i had a hacked version for my htc hd2 sadly old phone wasnt designed to run it. but i did love it. the power of ubuntu on a phone. i was looking at a crowdfund ubuntu was running to develop there own phone. also lobed the phone gui and the fact if you plugged it into a tv or computer screen it would change to full ubuntu desktop

I'm not a big fan of the actual phones and I'd rather stick to my htc one m8, but I'd like to test the os out because I'm a big fan of ubuntu. Will it be available to download and install on other phones at some point?

might be worth having a look over at xda-developers might have a sd boot version for your phone

Can't see it making much of a dent in the mobile OS market to be honest.
I'm sticking with CyanogenMod.

It's good there is an alternative to Android.
