[Q] Port flyer rom to View? - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

since the flyer and view are so similair what would i have to do to port a rom from the flyer to the view? and can i be pointed in the right direction?

To get started you would have to swap out the kernel and boot images with View compatible versions, change the build.prop file to fixup any Flyer specific items, etc.
Depending on how close all the hardware is , it can be pretty complex.
You can take a look at this to get an idea.

Oops, I'm sorry I read that as Jetstream to View. there are threads discussing what you are looking for in the forum already

[q] ics htc evo view

Hello,
I know HTC has sent out a list of which phones will get the upgrade to ICS, but it seems like they completely ignore the Flyer or View...they didnt state whether they will upgrade it or wont upgrade it.
Anyone know of any rumors or something? If it gets the upgrade great, if it doesnt i wanna know so I can start looking elsewhere.
Somebody with over 600 posts here should know better than to ask this question, instead of doing a search, or just browsing around for a couple minute. This exact topic has already been discussed at great length in other threads.

[Q] S3D development help

Hi everyone,
Im not sure where else to go for some help, as the best development community Ive found I think this is probably the best place.
I am currently trying to develop an application on the HTC EVO 3D for a Hospital to help them test the Stereoscopic vision on children. (so any help you can provide is for a good cause!)
The issue I am having is that there is such a small amount of documentation on the 3D code needed. There are some sample apps that come with the OpenSense SDK but I am having trouble tying to get what I need out of them. I can alter them to maybe display a different image or something, but the actual code needed to split the images and send them to each eye is proving hard to find and pull out of the code so I can use it.
Basically Im looking for any help from anyone who has used this code before and could point me in the right direction as to which parts of the code I need to extract or look at in the OpenSense samples. Becuase at the moment I am really struggling.
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps.
If this is better posted somewhere else I do apologise, I dont have enough posts under my belt to post in the development thread where I would imagine it is better placed.
Development is the last place to post this. Development is for roms and kernels. Maybe try the theme/app section. You might find the help you need there.

Sorry, I didn't view your first post.
I found a opengl 3D graphic library (min3d : http://code.google.com/p/min3d/), and I made some changes to allow it to do 3D stereo :

What do you want to do in your application ? displaying 3D pictures or 3D geomertry with openGL ?

afreechart legend issues

Hi all,
I have been using afreechart to get some charts in an app I have been trying to develop (very very slowly). However I noticed that, when I plot a XYLineChart, the lines for each data series do not show up in the legend. See attached image. It seems odd, as it can get the info about the series, such as the name, but it does not display the line. Has anyone bumped into this? Any idea?
Cheers
what is odd is that I installed the exact same app with the exact same code to generate the graphs on a phone running GingerBread and the graphs and legend showed up exactly as expected, while they misbehave on ICS or JellyBean. Oh well it seems like nobody has any experience with this library. I tried to contact the devs of this library and got no response or support, so maybe it is time to consider a different way to display my graphs.
Cheers

I stand corrected. My apologies :good:
I am not sure if this is any use to anyone, but I found the solution and I thought I'd post it here for future reference.
The thing that pointed me in the right direction was the fact that the graphs would behave perfectly on the emulator, independently from what version of Android the emulator was running. That made me think that maybe the hardware acceleration (which if I am not mistaken was introduced with HoneyComb) had something to do with this. A bit of googling showed me that other graphics libraries had similar issues on ICS and JellyBean, so I tried switching off the hardware acceleration for the chart view:
Code:
chartView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);
lo and behold, the graphs and the legends show up just as expected on any device.
Hope this saves some time to someone in the future.
Cheers

Actual Help finding a ROM, (Sprint HTC 4G)

Hello, Some poor soul posted (BELOW) this YEARS ago, and never got any help (other than the single, typical, 'go search' 'reply', NOT MUCH HELP when you DON'T KNOW THE FILE-NAME)
I'll just repeat what he said, it's the same thing i'm looking for. I just want 1080p video record on the device, I don't have time to learn another new technical speciality... I can only use official ROMS, None of the half-baked, home-brewed partial ROMS that come with lists of hands in the air, (i didn't do it) warnings of problems and bricking no thanks,.. (right?)
I don't know what 'S-OFF' means and it could takes months to find out here as the simplest of questions can go YEARS w/ no decent attention, I've never seen a forum like this one, One guy actually has 'I WILL IGNORE STUPID QUESTIONS' as his SIGNATURE.... There are no Stupid questions, only stupid Punks who hoarde info because the info TIDBIT (Small as it is, like their EGO...),, its the only thing they have to Feel Important...
I'm hoping this can be a simple double click, wait and done. It is an old phone I took apart, replaced half the innards and screen and now it works, it would be whatever original stuff it came with, I don't need any data on it...
THE POOR SOULS UN-ANSWERED REQUEST:
"Hi all. I'm new to xda. I have been trying to manually update my HTC EVO 4G LTE to Android 4.3, however HTC is no longer hosting the files. I was wondering if anyone knew where i could download HTC's software update?
It used to be here tinyurl.com/n279mpk
The link would download a 866MB executable. Thank you for any advice.."
As you can CLEARLY see, HE DOES NOT KNOW the name of the file, SO being told to Search is useless, NOTHING is EVER Explained Here,.. I find it PATHETIC that this community let that question lapse for YEARS with that single RESPONSE, SHAME ON YOU. HANG YOUR SELFISH HEADS IN SHAME. How is he, or Me or Anyone New, to EVEN KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE:
"SPRINT HTC EVO 4G LTE ANDROID DEVELOPMENT" Category, and the:
"SPRINT HTC EVO 4G LTE ORIGINAL ANDROID DEVELOPMENT" Category.... All Greek to anyone not ALREADY IN THE KNOW, HENCE THE QUESTION 2 YEARS AGO.....
So The NON-ORIGINAL category is What? New Ones? and the ORIGINAL category is for Original Copies of Official HTC Releases? OR Perhaps ORIGINAL, Means not ORIGINAL, BUT NEW? OR,... I certainly don't see any CLUES in the categories:
InsertCoin Sense, JEWEL CyanogenMod 12.1, PAC-ROM LP-MR1 Beta3 Weeklies,
NONE OF THIS SAYS:
HTC 4G 4.3 Approved APk 866MB executable formerly hosted at tinyurl.com/n279mpk (OR WHATEVER...) AND NEITHER SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD HAVE A LINK TO ANYTHING OFFICIAL!??!
SO WHY SEND SOMEONE BLINDLY TO "SEARCH" YOU THINK HE WASN'T SEARCHING ALREADY?
THIS PLACE MAN, THIS PLACE.... YOUNG INSECURE MALES HOARDING INFO BECAUSE IT BOLSTERS THEIR WEANING EGO AND NO OTHER REASON.
I NEVER SEE ANYONE GET ANY HELP HERE SO WHAT THE HELL IS THE DAMN POINT?
If there is a GOOD, Android 4.3+ UPDATE FOR STANDARD SPRINT HTC 4G, (NOT USED AS A PHONE, ONLY A TELESCOPE AND MICROSCOPE EYEPIECE CAMERA) That doesn't have strange 'rooting' (?) or S-OFF (?) Requirements then PLEASE, Let Me and the next 100 People to come here, KNOW !
Check out my HTC EVO 4G LTE Hboot guide in my signature. It has a lot of good info contained in it.
As far as updating to Android 4.3, there is a RUU available to do so. You can find it in the aforementioned Hboot guide, along with instructions on how to install it. The instructions can be found in the RUU section of my Hboot guide. The RUU is from HTC and does not require S-off or a rooted device.

Thanks! GOT IT! Thanks!
Glad to help.
Were there any other questions about definitions or specific help with the HTC Evo 4G LTE (Jewel)?
I'd be happy to help. Anything from "What is a ROM?" to "How can I post a patch to gerrit?" I have written a couple of guides in the past, and I have done work to make custom ROMs easier to build for this device (hopefully "answering" many questions for you).
Feel free to post here, in the different ROM forums, or message me.
