HTC ROM? HTC Sense? N1 already got it!

Does here any chance to get HTC ROM (Sensation/Desire S/Desire HD...) or just HTC Sense (2.1/3.0) port to our great P990?
just see a ported ROM for Nexus One, a little bit missing my old phone... /_\

I still have my Nexus One

mine was gone with the thief ><

Don't know if it's possible, they were able to port itbto the n1 because iy's very similar to the desire, i think.

I think actually its ported already. Sense 3.0 .... Look in the theme section for P990
Edit; just a theme but it looks good indeed

Also because there are alot of developers there compared to LGO2x

tbh mate, dont have any high hopes for this kind of port,
HTC phones tend to be very similar (nexus1 is basically a desire) so when a new version of sense comes along, its not that hard to port it to other devices.
Porting sense to a totally different device, from a different manufacturer, with different processor, just makes it too tricky. You'll notice that the Galaxy s, (which is way way more popular than our phone) doesnt have a sense port either (after just double checking this, turns out they do have one from the 2nd of june and its very buggy alot of things dont work)
So yh basically dont get your hopes up about a sense port, with devices you tend to get a modified version of your own manufactures rom, if your lucky a CM7 support, and possibly a miui rom. If the device is very popular then you might get the odd asop rom, but for example you wont get a port of the SE arc rom on our phones or anything like that.

Devs! ICS SDK avaliable..try to port to our OB?

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/10/18/android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-sdk-and-adt-14-released/

sdk is not source code

SDK = Software Development Kit, not the Source Code !
This is tool for software developers that are making apps/gamez for ICS.

i know..but devs try to make it work on SE x10
and when i got zte blade, on modaco the devs ported 2.3 from sdk

Bless, we've been stuck waiting for 2.3 for nearly half year, with no visible signs when is that gonna happen. Probably ICS in two years time.
On the matter as started above S SDK is not source code.

i know sdk is not source code..but others can do a bootable rom from it... see x10
or zte honeycomb on android modaco...
its all from sdk...maybe with cm7 libs and kernel and so on

Don't count on it. I guess our best bet is Cyanogen. I don't think LG will do it.
It might just be me, but unless apps start requiring ICS there's no real benefit to it. It doesn't seem to do that much that can't be achieved otherwise. I actually just switched from a Gingerbread phone to a 2.2 OB and I don't miss anything. Reading about 4.0 doesn't give me the impression that existing phones will be so much better with it.
It would obviously be nice to have ICS and I would definitely flash an ICS rom to my OB.

The IceCreamSandwhich GPU Acceleration of the UI is a real benefit.

i heard that Cyanogen is doing CM8 based on ICS. I think OB is getting one too....hope so....

Does Optimus Black have enough internal storage for ICS? I mean Nexus S has 16gb Free while Optimus Black has only 1GB free.

It matters not. The software itself wont eat much. That 16gb internal is for smoother operation. System not reading an SD Card which would be slow. That's why they gave it a large internal memory as possible.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium

Yup. Phone 's hardware is no problem. We have a decent processor and RAM and ROM space. So ice cream sandwich is surely to run on optimus black. Unlike other phones such as Sony, s new devic es xperia mini and pro and neo etc which have just 320mb internal memory.
Although since LG will take too many time to update we will surely need some developer 's support S soon as possible.

Don't care i'm expecting miui ice cream

I don't think OB will be updated to ICS because were not even Gingerbread yet. But my hope is with Marquee because it's currently 2.3 so next update is certainly ICS then just port to our OB.
Similar to what happend to my old Samsung i780 where only its twin brother EPIX got updated to the latest version thankfully some good guys here at XDA ported it.

[DEVS] Galaxy Nexus JellyBean OTA (source build being worked on i believe)

was just browsing xda and seen this. is it possible for a port

find a fully working version of ICS for the IncS then we'll think about JellyBean.
ICS been out since last year, only until recently we've seen some better roms on xda, i'd give it till next yr for JellyBean if anyone is still developing for the IncS then.

This might make HTC release the source faster when they realize that they are updating to an old os

I think it's strange we dont have an official CM9 nightlies for our phone
there's loads of unpopular **** phones that have it ...

I'm guessing we're still struggling with hacking the proprietary camera and graphics drivers in our phone. The only 99% stable ICS roms i've found are the Sense 4.0 roms (and even those FC when trying to take pictures at max res). I much prefer AOSP, but it crashes too often when using graphics intensive applications.

Samsung galaxy tab 1 and 2 has official CM9 and both don't have ICS sources
the 7" tab1 is gingerbread oficially, but remarkably everything works in CM9
The 10.1 inch tab 2 (GT-P7100) is honeycomb and in CM9 the camera doesn't work
So your statement seems invalid ...

Am I the only one working on this, or does anyone want to join me on IRC? Dev help only, there won't be any test files or anything to flash, so there is no use saying "Yeah I'll come in!" if you just want a file to install, I need someone who can help with making the right edits to the init files, cause after 5 versions I can't get past the bootsplash.

guys,just to be patient, we all will get it.

[Q] can any one port sense 4 to our SGA.?

can any developer port sense 4.0 to galaxy ace.
some developers have started a project called sense 4.0 all they are porting sense 4 to many samsung devices, even galaxy s. so i was thinking is there somebody who coould port sense 4 to sga

Sense 4 needs ics, and ics for ace arent stable yet.
Not to mention no one had ever successfully port a full working sense rom to other device than htc's.

1.There is nothing interesting in it
2.There is no point in working your ass off just to "see" if it works..

4.We haven't even managed to get a properly working Sense(earlier version) which was based on GB,no point in trying this..

[Discussion][2.3.7] Cyanogenmod 7

This is a topic that discusses the possibility and pros/con's of having a gingerbread rom on our desire c.
Personally I think that gingerbread is like CLASSIC android, and 4.0+ is More MODERN android.
I have absolutely no experience in building Roms so I ask the developers here to maybe try to build something more old fashioned
I am willing to test any and every ROM made.
What do you guys think?
I feel that we have run out of Roms to build in android Jelly bean so why not try something old but fresh!

Thanks that would be awesome!!! And to all the haters (me, and brnt) not everyone likes the way android 4.0+ looks. I personally like it but I like 2.3 better...
Pros / Cons of gingerbread:
Pros:
- better menu look
- faster performance on our hardware
- less bulky than jelly bean (animations, apps, etc)
- more classic of android
- AWESOME 3D GALLERY
- Officially supported hardware
Cons:
- less smooth as jellybean
- less app support
- less RAM management

Pros / Con's of Cyanogenmod 7 (not the stock GB features)
Pros:
-more customization than cm10
-(currently) more themes than cm10
Con's:
-less "spin offs" (Provision, Etc.)
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app

Why would you downgrade a device to software that is 2 years old? If you wanted to get 2.3 buy a wildfire S... The main selling point of this device was at the time it was a very cheap and good quality handset running the latest version of android which was 4.0! And gingerbread was old and looked outdated compared to modern day Android (entirely opinion though)
The points you made with stock gingerbread were mostly opinion, and about the jelly bean being bloated (which I agree with) remember that the HTC Desire C came with stock ICS which was smooth when coupled with sense. And I think someone can port the "AWESOME 3D GALLERY" if it hasn't been done already.
It would be great to see it happen, but what's the point?

If you want GB ( Not CM7 ), you can port stock rom from HTC Explorer. Desire C and Explorer have same chipset, so the ROM will boot and function out of box. Only, BT and WiFi wont work at first. You can fix that later.

Guys I really appreciate your opinions on the topic. Lol, from the start of the development of this phone I wanted a GB look. You may laugh at me for buying a phone that never had or will get GB but the only phone that was availible to me to get GB (my carrier) was the Samsung galaxy Q, and that thing is really bad + it runs 2.2 not 2.3 and 2.2s status bar is ugly (my opinion). So is there any devas that wish to help me out a little?

Well I like your idea of having something classical. And no I am not a hater, I'm just stating an opinion.
That is why its a [Discussion]. What I recommend you doing is to learn how to do stuff on your own and not rely on others.
I was curious about kernels, so I learned. I mean it shouldn't be that hard to follow a guide.

About GB
me too ... i wish theres a GB/CM7 roms here... .. .but it is more smooth if it is a plain GB (doesnt have a Sense) ... and also about the kernel?? what kernel we should flash?

That would be awesome. Oh the days f gingerbread

You should use kernel 2.6.x for GB. For that you need to port Explorer's 2.6.x stock kernel source to Desire C, just like we ported 3.0.x kernel for Explorer from Desire C.
