Ok, this will seem noobish but I do understand what I'm talking about.
Now that we have the Sense dump from Magic devices does that mean that we can get a Hero ROM with bluetooth. Also, do the Sense dumps have a new kernel? If they have a new kernel then we will probably have to wait for the source of the new kernel to get bluetooth correct?
Am I insane? Lol do I make sense (no pun intended) here? I'm just hopeful for BT is all
okay nevermind, they just released the htc magic 32a sense update in taiwan!!

Couple of days ago HTC relased Magic Update which includes Sense UI. It's available at http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=267&cat=2&dl_id=862
Is it possible to port it to G1 and create a hero-like rom with working BT?
This would be great.
I would love to see a colaborative effort from the developers on this because the two phones are so closely related. This should be a relatively easy port after changing out the kernel. Here's hoping people like WG, Jubeh, Cyan, King, and the rest get involved.

This is in regards to the HTC branded Magic. Magic has a 32a board. This wont work because the MT3G/G1 are 32b.
Since it's possible to do this: [TOOL][EBI1/32A] MAGIC Port (PORT & USE ANY 32B ROM ON YOUR 32A PHONE!) [18-12-09] forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=601033 maybe it would be possible to do it the other way 32A->32B and then port it to Dream

The 32A also has 288MB ram & 512MB ROM which is found in the Magic and Dream has only 192MB ram and 256ROM. A full Sense Build can't be used and BT will never work on a sense rom.The HTC Hero has the Sense UI which is found on all hero roms here.The only diff is the boot screen on the magic which is a large android that moves. It has been ported already but will never run smooth on a dream cause of HW limitations.
The quickest SenseUI I've seen is the espressoUI. I have some pretty high hopes for it. And I looks great!
well as of now the only way i know of installing it is through HTC Sync. in other words, i can't find an update.zip to unpack, so we need system dumps.
rooted stock rom available
CursorDroid already posted a rooted stock rom in the sapphire development section for 3.05.401.5 rom. Should be much easier.

I love sense roms like espresso on my magic 32b but non working BT keeps me way from it (use this on my car). Saw the posibility of working BT with a 32a radio & spl but a few bricked magics and non working at all sense roms...
I know isn't the same hardware but: is it impossible to fix it for the developers ?

The version from HTC page was posted at forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5416486&postcount=8
additionaly:

includes:
recovery.img

boot.img

rapidshare.com/files/338878481/rom.zip
includes:
radio.img
hboot.img
boot_special.img
Moved this to Q&A where it belongs.
Also, the answer is no. The Magic's getting the update are the 32A's which are closer to the Hero in hardware than to the G1's. So you'd still be in the same boat you are in with current Hero ROMs.
this is pointless
its odexed and is cupcake

That really doesn't make any sense, the hero hasn't had android ported to it, It has had benhams .29 kernel and the now released froyo 2.2 source compiled for it. The only device with 2.2 is the nexus one so if anything it would be ported from that!
I wouldn't expect froyo to be compiled and working on the topaz as a usable os for a long time. The hero can hardly handle it without overclocking.

Bull****, Froyo is designed to be many times faster and as for the rest, there are only minor updates. The only thing i would expect is a BETTER os for topaz and other low-end devices.

Can anyone post camera.apk from 2.1 hero update or camera.apk from sense 2.1 with full working camera and camcoder on htc magic(problably if work on hero workfor magic) because i haven't fast internet connection and i can't download a full firmware onli for 1 application... Thanks! And sorry for my bad english..

Wrong. The camera needs htc sense frameworks, so It will not work. Maybe with heavy modification someone could get it working on the magic, but your much better off asking in magic section for that. All the devs here are hero devs, not magic devs
Ok but i have a legend 2.1 rom on it with all sense 2.1 frameworks so probably it works...Because the capera.apk now i have, the prewiew of captured photo not work,zoom not work,cideo of camcoder not work audio and zoom...
Well, whatever. Here is the camera from the latest villainROM. Its not from the legend, so I cant be sure it will work. I don't have any legend roms around, but I can get you one and rip the camera from that if you need it.
Ok thanks! But how i add this new camera i've tied to push to /data/app_s and to /system/sd/app_s but i don't find any htc camera application...
Well, as far as I know, it needs to be installed to /system/app/
If it still doesnt work, ask and Ill dig out an old villainrom with a legend base, see if thats any good
can you post me the htccamera.odex?
hmmm... sorry, all the roms these days are deodexed, I wouldnt know where to find that
I know right now everyone is messing with froyo 2.2 rom build out but i wanna know how many variations of froyo are out currently and what people are woprkin on ??? I also wanna know if anyone has seen or heard about sense 2.2 and if anyone is planning any new roms ....KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ALL
Needs moved to Q&A
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Agreed needs to be moved to Q & A section, but to answer your question there is only one base build of 2.2 right now the one that darchstar built from the ground up. So no sense 2.2 for the hero yet. But the evo is getting their 2.2 upgrade with sense so you never know, it could be on the horizon or it might not... Just gotta wait and see.
2.2 Sense has been released by HTC, if they can resize everything (xml and graphics) it should work, I don't know how all those resized icons will look, though.
What about sense from the incredible?
Sent from my HERO200
u guys r such n00bz . we can't port an htc evo rom cuz its optimized to run on snapdragon armv7 arch. it will never boot with those libs. our hopes for a 2.2 sense rom would be a froyo legend rom, or a froyo espresso rom, as those both have libs optimized for armv61/armv5te
We have to wait for it to come out on a platform similar to ours, with a arm v6 (iirc) processor. With the libs for the armv7 cpu, it would never work.
Maybe

No. But, I'm assuming a Wildfire port would be possible, when it gets a froyo update

Should be near the top of the developers forum "miui super rom roobs linked" or something like that. Its not ics though its a gingerbread Rom that's slowly implementing the ics framework into its build. So far you won't notice any differences in the ui but its a good start as every new version released will contain more and more of the ics functionality, but for now there is no final release of ics and no stable build, so if you don't know what your doing I wouldn't reccommend this Rom... yet.
Pardon my lack of knowledge, but i dont understand there are different sense versions with roms. Do some like older sense than the newer ones? And why...

mostly people like the newer sense. its like going from froyo to gingerbread. depends on you...people generally like new things.
in case of sense....cosmetic changes are more.
Stable but not beautiful:
CM7 (or nightly)
Beautiful but a little bit unstable:
Sense 3.0 / 3.5 ROM
