If you haven't seen it yet, rusty88 from xda has made an image of sailfish for GS3!
Here are some more instructions and the download link for the image if anyone wants to give it a try

Thanks everyone for sharing here what's happening at xda-dev, & elsewhere.
IIRC I saw a OnePlus One port commencing, & some other major makes/models.

Any news on the Jolla Launcher for Android. As I recollect, a beta version was going to be released in August. Thanks!

Where did you see that??
The only things I think that are available are some apks to install on an xda thread (some are custom with some more ambiences if you haven't seen them)...

There really needs to be a Jolla Launcher thread @TMO for the folks who actually care about that...

Why don't you make one?
The only bad/weird thing is that there are also people doing some work on this on the xda forums and it's a pity that we can't/don't work together...
We could do something better!

P.S: Some guys there were talking about how to add more ambiences. So you had to decompile the package. It was the first time hearing about decompiling, so I have one question... When you decompile a package, does this mean you can see the whole source code, the one that the developers had wrote from the first time? If yes, why some times we bother about open source programs if it is easy to see the source code?? Sorry for this silly question

It was mentioned in post 32 of this xda thread

http://forum.xda-developers.com/joll...aking-t2795771

Not sure what their source is but I thought I saw it elsewhere too (not that it makes it true!)

There have been two releases that I know of. I've tried them on my note 3 and galaxy tab pro 8.4. The first release seem to work ok but the second seemed to crash a bit too much. Currently, for me, other launchers (like ss launcher) combined with some Xposed modules (like swipe) give a better overall experience. When Android L comes out, my guess is that the gap will widen.

I just got hold of a nexus so I hope to try out sailfish on it in the near future. I actually have a Jolla phone but don't use it as a daily drive. More fun just trying to get Sailfish to work on other hardware.

I kind of wish the N9 OS could be ported to android. That was about the best overall experience for me. Very well thought out.
