I thought about this issue too and it interests me extremely !!!
Somebody knows about Android ROMs for Artemis or where can I find informations on this ??
No
Read the Android's FAQ. Basically it will only run on new unknown hardware.

Hello there,
Like you can see this is my first post, so I start with saying I am happy to find this place and to be here.
Just a little while now, I am a proud owner of a HTC Desire aka HTC Bravo.
Now i am a little into programming with languages like java c c++ c# and some other strange ones.
So you can feel where I'm going to maby... I wanna start of developing my own APP on my HTC Desire.
Now I have a strange feeling that it's different to develop for a Nexus One as for a HTC Desire, like maby the way drivers are installed etc.
So can anyone point me in the right direction to start off?
Thanks in advanced! DesireDroid

I found this article very informative: http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html
And you develop an app for Android, not for a specific phone.

Thnxs for your reply petz, I'm going to study that page carefully
I understand that you dev for Android, but there are allot of stories about apps only working on 1.5 or 1.6 , 2.1 etc.
Also the point to use the HTC Desire as a developers phone. Are there differences between developing (connecting the htc desire to the pc, and test your self made apps on it, so you need propper drivers etc... or are these the same as from the htc sync.exe ?) on the HTC Desire and a Nexus One for example?
I've only begun developing apps yesterday
As I understand it, you only use the functions provided by the Android SDK, so you don't need to use specific drivers. One app should work on every phone, as long as the phone has the appropriate functions (GPS, Wifi...). You can develop an app for a specific version of Android (1.5, 1.6, 2.1,...) If you use 2.1, older versions of Android won't be able to use the app.
Hey guys,
Just getting acquainted with my new Desire.
Looking on the HTC site, there is an official Telstra ROM update available for me (in Australia).
Just wondering if anyone knows how to obtain information on the changes HTC have made from one ROM to another...
http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=2&dl_id=1048
... is the updated ROM.
and...
http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=2&dl_id=1027
... is the version im running at the moment.
is this an Android 2.2 (Froyo) update?
any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks dudes.
Maybe I've been overlooking but I've never seen change logs on the HTC website.
As I look at the release date it should be Froyo 2.2 because 2.1 is pretty old now.
If you really want to be sure you can check the version by yourself by opening the RUU update executable installer you've downloaded. Monitor/scan it while for a rom.zip file which will be inside a temp folder and extract that, then extract a small user image file with 'unyaffs' to see the 'build.prop' file which includes information about the build etc..

Hey guys,
I finally got around to upgrading to the latest Official Telstra ROM.
I ended up performing the upgrade OTA (Over The Air), which was an absolute breeze. I didn’t have to do any backups prior to the upgrade, and it maintained all my settings/apps/data with no loss… of anything..
It ended up being the Froyo update (popup on device explained, though nothing mentioned on HTC site), and also included an updated version of sense.
So OTA updates for official ROMs are the way to go.
Cheers.
Hi,
I recently setup an Android build enviornment on my Ubuntu Machine using the following instructions on the android website (source.android.com/source/initializing.html). Using this, I am able to make my own .img images for Gingerbread 2.3.4 for many of the supported phones.
Yesturday, I built 2.3.4 for my Nexus One (Passion) and it works well. However, I need to build Gingerbread 2.3.4 for an HTC Dream (G1). Since HTC Dream is not supported (is not in the /devices/ folder), I found a device configuration for the dream and sapphire on github (github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_dream_sapphire) and cloned it into the /devices/ folder.
I am able to run the ./extract-files.sh fine using this clone but when I try to select it on the lunch menu to make it, I get errors. I was wondering what I should do and how I should go about building 2.3.4 for the HTC Dream? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi
Seeing so many Roms being cooked I was hoping someone could put up some links on what is needed to start. I did go to the Android site and installed java se sdk, Android sdk, eclipse but failed installing adt v12 plugin. It seems many people had trouble with this.
Any guide/link is appreciated.

Do you know a bit of java already?
I'm thinking that might be a fairly key component...
