For this I guess Nokia or precisely HMD Global needs a lot in their account. For instance, Blackberry did try a similar thing to revive their own home grown OS , BB 10 but owing to lack of funds and app base like iOS and Android, it lost the plot.

The Meego OS will likely vie for market share with a number of Linux-based tablet OSes such as Google's Android. Canonical in the past has said it would come out with a version of the Ubuntu OS that will work on tablets. Apple's iPad is driving the burgeoning popularity of tablets, research firm IDC has said.

So, for nokia to revive Meego, it will take a lot. Firstly, their Android launchs should get them back on track or at least enable Nokia to re-enter market on their own. They just can't depend upon only royalties which they’ll get from HMD Global.
