        Please accept my candidacy for the Ubuntu phone. I have been on Linux since floppy images were DL'd from Compuserve for SLS and Slackware.
        I'm running the full build stack for Halium, right now, with efforts at a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge port in the works. I'm also running a community build candidate for e.foundation to support US versions of this device.
        As an infosec pro, I'm especially interested in contributing and testing to network privacy aspects of a U-phone port, including TOR configurations and secure alternatives to iCloud or G-drive, such as user-configurable WebDAV for NextCloud backend, etc.

          Hi, I'm interessed. My current phones are boring. I'll want test a new OS. I don't have a big experience with Ubuntu but I think that is good time to begin.

              Hello UBports, I will be very happy to be able to receive one of this device so I can now start developing for UbuntuTouch! Today I use Ubuntu on my notebook and I have a LG that runs Android, but it is very complicated to develop for an UbuntuTouch version without having one in hand, one of these devices will surely help me a lot! Thank you very much!

                @UBportsNews Dear Ubuntu Touch Developers,
                I have Xiaomi mi8 as a daily driver. I tried many terminal emulators but some od them need to have root. I just want to ps aux | grep firefox and simply kill firefox PID. Many terminal commands doesnt work under Android and to be honest I would like to make my life Google-Free for privacy. I have some knowledge about programming in C and C++ as well as Python, the only thing I want to develop in case od porting Ubuntu Touch to Xiaomi devices is QML. A reference phone would be an amazing Santa Claus gift as I love Linux since I was 15 (now 23).
                Best wishes,
                Peter from Poland

                    Hi guys.

                    I'm a Java/Android developer, Ubuntu user. I would be glad to help with testing and/or developing.
                    I would really like to receive one of the devices you are sending out, switching from Android to Ubuntu Touch.
                    Thanks a lot and a big "good luck" for your project.

                      Hi, I'm a hobbyist, I built a simple keyboard for arduino, 36 or 57 programmable buttons are available. The housing was printed in fdm technology on a 3D printer. A good idea was to add support for Ubuntu Touch https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3628499

                              We would like to thank everyone for their interest and enthusiasm in responding to our call out for developers and answering this thread. We will in due course be contacting all those who will be receiving a device directly. I will now close this thread. Which only leaves me to once again thank you all for your interest in this exciting project.
