To be honest why would you want to do that for? But too answer your question I think maybe some of it could be like the widgets but I'm not sure about the rest

You may have read that, but it is not true. There is a lot of effort involved in porting a user interface line Motrblur or Sense from one platform to another. In most cases the UI is not open source and without the source code it is very complicated and some times impossible.
ok thank you thats the type of advice i need.. cause just need to figure out the specs and if its even possible....
i just read all the specs on the motorola back flip and they are practically the same as the aria the just a slower processor ..... n the led flash..
like tpbklake just said... Motoblur sits on top of android and it is most likely not open source, and will be difficult (near impossible?) to port over. I'm no expert, but in any situation the specs really shouldn't matter. FYI (for your information) you can get a backflip on ebay for under $100 if youre that desperate to have motoblur.
Y do i have to be disperate.. just a reg guy tryin to add to the dev of the aria.. is everyone on the site out to disrespect people tryin to learn wat they no.. wtf thanks for ur input anyway dude

Now, THIS phone has nearly identical specs to the Aria. I'd try to find a ROM from this and go from there. If you're brave enough, flash it! But I'd recommend rooting your phone and having clockword mod installed with a working nandroid backup first.

ok thanks for ur help i will try to flash some roms today and give a respond as to how it goes with the name and download links of whateva roms i try...
This is just my opinion, but if you have an Aria now, I wouldn't even bother with MotoBlur. The user integration is hands down rather horrible. Plus, like many said in here, integrating that into a rom for this phone would be a dev nightmare.
MotoBlur is a custom skin by Motorola, and the source is probably locked down! It would take a lot of time...

Here is a thread about trying to port Motoblur to an HTC device. This experienced dev finally gave up. Maybe you can gain some insight and ideas from this thread.

For what reason would I not root my phone, besides the possibility of owning an expensive paper weight...

This question has been answered many times, and should be in the QA forum not in the development forum. Please use the search feature of the forum.

Biggest problem is you could brick your device. The other is yes technically it does void your warranty but I have never heard of anyone being denied warranty exchanges on a root device.
It's always been my experience that bricks aren't likely. I've flashed quite a few things. Is it any more likely in this case?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
If you can read then you won't have problem rooting. Everything is writing in steps. Unless you are a retard then don't try .
Hahaha I think I'll be alright. Other than almost dd'ing a hard drive the wrong way once I'm pretty astute. I'll probably root next week.

Anyone have favorites on roms, while we're at it.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Hey mate, if I can root anyone can, if u need help pm me. As roms go, u can't really go wrong. Iced and the DHD (desire hd) roms are much like what your running stock just with slightly improved graphics and other customizations. Miui is from another planet where android and ios had a baby, slick smooth and very dif from any other rom ive ever tried. I like it but its kinda like a plymouth prowler, kinda cool lookin but just not quick enough. Cm-6 is prolly the best and def the cleanest android experience. Ive had a couple issues with it but its still what im running.
Awesome reply srivers33 good info. I was leaning towards iced (seems pretty popular) I am looking for something more vanilla but def not a requirement. I might just flash a few and try them each for a little.

Backups
Always make sure u do a true perm root and use rom manager and its clockwork mod recovery to back up the stock. That way if stock 2.3 releases before a good 2.3 rom releases you can just flash and update to 2.3!!!
Thanks dont think I read that in any posts, its a good idea. Definitely sounds easier to go back
So I rooted my phone using donjuans guide. I believe I have cyanogen 5.0.8.
While its nice I don't like the 2.1 android deal. I liked the 2.2.1 on here(OEM).
After browsing these forums I've seen mainly Ginger yoshi and cyanogen. Could someone compare the 2 for me? Is 2.3 worth it? How easy is it to go from one to the other.
I'm a noob to this business but not an idiot so hopefully I wont be much of a bother to the xda gods.

Hello,
You may know me for my work on Wildfire, particularly kernels and ROMs. I bought a ZTE Blade a few months ago and now I am selling my Wildfire.
It comes with rooted with AlphaRev S-OFF (HBOOT 1.01) and a ROM of your choice.
I'm looking to either sell it or maybe part exchange it for a better device (e.g. Desire Z)
Email me at [email protected] with offers if interested.
Thanks,
Jacob
Hmm not really intrested in bying a new wildfire since our best developer is gone *sad*.
By the way Jacob what do you think of the Blade? Is it worth bying?

It was worth it for me. Really happy with it, I will NEVER go down from HDPI.
Guys im sure as hell no newbie to rooting my own personal phones , but tomorrow my sister is visiting me from Florida with her new Evo on a fresh sprint 2 year contact (yeah dont ask) but anyways she wants to root her phone to tether on WiMAX. Could you guys guide me to the right links on rooting her phone and tell me which rom will be a kick ass rom for her. Most likely that will be the ROM she'll stay with for the rest of her contract.
Searching old thread isn't my thing. I rather suscribe to my own thread.
Also is the rooting process hard? My EVO 3d was a pain in the ass.

It all depends on the software. If its on 2.2 froyo you would use unrevoked. If its on GB 2.3.3 you would use revolutionary.io and if its GB 2.3.5 you have to use HTC dev unlock. I recommend that you put tommytomatoes classic rom on her phone. Its 100% stable and fully working and has great community support

+2 on tommy's rom. Is under the new evo 4g original development section. As far as rooting go is pretty straight forward, just find out which android version she is running ( which might be 2.3.5 ), and go from there.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Depends on preference, Tommy's rom's great. but have some variants for her. also may just show her some rom's she'll most likely want gb for stability and best performance. also HTC Sense rom's lagg a bit in my opinion AOSP seems to lag less for me and run more in a operational fashion.
edit install rom manager on her device and keep her stock rooted tell her she can change the software via that app. screen shot's info and downloads all in one nice little user friendly app.
Thanks for the great info guys. I'll be working on her phone tonight.
Just to make sure, with these roms, she still be able to use the HDMI out on the phone?
