Hello to all.
My question is very simple but I think is impossible, however I ask
Is possible to have dual boot for two Roms?
For example I have opendesire and nextsense and when I want play game I boot opendesire and for all day I have nextsense.
It's possible?

perhaps make a nandroid backup for both roms and flash whichever one you wanna use? i know it's pretty troublesome but just throwing it out on the table. lol.
Thanks for answer!
I thought this but is very annoying and not fast solution
Is the only choise?

as far as my limited knowledge knows, this is the only method. but if anyone else has got a better solution, i'm all ears.
It can be done, Kendon of TeamVillain made one for the Hero via a modified (he did it) recovery, I will find you the thread and post it here.
You will need to port it to work on Desire though, might not be an easy task.

I'm not a Android programmer.
I'm an webdeveloper but I suppose that it's not enough
Any idea to make this porting?

Speak to kendon direct on that forum if you want, just sign up and pm him he is usually more than happy to help.
he knows what he did to make it work better than anyone so he would be best placed to tell you what you need to do to get it on the desire.
Is Kendon a name of an user?

I see that the Thunderbird ROM uis booting on the EVO.
I'm guessing it could mean we could see that ROM ported to the Inc ?
Are any Dev's considering this ?
I could not find it in the Evo thread, could you point it out?
I thought the Thunderbolt was supposed to be similar to the Desire Z style of Sense, just with a few Verizon specific apps.
Am I wrong?

It's very similar, but its a cdma version so it should be more stable plus it probably has some new optimization to make it faster

Myn just released a Z port BETA for the evo to his beta testers. I am currently downloading it right now, as I type. Head on over to his thread. To recieve the link for the download, you need to be a beta tester though. You become a beta tester by either 1) Donating to Myn. 2) Sending Myn a PM and politely asking him to become a beta tester. Just bear in mind that this is a beta, not a final release.
Look at xxxvirusxxx rom in android development. Uses desire z build. Called revolution z

Cos there's no overclock. Once HTC release the (hounds) kernel source the ROMs will be as fast as the Froyo Sense ROMs. Not as fast as CM6/7 though cos it has to run Sense in the background.
'Tis the route we take.
Wrong forum, moved to Q&A
I live in austin and don't know a single "cowboy". You make it sound like texas is full of idiots dude..unless you are into modding, know someone, or read tech posts like engadget, gizmodo, etc etc you aren't going to know what a rom is no matter where your geographical location is. Or they will think its a game rom like nes and psx because they used the word rom many years before android.

TBH this forum seems a bit lonely... and my EpicParts question was easily abandoned
Whatever, greetings and happy new year to every one out there!
Today I happen to dig out a Sense 4 ROM for our E4G which boots, doesn't reboot THAT often and is resized well (what, you want links? I think that's a private workspace and maybe I shouldn't tell). But what bugs me most is that SystemUI (statusbar) always FCs for no reason and I can't do anything with that.
So here I got a HTC Incredible S ("vivo", which is the port base for our Sense 2.1 ROM) with a fully-functional Sense 4.1 build. Everything's working and things are better sized for WVGA. And it's smooth. Considering it's a single core device, I think there is already no obstacle blocking the port (I know that Sense4All project paused because One X is a quad core device and gets all sorts of reboots. Correct me if I'm wrong).
Thus, I wanna ask, as a non-coding noob:
1) Is porting process the same as common tutorials (copying frameworks, libs, etc)?
2) If not, is this even possible (to have Sense 4.1 ported from vivo)?
3) If not, again, what can I do to improve my current build on hand (i.e. simply stopping the SystemUI FC and maybe adding more HWA)? I don't intend to use the ROM as a daily driver... Just a tool for showing off
So... Thanks again for reading the thread and hope you can offer some guidance

If there was a stable version of Sense 2.1 or 4.0, it would be my daily driver. I really hope this project isn't abandoned.

2.1 is already very usable apart from BT (nah I don't use that), but many devs have already left or are silent. Must be with their new toys. That's why I'm trying to help. If I had time in winter vacation I'll try a bit, but hope not too high
And so I need some guidance and answers... Please. Even one answer will do.

I do want to, but I'm not a code dev and know almost nothing except that "brute-force" porting method, and I don't know whether that will work.
I mean, here I got a fully working Sense 4 build on a SINGLE-CORE device, so is this a proof that porting to us is also possible?

You ported sense 4 to an htc phpne which is much easier than porting it to something not even close to compatible with the hardware so it will be more difficult

But... I said
1) We HAD a now paused project that has ported Sense 4 and made it boot
2) I have a better Sense 4 base ROM (for our device, not HTC's) at hand with fewer random FCs
3) xboxfanj said that the port reboots because One X is quad core, and the ROM will keep searching for the extra cores. But IncS is single core and runs that beautifully (its port is based on One V and Desire X)
And that's why I'm seeking answers.

Part of the problem is that we couldn't port qualcomm roms which would be stable if they booted, but we never got it booting. Tegra is all intercoded into libs and looks for kernel files we don't have which causes it to reboot and be unstable.

To be honest, we never quite figured it out. We never got a proper logcat, since it only gave us unhelpful information, which means it doesn't even start to fully boot.

And this means all my expectes efforts should be in vain, huh?
But check this, I got a Sense 4 ROM from marcusant's site and it's a port from Desire Z, based on One V seemingly. So far apart from all the hardware issues (wifi, cam, sensor), only thing that prevented me from sticking to it is that SystemUI often FCs. And I think that is another base to start on, since IT'S QUALCOMM.

Is that so? There are two items in About Phone indicating phone model. One of them says "HTC One V", which I think is the port source, while the other says "HTC Desire Z", which is the device ported to I assume. I know that these can be modded, but why the hell does anyone take the trouble to mod it to Desire Z when we are Epic 4G? Thus I think it's a Qualcomm port.
Have you looked into it yet? Or maybe it's really your work and you know about it?
