, but its what happens
so would the razr be more supported?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
Well the org RAZR was released around the same time so its prolly going to be in the same situation at some point. It depends what your doing with it. You will have more options with an HTC phone then a moto because moto is notorious for locking the boot loader so devs tend not to work with them. Not that there isn't custom ROMs just not as much. Personally if it was me I would say the rez. I have one and love it and support isn't going to drop tomorrow for it. Its still a good phone with decent hardware. The problem we will run into is new OS support. Like we might not see klp on the rez. It might stop at jb but that yet to be seen. Both phones are very good I know ppl that have the RAZR and love it. The few features you don't get with cm based ROMs with the rez def should not stop you from considering it. The dev for this phone is still strong and still has a huge support following

its a sense only thing because its not just an HDMI port. HTC has the code for the MHL and they aren't sharing.
i think its a money thing. if we had source we could make every phone have MHL
What about the Samsung phones having mhl? Could u use that ?

The screen may be wider, but if you compare them side by side, I believe you will choose the rezound. 720p and much higher PPI. You can watch movies on this phone comfortably and they look great. But for battery, the razr wins, unless you get an extended, but it will make the rezound 2x thick. Still, the screen is something to behold...
Well I think the rezound Is good just some of the things the razr has out weighs the rezound. Thank you to all for you help!

Just traded my Galaxy S4 for the One.

At first, wasn't digging the briwser, because it's slower than the s4, but this thing is silky smooth with apps and etc.
Although I'm kinda pissed, because the guy I traded with had a pretty busted up ONE, and lied to me on the phone about the phones condition, while I had a mint condition s4.
Overall satisfied. Screen size could be better, but overall nice.
Why do you prefer the ONE over the s4.

Are you talking about the stock HTC browser? Did I get a defective phone? Not being a smart ass. I really think I did. The stock browser literally takes 10-15 seconds to load certain websites.

Would you or anyone want MIUI ?
I'm not a HUGE fan but its nice to have choices. MIUI seems too iPhone-y to me. Although the newest version (6?) I've heard, fixed that and made it WAY more customizable.
I like the WinMo option the best because of the integration with ms games and office365 etc. If I could dual boot anything it would be WinMo and android. I did that for YEARS with my titan. WinMo for work, android for home. It was awesome.
