To have Ubuntu touch on our device we need to have Kernel Sources which micromax have not released yet(correct me if I am wrong). I saw once Kumar Abhishek was mentioning about CINK FIVE Kernel sources which we might can use for our device(I am not sure, just sharing what I have read), but I am not sure if anybody started kernel development for our device yet(As of I know no news yet)
Also Ubuntu Touch is still have BUGS.
Coming to ubuntu experience, search for Complete Linux installer (If I am right a116 have a thread for it) which give you access to Desktop Ubuntu on your device. (like running a Linux Virtual Machine in your machine)

Thanks for informing...

Well i was just going throught the canvas2(A110) development thread and happen to find that there are now 2 kernels available for its chipset. So i was wondering if any of the devs here might ask the original developer of those kernels to help them in porting it for our device.
It would be really great if we can build it from groud up.
And also sony has released most of the sources for there device XPERIA C which has the same chipset and almost same specs as Canvas HD.
Hope to get some prositive replies.
Fingers Crossed.
Regards,
Jay..!!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443987 -[4.1.x-4.2.x] andiroxu's Kernel
For Now,
The answer is no.
The reasons are listed below.
No phone can accept kernels from other phones unless it is a clone.
Micromax Canvas HD and Xperia C have common CPU's but aren't Clones.
Micromax Canvas HD cannot use Canvas A110 kernel because they have different CPU's.
Kernels cannot be ported unless the complete source for both the kernels is available.
We will wait for Xiaomi sources and see if they are of use.
We will soon have ROMS based on Android 4.3 as Micromax is releasing an OTA Update for Micromax Canvas HD.
Anyone interested in porting or compiling AOSP or Cyanogenmod (Android 4.3) for Micromax Canvas HD?
I can provide any system files needed from device.
Or guide me to compile or port.

what kind of files are you talking bro? afaik for compiling a rom, you need to have the device vendor tree and the source repo. if you have that, can you give me the link to the git? thanks

I don't have sources. And I don't think micromax releases any. My brother own Micromax Canvas HD. He was asking me for 4.3 ROM for many days. So, I asked him to create thread from my account. May be he was meaning to stock ROM files.
Sorry for inconvenience.

is your phone have dual sim functionality?
cyanogenmod only supports single sim phones
yes micromax canvas hd is dual

Unfortunately in addition to the issue with Cyanogenmod only officially supporting single SIM devices, it would be quite difficult if not impossible to add full functionality for all aspects of your device because it uses a Mediatek Chipset and Micromax and Mediatek don't provide the kernel source code that would be necessary to get everything on your device working properly on a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod.
I'm going to port the CM12.0 by kashif.min to make it more stable.... I'm going to download the "MyPhone A919i stock rom" because MyPhone A919i is just a clone of Micromax Canvas HD... and to download a lollipop kernel and then, I'm going to port it for CyanogenMod 12.0 make it stable as well...

Sorry for a very long reply, Just compiled and ported it on MyPhone A919i but the bugs are the same as the cm12.0 build for canvas hd... i wont port it for now, I'm just going to make a Lineage OS lollipop build for MT6589 devices. and I'm going to port the Lollipop kernel too. Keep tuned!
