Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone knew of any ROM development taking place for our device?
Whilst an official ICS update has been confirmed by HTC, it'd be awesome to see CM/MIUI/AOSP some time in the near future.
If anyone could shed any light on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Jim

Yeah but I don't believe in HTC RUU Update Announcements anymore... They said ICS is gonna on XL, but who knows when...?
I'm gonna count on Capy and his team...
Btw, there are 1 or 2 Custom ROM has made for this device including the famous RCMix3D Runnymede one
Capy does seem to be the only dev releasing custom roms at the moment but I still have faith in other devs! I'm waiting for roms such as litening rom that was released but discontinued on the galaxy s2

Be patient fellas, when the Desire S first came out, I worried with lack of development, but soon the device will become popular, and you will get great dev support..

Time will definitely tell. Admittedly, I'm a huge fan of MIUI so if it became available that'd be awesome

Well capy has said he will look into getting MIUI on the XL...
Would love to have a go at it myself... but unfortunately I wouldn't know where to start
Have a crack using dsixda's kitchen at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
the hardest bit is trying to figure out the edify file. so you'll need this, exactly as it is, including the blank line at the top:
Code:
# HTC Sensation XL
change_mnt=yes
param1=ext4
param2=EMMC
param1_sdcard=vfat
param2_sdcard=MTD
sys_mnt=\/dev\/block\/mmcblk0p25
cache_mnt=\/dev\/block\/mmcblk0p30
boot_mnt=\/dev\/block\/mmcblk0p22
data_mnt=\/dev\/block\/mmcblk0p29
sdcard_mnt=\/dev\/block\/mmcblk1p1
apart from that, read, read and read some more about rom cooking, removing apk's etc. once you've done a few ones where you have customised stuff, you might be able to go on to more crazy projects like porting and the rest.
for now, i'm just working my way through the in's and out's of my first rom...just for me, so i can get my head round it. Maybe if i have time and the inclination, i might release one later on once i've got much better at it, but it'll not be anything as good as Capy's stuff...He knows what he's doing.....I don't!
I'm looking for a new device, and rhe XL is one of them....
1 thing that stop me from buying this device is ....No SD slot...
So maybe you can flash BinDroid soon.

You guys could probably use ported DHD ROMs.

No. Best solution is a DHD ROM port. As its similar specs

DHD does seem to be the closest hardware wise...
Though how the hell you'd go about porting it across is beyond me...at least for the moment. there's some porting stuff in Dsixda's kitchen if anyone fancies a go?

hey guys.i just come over from sgs2 and i now have the xl aswell,yeah it seems possible we could get development going and porting DHD/HD2 roms,would involve changing a thew things like the kernel but roms that are already based on the XL are more better to start with
Hello everyone, I've a little question for you ? I'm wondering when Cyanogen Mod Team will release 9th version of it ? I'm a bit confused, I check daily Twitter/Cyanogen site.. But nothing.
If Anyone can tell me
Ps; Sorry if this post exists yet :/
Nobody actually knows. On the cyanogen site they have a rule that you don't ask for ETA because they do it for free etc. Its ready when it's ready they say.
So guess we shall have to wait and see
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
Alright, We can just wait.. wait and wait ^^
Indeed. There are some beta versions out people have created. Look in the other sections of the incredible s forum. But a few of them have bugs e.g camera not compatible.

No CM9 as of yet, but this may help quench your thirst until then:

I know that there are two roms that are working. One of them are almost completly working except camera and video playback
Cyanogenmod 9
Unfortunately htc has not released it's drivers voor the Inc S, so it is very hard to fix the camera.. Hope the get it soon!! I'll guess the are working hard on it!!
Who is the dev for CM9 that owns the Incredible S?
They keep adding to the list of "included in next update" on the nightlies page. It's definitely coming for IncS.

I do agree and I have been playing a lot with this ROM. However the camera issue is related to HTC. They didn't release the source code of the camera drivers yet.
I downgraded to CM 7, last nightly build. I was missing my camera, I paid for it

CM9 is a long way off. There was a post just recently on Google Plus about the way they're trying to work in the options. This is why the tree is still at early alphas. Yes it's ICS, but it's lacking much of the nuances that would make it CyanogenMod including most of the options that we've come to know and love. I'd be surprised if we saw CM9 nightlies for the IncS before late February/early April.

Its basically as functional and the MIUI port we did, but again its the kernel which is stopping anymore progress at the minute, which is why I've been a little quiet recently, I've been trying to do an AOSP kernel... which is harder than I first thought, thats why I needed help with it

As I remember from CM7 on the Incredible S, there's so many little tweaks and options that make it a lot better Sense, its a lot smoother aswell.

Hello all.
Yesterday I lost my sensation xl. It fall out of my pocket while I was test driving codefirex 4.2.1 jelly bean. So here is my question.
Should I buy similar device so I can keep developing for sensation xl or should I just stop developing on this phone?
I have found a used sensation xl for 173 euro and I think I can find that money but I want to know if it will be worth it.
If I buy another one I will continue developing jelly bean but without a sensation xl I will stop.
Also if someone knows about a sensation xl that is cheaper I will be happy

There are so few developers and roms for SXL that you cant leave us like HTC did!
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using xda app-developers app
We would loose a great developer! But you have to decide to spend your money on the SXL again or buy another one. We would probably miss you =) =) =).
Greetz, haendler
So here is the new info i had buy another htc sensation xl to keep developing on
Yay! Thats good news. In fact i pre ordered Xperia Z couple of nights ago but gonna keep SLX second phone and for playing with xda roms. If this had lte and better reception, i wouldnt even get a new one. But we still need JB.

You are one of the few developers, without you (and off course Stona175, Ltx, Vertigo, fshami,) this forum is dieing. How about Jelly Bean ROM?
