goophone i5c - Ubuntu Touch Ports to Android

has anyone tried to port ubuntu touch on a goophone with a mtk 6572 and 1gb of ram?

its never going to happen. why you ask
well because i assume people bought a goophone to pretend they have an iphone? therefore i doubt most people would want to
also (i don't know much) but mtk don't release their kernels so can you port ubuntu to the phone without a kernel? probably not

Thanks, i did't know mtk is not releasing the kernel.
It's a pity,the phone has a good hardware

ICS porting

Oki guys. Here we have new thread about ICS.
Here you can find guide how to port ICS - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312595
I didn't test it, because I don't have skills for it. But here we have a lot of super users who know pretty much about it. So you can try it.
no success
after eoghan and despotovski01 tried it we won't get it ported from sdk due to the processor being armv6 and not 7. well have to wait for AOSP source codes.
BTW aosp means android open source project
Its annoying something so small can be such a big problem. One tiny difference pretty much the same instruction set and architecture one uses software to do some low level grunt work the other hardware. Why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will have to wait for a month or so for the source. Google promises the code to be out when Galaxy Nexus ships.
Cyanogen won't be porting ICS till source is out. Hopefully, CM9 will be ICS.
ugh see this mobile.pcmag.com/device2/article.php?CALL_URL=http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2395026,00.asp#fbid=Mk7YleZQ1Tj
Guys it would be very hard to build ICS for our device. It would require a very powerful computer and it would be harder than making any other previous Android build. Days ago I said I will do it with my brother as soon as the sources are released, but then I read an article about the specs needed for building ICS. On a quad-core AMD Phenom processor, it would take more than 5 hours to build ICS! And the recommended amount of RAM on a computer is 16GB! This is just too much for my dual-core Intel Core i5 laptop with 4GB of RAM.

Are you believing in this? I succesfully built Android 2.3.7 on my 512MB RAM - AMD Athlon XP 3000+ (0.13 um) @ 2GHz computer!

Yes I believe in it, because a guy from Google said that. I see no reason why I shouldn't believe it.

One more thing: I never said it won't be possible to build it on my laptop - I said it would take very long.
I have a AMD quadcore but not 16gb ram xD Besides, I dont know anything about porting...

come dude.. dream higher... i wish i were rich like bill gates... lol.
btw, goodluck for the porting. im gonna stick to gt540 until it broken or i lost it...
i have similar spec
Aspire 5820TG
core i5-480m (2.66GHz-2.93GHz)
4gb ram
looks like we need a custom built computer or ... NASA WE NEED YOUR COMPUTERS!!!!
i try build 2.3.xx , my PC is more than enough. PhenomII [email protected],36GHz+8G DDR3. I think that PC spec is only for really fast compiling... (not more than 1hour/compile complete system)
I have 64gb of ram and 8 cores. If you send sources to github I can build it for you. I don't have time to play with porting.

nice specs O.O
soo ics porting will be harder
than anyone expected it to be..

We have servers with 12cores and 96gb too so it's not the most powerful.

Ubuntu phone for O2X

Exciting news came today from Ubuntu that it's available (one, so far) for Android phone.
I just wondered how long it'll take or mighty devs to being it to our phone.
Please make it happen, thank you!

Thats not ubuntu phone, thats real ubuntu
Still, i'd be interested in ubuntu phone os as well.
The Gnex shall get the new os soon, we'll see if it is possible to port then.

Reading Ubuntu Mobile's technical requirements makes me feel less optimistic about seeing it fully implemented on our 2X due to its 512 MB of RAM and 5GB of internal storage. Our device barely meets their minimal requirements, so I wouldn't be too optimistic about it.
Time will tell, I guess. Hopefully, the community will prove me wrong and we'll see Ubuntu Mobile running nicely on a 2X in the upcoming months ^^

i think our o2x can handle it, remember we have many super genius developers here, 4-8gb of emmc? i think it's full of bloatware, and ubuntu surely release an OS that will match in 512mb and 5.5gb emmc, like the NEXUS devices
This is indeed quite exciting. Still, I don't really hold any high hope for our device since nvidia and lg are quite *****y about their blob drivers. For shame, really.

But I've read ubuntu phone can use the same drivers made for android, so I guess that wouldn't be a problem
I'm looking forward for this too! It looks awesome!

hope we will get some version to try
expecting fully working version for our phone would be asking too much but hopefully some dev can port a version later when sources are released to try out how it feels
I think it would be great to try Ubuntu on our phone, let's wait for our devs.
I think we'll have it eventually, lots of awesome devs for our phone :fingers-crossed:

All we can do is hope and wait. But sadly our phone is getting old...
LG is the one getting old.
Our phone keeps getting younger by the rom updates

it would be nice, to have ubuntu OS, hope the best, but we have to wait until ubuntu relase the first rom.
I saw the tech spec of ubuntu phone, and O2x
Ubuntu Phone OS needs:
1Ghz Cortex A9
512MB -1GB Ram
Flash storage 4-8 GB +SD
Multi-touch
O2x has
Tegra 250 AP20H (Ventana)
(1 GHz Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9)
512MB Ram
8GB flash storage +SD
Multi-touch
we have kernel modules for tegra2 processor
so hope, we get the rom for galaxy nexus, devs can do a rom for O2x, we have a chance
but this is for Entry level,
not for Desktop convergence
I also hope we can use the ubuntu roms soon.:laugh:

Ubuntu OS?

Hellol guys! Ubuntu for Phones has been announced and I was already wondering if we can get it running on Ace...
More info about Ubuntu OS look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2079198
Thanks!
It`s not fully working on galaxy nexus i mean it has some lag and on Ace it will lag as hell.so waot sometime till it`s officialy released by ubuntu guys and since they said ot can be on any android device don`t worry we`ll get it soon or later.

I think you got me wrong. I know Ubuntu on PC, I was talking about Ubuntu for phones (the phone OS, not the desktop OS port). Also I really hope we get a port of this, it would be awesome to test!

Miracle maybe? Isn't this what XDA is meant for? Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean can run on Galaxy Ace although it doesn't meet the minimum requirement.

I think you're not talking about Wayland's CM10.1. It is the fastest ROM I've ever tried, and overtakes by far the stock GB that Samsung gives to us. About Ubuntu OS, it was just curiosity... I think I'll be able to use it in a near future, I might get an Motorola Razr MAXX by March

[Q] Porting WP8 on different phones?

Hi
Windows is installed in many PCs with different hardware (CPU, graphic card and so on). How is it about mobile phones?
Is somebody interested in porting WP8 on N9?
thanks a lot

Ain't gonna happen my friend, mobiles are very specific as are their OSs installed, porting is high on impossible, and to my knowledge has only happened on the HD2 with any success, this was only possible because the hd2 was a test device for various platforms and its hardware very similar

Giving away android sticks for porting

I have some android sticks lying around for anyone that wants to use it to port omnirom to it. They currently have android 4.2 on them and I have all the source code from the manufacturer.
Its limited how many I have, but I imagine if you pm me I can help you.
A little bit about the hardware. Its a Chinese chipset and I doubt most people will probably be able to work with the source code as the company is in china and provides next to no documentation. Also, its based on the ns115 chipset which is a dual cpu/gpu. But if you want to mess with it, then I guess the universe is giving you a real good riddle.
