MeeGo comes to mobiles. But not the ones we thought. Not in the way we had imagined. We talk about the presence of this operating system platform designed between Nokia and Intel that has crept to our surprise, at the last flagship Google: the Nexus S. After the hodgepodge of brands and manufacturers, we are going to make everything a little clearer. One of the developers of the XDA Developers forum has managed to start a copy of MeeGo from the mobile that Samsung made for Mountain View. And it has not done flashing or hacking the phone in any way. Nothing of that.
The process has been as simple as loading a disk image with the MeeGo system from the Google Nexus S memory card. After this, he has managed to start the platform, which, however, has not gone as fine as the author of the work would have liked, since the Google Nexus S has dragged some problems.
The most remarkable thing is the errors caused by the lack of communication between the mobile controllers and the operating system itself, which was overlapping Android 2.3 Gingerbread. As it has been known through XDA Developers, the screen has been the main affected of the process.
The multi-touch commands were very unstable, and the Super AMOLED system did not show its full power, so the panel looked excessively dark during the experiment. The Wi-Fi was annulled sensor directly (to the same happened with the ROM of Gingerbread which was tested on the Samsung Galaxy S).
Interestingly enough, the system root access and applications from the MeeGo interface worked correctly, so there would be hope for those who want to risk tinkering with open source platforms that could be installed on the Google Nexus S, as well as others. terminals.
