Ok, so i began porting Froyo to the Legend this morning.
So far ok, It boots.
But the touch screen does not respond? I can use the optical pad to select things, i can recieve calls. but that is it. I need to use the touch screen to test if other things work.
Any hints?
Total noob here, so just guessing, but do you have all the necessary drivers?
Well i am using the stock rom as a base.
Just using Basic Kitchen to port it, So I'm not too sure if i am meant to add extra things to it, i assumed that the kitchen would extract the drivers from the stock rom into the port one?
I'm not an experienced dev at all, just that no-one seems to interested in the Legend so i thought i would give it a shot.

Unfortunately I'm even less experienced than you, so I cannot help you here. Perhaps one of the more experienced chefs can chime in here?
But if you manage to make a working ROM and you need help with testing, I'd be glad to give a hand ..
give me a week (or 2) and I'll join in on the froyo cooking (exams + party time).
I do think you should copy the driver files from the latest available official rom... which one 2 copy and which one not 2, that's a guess, trial and error ?
Yeah, i've been trying to, just that there are so many different files. (222)
I'm not even sure if i am in the right folder haha!
Is it the System/lib folder where the drivers are?
or the System/bin folder? Or is it somewhere completely different!?
It looks like the drivers is in /system/lib and in /system/bin the android file system tools. I'm just a n00b so I could be wrong but when I ls /system/lib it contains libcamera.so and other driverlike files. So i'm guessing it's the place to look.

Which stock rom do you mean?
SDK ?..........................................
Eh, the Rooted WWE 2. something rom - the newest one.
maybe you can put it on modaco too?
Yeah i will when i have finished, I am making progress but don't expect much as the build i am porting barely works on the G1 atm.
But it will get better
I'm also trying to port the G1 Cynanogen rom aswell, but same driver problem! so trying to figure out what the hell to do atm haha
EDIT:
AAAAH, Someone help me... I have the drivers i need for it too work, i got them from the HTC legend kernel source code?
So How am i meant to put these in the new ported kernel? as i cannot open the boot.img in windows?
Maybe you should contact rodriguez for info. He was able to customize the modaco rom. I think it's nice to see someone trying. Keep up the good work m8
OK, I contacted Rodriguez.
He says he does not think the Froyo rom i am porting will work :/
So i will hold this rom at the moment, until someone can help me.
But instead i will begin to try and remove sense from MoDaCo r2, should be easyish
that's nice a rom without sense I would like that very much
good luck with it.
I hope the froyo port will work eventually
I have made a rom without sense (ish)
I stripped the R2 but there are still some sensish things, as the HTC keyboard looks and works much better, and the top bar is still black, but apart from that it is stock 2.1
I had one FC first time i flashed it, but it has not come back.
I will upload tonight, as i have to go to school now.

i can't wait for this rom can you please make it with livewallpaper?
Aargh. I was looking forward to froyo on our legend. Maybe we have to wait for the official release, that is if we will get it. Well thanks for trying

Hello,
You seem to be doing an interesting attempt.
In the case of HTC Legend, I think that the touchpanel control-codes are different from other devices. (such as Nexus One
----
# getevent &
...
add device 6: /dev/input/event1
name: "synaptics-rmi-touchscreen"
...
/dev/input/event1: 0003 003a 00000001
/dev/input/event1: 0003 0039 8ddb05f5
/dev/input/event1: 0003 003a 00000001
/dev/input/event1: 0003 0039 8de005f3
/dev/input/event1: 0003 003a 00000001
/dev/input/event1: 0003 0039 8df305f3
/dev/input/event1: 0003 003a 00000001
/dev/input/event1: 0003 0039 8df305f5
...
----
Basically, most case of multi-touch-type, touchpanel drivers report 0x35(MT_POSITION_X)/0x36(MT_POSITION_Y) and more.
However, Legend's one reports only 0x3a(MT_AMPLITUDE)/0x39(MT_POSITION).
According to the source code of AOSP, these control codes are NOT DEFINED in RawInputEvent.java.
Therefore, there are two solutions.
1. Modify the kernel driver (synaptics_i2c_rmi.c) and rebuild
with CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_COMPATIBLE_REPORT.
# however, i'm afraid that it is enough...
2. Modify RawInputEvent.java and KeyInputQueue.java
to let Android to receive control codes(0x3a/0x39).
# Now it cannot test because FroYo has not been released yet but it is effective in AOSP Eclair on Legend.
Thanks,
k-yosa
I wanted to know if someone has , or knows of an untouched version of a WM6.5 rom for the Viva, similar to the wm6.1 that comes with the phone,at least in terms of installed stock programs, since I've tried every ROM available, but the most of them, doesn't have the phone pad with t9 in spanish, nor any of the standard keyboards and since I use spanish as my native language, I really need it.
And many of the available ROMS has too many tweaks that affect battery life, or some bugs that cannot allow the volume rocker to be locked, to mention some bugs.. I'd love to to cook a rom for my viva, if I knew how to do it, but since I don't know...
Thanks, pals!
Frank.
I think Jagan's Evolution Ultimate Beta is what you're looking for. It's not customized, and it's pure and light, and doesn't have any of the bugs you mentioned. You can flash it and customize it to your liking.
It doesn't have a Spanish keyboard, but you could use the original EzInput 1.5 keyboard (the same one as the stock 6.1 ROM). It has Spanish support with T9 too.
Download it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281
CAUTION: The EzInput version 2 might cause some problems on WM6.5 so I recommend you install the older version 1.5 only!
You could also try FingerKeyboard which provides support for many languages including Spanish. Get it from here:

Good luck.
Ok, I've tried it, and I can't get to work Manila 2d & EZinput on it... any hints? Since I've already downloaded the Cab's but it doesn't work at all...
Try downloading this cab:
http://www.4shared.com/file/YW2_fEqG/BJK_HTC_EzInput_QVGA_EN_FR_DE_.html
It works for me, and I can switch languages and other keyboards. But make sure you uninstall all the previous keyboards before trying this cab.
As for Manila 2D, try the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541750
Carefully follow the instructions there to make it work on your device. Other users have tried it and it works for them. I didn't try it myself because I'm using SPB Mobile Shell instead of Manila 2D so I don't know if it's going to work with you or not.
In case it doesn't work, why don't you try flashing the Evo 2.5A ROM?
Thanks for the support, GFX! I've finally got all to work! I've used the tools you posted on your first reply, for some reason I couldn't do it before.. strange.. All worked out like a charm after a 2nd reflash...weird, huh? Well, I appreciate your effort, thanks a lot!
Frank.
PS: Do you know if Manila 1.2 is available for WM6.5?

You're welcome!
Glad it worked out with you.
Enjoy your Viva..
Well,I'll give some feedback:
After some testing,tweaking, hard-resetting and so, I decided to give up TOUCHFlo,and stick to WM6.5's normal gui, since it Manila doesn't work well on wm6.5 viva, manila 2d 2.0 after full installing, it becames too heavy for the phone, it gives ~35mb of free memory, manila 2d 1.2 has better performance,around ~70mb of free memory, but is a beta and it's not complete, since many of the tabs don't work.
I've tried almost any WM6.5 rom posted here, and in other forums, like the PhamQuang ones (from V21 to V27), the older evolution series (Evo,Evo+,Evo ESN,Evo2, Evo2.5A), Angel Azul, Angel negro, and some others I don't remember. This is the most stable rom that I've tested, it's fast, almost bugless, and clean, GFX was right. I totally recommend it.
By the way, which UI do you use? I want some fast & lightweight one.

why do not you look here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/tags.php?tag=6.5
this Energy ROM seems very good.BUT: why if I press the numbers on qwerty with FN then only signs like (!*/ etc appear ? So I have to use on-screen keyboard for numbers, what a fail! I didn't mess with nor find any setting for that!
Tried 21916 and 29022 version of the standard ROM and it's the same issue
Can't post in the ROM's thread as I'm new user
Well read in the ROM thread that just those last versions have this keyboard bug and the creator seemingly does not have time to fix this
what other WM 6.5 - finger friendly - not too slow - bug-free ROM to use ?
I'm trying the 826X rom ... It's my first flashed rom, so I don't have much experience but I'm very comfortable with it and it's very stable and fast ... even faster than the normal win 6.5 and with much better look ... give it a try and u might find ur solution
thanks, I've already installed the826x too and it seems best (of those with sense at least) as many others agree
I istalled V30c_00 offical rom on my su660.. I tink its a good rom I cant see any bug on it.. I was tray many custom ICS build before this rom and every custom build have so many bug most importend thing battery standbye time is very short on custom build...
actualy all I need multilanguage support on this stock rom
so I want someone build multilanguage stock rom or language pack for this rom is this posible?
There are some minor bugs in the stock ICS rom, not sure if something wrong I did by myself or it is real.
1) Screen inactive shut off time and display brightness cannot be saved
2) Cant install CWM (it can, but it involves complicated steps)
3) Unable to remove the Korean strokes on dialpad
4) Slow charging warning even using 1A AC adapter
and I agree with you I like the stock rom, it will be great if it supports multi language other than just English and Korean. Of course some addtional features like overclock and fastcharging would be great.
I've tried to translate to Russian with myself, but it is a lot of work... I think there is more than one million words in the Firmware I am disappointed.
