Hello fellows
I've seen the ongrowing ubuntu release for the Prime, and I'd like to know please the current state of the project?
In the thread (/showthread.php?t=1603921) it is written that there are few bugs \ unworking stuff, but from a quick look on the comments I could understand that alot have been fixed, and I'd really like to know what are the current state of it? What are the known bugs? and how does it work on the Prime (laggy, or fluent?).
Also, may I have a detailed tutorial to REMOVE COMPLETELY the Android system, and put in the Ubuntu, if I can? Or atleast a tutorial on how to install Ubunto?
Thanks in advance for your HUGE help for my long *ss question...

Nope, project got cancled. Since "Little Steve" (the dev behind it) has an Windows 8 tablet he won't continue it, I asked him via Twitter.
Well, and no you can't get Windows 8 either on it (sadly).

Alright well I got my HTC HD2 a few weeks ago, and I was searching around Google and stumbled apon xda-developers.com I found a few cool things for my phone like CHT, and a few other apps...but I dont see the big picture here. What are ROMs? Are they operating systems? and what does everyone mean by "flashing a rom" or something like that. Haha im sorry if this is in the wrong part of the forum. Could someone just enlighten me on this stuff, and maybe suggest some cool things I can do to my phone, or some apps i should get.
First off the search button is your friend ...
So I am going to give you a quick explanation and you can search and look in the various threads for your answers ....
A ROM is the the component of your phone where your Operating system and included apps are stored ...
The term ROM on this site refers to "Replacements" for the stock system that is installed on your phone, sometimes there are updated stock ROMs here too ..
There are certain things you need to know before considering flashing a ROM and you can find that info in various threads here ...
If you have a TMO US HD2 then you have to make sure the ROM is compatible, TMO US HD2 is a little different than the International one , more ram for one thing.
Now some ROMs have more things than a stock ROM some have less, it is all about personal choice when it comes down to that, some ROMS are more stable than others, some are faster, just depends ....
The Developers of these ROMs, or "Cooks or Chefs" as they like to be called, may do some serious customizing to their ROMs or leave them close to stock, again a personal choice for you ...
I would suggest you do some reading on Flashing, and about your hardware, the only problem with starting to flash your phone is, it is addictive ....
Hope this helped ....
p.s. Read Read Read, and make sure you understand what you are getting into, you can turn your phone into an expensive paperweight if you are not careful ...

Hahahahaha. You too? Yeah we got these like the week after they came out and a buddy of mine told me about this site and I've been hooked on it since. Then the GF gets mad when I'm looking stuff and chaning themes and stuff. She says that its stupid, but the second i offer to change the theme on her phone, it ain't stupid then
Didnt realize i was an addict till i saw the posting of one of your bookmark tab being this forum. :s
Now that you've mentioned it, my gf would be angry when i am with my 'gadget' cos this hd2 is like a swiss army knife for me. Using it for picts, vids, games, work, net..heck, this current hd2 doesnt even do calls. Only does my mobile broadband.
btw. there's no perfect rom.(before you ask this) The only perfect ones are the ones that you favour most.
GF is one thing, wife is another entirely.
But I agree, its not so stupid when you are improving her phone
my gf claims I'm having an affair with my phone/xda
She wants me to go "cold turkey"..... Not happening!
I'm kinda worried that when i try to type "gf" the xt9 tries to change it to "hd".....
maybe its trying to get her out of the picture....
Hy.
I`ve been posted somewere a identical question but no one answered.
It`s there any way to pause video rec. and then resume it and so on, how many times i want ? Even with a vga cam this could be possible.
nobody ? oh god.
sorry for 2-end topic.
Wow ! You registered back in 2009... Waited until May to make your first thread... And then waited almost two more months before posting another one...
**Lurker ALERT !!!**
Just kidding.
No, I'm sorry but I've got no idea if there's a way to pause video recordings or not but it would be a nice feature.
Sorry that I couldn't help but I thought you at least deserved one reply (I felt sorry for you)..
Oh thanks. Usually, i do not tend to make posts here, only if there is something very important, like now
Eh, maybe someone can do something about that. I really want to have this feature. I`ll wait...

Actually what you suggest is a fabulous idea however, never seen executed on any type of mobile platform, have we? This would certainly be a unique feature. Let's hope some OS developer picks that up...

Why did you buy it if you didnt like it? If you want Android on a handset buy a handset with it on it.
Makes no sense to me to buy something unless you like it.

geez, calm down mate -.-
i bought the Mozart coz I got it on a deal. I very sceptical about WP7 (though I'm hoping to write some apps for it).
Android looks pretty cool and I've wanted to try it out for some time now. Looks like i'll be stuck with WP7 though :/
at any rate, it was an innocent question. take a chill

I am a bit angry because in all wp7 forums the first what is asked when they can expect android on it , and it are almost all junior members .
they have to read first and then ask/post something .
personal , I hope android will never be ported to wp7 .
Agreed with ameel, simple questions.
Hey guys!
Is it possible to use the camera apk from galaxy S3 in our good ol' S2?
I saw the features of S3 and the camera app looks really good and functional..
Pull the apk off your SIII and find out.

Okay, consider this. Ask one of the owners of an SIII to pull the apk and framework off it for you.
Stop and think about it for a minute.

There was no sarcasm in my post. I'm just trying to get you to think logically about what you're asking. You said you wanted to learn.
I admire & respect you for trying to get people to think logically/coherently around here before posting crap Oinky, which the OP seems to be doing a lot on here lately. He's got more than a few mates tho.
However, it's an exercise in futility. Most people here don't want the logical/simple that requires a bit of work on their part. They want the complex/convoluted that requires effort on the part of everyone but them :-/

I'm not as experienced in android as you are mate. I was asking if theoretically its possible. If you don't have anything useful to say regarding my question, please move along. And keep your wit to yourself.
1) I did say something 'useful' which was proportionate to the question.
2) No.
Thanks for playing.
Edit to add - Again, think for a moment. Different phone. Will require different firmware/framework; I.E SGS2 roms will not run on the SGS3, of course the camera apk for the S3 won't work on the S2. Do you see anyone on here running the camera apk from the Nexus on their S2 ?
As we've said, a few moments of logical thinking could have negated the need for this pointless thread.

So... You're asking a theoretical question about an .apk file from a phone that has yet to be commercially released, if it will work on an I9100?

See, now was that too hard? Thanks for explaining. I've learnt a thing or two from you.
I read about porting ROMs and was under the impression that the same applies for .apk
This wasn't pointless. At least for me.
No, it wasn't hard. And that's exactly the point several people have tried to illustrate for you, but it has gone way over your head. You just don't get it.
Now then, that's it for me. You're beginning to drag me down to your level & I know I've got no chance Vs your experience (some people reading this will understand where I'm coming from).

( question for a question ) What do you wish to do with the Nook that it is not doing yet ? There is the ( wise ) old adage, if its not broke, don't fix it !
.
Here's something you can do. Go to the front door of the Nook forum,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1394
When search is back up. I went there right now and it says :
"Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience."
.
Search on the term "1.43" and see what people are saying about it. Search has a cool trick where it'll show you the link to the forum post. Very nice...

Kind of what I was going for. Alway's heard old_fart was a tough nut to crack. So thought I would give it a go. All in fun. Some people say stay with it and some people say upgrade. Just get's a bit confusing as to what you gain or lose.
But I will definitely try that Google search engine thingy I've been reading so much about.

Not sure getting it sorted out was and option. I think what he was basically telling me that if it isn't broke don't fix it. Is that Socrates verbiage he used?
