Dream roms on Mytouch?

I searched the forum and looked in the informative threads and didn't find an answer to my question. Basically, I have the G1 and my friend is getting the MyTouch. I have been hacking the G1 since I got it preorder so I know about this stuff. I will need to teach my friend how to do all that for his phone. But will the roms we have now work on the MyTouch? I know it is lacking a keyboard and has some slightly different specs. But I am assuming they will work on his after proper rooting and all. And does it root the same way or is it going to be something completely different?
thanks

myTouch can not be rooted at this point hence your friend is SOL. Check Sapphire threads

Just saying hi...

Howdy all,
I'm new to these forums and figured I'd just introduce myself and say hello (as I do on all forums I join).
I'm Rozza C and I currently own a G1 Android phone. I've been browsing the forums for a long time now, but never took the plunge to join, until now.
Anyway, that's about all I have to say.
Look forward to seeing you all in the forums! =)

Welcome!
I hope you enjoy to be part of this community as I do.

welcome aboard Rozza
search, follow the rules, have fun and be careful...u're gonna be addicted

Thanks for the warm welcome guys

Yeah I'm nearing the end of my contract now, so I'll be able to upgrade soon.
Problem is...I don't have any money, seeing I just finished university and haven't found a job yet! =O
So I might be sticking with the G1 for a little while longer...

^ Understand... except different situation. Got a job but a wife(well fiance) and child who suck all the money I earn away from me LOL...
Im thinking I'll go with a G1 myself also or a HTC tilt 2..... G1 would have to be unlocked (go AT&T)

LOL
I'm in the UK and I'm happy with my current network (T-Mobile)...
I just hope they give me a good renewal deal...

Welcome to XDA - you'll soon find yourself getting addicted!
t-mobile were doing the desire on an upgrade for free from what i remember, this was about 2 weeks ago though, but that does depend on your tariff! (this was for £25 a month)
They're decent phones, my brother got one recently and they beat the pants of my hero.... bring on that 2.1 update.....

Hi Rozza C.
Just a few tips to make friends...
Post questions in threads that have nothing to do with the actual topic
Start new threads, asking questions that are the top-most answered questions in the forum
Download cabs from developers that have spent a great deal of time making a product, and then post it as your own work and take credit for it
Yeah, basically don't do any of the above and you'll be okay

Yes. The Guys From Xda.cn have posted 2 videos showing it working. the 1st shows an SD card error and no wifi or cellular radio.
The 2nd one however shows all this working.
The DarkForcesTeam have made RSPL's so android can run on the phones (this being all HTC WP7 Phones) so my guess is that they are working on doing something like their MAGDLR for the HD2.
The guys from xda.cn have apparantly stated a June release, so just wait and see, You've just got to be patient with this, its a huge job to port it.

I understand its a huge job and I appreciate it. I was just wondering because I've looking everywhere and I just want to know if am going to get android eventually or not on my hd7. do u have any links for the videos ?

By the way how is that going to be effective who are (claims) that they making android when the developers from wp7 are aboutt to give an update of MANGO?
Does this mean the developer who are making android for htc hd7 have to re-start again because WP7 has a new interface MANGO about to be release soon ?
Just wondeirng either theres going to be any interference with the making of android vs the new MANGO about to come soon. Due to the fact some settings may be different from what WP7 is know to what MANGO will be next and try android on that. Confused.

Mods please lock this thread, original poster, read the Android on hd7 thread you will get all your answers, DavieGee props for your patience on answering the same question that everybody asks, Sandra really? You are going around in circles in three other threads with the same comments, unneeded really one thread is enough one question is enough, do some research.

Yes... Matter of time...

I'm pretty sure your post is about to get moved, but before it does, the answer is that Cubed is working on this.

Android Development is not for Questions or Problems
Please Post in the Correct Forums
Moving to General

oh sorry for posting in wrong location but thanks for the answer. i recently just got the revo before looking at the current hacks for it and was somewhat disappointed in the lack of them. is there any specific reason for this or is it just not that popular a phone?

The reason is LG not honoring their license and releasing the source code. Illegal? Sure, but who's going to prosecute them?

Raider x710a?

hey guys is there any root/roms for this device yet? ive tried searching and havent come up with anything... it all seems to be for the AT&T vivid...

The Raider x710a is the HTC Vivid, at least that's what it says under my battery cover.
Does the Rogers device have the same code?
Root's always been available for Canadian Raiders as your bootloader was unlocked much earlier than ours. custom ROMs are interchangeable by region.

well its actually a bell one, same device but i tried loading the ics official RUU from AT&T and it was a no go?

set sail for fail, another day, another newb

just newb with this device, if you check my threads i use to cook roms for the magic...so stfu

Learn the art of posting on XDA. This should be in general.
You asked for root and ROMs. For you, this has been available for what feels like centuries. Just looking at the dev board would have gotten your answer.
Now you're talking about ICS RUU, which is neither of those. Searching anywhere would have immediately told you that you need an OTA with the new HBOOT and the Canadian carriers have not released that yet!
Ai ya yai, it's no surprise that PG left.

ok so its rooted, and if im corrected there is no ics available to flash?

Yes.

A lot of it flew out the window when PG left. There were so many people who kept asking the same questions over and over, who didn't search nor follow instructions, then proceeding to come here and whine about why their phone/ROM didn't work. PG got fed up. It's part of why the development here is so weak.
This posed question really is no different. I can provide decent responses to good questions and demonstrated competence, but it's immensely tedious to try to respond to the same questions over and over when the answer is readily plastered all over the place.
It was common understanding in the old Captivate forum that one is to search before posting, then post their question. For some reason, the problem wasn't nearly as pronounced there, and all places in which it appeared was in the General section. I feel like the convoluted (by comparison) HTC setup is causing a lot of angst among those new to this, but the information to do things properly is still present on the forums as much as it was before. All people must do is read thoroughly and follow directions. Nobody is responsible for your device except you, so it's your fault if you brick your $500+ phone.

You nailed it, while being politically correct at the same time

I can understand the intolerance for whiners, but he wasn't whining. I know the history of PG and the reasons he left.
The quick quips telling someone to search really aren't helpful. Maybe they did and it was confusing or they didn't find the answer.
For that matter, if searching is always the response at XDA, we don't need XDA since all of the same answers are available on other websites and can be Googled.
The Internet is free and we can act however we wish. My wish is for a more helpful, less critical culture.

Same questions everywhere i look
I have been using xda for years, i never post, i do this out of respect for the devs and people who have legit questions in the tread but since i just got my HTC raider last week (i have a G-Nexus as my main device) i started to Rom and ROot this device and i have seen so much anger on these threads, brothers i have the same hate for mundane and stupid questions that can be answered by control -F-, or the search button at the top, i have found a answer to every problem i have had for almost 3 years worth of androids (G1,DEXT,DesireZ,GalaxySVibrant,MOTOAtrix,Xt860,samsung note,galaxy nexus) Just for the love of god please use the search functions that we have at our disposal so that we dont loose DEV's like PG and we continue to make these phones better than they are
lets stand up for justice in the forums
Lets stand up for clean forums
LETS STAND UP FOR SOME BLOODY ICE CREAM SANDVICH

I'm not talking about this isolated instance. I'm saying in general. OP didn't whine, but his second question posted a very simple and very common question whose answer is found all over the shop.
Every thread I've read ever since joining XDA has a clear instruction set. Never found any problems, and any unclear bits was usually cleaned up within at most a day. Especially for things that are guided/intuitive like RUU updating or CWM flashing. Anything deviating from that has always had clear and express instructions.
I agree with you on the searching front. It's just that by consequence, XDA is a pinnacle for Android development information and Google's search is not localized to the forum (though it can be forced), nor are all its threads indexed with the latest information on the latest issues, unlike the forum search and its ability to parse posts as they are made. Likewise, most of the information here cannot be found elsewhere unless heavily publicised.
My wish is for XDA's culture to have more autonomy and less incompetence. XDA is more of an instruction manual when it comes to knowing the ins, outs and modifications that you can do to your device.
Anyway, let's end this before it erupts. I am now abandoning this thread.
