UBports and Hallium layer |
|
The UBports team has published an update in which they cover process in porting their mobile operating system to new platforms along with options to get UBports running on the PinePhone and the upcoming Volla phone. Work is also progressing on the Hallium layer which should allow multiple Linux-based mobile operating systems to run on Android devices. "Alfred spoke about the current status of Halium 9, which is a project to enable Ubuntu Touch and other operating systems to run on Android phones based on version 9. Pretty much all of the base system is running now, including sensors using sensorfw. Bluebinder is installed so Bluetooth works. Calls connect but there is no audio with them yet. Google Pixel 3a is a port which Alfred is working on. Erfan has released a new GSI [generic system image] with roofts and packaged Halium. The compatibility intended by Project Treble does actually seem to be having some valuable consequences. Those who are porting devices using this new version of Halium will only need to supply kernel modifications, so the process should become much simpler and many more devices should come on stream." Further information can be found in the project's blog post. |
