Make sure you PM a mod. :D

And that is actually a good idea. Link this thread to the bounty and say if you want to say something about the bounty go here.

And if we have the Android Market stuffed in WebOS, It would be a serious competitor if actually had that market at the start (even though it couldn't)

Could someone tell me what the difficullities are with porting WebOS to android? I thought they shared the same code like firefox os...

This would be awesome. But I figure I would get bored after a day since there really isn't much support as far as apps go. I loved webos.

I've got the environment setup, building now, and will start port...time and knowledge willing.

problems I for see right now.

0 info around for porting webos to new hardware..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tokuzumi:
webOS would be fun to play around with. But, since a lot of apps are no longer supported by their creators, it may just be a "look, I loaded webOS. I can only make calls/texts/data, but no apps, since none are available."

I would love to see this get ported to the GNex, though. Especially if a dual boot option were available. Then, there would be almost no reason to not try it. If you didn't like it, just select your Android rom.

Hopefully, the Gecko OS can be fully ported to our phone, too.

That's what I miss about the Nexus One. It had everything loaded on it. Every sense rom known to man (easy, since it was nearly identical to the Evo 4G/Droid Incredible). All kinds of other custom Android builds. The Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus haven't had the same variety. Not from devs not trying...it's just most difficult, since the drivers need to be built from scratch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
most webos devices didnt have many buttons besides the keyboard, and the Touchpad has only 3 physical buttons and most UI interaction is gesture based in WebOS so no need to worry about soft keys
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] runandhide05:

That GitHub page has full instructions on the main repo page to build the full webOS image, or just certain packages. Of course that doesn't help adding a new device tree kernel to it. But its the start.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] runandhide05:
ya i guess u didnt see I already stated I had it already downloaded and built , which means obviously I know about the git page and I already have both arm and x86 images built.

not dealing with a noob here, the problem is 0 info on where the mcf pulls the device configs from like android source pulls from /device and any proprietary stuff from /vendor

Wouldn't it be far better to port the UI but keep the Android base? Perhaps a fully functional theme/addon to mimic it...

Thats only good in concept. Not so much in actuality

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infazzdar:
If all you want is a theme, we already have many of the icons and elements, but we're talking about a whole port.

It would give us an opportunity to try another OS on our hardware. Given a working port we could take many more parts from WebOS and make our own Android better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrmylanman:
Yeah I really liked WebOS on my pre but the hardware wasn't so good. It would be nice to see it come here!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AshtonTS:
I really hope we can see this on our devices someday, it would be so nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shahrukhraza:
My the op could pm some more devs if they are interested... some of them might not know because they stay in the development side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyhook:
Ok, I'll bite. If it is fully ported, what is the app support like? Is there much available or would we just have an OS and nothing to run on it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FC1032:
Webos on my touchpad didn't have much apps. Facebook... angry birds, a few games and a few news reading app. I recall it didn't even have a YouTube app. But the quality of the (official) apps were quite good.

Not sure if the apps on the phone will be more and better
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donsh00tmesanta:
IMO apps didn't make a certain device better or worse quality over quantity look at iOS 500k but Bout 80% are junk

Before I get flamed - I already searched and googled for the YouTube apk that used to be in paranoid android ROM.

Or honeycomb where the app was actually like a 360 degree wall when scrolling thru video search

Does anybody know or have a link to that apk. ?

ThanXx in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that there's no separate app for tablet-style YouTube. I think the app changes its look as the dpi changes. That's how Paranoid Android changes the UI between phone and tablet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaestreetss:
I know but I had the app on my nexus a few months ago b4 I lost it. I forgot to upload it to my dropbox I had it extracted from the 1st build of p.a. ROM now I can't find it. Also I heard it was originally from the honeycomb YouTube.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
If you have extracted it before, why don't you do it again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyhook:
There isn't a separate tablet app, PA just shows that layout (both the phone and tablet UI is built into the youtube app)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clintkev251:
it all has to do with dpi settings, if you were to change the dpi that the current youtube app behaves as, it would look the same (or similar) to how it used to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
Well.. just a thought probably won't work.

Why not set all the DPI settings the way they should and then copy the app. Install on a different ROM and see if it works. In my mind I'm thinking it will save the DPI settings in the app.

Good: Most functionality from x86 remain. Verge said no WMP in desktop, only in Metro. And no legacy apps, of course. Office RT Preview looks good (given that it's free), albeit you'll need a KB/mouse setup. Looks just like Win8 all-around.

Bad: No accelerometer?! Well, at least the Surface RT has it.

[YOUTUBE]Ur185N03pes[/YOUTUBE]
[Windows 8 General] phailyoor:
There's a chance. That slim possibility of running cross-compiled desktop apps..... Maybe, just maybe.
[Windows 8 General] TravisAntonio:
So... desktop view works on RT, this is a go :)

Now I will really be buying the Surface, also you can put the Surface in 0 and 90 grades angles in the dock so it makes it even better.
[Windows 8 General] e.mote:
Another brief tour of WinRT, this time going through Word 2013 Preview. But more noteworthy is that windowing function in desktop mode is still the same as ever (1:25 mark), ie you can move/resize/overlap windows to any degree.

The main takeway is that WinRT is basically same as Win8 x86 w/o the legacy apps, in exchange for a lower price and free Office. (I hope MS shrinks the footprint, and dumps WinSxS.) The second takeway is that despite all the Metro hubbub, if you want to get real work done, it still takes a mouse & keyboard.

Am hoping sideloading will be achieved quickly, and that 3rd-parties will support desktop mode with cross-compiled apps as phail pal said.

Oh yah and hoping MS goes ahead with that $199 Surface RT!

[YOUTUBE]crYWnrwg4kI[/YOUTUBE]
[Windows 8 General] TravisAntonio:
My.. there it is! the desktop! and FILES! LOL. :D I like this, I wish I can be at USA when it goes out to make the line with others to buy it, but I will have to tell somebody to buy me one and send it to DR :( crap!..
[Windows 8 General] Chillingly Based:
There will be an accelerometer. That is a requirement of windows RT

I'm kind of surprised he wasted an opportunity with Windows RT in the desktop. There so many questions regarding metro performance and resource footprint that he could have addressed.
[Windows 8 General] e.mote:
Some more looks at WinRT desktop (and tech stuff).

Storage & OS footprint: On this 32GB device, only 24GB is showing as available as a single C: drive, with 12GB of that used and 12GB remaining (2:02 mark). From this, I'm assuming the OS is stashed in a 8GB reserved partition, and the 12GB used is from Office and possible swap file. Total footprint: 20GB for WinRT + Office. On a 32GB device, that is a huge footprint and needs to be slimmed down much further.

MS Office 2013 has a touch mode that's disabled by default (why?). Enabling it means menu options are spaced further apart from each other, allowing for more surface area for touch input.

[YOUTUBE]GOyOqzLKRKg[/YOUTUBE]

Another Verge vid shows that most of Win8's built-in apps & functions (except WordPad and WMP) are present in WinRT. Also, a look-see at Dev Mgr, showing the same WDDM 1.2 drivers as in Win8. Some of the driver dates are from 2006, which imply the drivers have not been reworked at all, but were simply recompiled (1:50 mark). This is certainly good news for porting to ARM.

[YOUTUBE]4D06Lb0W37w[/YOUTUBE]

All these indicate a work-in-progress for RT. One worry is that MS, in its push to standardize on Metro, will take measures to lock out the desktop. We'll see how it goes, but the above is a good step toward assuring users that RT won't be just a dumbed-down Windows.

The ZDNet article talking about these two videos is here, and contain a few more insights.

[Windows 8 General] Greywolf_Ghost:
This will only apply for about the first week.

Once the people who make software start to build for Windows 8, most apps like for example VLC and so on upload to the app store, most apps will cross compile in the cloud.

That was stated at the launch event.

So it means something like VLC could hit Windows 8 x86/RT/ and Windows Phone 8.

In under 6 months I can see having about 90% of the use of a full PC on RT.

I could find that handy to have an arm based Win Tab, with a dumb version of Photoshop to edit a picture on the fly, hot spot my phone and upload on the go.

My dream is a Nokia Tablet (MS Surface as 2nd pick), my HTC Radar ( with 7.8), and my Canon Digi, all able to fit in my Motor bike Case.
[Windows 8 General] phailyoor:
Well, it's not been confirmed whether there will be desktop development allowed on Windows RT devices. If it is allowed, then I totally agree with you. We'll see a deluge of desktop apps recompiled to target ARM desktop. If it is not allowed(most likely) then Windows RT devices are worthless.
[Windows 8 General] nbates66:
I dont think they intend At this point to Allow desktop apps in windows rt, however apparently a large amount of the windows 8 rt (metro) apps will be cross platform, working on both arm and x86
[Windows 8 General] TravisAntonio:
There will be, just wait until Windows RT is out, and give it 2 weeks or so.
[Windows 8 General] Greywolf_Ghost:
It was made very clear, at both the Surface launch, and again at WP8 launch, because of the shared bits and common code that apps will cross platform.

If I am not mistaken the statement was " build once and compile for all"

The developer tools will cover all 3 platforms in 1 program.

It also means because of the common code, if the builders of apps for iphone and android want to add users they can use almost the same code.

So the things you like on your PC, once built for Metro will show up on all 3 platforms, or just the PC and RT.

I truly think this is the call of the developer and not MS. As the developer will pick what platform to compile for.

So in time you will see Firefox, Chrome....PJ64, Nes.....Photoshop,Video Edit...multi format media player like VLC or Real Player.

It is just up to someone out on the internet to click the button and send the uplaod.

If your unsure, go back and watch the Surface launch, I am sure it is said a few times.
