For example, Ubuntu Touch has a guide with ubports' so you would search for "ubports porting guide"

On the official documentation, it says the Lineage Os 12.1 or 14.1 is needed to port. But if my device is running Android 13, do I need to have those versions for my device?

depends on your device VNDK version and target distro

we're at this point in time where you can't just buy a random phone and expect it to work, prior research is required as the list of viable options is pretty short

Halium

neither unfortunately

Halium

Thank you, but how can I contact the company and request the source code? Where can I find company support or their contact email?

wrong vendor choice really

Halium

24 January 2026 17:43

They mentioned droidian

Halium

24 January 2026 17:41

Then you don't need to build halium directly, use the Droidian guide

Halium

24 January 2026 17:17

What device? What halium version?

Halium

i need to patch my kernel into halium

Halium

24 January 2026 16:55

Search for "u ports porting guide" if you want to port Ubuntu Touch, or Droidian porting guide if you want droididan

Halium

24 January 2026 16:20

I 1. don't know how to do this, 2. if i will do it myself, please explain how

Halium

Hi everyone, if I send you the vendor_boot.img file, will you be able to patch it to run Droidian's rootfs in UserData?

Hello everyone! Xiaomi Mi 9, I can install Ubuntu touch?

Halium

20 February 2026 22:09

If your device released with Android 13 then you should follow the direct guide for whichever OS you want to port on your device

Halium

17 February 2026 09:13

there is not much involved that is part of Halium specifically

Halium

Halium

05 February 2026 19:16

Samsung has closed bootloader unlock on their devices recently, Xiaomi make it as painful as possible

Halium

05 February 2026 18:08

Would you recommend Samsung or Xiaomi phones for upgrading to Linux?

Halium

05 February 2026 17:52

you may attempt something with GKI kernel sources, but 5.4 is the first version of thatt

Halium

24 January 2026 17:02

Halium

24 January 2026 16:57

this group is only about halium itself. if you want help porting droidian, you should ask in their groups, wherever that may be

Halium

24 January 2026 16:54

There's documentation, just use your favorite search engine to find it

Halium

24 January 2026 16:19

I'm fairly certain nobody is going to agree to that, why not try doing it yourself?

Halium

05 December 2025 04:46

How did you end up here for that question? The answer is on devices.ububtu-touch.io

I'm going to ask her in case anyone knows, I have been trying to get UBTouch running and currently have a booting kernel which I can telnet into. When the Ubuntu image is loaded usb-moded fails resulting in no USB connection and so no way to network into the device but it's still running resulting in logs generated. I have a few errors but in particular wanted to ask about "TLS relocations not yet implemented" and if there is a fix, I have seen some references to hybris-patch but no information on how that is used.
