Download any ROM for your device.

Reboot in CWM (CWM is still there).

Under mounts and storage, mount the external SD card.

Plug into PC

Load the ROM onto the SD card.

Unplug, install the ROM.

I am on ICS build for my Xperia S that shifted with manufacturor. I am looking for flashing CM based ROM from FreeXperia project. I have checked the forum post from FreeXperia Project but it is too crowded to understand existing status. I have following questions in mind before flasing

Under supported devices it mentions CM10 work in progress, where can I find list of known issues for CM 10?

Where can I find link to download compatible gapps for this ROM?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osmosizzz:
No android and Ubuntu are 2 different things. They are both Linux but different. The good think about Ubuntu OS is that it runs with arm hardware that's present in android meaning that android phones should be able to run it. I'll be waiting for it to hit and get ported to a bunch of android devices. It will run gloriously on existing android and our s3 once ported. But all we do noe is sit back, enjoy our phones and just wait

Yes, that was its Display at CES only though. During it, Ubuntu put out that it would release around 2014. I would assume many versions would be released for us to work with though before then.

For me, i think MIUI is the most user friendly ROM so far.

But I cant wait to try ubuntu, it looks pretty cool and i am sure it won't have many bugs. But u think it will work on Tmobile S3?

let's wait and see

Thanks for great news
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DigitalUnderground:
MIUI user friendly? For US users? Visit the miui thread in the original dev section. That's not the case at all any more... Not to mention miui is old news and nowhere near as customizable as aokp.

Definitely looking forward to this. It also states in the articles that it is the full blown operating system obviously customized appropriately for the interface but I'm looking forward to a full set of terminal commands instead of a condensed busy box.

One of the articles I think pointed to a Nexus in the next few weeks having a download available...not sure if that's true but I'm hoping our famous XDA devs can snag that and work their magic.

Petition to XDA to approach Canonical?

What I would like to see is to see what the interest of the developers at XDA to get their hands on the Ubuntu for Android or the Ubuntu OS for the phones, and then create a petition for XDA to get in contact with Canonical see if there is a possibility to get the XDA developers involved in the forming of Ubuntu OS for the mobile. :) Just imagine what that could do to help getting Ubuntu out there for mobile devices. I mean. I'm pretty sure we have a bunch of power users out there that would like to beta test it for Canonical.

No offense, we have to agree IOS is more acceptable. I was Iphone user, and I love how IOS desgins its UI. You get around things much faster and easier.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brfield:
Most definitely not. I used to own a number of Apple products. Their iOS setup blows. It was amazing 7 years ago or whenever the first iOS device came out, but not anymore. The only thing I still like about my old Apple devices is the click wheel for my first gen iPod Nano. Sadly though, there was a recall on them, but I got a higher capacity new one.

Lol so plain and none customizable. No thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
Why does this have to turn into iOS vs android thread? Yes miui has a very similar ui to iOS however unlike iOS miui is super customizable and has features which iOS will never have such as interactive lock screens. Not to mention you can always use a launcher on top of miui. In the end don't like miui don't install it, don't like iOS don't buy iOS products. It's all preference and highly irrelevant to Ubuntu OS on mobile devices

I just want to clean one thing up and that is Ubuntu for android is not an os replacement but an extension to android. It will be like an app to run Ubuntu from your phone. There are already ways to run ubtunu on our phone I do it all the time.

The way they are perping is to be able to simply dock your phone and it launch and still have full access to android.

Right now you have to run Ubuntu through terminal emulater and then connect through vnc to have the Ubuntu ui. Also as it stands now Ubuntu has no connectivity to android other then Bluetooth and WiFi. So when a text come you must minimize the vnc to access your text messages.

This is a great video showing what they are doing to give you Ubuntu on android (a true os on the go you might say)

He's not lying. I run Ubuntu on my phone as well as Backtrack. The apps are available to do so on the market. You download AndroidVNC, Terminal Emulator, and Complete Linux Installer. Complete Linux Installer will walk you through installing and running Ubuntu, Backtrack, Debian and one other Linux Distro. I don't beleive that it is for the feint of heart, however. I use both Ubuntu and Backtrack for work on my SG3 and Transformer Prime tablet. You might also want to download the utorrent apk from the market to download the distros. Don't dis the man just because you weren't aware of the capabilities of your own phone. Ask instead and you shall receive the information needed.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] HajmeR:
Just to make thing as clear as I can and correct few people in terms they used:

Ubuntu for Android is not released yet. There is Ubuntu emulator for Android, this is what you're talking about. Ubuntu for Android is like an app which after plugging your phone to a dock connected to monitor, mouse and keyboard makes use of phone's hardware to run Ubuntu, think of it as of Ubuntu installed on usb flash drive but without a need to connect it to a computer, you just put it in to a dock and you have Ubuntu desktop on monitor in front of you. This is great solution for people who want to keep Android on their devices but want the most portable Ubuntu possible with no need for desktop PC.

Ubuntu emulator is another interesting thing. It basically takes regular Ubuntu desktop and makes it run on your phone as app. You can think of it as of virtual machine on computer.

And finally there will be Ubuntu OS which is something completely different from both of the solutions mentioned above. It's completely new operating system for phones. It doesn't require any apps or specific Android version installed because it's not Android dependent. In other words, if your phone meets requirements of Ubuntu OS and someone will port it for your device then you should be able to install it, but it will replace Android, unless one of our great developers will find a way to make our phones to dual boot Ubuntu OS and Android. Also Ubuntu OS will have solutions from Ubuntu for Android built in, so you can connect it into a dock and enjoy Ubuntu desktop on the monitor in front of you without a need for a PC running it.

So we have 3 ways to run Ubuntu on our phones, I mean we will have 3 ways to do it very soon (I hope so ;))

I my opinion Ubuntu OS will be a great thing. I love Ubuntu, I use it on my every computer (I have dual boot with Windows on my main desktop just for Odin and gaming) and if my phone will be able to run it to (not emulator) then I will be very happy :laugh:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Lawful123:
Can't wait till mint makes an OS for our phone. ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] HajmeR:
To be honest I don't know if I like design that much. I would have to use it to make my opinion about it. For now Android has + in this one and apps. But I'm sure that I'm going to use Ubuntu for Android as soon as it will be out for sgs3 and I'm going to test UbuntuOS if it works good for me :D

I'm not a big fun of mint but I think that when Ubuntu will be out then there will be some way to make a mint like thing based on Ubuntu? But I don't think that developers of mint will make move like that. It's not that popular as Ubuntu and it doesn't have enough money and connections to make it to our phones. That's what I think, I might be wrong, but only time will show that :D

don;t know if this was posted since to lazy to read all 5 pages, but you can run ubuntu on your nexus 7 tablet, however the video i saw on installing this they were running ubuntu on their laptop using commands to download the installer. however i'm not 100% on if its possible to get android back on it. worth a shot for ubuntu fans. heres the link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation

now back on topic, i didn't really look at the videos on the device but what i saw, the UI looked awesome. hopefully once its out it can be ported over to our devices to "test" and if we like it we'll buy the actual device which i'm sure will have better specs?

Considering that all it needs is a custom kernel build, it will probably be released by a dev the same day. Any device that runs CM 10.1 and is ARMv6 compatible should be no real problem to port. Except CDMA devices... I don't know if Ubuntu is going to pour much into supporting the CDMA radio considering GSM's massive deployment.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hameerabbasi:
First off, I have a Galaxy Note 2 N7100 (Pakistan), stock updated firmware, rooted, busybox'd and init.d'd. I have a few generic questions about my device. :angel:

First, the ones that worry me, in the order listed.

In Settings > More settings > Mobile networks > Network mode, I get auto, GSM and WCDMA. Is this normal? Shouldn't I get HSPA or similar? If it varies by country, where do I check? I'm sure it's an N7100.

Do all units shipped to all countries have Gorilla Glass 2? Mine got pretty easily scratched, way easier than my Nokia N8.

And the ones I think I know, but want to be sure about:

Can I flash another country's N7100 fw to my device? [Yes]

How do I retain data? [Just flash over, redo root]

And the most important of them all:

If the answer to the above two is yes and there is a way, which country is first in the update cycle yet has English (UK/US), French, German and Italian in the language packs?

And a side-question:

What's the difference between different countries' fw?

I won't mind if someone is kind enough to answer even one question, after all, you are taking time out of your daily schedule to do it. :cyclops: :highfive:

EDIT: Sorry, people tried to number them in sequence. Won't let me.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylec:
1. Mine also says gsm/wcdma and my hspa works perfectly.

2. Yes all come with gorilla glass 2. It is still scratchable by hard objects like sand. Its scratch resistant not scratch proof.

3. Yes you can flash another cou try fw as long as both are same model. Eg. N7100

4. I would do a backup and restore rather than flashing over just to be sure there are no problems. But it may work haha.

5. Not sure, but the polish and french were first to come out followed by india. I guess french would have most language packs.

6. Not too sure about last one haha

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
you guys should try to somehow get your hands on an Aussie XT905.

Pure GSM, 4G on 1800 if that matters to you, carrier unlocked and bootloader unlockable like dev edition.

If 4G does not matter I suggest going to Razr I.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
Already looked into that.

the reason Me and her went with the XT907 with GSM.

Price is the main one.

$160-260 for a XT907 Mint

$300-550 for a XT905

$460+ for a XT907 Unlocked Bootloader

$400-560 for the i after euro conversion

It was just cheaper getting XT907 VZ one for 160 and one for 200.

I am on a Simple Data plan on Tmobile 200MB 4G and slow 2-3G there after still unlimited.

Her's also on a discount plan on O2 200MB 3G and 2G there after unlimited.

Though her Razr M is actually getting 3G in Germany will get the results later this week once she is in a better region. Since she is using stock Radio. Mines does not due to the Aussie Radio.

Did you have some success with aussie baseband. For me I have 3G and HDSPA+, but no LTE (logical since the swiss operators don't emit in the 700Mhz band). But they are identical to Australie and xt905.
