        Hi guys,

        I would like to install Ubuntu Touch on my old Samsung Galaxy S2, just to look if the mobiles works a little bit better after the implantation.
        I have been spending the last two days lokking for articles which could help me in the operation, but I don't find anything which actually works.
        Can someone help me?

        Best Regards and thanks,
        Lorenzo

          @cinotti-lorenz0 heya, there is no existing port available, however if you'd wanna go through the trouble you can port it yourself. heres a link to get you started: https://docs.halium.org/en/latest/porting/first-steps.html

              I doubt a port to this device would be worth the trouble even if possible. It comes with an old Android version and only 1 GB of RAM.

                Definitely too old. We are struggling to support Kernel 3.4 and Android 5.1 stick devices. Nexus 4 is I think the only exception where an even older device was made usable, but it has at least kernel 3.4 - You wont get much help with anything older than that.
