Hey drapalyuk, thanks for the instructions. I followed your instructions line by line. And I got the following error

Code: 
 brunch n7100
including vendor/cm/vendorsetup.sh

** Don't have a product spec for: 'cm_n7100'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?

No such item in brunch menu. Try 'breakfast'


I guess something is wrong with my manifest.xml. I tried
Code: 
repo sync
first with local_manifest.xml as you said. The following are its contents of my local_manifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="drapalyuk/android_device_samsung_n7100" path="device/samsung/n7100" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
<project name="drapalyuk/android_device_samsung_smdk4412-common" path="device/samsung/smdk4412-common" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
<project name="drapalyuk/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412" path="kernel/samsung/smdk4412" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
<project name="drapalyuk/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
</manifest>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

Later, I removed local_manifest.xml and edited manifest.xml as per Ubuntu's porting guide. Added the following lines -
<project path="device/samsung/n7100" name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_n7100" remote="github" revision="refs/heads/cm-10.1" />
<project path="device/samsung/smdk4412-common" name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_smdk4412-common" remote="github" revision="refs/heads/cm-10.1" />
<project path="kernel/samsung/smdk4412" name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412" remote="github" revision="refs/heads/cm-10.1" />
<project path="hardware/samsung" name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung" remote="github" revision="refs/heads/cm-10.1" />
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

Both the times I get the above error when running
Code: 
[B]brunch n7100[/B]
. Can you please guide me as to what I might be doing wrong. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Doing that right now, didn't think it was important as Ubuntu doesn't use Dalvik, and it wasn't specified anywhere on the Ubuntu Wiki. Anyways setting up JDK- will let you know how it goes.

Sorry man I found your repositories, I don't know why I had trouble. I went back and edited my last post also.

I will have to do some comparing but maybe i can get this to build and boot on the T-Mobile Note II.

I tried downloading with my phone and twice it stopped around 100KB. Trying now with my system.

On a different note, I compiled Ubuntu Touch yesterday and was able to generate the zip in croot/out folder. But when I try to flash it through TWRP my phone is stuck on the Model screen. It doesn't go forward. Any ideas? I Wiped completely, then flashed ubuntu Zip and then flashed the quantal zip. What am I doing wrong?

Shannon, Ms.
Ok I forked drapalyuk's android_device_samsung_smdk4412-common, android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412, and android_hardware_samsung. I then compared the .mk files in his n7100 folder and the .mk files in my t0lte folder. I made changes in the android_device_samsung_t0lte and to android_hardware_samsung. Here is a link to my git hub. It builds for 15 to 20 minutes before it errors out. I think it is past building the kernel. Below is the error I get. Maybe someone can help me with this one.

Code:

    Currently I'm trying to run Ubuntu Touch Developer Preview on my Note II
    So far Ubuntu touch based on cm-10.1 it is quite simple to port to any device supported by cm.

    For beginning there are some useful guides:

    And here we go:

    First of all prepare the Build Environment
    Code: 
    sudo apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
  zip bzr curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \
  libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \
  libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos \
  python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386 schedtool

    Install phablet-tools
    Code: 
    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install phablet-tools

    To get the source code do bootstrap, it takes a looooong time and need about 15 GB of disk space
    Code: 
    phablet-dev-bootstrap -j 4 ubuntu-touch
    Code: 
    cd ubuntu-touch

    Now we need to grab the n7100 specific git repositories.
    In general we use CyanogenMode repositories with some changes made for ubuntu phone
    For the moment I'm not sure whether it is all changes what we need, therefore I have fork them on git hub,
    so just create a new file .repo/local_manifest.xml with content:
    Code: 
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
  <project name="drapalyuk/android_device_samsung_n7100" path="device/samsung/n7100" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
  <project name="drapalyuk/android_device_samsung_smdk4412-common" path="device/samsung/smdk4412-common" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
  <project name="drapalyuk/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412" path="kernel/samsung/smdk4412" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
  <project name="drapalyuk/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" revision="phablet-10.1" />
</manifest>

    Code: 
    repo sync -j4

    Extract proprietary blobs, expected you have all ready installed CM-10 on your phone, if not Install CM for n7100
    Code: 
    cd device/samsung/n7100
./extract-files.sh

    If you want to speed up subsequent builds after this one
    Turn on caching
    Code: 
    export USE_CCACHE=1

    Start the build
    Code: 
    . build/envsetup.sh
brunch n7100
    After successfully build N7100 zip installer will be placed into out/target/product/n7100/cm-10.1-<date>-UNOFFICIAL-n7100.zip

    Installation instructions:

    Fixed the kernel issue. Turned out I missed some flags for Ubuntu. Added them and its booting now. May have a way to fix wifi. Going to try it later today.
    ADDED: for some reason disabling paranoid in config caused it to lag for me. (tested with both). Ill try with your zimage
