Has anyone ever worked on bringing this port to the Vibrant? I really love the Espresso rom, but haven't seen it for the Vibrant.
Please be kind enough to let me know if there is the Espresso port running out in the wild or at least why it hasn't been done? Is there a lack of demand for it or is it a very hard port to do?

It's the same concept as porting HTC sense. Yes it's hard. And technically, illegal to a degree.
Check out the vibrant dev section.... There is in fact a Sense port being developed at this time... In that thread there are youtube videos which the developer barakinflorida has posted showcasing the progress he has made... unfortunately, he seems to be working solo at this point in time but I have a feeling Eugene will jump in at any time... My feeling is Vibrant owners are closer than ever to having a full Sense port..

But when you say sense port are you talking about mytouch 4g or stock HTC Sense? Thanks to both of you for the quick response. I ask because it seems like the Nexus One its the only phone with that port. I tried it before on my N1 and it was almost good enough to be a daily driver.

Dude like I said all the answers you need are in that post, in addition I do not believe it is the mytouh4g sense port but the Desire rom version of sense, which I have heard is superior...

No offense to you, but I clearly stated that I am looking for the myTouch 4g port not HTC Sense. Thanks anyways. I guess we do not have a Dev working on bringing Espresso Sense to our Vibrant.

Lol, and I clearly stated all the answers including what version of sense is being ported can be found in that thread. Also, this may be considered wishful thinking but perhaps once that sense port is fully working this may open the doors to other versions of sense being ported, however this is not an easy task hence the wishful thinking...

Ok, well hopefully we get a stable port. Until then I'll just stick with Nero.

seriously, you're requesting yet another sense port, when we still haven't gotten a very functional port yet?
Lol I guess a group of dev should get together and work on it

Might be easier with the newer versions of Sense seeing as how less intrudive it is on an OS level. That said i'm sure its still a PITA.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Yes it is another sense rom.. but i actually think it would be easier since a newer version of it (as said).. looks way nicer as well
Its not likeim demanding it or anything.. just seeing if anybody would be up to it.. even tho the phone IS suppose to he better then the sgs2.. i guess the ROM parr of it doesnt make a difference.. more of other things

I know there has been speculation, and this is exactly what I was expecting, but it looks like HTC is trying to put some of Sense 4 in the Sense 3.6 update for us:
***This is a review on the Sensation, but we can expect the same thing with the similar build specs of our phone***

How so? Our soc is definitely powerful enough.
It isnt about the hardware, at least not from the ram/cpu/gpu perspectice, as the htc one v will get sense 4.0.

Yep, this is same thing that happened with the Evo 4g when it was updated to gingerbread.
This is pretty disappointing from HTC.
How else will they get you to buy a new phone?

Actually a model of the "one" won't be getting 4.0 either... The "one" without the new camera stuff.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
That's right. The One "V" will come with Sence 3.6
when the launch it we finally have drivers for the camera,so the dev/rom builders here on the board can fix the percent rom whit ICS
Not a surprise. It'll be as it always is. And we will still be able to run 4.0 after a few more things are fixed.

yes. this. exactly. we are missing the image chip for the new image sense. so no sense 4.0 for us. but without the image sense stuff i dont think we are missing out on much are we?

its got 4.0 on it actually according to HTC's site. I know a bunch of blogs and such said it was 3.6 but actual spec sheet lists 4.0. Might be a trimmed 4.0 but still 4.0.
http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one-v/#specs
Sucked that device was out of commission at MWC as all the blog's that did hands on reviews of the One Series said the V wasn't working so all we got is the lil promo video from what ive seen.
Also interested to see what exact chip it has in it. All anyone can confirm is that its a 1GHz chip but everyone is all over the place saying if its S3 or S4 based. I'd think itd be S4 based but dunno for sure.
Ahh. Ok, I stand corrected.

The only differences between 3.6 and 4 should b the camera stuff and landscape rosie from what I've read

Is there an easy way to port over roms?
There are tons of AOSP and AOKP roms for the different One X devices out there, and yet our development has stalled. There are also quite a few decent sense roms that we havent had a look at yet.
Is there an easy way to port it over? I know they use different radios and all that jazz, but there should be a way to port over the OS and keep the rest of the stuff.
Im willing to take on the task of porting over if there was some tool or directions.
Anyone?
I'd love to see some of those ROMs ported .. try asking the guy who ported over the Pokemon ROM .. Charmeleon
Here is the link -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690531&highlight=pokemon
You likely would need to port from the one xl

Yeah, so far I'm disappointed in the lack of development thus far. I know its only been about two months but I see other new phones with so many different options already. Mean ROM, is the only one that stands above the rest so far. If there were actually development going on, wouldn't the devs post some screen
Previews or something? Its way too quiet. I'll wait a few more months but might end up giving this to my wife if development doesn't start kicking off soon. Perhaps everyone jumped to the GS3

As stated in other threads, this forum is stilll pretty young. We just gotta be patient and the roms and ports will come. Or just find a one x rom you like and ask your favorite dev to port it. Theyre all pretty cool, chaances are they porbably would when time allows.

What makes the Ville C2 superior to the Sensation? I thought the Sensation has the closest hardware specs, and judging by the number of projects, it seems to have a more vibrant and active developer base. Please elaborate.
Senstaion is older htc ville c2 is the closest hardware and most sense ports here are from htc one execpt htc radar its mostly the same i dont know why dont we port from there and i posted this before and posting it again our hardware is APQ8060 but on here it is written we have got a msm8260 i dont know why

I have ported from the VilleC2, Sensation, and Shooteru (GSM EVO 3D).
I would say the Sensation is the easiest to port from because it is literally the Amaze but with less RAM. Second comes the EVO 3D because it's also very similar to the Amaze, it's also ICS and Sense 3.6 based like the Sensation.
The VilleC2 is good as well, but software-wise it's not as similar ad the other ones. Now that we have a 3.4 kernel we'll see how this turns out.
Don't bother fussing over the processor, these phones are pretty similar hardware wise as well, the VilleC2 has the edge here because it was updated by HTC. All of them are dual core.
There is another phone to port from, the Totem (HTC ONE VX). I'll probably port something from here later on.

now that we have 3.4 kernel this doesn't mean start new rom porting, please consider contributing to exsisting project by chevy called black russian once we fix all stuff on that rom, it will be much easier to port rest of the roms from villec2 and sensation.

If you read through the threads you'll see that @SuperAfnan is already well plugged-in.to the project. They have a history of cooperation that long precedes the release of this ROM.

i agree with this..reason we didnt release our own roms...black russian has all the base portings according to kernel..the main reason i released this cuz so everyone can contribute toward getting the fixes done more quickly..once we get a stable build..then everyone can start sense 5 or any porting..just not now or else every rom will be broken and incomplete..

I'll second that. The kernel still needs some tweaks. And Ravike and I were hoping that a fresh set of eyes on this would help get us past some hurdles.
There's a lot of editing that's going to need to be done on a few things.
We used the totem because the mounting worked the best. Once we better at working with the vold files and can manipulate them perfectly with the other roms we might rebase the Rom.
But for now, this is a good start.
