[request] Ubuntu Touch - LG Optimus 2x

Can anyone port the ubuntu touch on our phone? It's based on cm 10.1 so it should be possible I think. It has some bugs but it looks excellent.

Work is in progress. A bit of frustration today mainly due to multiple sync errors, slow sync speed from their server. Still syncing, since morning, lets hope it works

O2x has the best devs in the world, tnx to the link!

No. Won't work because of the different KGSL drivers (this is the only change anyway).
For what reason did you want to try this?
Till now pretty smooth and rock solid, hardly any fc's.
Only problem i found is the render glitch, which makes browsing and maps and gmail almost unuseable.
So if you need the features like cam and previous stated, i wouldnt recommend it. Remember its an alpha and not a beta or stable

Was interested to try this as I much rather prefer your own aosp Alpha 2.1,rather than the cyanogen mod port.Would be nice to get hw acceleration,but nvm.
Something I am very looking forward though is the 4.0 & sense 3.5 hybrid,especially when we consider we could de-sense it and still have stable,camera working Rom.

I've been using St.Matt's ICS Alpha build for a couple of weeks now and have enjoyed the ride so far.
With the latest release and the native HW acceleration, I am willing to forego the omission of a camera.
There is the rather annoying Browser rendering issue and a couple of glitches with the graphics sometimes but it works amazingly otherwise.

I think it works great it is smooth but there are some glitches. but having said that the glitches and not having the ability to use my 8mp dual flash camera..... lol, is not kind of a pain in the butt. so i will be waiting for htc to release the camera kernal so we can fix this bug and begin our journey onto the ICS platform.
This is just my person opinion some others may disagree and say that the camera bug is ok and they are willing to forgo this problem and use it anyways. Me not so much but like i said i am eagerly awaiting the fixes and cant wait to see what the amazing devs can conjure up in there magic pots lol.
hope this helped you.
I agree with the above... but it was nice to give it a test run. koodos dev team

playground and ice cold are the closest to it
find a fully working version of ICS for the IncS then we'll think about JellyBean.
ICS been out since last year, only until recently we've seen some better roms on xda, i'd give it till next yr for JellyBean if anyone is still developing for the IncS then.
This might make HTC release the source faster when they realize that they are updating to an old os

I think it's strange we dont have an official CM9 nightlies for our phone
there's loads of unpopular **** phones that have it ...
I'm guessing we're still struggling with hacking the proprietary camera and graphics drivers in our phone. The only 99% stable ICS roms i've found are the Sense 4.0 roms (and even those FC when trying to take pictures at max res). I much prefer AOSP, but it crashes too often when using graphics intensive applications.

Samsung galaxy tab 1 and 2 has official CM9 and both don't have ICS sources
the 7" tab1 is gingerbread oficially, but remarkably everything works in CM9
The 10.1 inch tab 2 (GT-P7100) is honeycomb and in CM9 the camera doesn't work
So your statement seems invalid ...
Am I the only one working on this, or does anyone want to join me on IRC? Dev help only, there won't be any test files or anything to flash, so there is no use saying "Yeah I'll come in!" if you just want a file to install, I need someone who can help with making the right edits to the init files, cause after 5 versions I can't get past the bootsplash.
guys,just to be patient, we all will get it.

Stable rom?

I'm looking for a good stable rom. I don't need the most features, stability and compatibility is more important. Currently I'm running fat and creamy, but I'm seeing a lot of graphical problems. A working camera would be a nice touch too.
Any suggestions?

I'm using jcsullins' cm10 preview and before that, the official CM9 nightlies. I recommend either of them.
Thanks I'm trying the latest cm9 nightly on gooim. Not sure if that is the same but it seems to be working good.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
I'd recommend cm10 preview. Been running it for a while and it runs great! Why use cm9 when you can take advantage of cm10 with no side effects?
Well the tablet is mainly for my kids and they likely won't notice the difference. I read something about having to repartition for jelly bean. Is this true with that rom?
On a side note, does anyone have a properly working camera. On the roms I've tried, it kind of works, but the image is stretched so badly it's basically worthless.

When you install cm10, use acmeinstaller3. Might as well do a completely clean install.
Run acmeuninstaller, then in webos and preware download and install 'remove android'.
There are several good how to's here and over at webos nation forum. You can install cm9 using acmeinstaller3.
I would use cm9 official nightly, since your kids will be using it. I recently changed from that to jcsullins' cm10 preview and it's running mostly fine.
The camera on the TP sucks anyway....... It works much better in webos, which is a good os. Tweaked, Imo, webos is the better of the 2, but its lack of apps compared to android kills it.
Feel free to pm if you need some more help.

Nothing is impossible..as you can see Samsung didn't cared to release updates after GB..but our mighty development staff..provided us with ICS n JB..that too running better than Samsung's GB..
Ubuntu OS ,currently only for Nexus Devices..official launch in October 2013..so wait for sources to leak..then development will begin..

This thing isn't even remotely as easy as ICS/JB was. The system image itself is huge and the os is a ram hog so unless someone finds a way to optimize the way it uses resources and such, no way

Why is it so resource heavy? Is there a specific area it needs it for? It strikes me as a relatively simple OS.

Google and checkout for the video of the Ubuntu OS as explained in the ces 2013 on YouTube. With so much to offer, you can't really expect it to be light enough to run on our phones. It will take up a lot of ram obviously. Besides, Ubuntu for ace ?! :what: We're just building castles in mid-air if we think that it's happening any time soon.

I presume that there is a lot of background duties going on which clogs the RAM.

Why not Ubuntu for Ace?
Ace already have a half working CM10.1 (4.2.2). Who would have thought it would work in the galaxy ace...
Ubuntu I guess it should be the same, slow, and half things working. But it would still work.

Ubuntu doesn't support armv6 so that's the first problem also every single app that I'd on there would have to be ported and every future app will also have to be ported also with regards to the cm 10.1 port the device needs a proper cm port in order for it to count look at it like this
Galaxy s2 - stable cm10.1 horribly laggy crashy Ubuntu (it's a dev preview but still)
Galaxy ace horrible laggy crashy cm10.1.+ armv6 architecture- lucky if it boots up
I'm not gonna go so far as to say it won't happen but you would have to find a dev crazy enough to try porting it and even if he/she (don't wanna be sexist) defys all odds and makes it the same speed as on nexus devices (I.e horribly laggy) it would still have guaranteed very limited usability because of Ubuntu's lack of armv6 support

We don't have great device
And Ubuntu Touch is not yet released in daily driver form for any device. It's like alpha or beta.
Agreed with nishanty13 and ast00.
We don't have a great spec devices (c'mon, ARMV6 Processor, LDPI screen, 600 Mhz processor ? You gotta' be kidding me) and Ubuntu touch isn't stable yet. It still hanging around on Alpha stage.
Ubuntu Touch is just "preview", nothing works except browser. There isn't any real application on it, cannot do anything, it likes a set of screenshots of real OS.
*I know because I've tried installing and using it, but it has nothing to use *

Yeah, agreed with you. I already installed it in my Nexus, but yeah, nothing is great. It's hard porting a full blown desktop experience to a phone. Also, our Mini isn't great at all, you can't just go beyond limit, our Mini is a ARMV6 powered phone with 256 MB RAM, what's so great that you want fully blown Ubuntu Touch ?
No offence but i disagree with idea of porting it.
Honestly....porting is not impossible but really is it even worth it....

I don't think it's wort it...only if you have a SIII or SIV maybe but on a device such as our mini i would wish that cm10.1 to become stable and official that wold be more than enough for me
i don't think it would have any interrest right now
