Hello Everybody,
Many of you must be familiar with Ubuntu Mobile, Ubuntu's latest project in the field of mobiles. Now the question is- Is Ubuntu supported on HTC HD2?
The Answer to the question is- Yes. As explained in the Linked video(See Below) by UBUNTU Co-founder, Ubuntu works on all the devices which can run Android. If you're not sure what I am saying, please see the video, seek it to 20:49 if you don't want to watch the whole video. It is based on Android Kernel only.
See the video here- http://youtu.be/cpWHJDLsqTU

I am here with a new challenge, and that is the Porting Of Ubuntu Mobile. I hope you all are ready for it! :good:
I will be waiting for a Native SD Release!
Many of you might be thinking what is this thing doing in Android Section, the answer to your question is as its kernel is same with that of Ubuntu, you guys have the best chances of porting Ubuntu Mobile into HD2.
Your help will be appreciated.

Even though it might use the android kernel it belongs in ubuntu section.
P.s. The android kernel and ubuntu kernel are built from the same source anyway
曾经尝试过Ubuntu核心，非常好，十分期待Ubuntu的SD ROM
Native SD 个人感觉好像是掩耳盗铃
Is there any developer working on ubunto mobile for hd2?

Hi guys i have been trying to know about android driver development.. i know driver development is not an easy job but i'd like to learn.. Is there any tutorials for that or any simple examples??
[Q] How to write drivers for Android
Ashok,
Writing android drivers is no different then writing drivers for linux. In fact many linux drivers would simply just work on the android.
Here is a little reading list for you if you want to find out more about linux driver development:

Hope this helps
thanks for the tutorials and the book suggestions I appreciate the help.
If you are familiar with Linux kernel and Linux based development then it will not that tough for you since Android uses modified version of Linux kernel. For tutorial source for Android kernel go to:

Hello, sorry for raising the dead, but this topic is rare.
I have a project where I basically need to write a mouse cursor driver. Would you have any specific information on how the mouse is actually drawn on the system level, as in between activities/programs/windows/etc. ? And would it be possible to include this as part of an app, so that it can be downloaded by an average user? (not as vital)

Hello guys, before the question, i am sorry if i am little english. i look some website that running Ubuntu on Android Device.
I am sorry i am new user in this site, so i can't using outside links in this posting, but you will find if you search on google about this.
i have some question about this case:
1. i am using Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 4.0 a.k.a Samsung YP-G1CW/XSE what ubuntu can running on my device?
2. How with OS Windows? what windows can running on my Device? Windows XP may be, or Windows 7..
Please Help me, i need to running other OS on my Android Device.. Thank's Before for your answer
There are two ways to run another OS on your device: chroot and qemu. You can run Ubuntu (or any Linux distribution that supports ARM processors) with little effort using the chroot method. Look up "Ubuntu installer free" in the store and it will walk you through. It may not work on the stock kernel, so make sure you have the kernel from these forums that fits your device.
The only way to run an OS like Windows is by virtualization through qemu, because it doesn't natively support the chip in your Galaxy S Wifi. This method requires a version of qemu compiled for ARM and additional libraries, which I have not gotten to work successfully on this device. (Anyone else?)
So I'd suggest just trying to get Ubuntu running. It won't be very fast or easy to use on a device that small, but it will work.

Hi,
i've buy an Ramos tablet lately. It's the WD30HD model, and as onlne review, it support Android Jellybean 4.1.2 and Ubuntu 12.0. This tablet starts with Android ICS 4.0.4, but it has some bugs. My question is about the possibility to install Ubuntu on it, there is some guide helpfully for me? Today i try to became root, on it, because i think this is the mandatory first step, but what is the following?

Thanks in advance for your willingness. :good:
This forum is for the new OS that Canonical has made called, Ubuntu for Phones. This forum is NOT for help on installing Ubuntu or other linux distros on Android.

Ubuntu for the PC and Windows can be installed on almost any PC provided it has the compatible hardware. Is it possible to create a Ubuntu touch ROM that can be installed on any phone with the right hardware? I always wondered why this hasn't been attempted or done.

Ubuntu Touch is precisely that. A single unified image that with a couple of prerequisites relative to 'YOUR' device. Its not possible to just create a single flashable .zip of Ubuntu because of all the Android libs being used, it needs CM10 as a base but each device has different base code.
I thought Ubuntu touch was it's own operating system, I didn't know it relied on android for it to run a on mobile device that isn't specifically made for it.

Ubuntu Touch is a new operating system. But in the current state it uses Android libs to make porting easier. An Ubuntu Touch device won't use those libs.
It will be like this once manufacturers start building ubuntu "certified" or "compatible" devices, but regarding the devices in the market right now it's technically not possible
