I recently found a brilliant new rom for the desire and nexus one.
Its called Miui, and its kind of a mix from different platforms, but still based on android 2.2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or-9T44Bt7M
It has some amazing features, and it would be great for a port to be made for our age old Hero
Is a port actually possible?
Thanks
It looks really nice, but it will almost be impossible, because of the different hardware..
I also really want the ROM on my Hero
Maybe a lot of people do and even want to donate for it.
I'm just saying...
Yeah, looks nice
I looked at their webpage, good thing that chrome has auto-translate option
It would be great to see that on my Hero.
cheers
brat.haneq
thats one beautifull rom!!
think my old hero would evaporate if it tried to run that!
So is it possible?

i was saying a port of the current MiUi rom wasnt possible, it could possibly be re-designed for Hero hardware... but the devs would know best

Well there's a guy on the miui-dev forums saying that if he'll get it booted and working it someone can get it to mdpi resolution.. but how possible that is I'm not sure.

i also would like to see this on Hero, but... i doubt it could be due to hardware like mentioned before. but, ya never know!

that makes me happy, haha
I think maybe there's a developer out there who want to make a MIUI lokk alike ROM for htc hero
I hope
MIUI says it won't do this work on hero because Hero's resolution is too low
Hello People, I'm Moon And trough my world of android have i gotten lowend devices for own use. i love them because they're so cheap and still Great.
I have come from the GT540 Optimus to the ZTE blade and now the x8,
(I kept the Blade trough.) I am a big fan of Racht and his sense ports, what i want to ask you people for, since Racht seems to have disappeared should we do what developers and friends of him do. We finish what he started.
Most important is currently The GL Drivers I think, Maybe some RAM Management. The free ram is very low. (about 40\50mb) This causes Rosie to reload after coming from other apps. this would be cool to fix.
I asked XDA MEMBER # Kenia1234 (he ported it to the SGS)
About 3d\open gl and wifi. this was his reply.
however as regards 3D I fixed it using my device's libs under system/lib/egl or under /vendor/lib/egl and of course using a CM7 powered kernel...
as regards the wifi, it's a little bit more complicated...you'd need to have the bins of your device under /system/bin and the firmwares all in order, as the kernel wants to...
hope this was useful!!

Yes it was useful Thank you. any other Sense porters please contact us.
I know a little about this but not enough to do it myself yet.
Thank you in case of that you want to help.

I think he needs a little rest...
racht said that he will port HTC kernel and that means fully working Sense rom as soon as he's back.
I don't know where he is or what is he doing, but he's on xda often. (last activity today).
And I think he's getting Xperia Ray - his post here. Also that's the last thing he posted.
Anyway, the man will spoke, and we shoud donate to him a new device if he's selling his one. To continue development. But, we need to wait until the man spokes!!
I appreciate racht so much, and I hope he doesn't forget our X8.
OH.

I See, Thanks for Providing this information to the masses.
The Ray is the best Choice after the Arc, For me, Since i like big screens.
But yes. Lets just hope for the best. the Guy i updated on, (On the op) is doing GB sense too. We should let Racht Rest and hope for the best.
In racht's last Sense Port there is a lot of bugs. I really love that rom but it has a lot of bugs.
I was without SIM Card and in the Notification Bar it was showing that i used %S(something like this) tries for the unlock key and blablabla.
SD Safe to remove bug in ROOT Apps
I tried to connect the phone to my car radio and it doesn't show anything in the phone, only the icon changed to charging, but no led, no popup for connecting, nothing. And the radio does not recognized the phone. (i think it will happen the same in the computer, i think)
3d, wifi, 3G and vibra not working, as it shows on the original topic
So this is what has to be worked on
I cannot help you so much because i'm not a good java developer, i can only understand some parts of the code, but i cannot write it. But if you want a beta tester i'm here to try to find the maximum bugs i can
I will love if someone could continue what Racht did
I am following the news.
As I have said some months ago, X8 is now added to official CM tree, you can see here :
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=shakira
So, I guess thats the end of CM story (even that I prefer tweaks by doixanh).
Sense rom depends on kernel features that do not work on .29 kernels.
See HTC threads, all new roms require .32 or .35 kernels, lets hope X8 will get a new kernel ported.
And thanks again for support

Great to see your alive Racht! And whut o:? does this mean that this rom is a fully working CM7 release like my Blade has?
And Yes, I've heard about the basics of porting sense.
Even trough you would be the best teacher.
Does this mean That Your Leaving the Shakira forums now racht?
wow! is this ROM stable knowing that it came from cyanogen?? please can someone confirm this? it doesn't have any details of its features included on it...

As he wrote, he wouldn't be developing sense on X8. That's bad. Anyone want to take care of this project?
Blagus said that we have to port HTC kernel first, but it's .32 or newer kernel. We have only .29 now. Therefore it follows that we can't have sense on X8 now.

is stable but not complete!
It´s just the FXP 030, AFAIK.
Just like how we had an ICS discussion thread, I decided to make one for JB after seeing this:
http://androidadvices.com/android-50-jelly-bean-os-screenshots-chrome-os-dualboot-feature/
I thought that it was meant mainly for tablets, but judging by the picture it looks like it may run on a phone though right?
Not sure if this will ever be ported to our phone (or any phone for that matter) but I actually would rather stick with ICS (if those are the real screenshots, JB really screwed up in design in my opinion, but I really like the task manager in the status bar).
What are your thoughts?
let us have a stable ics first...
the interface isnt attractive. looks like we have to wander around miui then.
looks too gd to b real... waiting fr release

those images are just a "concept"...
that might not be the real jelly bean...
there are no real imgs available for Android v5...
I think this is a little to far for now.
The only thing I'm excited about JB is the netbook support. It was about time they released a desktop version of Android. It's linux and it will be great to test it. We could be talking about the future Windows killer

I agree, first lets have stable ICS first , beacause untill now even ICS is almoust imposible to be fully functional , almoust beacause the developers always found a"door " to resolve some things that at the first look where "imposible " , lets wish to the developers luck in the ICS builds

We don't have stable ICS yet because we are like "skipping" a step, because HC wasn't open-source, and ICS is based on it, and HC is completely rebuild, the task of getting stable ICS is as hard as getting stable iOS, if it wasn't closed-source... if I posted this when ICS was released, devs would have lost hope...
So JB should be lot easier to do
I was born in the '90's... 1290's >
way to good to be true
I don't think our device will be capable of running JB !!!):
earlier , everybody thought that ICS is impossible for our phone but the result is nw infront of us....
So let just hope that it's also possible to port JB on our O1 after it's release....

Yes people thought ICS was impossible but the devs knew it could be done.
JB will likely be too big to fit into the system and you would be taking features away from JB meaning it would be pointless

How is it slowing down
We have like a new kernel every day. Read Chad's dev thread he is going warp speed on his progress and we are becoming the only second verizon phone aside form the nexus to have aosp ( tbolt had it because of slayer ).
So right about now, i think if i had the money, i would re-buy the rezound, finally the perfect merge between hardware and software.
And beside all that, all of the devs are busy with school , yet they still have time to try on jelly bean and work on it.
Instead of making a thread like that, i would take the time, go press your max 8 thank yous to every thread and buy them a cup of coffee.
Ok this came out a bit hostile, i am sorry about that, but we have a bunch of awesome devs right, its like we have la creme de la creme now, and i feel completely opposite from you.

Like the last guy said. I don't think it has slowed so much as it has shifted. Everyone seems to be working on soap now. Also school has started and people do have lives (i hope). It's still the weekend, get out there and enjoy it!
We are just getting like literally 100% cm9 like .. any day now. It's at 90% right now.
AOKP is not far behind, idk say 70% currently and will be 100% in a week to three weeks(total guess by me). We have MIUI, not sure where it's at right now haven't been looking. We have great ics ROM's. We have Great sense 4 ROM's. We have great kernels being pumped out everyday now. We have Fully functional GSM ROM's The dev's that are almost done with cm9 are getting into jelly bean now... what more do you want ...
oh yeah and 1-3 people are thinking of porting touch wiz over or something as well.
Edit 2: Oh it also looks like someone is working on paranoid android also hmm so what was it you wanted op a phone that prints cookies right before you get home?
mmm cookies that would be sick xD lawl
Edit 1: It hasn't slowed it has went warp speed in the background
lack of releases =/= lack of development.
And we'll probably be getting jb quite soon.

That's a very snide way to look at development. It's not like this stuff happens over night.
Only thing I have to say is if your unsatisfied with development maybe you should learn to develop yourself. That way you can for fill your own needs. Not sure what people expect sometimes. We have about 4 different kernels all kinds of ROMs, and themes what the hell are you expecting? Let me get you some cheese..
I can tell by your 11 post and 1 thanks that you have a lot to contribute.. This thread should be closed..

Im trying to build ParanoidAndroid from source for us atm, including all the fixes that have happened since the last build was made. Im learning this as I go but I got cm9 built so I know I can do it.
Antp's cm9 kang works great, I've been running it for a few days now and haven't had any compliants about it! Once Devin works on uberkernel more and cm9 reaches full stability on our phones it will be awesome. I was running Neo's adrenaline and it was good but cm9 totally kicks it's ass! The battery life is absolutely amazing, I've had my phone on for 5 hours and I'm at 72% when I'd usually be at about 30 when on a sense rom!

This community went through a lot. We love and respect our developers and their free work. We get riled up when people come and drive our dev away. If you want jb ( which i am sure is coming in due time ) then get the crappy nexus.
Dont forget, we have one of the only 3 phones on the network that can surf and talk on 3g, its a hard radio to figure but bec of out lightning speed developing , we now have aosp on one of the best hardware verizon has.
BTW, any one else think that verizon tech support are highly uneducated ... I keep trying to explain to them this surf and talk over 3g that makes it so special with our rezound and they go " yeah all of our 4g phones can do this on 4g networks , of if there is wifi and 3g. Are they retarted ???? what kind of crap is that , they dont even know their own phones ?
we should make more thread to ***** at verizon , not our devs. I would be down for that .

Hello,
Developers, I really need help to get the ubuntu-touch port working again!
After the first release of Ubuntu-Touh I tried to port it again to our devices, but I don't get them booting. I only get a black screen. I have updated all sources on github and made the appropriate changes. You can find all relevant sources and information on my new website http://danwin.github.io/ubuntu-touch.html where I have uploaded the non-bootng builds for developers.
I still have the old builds available for those, who want a booting ubuntu-touch, but without any functionality: http://danwin.github.io/ubuntu-touch.html
WoW!!!! Thanks for this. really looking forward to it
You just realised my dreams!
we need screenshots !!!!!
It's aliveeee! Installed, and right now i make some tests. It's very slow for the moment (even on my SanDisk Mobile Ultra Class 10 card UHS1 with 30MB/s speed), but is running on NeoV. I don't find from where i can make some screenshots, the graphics is missed up, the dialer and more apps are not fitting on the screen but, this bugs can be solved with the past of time.
Hi Dan!
You are the man! I supose you are the first person port ubuntu-touch on Xperia Neo V
This works on Xperia Neo (hallon) also!
Great Work... I hope you fix screen size soon

@All Devs please lend some of precious time to ubuntu for neo v
@DanWin1210 You can maybe get some help from some of the FXP team (Binary for example).
I once asked em if they were tempted starting a new project.
They weren't at first, some threw AOKP, others Firefox OS. Then I said Ubuntu and 2 (or 3) of the team said "Ubuntu is kinda interesting".
So, if you can take care of building the ROM, I think they wont mind helping you with little fixes and stuffs.
Just try to get in touch with them.

Generally this should be possible, but as I'm no developer yet, I'm unable to make dualboot working.
