Oppo Find 5 to get Ubuntu Touch?

Oppo Find 5 seems so popular that some developers want to port Ubuntu Touch to it. The main guy behind this project is Oppo forum user Eoghan, who has only just started “getting a device tree etc modified to work with Ubuntu touch’s build environment.”

There’s little “fancy pants” stuff to see for now but we may get the first working version within next few weeks or so. Ubuntu’s comprehensive set of documentation on porting Ubuntu Touch to Android devices will certainly help make this an easier effort, but then again – there’s a lot of work ahead.

You are free to join conversation at Oppo forums, from where you can also keep up with this project.

We love how this all sounds and can’t wait for Canonical to finally launch Ubuntu for Android, finally allowing us to have one device for all our needs…Nokia Lumia 925 is coming to AT&T which will start offering it at some point in mid-September for $99 with a two-year contract. At the same time, the price of the very similar Lumia 920 should fall to $49, WPCentral is reporting.

And with this addition, AT&T would cement its position as the largest mobile operator to support Microsoft’s mobile platform. Currently the carrier is offering the Lumia 520, Lumia 920 and Lumia 1020, while the Lumia 820 has been phased out due to low sales.

If you’ve been living under a rock you should know that the Nokia Lumia 925 comes in a thin, aluminum body with a polycarbonate back. It packs a 4.5-inch AMOLED screen with Gorilla Glass 2, 8.7-megapixel PureView camera on the back, Qualcomm’s 1.5GHz dual-core processor, an array of sensors, and 16 or 32 GB of internal storage. The rumor suggests AT&T will get to sell the 16GB version though you never know – they may also sell the one packing 32 gigs of internal memory.
