Here is a dev thread regarding porting Ubuntu Touch. Have started working on a port for the GT-N7000. Not sure how successful I'll be, however there was at least one dev from that thread looking for testers.

First do full-wipe, then install cm10.1 (or a cm10.1 based rom).Boot it and shut down.

Flash this: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-tou....

Finally this: http://www.vbocz.com/files/ubuntu-n70...

Reboot.

(Only the camera seems to work. No gsm, no wifi, no adb yet.)

You are reviving an old thread. Let it die in peace.

BTW, there's a newer version where WiFi works. Search before posting such things.

    Hey folks, I'm keen to start work porting the gnexus image for Ubuntu to the N7000 when it's released later this week. Is anyone else keen to join this effort?

    While very familiar with the linux commandline, servers, desktop linux, and flashing my phone, I haven't compiled much code before and am unsure where to start. I would appreciate any advice you might have.

    Looking forward to getting this os running on our original notes.

    I'm presuming you're going to need to build an unbuntu compatible kernel for the note, mobile devices don't tend to work in the same way as desktops, so the pretty much universal kernel model used on the desktops don't work too well here. (size being the major consideration).

    Not really looked into what they are doing, I'm presuming they will release source under gpl, so at least you will be able to diff a standard gnex build and the ubuntu. You can then use that as a basis to rebuild for the note.

    "Porting" an image if that's all they release is going to end up quite messy.
    EDIT according to techradar they will release source http://www.techradar.com/news/softw...galaxy-nexus-nexus-4-coming-next-week-1131567

    You think every android phone runs on the same kernel? Think again.

    Well i'm sorry if you understood my post like that. Of course not :) I'm not just that good in english :/
