Hi, Sorry if this is a dumb question. Can I flash DHD roms in mytouch 4g with glacier kernel? I don't know much about porting. If I have to port a rom
how to do it?

To my knowledge, you can't. I could be wrong, but I believe that every phone is unique in it's ports. I do believe that the DHD is extremely similar to ours, but I'm not completely sure that you could flash one of their roms. You could test it, but I strongly recommend making a nandroid backup first.
Dont even try it,unless u want a mytouch paper weight,i suggest you read up in the stickies section so u dont damage your phone!!!

Its really no big deal man.. I just did flash cm11 for ace on my glacier and all it did was not install. I was wanting to see if it would at least boot. (it doesn't) So now I'm going to try and port it for myself. Cause I'm sure cm11 for glacier is coming
Actually once I flashed a DHD rom mistakenly. When it didn't boot I flashed a glacier kernel an it worked fine. It gave me one or two "not reponding" msgs though.

I don't think it would end in a brick. The Kernel partion is called the same thing as the Glacier's.
For Cm11, I'm pretty sure Team Hydra will compile a build for us. If they don't, I'll try to port them over from the DHD
To port a rom, google for guides. Then it won't boot most likely. Do a logcat and PM, I'll try to help, I don't know much but I've experienced some errors I could help with.

I used a method that someone posted here to get ROMANAGER 3.0.0.
Now it can't flash anything.
How do I revert it back?
It's called working on CM7...
I'd head desk, but i'd only be feeding the trolls.
But how come villain is beating him to the punch?
gingervillain is based off builds of cm7 so.... yeah.
So from what I understand, cyanogen is hard at work, building a masterpiece, while Villain is taking the intermediate "prototypes" and releasing it, with a few minor tweaks of his own?
Have you flashed some of the unofficial cm7 builds?

Yup pretty much... also, I belive CM is gearing to start running the nightlies again, as the current cmsrc if really stable.
I'm running CM7 right now. I think the OP is terribly uninformed.

You got ClockworkMod 3.0. To flash to 2.x just use ROM Manager to flash the recovery.

nvm i solved it.
I have downloaded the following rom: PG59IMG_Doubleshot_TMOUS_1.28.531.8_Radio_10.48.9007.00U_10.12.9007.07_M2_release_201296_signed.zip
which I believe is the official TMOUS rom for the doubleshot. will it work on the MT4G? I am hesitant to install it as I don't want to screw my phone up to the point where I brick it, can anyone provide some guidance as to if you have tried it, if so, what were the results, thanks in advance.
Under no circumstances should you flash it on to your phone. It has an hboot, radio, and rom that are all incompatible with our hardware. Flashing an incorrect hboot or radio makes your phone a brick. If you want to run the doubleshot rom, search google for raftvittos doubleshot port.

Im no dev...but probably not 1) you might brick your device 2) Im pretty sure if it boots youll lose root....just wait for a ďev to cook it up IMHO.
Don't flash it. For the love of god, do not flash it. Unless of course you want a $600 paperweight.

Its very easy , and there loads of tutorials on how to.
What you need to do is , Root bye superoneclick,Get clockwork from rom manager, then flash a XXJVQ or what ever from Samfirmware.com then install the rom .zip Easier than our phones (KDZ updater)
The easiest will still be the nexus series all u need to do is boot into boot loader unlock and flash a new rom

The ROM won't boot, but if you don't believe me, try flashing it and see for yourself. If DHD ROMs were compatible with the MT4G, there would be a whole lot of happy MT4G owners running those ROMs. There's a reason DHD ROMs have to be ported specifically for the MT4G (see RCMix Sense 3.5, for example).

yes i'm using it. but the important thing is which files to replace and keep. i have read tutorial about porting sense to other sense device but it's too general. i think it doesn't need to replace all driver or libs because MT4G and dhd is identical in hardware.
any idea which files to replace? i have extract beatmod bliss sense (which is multi device rom) to find out the specific files for MT4G. but when i replace the files (and some rename from spade to glacier) with files in beatmod i got bootloop.

Well you need to get a MT4G compatible kernel first... that requires a Linux system to decompile the boot.img. then you need, of course, to edit the build.prop so that the device says Glacier instead of DHD...
Also, you can't use beat mod bliss sense files on flydom ROM because they are two different ROMs. One is Sense 3.5, the other is Sense 3.0...
Hope this helps
Also, please ask the dev (zfreak) before porting. Who knows? He might be able to help you out.

No, because like i said before, you need to change the kernel. And to do that requires a Linux machine...
Beat mod bliss sense ROM is Sense 3.5. This one is Sense 3.0.

alright, dsixda's kitchen has a feature to edit the boot.img,i'll search for the tutorial.
i thought difference between sense 3.5 and 3.0 only in app, framework, and some libs. i dont think that for fundamental files like drivers also different. so i use beatmod.
To port a rom from dhd you need to replace boot.img the wifi module a couple camera libs and the key layout and keychars in /system/usr I'm sure there's something else but can't remember off the top of my head

1) you are not bricked if you can get to download mode
2) find the post for going back to factory. You will have to use odin. There is also a post something like "restoring from the brink". I think that one is a sticky.
