woah, could well happen if some talented dev gets hold of it
The specs of this do match the Hero pretty well, although I doubt the camera will ever work. Hopefully I'm wrong though.
If i don't manage to sell my hero until this one is launched, I'm all with you guys
radu you are a god! haha
if you could do this it would be incredible!
I cant wait
Here is compare to this two phones http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3777&idPhone2=2861
Here's to hoping there is a newer kernel in this one that may be of use to reimer...
Lol
Thats one rubbish little phone, not bad for a starter android, but HTC really did let me down this year, as my upgrade falls in april when all the new handsets came out, looks like its the Atrix or some other 2 core CPU,
Back on track, Yes the specs do look a lot like are little heros, a part from the better screen, and slight bump in cpu and ram, not much diffent, hopefully it will be ported, thing is, iv not used sense for ages since late 2.1 roms, and not sure if it will slow down are cpu/ram.
Also a lower battry at Li-Ion 1230 mAh are heros is Li-Ion 1350 mAh,
But hopefully im wrong !!!
Another issue I thought of aside from the camera might be the software, it's probably designed to utilise the extra RAM, like that Gratia/Legend port Sense might close after opening a resource intensive app. With some luck and skill from a talented Dev this can probably be sorted, I think.

The tittle of this topic is well not logical, I thought it ment sense rom android version 2.1 XD maybe change it to sense rom 2.3, or something. I really though, another last year bumped topic XD
sorry but hero is using sense 2.0?i thought it's 2.1

Pot, meet Kettle.
If you read it and check the spec on the first post you can clearly se its sense 2.1 ANDROID 2.3
Shouldnt we be trying to get devs or help devs get the camera going for sense 2.2 before we try sense on 2.3......
Aaaand it's here!

Pretty sure it's from the "Wildfire S"-dump that means mdpi, and with a hero-kernel I thought I might have a shot, but I dont know how to repartition the internal memory, as the system-partition isn't big enough..
Wll if the system partition is not big enough, you want to install that on the SDcard? that would make the system pretty unstable if you ask me.
I only have a class-2 2GB sd-card, so I don't think that it would be a good idea

is it due to not a lot of people having the phone ? inexperienced devs? even the roms that exist have one thing or another that doesnt function properly...there only seems to be one solid rom for sure and the rest are just ehh...just trying to figure this out im coming from a device that had so many roms i didnt know what to do and on this side theres really only 3 or 4 choices. is this a froyo deal?lack of people with the units or what?
My best guess would be most devs are waiting for froyo to drop since it should be soon.

Its tuff to dev something knowing froyo us coming. I started my theme to be used on my rom but decided not to cook a rom. It well be easy to port my theme for use with froyo. A 2.1 rom ported to 2.2 us hard. It would be easier to start from scratch with a froyo build

Its the same thing that happened with the moment, almost no dev support. 1 because its a Samsung, 2 because it was the second 4g phone, 3 because its $50 more.
The Evo community is thriving though.
Look at the Moment forum on sdx-developers, then look at the Hero forum here on XDA. Same thing for the Epic vs Evo.

I really hope people will develop for Epic, I really enjoyed the ROMs on Evo. But I liked this one better, hope I didn't make a big mistake! Oh well, I haven't even rooted this one yet, maybe Ill just give it a rest for a while. I know my wife will like that. Don't mean to insult the devs, you're all we got, just wish more people had this phone.

I concur, in a perfect world this phone (which I am getting tomorrow) would be so great that I wouldn't flash rom after rom for little things such as percentage battery mod or something. I would flash roms because it looked slightly different than the previous. and always felt like something was missing. I hope i can just be satisfied with the roms and such that are available for the Epic.
Don't worry u will have plenty of devving for epic. It will not be as much as evo though as evo has much more devs and is more popular and has been out longer. But we will have quality not quantity and after froyo we will see more devving. Most devs don't wanna waste time if the update is coming in less than a month (hopefully).

No idea, ask sony phaggyson, I guess they think cheap phones with great hardware that are more than capable of running 2.3 still wont get them good money even if they update it..
fkn companies, this thing is way better than the wildfire i can't get my head around why they don't wanna update it.
You're a bit late there.
You can use a custom ROM (for example the Racht's ones) to upgrade your OS Android to 2.2 or 2.3.

Phone with lower CPU can have froyo installed on it. X8 should be sufficient running froyo, either it cost lot of money to support X8 or SE think why should support 'old' series when they can make money from new one with upgrade OS.

I agree. This was my first smartphone, so I had no idea what I was getting; I just wanted a dirt cheap android phone I could mess around with. With all the mods, hacks, and especially racht's custom ROMs (I couldn't believe how crappy the stock ROM was compared to those) I've been able to experiment with, I have a much better idea of what I want out of my next android phone and what it will be capable of. As for SE, you're right: never again.
Agreed. I've just installed my first ROM (2.2.1 CM HACKDROID v0.12) on my X8 and there is no way i am going back to the original!! Works great apart from a few setbacks like vibration not working, unable to move apps to SD and locks on its own sometimes while i'm using it. But having said that it's still much better than the stock OS!!
hey mister, where did you got the screen shoot? can you provide a link? why rather give a screen shot either than link?
if it is true, i will never by SE product anymore, i will rather choose I-Phone 4 either than xperia x8
Thinking of getting this.
using rcht's rom... its awesome!!!
Ok, I've been waiting for this rom to be released and finding out that it was canned due to lack of interest. If enough votes we can get this rom reopened and released. This rom needs to be released so it can break the monotony of the Gingerbread and Honeycomb roms thats out there. ZenExp rev 7 was beautiful and I can't even imagine how Rev 8 would look like.
Please vote to have this roms released. Thank you.
P.S. I don't know no other way to state my vote, maybe by typing "please release"

Yes! I was on this for a year, and I had to finally move on -- one of the saddest days of my life. I would love to see Rev8!
Yea I'll vote even though Im on a Dinc now. I still have my Eris laying around enjoying its retired life. Could have made a poll to go with your thread.

This was one of my favorite roms. I use xtrSENSE now. The froyo and gingerbread roms are alright. I just don't really care for them. The sense based roms run so much smoother on my phone. I would love to see this reopened. I would definitely rock it.
Excellent people, keep it coming. We need to let MAK know that we love his work. GB is great but there are too many roms that look the same. I use now GSB and go back and forth with xtrSense/xtrRom. I would love to see this released. It'll be my everyday rom.
If this comes out I wouldn't get another phone. All these phones coming out with different UI and downloadable 3d ui's that the Eris can't handle. But if this comes out I'll be more than satified.
Hm, maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not sure I see whats so appealing about that UI. Hopefully this doesn't sound like I'm trying to rag on your idea, I'm not, trust me.
Are there any screenshots laying around that "show it off" a little better?

Its not my work, but somebody elses. Its simple and different from all those Gingerbread roms (they are all so plain). At least this rom has some themes that are appealing.
You may look on this thread on the 5th page for the zenexp rev7 to get an idea and some more info. but its the same screen shots I posted.
The reason they are plain is for u to
Do what u want with them... I find that when I add something people want less

Dont be so hard on yourself you are a sense user who cannot read so what ,

You don't even have cm or aosp working properly, a whole team hasn't managed to port sense over to the galaxy s 1. A sense port is in fact possible, but it will take ages and a great team to do the job, which I doubt will spent their time in which they could've made money on something a few users would kind of like. Get a professional team, pay them, and that is when you will see your proper working sense rom.
Don't get me wrong, there are people who would like to try, but they will come out disappointed, for they will have to create the entire processor sources and get them to work on a closed-source rom. Probability of a working sense rom are very low.
Miui on the other hand is a nice alternative, it looks good and is way easier to port.
Something I forgot to tell by the way, if your s2 has a tegra 2 processor and htc ever releases a phone with tegra 2, which is very unlikely, you are in luck. If you have a samsung processor you're out of luck, since htc probably won't ever use processors made by a concurrent.

edit: its not Primadonna or Affinity. They are releasing a new rom i think its called Infinity.
Though would I be correct in assuming that even if they do get the camera working fully, that porting such would only work on Sense roms. (i.e.: I don't much care for Sense).
there are already ics roms without sense with working camera so it is a huge step up for desire z.

Well I know that much, cuz I'm using one. I'm talking bout *fully* working camera, all the same bells and whistles as gingerbread and 720p recording. Not talking bout the current state of non-Sense roms.
With that I'm guessing what Virtuous is planning to release camera-wise would be about the same as what some of us are already using.

well, they were talking about a fully working camera so i guess that includes the 720p recording. they said they used the 3.0 kernel source from primo so it will be different from what most of us using.

Hopefully if that's the case, that one can be ported to other (non-Sense) roms.
I know that for some Sense doesn't matter, but I find it as an integral part of owning an HTC device. (The Flip-to-Silence feature got me hooked when I saw the ads ) and each and every time I tried another ROM, I found myself going back to the good ol' Sense. Whatever version it might be (2.1, 3.0, 3.5).
It adds small stuff that some people care about - for example, the clock app has a stopwatch, timer, and other functions right in the app. I know I can download another app to do all that stuff, but hey - it's more integrated, it looks better in my opinion and I like to keep things stock because they are more in tune with the rest of the UI.
I really love the „Holo” theme in ICS, but we have to admit it still lacks in the App department. Yes, you can get apps to get the functions, but they aren't as finished and as polished as Sense apps.
Also, that Car Home app in Sense 4 is S-W-E-E-T!
You see my point. Different people have different needs. I'll stop here, or else this post will get waaay too long.

Yea I can certainly understand the appeal of Sense, as I've tried some of Virtuous's roms, problem is that for me it's much too sluggish most of the time and I would prefer some functionality over some of the aesthetic. (kind of funny when I say it that way, cuz my somewhat minimal ICS rom looks cleaner than the gingerbread stock Sense I had).
In any case, any progress is good progress considering that the alternatives we were waiting for (i.e.: DHD/etc getting stock ICS) isn't going to happen.
In regards to cameras. Right now on the rom I'm on right now, I can take 5MP pictures and record videos at 720x480, granted however the process was much smoother and crisper in gingerbread ( I guess cuz you'd get full hardware control in those cases ). But as long as one can actually take a quick snap or scan a barcode I think that'll make most people happy across the board.
We all love the virtuous team though
