[ROMS] We want more - Galaxy 3 General

Seriously, there's about 3 roms that still get updates and work correctly. Can we get more? Please? I don't mind waiting up to a year as long as we get more. This makes me want to get a optimus one too

Yeah.. We didn't tell you to buy this phone.. You can't tell us what to do and what not to do.. We all have our own jobs.. Who gives us money? No, not for free..

And if you arent satisfied, you can develop ur own rom

Who needs more roms? We have like 5 major roms and 5 minor that recieve updates regulary and are quite similar except for one, CM stands out. More kernels would be great, or maybe newer kernels like 2.6.37 - I hope marcellusbe and dharam pull that off, it will rock for sure!

Why do you think anyone has it and if they did, why would they want to give it to you with that attitude?
No one has it, you cannot download it. This info is free......of course.
Im sick of hearing people about the 700s now get updates and compaining about. Your phone is old and they are developing a new one for the wm6 to take advantage of new technology.
I wouldn't count on an update for the 700 series. Hopefully we get an update for the 750 series

I know I have a dinosaur and I understand it's a P.O.S most likely but it's what I have for now. I must ask, if no one is willing to make a wm6 ROM for the 700w, do you think by chance they would consider making the LG Today Screen Plug-In work. I'd about give a left nut to have it on my dinosaur.

Lovely... so there are no general WM6/6.1 ROMs that could generically work? Or must they have a certain set of drivers? If this is the case... how close in terms of hardware is the 750?

WM6....yes... not WM6.1... Sheesh...
Haha, yes, but if I were still on WM5, I'm sure any upgrade would feel nice

uh oh... im getting bored with the hero

so im starting to get bored with the device now. i really hope the official 2.1 update comes out soon so we can get some fully working roms.
any recommendations guys to keep my hero fresh?
What is this, a phone or an arcade? So a fully working ROM will keep you entertained for what, a few weeks until Google decides to bring out Android 3.0? And you know your device is not gonna support it. Wanna keep it fresh? Dont use it as much.

huh?
im asking what you guys recommend. im coming from winmo where i was always flashing and customizing.
AOSP 1.6 with MetaMorph
Its not like you have millions of ROMs to choose from... theres only a few, some work completely, some work to a point. Check the wiki and ROM pages.

yeah that's what annoys me. why does the hero gsm have soo many more options, themes and roms? makes no sense to me. it seems every new phone i move to has serious limitations.
GSM Hero has been out longer than CDMA Hero, almost every version of Android is from a GSM phone so porting sometimes is easier.

Start tinkering. It's one thing to flash other people's ROMs and hacks, it's quite another to actually get your hands dirty and learn the internal workings of the OS and the features you like.
That should keep you busy for a while
Ain't no thang
I'm getting bored too... Especially those lonely nights that I pass locked up in my dungeon playing Warhammer by myself.. I make up scenarios where my army is a constant battle to find the perfect phone in the land of Phandora.
I'd give it shot...Meaning making my own rom but I have little time as it is to pick up another hobby..
I was getting bored also until I started following Darchstar's Roms. I am really excited about his 2.1 aosp rom Its a fresh feeling after leaving sense. Give it a shot.
who cares if you're bored? If you don't like it get another phone or learn to hack.
Starting learning to do dev work. This forum is for sharing of information and knowledge of CDMA Hero.
Not how bored you are.
If you're bored, get an iPhone.
You'll come crawling back in at least 48 hours...
+1 to trying darchstar's 2.1 AOSP. It's my favorite ROM right now, especially after removing some stuff I don't want. You can always start working out if you're bored too... try P90X.

its not so much he was being an ass (was it a little harsh yes) but I mean I kinda agree with what everyone is saying learn to do the stuff. I mean people are complaing that there arent enough roms to choose from so start making them. if I had the time right now to actually learn how to cook I would but I just dont have the time. So I wait paciently for the devs to do there voodoo.
okay guys, i was just sorta bored yesterday. didn't mean to cause a ruckus, ill probably keep myself entertained when a fully working 2.1 rom comes out. and to the poster who said this section is only for development, your wrong, this is the hero general section as well.

waiting patiently is boring.....and bored does not mean he isn't busy. I work 12 hrs a day 7 days a week and always bored but always busy. to the OP once the US gets a decent Winmo handset ill be going back. the only problem is the whole windows 7 series wont be able to compete with android out the door. so it will have to be a winmo 6.5 device for me.

What are the aosp parts to htc parts

after searching couldnt find any relevant literature on this...im basically trying to create my own build off of someone elses rom to suite my needs...dont worry im not going to be releaseing or anything...but i i wanna know all the AOSP stuff (music dialer mms)apks i can replace with the htc counter parts to make the truest aosp rom i can with least amount of htc stuff possible.......thanks for anyone who can possibly help me out on this one
Check this ROM out, might get ya going in the right direction!

thanks i was kind of looking something for a sprint based rom just to be safe...i basically wanna take out as much htc stuff out that will permit and replace it all with aosp theres a couple people who have done this but didnt fully "AOSP-IZE" it thanks tho appreciate the link
Because if you read,
AOSP-IZING the sprint rom caused it not to have a camera, and all of the experienced devs gave up, because it really wasn't possible......
But good luck..

Not that IM that experienced, but i know a bit about compiling and *nix. I am attempting to build it, its not going to be ready any time soon. Important things right now are touch screen dont work, cam etc.
I really dont care at this point if aosp means I have to downgrade camera to 3MP then so be it. Not all of us have given up... Some are just taking breaks, and some are waiting for htc to release the source after the timeframe is up for the 2.1 official rollouts.
So dont get your hopes up from me, I am just saying dont give up and there are quite a few of us out there that want the aosp love.

[Q] No Custom Roms?

am i missing something or there really is no custom ROM for Flipout? no cyanogen, MIUI, cronos or anything? the only custom rom i found is (ROM) FlipDroidMod2.1_SoftMod[wip](no blur) ..is that all? i don't wanna complain or anything.. i'm just surprised as i have Milestone and there's plenty of ROMs for that one though it has locked bootloader like Flipout..

it was an auction server like ebay.. some guy bought it last month, tried it and didn't like it so i bought it from him for 238$ which was pretty good since i'd have to pay 415$ if i wanted to buy it by myself from a shop.
here i can find it for 110 euros
http://www.monclick.it/schede/motorola/SM2102AD3H1/flipout.htm
I started forgetting shops and ebay for phones:
- online stores or mobile providers for phones
- ebay for covers, repair kits, batteries and accessories
btw, I'm using it @500mhz with no prob (you can set it to max 250mhz too to save battery) so it can support gingerbread easily
Motorola is quite strange: it uses .sbf roms instead of common .zip ones
So clockwork recovery must be ported and then roms can be cooked easily I guess
With this price it can find a place in many pockets and the physical keyboard is a plus for it

110EUR is a great price.. maybe even a weird price
i'd get it from online store as well but than that offer came up so i took advantage of it.
anyway, it seems to have the same processor (Cortex-A8) as my Milestone/Droid so it might be a good thing to port it from other Motorola device like this. Well that might sound pretty stupid 'cause it might be so obvious.. i really don't know anything about porting, sorry. I also have Openrecovery which seems to be a port of clockwock. Guess i'm gonna ask somebody with porting experience..

first, i actually meant just Milestone, not Milestone XT..
second, TI OMAP3410 is Cortex-A8 based..
OMAP is apparently something like chipset (SoCs) so though Milestone has different "chipset" from Flipout.. both have the same CPU core (Cortex-A8) though the devices still might be running different frequencies as the Cortex has wide frequency scaling range
..so it still might be a chance for a good porting base... i guess..
and the price seems to me suspiciously low, but that might be only because in here the Flipout is expensive.

so it's probably time to open a moonclick/amazon store in your country too !
I just got an unlocked flipout...kind of impulsively when I thought I had lost my phone (less than 1 year into its 2 year contract)....probably wouldn't have if I had read the forum first. But, my old phone turned up....
So, if there's a way to upgrade its ROM, I'm interested. And, I'd be interested in helping....its been a long time since I've done anything like this, but sounds like something I could dive into now (though I may still activate my FlipOut just so I can get data occasionally when I'm not near WiFi...)
The Dreamer.
So.. i have my new Flipout. Gotta tell it's an awesome thing.. though the display is really bad. Anyway, i already had to flash it several times i hated the old lockscreen so i modded framework-res with resources from froyo..but it has some weird issue which i hope get fixed somewhere in the config files.
Another thing.. phone memory. I'm not an app freak but i like my.. apps, ok i'm a freak. Anyways.. i'm already running low on phone storage so right now i'm heading for memhack.. if anyone already done that with Flipout, let me know.
EDIT: ok, i've just built in memhack and it's working now so never mind. if anyone interested, i can post instructions.

Why are all the custom roms for the Galaxy On5 made for Europeon Variants?

So, I am a little frustrated, and I am sure this has been answered but I cant seem to find the answer.(at least not one that makes sense anyway) . Why on earth are all the custom roms made for European variants of our beloved cell phones? I have spent tireless hours combing through the hundreds of youtube videos, and dozens of forum posts, to only find one single Custom ROM that works correctly for the Galaxy on5 SM-G550T1. (Thank you to czarsuperstar for giving us The Superstarz Rom, You did it right and finished the job.)
I know I am a noob and all and I definitely am no DEV, but could someone please help me and explain this to me like I am a 2 year old. Why is there no US variants of custom mods? Now I have looked up several different phones but to no avail, unless you own a samsung NOTE or S series your just out of luck. And NO, a rom that has no sound is NOT complete, just sayin.
I know that building one of these custom roms is not an easy task, god knows my dumb ass couldnt do it, but if your going to build something, please finish the job, I mean I would never give you a house I built, that was short a roof.
Signed,
Frustrated

No worries bro I've been porting a rom just for our g550t1 give me little bit because my job barely have time but it will get done. Also I still need to ask for permission befor posting. Just want to make sure everything is right
That is awesome! I really enjoy my on5 and I would really hate to have to buy a different phone. I know it is not high end but it has become part of who i am, so much that I bought a second one for myself just in case some tragedy were to happen to my beloved On5. I am looking forward to your work and hope to further my experience as, what I call myself, a tech geek in training. maybe someday I will be able to build a rom and repay all the ones who have helped me in my journey. I aspire to be half as smart as those of you who do build custom roms. Thank you for the work you are doing and I cannot wait to see what you have in store
Yeah this is the first phone i ever rooted, only new to this bout 2 months. But it is sad that i cant find a sweet ROM for G550T1 mPCS. But it seems that whoever can Master this model will be shiznit. But dying to get rid of this stock ROM.

Well since I posted this there has very little help in the way of getting a ROM made or even ported one for the G550T1, So I figured I would take upon myself to educate myself in the ways of the force. It hasnt been easy but I think I may be close to having an actually working ROM, That has sound and everything, imagine that, sound. Its only taken me what 2 months to gain headway. So, bro keep your head up there may be light at the end of the tunnel yet.
