Hello fellow members of xda.
Today i've came across with the launching of Ubuntu Phone OS, which in my opinion will revolutionize the world of Smarth phones.
My question is, will Ubuntu Phone OS be available for Samsung Galaxy S2 ? Or will be there some compatibility issues?
Best regards,
Rui Duarte
It was just demoed and i believe that not even the sources are out, so it's hard to tell if it will run or not, but according to this an 1Ghz Cortex A9 cpu and 512mb of RAM is the minimum requeriment... so it might be possible...
in my opinion android and ios will having a hard time when its fully released
Will be released on 2014.who knows what goodies key lime pie will bring till then.i dont see it as a threat for android

It'll be released for Galaxy nexus b/w 8th to 12th January ^^
2014 is when it'll start shipping with phones as a standalone OS.

Watch "Ubuntu for phones - Industry proposition" on YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpWHJDLsqTU
Watch from around ~3 when they introduce OS. It's frigging amazing, finally some innovation and competition to Android.

Where did you read this? I just read about the OS not when it's ported to android.
I've read that they will release Ubuntu full image in few days or week. Here it is;
Given that Ubuntu is open source, a full Ubuntu image that can run on a Galaxy Nexus will be available within a few days or weeks.
I'm not a big fan of Ubuntu OS, but in my opinion Android will not be overwhelmed by Ubuntu Phone. With that unity like menu on the left side it's smell like windows phone on Samsung Omnia )

It isn't exactly " ported to android" there will be official Ubuntu image for gnex.
http://vrge.co/Ub3aB7
I'm really excited about this, even considering getting a nexus.

Btw, I'm sure that it can be ported to our sgs2, because the first full image will be for galaxy nexus and it would be easy to port it, imo.

It isn't same as porting ROMs mate. And I don't know about details ATM, otherwise I'd have told exact answer.

You may be right, you are much better developer than me I'm sorry about that
So lets wait couple of days and see what this "Ubuntu image" looks like..
Btw, I'll be waiting for the exact answer from you!

I'm no developer mate, but have learnt a lot, got a lot of developer friends
Edit: Again, its open source os like android. We'll need sources to run it, reverse engineering worked for 4.2.1 but it is still broken. Porting that stuff to another os will be a nightmare.
Edit 2: I might be wrong and would love to be wrong

I need some developer friends, too :laugh: Btw, I thought that we can completely change our os from android to ubuntu, rather than porting it to another os.
I wish you are wrong mate :laugh:

When you install a new OS on your PC, does your GPU work without drivers? GNex has omap which is open source. Any other phone with Qualcomm/Omap chip set can have it but not us.

You are talking about windows where gpu drivers are not installed but on ubuntu open source gpu drivers are pre-installed
Also i have some good news : http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=cpWHJDLsqTU#t=1249s

I really hope it is possible but maybe it is more difficult than porting touch wiz 4 to sgs. Screen resolution is completely different now, sgs instead had the same resolution of sgs2. Anyway I definitely hope it can be done and s voice is not device locked as siri is, so we can use it a well

ofc and for those who saying the screen res is a proplem hello go check how sense 4 was ported to htc sensation and desire iam sure we will getting all of the features my fear is that some of those features are related to hardware

wait for a little while i think samsung is planning to update it to 4.0 since pocket+ (who has similar spec) will be released in 4.0
i hope will be released android 4.0 or 4.1 official for pocket
Rather than creating threads which will go down un noticed, contact some developers. make a positive approach guys posting threads here won't attract any devs

I don't think Android 4.0 will ever come out on GP as it is a low-end device!

s5300 camera
Hello. This is my first post about galaxy pocket and, surprisingly, nobody has talked about its 2MP camera ...
With its powerful 830Mhz core, is it possible to improve video recording to 640x480 @30fps... or at least, 480x360 @20fps or more if possible?

If Broadcom releases driver source then kitkat is also possible for galaxy pocket.........Learn something about cyanogenmod
It's time to try out new devices, No time for some handset devices like Galaxy pocket cos it's time for lollipop not some crazy android 2.3 Gingerbread
Is it possible to have on display two applications at the same time? E.g. Chrome and google translate?
As far as I know: nope.
Only in Galaxy Note 2 is something like that.
There are some works here on XDA to port this feature to other devices... Even Samsung is going to port it to the SGS3. Just wait for now...
Isn't this a feature of android 4.2?
On my SGS3 it runs very good. Would be nice to have it on tablet.
SGS2-i9100; SGS3-i9300; Archos 101 Turbo (G9/250gb/512mb)

When jellybean is available for the devices like the s3, note, and s2, this feature will be included from what Samsung has said. My note is waiting impatiently.

There this http://www.onskreen.com/cornerstone/ looks interesting and open source, Don't know what required to make it work, I did clone it into my github with the intention of having a look but I got distracted with some other code
Alrighty guys I am wanting to stretch the devices that I dev for. I can develop for pretty much any device! If you have a need in a ROM and want me to full fill that then please comment below or just PM me! i would love to start deving for other devices!

Can You Dev for the Samsung Dart. Just go to Github and type it in, source under DashBlack. There are also some CM7 roms for it so you can port, located at MadTeam forums. Development has really slowed down and it would help if you could port just one rom for it. Just Google CM7 Samsung Dart. If you could build ICS or Jellybean for it that would be AWESOME!! Doesn't even have to be stable, just make it boot

OK sorry for asking
Nice
Who knows ?
Let's wait until Google releases it to AOSP.... Hopefully some one will make at least a booting build for us.. HOPEFULLY
Also I am curious how the phone will perform with all these animations everywhere... HOPEFULLY -again- it performs well...
I am almost certain that Android Lollipop will arrive for our S II. Its such a great device and not outdated by any means ( Mali-400MP4 GPU - quad core gpu-think about it), but the concern may be the updated drivers, if i am correct. BUT the latest Android One smartphones also have a similar GPU (Mali-400), but i wonder if its the same, and hopefully the drivers can be backported to S II.
We're waitin' 4 ya, Lollipop!
