Ubuntu has been released for android. Will our devices be able to run it? If so, will it run well?
Sent from my Desire S using xda app-developers app
I get the feeling it won't work too well if it works at all.
I'm placing emphasis on dual-core on the website below.

What about apps?

Almost certainly not. Can you install them on Ubuntu on your desktop?

No they cannot but they should be easily portable since android and Ubuntu for android use the same kernel.

Kernel - yes (sort of)
Framework (the thing apps rely on to work - no

This thread is surely aimed at Ubuntu Phone, not Ubuntu for Android, no?

I'd like to see this ported to DS, especially as my contract runs out soon!

I belive that it will be realised
So, if some kind soul ports it (We are actually talking about Ubuntu phone, but not Ubuntu for android right?)
would it pop up on the android development forum?
Ubuntu
How big is this Ubuntu and more important could a sort of dual boot setup be created like on a PCM so the android os could be primary and perhaps Ubuntu could be on a partition on the flash card.
I got a 64gb sd card class 10 so I'm looking for ways of using my space creatively

So I'm thinking about switching to Ubuntu completely from Windows 7.
Will Odin3 One-Click and Galaxy S One-Click Root/Unroot work in Ubuntu if I use Wine, or should I set up a Windows VM in Ubuntu?
Once again, thanks in advance!
I would just use heimdall.
Thanks! I'm definitely going to give it a try!
Yea I use ubuntu only and I use heimdall. It works great. If you are using a 32 bit version of ubuntu, you will have to compile heimdall yourself to make it work. The creator has step by step instructions how to do that inside of the source folder you will have to download. It is very easy to do.

Switching to open source programs and OS's is inevitable. Please stop supporting the evil companies as M$ and App£e. Thanks for the heimdall suggestion I never heard of it before.

I want to start creating ROM's and need a Linux based OS so I'm downloading Ubuntu 12.04. Is this OS a good one to use, or should I have downloaded an older version?
I'm a complete n00b in Android developing, so I'm currently in the process of reading FAQ's and guides on here and Google.

hi, 12.04 is relatively new and has compatability issues regards compiling (did for me), I used 11.10 for cm7/9 if you wish to compile aosp ics/jb then use 10.04.4 (lucid) 64bit this is used by android aosp team to compile, you should have no problems with it, providing the build environment is setup correctly
Where can I get v10 or 11 from? I've downloaded and installed 12.04 but couldn't find the others.

You could do what a lot of others have done and mount a img and chroot into it. while it's not booting into ubuntu you can do most of what you want. I know in the nook color forums(might be a few pages back) there should be a example that should work on our phones.
Its possible but I doubt there's any development on our phones. I know the Asus transformer tf101 has a few projects going on

The thing about windows phones is they run on Intel Cores, they are ment for windows and only Windows i have Seen some Threads That You are able to get Android 2.0-2.1 on a windows phone i dont even know how this was possible but im sure it might have been fake or Was very Slow and still in Beta. but this was for Some Specific Samsung Windows 7Phones so you much get lucky if they put somore Devolopement into it.(also if you were able to get android on it, it would Require Dual Boot. sooo windows and android will be on it.
So it have to be windows in my HTC... Thx...
