All we need is a few devs to port it to our Infuses, but basically everything but the camcorder works! (Camera works, just no recording)
Can't wait until something is available for us to try.

I think we would need a modified kernel to port it

I was playing with it a little bit earlier. Couldn't get it to even flash. I didn't look into it much though. I was going to try flashing it and then Hellraiser just for fun to see if it would work.

Hmmm maybe.... or get linux to do some reverse engenerring lol.
You would have to rewrite the updater script to even get it to flash properly before anything else

ICS thoughts
I am really hoping that ICS will get ported to the Infuse, I have been running an alpha on my Inspire for the last 2 days and I really like the direction it takes Android. It will look better on the slightly bigger better Infuse screen and faster proc.
Cheers

The kernels are veeeery different though (2.6.35 for GB, 3.x for ICS unless I'm mistaken) so I'm not too sure what we can do unless someone compiles one from source...........

I know someone will port it. I can see LB working on it right now. We just need to be patient and it will come.
And D, I'm sure you are also working on this. Port masta
Sorry for the delay in getting something out. Due to a specific bug and general lack of power on my main system, I've decided to set up a MONSTER build system that should build ICS in no time. The issue is, it's not wanting to install Ubuntu 64 bit. With Ubuntu 32 bit it will only show up as 8 CPUs and 2 GB of RAM (though that should be more, it's still a very small fraction of what it has). I've been trying all day to get it to install and it's been fighting me every step of the way from EFI issues to SATA III issues. Once I get it up and running I should be able to get some builds going. Stay patient!
Well, if it helps any, I've got a Fedora 15 box I do my builds on. I've got a ssh port open for it. You're welcome to use that for the time being if you'd like. It's a little older, but it builds nicely (Dual 3.2GHz Xeon, 12GB RAM).

Maybe you can do something with this: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/cm9-cyanogenmod-9-for-galaxy-s/ Remmeber our device is pretty much the same thing as this with few differences, letting hope rain on us . You guys could use that to start, just a problem is since it is related to Cyanogen mod maybe linux is a guy to contact, he will not answer my pms idk he may be gone.
We're definitely going to need a kernel developer to bring us Linux 3.x.x.x

We should set a bounty, lol. Idk what to give though, maybe some free mp3s or email them an itunes gift card number hmmmm.
So, would it be possible for us to have some devs porting a building ubuntu phone for the GS3 on verizon?
I don't think the source code has been released by Canonical yet so it is a no for now.
i am pretty much sure ubuntu would come for gs3...if not they will build it and release it ..its still in development stage
This is totally within the realm of possibilities, and I for one am stoked. It's still in development, but as I understand it, they are adding support for android drivers, so if hardware works with android, it will work with ubuntu.
Ubuntu
Not sure if you are talking natively or running as an "app".
But you can already run Ubuntu on your SGS3.
It runs as an "app", meaning that it still uses the Android OS as the Hypervisor and you"remote" into the Ubuntu session.
Works pretty well though.
But not an Ubuntu phone.

I'm pretty sure they are adding android hardware support to the actual mobile OS, the idea being able to run Ubuntu with a stock image. If that's not the case, I'm selling my GS3 for the Ubuntu phone, don't care if its a downgrade the new mobile platform seems to one up android conventionality.

This has been an intriguing development. As a Linux user, the only really integration that may be possible will be incredible. Can't wait to see this on the GS3!

i wonder how that would be like!
It probably won't come for any CDMA phones any time soon. Verizon is all CDMA. Ubuntu phone OS won't officially support CDMA I don't believe.

Ubuntu stated that the OS works better on multi-core devices. We can still try to see if it works...

Seeing what it did to some of the nexus 4 peoples phone I think it's a crap shot and very risky. There is a git that just got his nexus two days ago and already bricked out from flashing a alpha build of Ubuntu mobile.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah I messed around with it yesterday on my galaxy nexus. It's still in the very beginning of alpha stages in my opinion.
But there were allot of people having trouble going back to android afterwards on the galaxy nexus forums but no bricks. It's a cool idea but I think it needs some time to mature like android did.

Since Ubuntu is using CM as source I'd say it's possible. They seem to be optimizing it towards duel core(possibly quad by the time it's fully released) devices though. So why it should be portable to this phone the experience may be less the stellar. Think of running a new PC game on a three year old PC and you get the idea.

I hear it builds just like CM. A guy is building it for the Rocket as we speak. Or trying to. It's still so early in the development phase that even getting it to boot will be a challenge in and of itself. But you know the deal. You build it I'll log it. I'll have to look into what package would be needed to log it. lol

since they use cm as a base I don't see why it wouldn't since Erik got cm10.1 to work on this device.

The biggest hurdle from what I seen posted is the transition of VM between android and Ubuntu. For the most part I think the issues with building and actually getting it to boot is the different Vm the two OS's use.
I wanna post the link just to say that I didn't see it on this thread twice already but here:

. It looks intricate but it's not really different from porting a new rom . I can't wait to tinker with this...

Although it looks pretty cool, the only thing I use Ubuntu for is for Eclipse and I wouldn't program Java in a phone. If it's on a Nexus 7 (other tablets too) then OK, but why would anyone want Ubuntu on their phones? Serious, not hating.
Being able to run both Ubuntu apps and Android would be fun.
Hey guys... I'm still itching to get in the heart of development. So beings I'm limited on computer hardware, I want to take baby steps and try to pump out a couple kernels... Now my computer is 32 bit. I've read numerous threads, articles and how tos about kernel building, there are definitely a few that build on 32 bit..
I am dual booting windows XP and Ubuntu 12.10.. I've installed the SDK, JDK, and NDK.. Also have the OneXL kernel source downloaded ready to roll.
I guess my question is, is there anyone willing to mentor me and show me a bit on how its done? The tutorials are fairly vague, and most are missing crucial starting points for beginners in Ubuntu. I'm willing to do team viewer, gtalk, hell even messaging and calls. I want to build an aosp kernel and a sense kernel..
So Im begging the community for someone to step up and and help a fella out

So I've seen a few pages using 32 bit to compile ROMs and kernels... I know mine won't do Roms, I know it'll probably melt the processor lol.... But I should be able to at least compile a kernel with 32 bit? Are the commands the same or would I have to do something different? I'm having trouble just getting started... Terminal in ubuntu is a bit trickier than windows and I can't seem to get the paths right even to my home folder... FML lol...

Well, you could do what I did. Grab a distro, and get acustom to it. I prefer it over Windows now. I only use Windows when I need to use certain windows application. But most of the time I can use Wine (windows emulator in linux). I use linux mint, which is based off of ubuntu and uses the debian system. Fedora is another good. I suggest trying out different distrso by doing the live usb run. If you like it, partition your drive and dual boot windows...it is really simple
I just got ubuntu all setup in vmware. Ready to go now.

Hmm I could be wrong but I don't think vmware works well with the process. I know to use jet downgrade tool you have to be running it solo. I think you can install it in windows but I do believe you have to boot into it vs vmware. Now you got me curious , I'm gonna try a couple things .
