Just wondered with the Evo 4G rom being released in the wild, would it be a good one to port? Any positive reasons to do so?

Keep up the great efforts people!
Love this forum.....
Interest ?
The only thing I can think of that is in the Evo ROM that we might want is the WiFi Hotspot, and this may be too tightly connected to CDMA/WiMAX to be of use on GSM phones.

WiFi tethering has already been available (as an additional app) for rooted phones for a long time. If you know how to flash a custom rom, you basically know how to root a phone anyway. So wifi hotspot isn't really a reason for porting the EVO 4G rom over to the Desire.
What else is new on the Evo 4G that is not available on the Desire? (I know it has video chat, but the Desire doesn't have front facing camera to start with...)
HD recording?

I'm well aware of that - I've had Android phones since the G1 was released back in October 2008.
The point is that on the Evo WiFi tethering doesn't require a rooted phone, and given the issues that many are experiencing with USB/BT/FM after rooting, a WiFi hotspot app that is just an APK would be very welcome.
That being said, I seriously doubt that it could work on a Desire since I guess it required changes to the underlying OS to support it, so it would require full porting of the ROM, and if you're doing that you might as well root anyway and install a root WiFi tether app anyway.
In addition, I understand that WiFi tethering doesn't work too well on rooted Desires at present - I wouldn't know though because I can happily use PDANets bluetooth DUN.

We could Maybe Port 720p recording over!
+1 on that, i think with the right dev that could be achieved
Well htc said that they'll bring 720p recording on the desire too, we've to wait.

Is it the most recent version of Wireless Tether, from the market? A month ago or so, wireless tether threw errors at me on Gingerbread Roms. It said that it started, but with errors, and I could never connect. Last week, I tried out all the new Gingerbread Roms, and the latest version of Wireless Tether from the Market worked fine for me. I wasn't expecting it to work, because it didn't last time I was on a Gingerbread rom, but last week it worked fine for me on SavagedZen, Salvage Mod, Evervolv, and King's Gingerbread rom. I must say though, I didn't try it on CM last week, just the others. So, just making sure you have the latest one, because it didn't work on any gingerbread rom a month ago, but did for me recently. Other than that, I'm not sure. When it didn't work for me a month ago, I deduced that it was because the app wasn't yet compatible with Gingerbread, but that was just speculation. I figured it worked now, because they updated it. But maybe i just got lucky, who knows?

Wireless tethering is built into CM7 so you don't need any extra apps or whatever. I would either do one of two things if I was you.
1. Boot into recovery, make a backup of your current rom and flash a brand new CM7
2. Reboot your phone, switch between wifi/3g and then try it again
If that doesn't help then do this......make a backup of your current CM7 rom and flash a sense rom and see if wireless tethering works on that rom because if it doesn't....it might be your phone.
Hope this works for you, if not then I would take BigJIMBO's advice and head over to the CM forums......GOOD LUCK!!
Hey, didn't wanna start a new thread for this and thought this thread seemed semi-appropriate.
Just tried a CM rom for.the first time (on win xp). Tried to use usb tether and no-go. Apparently I need the tetherxp file. Thing is, I already have it, but pc wont let me properly point to it, or im doing it wrong. I googled a bit, but what I found kinda sounded like the tetherxp.ini file is for froyo, and I jump back and forth between froyo (sense) and cm7.
Can anyone help me figure out what I need to do for CM7 r2 usb tethering to work on XP ?
Thanks a ton. .

I searched the forum and found that some are having difficulty with the Epic 4G tether. After reading, I still need some help please.
I rooted the Epic using the one click method on one of the threads on the forum. About phone says:
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: S : D700.0.5S.EC05
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.EC05
Hardware version: D700.0.5
I installed on the Epic Barnace Tether and WifiTether (the one with the lime green symbol), which were the two most popular in the market.
Unfortunately, when I run the programs, my Xoom doesn't "see" my phone. Our two household laptops do whether I use Barnacle or WifiTether, but my Xoom doesn't list the phone under available wifi networks.
It's been a few months since the last thread that resembled this issue. Is there some consensus as what the easiest/best thing to do is to get my Xoom to see the Epic tethering? Perhaps this should be on the Xoom forum? Not sure.
Thanks for your help.
OK.
From my experience there two things at play here.
Number one, if i am not mistaken some devices have problems connecting to adhoc.
But this is not your problem at all.
Your kernel does not have the necesary stuff to make it work.
You need to install another rom, Simply AOSP, Experience, I can confirm work with tethering. I prefer simply AOSP because its as close to the nexus s as possible. if you still like the old samsung look you can actually switch to it with simply settings and it will be like any other samsung rom.
I had the same problem with both my galaxy s 4g and my epic 4g.
Keep in mind even after you get it working it will only be adhoc support.

OK, thanks....some more help if you would.
So what you're saying is that if I install another ROM, it will work. The name of the ROM I should install is Simply AOSP or Experience. After I install these ROMs, I will be able to tether. Is there a link that will guide me through these steps?
I have a vague idea of what ROMs are, but I don't know what simply settings are. Is there a link where I could read about that?
In your last sentence when you say keep in mind after you get it working it will only be adhoc support........what does that mean?
When I install a new ROM, will the phone lose any other functionality? Is it reversible?
Sorry for all the questions. I was just getting comfortable with rooting and ROMs are a whole new area to me.

OK, I'll check out the videos. I know nothing about ROMs other than the little I have read on this thread in the past 45 minutes or so.
The problem I am having though is that ONLY my Xoom tablet cannot see the phone wifi hotspot. My laptops see it fine and connect to it. Do you think I should be trying to fix this from the Xoom end of the problem vs. the Epic end of the problem? Confused.
I'm leaning toward the Xoom as the problem check out a Xoom forum

What is the best way to get "infrastructure" mode? Do I do this on the phone or on the Xoom?
I just ordered an Epic 4G Touch from Credo Mobile which should arrive next week. They use the Sprint network and I believe the phone comes from Credo with all of the Sprint apps and bloat. I will want to root soon after I activate it and would like to know the best method to root it and recommended ROM. While i am not a total noob to rooting I would probably need an easy fairly foolproof method (I rooted a Verizon Samsung Fascinate and have installed a lot of different ROMs on it).
One thing people really hate here is when new threads are posted with questions that could easily be answered by doing a simple search. I am not one of those people, just giving you the heads up.
Check the stickies in the dev section, the autoroot is awesome and completely fool proof. I've used it 6 times now.

MetalHead,
thanks for posting the link to the stickies. However, there are many, many pages of stickies and I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say "autoroot". Can you please be more specific as to what root method you used? Are you referring to the (Zedomax) (ACS) thread? I have not read all 40 pages, but it seems that people are having some issues with this method.
Please help shed some light on which method you used.
thanks,
Neil
I got my phone last night and used the method in this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728
Seems to work great. Now I have to figure out which ROM I want to use or leave it the way it is.
mobile hotspot
I'm assuming that if you root you can get mobile hotspot to work even though Credo says they don't 'support it'. Correct?

The stickies are just the first group of threads in a section, they are permanently at the top of the list and are designated by a pin to show that they are "pinned" to the top of the page. The auto root is the first thread there. It is perfectly safe, and very easy. All it is is a simple program you run on your windows machine that roots your phone for you. As I stated before I have used it numerous times without any problems at all. Here is the direct link to that thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728

The unlocked mobile hotspot as of now requires a custom deodexed ROM to work but you can use Wireless Tether for Root Users for wifi tethering. The downside to that is you can only create an ad hoc network but the upside is it works with 4G whereas the mobile hotspot does not. Here's the link- http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

Hey Itzbob,
I'm about to do the exact same thing - ordered my Galaxy S II epic 4g touch from credo and will get in the next few days, adn thought i'd do some research to see if anyone's done this before - I got the links for the rooting (thanks _MetalHead_), and that seems easy enough. now that it's beedn about a week since you put the new ROM, do you like it? fast? battery life, etc? also, and this is a total Noob question - did you have to do anything with APN settings and the like to get it to work? I come from the iPhone jeailbreaking/unlocking world, and this will be my first root/ and flashing ROM. since I'm gettinga new phone, i'd love to just do this right away, instead of using it, and then wiping off stuff when i flash it.
any advice appreciated!
Sorry for the delayed reply I've been on vacation. As for questions... Battery life is just ok but I am a heavy user. Rooting only without the custom ROM gave me excellent battery life. So far I have also had 2 complete crashes with Calks ROM so make sure you have titanium backup. I wish I knew what caused the crashes, seems like a few apps don't play nice but I haven't been able to pinpoint which ones.
It is fast! Gps, 4G, everything seems to work great.

First of all, thank you so much for your posts, they have been extremely helpful to me so far!
My main question for you is: are there no extra procedures or APN settings or anything at all for a Credo Mobile Galaxy S 2 vs a Sprint S 2?
And in regards to your Credo S 2 --If not, can I just run sfhub's One-Click ODIN with the stock EL13 Modem, Kernel, and ROM for the E4GT (rooted), then do option c3 with Auto Root to get CWM, to allow changing to Calkulin's E4GT v2.5.1a ROM and it's kernel, while keeping the stock EL13 Modem? Can you run the 2.6 ROM as well as the 2.5.1a ROM? Any reason not to run the newer one?
Also can you return you phone to returnable stock from it's current state?
Thanks for any help you can provide! What you guys are doing in this thread is like the only source for Credo S 2 info that I am aware of.
So I saw through Reddit that they were releasing this for like 70 devices. Anyone try it? How similar is it to the various KANG builds we have for our device?
I'm downloading now, so ill post my thoughts.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA
so far it seems to be very similar to the Kangs. It does feel a teeny bit more responsive than those others.
The low volume on call bug is still present, but flashing aeroeven's .8 kernel fixes this just as it does in the KANG builds.
I didn't experience the multi touch issue that seems to be plaguing some users, but for what it's worth i didn't experience it on the KANG builds either.
The keyboard didn't stick for me while typing at all. i spent about 5 minutes typing random words into an email and it didn't stick once.
Edit: when logging into I heart radio the keyboard was sticky as hell.
one thing i've noticed is that once the market finally switches to google play, the label says Market, but it has the play icon.
excuse a newb
So I downloaded and installed 7.2 but when I try to add a new account to sync, it says it cant connect to the server. Ideas?
Also, what is this flashing kernel to get rid of low in-call volume?
Thanks!

I'm using the .8 bfs at this time with good results, but you can use the cfs as well. Either will work, just different schedulers.
and....im a moron and just never flashed google apps. rom works perfectly.
I personally like kangs release better than this. I use swiftly x for my keyboard, and many times it lags when I type. Opera Web browser doesn't work for me, which is the browser I prefer. Long wait time switching between wifi and 3G. These are the issues I am having. Yes I wiped everything coming from kangs build before flashing this. I tried "fix permissions " and even uninstalled and reinstalled the apps that were misbehaving, but nothing has fixed these problems.

I tried the official build but it wasn't surprising to me that the most of the same issues that plague all cm7 builds for this phone are still present and the custom kernels don't really help to fix the problems. Im just going to stick with sense some more until cm works some of them out.

Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
A fix for the use of wireless tether v2.0.7. The overall feel of cm just isn't there. Its not quite as smooth as I remember and I really hate that when I listen to music and try to do other things it causes the music to lag for a second. The call volume was still very low which I figured would be something they would address but they didnt. Wireless tether app not working is pretty much a deal breaker for me though. I have to use my phone for my home internet and the hotspot just isn't a very reliable connection most of the time and its very annoying to get disconnected and have to reconnect constantly.

I found RC1 to be more stable than the last stable 7.1.0.1 release. Everything works for me including wireless tether, and I have not had any stability issues. The compass issue is also gone, which is a welcome change for me. (Trying to navigate Boston on St. Patty's after a few green beers via a compass that always points the wrong direction was not particularly easy.)
The only thing I have noticed is that the FM Radio will force close periodically if a notification noise chimes while I am listening, but it did that on 7.1.0.1, too. However, on 7.1.0.1, it would require a reboot rather than simply reopening the app. All in all, I'm pretty stoked. I am looking forward to stable and CM9 (hopefully) down the road.

However, on 7.1.0.1, it would require a reboot rather than simply reopening the app. All in all, I'm pretty stoked. I am looking forward to stable and CM9 (hopefully) down the road.

You better belive we will have a stable version. HTC has announced that we will get ics. And cm is still being developed for our phone despite the fact that they will have to redo a lot when the right drivers are released. Looking forward to it. Hopefully the camera won't suck.

I'm not doubting we will have a working version I just don't see the really awesome versions until we get an official release or a leak. I'm going to hold out on an ics until something official comes out.

So the wireless tether app v2.0.7 works for you. Since I've had this phone every kang I've tried hasn't worked and the official still doesn't work so how did you fix it?

I am using the factory tethering option at Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot. I have had good luck with that. Is there a reason you are going with this particular app rather than the "stock" option?

I have read HTC's announcement. I say "hope," because I am going from Cyanogen's "Will [insert device] get CyanogenMod 9?" flow chart (see Ricard Cerqueira's Google+ page). Even with the release of ICS, there is still only a 75% chance. The only devices that are certain at this point are those that already have CM9 nightlies. Given HTC's slowness releasing kernels, etc. and my general cynical disposition, I'll believe it when I see nightlies released for the Incredible 2.
