[Q] Any chance of an EVO froyo port? - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love the speed and low battery consumption of FroYo, but miss htc sense, I have seen the theme for cyanogenmod, but that just changes menus etc, I want my calendar, widgets, and dialer back.
Did this already happen and i missed it?

Please ask in the evo section

:lol: thanks. Im actually on a hero with froyo, soooo....
Im just assuming it would be an easier port since they are both CDMA and on the smae network and since the EVO is running froyo now with HTC sense overtop.

its alot harder than that, there is working being done to port it from the legend and aria but the evo uses a totally different processor and has alot of other differences other than just both being cdma

Epic 4g vs Sprint hero Wat would u chose ?

Any thoughts
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
If you are limited to EVO or Hero - I'd want the EVO for the power and bigger screen and how more development is happening over there on those boards. Just more exciting then what we have ATM.
If you aren't gonna limit your self - I am personally going for the Epic, whenever they decide to release it.
HTC hero. reason: form factor. also, mine is more responsive than the evo's ive used.
anxiously, optimistically awaiting a cdma htc legend.
edit: i used the evo in contrast because i havent played with a sammy epic yet...

BUT, just think how responsive they've made the hero with these custom roms... I'm sure with some of these roms put on the EVO, like what if they had DD 2.7 for the EVO, it'd be so freakin fast, you wouldn't know what to do with all that speed! (well, I wouldn't mind though, b/c it'd be fast as hell and I wouldn't care, lol, but that's just me).
I can't wait for the epic 4g (the galaxy s) for sprint

are you kidding me??? we have a development thread. did you not look in there. There is not a fully working sense but the wildfire port is the closest.
Sorry kinda new to this bit will look first next time. Thanks
Yea. Check ROM manager and you will find some. Or use theUnlockr. Pretty good stuff on there too.

The only 2.2 sense ROM available is the Wildfire port. But it is EXTREMELY alpha. I heard it's going to be dropped until the Legend gets froyo since porting will be a lot easier.
Does anyone know when the legend will get froyo sense

Now they have the htc gracia(don't know if I spelled that right). It has the smame exact specs as the hero. The the only things not working on this so far is the wifi mms and gps. Everything else is perfect including resolution. This one will be finished quicker than the wildfire. check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818733

Camera is nonfunctional too. I've been running this for a few days now, and it is excellent. Fast, armed to the teeth, and smooth.
Also, Zen said he had mms working last night and will have an update pretty soon.
+1 on using search. Hell, both of them are tagged for froyo sense.

Legend gets 2.2 FroYo - whats this mean for us Hero users?

I saw an article that the Legend has received the 2.2 FroYo. Whats this mean for us Hero users? Im not a dev by any means but I imagine we're so much closer to a full on 2.2, sense and all...again, Im not a dev and really dont know much about cooking, roms that is, but this seems good.

Yeah but the gratia is more different than the Hero. The legend is basically a remade Hero with a 600mhz processor in it. This will definitely mean something
Also this helps bridge the gap closer to our own fully functioning 2.2w/sense rom. If this rom helps us fix bluetooth, gps, and camera issues, it's all downhill from there, and we will finally have our own 2.2

I thought we were running AOSP 2.2 because Sense BOGGS down our Hero's. Maybe the kernel with be worth it
This shows Legend before and after Froyo!!

We might be able to port the new kernel from it, most likely.
The Legend is the phone most common phone with ours if I'm not correct.

The real question is if the Legend can run Froyo. Why doesnt HTC just give it to the damn hero already.

Legend is MSM7227 while we're MSM7600... we'll see when the kernel source is released.
without googling, pretty sure the gsm hero has it... i could be wrong. kinda hope i am. i love the legend. id take a cdma legend and be happy until cdma2 or whatever...a very long time.
please sprint, htc gimme a cdma legend(cause the read xda all the time)

Because Sprint doesn't care about supporting the Hero anymore. They want you to upgrade to a newer phone/lock yourself into another 2 year.

[Q] Best Gingerbread ROM for CDMA

Guys,
Is there any new ROM's out with GB on them? Because I say the TastyGinger for the GSM one, and I was wondering if there were any similar to that. A 2.2 ROM would also be good, but specialized for the Hero. My CM6 doesnt cut it anymore, it lags, and the Stock 2.1 is glitchy (some lag, apps not showing, memory leak). A sense based 2.2 or 2.3 ROM (if it's out there) would be the best. Thanks for replying

To his credit, at least its not in the development forum as most threads of this extremely low caliber tend to be.
But this is still really really sad
I'm pretty sure it takes more effort to post a new thread than to read the titles of pre-existing ones and realize the answer is right in front of you.

Since there's only 1 rom with GB for cdma Hero, that should narrow it down for you.
I think you missed the "GSM hero" part of that post Davec.

Sorry??
Nice reply:
There is only ONE gingerbread ROM for the CDMA Hero. Here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864403
Sense ROMs withs 2.3 do not exist AFAIK. For the CDMA Hero, nfinitefx, beezy420 and others have worked on a 2.2 Sense ROM but I don't think it ever reached a "final," or stable release. Sense on our phones is pretty much limited to 2.1.

Umm... We don't want to tell Football wrong section. He's the man when it comes to leaks!
HTC Merge is a CDMA/GSM hybrid running Android 2.2 Froyo with HTC Sense user interface, has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 3.8" 480x800 resolution capacitive display, and a 5MP autofocus camera with LED flash and 720p video recording

i didnt know it was a cdma phone. Never mind then football. Post away.
yep, US Cellular runs on the same 3g frequencies as Verizon/Alltel/Sprint/Boost/etc.
The Merge/Lexicon was announced for Verizon a long time ago and then just kinda vanished. There are actually a couple Verizon branded ones floating around out there. It has since released on a few regional CDMA carriers, including Alltel and one or two others, but any hope of an official Verizon launch is pretty much gone. It's a nice phone, performance actually a bit better than the dinc, slightly larger screen, keyboard very similar to the T-mo G2..... I'd trade my dinc for one in a heartbeat as long as it can be rooted and run on Verizon bug-free...
Any confirmation on if it is safe to attempt to flash this?
Do not use the ruu... It could be unrootable or possibly wipe s-off. I can pack it in a zip though that you guys can flash.
What version of sense is it?

hmmm this is the same deal as the inc2 port its a world cdma phone so until someone fixes data on this no daily driver and im 99.8% sure this is sense 1.0 stil
2fast talked me into giving this a shot. Turns out it works. Gingerbread and Sense 2.1 is working on my Merge currently. Will update if I have any issues. This just made my night.
You beat me to it. I checked the ruu out and is safe to flash on the uscc merge. It will also work on other carriers but do a backup of you apn info with apn backup and restore.
How ever this thing needs moved to a merge section lol.

LOL! I'm guessing you didn't read that thoroughly. He asked could it be hacked to run on our phone and the other guy answered: If it's CDMA, it's possible. This is a true statement and that's why a lot of folks here are running roms ported from the Evo 4G, Evo Shift, Evo 3D, Sensation, Acer Liquid and the Incredible 2.
This has been posted in the wrong forum.
Maybe football made a mistake.
