I already know that we can install it on flo and even use multiROM in TWRP feature to have both android and ubuntu. but there is nothing mentioned if this works on deb. is there any way to dualboot ubuntu touch on deb?

There does not seem to be any plans for official support for deb, OFFICIAL SUPPORT, I have looked around a bit and there are some unofficial ports but there is more not working with deb than with flo. I expect to see something, just does not look like it will be soon.

Could there be a Ubuntu Touch port for Nook Tablet 8 or 16gb? I'm willing to test it if anyone planing to build.

The Adam Outler Re Flash Method uses ubuntu as a recovery program. But if you remove the recovery file from the SD card then it becomes a version of "Ubuntu Touch"
Porting Ubuntu Touch is similar to building CM10.1, so expect it to come around sometime. I personally will wait for the release version, as the current preview build is mostly non-functional except for perhaps the browser.

Then again, with a base ported over, taking drivers from the recovery, it would be simple to port the official...since the kernel is almost locked in!
IDK about you...but I'm going to make some tries at a port

[Q] Nexus 5 Special Dual Booting. Details Below.

Hi guys, so soon my cousin will be getting himself a nexus 5 and he asked me for help. I'm looking for a way to dual boot CM11/PA/Stock with Kali PwnPhone Community Edition. Now I know that multiROM exists but since that it isn't the process of a regular ROM flashing, I thought it might not work (might work too, that's why I am here for help). So I wanted to know of that will work and if it won't is there any other option, maybe with Ubuntu touch dual boot installer? So that's it hope I explained the situation well and thanks for helpers.

According to this: https://rstforums.com/forum/86853-build-your-own-kali-linux-pwnphone-pwnpad.rst Multirom supports this mod. Don't have any experience with it myself, but have multi booted quite a few phones including CM, FF OS, and Ubuntu Touch on the N5.
Just A Clarification.

So what I have to do, is:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Flash CM11 ROM (zip file)
4. Download MultiRom Manager and install MultiRom
And then, what?
The installation process of the PwnPhone FW is different that the guide says. Instruction in attached PDF.
So how do I combine this process with multirom? Maybe have a cm11 primary ROM and stock secondary ROM (which I also don't know how to do) and do the process on the secondary? Thanks for helpers.

Firefox OS or Ubuntu Touch Port ?

Was Wondering as We got All Sources and a Good Development
Why not Somebody Port Ubuntu Touch or Firefox OS
as Both the Operating Systems Sources are Available
I Myself might have done it But I'm Out of FUP ;_;

Ubuntu touch its an good idea
This is a great idea and I'd love to see Ubuntu touch and get my hands on it
I tried sailfish os to port but it fails because the cm12.1 sorce code is not fully available and this makes it difficult for ubuntu you need cm10 or 11 resources , therefore it is almost impossible
but not perhaps maybe even
Maybe it east for me too much paperwork
Actually, Ubuntu touch is great idea though. But it's complex cuz it's need older android source code like jelly bean and kitkat source. Which mean it's impossible I think (my friend said that)
PS: Firefox OS has been dead last year.
View attachment 3872464 View attachment 3872465I again sat down at my Sailfish os port and have fixed some errors and comical he it at build without breaking what was always my problem one can hope maybe it will work

Does anyone know how To Upgrade Ubuntu Touch 1404 To 1604 ?

Hello everyone,
First of all, sorry for my poor english.
I have a phablet which installed ubuntu touch 14.04(another person did this work 2 years ago, he modified the kerner, uboot, and so on, but he has left already, and I don't know what he actually did), and now I want to upgrade it to ubuntu touch 16.04, Does anyone know how to achieve this goal?
I flashed the original kernel, ramdisk.img, initrd.img and recovery.img to the device and the phablet can boot to recovery mode. and then , I download the new xenial-preinstalled-touch-armhf.tar.gz from cdimage.ubuntu.com, tpying: ./rootstock-touch-install xenial-preinstalled-touch-armhf.tar.gz system.img, but it doesn't work, Do I need to rebuild all the stuff ? Or just replace the Ubuntu root file system like rootstock-touch-install did?
Thank you in advance !
Ubuntu Touch is not yet ready for 16.04 or 16.10. Rootstock is also no longer supported IIRC. What phablet do you have? If it's supported by canonical, you can easily install 15.04 using the ubuntu-device-flash command.
You can get more information regarding Ubuntu Touch from visiting the Google Plus "Ubuntu Touch" community, or the ubuntu-phone mailing list.

Hi, ShadowEO, Thank you very much!
My phablet is not supported by canonical, so ubuntu-device-flash didn't work too, I will try to find more information from the community or mailing list as you said, Thanks again !

Ub ports(ubuntu touch port) GSI for realme xt

Can someone manage to build a ubuntu touch rom for our xt
And now ,GSI UB ports is also available
I didn't understood about the "halium kernel patch"
So please can someone port ubuntu
Kernel just needs the correct merges/patches to boot the GSI. I agree I'd love to play around with this a bit.
So, there's no interest in this it seems? That's to bad, especially for people who don't bother using Gapps

There are what I'd consider detailed guides, but I'm no Dev. I was just reading up on Halium porting because I'd love to at least give Ubuntu Touch a test run before biting the bullet and buying the Pine Phone.
Is it possible to use Ubuntu touch as a daily driver if you don't have one of those pixel phones that are supported?
