It just stays on the white HTC screen after install
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Same thing happened to me with Skyraider 3.3 because I tried to flash a different kernel at the same time. So flash a stock kernel or one of koush's custom ones. Then reflash CM6.
Also you should've wiped data & cache before you flashed any new ROM.

I always wipe etc when flaming a Rom... do you have the slcd?

i tried that...and same result...im thinking its a framework issue..but i dont know exactly..really frustrating tho!..someone help lol

Some people were running into this issue with ShadowROM and I think the conclusion they came to was that they had different drivers.

is there any way to fix that?

i know i cant be the only person with an SLCD screen running into this issue

If it is indeed a driver issue, you could always build the rom yourself and pull the drivers directly from your phone. That is of course assuming that HTC didn't rename the drivers

CM6 is not built for use with the SLCD version of the Incredible; refer to the full update guide for the Inc in their wiki.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808972
The maker of shadowrom has the SLCD INc now, i'm sure if he gets a fix. He'll share the info with CM sourse

Having the same problem. I'm thinking of attempting to flash the N1 CM6 then flash the IncDoes N1 port update over it. Should fix the problem being that the N1 runs and slcd display and has no issues. I'll post back and let you know the outcome. Before i go through all that though, does anybody know if they added support for the slcd in any of the nightlys?

Its actually a kernel issue...flash the rom then flash an aosp kernel and it will work...where is that n1 port?

I ask in the ShadowROM IRC channel last night and they told me the same thing: SLCD driver issue. Since one of their devs now has an SLC Dinc they are working on fixing the problem...hopefully soon.

Yeah CM6 doesn't play too nice with the SLCD.
I have the SLCD and I am running Virtuous 3.1 with custom kernel and the IncRevo theme.
Couldn't be happier!

Koush test #2 kernel and it will work just fine.

Is the procedure: flash rom, gapps, kernel then reboot? Can you share link to the kernel? It is not in the Incredible section at Cyanogen webpage.

I tried a KK kernel supplied by the guys at ShadowROM but that didn't work, so curious to try with the Koush kernel mentioned above.

[Q] Aosp build setting vendor overlay

Could someone point me to the repository containg the vendor overlay for the desire on a gb 2.3.7 build
e.g. here is the code i would use if building for the incredible
code:
cd ~/mydroid/system/device
cd htc
mkdir inc
cd inc
git clone http://github.com/koush/android_device_htc_inc.git inc
What i want to know is what url should i put in place of the red text for the desire?
Thanks I'm new to this

You could just use an extract from a working Rom or phone using the extract or unzip sh in the cm repository
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

Are you suggesting i build it for a generic device and add drivers afterwards?

Pull the ones from cm7? Seems like a decent plan.

No you build everything specific for the bravo. You use the extracted proprietory files to complete the source

Ye but apart from the proprietary files he'll also need the vendor folder containing all device specific non proprietary files and make-files for desire as well as a script to pull the proprietary files, and this seems to be the one he's looking for.
Non of the above is included for the desire in AOSP, so he'll need to get it somewhere else like from the cm7 project.

And device. Possibly hardware too
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

Thank you for all the replies i'm still rather confused but i'm going to try using the vendor overlay for cyanogen with the make files and script and just see what happens
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Yep it should work ok, even though the make-files could need some adjusting. As a second option, Oxygen is also open source with desire support, so you could borrow those as well, but they should be pretty similar to the cm ones.

Rootsu when could you give me a short explanation of how you went about building etc. I have set up the builds environment and can build a rom for the emulator or nexus s. All i'm trying to do is build a basic stock GB ROM for the desire as part of teaching myself how to develop Android roms I understand dgb was a similar room for you which you have since worked on and published to these forums
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I used the redux 1.2 github repository to start with. I started there as for me it was the best Rom.
All I had to do to compile was get the proprietory files using the extract.sh
What I then did was learn my way around the source and work out how to change what needed changing. Swapping out the majority of the source with the Google repository.
There's still stuff I need to learn though, like changing the kernel but time is an issue for me.
I would recommend using redux or oxygen source as a starting point if I were you as cm is very different to pure aosp. I didn't know oxygen sources were available....

[Q] Barebones Rom

I'm trying to create a barebones Rom but I have never had to mess with the internals much, I've already removed all the apps for the alpha test but I was hoping someone might be able to write a tut on this? Or point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.

What is a barebones ROM? I like the name.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA

It will be my Rom with a custom kernel but with nothing on it apart from the needed parts from which users will be able to customize to their liking rather than having loads of crapware, the idea came from tinycore Linux.

[Q] Sense Port to Xperia S

Hello there! I was wondering if it is possible to port sense ui from htc to xperia s.
I've read many threads about porting and also porting sense. Found this guide on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707177
But i had some issues. I tried CM9.1 as Base and one v rom as port rom (extracted ruu and copyed over some folders)
-> didn't boot... i had no problems while flashing... but then there just came a stock android bootscreen logo but nothing happend.
I wasn't sure about which device would fit the best for porting and how to get started the best.
Would be nice to get some help!
Thanks!

You want only the UI or the whole Sense?

Full sense!
I know its hard to do it but i really like sense!
And i think its worth it

Indeed it is really hard. You'd have to get a dev that would want to have such a big job...

Which devs do we have for xperia s?
And who would do this?^^
Do you have xperience with porting Roms?

There aren't many, mostly none wants to do it and I don't have experience. I can't badly change a png myself without my phone almost exploding.

Thats Bad/ sad.
I know sense is very complex
I would try to do it myself for the beginning but i dont have much experience.. all i need would be some information on how to get started and which device would make 'sense' to port sense from.
But i also know i can't do it alone. Sadly I dont have the knowledge.

I think the Sensation HD would be a good choice. I don't know if it has the latest Sense, but it is the closest HTC device to ours (basically, it is the same thing with different design and UI)

Alright..
For porting, do i have to use a stock Rom or can i also try to port a custom Rom of the HTC sensation or would that make it harder?
And if i use a stock Rom, do i have to extract the Rom from a ruu or are there other ways to get stock Rom?

Sent from my Xperia S using xda app-developers app

you could just google for "htc sensation hd stock rom", there are so many sources serving the stock roms.

Of this is really that simple everyone would do it,but unfortunatly it's not :/

I know that there are many sources but i've never seen a stock rom as zip file .
You always have to download ruu and then extract firmware and kernel files..
But at least it is not the Problem to get a stock Rom

I think i can help you here
If you were stuck at bootscreen, then replace the android_servers.so in system/lib of the ported rom with the android_servers.so file of original rom(i.e. rom made for xperia s)
Let me know if its working or not and if possible can you send me a link of your ported rom..

Firstly, This should go in the questions sub forum, that's what its there for. Secondly, FXP has a working build for the Xperia Play. So you could use there ROM as a base. Compile everything normally and CM10 should and when you build your ROM should work with CM10 ROMs. If not, you either heavily modified the ROM and you most likely will need a custom ROM(Unlikley) or you made a mistake. Reply if you need links to the got source. Happy building! :beer:

Oh OK! Didn't see the .1. Yes get it from source and try to port? You might have to make some kernel adjustments. I recommend trying to port a similar device or ROM using 4.2. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Glad to see someone actually noticed 4.2

Seems that with the actual sources they put on github you can't achieve that,we need either fxp to push their source or to debug it ourselves, I just made a build this morning but it doesn't go past the kernel logo, and can't seem to be able to logcat, the strange thing is that adb doesn't recognize the phone but I was able to use flashtool to reboot it in flashmode via adb, any suggestions?
