Hello devs,
I have red that Donut has been released.
HTC has released its update. I have already updated my Hero. Because there is no Java, I want to install Modaco's ROM.
My question is: can I expect a donut-release in a short time?
If so, then I will wait updating to Modaco, because of losing all data.
if you are just missing the java implementation i would recommend you this Thread or rather the way that worked for me Link
What update are you talking about from HTC? build 2.73.405.5 is still 1.5 (cupcake). I'm a little confused.
The sdk for donut has been released. Sure that the firmware is on course for its October release.

This is what confuses me. He says he already updated his Hero. The SDK is released, not the firmware..correct?

yes thats correct
He's just saying he installed the official HTC update that MoDaCo leaked a few weeks ago. Now he wants to go MoDaCo (perhaps because it's prerooted, installs apps on the sd and so on). He is just wondering whether it's a good idea, if 1.6 is released very soon.
No, 1.6 will not be released very soon (at least not as a HTC Hero Rom), so go ahead and flash with MoDaCo, if you feel you need it. Your phone won't get much faster than with the official update, but at least you'll have something to play around with.
just a quick question, i have MoDaCo rom installed on my hero and if i download the HTC official update would i lose root? and will android 1.6 can be download as a custom rom?
by the way:
what does leaked mean in this context? is it really some kind of "ripped" or how do we have to understand this?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd assume someone working for HTC or testing the ROM put the files online.

That would be the definition of leaked, yes, which is probably how we got this ROM pre official release.

Sorry if this sounds very noobish, but how do you install apps to the SD card? I installed a couple of apps after moving to Modaco's Rom, but I do not know how to install them to the SD card instead of the phone's memory. Are they by default installed on the SD card with Modaco's Rom?
Thanks in advance for the clarification.

Dont really want to help you hijack this thread away from the intended purpose, but if you were specifically asking about modaco's rom, next time it might be wise to read or "SEARCH" his thread keywords so that you can find your answer. Indeed there are a few answers in that thread that help you to find out if your apps are installing to SD.
But to answer your question, if your card is partitioned (Fat32,swap,ext3) then your apps will be installed to your sd card by default from Modaco's rom.
Thank you and my apology if I've drifted from the thread subject. Next time, do not answer me if I'm drifting and I'll know where to look somewhere else.
Thanks for your info.
cyanogen has already released the new version, but unfortunately this is not for hero

There's no update yet! It's just the SDK that's been released.
Assuming we have root access by then (I really hope we do) will you be waiting for HTC to release the Sense version of it or are you going to upgrade to stock Android in the meantime?

after having experienced android being, modded by htc and then buggered by orange, i'm hoping we can root the desire as i'd like to go straight to a pure android o/s

same here i hate what orange has done to the rom it descusts me since this is my first branded handset for about 5 years now and i am used to the generic version got very good and the flashing process on winmo now stuck on android v.confusing.
Don't hold your breath Read this:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...s-in-may-require-froyo-we-have-sign-up-links/
If this is true ... FroYo (the next Android OS build iteration) will be next month together with Flash 10.1.
Then we can pray every night to have root access + write permission to the system partition !
I really hope we do have root access. Not having proper flash is really bugging me.
Either we get root or HTC Have a sense version very quick after the FroYo release.
Doesn't the HTC Evo 4g have froyo? Would be ported over.

The 2.1 update for the Hero still hasn't been released despite 2.1 having been released a good while ago.
But then again, the EVO 4G and the Desire have the exact same level of processing power so I don't see why HTC would delay the update in any way.
Let's hope HTC don't let us down.
whats the problem with the Flash thats on the desire? I have not had any non-loading flash sites at all yet

It gets bogged down by heavy sites. I want flash to work just aswell as it does on my desktop.
New flash version will most probably have hardware acceleration, and all the functions flash 10.1 has on the desktop.
And -hopefully- it will be a fully optimized version of Flash. So it's actually doable on a mobile device. But I guess that is the only way for it to be succesful.
And just to be prepared, I'm programming all my new flash applications to be able to run on mobile devices (min resolution of 800x480). I'm going openscreen project, multiplatform, multi os, multi mobile devices!
If the rumors about the change in how the OS will update then I cannot see too much trouble sorting out Sense for it as it will only be compatibility checks with the core components and allow for any new core features.
Plus going by @gogol's post there will be a lot of pressure on HTC to release Sense quick smart for it with full Flash support. For all we know HTC may already be working on it just because we don't know whats coming with Froyo doesn't mean the companies haven't got a pre-release ROM

They more than likely do as they are releasing the EVO 4G with FroYo in about 2-3 weeks.
I'm guessing that Android 2.2 will be released within the next 2 - 2 1/2 weeks and that HTC will either release the Sense version of 2.2 at the same time or at the very very latest at the same time as the EVO.
Forgive my ignorance but will htc upgrade the android os on the desire to froyo when it is released or are we stuck with eclair unless we root the device?
Hello Everyone,
First, sorry for my english cause i'm french
I've got a simple question: is it possible to have HTC sense (as on the desire) with Android (XDAndroid 2.2 Froyo FRX01 Final 2.2)
Thank's
The sense builds were abandoned, they were an atrocity to use.
But, they can be found on Reef's web page... I don't think they've had any work done on them recently - you can certainly upgrade the zImage/modules, rootfs etc but the system image won't be up-to-date...

I have installed "ProjectAndroid2.1Sense.061610" on my tp2. I then copied "zImage", "startup.txt" and "Modules-2.6.27.46-01149..." from the 30/08/10 release into my "ProjectAndroid2.1Sense.061610" "andboot" folder, having deleted the original "zImage", "startup.txt" and "Modules-2.6.27.46-01149..." files from "andboot".
In the end I have sense 2.1 running, with wifi, radio (network) and sound of course. The "startup.txt" from the 30/08/10 release has overclock, so it is not too bad for speed.
So, in a way, yes you can.
CREDITS: To someone somewhere on the forum who gave these tips, can't remember who.
Only the 'blazn' builds have an overclock statement in the startup.txt...
ive wonder the the samething know i know thanx

That is the correct one. Thanks, I was writing everything from memory, and no doubt, couldn't remember every detail, however, everything else is as should be.

The rest of it looks pretty accurate
This project was abandoned for this device but not for the other phones ie. topaz, hd,etc..If you want to update your system image, just replace the old one with the new one that you will find all the updates on here

i got a simple answer.. find me a 2.2 froyo with sense that was made for a msm7k device and ill make it happen. So far Hero, Eris and Legend dont seem to have a 2.2 with sense so we cant modify it to run on the tp2.
The desire, incredible and other qsd devices have different libs we cant run those. So we must have one of the devices above (msm7k) for this to happen.
We could always try to use 2.1 libs but thats just barbarism and asking for a really unstable system.

What about an HTC Wildfire? That's an msm7k device with Sense, and it's got an update to 2.2 Froyo:

sorry guys.. looks like the version that is out is some chinese release. Not even the Legend guys can get it working so its going to be harder for us. I'll wait till the official 2.2 is out for the wildpoop
I have got myself sense & froyo builds. Now I want sense with froyo improvements like speed wifi etc..can anyone suggest me how to do that?
?? where did you get a sense + froyo build that would run on the tp2?
Has'nt HTC Wildfire got it's official Froyo 2.2 update? If not can't we use one build from the HTC Wildfire froums?
Hi
I'm currently trying to learn how to port roms for the Desire Z/G2 by using some guides around the internet and dsixda's Android kitchen. Currently I'm trying to port CM7 from Desire S to our device (I know there is a version for the G2 but I thought it would be easier to start with this rom than with a sense rom or something like that...). At the moment almost everything works exept the physical keyboard. It seems to be somehow recognized by the OS cause when I pop it out the launcher is forced into landscape mode but I can't write anything and I can't see the keyboard lights.
Does somebody know which files have to be copied from the original CM7 to the ported one?
Thanks in Advance
Man i always wanted to do this. It be dopee. I always wanted Sense roms for other devices working on our DZ.
Hi all!
I have a cdma desire and im just wondering is there a kernel out there with loop support?
I would love to run ubuntu on my phone, but i need loop first to be able to run it in VNC.
Thank you guys for the support and please post links if available!
What rom are you using right now?

I have oxygen running. I can switch to anything you need me to though. Remember I have a cdma desire thanks!

It will allow you to run any app you can run on desktop Ubuntu, coming with a Chromium browser, Thunderbird email, Rhythmbox music player and Shotwell photo editor as standard. It will be compatible with any device running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) or above, but unfortunately, you won’t just be able to simply download and install it yourself, since Ubuntu is currently liaising with mobile vendors and carriers to install the software at manufacturing stage.
Then again, all the Ubuntu code will be open-source as it always has been, so custom ROM makers congregated over at XDA-developers and the like should be able to add the OS in custom ROM releases.
