Hello and good news everybody!
Sailfish OS on Nexus 4, this is a community port!
Android-in-a-Window (sfdroid) support is now possible!

We are also working to rebase onto CM 12.1 for more goodies; you can help us by testing Backup to cloud (and restore) introduced in 2.0.2.51, as this will be needed during the CM reflash.

Status, download, installation...
Sailfish OS is a GNU/Linux based mobile operating system, which is gesture-driven for the ease of use. It runs natively as glibc (not Android's bionic), has bash and busybox (not toolbox), uses Qt for UX, and other opensource projects in its middleware -- which basically is just like a Linux on your desktop, and runs native Qt apps and cmdline apps, but doesn't run Android apps (check for Android-in-a-Window above if you need them).
And everything else you need to know:

Thank you for sharing this good news. Sailfish alongside lollipop is then no problem? That's great and really helpful for others!

Just encountered a problem with Clash Of Clans. The screen freezes every few seconds for milliseconds. I think it's some graphic-related problem with the old modem. (Btw there is a typo in my post.. I use the .84 one ;))
Maybe a hybrid modem would help but I'm to lazy to setup SailfishOS again :p

I used 0.48 modem and it didn't worked. I'll switch to 0.84 then. I'm on stock 5.0.1 with custom kernel.

yeah, sorry for the typo :/
I'm on self-built CM12 with the CM11-kernel from MultiROM (for the Kexec-hardboot problem).
I flashed the 0.84 modem and then installed sailfishOS with current MultiROM (CM 10.1.3 and this GREAT community sailfish-build)

Did you flash the modem all over the system or through MultiROM feature?

@carepack any suggestion for modem to set through MultiROM for WiFi, Bluetooth and sound to work? 3G data is working with stock 5.0.1 radio.
as far as I've seen, it doesn't work via MultiROM.
Bluetooth doesn't work yet anyhow.
totally right! You can track the status of working hardware on:
https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris

gps, bluetooth, nfc not working. i recommend 0.84 modem. But you can play with it and look where you get best results. also this thread may help you:

Do android apps work with this version?

Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Free mobile app
first post
Known issues:
OTA Updates do not work
The camera does not fully work
Android app support is not available (unlike in Jolla phone): please ask about the status for open-source Dalvik runtime framework on #sailfishos-porters on irc.freenode.net and also check this XDA Thread
All remaining: In Bugzilla

okay good news: the graphic problem seems to be coming from the cm11 kernel. so we (we = CM12 users) just have to wait for a cm12 kernel with kexec-hardboot support :)

Nice to see some progress in Sailfish for N4. Could someone report on MTP or UMS? I really missed being able to copy files onto the phone.

copyin' files is no problem. ssh/sftp/scp/gnome. if you're a linux user it should be easy for you. But if you want to prefer mtp you'll have to wait. Not working atm
UMS? = UMTS
