Possible Stupid Question - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've heard that to get a ROM that would have Froyo plus SenseUI you'd have to wait until HTC released a version that has those together and it gets rooted. What I don't understand is couldn't a developer find out how to separate the SenseUI from a current ROM and build it into Froyo when it's released to the public?

Possibly but not realistically. Sense is very much integrated into the system. Extremely deeply integrated. Framework files and all. So while it's possible it's not too realistic.

Sorry, I thought the developer forum would be appropriate since its a development type question.

It's more of a common knowledge thing. Google makes the different versions of android then the supplier adds the extra crap.

Good question.
SDK = System Development Kit
This are the tools to build the ROM now you have to wait for the "chefs" to start cooking...since many things are device specific i dont know how long will take to have a stable rom,probablly when HTC Stable 2.1 rom is leaked.
You want to install the development kit (for writing Android apps on the computer) on your phone?
The Android 2.1 SDK is now online and available. Have at it Devs

now all the gaps will be filled. chefs will take the missing parts will integrate in their roms to make their roms perfect. so you need to wait for some time as chefs need free time to develop roms. so just be a little be patient and give our awesome devs some time.

Maybe HTC also have been waiting for this? And that's why it is taking so long time?
But not that it matters. The way KaguDroid is developing I doubt I will ever go back to something Sense-based. Tried the hybrid Espresso ROM all of yesterday and totally missed KaguDroid.
BTW; I find it really weird that I am not experiencing any of the problems others are with KaguDroid.
I totally agree with you raskall!
Since we will have social network in the next version + live wallpapers + bluetooth, i won't miss sense

No - the SDK contains the tools and libraries to build applications for Android 2.1. It is AOSP that is required to build the OS.

[Q] How do I revert to original ROM?

After 5 days (seriously) attempting to root my phone I think I finaly managed (I think) and I also installed the CyanogenMod 6.0 ROM which I REALLY don't like it. I actually like the original ROM minus the T-Mobile crap that comes along with it (locked items etc).
Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to remove the CyanogenMod ROM and get back on the original ROM? Is there a ROM that just gets rid of the locked items?
I am a noob and a step by step for idiots would be greatly appreciated
To revert to stock you need to get ESPRIMG.zip and put it in the root of your sdcard. Boot into the bootloader and it will automatically install stock.
Out of curiosity why did you flash CM6 after rooting, you could've stayed stock with root instead.

YAY someone replied!!! (Sorry the excitement but I have been posting for days on different forums and no response )
I think I have the ESPRIMG.zip already on there (it's the file that transfers when doing the initial root right?). Now what exactly do you mean by "put it in the root of your sdcard?" Like on its on and not in a folder?
To answer your question, i followed the instructions on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754669 and since it said to add a ROM and the link provided had several links I just looked for one. The CM6 seemed to have good reviews and I just went along with it.
I am a complete noob to flashing/rooting/hacking/etc... phones and thought it was actually needed.
Once I am in bootloader, I do nothing and let the phone act or do I have to select certain options?
Not true, although that is a way, but generally the espr.img file floating around is the engineering build, not stock. If you want the stock ROM with root simply install CR_MOD. It has the ota update applied as well as root maintained. You will also need to remove the espr.img file as it is only needed once.
One other thing, someone is going to do this, so I'll put it nicely.
This is the Development section, not Q&A. This doesn't really have anything to do with development of ROMs or apps, simply how to flash another ROM. There are many guides on how to flash a different ROM, and using the search feature (which you should have done) would have pointed you to CR_MOD which is a stock ROM. If you don't like some of the apps simply remove them from the zip file.
db, I actually did look and read a few http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705345 but they don't say if its for the slide or is it the 2.1 ... does that make sense?
Sorry if I am in the wrong forum, I was trying to be careful to post in the proper one but alas I was wrong a second time....
I just need to be pointed in the right direction and get a step by step guide for noobs in order not to screw my phone.
Would it be possible to transfer this post to the correct forum?
I appologize for the inconvenience.
A moderator can move the thread. There is a guide in this section on how to flash a rom, this section also has the CR_MOD thread where you can download the ROM.

Please respond! i would greatly appreciate it

Yes, it will. CR MOD is based off of Stock Espresso. It is a 2.1 ROM with the Espresso Sense, etc. It just has bloatware removed.
Just go to the rom bible or search for CR_MOD 1.35 OTA FULL and it should come up man. If you are patient ill post the link to the thread later and how to flash it.
On a side note... Whats up the questions threads in the development section lately??

For me, the word development = ROM sooooo I just put one and one together but I was wrong and this should have gone to the Q&A... sorry once again.
A link would be great. My eyes are seriously tired of reading and readin and reading for the past 5 days =/
Development = development. As in the developing of roms. Not asking questions about said roms. That's for the QUESTION & answer forum.

I really wish people would stop their banterings about being in the wrong forum. The latest sticky on rules in the dev forum states to use the Report button. All you have to do is click that button and a mod will move it faster than 10+ replies as to why it shouldn't be in this forum. Yeah it's frustrating, but getting it moved is only a click away.
To the OP: Use the ROM Bible to find good info on which ROM is which. The sections are named in a retarded fashion, but the section labeled "Before Espresso, Roms Made Sense!" will probably be the ones you want (Sense is the name of the UI that is from HTC and was the stock look of the software).

At the very top of this page there is a search option right? I copy pasted " CR_MOD 1.35 OTA FULL" and all I got were 9 results none of which where the actual link to it.

I wasn't trying to offend anybody here, including any of the CM/SGS devs. If I did, I apologise. I just noticed the link posted on get.cm and decided to create a thread to share the news that it was released, seeing as the other thread (judging from its title) seemingly did not apply to this update. I didn't claim anywhere that I had anything to do with the making of this file, as I obviously didn't, and I don't think your calling me a "worm" is in any way necessary or helpful.
EDIT: Also, someone can close this thread, seeing as it didn't fullfill the purpose I made it for.

pawitp will not make the thread i guess. There is a particular 'cyanogenMOD' named account from which all RC build threads are made for all devices.
This is really unnecessary. Any fool knows that in the CM9 toppic also indicated when a release comes out. Close this mess!!!!

Differences between Android Developement and Original Android Developement?

That's my question.
'Original' are ROMs that are made from source or different from stock. 'Android Development' is for ROMs based on the official HTC builds
I'm sure this has been covered before somewhere. I'll link if I can find it.
