Im not sure if the dev is a member of xda
but he had successfully booted a HTC desire rom.
here is the direct link.
http://modmymobile.com/forums/401-m...ge-motosense-htc-sense-ui-port-milestone.html
and video on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhWPP6ddhE8&feature=channel
According to him
Working
- Radio (Calls,GPRS,HSPA)
- USB
- Bluetooth
- Milestone bootup AC charging
- Wireless (Only static IP address.
DHCP is faulty at this stage)
- most apps from HTC and Motorola
(most untested)
- MilestoneOverClock v1.32
- SetCPU 1.54
- Sam2
- apps_installer
- MarketEnabler
- Camera
Not Working
- PINCODE (will not be able to enter any pincode or boot normal)
- GPS (at least not seen it working)
- DHCP for wireless
Update: According to his reply on youtube " i think going to modmymobile (.com) will explain it all..
but yes, right now i got the camera working as well, leaving just GPS not working and pincode setup."
All credits goes to the Dev (dext3r).

Yes! except that these links i have given are made by other dev on another forum.
and was made possible 10-12 hrs ago only.
Looks pretty amazing. I don't know if I have the guts to try that on my Telus Milestone. I would probably lose 3G (but Fido at least has EDGE too). Maybe I'll just wait that out for now.
I wonder though, in another thread I was told:
DAGr8 said:
cmstlist , there is an easy way to retain your baseband just flash the HK sbf , then , copy paste these files and make sure you set the permissions correctly .
Probably safest to do via adb if you dont make sure you reboot ...
for the 3G baseband Hack/Swistch it 5 files from /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default
File_Audio , File_Audio2 , File_GSM , File_Seem_Flex_Tables , generic_pds_init

So perhaps if you want to try Motosense on your Telus Milestone, then you should backup these 5 files (and take note of the permissions) before flashing the nandroid image. Then afterwards if 3G doesn't work on the Motosense image, restore the same 5 files.
I would imagine Titanium Backup might be a viable way here to copy most of your app data from stock to Motosense.
Still... how in the world... was this accomplished?

no offense to all the programmers and the so called 'real hackers'
this was done using methods the above mentioned usually despised and mostly dismissed/ disregard .
common sense , risk , guts and of course a good UNIX understanding
btw there s a fixed 'new' version out at link is at motorolafans.com as well as in page 4 of the thread at M3 ( modmymobile.com)

Can you keep us posted about the developments of this?
since you are the other half of Dext3r in porting the Motosense, i sure hope people here will appreciate it very much.
Anyway, can this be done in a Telus Milestone?
looks very interesting, i know that nexus one. 2.2 is out now, so is it possible to get the 2.2 froyo from there and then load via the same method, this would mean flash and maybe the wifi may work?

FAQ:Q: What was the difference between the standard and enhanced versions of Liberation?
A: In simple terms, Liberation Enhanced was deodexed, while the standard version was not. However, since the Gingerbread update, HTC has deodexed the /system/app folder, but has left framework odexed. I've decided to just deodex everything instead of having two separate versions with minimal differences in available storage, but vast differences in customization.
Q: Why is the Android Market outdated!?
A: If I insert the latest market, it won't update on its own, meaning more work for you. The version of the market I'm using is outdated, but auto updates. It will update in the background the first time that you run it, and should be updated within 2-5 minutes depending on your connection. You'll need to exit and re-launch the Market for the update to take effect.
Q: Some of my Google Apps (such as Gmail) are an old version, but don't show up on the Market as installed or needing an update. How do I fix this?
A: This is a bug or "feature" of the stock ROM, I'm not sure which. However, it as a very easy fix. Simply open Gmail from the Android Market. From there, scroll down to "Developer Info" and select "View Applications." This will display all of Google's apps in the market. Scroll down and update every app that shows as needing an update (they'll all display correctly from here). You may also want to disable automatic updates from here.
Q: Why isn't <insert app here> removed, I consider it to be bloat!
A: HTC did their best to put together an experience utilizing their Sense software. I left that intact as every user will get something out of it. Some use Friend Stream. Some use only Facebook/Twitter/Flickr. There is no perfect combination as every user wants something different. My goal was to present a stock experience without the carrier bloat. There are ways for you to remove unwanted apps yourself if you'd like.
Q: Why aren't there any screen shots?
A: It's a stock ROM. I've done nothing to differentiate this ROM in appearance from what your carrier/OEM ships.
How to customize Liberation BEFORE you flash:
Materials
Windows - 7-ZIP
Linux - nothing
Mac OS X - nothing (note, I have not done this on Mac OS X, so I cannot support this OS)
Steps
Download the above mentioned file(s) for Windows. You can use a different archive manager if you'd like, but my guide is based on using 7-ZIP.
On your desktop, create a folder named "Test." You can name it whatever you want, but I'll be referring to it as "Test" in this guide. If you are new at this, you need to follow the guide to the letter.
Find your downloaded ROM and extract it to the Test folder. The easiest way to do this on Windows is to open the ROM, highlight all of the folders/files (CTRL-A), copy (CTRL-C), then open the Test folder and paste (CTRL-V). Give it a minute to extract the contents.
Once you complete step three, modify the ROM to your hearts content (see details below). Once complete, proceed to step five.
Open the Test folder and highlight everything (CTRL-A). Right click and select "Add to Archive." This will open 7-ZIP's archive manager. On Linux or Mac OS X, just right-click (or equivalent) and select "Compress."
In the options menu that comes up, leave everything at default except the following. The filename should be Test.zip (change Test to whatever you want). Archive format should be zip. Compression level should be ultra. That's it.
Once done, you can copy this zip to your SD card and flash as normal. Keep in mind that I am not responsible for any changes that you made in this ROM, so make sure you Nandroid BEFORE you flash.
Specific Modifications (using the above instructions):
Ringtones - While the ROM is unzipped, open the test folder and look for /system/media/audio. Within this folder you'll see several more folders (Ringtones, Alarms, Notifications). Any should files you put here will show up in the system when you go to change your ringtone (or whatever corresponds to the folder). The benefits to this modification include; no storage space used up in internal, phone, or SD storage; ringtone works even if SD is USB mounted, no errors when the SD card corrupts or is in use. The ringtones (alarms/notifications) are stored in a partition that does NOT count towards your file storage
Replacement "stock" applications - If you use a differnent web browser (like Dolphin HD or Firefox), or a different SMS/MMS program (like Handcent or Chomp), then it is recommended that you remove the stock applications before flashing. This prevents conflicts, slowdown, memory usage, and the annoying popup where you have to constantly re-choose your default application. In these examples, you are looking for /system/app/browser.apk and mms.apk.
Add/Remove apps you don't want - Navigate to /system/app, and remove any APK files that you don't want. If you don't know what app it is, do NOT remove it
Modify Bootup Animation/Sound - Navigate to the /system/customize/resource/ folder. In there, you will see two files; VZW_bootanimation.zip an VZW_Droid.mp3. These files are the bootup animation and "Droid" noise. Simply delete the MP3 if you want a silent bootup. It really is that easy. Replace the ZIP File with another zipped animation (must give it the same name) to replace the animation with one of your own. NOTE: Make sure you verify compatibility. If unsure, don't do it.
Files needed for UOT Kitchen:
Download - framework-res.apk
Download - com.htc.resource.apk
Download - SystemUI.apk
The above files are needed for the UOT Kitchen. Ask questions in this thread if don't know how to use them. UOT Kitchen allows you to change visual elements of your phone's stock interface in a way that no launcher app ever could.

Nothing Special is the fastest and most stable ROM out. Hands Down.

Liberation is uploading right now, should be available in a few minutes. Enhanced is still cooking, might be another 30 minutes or so. As for the "cool idea," this is actually just a renamed update to an existing ROM. See below.

I'm cooking Liberation Enhanced right now, then I'll immediately start playing with the leak. We've seen a few developers upload flashable versions already. I can't commit that I'll release anything on this leak at this point. Let me play with it some and then I'll comment on it.
Both 1.0 ROMs are up based on the November OTA. Currently toying with the leak, will update.
Re-cooking then uploading the beta for 2.00 based on today's Gingerbread leak. Use at your own risk.
I agree with tincbtrar.
Liberation Enhanced v2.00 BETA, based on today's Gingerbread leak, is now up. Use at your own risk.

Downloading now, Thanks.
I'm liking some of the changes. Reboot time (after initial flash) is insanely fast. HTC Car Panel now works in both portrait/landscape, however, most other apps still don't. Feels smoother than 2.2 (and I just did clean flashes of all of my ROMs, it's definitely smoother).
Let me know what you think, but so far, feels good for a beta. I'll make it my daily driver for the next few days and see what happens.
Downloading the beta now. Already a few out there, but I know you put out good work, and it's the slimmest so far. Fingers crossed, already put the new radio on. This is great! Long live the Incredible!
Will definatly give this a try when I get home.
Only thing that stinks is the cool mods (Pulldown Toggles, EVO Camera, ETC) wont work with the beta correct? Those pulldown toggles are amazing for me (Flashlight, Bluetooth and Sounds - especially)
Once that gets sorted out Ill be using your beta. Until then maybe ill flash Liberation for fun.
Great work sir.
Is 2.0 deodexed?

Just an FYI, it works fine with the existing radio. I won't be pushing users to update radio/hboot/etc. until the official release comes out.

I'm going to work on getting an Evo camera working for it. As for flashing Liberation, it's just Nothing Special under a new name (and the minor change of Car Home switched for Car Panel). All of the mods you used on NS will work here

Hello,
Here is developed a small software who work on Windows called NexusLight, which allows you to create a ROM for your needs from the flash.
He was appointed NexusLight because I have only tested on the Nexus, but it should work with all phones / roms if the signature verification is disabled in the recovery.
This is actually an adaptation of the software GaospLight (frandroid forum) I had created for the Galaxy's first name.
It allows you to remove applications from the ROM but also to add.
The software interface is in French but in English except for description of the applications (in fact it is the language depending on the language of the OS)
Moreover a video presentation is often better than a thousand words I have made a video where you see the software in operation:
http://www.youtube.com/embed/eNXXEGTUnQA
Download Link
The program will automatically update itself if a higher version available.
Warning: Some antivirus software can detect as malware.
But it is totally wrong is due to the UPX compression when compiling software.

Isn't it easier to use 7-zip or WinRAR to open the zip and add/remove any apks you want?

You don't have to actually unzip the package. Just open it and add/remove apks from there. Though I think unzipping and re-zipping should work too
I agree this app is sort of silly since you can easily do the same thing with winrar/7zip. It might be useful if more features were added to it (e.g. change the kernel, change the boot animation, etc), until then...
7zip.
One zip to rule them all.

Hello Nexus 4 Developers!
I work with Jrummy Apps Inc, the company and developer who brought you Rom Toolbox, Root Browser, Ultimate Backup, Busybox Installer, and many other root apps.
First, some background:
ROM Toolbox combines all the great root apps into one monster app with a beautiful and easy to use interface. ROM Toolbox has every tool you need to make your Android device fast and customized to your liking. ROM Toolbox has been featured on LifeHacker, XDA-Developers, Droid-Life, Android Central, RootzWiki, Android Police, DroidForums and other popular sites. ROM Toolbox has one of the highest ratings in the top 100 paid apps. Over 12,000 people gave it a full 5 star review! ★★★★★
ROM Toolbox combines apps like Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, Root Explorer, SetCPU, Ad Blocker, MetaMorph, Autorun Manager, Terminal Emulator, Script Manager, SD Booster, BuildProp Editor, Font Installer, Boot Animation Installer & many more apps into an all-in-one app!
The Revamped Rom Manager section now adds support for OTA updates!
Here’s where you come in:
We want your rom in our app. All roms will be *completely* free to download through our Rom Manager.
Why should you want to put your rom in our app?
Because your rom would be available to a much larger audience with more potential downloads and donations for you.
We want this to be as easy as possible for you.
To get your rom on ROM Toolbox, please do the following:
1) Fill out the file below with the roms/zips you want to have.
2) Save it in JSON (.js) format. I recommend using the free program called Notepad++ to modify and save json files.
3) Upload this file to your server. That way you can be in control of what ROMs show up at all times. Otherwise we can host it ourselves.
4) Send us the link to this file on your server.
5) Send us a summary of the ROM.
6) Send us the name of the ROM.
7) Send us the devices you support. (Device id not device name, Ex: mako not Nexus 4)
Code:
{
"version": "1",
"homepage": "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=...",
"donate": "https://www.paypal.com/...",
"roms": [
{
"name": "NoWizAOSPmod v.1.4.2 (7/22)",
"product": "NoWizAOSPmod",
"summary": "NoWizAOSP is a rom without wiz, and mimicking aosp...",
"device": "d2spr",
"url": "http://xeoduxus.com/downloadable/nowizaosp.zip"
}
]
}
Note: you can add as many zips/roms as you want.. just add another section right under the "rom" entry. If you need any assistance filling this out feel free to ask and we can help you!
If you'd like to use addons, optional, flashable downloads with your rom, please let me know and I'd be happy to explain how to do it.
Ideally we would love for you to maintain your own download link. If this is not possible, please contact us and we'll do our best to help out.
ROM Toolbox is going through a major overhaul currently and has been completely rewritten. We want you to be a part of this!
Thanks!

(Mods, wasn't sure if this should go here or in development. Feel free to move it.)
I love RTP, it's definitely my most used root app. Would be great to see more N4 roms on it. Maybe you should pm or tweet some devs to ensure they see this
I bought this a long time ago and have used or often. It is an awesome app.

Whoever is having any issues with the app, please email us at [email protected], and we'd be happy to assist you.
This is Nex 4 Specific because this is an invitation specific to Nexus 4 developers.
This was first app purchased for my first android device . it works flawless.
I like the support the Dev provides .
I had a problem initially that I emailed to Dev and I got reply back within hours .
Love to see all the ROM in one place .

Hello Nexus 7 lovers,
As we all know Chrome comes pre-installed for Jellybean instead of the old stock ICS browser (which is a very welcomed addition) on the Nexus 7. Chrome Mobile does not support flash (and it never probably will). Also Adobe has stopped support for any Android version 4.1 and up (regardless of chipset). But lucky for us Tegra 3 has been supported by Adobe before Adobe decided to stop even hardware support.
I don't use flash anymore really, but a lot of people still do. If you want to install flash and have a browser that can use it, follow the instructions below.
As we all know you can side-load the flash APK even though you can't install it straight to from the market.
For the new people to Android who don't know how, here is how to install app if you have the .apk file:
Go to Settings.
Go to Security (under Personal)
Check Unknown Sources (under Device Administration)
Click OK
Now Install Flash 11.1, if you need the APK, you can grab it here:
(mediafire...4940h3ixaabr2gp)
Now install Firefox Beta from the Play Store (or download the APK below).
I'm sure there are other browsers that support flash, I'll be testing out quite a few and I can make a list here.
List of browsers that DO support flash on the Nexus 7:
Firefox Beta
Maxthon Browser
Fennec (Aurora Nightly)
Dolphin HD 8.5.x (8.6+ does not support)
List of browsers that DO NOT support flash on the Nexus 7:
Chrome (The default browser installed)
Opera Mobile

Nice write up, but this is common knowledge and has been repeatedly posted. In addition why is it people post a file share sit instead of the adobe archive is beyond me. Also, please follow the rules, especially the one that says to use the search function before posting.

Considering he's also advertising warez in other threads, perhaps the APK he attempted to link to is "modified". Who knows. I wouldn't use it, that's for sure.
Yeah... I wouldn't trust ANYTHING OP posts. I wouldn't trust any of his links, either.
The "missing" Android Stock Browser, fully supports Flash. I have been using it, without any issues, so far on my Nexus7 3G.
