Sigh - EVO Shift 4G General

Have we lost all dev support for the Shift?

Not "all" but it looks like the majority of developers have moved on to newer phones.

No we have not :silly: . It just means that others need to step up, and start Dev'ing . Happens on all devices, people come, people go.

It makes me want to start but I am pretty sure I need to wipe my laptop because I can't even get ADB working, I know a little and would like to at least start porting

I still have a year before my contract is up, 6 months before I can upgrade so I am holding onto this shift till the keyboard falls off

even with most of the devs gone theres still alot of good roms to choose from, thats my view on it. it was a good run and im still using the shift.

I wouldn't say they're all gone. Plus new ones will be born :cyclops: . Personally I'll be on the Shift for a while .

Very true, it's just depressing to not see any new ROMs after a couple weeks... I still love my Shift but I like to have new toys to play with every once and a while

Yeah we were seeing like one every week or so for a while there . Or at least an Update weekly. But it just means things have slowed a bit till the new crop of Devs comes along .

IMHO there is not much left to Dev but people are working on it, when they have time.

Sprint to anounce release date of supersonic?

I seen a rumor that sprint premium account holders got a message saying look out for an announcement of a groundbreaking new device tomorrow. Supersonic anyone?
http://www.fonearena.com/blog/2010/03/23/htc-supersonic-to-be-announced-on-march-24.html
I love it. We are such phone geeks that we get excited about an announcement of another annoucement. I read VZW is announcing the Nexus tomorrow and been inpatiently wating. We are proud nerds.
I don't think it will be the Nexus. It will be the HTC incredible or maybe both?

I remember the days when I actually started the countdown to get my EVO on launch date... damn that was the best phone back then (tech wise).

I bought it the day after launch then got the Evo 3d on launch day. Now I just bought a used one off ebay for my mom to replace her Hero(my old phone before the 4g) It's been a blast playing around with one again. My 3D is better in almost every respect theres 2 things that bother me though. First is the new aspect ratio on the screen, the second is the great roms. We don't even have a rc for cm7 yet and our ics is nowhere near the 4g.
You'll be getting the real deal with ICS, so who cares how far along progress on something thats gonna get replaced is?
I wouldnt build ICS for the 3VO if its just gonna be replaced by an OTA. Wait for it to drop and customize from there.
The EVO 4g on the other hand, has a lot of development going on simply because its the only way we are going to get it.
sure is amazing the development that goes on for this phone. most other phones get left in the dust way sooner.

i like my sense so i'll wait for the official build from HTC.
I think the camera won't work with it, but I'd like to play with it. Let us have it, Koush! You're the man!
This is what I have been waiting for! Now only if there was an easier root process!

Why wouldn't the camera work ?
He tweeted earlier about issues with the camera. This is the first build do something is bound to be broken. I still want to run it though.

It's Koush man, he's almost as good as Cyanogen. There will be some kind of build for us to use within the next week. I HIGHLY doubt everything will be working, but we'll have something to play with at least!

That's what all the Droid owners (myself included) thought until we got Froyo on our phones. Turned out that flash wasn't all that great on a phone even when it works. Sure you can watch South Park, but it isn't like it makes much of a difference to your everyday use of the phone.

oh noes

we have been moved to the legacy / low-activity thread
It was bound to happen eventually :/
私のEVO 3Dから送信される。
Legacy fits to be fair, even if the activity isn't that low with the awesome work going on for ICS
Legacy or not I'm still developing for the Hero
私のEVO 3Dから送信される。
agreed I have seen some amazing stuff come from the Hero devs lately. Keeps me satisfied until i decide to upgrade.
Legacy or not we're still kickin!!
yep the devs here are great... i love my little Hero.
They actually did this before and switched us back because of the uproar. I doubt we will see the enthusiasm of the days of yore. Too many people have left us with the outpouring of 4g choices and enough built in memory to not have to use a tweak such as Firerat's.
It doesn't matter where we are located, it' still good of a device for devs not to take up the challenge to get something impossible running on it. Remember "they" said we didn't have the hardware to run froyo. I guess the reality is that they didn't have the balls.

Cm9 alpha release for shift???

I've seen posts about cm9 alphas in other threads. Has there not been one released for the shift? I guess these are compiles by folks but I haven't noticed one mentioned for the shift. I was just curious if any of you guys know of one or have ran one. Maybe I have overlooked it.

Evervolv uses a lot of the CM members source code. That's about as close to cm9 as your going to get for now.

toastcfh has been working on cm9 for the shift and the 3d but since hes a perfectionist (which is a great thing of course) he hasnt shared with anyone to try yet that im aware of. itll be worth the wait im sure
Rest assured, there will be a million threads about it on here when it's posted. He's working on it still.
By the time it's done and said most shifters will have moved onto newer phones lol.

Gotcha. I agree that its good to have someone with high expectations working on it. The more, the better. I was just curious. It just seemed as if there was more chatter about alphas in the past few days.

I just got my shift maybe 2 months ago. I love it. However, I wonder how (with CREDO Mobil) I could shift out of it if I wanted to go to the Nexus.
Though, like Vicodan, I am waiting til the ICS Slider comes out. I love having a physical keyboard..., i've tried a number of ROMs and I always go back to the CM7 w/Scary... yep. The others just eat way too much battery life for me.
Please oh please, ICS..., come home soon. It is my birthday week so, if there was ever a better time..now would be it.
Thanks to allt he Developers working out the code! You are all geniuses for sure.

Thanks for the shoutout. As for Credo mobile check the boost mobile thread in Q&A (pinned) I'm currently running mikshifted-G + dodge kernel 1.6. My zip is almost finished uploading. Will update the thread when done.

Close to on topic. Talked to Samsung support today. Was told jelly bean will be end of month to mid next month. Hope that will spark the dev for this device. Guess its not as popular as I imagined it would be. With that said still a great device
