[learning - how to] Updating cyanogen - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi to all,
first of all it's only a learning post, I'm not requesting dev updating
We've got roms based on CyanogenMod 6, I saw a friend of mine updating his desire on the fly and well, I know that this isn't possible, but if I go on cyanogen forum i see downloadable roms for every device.
My question is: we've got a rom which is based on desire OR nexus one, I downloaded the package rom of the new cyanogen for desire, what happen if I simply change al the files in the HD2 rom with the files in Desire rom? I suppose it doesn't start, obviusly.
In the Cyanogen for desire archive there are those folders:
System
|--app
|--bin
|--etc
|--fonts
|--framework
|--lib
|--media
|--usr
|--xbin
|--build.prop
and the a boot.img
If I just change the whole system (not the boot.img) folder in my rom with the one in desire, shouldn't it just upgrade cyanogen?
Or just some of that folder.. I mean, I don't think that cyanogen based mod are fully modded and every file is modified to fit our HD2.. or is it so?
Thanks for any help! ^_^

Like the rom manager? I dunno. It might be different since this is a hacked device with different drivers....
Plus its on sd card.
Best to just update your build every week out so.

Well the question was a bit different... I can update my build only if the builder releases his update, but if he stops, is there a way to update using directly the cyanogen files found on official cyanogen forum? i suppose no, but i'd like to know why and what is the difference between the nexus or desire CM build and our CM build? (and not desire build are made for desire, nexu for nexus, hd2 for hd2, I've understood that XD)
I know it isn't clear -.- can't find a way to explain it better anyway :/

Is it possible to flash a rom if you are running a sdcard ported android system?

I have a touch pro 2...I am running the most recent android build for my touch pro 2. I looked at the system details and its reading that the build is the dream aka the g1. Im really feeling the the new sense user interface and as of right now I know there are alot of flashable roms to get the hero's sense ui on the g1.
So is it possible to flash a rom if you are running a ported android build
No, don't even try it. You could permenatly brick your phone. You don't have a G1 theirfore your device has different system requirements.

A few questions about Custom ROM's

I'm a noob and I have a few questions about Custom Rom's. First, what is Cyanogen? Is it a standalone Rom or is it a platform for Custom Rom's to run on? I have an X8 and I have Link2SD, if I flash the CM7 ROM in this forum will the apps in the EXT2 partition disappear? Also, I live in China at the moment and I flashed the operating system to an American Version... Which Rom will work better for me in China,the Cyanogen or the one ported from Sense? I bought my X8 in China. Thanks for the help~ oh and one last question, will SE really stop upgrading the X8 or is it just for the moment?
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
CyanogenMod is a popular custom Android ROM. It includes features that aren't normally built into Android.
The apps on the EXT2 partition will not disappear, however they will not appear in your app drawer. You'll have to re-install them/re-link them.
It does not matter where you bought the phone, the ROM will work exactly the same. The ported Sense ROMs are not completed and barely work.
SE has only stopped upgrading the X8's Android version (so we will never see an official 2.2 or 2.3 firmware). We will still see future 2.1 updates.
Edit: Also, this was posted in the wrong section.

[Q] Wildfire Non-HTC Stock ROM?

Hey guys, i really just want to flash a ROM to my wildfire that does not have HTC branded all over it as in my eyes HTC Sense is a pain in the bum and all it does is take power and performance so what I would like to know is, is there a FROYO ROM made for the wildfire without sense for example a port of an untouched nexus 2.1 ROM or something like that?
please don't tell me to use a launcher or to download a heavily edited ROM that has bloat ware all over it plus i do not want gingerbread.

I would have recommended OpenFire as well, since it is a pure untouched AOSP Froyo ROM, but the D/L link is dead, and there's no alternative location to download it yet. An alternative should be UtMostROM (Based off OpenFire)

Remember though, all of these are minus FM Radio, and Video Recording.
Lastly, you can look at Hybrid ROMs as well, which keep the Sense Framework, but replace the Sense Apps:

[Q] CyanogenMod 9

Hello guys.
Is possible to have android 4.0.4 on our tattoo?
I know that rallapag has made CynogenMod 9 and i saw wildfire has new version ported from lg p350.
Is it possible use something from that rom to improve rallapag version or maybe make some new version, and if there is possibility how can i help.
Thanks.
As mentioned previously by someone mainly arco68..there is no GPU on the Tattoo so there is no way...it is just too slow.
The EOL shall be on 2.3.7 on CyanogenMod 7...which is fast enough for daily use
