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.

cyanogen has released a "soggy donuts" version .. which is a working donut build lacking in many features ... i dont think he plans on continuing with it but he is grabbing a lot of the features and porting them over to cupcake

Froyo legend build

The source code for Froyo was released today
I am building a Vanilla Froyo rom for Legend, and should have the beta ready for download soon!
Great news
Just a stupid question: Froyo is available on AOSP. That means the sources of the OS are available. With this as a starting point, what is required to port it to a specific device (ie the legend)? Do you need the sources of the kernel (that HTC published), specific drivers (which ones?), something else?
Thanks!
MichaelAlexanderBull wel all love you!!!
gooooooood jub
Yeahhh!!!! CanĀ“t wait.
Thanks!!!!
If you are succesfull, you will be our hero. Ohw and please put htc sens on it
This is really good news! I'm currently running the rom from Ali Ba, and I already prefer stock Android over Sense. Keep up the good work!
Great news!!!!
please let me enjoy legend without looking at my brother's nexus one with froyo
good news. cannot wait for the new ROM

I think most of us would prefer it without sense ..
Y is sense so bad? I don't mind having sense maybe not the news and footprint but a lot of the sense I think its great

I guess it will be very hard to port Froyo to the Legend because HTC devices often depend on com.htc.framework which will most likely not work with Froyo.
I'm going to try to port Froyo too once I get Vanilla Bean 0.3 ready, but this is hard work.
Sorry, not that I think MichaelAlexanderBull is doing bad work, but he simply doesn't have the source code for a few of the libraries needed to run HTC devices (especially some libraries that implement proprietary hardware calls). So don't expect a fully functional release.
I'm sure will see Froyo on the Legend though, just be patient.

You know more than me, But im still going to try
EDIT:
I have managed to get the G1 port to boot and run on my legend in the past, it could recieve calls etc, but the touchscreen problem was there.
So i'm feeling confident that we will get a good stable release working with the ASOP release! Will probably take a bit of time, but it is going to happen
W00T!?

NOT ?! You are fired!
Vanilla will be nice anyway
This is a good reason for me to root my Legend.

If my comment had made you run away and stop development I'd be very disappointed!
No, really, I'm confident you'll learn how to compile and port Froyo in no time. It's hard at the beginning, but once you get into it, it can be lots of fun too.
I wish you great success.
I would like to know if Flash would work in the browser.
That would be AWESOME
Froyo FTW
Cant wait for this ROM. It will be awesome
Will
you guys (michael and ali ba) should work together. this will make porting froyo to legend faster. =)

froyo and sense

are there any sense builds that can run with froyo, i try sense tattoo but it freezes
I would guess no since HTC hasn't put out an official Froyo build with Sense in it yet.

here is a video of froyo running hTc Sense UI

Please change thread title!
With the extra 11 m of memory, it may help us running sense a little. Esp. with the extra quickness of FroYo itself.

Froyo and Sense 2.2????

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

adobe flash on custom ics rom

Has anyone figured a way to get flash to run on hero cdma armv6 running custom ics rom?

No and it's not likely. Flash is proprietary and closed source. They never released an armv6 variant. The only hope would be if lightspark of gnash came to android. However performance would be below par. There is the "flash-lite" that htc used in sense roms but it's tight to closely with the sense framework.
I agree. We'll never see flash work properly on this bad boy.
