Its in beta. No, it cant be ported (well, rather wont as there is no point). And I might be confused, but this is not q/a section.

On the desire you could use the cyanogen vendor to build android from source.
That would be stock n1 goodness

No, its for you to read first sticky before posting here, where it is written not to post questions here, especially if they aren't very important. I, like most people here, don't wont to search for 3 good topic out of 10 q/a.
And I wasnt being rude in the slightest. Just stating the obvious.

This is not development. You need to watch your manners unless you want to be banned.
A bit of reading of the stickies and popular threads would have answered your questions and many more. This is XDA-Developers, not day care.
Thread reported, not development.

No harm done...keep min mind we can't just "magically port ROMS from other devices." CyanogenMod is a fully AOSP based ROM, if you liked the "stock Android" experience on the Nexus that is what you want.

yeah i know cyanogen since nexus ,, i really can't wait for it to be fully functional ,,
and emphasise " can't wait"

nagasumi, as dupel and chambo have pointed out, please read the "STOP!! Before posting read this NOW!!" thread at the top of this section...it has very clear guidelines about what types of threads do and do not belong in the development section. I'll go ahead and move this one over to the Q&A section.

Well, as far as SGS is concerned, CM6 that is being ported is not fully AOSP. I understand it uses Samsung files to some extent. I'm no expert but I could easily tell that (at least) the pre-alpha builds were using Samsung stuff when I noticed the amount of free RAM. But yeah, this is probably as AOSP as it can get with SGS unless the Nexus S is based on a similar hardware configuration.

I don't think you where over reacting, it was an honest mistake even if it was through your own fault not reading the stickies.
Sadly though through the years ive been on the site and at one stage developing as well ive seen some really bad mannered individuals treating new posters like sh!te.
it's no wonder XDA has lost many of it's more respected members.
On their behalf I apologise for your treatment.
the one bad thing about owning a samsung is the children that also own it. Pity and a sad day for XDA.
This was once a wonderful site full of like minding people developing together now i's a bullying playground sad and shameful.

Important ........... !!!

Dear friends ,
As well all know that kernel is important for the battery life and making the final version of froyo for our X1 .. so cant we all get together and join the development in kernel section instead of requesting all the new versions of ports .. this will prove as obstacle in path of making a complete working version ...
This is my personal thinking plz leave your opinion what you people think abt this ..
Devs are are also requested to share their words !!
Thank you .........
Happy .. Androiding )

ya i agree our kernel developers dont have a proper objectives and feedbacks to develop and our users dont have a proper place for latest kernel and builds information
I say we should make a united android development team and by that i mean neopeek.com and kovsky kernel development threads active developers to come toghether and divide the development among them selves and share their knowledge to release better ports.
we should have a proper thread or website to have a connection with the users too. we could restart the XPEROID.com again and have a proper threading and network between the users and developers so that even users have a proper place to report problems and get to know about the latest releases
I think thats the only way where we will get alot of users,there will be alot of testing and reportings and finaly we can manage to develop better ports
but before anything we need to know if developers,XPEROID.com owner and the rest of the users are willing to co-operate or not

So what do you suggest? There were many sites, even a bugtracker. But nothing was used.

i really agree what ... kerfooly said and really felt bad that 350 people read it but nobody replied with their idea ... Thought. Instead every one wants their device to run froyo

i would like to ask the moderator 4 this post to be sticky... If possible.... Bcz we would not succed witout planning...

[Port?]CM9 on Galaxy W

So i know the closest phone to ours in terms of hardware, is the Galaxy W right?
And guess what? They got the CM9 port this week.
So i guess this could help some developers to port it to our phone?
*_*
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576874
Here's the link btw

i thought it has been mention a lot of times although same specs but it is not possible to port as the mobo is all different

Yeah, I'm not thinking on getting their rom and trying to install it on my phone.
I meant get their base and develop something similar on our phone, using the same cpu/gpu drivers, wich i think are the main problem we have right now.
I'm no developer, but i don't think that this is impossible.

Their original developer is porting it as we speak, so maybe we should continue the talk here ?

If dev is porting... new thread will open
Hereby thread closed!

Go arco. He brought CM7 to my old phone (htc wildfire) so it is just a matter of time until we have CM9 for our S+.

Yeah, but they are focused on CM7 and the released version for the Galaxy W is the CM9.
That's why i think it's a important release

Did you read the thread arco68 is talking about ics -->cm9

He is porting his version of CM9 dude, what's so hard to understand ?

u guys sound like a bunch of kids debating about who is gonna build a space shuttle , this thread should be closed and deleted from dev section.

Just like a kindergarden^^

I tought it was just the CM7.
Well, anyway we have something to base ourselves to make a port now

Maybe i'm a noob. I'm not a develorper, but does it mean i shouldn't make part of this forum?
First of all, i've registered here not to create stuff, but to show my apreciation for the work of people who do create it.
I've donated to estimulate the development of other projects on other devices, but aparently people of the 9001 section don't actually care about this kind of user ( aka noobs).
And when i try to point that other developers managed to get CM9 on a phone that is very similar to ours you react that way? Seriously, you didn't became more of a man when you answered like a dickhead.
Anyway, i'm sorry for trying to help out the development of our device by bringing unharmful information.
C ya.

Your thread is in the wrong section. It should go into 9000 General section and the thread title should start with [9001]. That's the rules that were set up by XDA officials for us and our device. Not very handy but that's it.
This topic is not new and was discussed several times already in various other threads here. Ironically in the Cyanogenmod porting thread arco68, who ported CM9 for Galaxy W, has been around for two days and started to analyse out device. If you searched and read a bit, you would have found that. So this thread is a duplicate.
And thanks for the dickhead.

Better than just calling me a noob right?
Why can't people answer this way to all users, no matter if they are developers or not?

I can understand this reaction.
It's in my opinion the result of lacking our own general forum.
it's a shame that if i want to read topics in the general forum i have to use the search button to see i9001 topics.
When the Samsung Galaxy S Advance arrives does it get a subforum in the i9000 forum? if this is so this wil make things again more confusing.
And if there is a administrator then close this thread
But on topic there wil be a thread from arco68 ? about porting cm9.

[Q] Can someone teach me how to port CM to desire C cdma (golfc)?

I've been waiting for someone to post a port of cm for my version of my phone but i just can't seem to find anything. And i want to take the initiative to bring my favorite android flavor to my phone.
My phone is rooted and i have a back up of stock.
i would also like to port Ubuntu touch but i guess one step at a time.
i also read the wiki "how to port CM" and i've gotten stuck, i just really don't know what im doing and would like a helping hand.
Thanks for your time.

You need to have the same base to port roms. You cant port a CM10 golfu without a build CM10 golfc

well if that is so. then where are the roms for golfc? or are you talking of the other way around?
other than your confusing answer does that mean not willing to teach/help me?

Change the Ril? and then have a kernel which supports that Ril? @soupmagnet was working on this kind of thing, think it's a lost cause as only like 3 people ever bought a golfc (not sure that even is it's codename tbh)
Just checked soups profile, his bio is legendary xD

Have you got an unlocked bootloader? and have you got a recovery? If so, try flashing my SHTD and then flashing NOPE/Prometheus and tell me what the outcome is.. SHTD has cdma i think..
And Nick, don't try tell me otherwise. If you can flash do it brother!

Well, after hanging around here for a little while, I learned that you were definitely not exaggerating when you said less than a handful of people have the golfc and want to customize it. I have a new addition to my family, and with the new moderator duties and the Kindle Fire support I already provide, I just don't have the time to devote towards getting a working ROM for just 3 people. The golfc is cheap anyway and I just gave it to my wife because there's not much fun to be had with a phone that is only rooted and still has S-ON. Note to self: Never buy another HTC phone.
I still have a working root for it (Linux) if anyone needs it, but it's just a modified version of Bin4ry's "Root Many Android" (used with permission of course), and anyone with a little scripting knowledge can easily make his exploit work for them on pretty much any OS.
I'm sorry I couldn't be of more assistance

There is currnently no official GolfC forum. Since this is a GolfU only 1 or 2 ROMs will work on the GolfC.
Base: I mean a source built ROM with the device tree edited to the according specifics.
There is no device tree for the GolfC Neither is there a base to use because of that fact.
I have no experience in building device trees therefore I don't really have the ability to help you.
You could try SHTD (fuk u Olli <3) but be careful of bricking your device. I heard that installing GolfU recoveries and boot imgs will brick your device.
Make sure you have a backup of the current ones. Please.
If you do something that makes your phone melt or turn into a ring that wants to get melted in a volcano, don't hold me responsible.
I gave you all the information you asked for, if there is anything else go ahead and reply =3

Um, it can't be done by us, unless you learn to build from source (use google) and learn to configure RILs (google it) then simply no, it cannot be done, bad luck having a CDMA device /: I think that's 2 to the tally of CDMA now..
GSM: 7k+?
CDMA: 2-5

EDIT: Nevermind there is nothing in common with desire c and desire u, if those are the phones. Compiling isn't hard to do but requires patience. I can reccomond some helpful guides if you'd like

[Q] Port HTC One ROMs

Hello all devs and HTC One users. I've been searching a lot on XDA, Google and all over internet but couldnt find a better place to post this. I just got a HTC Butterfly S and wish to use CM, Paranoid, Carbon or ANY other rom which I can use CM Themes Engine and have an AOSP look. I had a HTC Sensation before, and loved everything I had using CM ROM.
I wished some dev here could port any of this ROMs to this device, I know is not an easy job. I already tried to do such work, but all tutorials, guides and etc on XDA refer to a BASE ROM, and my device is unsupported, so I cant have a base ROM to port. I know M7 has almost the same specs as ButterflyS, so maybe is a little easier.
I hope someone can help me, because I THINK I did all I can.Thanks :good:
--EDIT--
I'd like to know how XDA works with hiring devs to do such work, I can donate money, it will be not for free. Thanks
PS: Sorry for my bad english.

UP! Someone to help?

We dont "hire" devs. Development starts from the people that use the device. Even big name roms will not work on a device that someone on the team doesnt own.
So your best bet would be to find someone with the device, Then track down all the kernel and device source code.
