** Work-In-Progress: Ubuntu Touch Preview is just that.. a PREVIEW. Do not complain about missing features, etc. The OS isn't nearly ready for primetime. **

Curious as to how the Ubuntu Touch Preview looks? Why not load it on your Droid Bionic and see for yourself.

Instructions:

1. Make a Titanium Backup and/or backup in recovery of your current Android (or just keep it on another rom-slot). This preview is fun to play with but not a replacement for something as developed as CM 10.1

2. Download the Bionic Mini-Android base for Ubuntu Touch and place it on your device:
[03/01]

(use the newest one)

3. Download the latest Ubuntu Touch Preview Filesystem .zip from Ubuntu:

4. Reboot into Safestrap. Create a NEW 2GB ROM in the #4 slot.

IMPORTANT:
4a. Install the quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip FIRST, and then the phablet-2013xxxx.zip SECOND.

5. Reboot and Enjoy

FIRST BOOT TAKES A LONG TIME. AND THERE'S NO BOOT ANIMATION. BE PATIENT (MAYBE 3-4 MINUTES).

WHAT WORKS:
  • Display
  • Touch screen
  • Wifi
  • Audio
WHAT DOESN'T WORK:

There's so much that is still being implemented into the Touch version of Ubuntu, that this list could get pretty long.
  • Barely any sensors other than touchscreen work. IE: no rotation, etc. Ubuntu WIP issue.
  • No HD codecs (still being worked on) Ubuntu WIP issue.
  • No screen timeout / auto blank -- be careful when walking away from the device. Need to press the power button to turn the screen off. Ubuntu WIP issue.
RELATED UBUNTU TOUCH LINKS:
(Some of these describe how to install it on devices -- you can ignore those instructions and follow the above)

This will absolutely not work on slot1. It is hard-coded for slot4.

I know that this is supposed to take a while to boot, but mine's been sitting for about 10 minutes with a black screen and no lit buttons. I installed into slot 4 with a fresh 2GB slot and I installed the zips in the order listed in the OP, but it doesn't seem to work.

No way, you guys are wrong. Never mind the fact that you built it, you obviously don't know how to work it!

Or, Hoffa is an idiot.

Or, Hoffa is being a troll.

I'd like to assume that he's replying in the wrong thread.

Thanks, Hashcode! Can't wait to get this thing loaded and check it out. Will be looking closely here, and XDA, awaiting future releases.

2-28 booted fine. Soft keys do NOT work. Overall, it will be awesome when it works with functionality.

GREAT JOB HASH!!!!

BTW, what audio is fixed? Calls dont work (i dont think).
