How's development going for this thread?

Is the ubuntu touch image from the first post useable? Can we update it once installed?

Cheers and thanks for the work on this so far...

Peace

I was wondering if the OP was going to update the build to UT 1.0?, :D. Also CuteSpotify should be in the Ubuntu Touch market. :)

Same Problem here.

When i install the LAST zip the touchpad reboot when the installation process is between 50% and 75%...

I think this reboot is the failure...

TWRP or CWM

I Have a TP 32GB that currently runs WebOS and CyanogenMod 11.

Recovery=TWRP touch.

I have used the UbuntuTouch_Partition_Creator

Now i Booted into TWRP --> Advanced --> File Manager and deleted uImage.CyanogenMod As I only wanted Ubuntu Touch.

Now flashed saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip first and the cm10.1 zip second.

Rebooted.

Selected Ubuntu Touch.

[Other TouchPad Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Guys,

I have a 32GB Touchpad, that's currently setup to boot...

1) WebOS 3.0.5, 2) Android 4.3 (PAC rom), 3) Ubuntu 12.10 (native)

What I am wondering, or would like to do is...

1) WebOS 3.0.5

2) Android KitKat (not sure on version/build yet?? Whether to go for 3.4 kernal... as not sure on Data Media partitions, or stick with what I have?)

3) Touch Ubuntu 13.10 (am I right in thinking this is just Android, based on CM... or is it really officially Ubuntu build??)

4) Ubuntu (native). Any build higher than 12.10 that doesn't have the silly GUI thats in 13.04... and vga drivers that actually work, unlike current 12.10

Is this possible, and if so... how? please.....

Many thanks, Lister

noob instructions for install

Im currently running cm tenderloin 4.1.2 and would love to have ubuntu touch 13.10 on here as well. What are the most up to date full instructions for installing it? Will i need to upgrade my android install or first factory reset everything then install newest versions of android then ubuntu? Also is the latest version of ubuntu touch stable?

I really appreciate all the hard work that you all do for this. I would def be doing for making an installation video if i can (hopefully) get it installed. Thanks all and happy new year!

[Other TouchPad Development] DJAvion:
:( do you know what the latest stable version is and where the latest instructions are ? If I get it to install id write up the instructions as best as I can.
[Other TouchPad Development] logvynenko_oo:
Don't hesitate

The instructions are pretty clear in the first post of this thread - I followed them couple of days ago - had WebOS 3.05 and CM 10.2 (Android 4.3) - nothing was broken after installing Ubuntu Touch. System is not too usable though - need updates. So had to use AcmeUninstaller to free the storage - also worked fine with no data loss.

Don't be scared - just backup all data, ready WebOS doctor just in case and give it a try - if you follow carefully nothing bad's gonna hasppen.

Fixes the side stage with some regression.

Attach your HPTP to your computer.

Open the terminal on your computer and run

sudo adb pull /usr/share/applications/ /yourlocation/

Go through each app and remove this line

Push your files back and profit.

Also replacing SideStage with Main works. But we still loose some menu functionality either fix I try. I'm sure this is just a feature that has not been fully implemented into Ubuntu Touch yet.

I wonder if that is because.. the terminal.. we meant for sidestage???

I am curious why the terminal wants to be in the sidestage by default...

Does it happen if the terminal is left in sidestage???

I know the phone\tablet orientation is not like Quantal.. and won't really be working until Mir...
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
I think the terminal app is written for portrait..

don't know.. will try to recompile it as well. =)
[Other TouchPad Development] blmvxer:
It is actually I believe. Because the Phone and Phablet are usually in portrait mode.

I wonder if there would be any secrets with the Manta builds? You know since the Nexus 10 is displayed usually in Landscape.

[Edit]

It'll work properly if you don't rotate the screen at all. Which becomes difficult if you carry it around with you.

I wonder if we can lock rotation just for our device? I'll look through unity8 and the shell.qml later tonight.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
There is a rotation lock in settings.. But... it is just a place holder. :laugh:
[Other TouchPad Development] blmvxer:
No luck with the unity8 folder on this endeavor. It may be hardcoded into each app which means we would have to patch every single one.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

Edit /usr/share/ubuntu-terminal-app/ubuntu-terminal-app.qml

And change automaticRotation to false.

Now the keyboard does still mess up. But you just need to rotate the screen within the app you are using several times with the keyboard close. Activate the keyboard and it'll be fixed. We can do this to each app that needs it. :)

But I've been working on the Unity8 issues and placeholders as a solo act. :) for the slow boot time I'm not sure. Would you be able to add a OC'd kernel(1.6-1.7ghz possibly). I installed preload which has helped slightly.

[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Status Update:

After wasting 2 days of time, I think I know why I could not compile cm10.1 borrowing from cm11 sources. Both milaq but I notice milaq is borrowing from Evervolv or they are working together. Also these sources seem to have 3.0.1 not 3.4 kernel.. May not be a big deal...

Anyways... should have a cm10.1 with a newer kernel soon??? (today)

Then I can use that source for ubuntu touch.
[Other TouchPad Development] vqstaphbeard:
Awesome!

I believe the cm10.1 roms are using the 3.0.x kernel and the cm 11 (or other android 4.4) roms are using the 3.4.x kernel. I know JCSullins cm 10.1 rom uses the 3.0.x kernel.

Not sure, jshafer817 asked earlier if the 3.x kernels could be used with CM10.1 or can UbuntuTouch be used with CM11 (which has the 3.x kernel also) so I figured this fit the bill.

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

Also, I've been running for 3ish days now, it seems pretty stable. Bluetooth works, camera does not, battery drain is a taste higher that his CM10.1 kernel 2.6 builds (snapshot bluetooth/vpn builds.)

first time post, long time user of HPTP with webOS 3.0.5, android 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4, and ubuntu 13.04, 13.10

i have installed ubuntu 13.10 along side android 4.4, i followed the orginal post to the tee i used clockworkmod to install the CM10.1 first and then the ubuntu and ubuntu works. the ubuntu 13.10 is working but is missing software center. how do i get the software center installed. i have tried the sudo apt-get install software-center, and nothing happens it shuts the hptp down. i have tried the sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, same thing happens. also i cant create a user either. i can only login as guest. any assistents would be helpful at this point. i have looked at other forums and i am coming up with nothing that helps.

thanks
[Other TouchPad Development] vqstaphbeard:
There is no software center for ubuntu touch at the moment. And as far as I know there is not going to be one either. I believe the plan is to search and install software through the dash/scopes (I also believe this is the plan for Unity 8 on the desktop.) As far as UT currently, click apps should be installed. I don't believe one can create users at this point either.

Waiting for a real kitkat trusty solution which should be out anyday..

Which will be great for libhybris..

In the meantime I have been working on something like this:

http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=6523

Finally got it working with 2.6 kernel.. which is what I am aiming for at the moment.. until there is a proper libhybris for kitkat, then we can use 3.0..

I might be able to use the cm-10.1 with 3.0 that I frankensteined as surfaceflinger works.. but... I think I have more to figure out with that kernel and udev permissions related to the GPU and EGL. That is until gnome3 can use hybris then I want to compare freedreno vs libhybris.

Worse, I am using ics sources for archlinux. =) Trying to recompile mesa without egl, glesv1 or 2 and then see what happens with wayland and qt and openbox.. whatever that is. I read libhybris should be able to do this with mesa as long as mesa doesn't have egl, glesv1 and 2... so.. see what happens.
