!!!READ ME FIRST!!!
Let's get many things out of the way:
1. I am not a ROM developer. I'm decent at coding, but ROM making is a first for me. I followed THIS Guide.
2. I have not tested this. It probably won't boot. I doubt it does. I literally just followed the steps from the guide above. I used flex360's Stock with goodies and TEAM SONIC's FreeGS3 ROMs to port. They're both awesome.
3. If this ROM bricks your phone, causes it to catch on fire, burning down your apartment complex and/or causes Skynet to take over the world: Don't blame me. I don't have time to test this. I need to get to bed. Seriously lol. I will test it tomorrow, but this is just a base. I doubt this will even flash...
If you didn't read the above:
THIS PROBABLY DOES NOT WORK. IT IS JUST WHAT I'VE DONE SO FAR. I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT I'M DOING. USE AT YOUR OWN PERIL. RISK OF BRICKED PHONE FOREVER AHEAD!
UPDATE: CONFIRMED FLASHES WITH NEW VERSION! DOES NOT BOOT STUCK AT HTC SCREEN!
Okay, so now that we have that out of the way...
GSIII Port. This should, in theory have Touchwiz and all the glorious elements of it. I don't believe that it will work, but here it is for anyone to use, modify, share, etc. I have no source or anything from this, as this is an extremely basic and early port. This is a pre-pre-pre alpha at best.
NOW FLASHES! STUCK AT HTC SCREEN. IT IS A START. THIS IS STILL ONLY FOR DEVS. IF YOU WANT TO HELP, PM ME. I WILL LEAVE THIS UP FOR DEVS ONLY!!!
DOWNLOAD [CURIOUS DEVS/LUNATICS ONLY!!!!]:
!!!DANGER!!!
TouchEvoUX pre-pre-pre alpha v -1. Yes, version -1. 617MB. Confirmed will flash. Going to try and get to boot screen then I'll re-upload it tonight. Wish me luck, lol.
!!!DANGER!!!
I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST FLASHING! THIS SHOULD BE FOR CURIOUS DEVS ONLY!!!!
If you want to help (and maybe have an idea about how to go about this), PM me lol. I know this OP is pretty ugly right now, and so is this "ROM" (I think it is best called a "Franken-ROM") but that is how it will be until this thing is confirmed to at LEAST boot. Hell, if it even flashes without causing your device to catch on fire or explode, I think we can start organizing.
EDIT: Just saw THIS </fail></irony></facepalm>
Haha, I like it, I was just looking st the touchwiz port xD

I know, I just saw the article on the portal and was like: FFS!
Seriously, I doubt this works. I don't have time to test right now. I'm barely awake lol.
I would be shocked if this actually flashes btw.
It would probably be better if you just replaced all the HTC widgets and launcher etc. with Samsung's stuff, and leave everything else as is, but this is an honest to goodness port. Come on, which is more fun (which is safe?).
ill take that!

Curious but touchwiz is only Samsung's version of sense. Glad to see some work done on porting though. Stock EVO kernel or make your own?
Lol same tutorial I followed on my aosp port I'm working on. Oh and a question...did u brick when u tried it OP?
Edit..nevermind saw you didn't test it second time reading it...kinda wreckless posting something u won't even test though. Just saying I even tested my own port. Just my two cents.

Nice man! You may want to purchase a casket, plot and flowers for it right now. The odds of it working are some where between 0 and 0%.
Seriously though, I just followed the guide, so in THEORY this should work, in practice, it is highly unlikely. But, if someone who knows what they're doing wants to take a shot at getting this thing to boot, then here it is lol.
Yes, you cannot blame me if this causes zombie apocalypse, this entire thread was warning you that this will probably not work. THIS WILL PROBABLY NOT WORK! I won't have time to test until tonight (my schedule for today is insane), but if this thing ACTUALLY flashes without making your device explode, I think you're lying.
EDIT: I just got a few minutes to try. Doesn't flash. assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boo.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7")
...
Status 7
So, at least it is confirmed not working. Boot image it is. I think it is the bootpath or something to that effect. Anyway, I'll make a note of it in the OP and try and fix it tonight. I'll leave it up for devs to look at.
EDIT: Fixed. Successfully flashes, now just stuck at the htc quietly brilliant screen. I guess it's a start...! Uploading new version that flashes now , will do more tonight.
OP...the Development forums are not to be used for experiments. Do not post anything in the Evo LTE Development section until you yourself have confirmed that it's working. Even though you put disclaimers, we're not going to risk people bricking or doing serious damage to their phones just so they can do what you're not doing and that's testing your port thoroughly.
It's ok for everything not to work as planned but the rom should still be working without the danger you're describing in your OP.
I'm closing this thread for now. If you have a functional, non-hazardous build to put out, then let me or one of the other moderators know and one of us can reopen the thread. But in the meantime, keep working on this.

HTC Puccini System Leak
This is a HTC Puccini/Jetstream RUU which contains the system of the HTC Puccini. This cannot be flashed yet, but porting is in progress by me and some others in this thread. If you would like to help, post here or PM me.
Details:
This is a /system leak. In /system on an Android device, the core files and the OS is stored. Data is stored in /data, etc. Basically, when porting, you port /system. It is not as easy as it looks, and will take some time. Like I said earlier, if you would like to help port post here or PM me.
Update: The HTC Jetstream has officially been announced. It is $700... on contract. Fail. You can get yourself top of the line laptops with that money. So our goal is to take this and put it on our Flyers. I will post a schedule below so you know when I am working or not.
I am not available at these times:
6:00 AM GMT -6 through 4:00 PM GMT -6. This is for weekdays only.
I am available all day weekends.
I am sorry to say but I cannot always be porting. I am only 11 years old and need to do homework, study for tests, etc. Please do not treat me like a real dev either. I am a computer geek, know Visual Basic, and a lot of other stuff so I'm not a newb, but at the same time not a a person like Cyanogen.
Downloads:
So far all we have is the leaked ROM itself, here are the links:
Mirror 1
Mirror 2
Mirror 3, 4, 5, 6.
Credits:
@Gazalan for discovering the leak.
@egzthunder1 for posting this on the main page, thanks a lot!

@Football for originally leaking it.
Everyone else I forgot.

It does. I got it ported and to flash successfully last night but obviously didn't boot properly.
Yeah flashing a zip isn't the difficult part, it's the booting part
I capture the logcat on it all so I hope to go through it tonight. It would be easy if HTC would just release HC on it already.
any goodies that we see with this rom?
Awesome.. HC... WOW. Devs. all ya efforts shall not end up in vain. The dreams of flyer's owners shall come true. I guess is the beginning of a new Era making FLYER the Multi-tablet just like HTC HD2.

Wow! Can't wait... Puccini ROM ported over with ATT bloatware removed and rooted? Yes please!
To remove the bloatware isn't difficult.
But to port it is damn hard, because the puccini has another chipset than the flyer...
So far every time I download and open it it says its a corrupt zip.
I follow the flyer/express threads to check out whata foing on and see if there is anythong useful for my evo 4g express port. I can post a mirror of the puccini if ya'll want. Filefactory isnt the most stable to download from. I also have the system files deodexed, android kitchen 1.7 on my windows machine wont deodex it. Let me know. I wilk start it just in case

Hey guys, I'm going to try to start to learn android rom development, and thought maybe porting a AOSP rom fromt the sensation would be a cool task to work with. Right now, I think the Sensation is the closest to our Amaze, but it's CM7 build is lacking. Either way, it will be a ton easier to port CM7 than CM9 for a complete noob, but that doesn't mean I don't need your help!
I like to keep an open mind and workflow on stuff (I collaborate musically like this) so anyone willing to help or learn something can hop right in and I would appreciate it!
Some links I'm using for learning / porting:
Code:
It took a while, but I finally tracked down a mirror for the latest and last build of CM7 for the sensation:

hmmmm..... does it work with your amaze, since it isn't in the supported list i was holding back on using it
I appreciate you trying... But what makes you think the Amaze and Sensation are similar? From what I've read, Devs say they are COMPLETELY different phones.
Just thought I'd give you a heads up.
Best of luck to you though... I hope you get it working!

They are very different.... thus it has been a pain in the ass to port roms to it, but since you dont have to mess with changing the screen/resolution to match it, it makes it a little easier

I also just noticed your porting android 2.3.7..........................good luck doing that man may god be with you lol
Ok, yea, the internals are different. So far as I can tell the sensation has an S2 snapdragon and the Amaze has an S3. I don't know if I can even get this thing to boot, but I think it will be a great learning experience nevertheless!

Hmmmm, I'm wondering how bad this risk is? Like will editing the build prop, and keeping an existing kernel brick the phone? Because by my understanding I can ALWAYS boot into the bootloader, then recovery before it even touches the files that I'm injecting
Plus my phones S-ON, not that this means anything, because I have fastboot!

There's the soft brick my friend. Try to boot into recovery and restore. If you can't get into recovery, you will have to re-install a recovery using fastboot or adb. You can find the instructions on X's site in Amaze>Development> and find a recovery... It will be labeled "hard way" but its not really hard at all. It's easier than soft bricking your phone

Thanks man! But not needed It's just installing to the system partition and one other, but both are active only after the bootloader, so I just hold down the "volume down" button while turning on, scroll to recovery and restore my backup. No trouble at all! In fact, since I'm basing this off the stock kernel, I don't think I need to install one until I can get it booting
Thanks for the help again dude, seriously, get that screen and help me with this

Hi all.
My wife's phone recently played out for the third time within a year (D2). When they replaced it this time they sent her a completely different phone.
Well she liked my DX2 better so I got the other (sam strat) phone. I had planned on moving to another phone in the not so distant future but looks like I got moved sooner then I thought. (Still gonna get a different phone in the near future)
The DX2 community on here is incredible, and I am sure that goes without saying and everyone of you guys and gals know that! I will miss my phone and the community but it's time to move on I suppose. I wish you all the best, I am sure I will stop in from time to time to check up on things.
DK, your an awesome Dev. and I think more so then that you seem to be a super guy from what one can get to know someone else through communicating over the internet / forums. Thanks man for all your time and effort!
GL all.
Don't be a stranger and be sure to stop in from time to time. When I got my Gnex, the thought crossed my mind that I may not frequent the DX2 community as much. But I just can't let it go. Other areas here on XDA just don't offer what is abundant here. By far the best on the web, hands down.
Best of luck in your future endeavors...neighbor!

Guess I will see you over on rootzwiki then? They have a forum for the Stratosphere. Rooting+flashing isn't so bad once you learn how to use odin. It's definitly a lot easier rooting the x2, but oh well. Still stuck with 2 or 3 roms too which are all tweaked versions of stock because the radio interface layer is locked by samsung. They say we're supposed to get ICS(only reps, no official updates), but won't give out any dates or anything. Oh well.
I reccommend tweaked 2.2. Pretty awesome!

Yeah Roy I am over there. Got my phone rooted and frosted... lol No ROM or Kernel yet, just not sure if I want to go there, if I did it would deffiently be the Tweaked 2.2.
Thanks to everyone for the kind words, I will try and stop in from time to time and I will always lend a hand if I can.
Thx.
Hey all,
Just got a Rezound as a replacement for my Droid Charge. This is my first HTC phone since the Touch Pro 2. I was a regular visitor to the DC forums and tried every custom rom and hack you could find there. Coming to the Rezound and reading about the root methods and custom roms seems a bit daunting compared to the method for Samsung phones. I would really like to just start with Stock Rooted and was hoping that this all in one tool will help me achieve that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504824 Can someone confirm this for me. Also, do I need to have the supersu apk on my sdcard or will that tool provide it as well?
Also, will using CWM be okay (purely out of familiarity) once I start tinkering with custom roms and the such? Seems like there is another recovery more popular here.
Any video on someone flashing a custom rom on this phone from start to finish? That would help a lot.
So far I am loving this phone. HD screen is awesome, camera quality took a shot compared to my DC but I don't really care. Much needed boost in processor power finally allows me to play games I previously purchased but didn't have a strong enough phone to play.
I am looking forward to getting to learn more about this phone and participate in future discussions. Soon as I get a custom rom (maybe this weekend) up I will be in full force! Thanks for all of your help in advance.
When it comes to recoveries just use amon ra. Seems like to me there is a lot less problems with it. The all in one toolkit is awesome. It is were I started. Just read the tutorial that is with the all in one. That's all I did. I came from a droid.charge so I know the.difference between the two. I would recommend s off though. Not as scary as it sounds. And it frees your device. So much more u can do such as putting global capabilities to use.
Also a link for all in one soff tool kit. Makes flashing so much easier.

I may request your help as you will understand my point of reference. Yeah I am working up the nerve to S-Off soon. When I saw that wire I got a bit worried. I exclaimed "REALLY?!" when I saw the procedure. My wife thought something wrong happened. Cool, well I will read up on that and figure out which Kernel Rom combo I want. Is it similar to the DC where a rom will come with the kernel in a recovery flash package? I should figure it all soon enough. Just need to get the elections out of my hair.

Yes, if you are S-off, the kernel will usually flash along with the Rom. Just read the Dev's OP before flashing any Rom as they will indicate if you need to fastboot flash the boot.img or if they have a PH98IMG.zip to flash separately. Honestly though, I am considering resetting my security flag back to S-On and manually flashing kernels any way to prevent the risk of bricking the phone. Haven't decided yet.
As for the s-off method, don't even sweat it. just make sure you watch the video and do exactly what it does by touching the correct points with the wire and you'll get it. Not really that hard, might just have to try a few times.
So, welcome!! :highfive:

I wouldn't even worry about going S-OFF. It just makes the flashing process a little bit longer.

You mean shorter?
But op, don't worry about s off. If your worried about what the old lady says, don't tell her your doing it
My wife gets freaked out when I tinker with stuff like that so I just do it in private

Welcome to the Rezound...I think I remember you from the Charge forums.
It looks like everyone else has taken good care of you..I just want to be another voice saying that CWM is the worst possible option for recovery on this phone. Also, I'm surprised about your camera comments. I was never able to make a good picture with the Charge no matter how hard I tried, but I can get good pics out of the Rez without any effort at all.

Good to see you here Shrike, I recognize your avatar and know that you have provided me with many helpful comments. Seeing you hear makes me feel better.
Had some more time with the camera and I formally retract my previous statement(s) about the camera. It handles indoor lighting and low lighting wayyyyy better than my charge. The charge gave nice pictures only in a well lit (sunlight) scene. What I like best is that it compensates pretty well for the flash. Things would look flushed out on shutter and appear clear in the image, vs the charge where the flash on close subjects just made white blobs.
Thanks for the warm reception everyone.

That's what I meant. I was trying to say that not S-offing made it longer.

Check out my TWRP thread in the dev. If you don't want to S-OFF. It shows a great way to flash ROMs/Kernels inside of recovery while being S-ON. It's called HTC Dumlock. The official CWM sucks! Don't use it. If you use CWM use the version found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914215
