Hey since the DROID Pro was released I downloaded the Dump of it and noticed that all the framework and apps are in MDPI like in our Heroes so I was thinking if someone can port this ROM for the Hero.
(If someone wants the dump file PM me)
not that simple, they use a totally different processor infrastructure than us, we have arm v6, they use OMAP i believe this is the same reason why other other than the Hdpi stuff we cant port from most other android phones

First off, my apologies if this belongs in the Q n A, I just figured it'd serve more purpose here. So if this belongs there, I'll have a mod move it asap.
So with that out of the way, I was curious if it was possible to port the Nexus' "3D" launcher, or launcher2, whatever you'd like to refer to it as. I have the ported version to 2.0.1 on my droid, and just wanted to know if it could be brought down to donut?
They changed alot from the 1.6 and eclair's framework.
Maybe it can be done if the time is devoted to making it work.but most likely wont be done though.
So can you upload the ported version for 2.0.1? Would it work on our 2.0.1/2.1 ports by chance?

i agree... upload for us...
I thought the hardware limitations of g1 prevented it from having some of Eclair's 3D features such as 3d Gallery/and 3d Launcher.
I wouldn't even want to have this launcher I can only imagine how slow it would run.
That HTC Sense Live Wallpaper is amazing, any ports of it to Galaxy S? It won't run when I try.
Thanks!
I don't think there is. if I'm wrong someone should def hook it up with a link. lol
I know they are actively trying to port Sense (as in the whole thing) to the Captivate but have hit some roadblocks.
If it's just a live wallpaper.. maybe someone in the HTC forums will be kind enough to give you the .apk for it?
But... like everything Sense related it is probably not a standard application and completely proprietary.
Yeah, it needs the framework. But I tried porting that, still doesn't run. Somehow they managed to port it to the Nexus One CyanogenMod ROM, but that APK doesn't work for the Galaxy S.
Hi guys..today I saw very exciting video looks like below.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jr1A8h7OVA
Some people say that it is ios, but others think it is a another theme.
They say it is miui rom (refer http://www.miui.com)
miui rom is chinease rom until now(they don't have any plan to other language),
so I don't understand it.
However, when I see the video, it is very fast and has good function like ios
whether it is ios or not.
So, I want to know is it possible to install ios to htc vogue?
If it is possible, I really hope to see it. But, although it is not possible, is it
possible to execute same function ( moving and deleting icon like ios : shaking ^^)?
If someone know this, please let me know it.
Thanks and sorry for my poor english.
Nope!
Android can only be ported to the vogue, because it is opensource and Ios is a lot of things but NOT opensource. We would have seen a port of WebOS even sooner, because it is also linux based than Ios, but WebOS also isn't opensource so....
Maybe??
Okay I doubt any of us Dev's would even think about porting Ios to the Vogue and no one that I know of has every gotten IOs to run on any device but an apple device. It is definetly MIUI.
I will take a look at possibly porting MIUI or a simplified version of it to the Vogue/Kaiser/Polaris.
you wont see a miui rom for vogue either, since its all compiled for arm v7 processors which isnt what we have (hero is in the same boat)
I am creating an MIUI theme from modded launchers and a miui icon pack and a bunch of resized apks from the hero forum
Thank you so much and I am look forward to see it

Wow!! That' s great.. I hope to see it. Cheers!!
It is a chinese version android system based on original Android 2.2
It seems that it doesn't support Vogue now.
The MIUI .apks decompile nicely with apkmanager, then they need to be edited for the vogue/kaiser/polaris screen and recompiled for arm v4 (is it v4 or v5?)

Here's an idea,
With all the hype and excitement of the successful WP7 OS, many apps are being made for android phones to copy the look of WP7. One of the best launchers in the market based off of wp7 is Launcher7. It has good customization like change the tile colors, Background, option to have a wp7 style status bar, etc. And there are apps being made to duplicate the look of the music player app, contacts app, Photos app, etc.
What i am proposing to u developers is to make a WP7 rom based off of cm7 and using these look-alike apps to replace the stock apps. It would be very pleasing to the Sprint hero and the android community.
its not possible all the win7 devices are hdpi so nothing would be compatible with the hero witch is mdpi however theres as good alternative home launcher called launcher 7 i believe and theres a couple of themes floating around as well.

Bah, it would just be png resizing. A fair amount of work, but not impossible.

That's actually not a bad idea, but it wouldn't really be a ROM, since CM7 is the ROM. If it's just using the launcher and some other WP7 apps, all it would need to be is a flashable zip to put the apps in /system, the user would just have to remove the stock apps. And yes it would be a lot of png and 9png work, but could be done. Of course if the hdpi-mdpi converting was done, each user could also just use the WP7 apps they like, moving them into /system and deleting apps with whatever method they like.
The point is i want to replace stock apps with wp7 themed apps as much as possible. Also shouldnt apps be made for both hdpi and mdpi? cuz some apks i see when i look in them to mod some parts of it theres a hdpi folder and a mdpi folder.

Sure, if you are going to run apps on a hdpi device. For just the Hero, no, you wouldn't need to, and you could probably delete the hdpi folders to save space.

Delete them using 7zip while keeping everything in a apk file so it stays signed? You know what? This encourages me to start getting into android development, I need to figure out how to use androidSDK.

Saw this site the other day, they started a project called WP7Android and I saw that they are gonna start development for Roms for the "popular devices", wouldn't the hero be popular? Even though its outdated, it was the first android phone to have HTC Sense. And it seems like our hero is still pretty popular here at xda-developers especially after it being out for 1.5 years. I will be watching this site for info for cdma hero.
