im the 1st one to make a request sir lol!
can i have a 1.6 version of donut similar to rls04 i think its 1.6
i dont need a lot of application i just need the important apillication..
like astro rougetools i dont need the gps or gtalk just the important application
That would be the concept behind barebones. To be as light and fast as possible. That is why on my CM build I released requests with android updates as to not add bloat to my main releases.
barebones roms are nice but with donut alot of your google apps arent availible for it from the market
the new gmail is 2.2 only along with voice search being 2.1 and up i dont know about any of the others
Oh I know that but it was requested so that's what i'll make. I do want to experiment on the side with combining donut and eclair to get most of the google apps working. I would try froyo but with JIT and the other changes I think it might be to significantly different.

those are old builds. I was trying to shed light on the new ones for those who dont frequent the vogue forums also
as the title says i hate when my phone is acting slow to have to goto the test menu to see if I am on 1x or EVDO.....
is it somehow possible to make it so that it does not just show 3g all the time in a custom rom???
Thanks for any answers in advance

(Rom)Ava-FroyoV1-Sense+2.2 Froyo
I am currently running this Rom and it does exactly that. (Tells you Evdo, 1x etc)
BEWARE! This is Android 2.2 (Froyo) which has a lot of bugs and things not working. (No Rear Camera, No MMS, 4G, Android Market is screwed up, etc.)
"Word on the street" is that soon, (next couple of days or maybe even tonight) there are going to be new Froyo ROMS that will fix many of these issues.
so by tonight it being released you mean this AVA rom should be updated or you mean in general some new code is being released on froyo????
I use my camera daily lol and it takes to long to NAND between rom's to snap a photo of the kiddo on the fly!!!

probably referring to CyanogenMod 6 it should top any of the froyo roms here IMO
There are a few Froyo ROMS out right now. Differences between them are that some concentrate on speed, user experience, etc. etc. some run Sense and some don't.
At the race right now:
Two different Developers, each has their own Froyo ROM:
Avalaunchmods - Ava (Sense)
Cyanogen - CM6 (AOSP... (no Sence) I believe?)
Both of them will be releasing their own ROM that allegedly fixes many of the Froyo issues we are currently experiencing. Cyanogen posted on Twitter that his CM6 might be going live tonight on the nightly builds for Evo..
Ava has also stated that he too will be releasing an update soon...

im pleasing too.. thx
Camera works fine for me perhaps your nbh is wrong.
Is it possible to unlock the market to have full paid and free apps with an ion build?
Are there any skins for ion build?
Thanks. Great build so far.

Nevermind. Unlocked the market with Market Enabler.
I like it, camera works but still dark. Widget Power control doesn't work for wifi, gps and sync.
Im still testing it, but i like the speed and the stability. thanks a lot mate good work
what 'ion build' mean? (i'm noob on android porting stuff, so sorry if the question is too stupid)
The ION was/is a Google dev phone, so Ion Donut is a donut build based on the Ion.
It's not too stupid a question, I bet there are loads of people who wondered that, just none were brave enough to ask
All versions of android after 1.1 ( the first official release), have cake related names.
1.5 Cupcake
1.6 Donut
2.0/2.1 Eclair
2.2 Froyo ( FROzen YOghurt)
3.0 Gingerbread ( presently expected september-december 2010).
My Feedback
I installed the build and I first noticed the simple Android boot logo. It looks good. I had a few problems with the lockscreen button (power button). It didn't work at first, but after two tries it did. Wifi works. I haven't tried bluetooth though. Of course the camera didn't work.
I'm a little confused.. It says it's Firmware Version is 1.6 but it has the FroYo Status Bar? I like that, but It would be nice to have 2.1 or 2.2. It seems to be very close to Myn's Warm Donut RLS 5.
Keep up the good work
Thanks for the feedback guys I will have a look at it tonight and try fix the camera and enable full market

This looks great !, i will try asap
Donut is the better and faster Android build for the kaiser, hopefully this project will last a long time, thanks a lot!

This build is the fastest and most stable I have tried. Thanks!

i'm very sad about your phone bricked

1000 thx
why not using very latest dzo nbh ?
the camera would not work for me if i used the latest one i don't know why either i tested it and the camera wouldnt work in myns warm donut either
There are significant differences in the newer Froyo nbh's that 'break' camera for donut, at the moment older nbh's work fine, just stay clear of the froyo ones
For Polaris 100:
i'm actually testing with lastest dzo's polaris nbh
camera work fine, wifi and bluetooth don't
with the nbh you purpose on the first page, i can't have data connection and that's very annoying.
Hi,
Most Hero ROMs try to port FriendStream, News and Live Wallpapers from the Legend/Desire to our Heros but wouldn't be better to just use a Legend port?
I've read about a few problems in the past, when we were still waiting for the official 2.1 update for the Hero and the Legend/Desire were just being released, about doing stuff like this that it would never be 100% like the current official 2.1 update for the Hero (well, it's not 100% either, but you know what I mean).
But now we have official RUU updates from the Legend (the most similar to the Hero of the new phones) we also have the source for the Hero 2.1 kernel, wouldn't that be enough to create a good and fully working port for the Hero? Wouldn't be better instead of using the official Hero 2.1?
I'm not as experienced as most devs here, that's why I'm wondering if this would be better and if there's some problem porting the Legend ROM that I'm overlooking...
No one has an opinion on this?

There was this ROM called Legendroid, I don't remember who was the developer But the ROM was pretty fast and stable.

Sure, but that doesn't really "answer my question"
I mean, we know have the source code for the kernel, which we didn't back then when such ROMs were released...
I'm wondering if that makes a difference...
Changing the kernel is not enough.
You could be more explicit...
I'm not a dev, but as a user I can say, that those were slow and battery sucker.
But if you do one what is speedy, uses battery at least as good as the official based ones, and it'll have more features....
Hero community will love you C:

I am pretty sure this was caused by the lack of the .29 kernel it should be better now.
Well I can't really see why a Legend ROM would be better than a Hero ROM, but I would like the News Reader Widget, I find it dumb how HTC wouldn't give the 2.1 Hero this widget but whatever.
OH btw don't take this as discouragement by all means go for it since most people ditched their Legend ROMs so if you can do it I don't see why not variety is good .
i thought the only problems transferring features from the legend ROM was the friendstream widget as everything else was ported over to normal Hero ROMs one way or another before the official 2.1 RUU came out.
it would obviously be easier to port the extra stuff from the legend ROM to the Hero ROMs
I don't think it would cause the Legend ROM has more things than the News and FriendStream widgets... For instance, the browser has quick actions for selected text which is cool, the mail widget has 3 variants (Hero's only have 1). And I'm sure there lots of other tiny little details...
It's a pain to port all these things one by one, it's just easier (I think) to port the whole thing with a Hero kernel (but I'm not the one to do it).
And I'm sure there are other "hidden" stuff that our Heros lack, it's just their way to differentiate their phones. It sucks for customers, but it's good for them.

If we take a legend port suppose would you be able to modify the Hero kernal to work on the port with OC.
As I said, it is not only the kernel that needs to be changed. But... we already have a Legend port... Fallah
I don't want to be rude but cloud you please stop saying that changing the kernel is not enough without explaining why and/or what else is needed?
You're not being very helpful like that...
And that Legend port is not based on WWE, so it would be a no go for me.

should have free time in the coming months and i'm going to try make a legend port. i'm not a "dev" i know a little but i cant do what a lot of these guys do by any means. if its stable i might share
still use my G1 for random development as well as a magic 32b and now i got the desire i can try be brave and try out things on the hero.

could you please add links to each post where we can download those two flashable files?
Also, has anyone tried fallah or the swedish rom yet? I downloaded them both just now but am running the just released updated cronos froyo rom right now and don't want to reflash until I've tested this baby thoroughly.
what I miss most about the old legend ports was the FAR superior text selector system with zooming etc. Is that part of these roms or was that a bit of a hack in the older roms? it sure was sweet....
It really should be part of android, but considering it's similar to the apple copy/paste concept, I'm wondering if there might be some patent infringement going on there which might explain why it's not used by HTC in other roms than the legend stuff. But that is just a rumor I pieced together myself so it's probably wrong.
anyway, it's the best text selector system on android. froyo's selector comes close but isn't still as good imho.

It looks hacked with a different theme, I'm not very fond of that... Thanks for sharing though.
I might try to do a port myself when I get the chance, similar to the Nebulae (my own ROM) features and see how that goes...

but all that when i come back from my vacation...
R2's rom is great but I think I speak for many users that are frustrated with the lack of updates with OMGB. Maybe it would be possible for someone to get R2's rom and update it with some CM7 fixes and other things. Is this to daunting of a task or why hasn't someone else taken up this Rom???
What's wrong w/ CM7 itself? I don't think there's anything major left not working on the recent (>= 28) builds.
He's done with omgb he's gonna make omfgb next. It works well enough for most people. There isn't really much that can be improved.

i am beyond confused. have you even tried CM7 before posting your request???? Everything there works now and its stock (no theming) with a few enhancements (because thankfully slayher, cyanogen and team are very smart). This is probably beyond insulting to all the devs working extremely hard on developing GB for our incs. If you believe it is easy for devs to whip out roms, please either contribute to the process or contribute donations.
I hate to be traffic police (because most people who do so are pompous numnuts IMHO) but this thread does not belong in dev section by any stretch of the imagination. Its just a request, nothing more.
compare cm7 vs. OMGB
There are so many fixes on there that aren't applied to OMGB.
I don't like cm7 because it feels like a could use a vanilla 2.2 rom add a custom launcher and it would be pretty similar. Just not a fan of customizations.

brad, please test out the functionality and speed of CM7. GB does add significant things. I am a tinkerer so I know why I cant go back to 2.2 anymore. There are enough functionality enhancements. And I dont understand, what customizations??? I have flashed 11 CM7 builds - trust me until you are a crackflasher, you will never delve deep enough to really use the power of GB.
I understand where the OP is coming from. My guess is you would have to wait for OMGB to develop and catch up with CM7 in terms of bug fixing.
I too wanted a "stock" GB rom.. but CM7 brought it close for me after I installed stock gingerbread launcher that someone ripped and posted on the market.
What kind of "bugs" are you referring to?
