First things first, you may or may not be aware of me.
I am the developer that brought VillainROM to the HTC Hero. A Sense UI 2.1 rom, that I've been working on since January (click my link for info).
Anyway, two or three Tattoo owners have contacted me recently to ask if I'll create a rom for you guys.
Well, the good news is, I have decided that my future donations are going on a HTC Tattoo, so that I can help out this community.
The purpose of my post, is that I am looking for a Tattoo, and if any of you know of anyone that's selling one, I'm looking to buy one as cheaply as possible.
I don't care if it has a cracked screen, and the case is scratched to bits... as long as it all works. I will not be using it as my daily phone, I just want to get a rom out there for all the Tattoo users.
Anyway, I have £52 in donations right now, and I think I can buy one from ebay for £130, so I'm a fair way away. If anyone knows of anyone selling one cheap, regardless of condition... please PM me.
Thank you in advance.
Nice News for all Tattoo User.
Thanks in advance.
All the Best.
wow great news. going to get a credit card and donate some bucks
it'll be great to have 2.x

Good idea. I've added you to my twitter, so I'll let you know if there's any worth mentioning.
I got mine from the UK for about 160GBP, it was supposedly locked to Vodafone UK but I flashed the RUU ROM onto it and volia, no more Vodafone branding. My australina optus SIM worked fine too!
Gotta love GBP and the exchange rate...

My very good friend ather (ather90) is looking to buy a Kaiser (any variant) so that he could cook on it. If you have any reasonable offers (hopefully lower than 150 is what he's looking for), please either PM me or him. I know many of you have moved to other devices and have your devices laying around, so if you're interested, let him know. He's in Bahrain so you'd have to be able to ship international.
He would've posted this, but he thinks i'm more known here and wanted me to do it
LOL Thankx Bro, yes guyz im looking for a Kaiser, i dont care about the condition, the important thing is that it should be able to flash ROMs, the rest is no big for me..
Looking forward to cooking with the Kaiser People too
I just PM'ed him =)
I have 1 he may be able to use.Cosmetically its not the prettiest, but it functions 100% ( as its the one I use every day ). Also, I have one refurb that is like new Im looking to get a tad more for so I can recoup a few of my spent dollars. I think im wanting to get a new Fuze
thx to pyraxiate, i have found my next Device, aka Kaiser
Topic Closed
If anybody has a Tilt for sale that would like to sell it for a good cause, please PM me. Looking for one in the $100ish area or less.
Kareem which kitchen do you prefer to use when you cook for the kaiser? Which kitchen do you recommend for beginner rom cookers?

Lol, kind of random in this thread. Anyhow, i use a combo of a lot of stuff. I finished uploading my kitchen yesterday (around half a gig) and i'll be releasing it soon so you and everybody else can use it.
Additional detail:
-Would like the Tilt to be in good condition and everything working.
-Doesn't matter where it's coming from.
-Payment via Paypal only
Howdy all,
I've ordered a Motorola Droid and it'll be curtains for my HTC Tattoo Android development.
What does this mean? I'll still be an AzusaROM developer. However, I won't be hovering around the Click Android Development much any more.
To the other developers: Don't give up. Your work is awesome, and really shows what the Tattoo can do. HTC should learn from our ROMs, we don't want all the Sense UI gloss and crappy unoptimized kernels!
To my AzusaROM users: You are more than welcome to use AzusaROM as a starting base for your Android ROMs. Just add my credit line like "Based on AzusaROM by Coburn64" in the credits.
To my friends and foes: A big thank you for all your help and support over the period of time I've been a Tattoo developer. Keep on churning out those ROMs, make the Tattoo shine and burn out that NAND chip!
For now, I bid you farewell. If you see me around, say Hi... Hit me up on Twitter (it's in my sig) and we'll chat.
Take care and see ya,
Coburn.
Sad to see another one move away from the tattoo, but I can understand it. So I will stay here, waving with my tattoo and remember the good old times with mainfram3, you and the others that were involved in kicking HTC's ass the first time by finding a way to root our phones
Have a lot of fun with your new motorola!

I also find it sad that a very good ROM dev is leaving us - i also thought buying a Droid (in Germany it is named Milestone), but I moved away from these thoughts as I'll either buy a Samsung Galaxy S or wait until the Droid X will be coming to Europe hopefully
Anyway, thanks for your hard work and I hope that you will have anice time with your new toy
Regards
bye bye and good uck with your ner an-DROID!
Goodbye. This is sad I'm gonna have to buy another phone at some point...
Thanks for your work!
To Coburn64
Thank you, Coburn64 !!!!!
Let me 1st say a huge thank you to dzo and all the devs I have been following the vouge andoid from .9 - 2.2 from sd loading to nand flashing, from having to boot data in windows defore booting in to android, from the bule keyboard to rouge tools, and it has been a hell of a ride. The vouge was my 1st smart phone and I hated wm6 but android open up new doors, and hacking became a way of life. Im sad to say I was always in the background chicking for the next update, and never more then an end user. But everyone here always made me feel welcomed. I will miss my vouge thank you all for never letting it die and taking it places I never dreamed. I will miss all of you the most
however all things must come to an end, and im moving on with my new toy. I just picked a samsung galaxy s and will be joining that group. Thank you all again for last 2 years
Nate
Can we get a hip-hip hooray?
It's alright, boy. Some day most of us will move to another device. By the way, how did you get your Samsung Galaxy S? I want one used and cheap
Welcome to the sgs club

Jamezelle, congrats on the modship!
I must say, going from my tilt with 2.2 to the sgs with 2.1 was a little bit of a disappointment but it's a great phone. Although I wish the community was as great as this one was.

hey Mssmison are you doing any development for SGS
i have the Verizon Fascinate and i know you are not in the US but i was hoping we might have a developer with you kind of back ground
if you bo build a Rom, will it work for Verizon (crosses fingers), let me know if you need any testers
got to dump this touchwiz crap they even build "bing" in to it
i never though i would see the day where "bing" would be the default search on an android
its so odd to go from 2.2 on my vogue to 2.1 on my SGS
that is why i will miss this group
everyone here worked so hard and got out updates so fast i think this is the best group on xda

i agree so that means we need to make it great
i just wish it was all one group because having it broken up by US carrier seams point less it would be easier for everyone to work together if it was one group
if you star developing roms and you need a tester for Verizon Fascinate let me know would love to get the SGS group working as well as this one did

i got my SGS from Best Buy in the US
and it was Free!!! which is the biggest reason i got this phone
Best Buy is running a deal where every Friday for the month of Oct. they are offering a different phone from each US carrier for free with a new 2 year contract
my contract with Verizon ended months ago and just like you i was waiting for a great deal because i was not going to pay $200 for a new phone when i had my vouge that worked great
I've also been following the development here. I am so very thankful for everyones hard work towards making the vogue as up to date as it can be. I last ran Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 [Deodexed] [RLS15] before my phone broke. Somehow the charger I used at work fried the thing and I had to move on. I now have an xperia x10a. I have some mixed feelings about the thing but I guess it is upgrade enough. Anyway. Thanks again. I will still keep reading most of the stuff here on the vogue. That thing was pretty good to me.
when i see posts like this it saddens me because i know there is one less user to continue the legacy of the 6900. however it gladdens me that individuals will keep up with technology.
brings to mind a saying i got from my dad... all technology gets out dated - at that point we can chose to keep it alive for something else, or toss it.
he made that comment to me when my 486box turned Unix bit the big one via lightning strike.
good luck on your new journey sir- congrats on your new technology- may it suit you well.
newtoroot is willing to develop for us if we donate a device to him. He said he we will get the same roms that he has made for the HTC Rezound (Sense4.1ICS, Sense4.5ICS, Sense4+JB), beginning with 4.1 and making his way through those roms.
I will be taking donations at the link below. As people donate, I will update this post accordingly to show every person that donates and how much they donate to make it as transparent as possible.
Once we have enough donations (hopefully within a week or two), I will go ahead and buy a HTC Vivid off of ebay (with help from you guys on choosing one) and send it to newtoroot.
Donations to date (1/8 morning): $48
htcvividnoob: $40
davebegue: $8
Interesting I'll see how much vivid's are going for on ebay.
I'm in for it let us know!!

I know people are working on getting a Sense 4.1 ICS 4.04 ROM for the HTC Holiday line, but out of curiosity would there be any interest in gathering donations and purchasing a HTC Vivid for newtoroot? He is willing to develop for us if we donate a device to him. It would be pretty awesome to have Sense 4+ with JB as an option. Trying to see how much interest there would be for this. I assume the prices of the Vivid have gone down significantly, but haven't tracked them recently.

Hi newtoroot,
I noticed you made your way to the AT&T One XL and powered through it as usual. Have you considered possibly taking a look at the HTC Vivid and seeing if it's possible to port one of your amazing ROMs to that device by any chance?
Thanks!

I can take care of handling donations and buying and sending him the device. I'm a little busy today but tomorrow I'll take a look at setting up my paypal account for donations and will post more details then. If someone wants to find one on ebay that looks like it's in good condition for a decent price in the meantime that would be great. I've seen some on craigslist for around $160 but from what I understand ebay is a safer route since there is some accountability in case of blacklisted ESN (swappa does not have any HTC Vivid's listed currently). Once we know roughly how much it will cost we can see how many people are interested so we can figure out how to split the bill.
I love to see jb sense 4 on vivid
Please, if someone can do this will be fantastic...:good::laugh:
why not just see if someone can port a sense 4 rom? we just have to ask the dev hell some even put they dont care if you use their rom we just have to port from the sensation

Devs of vivid tried to port it from various ways, but they failed. Even if sense 4 roms got ported from sensation to vivid, making RIL work would be so much difficult.
Speaking of sense 4, I heard that the developer of sense 4 rom, chun has suffered from too many request PMs. Some of them were even mistranslated to Korean with google translator. He was really annoyed. Anyway, he said that the release will come soon with Leedroid tweak and much stabilzed kernel. Please, if you want to see the first sense 4 rom for vivid, let's thinks that he has his life. It will come eventually.
p.s. : He is in his vacation. He said he is enjoying skiing.
p.p.s. : However, porting sense 4+ would be different story. It is now JB, and therefore, it needs so many different drivers, and modification of framework. Even if we port sense 4+ roms to our vivid, and make it booted, RIL would be broken again.
On the bottom line, there is a saying that 'the more, the better.' I also hope newtoroot comes to our vivid, and show us some light.

i am sorry to hear his pms got blown up. I mean if we have that sense 4.1 rom couldn't we get another sense 4.1 rom without venom tweaks and swap the frameworks? like miui? I can try just need permission to use a rom. I know everyone has a life I am against bugging and rushing ppl I would just like to try in my free time

this is good. if he needs any help he can always ask us on here. it will be okay since we will not be using those tweaks
Posted an update in my first post on this thread. Donations open, let's see if we can make this happen this time around.
If no more donations come in within the next few days I'll be pulling the plug and returning the donation. So far only one person has shown actual interest.
Just wait for chun to be finished with his rom. get a dev to message him and ask to use his source and build a jellybean rom from it. shouldnt be that hard, if RIL is working, i cant see how updating it to jellybean will break it, it still uses the sense framework.
Donations closed and are being refunded. Hey at least it was given a shot.
Ah dammit
I just found this thread. The Vivid (well Velocity) is currently going for US$190 new here just now, branded to Telstra (so 850mhz 3g) but carrier unlocked. Is that any help?

Well considering that the total amount of donations (minus what I was going to put in) was $8, I kind of gave up on it. I'm not going to donate $180 myself (I was planning on stretching myself, but not thaaat much).
I think it would be epic to have newtoroot dev for this device. I don't think we'll get JB Sense (4+ or 5), at least not for a year plus. As cool as it is that WC is getting a 4.1 release ready, I'm not aware of any plans past that.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out finding some available ROMs for HTC One X9. Im new to this website. Im really interested in CyanogenMod, is there a build for HTC One X9 from CyanogenMod? Are they even onto creating one?
I thing because of the mediatek there will be no customroms for this device,a customkernel,too!??!But its a nice phone from HTC,is it worth to buy it?I´m using a Note 3,damned good after 3 years now,so how is it,is the X9 much better than a note 3?
One of guys in China has customized a third-party rom for X9, but it's not free.
I want to update my rom

This is bad, no support from HTC too , haven't received a single os update on this one and no custom rom available too. Fake promises by HTC . Wasted my money on this one.
Hello everyone
I know this is out-dated but any updates on the subject would be much appreciated by me and the whole community I believe.
Have a nice day / good night.
So I found the ROM that Chinese guy had made, and I don't see any payment request or something like that; just the need to make an account and have an invitation code to the website. If anyone could post something helpful about it, I and the whole HTC One X9 community would be very thankful
Have a nice day / good night!
Here's the link to that ROM: https://bbs.fsylr.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=800&highlight=MYROM+1.01
and there is a patch for it "named MYROM v2.1".
By the way, THANKS A WHOLE LOT to @aj20010319 for helping me along the way to find the new link and to try to download the ROM in numerous methods All credit goes to him and the original developer
