For porting Sailfish, you have to port both libhyrbis and sailfish on the exact software of the phone?
yes, the image contains script that checks that its being installed on Nexus 4 (Mako) and quits if the hardware is not Mako.
You could unpack the image, change the script, repack the image - and get it flashed. But, fairly sure it wont even boot (bootloaders differ)

You will need the HW adaptation for your device. On top of that you can install the generic SailfishOS part.

Why is this a non public thing? Will jolla release it? Will thp release under his own flag? Does it really matters...

I have to admit that this is a great question!
Maybe he wants to improve it before make it public, who knows ?

It will for sure give us a Sailfish "taste" (even with bugs) if it will be published and I am waiting so much for this!
These are some of the times I wish I knew more so that I could be able to port it on my own(the same thing exist for nemo as well )

I hope it will be available soon!

Just because I know it:
On Android recovery packages you will find the file to modify in META-inf/ Google/ updater-script.txt
Open with notepad++ and delete the first lines starting with get.prop. Better don't try. I dunt know why I write it here and to what use it will be, but better don't.

I will most probably not try it, but I want so much to have a working image for sailfish

We have been waiting for this for some time

can someone explain something to me, so libhybris converts bionic to glibc, but in programming terms, shouldnt it simply do it for whatever drivers you throw in there, since the conversion seems done at such a abstract level shouldnt it matter?

This new release, v1.0.7.16, of Sailfish for Nexus 4 gives me more than a week of battery use without SIM card (no 2G or 3G), only with WiFi in most of time, light use every day. 6 days of use and it still has 33% of battery. So 11% per day. Excellent work, Jolla sailors !
