As the title says ...anyone got any ideas ???
I guess that depends on how far along on cracking it you are. Honestly, though nobody knows. There is no ETA. It will be done when it's done.

Like PG said, there is no ETA on this sort of thing and usually never is. While it would be nice to have s-off you don't really need it to flash ROMs, kernel, etc.
Thanks guys .....ill guess ill be waiting....its just so much easier with s off imo...

...and no I'm not going to ask everyone what's the best ROM or some such; I read the "Read Before Posting". I just thought I'd kind of introduce myself and allow people the opportunity to relive their first experiences vicariously through me.
But yea, I'm very excited to finally get my hands on one of these and I've got a serious amount of reading to do on how to get everything nice and nifty. Wish me luck!
I do have one serious question though, as far as physical aesthetic modification, how easy is it? I may want to repaint things and especially get rid of that awful AT&T logo. I'm assuming there are those out there that have tried similar things to what I'm thinking of.
Someone was asking this before, I think someone else was suggesting sugar cubes, but I cannot find the post... I'll keep looking.
EDIT:
Found It: Search this forum for "Sugar" there are loads of ATT Logo Removal threads
Dave
Hey! Thanks for lookin' out.
As far as actually repainting the whole thing, has anyone done it? Faceplate only, though.
I hate the ugly att logo, like most people. although honestly this phone doesnt look all that slick to begin with. The kaiser is an amazing phone, even more so if you know how to use it right xD
welcome and hope you enjoy it here.

I have the Stellar and I thought it was really nice looking when it came out. But since the Diamond / Raph, well ... what can I do
Dave
Hey everyone! I finally got my Kaiser yesterday and I spent all night and morning toying with it.
I'm now using HDIII and I've customized it completely to my tastes with all the different tweaks and such out there. Thanks for the welcomes!
It's so funny now, though, because after all this customization, I keep feeling like there's more I could do to it and I want to do it all, haha.
If I had known the Kaiser was capable of such things, I would've gotten one long ago.
[EDIT]
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to just tell me how to fix one thing. I probably could've searched it, which I did, but I guess I either did something wrong or that wasn't it. I wanted to change the screen where it displays the 'RGD' lines with the numbers. I thought that would be the 'welcomhead.96.png' but I guess that's not it. So, how could I change this? Thanks.
If you are talking about the little numbers in lower right corner when it boots, that's the software and radio version info it can only be changed with a different ROM.
That's the Splash screen, there is a post by pof and by -888- somewhere that will help you.

Not true. He wants to change the splash screen. Not change the numbers themselves. Its a simple flash and you are all set
Steve,
I know you have been focusing on other more important things recently, but we've had this big problem for a while here I was hoping you'd help address. Can you get bluetooth working on your latest Hero build? There were rumors you got it with the last version, though it has been so long, you've weighed in elsewhere (including the Rogers root), and the "dev challenge" with the big pot went unanswered so I figure you haven't actually done it. That said I feel like if anyone here could do it then it would be you. Shafty made some great progress, but it remains elusive. Anyway, I just wanted to ask.
Vette
I don't want to be bothersome, but this really should be in a different section or in a PM.
Not only that but you know when he comes back one person is gonna say one thing wrong and he is going to run off again. I agree he is a good Dev but you know what the Dev's we have has pushed everyone and rather have it how it is now then how it used to be with all the crying going on here. I know this will rub people the wrong way but some one needs to say it. IMO

I'm fairly sure haykuro said that he was going to post his ROM's at another forum site.

i know its GSM and all but who knows maybe someone can get the ball rolling.

So, I'll attemp civility. First out of curiosity none of the phones in your sig indicate a sprint hero cdma, even your carrier shows T-mo. Second, you shouldn't be posting request in the dev section, seeing as how you haven't dev'd anything. Third, WTF, you want someone to port a 2.3 based sense rom, lmao, we don't even have a fully functioning 2.2 sense rom.
While we're at it, where can I get a honeycomb rom w/sense?

well to stay civil as well without any profanity my sig shows MetroPCS because XDA doesn't have it in the list of carriers and i had tmobile before.
i do have a hero but i don't use it since the usb port broke and i wanted at least froyo with sense fully operational but even then haven't really found a rom to meet my needs and likes. sue me for not updating my sig to show every device i own, i have drawer full of phones, i just don't feel the need to put them on there.
and since there is something newer why not at least look at it to see if it's a better alternative. if the whole world thinks like you seem to think then we would still be living in caves, no offense and don't take it the wrong way but that's life, gota always be thinking out of the box
Before this gets out of control, I just want to say that yes, people tend to get upset over these things, but for good reason. You can't just expect some devs to pull a Sense Gingerbread out of a hat - that's unreasonable and just annoying.
With that said, I have a feeling that this guy meant it more as a polite, respectful request. He probably just wanted to tell everyone that Sense gingerbread is out, and if someone is ready to port it, it's out there - and I can understand that. Give him the benefit of the doubt.
If anyone out there is left with a Hero who can do this, I'd be elated if they'd port this ROM over, and I'm sure a lot of others would be, too.
Just don't ask for it like it's an entitlement.

I was thinking about that doesn't seem that bad of an idea
I'm happy that the folks who wanted it finally got the opportunity to unlock their Vivids, and have the ability to root and install custom ROMs, clear out CIQ, etc.
Now, I wonder how long it will be before we start seeing "bricked phone" posts here? Unfortunately, not everyone has the skill, experience or patience to do this. I don't.
I think I will wait to see what happens with ICS (and Sense 3?) for the Vivid. I know it will be a while. But in the meantime, I will just keep using my Vivid.
Good luck and Happy New Year!

Team Win (and evil devnull) should be releasing a custom recovery for the vivid. Apparently it can cure pretty much any soft brick. I believe it is available for the EVO 3D and they're working on other devices.

Thanks for the clarifications. I can always depend on folks here to keep me corrected.
From what I have read with most emmc devices ruu will fix most "brick" situations anyway. In 3D I have seen very few brick posts and we have some extremely ignorant people over there. And by very few I mean maybe 2..

I guess having one on here is frowned upon.

Lol, no one is really frowning on you, all that has really been said is what you've been stating isn't constructive...
Yes, this forum is all about making things better and expressing ideas...but in a nice, polite, way...not putting down developers for creating sense roms...
So by all means give ideas, but be constructive...don't just state "there's no developmentm" state what you want to see, and if possible ideas on how it could be done...
So say something like this, "I notice the development of the vivid is lacking here on xda, I would like to see this change...is there anyway I could possibly contribute to the development?"
I personally think xda is about learning and sharing what you have learned...nit neccesarily downloading roms and flashing...but actually learning the process behind Rom development...
I personally am working on developing for the vivid...and let me tell you its not easy...HTC really did a crap job with the phones software when it comes to further development...I have yet to successfully instal this phone's dependencies in apktool...so if you really wanna see a change then your gonna have to help bring the change...start tinkering around with the system apps...start doing a little theming...then eventually start actually developing...its one thing to put something down/critisize/complain about...its another thing to actually step up and change what you don't like...
So please enough with these threads...I know your over at rootz, there's a nice thread over there providing tips on how to build from source...check that out, and if you get something and want to share then share at which ever site you'd like...but bring a change...by creative, be productive...
Sorry if some of that didn't make sense...I just typed whatever my 17 year old brain thought of....don't really stop to actually decide what to say...
