You're talking about the Ubuntu for Android, it's a different project
(almost abandoned) using a phone base connected via HDMI cable to a
screen and using its ROM as a Desktop distro. That's not going to
happen.
But Ubuntu Touch will is already able to run some Software Center apps
made for desktop, so the convergence has begun. Right now, Ubuntu Touch
can run on Phones, Tablets, Phablets and other touch-driven devices.
Unity8 is the next desktop that will unify everything. So in some way,
that old project Ubuntu for Anrdoid is being a reality with Ubuntu
Touch. But we have to wait a little for that. If you have your Ubuntu
phone, just keep updated with the OTAs and you'll receive more and more
features, including these ones.

Hello Rafaell, Hello All.
Will be supported switch to desktop mode on Ubuntu Mobile when HDMI
or MHL cable will be conected to external display as was shown some
years ago?
This can follow mobile desktops as opossite to notebooks or hybrid
tablets. One device, many fuctions.
Thanks,
Peter.

Hello, steven.
Yes, there're a few models supporting Ubuntu Touch now, but the list
is growing. Here's a compatibility device list:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices
Also consider the Meize MX and BQ Ubuntu Edition models that comes
with flashed Ubuntu ROMs so you don't have to do it.

Greetings!
I would dearly love to install the Ubuntu OS on my cell phone, but
am aware that there are only certain models which are currently
compatible, besides the Aquaris phones available to purchase (only
available in certain countries http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/devices).
Have any Lubuntu/Ubuntu users on this group had any
experience/success with this? My current phone is an LG L70
(apparently not compatible with Ubuntu or Cyanogenmod).
Also, please give feedback on experiences with rooting your
phone/workarounds, and what OSs you have had success with.
Apologies for this not being strictly Lubuntu related, but I think
the info would be useful as the subject of "device convergence" is
quite topical.
Thank you.
Steve
