Is it possible to port Froyo From HTC Wildfire to HTC Legend, since they have similar hardware structure?? Yesterday leaked RUU Froyo rom from Wildfire, and today is rooted and everything, so I'm postin here the link to rooted version, and I hope that this maybe help devs to port froyo rom with htc sens to legend, since many users are waiting to such rom .

Froyo is allready ported on Legend ...

Possible? Yes.
Worth-while? I don't think so.
With old Legend's kernel it could work but with Wildfire's new one I doubt. Processor is different, touch-screen too (resolution).
Grafx porting is trivial but would be painfully long-lasting...
Will take a quick look at it...
I dn't see the interest to port the HTC Wildfire Rom to legend ?! ...

Ohw thanks for blessing me with that... I've been using Azure for mor than a month so it is not new to me. But some people really prefer Sense, I'm not one of them, I've just pointed out that there maybe is a possibility of porting it to legend, since HTC update service is very useless to legend.
@Blayo
Ohw I see now that resolution really is different, I wasn't paying attention on that .
hummm Sorry I misunderstood =)
I think that´s a great idea.
I am using now Azure 1.0.1 and work´s really fast but i prefer sense.
I have ported it.. 1. Problem: need to fix touchpad to get it working.. booting is fine.. 2. Need to see if resolution can be fixed..

Great I'm sure some dev could help you with this problems. Maybe you can get some helpfull stuff out of Azure rom, sinced it is based on froyo, or ask Ali Ba for some advice. Good luck fixing it!

So far so good! Is it confirmed if the ROM has JIT and all other Froyo goodness enabled?
Great new.
Can´t wait to test it.
Thanks whitetigerdk!!!

About resoultion, I guess changing LCD density in build.prop wouldn't help? Default value for legend is 160.

Only what the thread for Wildfire says.. about the port it can't be tested since the touchpad doesn't work..

I'm pretty sure the touchscreen will never work, as you have to apply patches to the source code before it is compiled for it to work on the legend :/
Grab a Legend's 2.6.29 kernel from your 2.03.405.3 ROM. You have nothing to loose.
Android powah!

Patch the kernel or some android stuff?

Someone with the knowledge should add the kyosa touchscreen patches to get this working. Would be great.
If a rom leaked to the wildfire I hope they will leak one for the legend too. Would be a treat.
The wildfire has already came out with froyo in china,then the RUU leaked. There is no official froyo rom from htc, so it is hard to believe it will leaked.

If they are not preparing one, there's nothing to be leaked.

I was wondering when the 2.6.32 desire kernal will be in any ROM's? I'm trying to work on it now but having trouble in Ubuntu. Anyone got any ideas?

Do you have a link to this source for this kernel that you are referring to?

Direct from HTC, http://developer.htc.com/ ? Problem is, the real "Desire" isn't very similar to the Eris other than the old codename that HTC gave the Eris model, "Desirec".
More from Google, including a lot here at XDA.
Would it be from this post? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696846

Excuse my ignorance, but what is the advantage of this newer kernel? Do we even need it now that we have everything on our devices working on the .29 kernel?
Some think it's best (or reqd) to have the latest.
Sent from my CyanogenTazz Froyo using XDA App
We don't "need" it but it will be more streamlined to work with froyo. Instead of having a million work arounds to get something like facebook syncing to work things will work by default. I've said it forever, the biggest thing for our phones is updating kernels.
i flash all the roms i found and i like this one the best but now i can not remeber where i got it from can someone tell me what i have lol i know its is a funny question but i am lost
You have an HTC Sense based Liberated ROM, version FR008.
thanks so does that mean i am running froyo 2.2 or just 2.2 or something differnet all together
sorry this is the frist time i have ever rooted or moded a phone
Froyo 2.2 is what you got
sent from my HTC Intruder
Fyi froyo IS 2.2...just as gingerbread is 2.3 and eclair is 2.1
Oh yeah, sorry, forgot to add in which OS you're on. Lol, but what they said ^
Thanks again this site has been helpful glad I found it

Also will wildfire expect gingerbread or is froyo is the latest we gonna get eva?
Hey,
I think it's impossible for now to root 2.2 wildfire (I have the same sh*t).
And the HTC Wildfire is on the update list for 2.3

How do you know HTC Wildfire is on the updatelist for gingerbread?
The wildfire is never going to get official gingerbread. you can root and install a custom rom like jacobs one.

Are you sure? If so, HTC really upset me!
HTC is gonna income the same old sh#t, the wildfire is too slow. The fact is that 2.3 does not have different system requirements than 2.2, from what I know.
Maybe they'll surprise us.....
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
That depends on what HTC will put in gingerbread, i.e. the new ultra-super-l33t Sense, which would require hi-res screen and 1GHz CPU to work fine..
Lol, before froyo was released , there was a million question bout its release date. Now that its out, there's a million question whether it can be rooted or not.

Thats interesting.
I'm not good at porting whole ROM, I hope some devs will be interested in that.

soooooooo?.....
We already have gingerbread up and running with the .29 kernel if I'm right? It's fully functional, so the kernel shouldn't be a problem I think.
Sense is a pain in the ass to port since everything is closed source with Sense so it is a huge undertaking. Not to mention the Hero doesn't have many devs to begin with and the most active one (Feeyo) doesn't port Sense.
Villainrom are trying to fix the camera on 2.2 sense so i can see them porting this in the future.
After all they did fix camera on 2.2!
Villain is doing so, and well a dev on cronos is doing the same thing. And again we got 2 fronts doing the same thing XD....
They could possibly do it as a TEAM but i cant see that happening tbh
im working on this, not yet got the rom to boot and it may be quite difficult due to kernel, i believe its not a requirement for 2.6.35 kernel, minimum that should work fully is 2.6.32, i will post a test release once i have it booting
That would be huge! Fingers crossed good luck

this is gud to hear. really looking forward to see what happens. two years after the phones was released and its still alive and kicking.
great news!!!!
Are the binaries in this ROM compatible with hero? Surely they will all be ARMv7?

WILDFIRE S have MSM7227 600mHz this is ARMv6.
wildfire cpu >= cpu hero
Ok if that is the case, I really think HTC failed there XD
Yeah, that's a fail from HTC...
A new device running on something < ARMv7
Meh, gives RaiderX something to do

I have downloaded the following rom: PG59IMG_Doubleshot_TMOUS_1.28.531.8_Radio_10.48.9007.00U_10.12.9007.07_M2_release_201296_signed.zip
which I believe is the official TMOUS rom for the doubleshot. will it work on the MT4G? I am hesitant to install it as I don't want to screw my phone up to the point where I brick it, can anyone provide some guidance as to if you have tried it, if so, what were the results, thanks in advance.
Under no circumstances should you flash it on to your phone. It has an hboot, radio, and rom that are all incompatible with our hardware. Flashing an incorrect hboot or radio makes your phone a brick. If you want to run the doubleshot rom, search google for raftvittos doubleshot port.

Im no dev...but probably not 1) you might brick your device 2) Im pretty sure if it boots youll lose root....just wait for a ďev to cook it up IMHO.
Don't flash it. For the love of god, do not flash it. Unless of course you want a $600 paperweight.
