Unless it's specifically says "CDMA" or "Sprint", it's most likely for the GSM version.
[Edit] Just looked at it more closely... it's for a G1 [/Edit]

Ah ok, thanks!

Looking at his screen grabs he has "3G" and "T-Mobile" on his. My Assumption would be he is running a GSM H-euro on T-Mobile.

Android Spin has ZERO CDMA Sprint roms.. or any CDMA that I could find.. but tis still a good source of whats to come..

thias could actually be ported over. not sure if all will work or not

well PayPal balance: $13.96 USD now cuz wtphoto donated the other day its all good though man. i dont do it for the cash. i do it to help out everyone. i mean really what fun is there in being the only guy with a heroc running 2.1? none at all. but to get it working and everyone enjoying what u have done is rewarding in its own. ive been in the noob shoes and still am sometimes if it werent for determination and devs that wanted to help and share id still be a cluless about all this stuff. so i xda tradition im doing for other as was done for me

porting the kernel is proving a serious undertaking for me... learning C and hacking linux kernel code at the same time = no fun. damn .29

the SDK level 7 (2.1) was released on android's website. maybe we can get an aosp and then try to shove the .29 kernel as well as the sense ui onto it. or, just try to get flipz' 2.1 fully working.

Why can't we port the .29 GSM Hero kernel working?

Maybe we already went over this but I can't remember. Why can't we port over the .29 kernel from the GSM roms?

I'm not scared. They have the kernel we need, they get all the fancy "shmancy" phones before we do. They won't share it and I'm pretty sure I know why so if they can't take a little poke then I suppose they should "bugger off!"

They do have the kernel? I thought so but wasnt sure.
uhh... i'm a bit confused about the whole kernel thing regarding the hero.
i know that htc released the source code for the kernel... but i'm assuming that was the 2.6.27 right?
so i know that android 2.1 uses .29 to work, so how did the GSM hero people get that kernel and why don't we have a working .29 kernel for our phones?
please clarify?

I believe its because they had the original leak of the 2.1 sense with the .29 kernel built in

I would like to try to put together a custom kernel for my Hero. But I am having trouble locating the .29 source. I synced up with http://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common but that is the .27 branch. And most of the other stuff looks to be .27 as well. Is the only place to get the .29 source from the GSM hero? Thanks for any help.

I believe that is the only place to get the source. HTC hasn't released the cdma source yet. Is that our issue? Isn't it possible to use the gsm source?
found something helpful out
so when i run 'make menuconfig' front eh root directory of the HTC released .27 Hero source, under system type "Qualcomm MSM" is the system type. So when browsing through the link that I posted to the kernel git repo I found that there is a MSM branch, and it looks like it have some references to .29 and later kernel verions. Ill explore further and let you guys know.

1.6 on hero

Been looking around to see if anyone has been put 1.6 on the hero, but so far i haven't found anything. Just wondering if its currently even possible. I hate the senseui, so if stock 1.6 is available on cdma hero would be great to know. Thanks in advance.
Ill do ya one better. We dont have 1.6 but we almost have a fully working 2.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593620
I tried and built a 1.6 AOSP and it crashes and burns. The system_server process sigbus with a null pointer exception and crash/loops on my Sprint Hero when it tries to boot up.
Honestly, 1.6 and 2.0 seems "closer together", 1.5 to 1.6 is a much bigger jump. I think Google kinda messed up the versioning there. 1.6 should've been 2.0, and 2.0 be 2.1

Well HTC/Sprint is currently working on 2.1 for the Hero. So I seriously doubt that will happen. But you can always turn off Sense or build you own custom rom without Sense...
I could use any of the ones currently available , but from what ive been told, nothing will be completely compatible just yet. HTC just needs to get in gear, or hire some of the guys here lol. Also heard they got 2.1 running on droid and its amazing, so i guess im just patiently waiting....

[Kernel] 2.6.29 kernel for AOSP roms

Hey guys, i kinda felt bad for you guys, how you guys still don't have a true aosp build (minus the crappy froyo sdk which isn't built for any target). so i decided to make you guys a kernel that should work on your phones. i'm only gunna supply the zImage for you guys, if you want to know how i got the touchscreen to work, all i did was take the drivers/input/touchscreen/synaptics_i2c_rmi.c from cm-kernel and put it into my kernel source. well devs, have fun with this. you guys can now make a real cyanogenmod or aosp rom. This kernel is OC'd at 768 mhz. I'm only gunna supply the zImage, you devs make this work for your roms
Thanks Toastcfh for getting overclock to work on msm7k android devices

oh man, now I can smell true AOSP cooking up right now somewhere in here... time to get rid of those chunky SenseUI. Dont get me wrong, There's nothing wrong with Sense UI, it's matter of personal preference and I'm just old school from G1 and loyal fan of AOSP build.

why would i need to re-release source for your kernel. does that make sense. all i did was edit two files in the source. those files are on toastcfh's github. i don't need to re-release the source. that would be a waste of time and effort. please, if you don't like me, just pm me and we'll settle things.
also, i'm pretty sure this works unless i forgot to recompile your source after i changed the file
has anyone else tried it besides the preteen who blatantly has some sort of bias against me?
Thanks darchstar! I've always been envious of your AOSP roms.

[REQUEST] PNGs Finished! MIUI ROM for MDPI.

Devs,
Not sure if anyone has had the chance to take a look at this, but they've finished converting the PNGs from MIUI to MDPI. I know there's been a lot of hype over this ROM and I'm sure it would be a big hit with Eris users if someone decided to take a crack at it!

From what I see, there isn't any source for it yet. Without that, porting is nearly impossible. It was designed for ARM7 cpu... so we'd need the source.

Oh, disregard what I said about it then. On a phone as limited as the Eris the only way to make it truly fast is to do it from source.

That is correct, but strangely all the backlighting of the buttons etc worked out of the box, buttons it is easy to fix if you want.
Just a little test for fun nothing else, also saw that there was support for mdpi so theoretically it could be working on Hero with some manual intervention.

Yes, it is foolish to ask for a ROM that's meant to run on tablets to be made for phones. But I never have never said and never will say no to a new ROM...
Sent from my Hero using XDA App
Yes it's going to run like ass and our screens won't do any good either.
But... as always, I'm eager to see what crazy stuff the ROM-people come up with.
but the sdk version includes some feature of switching from tablet to mobile mode by simply changing resolution... they won't have included it if it wasn't meant to be run on mobiles, and in 3.1, mobile (2.x) and tablet (3.0) development lines shall be joined (says wikipedia lol). moreover, lots of people out here said it would be impossible to run 2.2 and 2.3 on hero, and right now i'm looking at my rooted android 2.3 hero which is incredibly smooth and stable (way better than with stock os). so why shouldn't it be possible? ele just said even backlight of the buttons worked out of the box, which was not case in 2.x. i'm still believing in our developers (although i can't code well enough to support them ) and i'm sure they'll do some magic
greets, Summoner
Do you really use wikipedia for truths? Anyone can add to Wiki?!
no i don't... i just think it sounds possible... otherwise, there would be two future development lines which the consequence would be that there were VERY different features depending where more / the better devs work on lol^^
i didn't claim it was the absolute truth, otherwise i wouldn't have explicitly said it came from wiki ...
