To avoid confusion/mistakes with the future Q&A, please create a new topic if you want to continue the discussion further. BTW The question you're referring to has been answered in Q&A those ports are mostly made by the community, so support for older phones will continue if the community is willing to. I'll lock this thread, but feel free to open a new topic and answer there.

There is no way AFAIK. One would need to implement support for using libhybris to talk to android camera service in ffmpeg, or provide some shim that exposes camera service as a v4l device so that ffmpeg can use it without libhybris.

Best regards, Steve Berson Porting Porting Ubuntu Touch to new devices Devices 328 Topics 4473 Posts J I started to read the guide about porting and as I understand some basics must be given, like TWRP recovery to enter the device, vendor blobs, etc. I got e.g. a Gigaset ME Pro, which was meant to be a high end device back then and therefore still has potent hardware, comparable to the Volla Phone which comes from Gigaset, too. I also got a GS370 Plus with similar hardware and even another one. Gigaset had many good devices, but they hardly updated the software, so the devices were outdated pretty quickly which is a pity. However, I can't find anything that seems to be necessary to start a port. Is that possible at all in that case? While the GS370 Plus was running on Android 8 (updated from Android 7), the ME Pro was running on Android 5 as far as I remember. How about that? Thanks for your answers. Lomiri (was Unity8) Lomiri, the operating environment for everywhere 42 Topics 384 Posts In the latest Q&A @mariogrip said that he's been working on documenting and improving the process of building the Lomiri stack. Once that is published (following editorial checks by @UniSuperBox ) I expect it to include details for building QtMir and, hopefully, also running the test example in that project.

I cannot get this song out of my mind! It is Penelope Scott with "Rät". Well, I am not a developer, but I totally get her point on the tech-industry. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=LpxT9TLGoLI Great line: "you promised to be Tesla, but you're just another Edison". We are the good people, right? Hope someone likes it, too. Reply by song? Best regards....
