Devs can't use the existing camera libs from 2.1 ROM neither apply patch on them as they did for froyo, so they need to rewrite them for Gingerbread..but this is extremely difficult..
correct me if I'm wrong...

Owh.... I think Gingerbread camera just stuck at VGA because the system don't capture 3MP. But, can we just get another phone libs to our phone?? (Sorry i'm newbie, just want to more learn) Also sorry for bad english

I've already said why and no we can't...if it was that easy devs would have done it from the beginning!

FroyoBreads camera is 2048x1536

so froyo based ROMs doesn't have the VGA limitations?
anyone knows where to download these camera libs?? I'll try to rewrite...

You're funny.
If experienced devs found it hard, how can someone like you "rewrite it"
If you need cam, use froyo...

maybe it's not that hard just it takes a lot of work

They have to rewrite libcamera cos they can't patch libcamera from stock sources. Thus, VGA for us until some genius rewrites/patches libcamera. And DDI, just let him try, it won't hurt. Besides, he's willing to spend time and effort so don't just act superior with your condescending and discouraging tone. Support those ppl who attempt to make a difference for ppl like us .

Froyobreads ROMs dont have VGA limit because they aren't Gingerbread/CM7 -> Froyobread based on CM6 (in CM6 camera have no limits).
Gingerbread have limits because devs schould edit ROM source to fix them. This is so dificult. We just waiting .

So are devs are working on it? i see the dev only developing froyo, also i know Froyobread is not VGA limited, it just a Froyo that customized to be like Gingerbread, but really, i hate the rom. I felt the rom has a minus point, but i can't find it.
DDI, if u said better use froyo, use by yourself! your post just make my mood low!

Thought I already was ;D
I can't do it without source code so it'll probably be a month or so after Google's official announcement
The phone itself should have no problem running it in theory, however, the whole experience might (probably will) suck due to the lesser hardware in the Wildfire.
That is unless Google tweaked & performance tuned it and all its new features so that it does not require anything more powerful that the 2.2 does.

Jacob you're awesome!
Iv'e heard that things like scrolling and stuff will be smoother, will it be on the Wildfire?
He said he'll try port it to the wildfire
I haven't rooted my wildfire yet, but maybe Gingerbread will change that

Funniest comment on XDA. BTW ur awesome Jacob. I hope Google doesn't specify u need hardware out the wazoo and stuff. I think Google wouldn't be so evil and let Gingerbread run smoothly on low-end hardware.

Most official Wildfires still haven't got 2.2 yet so most like custom mods will be our only source for 2.3. I haven't seen much that is interesting in 2.3. As far as I can see it is going to bring updates that make android more tablet friendly.

[REQUEST] PNGs Finished! MIUI ROM for MDPI.

Devs,
Not sure if anyone has had the chance to take a look at this, but they've finished converting the PNGs from MIUI to MDPI. I know there's been a lot of hype over this ROM and I'm sure it would be a big hit with Eris users if someone decided to take a crack at it!

This excites me so much.
I've been watching this Rom and everyone at the hero forums have done some amazing work. We have some incredible devs here who should give it a go

From what I see, there isn't any source for it yet. Without that, porting is nearly impossible. It was designed for ARM7 cpu... so we'd need the source.

Oh, disregard what I said about it then. On a phone as limited as the Eris the only way to make it truly fast is to do it from source.
Has anybody asked the devs to release the source? That is, if anybody wants to pick it up.

yes they were asked and as of now they were told no
Wow, way to act in the spirit of Android.
Somebody should grab a copy of the ROM and reverse engineer it just to mess with them.

While I am all for open source and sharing this is more of an android overlay just like Sense and motoblur which we don't have the source for either.

You should add a poll at the top stating this.

Yes?
Yes, but they should keep their own ROMs updated.
No?

Unrender, you are the unrender of FrAndroid ?
If anyone know how to use the Blue ROM, can he say to me how to do ? Thanks
What I would like to see is something based on ext2 conversions, eg. motafoca's, use the modified kernel (which is said to be the best?) and then think about all the themes, etc. That'd be the perfect rom for me

i deal a lot with tech support for various electronics. believe me... ppl who know nothing or very little ALWAYS think everything's easy
Lol But I know a mate that knows alot and still says everythings easy
Yes, it is easy, but every dev wants his android to look the way he wants it. If you want, you can make your own custom theme for the ROM you're using Just go to the theming part of the XDA board (the general one, not the X8 specific )
Could anyone at least tell if it's possible to copy files (and which ones) to copy the theme from 2.1 stock version of android for Xperia X8. If it's impossible, then… well, will have to stick with what we have.

[ROM Q] would people like a sense ROM

uhmmm ok people calm down this is not a flame thread? thanks for showing maturity and anyways what makes me really like the sense rom's? its because its different and i am really bored of roms that are out here they are almost all the same ? and i really love the sense widgets !
I'm really sorry for taking other mods and including them
I gave them credits moreover I have themed it
And for ur kind info I have developed roms only if u bothered to check bit they r stupid
Anyways is it okay if I give a ROM which looks and feels a minimal version of sense but have semc arc stuff and fast
