Alright so im going to start by just saying that i had a similar project going with the galaxy nexus but I ran into kernel panic issues, that and I just got busy with life( school, work, job, etc). Now my time has freed up due to my last semester in school. So I am looking to pick this project back up but for the galaxy s3 Verizon...
Now i already have a compiled image based on the Ubuntu Leo originally created for the HD2( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOPu6DgbOs4 ) ......... this week i will be working on a kernel.
Now the image itself has been modified slightly from the hd2 version,...I will be looking for devs to help me with a kernel if this is you and you would be interested in helping please pm me. if you would like to alpha this also pm me ill start a list in this thread. Looking to get this going quick. ill have the image up by the end of the week if anyone is interested in experimenting with it. and i'm hoping for an alpha stage build by the end of the month.
If you have any questions just ask away.
Project Ubuntu
What you need to know
There is plans on having fully 3g/4g capability
Plans on MMS Capability
This is not a direct full desktop port. Its a modified/ optimized for armed devices based on the image used with the HD2
It will use a Linux based android Kernel
If you would like to Alpha this please PM me, and if you would like to help with the kernel ( I could use the help) also PM me.
I will update with progress later, and update with more details later. The point in doing this is the exact same as it has been in the past....because it would be pretty flipping awesome and secondly this would open Ubuntu up, it would offer up just another OS option.
PLEASE VIEW THE VIDEO TO GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THE BUILD IS LIKEHERE
Awesome.
I have a question though. Will the OS boot as a stand alone operating system or will it boot inside android?
my tapatalk signature sucks more than yours.
It will be a stand alone no chrooted. It to start will run along side android booting from the sdcard like a dual boot set up. After beta it will be flashed in place of android
Sounds great

Sounds cool but what is the point of doing it on a phone? It would be impossible to use. Should do it for the Nex10.

It is very possible to use, I have chroot linux mint running on my phone right now.
I direct port would make much smoother and more compatible as well. Just imagine connecting a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and hooking up to your tv. Extremely portable linux machine.

I don't see how it would work since everything would be shrunk down and hard to tap on. Also still not portable as you would need to carry around a mouse and keyboard. Just my opinion. Once again cool idea but i don't see it as being useful on such a small screen.

First off try looking at the youtube video.... the port its self has been modified for armed devices ( hense the youtube video) Second the version of ubuntu my image is based off of does have 3g capability writing a module to use with 4g wouldn't be to difficult. Third just to make this clear when beta is released it will have MMS Capability, and Phone capability. Again look at the youtube video. its not a direct port from the desktop version its an optimized and modified for armed devices.

Good work and great idea! I would be more than happy to test the beta of this out...I need reliability, so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to go through the alpha paces for more than a day.

Hey guys sorry for the delay in response.... I I am officially done with classes as of Fridayso..
Secondly tmr ill be updating the oOpp possible starting a whole new development Opp.
Right now I'm currently working on a kernel.. I its coming along but slow. I appreciate the support ill update the this Opp when I get home.
THIS is what I have been waiting for! I'm no dev, but I would love to see this happen and am willing to help how I can (testing, bouncing ideas off of, etc). I'll see if I can't rustle up a bit of support as well, shouldn't be hard to get a few capable souls interested, especially if you post this in the other carrier forums and see if this can be cross-device compatible for all carrier variants?

Hello all!
First and foremost thanks to blindndumb, kushdeck, and the creators of JoyOS. It's because of them that I was able to follow a guide and get this sucker started...
So thanks to blindndumb's awesome guide a noob like me was able to port JoyOS to our beloved EVO4G. This will be my first time performing any sort of port as I'm still in the beginner stages of it all... Given that any and all help (Knowledge) is welcomed and greatly appreciated!!
The base rom used is EVODecks 1.3 Stable (My daily driver and all time favorite)
It's sporting the stock cyanogen kernel 2.6.37.6-cyanogenmod-01509-g8913be8
So what works after 24hrs of testing:
Everything!!... Well sort of: Except 4g (Unable To Test) & some users are finding that 3g is unreliable
What doesn't work:
4g & 3g (case by case)....

Anyone wanna give some feedback on this rom before I flash it?
Running good so far. Had issues with no data but enabled and disabled airplane mode and it seemed to clear it up. Flashed Mason G 0.14 and it is going smooth. Haven't had a hiccup. Music, Camera and messaging apps seem to be working good. Love how it has the iOS feel to it. Reminds me of when I had my iPod touch, but with the awesomeness of AOSP. I will keep messing with this for the remainder of the night and in to tomorrow to test out battery life. Gonna setup my CoD tweaks now.
Update: Sent MMS just fine. No issues so far except for the data not working after the phone boots up. Had it happen again after I restarted my phone. Also when a text is received, the screen does come on so its kinda cool. Never messed with JoyOS or heard of it so this is all new to me. Will try 4G later when I am in coverage area. Only 3G for me right now, but data speeds are fairly decent.
thanks for the update!!!

In OP it states that its based off Decks 1.3, so that's Gingerbread.
I'm liking the feel of this rom so far. Running v1.1 with Mason G v.14 kernel. Only problem I seem to be having is the data. I've tried enabling/disabling Airplane Mode, but a no go. Anyone else find a solution to this?

It requires linux kernel 3.3 + not sure if its because of the android patchs that were added to that version, or because it really needs linux 3.3, if the later, we probably won't see webOs running on android devices for a while.

I think it's great that WebOS can now make its way to the latest and greatest from Android, but I don't know if I see much a point, no android device has a gesture area... Unless someone can make a capacitive-to-screen upward swipe do something, just as well for left and right across the home, menu, back and search buttons...or WebOS could be adapted to use the four buttons, that sounds more practical.
Even still, it would have to have Play Store access and be able to run Android apps if it were to be more than a toy.
I'd still like to see it on my Thunderbolt.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app
There is an android launcher, wave, that mimics the webOS wave very well and shows that a gesture area is feasible - use the wave all the time on my GNote. I never got the webOS wave working right but it is perfect on my GNote.

I will note that the HP Touchpad did not have a gesture area either, just the main "Home" button or whatever you want to call it. It was setup that the home button would bring you to card view. There was really no need with for menu buttons or anything else with the way WebOS was setup. It worked quite well, and I would love to see this on more Android built phones.
First ports!
FYI, there is now a Google Nexus and a Transformer Prime ports, still in very early stages, but I can't wait to see now what OE will become, finally some hopes for this great OS

*Bugs*So*Far
When entering landscape and exiting landscape on the LG launcher it force closes for some reason.
Some LG generic icons show till a reboot happens ( first boot only )
LG Music widget isn't working ( looking for an easy fix or removal ).
*Tweaks*
There are some tweaks too like long hold of power while screen is off activates torch.
Pressing the camera button while screen is off and music is playing will pause/play current track.
The rom looks like cm9 other than launcher so I dunno if you would consider it a port lol...

I just want to be sure before I get to deep with it. And like I said I don't have much info other than what's here was pulled from an LG ICS leaked system dump. It was done for the evo shift and I talk to the dev all the time so I'm going to see if I can help him iron out his issues along the way of this one because I also support that phone with a different ROM/kernel. I don't want to get ahead of myself, I'm busy till Sunday but wanted feed back on the idea. In the mean time I'm going to run what I have just to get a feel for it and the bugs it has. Once I get a chance to look at the dump ill be able to see if there are little pieces left out that could/would be causing the force close issues with a couple things. Or they could just be broke that's why its a leak anyways I'm off to bed for a change

Best bet would be to post in development section regarding this. I don't think much of the flash junkies ever visit the general sub forum unless they have some problems with their device! lol!
Anyways a Work in Progress is already considered as development right? So I don't think that would make it offtopic.

Sense is heavy and bloated. I really hate that about it. What really draws me to this is that its based on Cyanogenmod. CM has really nice tweaks and features, some I've come to feel I can't live without nowadays. I don't think there's a device I could get and not use CM on it. This would be a really nice change from stock CM for me

Would be nice to try it out! Can't hurt to have an addition to the ROM choice here right!? :beer:
Thanks Strapped. Family comes first.
::Respect::
I'd love to take a look at that one myself Strapped. Looks a bit different. Seems to have some visual enhancement to it too but I can't quite put my finger on just what.....maybe something about the app drawer icon shading. And to be honest with you I've always been a bigger fan of CM9 derivatives than the original. No offense to the CyanogenMod team tho..........
Love to see YOU get your hands on this one! :good:
Yeah I def need to figure something out. Its a port from a system dump, to the evo shifts cm9 rom, then ported from that device to ours. Its running the LG launcher and also the motoblur ics launcher. Of course the LG widgets won't run on the MoTo launcher but there are no MoTo widgets. Hopefully I can find parts around the net for both lauchers to be complete(high hopes). I will say its a def change from the standard cm ROM. Last battery only got about 10 hours with 3 hours screen on but I'm thinking all the youtube videos my daughter watched today played a big role in that, so after a full day of running no new bugs have popped up. And since this is gonna get atleast some usage I can have the mod lock/delete this soon and just start a dev thread for the ROM once I get it up

That already sounds VERY promising! I'd be happy to apply as an "Orkin Man" on the project for you if you need anyone. It looks to be a VERY different ROM from what any of us are used to seeing!

MAN! That's awful. I sure do hope it's not a mechanical issue with your slave drive otherwise there may be other issues looming on the horizon.
It sounds to me like you're juggling chainsaws right now.....even more than I realized. I don't know how you keep it all straight in your head! When I take on more than one project at a time it reaaally messes with me.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate yours and the other developers time & efforts that call the DS "home". And I also understand that even though you have a perfectionist living inside you, this is a very nice ROM even with the few issues that are haunting you. I guess I've just gotten used to using a few very easy workarounds to the point I hardly notice them anymore. When you decide to, this is going to be one that people like myself appreciate more than some others will. Being that, there really is a minority group of us that just likes the derivative ROMs generated from the CyanogenMod code really better than the "original" in most cases. Even though it's mostly just a launcher change in your mind....this is definately one of the ROMs. :good:

MAN! That's awful. I sure do hope it's not a mechanical issue with your slave drive otherwise there may be other issues looming on the horizon.
It sounds to me like you're juggling chainsaws right now.....even more than I realized. I don't know how you keep it all straight in your head! When I take on more than one project at a time it reaaally messes with me.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate yours and the other developers time & efforts that call the DS "home". And I also understand that even though you have a perfectionist living inside you, this is a very nice ROM even with the few issues that are haunting you.

Well in that case..... I got some cabinets to hang today, and measure to downsize a Window and once that's done I'll upload.......
And the bigger issues I can see coming faster than I could have imaged. I have a windows hd now thanks to you. And it will boot up just fine with the slave attached, but Linux will no longer boot with thee slave attached, it actually freezes because I have to hit esc to enter my boot menu to choose what drive to boot :banghead:

I'm glad to hear that! And very soon there will be lots of us that will be glad too. I run it on a pretty regular basis myself simply because the things I use regularly do work so well. Besides, over the past couple of months we've had several programmers with varying degrees of abilities move in here with us that I can forsee them wanting to see if they can figure out those very few issues that you really just don't have the time to right now. That is, if you don't mind. We DO have a very healthy community attitude here for the DS ya know.
I wish I knew something to tell you about your slave drive issue though. Would physically setting it to "drive select" instead of "slave" with the jumpers have any affect on it?
I knew this summer was going to be a hit for the Doubleshot, but it seems all dev action has ceased since then.
Anyone know what's been going on with our device lately?
Just a BS thread to discuss our device. Devs feel free to chime in.
Or if you're secretly working on something and would like to tease us by letting us know what's coming, by all means...
Just remember to include an ETA

I know Strapped365 is working on a rom with the LG launcher. I'm sure he will post something on it in a few days when he's done and has time.

Well it still has some issues. The major one is not going to deepsleep. Then the force close from portrait to landscape and back again. I'm racking my brain trying to figure it out though because I've gotten way more Widgets from LG added

I am currently but slowly lol! Learning and trying to port TWRP recovery in our device since 4ext for our device has still a long way.

I still don't have a development box to start developing so that first before the WIP since I would need to pull the whole CM build and compile it just to make this recovery. I don't think my good old vps is enough to do this kind of job and I'm not also considering to reformat my windows PC just for this.
I think it has been a pretty good summer for development on our MT4GS. We've got a nice crop of ICS roms to choose from, either AOSP or CM or several Sense flavors. It's a smorgasbord! :highfive:

Well Sun_Dream has worked on our phone with a bit of Sense roms if you dig that.
"HTC Doublshot ICS Bliss" sporting Sense 3.6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896643
and
"Doubleshot Android 4.0.4 Sense4.1+4A Base Ville_U_ICS_40_S_2.31.401.5": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832805
Both seem solid, didn't quite test them out as I'm digging XMC's Jellybean.
Should be a lot of development when Sense 4.5 comes out though I sense ports coming.

Still won't be that helpful to me since we got a crappy internet in our country. Pulling a whole CM build would take me like almost a day of non stop downloading to do that
Unlike on a vps I could just pull both cm7 & cm9 in 30minutes

Ok so where I'm at now. I have figured out I didn't need to use anything from the EVO Shift to get this LG launcher up and running. So its not a port anymore ( so it lost andromaus settings which were cool but caused wakelocks ), its more so a launcher replacement, all other cm9 functions work like they should. So right now I'm trying to figure out how to post it, and here are my posting options I can either
1. Just package all the launcher and widgets as a flash over for any CLEAN INSTALL OF AOSP/AOKP ( will need testers for AOKP ). And a certain set of gapps so the gallery don't get broken
Or
2. I can just pre package everything into a CM build ( gapps and all ) so nothing gets broken. Its your call here is a couple screen shots. And if anyone wants to give it a try just pm me ill get you a dropbox link

I don't know about other people, but personally I'd go with option 2. You will have a lot less bugs to deal with and give yourself more time to focus on improving it and adding features. I don't know what you think about that but that's what I'd go with

This is a relaunch of MrCoolHand's SpeedyMyTouch Port from 19 May 2011. Its been a lot of fun switching things up. There are 4 Options for DL. Two are Manly and two are for the ladies. (What that means is that the two that are for the ladies have a lot of pink high lights through out the ROM and the other two don't.) There is a NON a2sd version of each and an a2sd version. Please have a properly partitioned sd card if you choose an a2sd version. Otherwise it wont work. If you don't know what I am referring to, please flash a NON a2sd version.
This is for anyone who may just want something a little different. Have fun and enjoy.
ROM Features:
Deodex
SuperSU
Seeder 2.0.0
Strapped365's Supreme Sense Kernel
T-Mobile Faves apk
myModes
YouMail voice mail app
Sevastopol's Sense 4 Clock and Weather widget
And a few more things.
Disclaimer: Flash at your own risk!
*It is important to note that there may be additional issues I don't know about and as I am a truck driver, not a programmer I may or may not be able to fix things.
Everyone is encouraged to do what ever you like with anything I post.
Thanks:
Megeghostgamer for bringing this ROM to my attention
Strapped365 for his awesome kernel
MrCoolHand for his original work and for letting me do this.
dsixda for his amazing kitchen
mendozinas for the UOT Kitchen
Problems:
Bluetooth doesn't work.
No 4G.
Instructions:
Basically:
DL to pc and move to the root of sd card
Do a full wipe
Flash
Enjoy
Please note that this ROM takes a while to load (up to 5 minutes) so be patient and let it settle. Thanks.
Also, the a2sd version is set up so that the apps are already on the SD partition at first boot. That's why it takes so long the first time.
Please make sure you have a properly partitioned SD card before flashing this version or it will have problems.

it looks good. ill prolly flash to play with it later or tomorrow just to see it. thanks for your work.
If I recall correctly there was also a headphone issue with this ROM orginally. I actually enjoyed this ROM as well back in the day but that specific issue kind of ruined the daily driver possibility for me, I use my phone like an ipod in my car so audio out is very important to me. Not sure if you fixed it or was unaware of that issue, so thought I would mention it. Glad to see further work on it I always liked it.

I didn't know about that issue nor did I think to test it. I've flashed back to my dd for the day because I need bluetooth for my job but I can check that out a little later.

It's going to take some getting used to. I have always just used Windows in the past.
Edit: By the way, I can't remember where I saw someone asking about dual booting but this http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=PvP_4J2MUEc&desktop_uri=/watch?v=PvP_4J2MUEc is how I set mine up and I can go easily back and forth between Ubuntu and Windows 7.
