Desire C - possible port for ICS? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hello everyone
I noticed that Desire C was introduced.
It's hardware looks very similar to our old Hero.
I'm curious, would it be possible to port ICS + Sense. Not sure about the ARM (6 or 7?)on the Desire, I remember that this caused problems in the past.
What do You guys think ?
Cheers!

I think that it's not possible. We have from where to port ICS - Eris, HeroC.
But why did you do a thread in Development Area?

Hi there
Yeah, it should be general or qa section, I was so hyped by the possibility of port, that I posted without thinking.
Sorry about that, can someone move this thread to aproptiate section?
Cheers

I don't agree, I think this could be possible for many reasons. But what I can say is that if the devs of the Samsung galaxy ace are capable of porting sense 4 to their device, I see no reason ( except ram) that could make us think that the port is impossible
To finish, many people say that ics is in a way lighter than gb, in general. So there is only a sense port remaining.
But as the specs are quite similar...why would it be impossible?

I think this will be same like with explorer sense 3.5,it will be ported sooner or later...

lol, gay! =)
jk.
in other hands, there are few devs left on the old hero. who will port it? no one!

Guys, the DesireC is the Eris. Or have I missed something?
The DesireC doesn't have a Sense ICS build, they have an AOSP build. Our AOSP build is ported from theirs.

yes, I think we're not a lot on this forum but we know we're a good team together ^^,
Look, personally, I would never have thought that ICS would work on our little hero.
But if it runs as smooth as i'd like it to be, I think I would reconsider the fact I want a one x

Can't deodex it

why not.
change api level to 15

Why deodexing it? It's already deodexed for most apks
I'm trying to cook it a bit but this ROM is so HUGE!!
I just can't believe it would be possible to flash it in system/app
I think we'd better try to have as a base the modules from the working ICS, shouldn't we?
----------------------
EDIT 1
Hey hey!! I cleaned up the System/app folder and now it's size is...144MB...without mail, and without calendar...what a shame!!
But System/ stills 376MB...we're almost there!!
We need to be less than approximatively 190MB (accepting the fact that we will need custom mdt partionning)

I got the whole /system down to 270MB. But I had do delete quite a lot of APKs... I don't have time to work on it more right now though, maybe later.

I got rom size araund 160 mb but can't install it,i think problem is in update - script maybe...

[IDEA] - Porting Launcher2.apk from MIUI to other roms

Hi all,
Due to some issues with Market etc, I had this thought that maybe the best elements of MIUI could be taken from the ROM and ported into ASOP or some other rom e.g. Cyanogen.
Is this possible anyone think?
Cheers,
M
where do you want to port to? Froyo?MIUI is a Froyo dude, to Sense rom?does it necessary?

The Launcher UI to another ROM base I mean chris
I know MIUI is based upon AOSP Froyo, I am on about taking the UI elements from MIUI but putting them into a ROM we can develop with e.g. source code available, fix issues e.g. market displaying incorrect, so on and so forth.

I'd love to have all the components of the miui launcher but without that dock and dialer..I'd much rather have the sense dock/dialer/launcher on the miui rom..that would be perfect but i cant imagine that ever happening lol I love the folders,editing mode,notification panel,scrolling,and lock screen of the miui, huge improvement over the aosp imo

Anyone think we will see the source code for the Launcher released to Cyanogen any time soon?

lo.. u guys have so much dreams!! Like me hahha... i tried to install launcher2.apk from adb nd it says invalid apk.. so i think its up to devs to do that lol.. nd i like all miui mods to be on cm7 based roms or cm7 .. i like miui but it has to much bugs on it so i m now on mexdroid mod aio htc glacier
MIUI Launcher is apart of MIUI ROM framework...it is very hard to port it to another rom , and also we don't have MIUI source code...
Wow you really dug this one up from the grave. Oct 2010? But someone did make a copy/theme of the MIUI launcher. Check out https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher.miui&hl=en

Using Gingerbread as a base presumably?
Given the amount of "non-standard" hardware in the SGS2, you'll need support libs from either an existing non-AOSP OEM firmware, or from CM7 won't you?
great.. i hope u will port in a bunch of days

Lol no he can't. There isn't a FULL system dump of the Galaxy Nexus yet. There is only the dump from the SDK. He will probably theme it like Ice Cream Sandwich. Anyways good luck to the dev
source is the power, says cyanogen. wont this be useless when the sources are released? wont this feel like wasting cuz when sources is released, other devs will easily make those ICS roms, instead of porting it.
well anyway good luck to the dev!

That's not the point. Of course, a dump would be a lot better. But being the first to port and get a working SDK rom... Now that's where the fun is
It is possible, we have the full SDK ROM.

I for one don't see this working as every device seems to be getting the same LibC error at the moment (except for some reason the G2).
The best hope seems to be getting a HC rom to work then using the boot.img from that to boot the ICS sdk port. (this is what we believe happened with the G2 to get it to boot)
I would be satisfied with the new gmail application including widget
Cheers!
Looking to try .Hope you have a great ICS.

[Project] Porting MIUI

Since the xperia x10 mini, galaxy mini and various other ARMV6 ldpi/mdpi devices are all getting MIUI v4 ports, whats the possibility of getting a port to the wildfire. This thread is just to raise awareness of it, and trying to get some developers involved. I may attempt to get a basic port from the galaxy fit or x10 mini working by using the basic tools in the rom kitchen. But thats the best I can do.
xperia x10 mini rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511495
Oh god I hope this goes through and we get a working MIUI ROM.
I've been loving how MIUI looks ever since I first saw it
This sounds nice. Hopefully someone might look into it.
Sounds good to me, I was reading a thread about how they ported it for an mdpi device earlier today, it still sounds like a lot of work resizing but I think it can be done eventually.
I just read that the Armv6 version probably won't have themes.
I'm afraid it's unlikely themes will ever work because of the proprietary binary which MIUI uses to apply themes. It compiled for arm7 only.

If you're going to use that tutorial, use the X10 Mini/Mini Pro version of MIUI most MIUI apps are resized to QVGA. We may have the possiblity of having themes in the future, since more apps are going to be opensourced. Anyway, thanks for providing the link to the tutorial. I'll try it out later.
UPDATE: Turns out its perfectly possible to port between two LDPI devices, I'll get a copy of Ubuntu setup tonight or tommorow, to start editing and compiling. I'll post any updates here.

I'll PM the creators of both the X10 Mini and Galaxy Mini rom in a bit. If anyone can, try the tutorial that nejc121 posted. I've had trouble getting the final zip to flash. But maybe I'm doing something wrong..
UPDATE: Think I figured out the issues with my zip. Recompiling and testing in a minuite.
UPDATE II: Didn't work, can someone else try out the tutorial and see what kind of end results they get?
UPDATE III: Final update of tonight. Returned the update-script back to default ICS. leaving out the offending code from the MIUI tutorial.

ok... but basically my idea is to port a fuly-working rom to the wildy, instead of a cm-dependant one. If a cm7 based miui exists and it's compatible with wildfire, that would be great, it won't be as cool as ICS but it would be a starting point even for other developers, who can still work with android 2.x if they want to;
that's something i'll try to do, i definetly want miui on wildfire, not necessarly ICS miui.

[DEV] Sense 3.5 Development

So after all these threads regarding Sense 3.5 which none worked out in a solution to having this rom stable and resized for our device i started fixing it all by myself because i want this on my phone so much. Anyone who would actually help me in resizing the rom and fixing any issues or providing logcats and stuff and be interested in the development of Sense 3.5 pm me. Development may take a lot of time but we don't have to hurry. Im not saying that i will be the one to fix it immediately, this is just an attempt.
This is the most functional rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1564495
Why not submit the idea to TeamBuzz? I'm sure we could organize roles for developers in TeamBuzz to do something with Sense 3.5
Nice idea Justice, I can help with logcat and resizing, however i have no idea in how to fix gps,bt and wifi
@rayven18 can you provide a link of the most functional sense 3.5 rom for buzz, a list of what needs resizing, what fc and things that doesn't work?
Thanks in advance
Here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1564495 This is currently the most functional sense 3 rom. It boots and you can work on it. The bugs i know is the ones mentioned in the original thread (framework-res and com.htc.resources need resizing, gps and some services dont function) Because its based on Android Gingerbread 2.3.5, we can experiment with replacing libs and baksmaling services.jar and framework.jar and replace the code with the one from a cm rom that might make the gps and other things work just fine
Lol, 1st i will say good luck.
Now please dont take this as a nasty post but it did make me laugh..... You say " after all these threads regarding sense 3.5..... " and now youve just made another one.
Seriously though goodluck with any developments.
