ll to android on an android device?
<k1l> the ubuntu-phone code
<Preed> whats that code for?
<lcabreza1> what country is this phone available ?
<k1l> lcabreza1: not available yet
<Preed> you mean the source code?
<k1l> Preed: no, ubuntu for android/ubuntu is a desktop-unity
<Preed> so the ubuntu phone cant dock and turn into a desktop?
<k1l> Preed: yes source code. the user who left right after you joined complained before that there is no code released so far from ubuntu-phone
<k1l> Preed: the ubuntu for android based on the motorola webtop hardware . the dev-device was the motorola atrix. i dont know what the actual stage is and if other phones will support it wihout that special hardware
<Preed> But.. The ubuntu-phone wont be able to do that? only phones that ship with android+ubuntu for android?
<k1l> Preed: i dont know if there is any special hardware needed. so if you put ubuntu-phone on your old smartphone i dont know if it will support the desktop mode
<k1l> but that is all guessing. im not an involved dev and there is no code so far.

<Preed> "If your hardware works with android, it will also work with ubuntu"
<k1l> Preed: that doesnt include the desktop-dock-thingy, imho
<Preed> True
<k1l> it means that they  can use the android kernel and the android driver for the hardware components
<Preed> But why would that need any special hardware? Just launch the desktop and clone the phone screen to the hdmi/mhl-out..
<Preed> Might want dual ramdacs(?) to output a different/higher resolution to the hdmi out though..
<Preed> I think the SGS4 will have 1080p resolution though so on that it wouldnt be neccessary
<Preed> But 1280x720 is a bit low for a desktop
<Preed> The pics of the ubuntu-phone here http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/phone is an SGS3, aside from no hardware home button, missing samsung logo, and those 3 little dots on the lower right side(speaker?)
<k1l> no its not. its a galaxy nexus
<Preed> oh, well, they look damn s
