Droid X ROM port ?

is it possible ?
thanks =D

Would have thought a stock android port would come first

1st why? Is there anything special that is not present on the sgs firmware?
The default firmware form motorola is usually crap. I know coming from a milestone.

The Droid X Launcher and Widgets are different from milestone !

A stock android would be good too.

You only want the launcher and the widgets
I thought you wanted the kernel and all that.

Port Motoblur to Droid 1?

i thought it would be really cool if someone took all the software from the Droid 2 and ported it all to work on the Droid 1. i mean like motoblur and all the blur apps, icons and the lock screen and all and made it work on the original droid? is it possible some one could make this happen?

Not feasable

[Q] [Possible Port] Nexus One MIUI Chinese ROM

Here's a link to the thread for the MIUI Chinese Rom... I was wondering if any talented devs could possibly port this to the Droid X for us. I have a friend who has a Nexus One and said it is a really nice rom, just needs to be translated to English and ported to the Droid X.
Here is a link to the site: MIUI Chinese ROM
Here is the direct download link: Download ROM

I know someone that's running it on HTC incredible and apparently its capable of over 300 homescreens.

300 homescreens lol, no thanks! This rom does look awesome tho, Im looking at the launcher, a complete rom does not look possible @ this stage.

300 homescreens is just ridiculous I mean what do most people need with more then 10-15 home screens anything more is overkill
But yes this along with several other rims are nice alas motorolas chokehold on there devices kills most peoples will and desire to develop anything for there devices

Running this on my Incredible at the moment and it is hands down the best ROM I have used to date on my incredible. Just bought a DX today and its a bummer I wont be able to use it anymore

I would pay some big money for Miui on my X..

Just got my Droid X today. Got her all rooted and ready for some sweet MIUI lovin

myTouch 4G Motoblur Rom!!!

Has anyone Tried porting the droid x rom to the mytouch 4G or is it just me with the crazy idea that the red eye would look cool as h*ll i have the live wallpaper now i wish i had the real deal droid X was first choice before mytouch wish it worked on gsm 4g

I doubt we would see It. IT just takes a insaine amount of work to port different hardware makers roms to different hardware. thats why you never saw a sense rom fully running on motorola hardware. But you do see HTC Sense roms running on other HTC hardware that did not come with Sense (like G1 running Hero rom for example). You would have to reverse enginer the kernel, framework, and drivers to add the neccicary API calls.

True, but I remember when Motorola first came out with the Cliq, they ported it over to the G1.

Please do not post questions in development section.

That is true thats where i got the idea from but for the new blur version

This would be soooooooooo badass. i HATE motorola phones, but blur is interesting touchwiz would be interesting as well.

do you just have the various DX Eye LWPs or do ya have the Bootanimations to go with the LWPs?
I find it kinda fun to mess with folks at my local TMO store by booting up my Glacier and it having the Droid Pro Bootani, then having one of the modded DX LWPs and shuting down into the D2 Bootani. however I am partial to the Pre-release/Holiday edition Nexus 1 boot ani for my daily driver.

I just have the live wallpaper now
Someone needs to call dexter I would so donate 50$ for this project and another 50$ if it full works

here's the link to a .zip I just put up on megaupload with the bootanimations for the D2, DX and Droid Pro. after downloading unzip, select which ever one you want to use and install like any other Boot ani.

no problem man, I get bored sitting in my truck waiting to get unloaded so I troll around the other boards looking for bootanimations, LWPs and such that work on other phones and try'em out on mine if they work I keep'em and use'em to play around pushing and pulling in and out of various ROMs.

JB for Droid X?

Hello guys.
I saw on the front page that someone had ported Jellybean to the X2. My question is, do you think some talented developer could port JB to the original X? JB on the X would be amazing and it doesn't seem that hard to do considering its already on the X2! I know they have different CPUs and GPUs, but would it be that hard to do?
Thanks,
wws12

C'mon guys, this would be awesome!

xx13thangelxx commented about this on RootzWiki. He said he owns both devices, and a simple port wouldn't work. Hardware is way different. DX is single core omap, while DX2 is dual tegra2, a simple port just won't work. If someone were to get it up and running on a Droid 2, which has the same hardware basically as the DX, a port would be feasible.

Ah but they have! It's for the Milestone 2 which is the GSM version of the D2.

Since there is a build for the d2, any chance this will come to fruition?

Most new development and a lot of old development has ceased on the Droid X as many devs have moved on to bigger and better things (mostly shinier toys). Unfortunately I don't think our kernel can support a lot of the functions and to be honest, even if we came up with a 2nd Init JB for our DX, it would be even worse on battery life than the various ICS builds due to the fact that we cannot run custom kernels and the like to actually empower the hardware we have.
As far as JB goes, there's not a lot of real difference between it and ICS except a few different APIs and a bit of polishing as far as I'm aware, but again, we can't see the true benefit of these changes without a proper kernel and modules due to the locked down bootloaders forced upon us.

Unfortunately I'll also agree that most devs have moved on to other projects/devices. It's the nature of having to deal with a locked device and the fact that it's now been over 2 years since the DX was released. As a former DX owner, the SGS3 came out right as my contract was up so it made since to go to the next awesome thing.
I think p3droid and crew went to the bionic pretty early after it came out. I haven't really kept up with that bunch since they stopped releasing things for the DX. Also, cvcps is now the maintainer for the Cm10 builds of the SGS3.
When there was the big to do over the using of kexec to get around the kernel limitations I checked to see if someone would pick that up on the DX. Turns out that someone had, but the project was abandoned due to the difficulty of creating the various drivers needed. I had really hoped that the project would succeed so that my old DX would be useful into the future. However, it's now just a voip phone in my house.

There are still a few devs out here keeping up the DX's development. Nightly builds of CM7 for the DX are still being released almost daily. I know Wizard0f0s will be releasing an updated verison of his MIUI build any day now. CM9 builds periodically also seem to be leaking out. I wouldnt' be surprised to see a CM10 port from the Droid 2's alpha build making its way to the DX in the next few months. Not all hope is lost Give it time.

I'm happy with Gummy 1.20. Really it's too bad they killed it. Best ROM for the DX imo.

JB now works on D2 so yes, there are plans to port that to the X.

I second this!
From what I understand, Droid 2 ROM's work well on the Droid X with minimal re-configuration.
So please, please help the many users who are still holding on to their beloved Droid X's!
I purchased a Droid X and a 3800mah battery (china-style, but works great, 2+ days of battery life) for a total of 68 bucks from ebay a few months ago, and now I have Page Plus for 30 dollars a month (this and other phones work with no modding on their network).
Porting this ROM to the X would make my "just-like-verizon-but-way-cheaper" experience complete! THANK YOU SO MUCH AHEAD OF TIME. I WILL DONATE!!!

Lol give it some time. Like I said the dev is planning to move it over.to the X.

In the mean time gummy 1.20 has been updated to include HWA. It was tweeted out about a month ago by 13th angel.
I'm running it now and am very happy with the HWA upgrade. Battery life takes a bit of a hit but you can recover it with pimp my rom.

The Milestone 2 has received a JB port so it's now feasible to think that this could be installed on an DX. One problem though, the M2 is a GSM phone while the DX is a CDMA one. Is it easy to change it from wanting a GSM radio to using a CDMA one? Here's the link if anyone is interested.
