Tizen on PinePhone?
#1
Would anyone be interested in porting Tizen OS to the PinePhone? ( Samsung has sold some Z phones with it).  Tizen also runs Samsung TV's and Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 (with LTE).

As it happens I have Tizen working reasonably well on an Orange Pi PC now (which I believe has pretty similar hardware to the PinePhone as both are based on Allwinner CPUs with a Mali 400 MP2 GPU). Not sure how much phone functionality support is still there in Tizen though, but apart from that I would guess that it should just be a matter of getting a kernel that supports the PinePhone to get Tizen running with some functionality on it.

BTW, I am not currently planning to buy a device myself to work on it, but if someone gets me a device I will likely be able to spend some time on it.
