Hello.
I'm new to Ubuntu Touch. I didn't even know it existed until a few months ago.
I have a Galaxy J7 Sky Pro, Android of course, and I am wondering what it would take for me to wipe it and load Ubuntu Touch onto it?
It is running Android 6.0.1.
I know this is kind of a crazy question probably, but I think it might be a neat project to toy around with.
Thank you!

Greetings nerds, proud geeks, smart pc-freaks and talented tinkers,
i guess my question is pretty easy to answer for all of you ^^;
but a friend of mine told me about dxa so.... i will try to give it a shot.
i already browsed the forum for a answer... but sadly couldn't find one.
so a link to "the site the girl can't find" would also be great ^^;
buuuut my question:
i got a sony Z5 compact and want to use my old samsung galaxy gear (first gen i guess ^^).
buuuuut i don't want to use the galaxy gear os from samsung.
is it possible to use android wear on this device?
i was browsing trough the forum and only found roms about lolipop and kitkat... or is this "andriod wear" as well?
i thougth this is a seperate os for gears...
my first try (i guess pretty stupid) simply downloading the app android wear and was trying to connect it with my z5... sadly it always says: updating... but don't move on...
so i guess i need to install another rom on the galaxy gear?
is this necessary? possible? and when yes how? ^^;
thanks in advance :3
love
acy <3
It is currently not possible to use android wear on the Samsung Galaxy first gen. Someone has been trying to develop it and is still trying to work out all the bugs. Which is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ip-android-wear-lollipop-galaxy-gear-t3341116
(This above is an incomplete OS) (It is still a work in progress)
If you want to use your gear with your Z5, try using this guide and installing all the apk files inside the zip and see if it works:

Hi guys, just purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8 inch (SM-T713). It’s been a while since I had a android tablet so I can’t remember the steps I need to do to root etc. I’ll figure it out. What I am struggling to find is any info on a nice clean stock rom similar to that found on Google’s own android devices. Anyone any ideas? Does any exist?
Hi,
I'm looking into moving to Maru OS, I already use Samsung Dex very often but I would like to go to someting closer to Linux. I can't find any information on the subject, did somebody already tried to make it work ans mos important what doesn't works?

My first smartphone was a Windows Mobile. I got my hands on an android phone very late. But it was actually fortunate as the information about how, do and don't was readily available then. After I started to use my android phone I quickly came to know about XDA because I was very much interested in trying custom ROM (stock based) than MIUI. But I was glad I bought this particular model (mido). It's been 4 years since then but I still have my first android phone up and running smoothly powered by LOS 18.1.
I am thankful for the hard work that all the developers put in bringing so much to masses for free.

Yeah those amazing WM times!, I still have my HTC Universal working!.
Glad to aquaintance an old timer!
I am a musician from Germany, have been all Sailfish for years. That phone broke just months, before I'll get my new one, so I bought a used galaxy s8. For the first time I was on a branded phone, before the Sailfish device it were Nokia devices (N8 with Symbian and Lumina 1020 on WP).
Horrified, how many things Google asked me about and Samsung and so on, I trie to find a solution for this device. It will be my sons first own smartphone, so I want to prepare it to be reasonable "degoogled". On the other hand, he mostly likes camera-features, so I'll stick to modified stock-rom.
This is a worthwhile learning experience for me, because next I'll get a PlanetComputers Astro. Wich is a dual boot device with nice keyboard wich will mostly run on Android. So I hope to get used to the Android world before my next phone comes.
So I'll be not much of help, but I am great in asking stupid questions...
See you.
