some ad shots A version of the code will shortly be made available to developers to start adapting their apps. The firm then plans to release a file for Galaxy Nexus phones by February, and later for other handsets and ultimately tablet computers as well. Any new phone built for Android with at least a dual Cortex-A9 cores, a gig of RAM and 800 x 400 resolution could run this OS, should a manufacturer see merit in installing Ubuntu instead, and high spec 720p, quad-core phones should do wonders with it.

Re: Meet Ubuntu Phone Os. by 4llerbuntu(m): 10:13am On Jan 03, 2013 |
YES UBUNTU!! dont be surprised. Open source just fully joined the Mobile Game!!! "It's quite incredible that we're at this point when the power of the phone is crossing over that with baseline processing power of basic laptops," Mr Shuttleworth told the BBC. |

In case you are wondering why im so chuffed about this, the thing is: You cannot begin to imagine the level of Devv-ing and hacking that will occur on this platform, no you can't AOSP, CyanogenMod etc will be child's play compared with this. Every thing on this WILL be fully open source and available. Nothing like complaining that binaries/blobs are closed and un-available. I trust my guys, you will see performance at a whole new level on this. just wait for the first Binaries to be released in the next few weeks. im willing to bet that the galaxy Nexus images will be ported so quickly to other devices 1 Like |

4llerbuntu: In case you are wondering why im so chuffed about this, the thing is: bro, please be cautious, don't get too excited. You ever tried working on Maemo ? It was essentially the same concept. Linux based ('open source' ?) OS which allows you to hack to your fill. I invested so much of my time in exploring Maemo. Installed a debian image OS on the device. Ran desktop applications directly through my debian on the N900. I did a dual boot of android and Maemo, way before android devices became really popular . . . . And what did I get for all my effort ? The Maemo got discountinued . . . With that 'bitter experience' , I have become skeptical of 'wonderful' ideas that are yet to gain ground. So for now am sticking with android development. While following the Ubuntu idea (And all other innovation) from the corner of my eyes 1 Like |

Re: Meet Ubuntu Phone Os. by 4llerbuntu(m): 10:38am On Jan 03, 2013 |
pak: Apples and Oranges. 1. Maemo was a project practically left on its own. Nokia backed it a bit then betrayed us. This is backed by a committed Open Source Company. Microsoft got their mole into Nokia (Elop) and the rest is history If you have noticed, the really thriving Linux Distros i.e Ubuntu and Red Hat are backed by companies committed to open source and not just hobbyists and profit making companies. 2. This a a Full Mobile OS, not an attempt to cramp a desktop OS on to the phone like we were doing before. the desktop part comes with the UBUNTU FOR ANDROID project. and it is like two separate worlds existing side by side on the phone i get the skepticism, but one thing i can vouch for is that Canonical do not take things up and ditch it along the way. actually this is not new, the idea has been floated over 2 years ago. to see it come together is exhilarating. i guess my fellow ubuntu users are now beginning to see why Ubuntu went with the Unity desktop and those much maligned innovations like HUD. so, it will get supported well. believe me it will. and thankfully, no one will come and tell us this looks like IOS or any other mobile OS out there now. so it IS possible to innovate. Linux has always innovated anyway |

Kk.......the Ubuntu devs are feeling itchy and very over optimistic. Fingers crossed, lemme see(I Hope it doesn't) whether it won't go the way of Maemo. |

Re: Meet Ubuntu Phone Os. by 4llerbuntu(m): 10:47am On Jan 03, 2013 |
Shollypopz: He is not. perhaps you need to actually "try" ubuntu all u need is an internet connection. its is "easier" to use compared with even windows. try it, before you shaft it puskin: Kk.......the Ubuntu devs are feeling itchy and very over optimistic. This is NOT a general, "please back me", project like maemo. we have been doing this for years, despite of all the put downs, the talk about little mind share and user base etc etc etc. Ubuntu has kept on going and improving. why would you think this is going to get ditched? its not a company known for taking easy choices or routes. even on the desktop. did you follow the Unity deskop shall/Gnome/mint fiasco? a lesser company would have given up its vision. we play to win. Our Aim with this is to have a FULL CONVERGENCE of your IT Life. seamless convergence |
