Breaking News
Alpha2 Announcement
Dear Community,
Today we're releasing an alpha 2 version of our work. We have worked very hard through the last months to archive our goals of having a usable device running Open webOS. Due to a lot things we aren't that far as we thought we could be. Nevertheless we have some important features implemented which warrant the alpha 2 release today. These are:
- Video acceleration for card web apps (not perfect yet)
- Audio playback support (includes HTML5 audio support)
- Telephony support through the Android telephony stack (based on the great work of the Ubuntu Touch project. Thank you very much guys!)
- Mostly not available through the UI, but if you put a SIM card with unlocked PIN into your device you will notice the telephony indicator.
All in all we're basing our porting efforts on top of the libhybris project (see https://github.com/libhybris/libhybris) which enables us to utilize the Android hardware drivers to support most hardware dependent things (like accelerated graphics, telephony, sensors, GPS, ...). Our developers are contributing to the libhybris project in a continuous manner so we can share things developed as part of the libhybris project with its other users (Mer, Salfish, Ubuntu Touch, ...). For example libhybris is the same thing which powers Ubuntu Touch on all the different Android based devices.
We already archived a lot but are still not at the point of having a usable day phone or tablet as we're missing a lot work on the application side. There is already existing work to port preware to enyo 2 but still a lot other areas which need help. If you're a webOS enthusiast or like our project feel free to contribute (you find all ways to contact us at http://www.webos-ports.org/wiki/Communications). We need every help we can get to archive our final goal of having a usable phone/tablet!
Regards, Simon (morphis), for the webOS ports team!

WebOS Internals has set up a dedicated team for:
- System updates for legacy TouchPad devices using
the webOS Community Edition (WOCE) release. - Moving forward to well-documented mobile devices with
readily available hardware drivers using the Open webOS 1.0 release.
The team is called WebOS Ports (webos-ports.org)
and is led by Tom King (ka6sox).
