This thread will always be a work in progress, there may be times when it stays static for a while due to the fluctuating nature of events if you notice it hasn't been updated in a while don't assume it is dormant.
Please do not post in this thread for support/question etc. This is intended to to be a ONE WAY THREAD. I write down the information and other people read it. Do not consider this as a rebuke to anyone nor an attempt on my part to indicate that I am "the authority on all things flyer" that is not the case. I am simply indicating that I will maintain a thread for information on all things development related. In addition Scabes24 will maintain a list of useful links in post 5. If either of us runs out space we will get a moderator to make room for more posts. If there is anything you feel is missing and can contribute to the thread then PM me an I will add it. The only exception to this is for ROM Devs who want to grab one post each after the general information to maintain an Index of their ROMs / releases, the ROM must be released to post in this thread, no announcements of upcoming releases etc.
If you're wondering why I said all this...the simple answer is I want a simple location for new people to get all the information on this stuff without having to trawl through pages and pages of posts in case there is a useful piece of information. It should all be in the first 5 posts + any posts the ROM developers use.
Anything that does not fall into these categories I will ask a moderator to delete from the thread.
Do not under any circumstances post a reply to say thanks or similar. If you want to say thanks, use the thanks button.

You cannot make GSM phone calls on a Flyer with Honeycomb, so please don't ask. If you PM me asking me how to do this you will be added to my ignore list.
Do not attempt to run any of these procedures on Gingerbread unless the instructions explicitly state that the starting point is gingerbread. You may brick your device.
Please note that at this time currently these procedures apply to flyer only and not to view. Running these procedures on a View will brick the device.

Check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Flyer
View needs a dedicated thread, maybe?
With the recent massive holiday promotion and sales of "Sprint's HTC Evo View 4G", we may need a separate thread for the Noobs who are getting confused whether they can use Flyer mods/roms/hacks. As a View user, even I am not always sure which of these posts pertain to the View.
Just a friendly suggestion to the gods of XDA....

Maybe when there is something worth posting for the view I'll do that, however for now everything is labeled Flyer, View or nothing if it applies to both models or is android generic.

Thank you for the guide!
THESE ARE NOT MY OWN, ALL "THANKS" AND CREDIT GOES TO THE RESPECTIVE TEAMS/DEVELOPERS
im just linking every rom/patch/theme/mod ive come across since the leaked "official" ics rom
some folders are empty or still being uploaded too
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/pn604kh45i2z5qk/pxaO4W1K5n
any suggestions, links or corrections welcomed.
hope this helps some of you
Umm did you get the developer of ext4 recovery permission to post that apk.?? Because there's a thread he posted in the development forums "which I'm sure you already know" to download the recovery and provide feedback and to obtain users feedback. Why not just post a link to the thread ???. Also you have a radio zip posted in your files as well but you don't say if its cdma or gsm ??? Also you don't provide an md5. You should definitely change that because if a xda member were to flash it and it not be compatible it would be a disaster. Also you should give info on were the files came from and if you have tested them or not. Also a link to the thread of were the files came from would be a nice touch as well. Also info on if the files are for gsm users or cdma users would help members as well.
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
can some give me the link where i can find the latest RUU for asia TW??? its not in filesonic nor in minus... PLEASE help me...
Have you tried looking into the Gsm dev section and searching there? Try looking first before giving up altogether. If the links are down tell the op or whoever is responsible that the links are down so they can fix them.
I am simply looking for the RUU image for cid: BS_US001. Unfortunately, even though I am a very experienced user (I was a tech for 15 years), the moderators will not allow a download until you have posted ten times. Does anyone have a link that I can use for the above RUU that is outside this site? Thanks.

Hi, I'm looking for the RUU zip for 825. I can't find it anywhere on Internet. There is one posted in thread on this forum but It is corrupted and not usable. It will be great if someone who have it would upload it and share there.
