Well no bug or something, but I've added the rom on my mirror . here
Good luck with this. It's great to see that there are still some people who believe in a 2.2 sense rom for the hero
when the rom is tested a bit i will add it to my rom database
dude, you built a rom! congrats on being so bleeding edge bonesy!
I'm impressed with your guts
um, don't take this the wrong way, but I'm not about to try it just yet... ;-) It's just because I need my phone and it's camera etc for daily use. I have faith in you - you've been messing with this stuff longer than I have probably dude and your flashing instructions are VERY clear which is comforting.
I'm really impressed that you persevered like this though man!
cheers
Don
Like I said gonna give it a try when at work. Great work man. And ill report back in here all my findings.
Like don said. Great to see this still happening to the hero.

hi there!
I'm a bit puzzled how to revert to pre-MTD changes state.
I am willing to test this rom, but I would like to have an option to nandroid back without much of a problem. I read through the topic bonesy linked, but haven't found a simple answer/solution.
I hope I could help some more, at least confirm bugs or something.
Cheers!

EDIT:
Is it as simple, as flashing "remove" zip?
Nearly, you will need to re-flash recovery too, Through fastboot..
Im struggling at the moment as i have 2 different builds on 2 different computers.As soon as i can get to my work computer i can carry on with it all
Call me stupid but is CustomMTD really necessary ? This rom can't work as all roms do? I've flashed it without MTD method and I am stuck on first splash-screen (mine says HERO on black background).
BTW ty for working on a Froyo Sense port for Hero GSM
omg Ninpo is involved, <3 him (nogay)
I will try when it's a little bit better ^^ and can be used for 1 day at school
good work man!

@bonesy. how are you hoping the development of this ROM will be community driven? Would you like us to simply try it and report bugs (no different to most other ROMS I think) or would you like us to get down and dirty with code wherever possible?
Im just a regular user but i'd like to help with the development of this rom. if i was pointed in the right direction I would even be willing to learn about how to develop this rom!
anyway good effort for starting on this (I expect, long) journey

Im hoping all devs will see that there are still people wanting Sense on their hero's,FroYo sense stopped as soon as GB was booting up on the hero and now it seems to be forgotten.Ideally id like to learn how to do ll the porting but theres not much in the way of advice out there..

In a word..Yes (its over 200mb in size just on /system partition) hopeing eventually it wont need it

Well took a quick look at this. Will try to devout some more time over the next few days and see if it'll get me anywhere.
What I got for now is:
a) There is quite a lot of "junk" on the system partition here, after a short cleanup it fits very nicely without the MTD patch .
b) libwebcore.so fixes the browser crashes and most likely the markets too.
If I have time tomorrow I'll try to give the microphone a shot, cause this is the most critical problem at this point - whats the point of having a telephone you even talk to...
Hopefully I'll also release something for testing tomorrow...
Thanks Erasmux, i would have gtalked you today but been at work and the boss was in...so no devvin on the work pc lol.Got market and browser fixed as you say and also rotate and i think light sensor.I removed nabservice.apk as it only FC'd.Would be great if we can arrange a time over the W/end to talk
Opened a new thread for "my" version of this port:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026699
Please note, that the amount of effort I will be able on such a (closed source) ROM is limited. I mainly what to see how far I can get this, especially in terms of hardware support, with my past experience.
So its up to you if you want to continue to keep your version going in parallel. If you do (or anyone else), please feel free to reuse anything from "my" ROM....

I have a 8525(Herm100) I"m running the TNT 2.0 Rom And for Some Reason every time I"m on the Phone with someone talking, I can not Use Any of the Letter Keys that Share #'s. Even if I use The white Dot Function key its a No GO . Is there a Fix or a settiing I've over Looked on my Phone ?
this has been covered already.. its a problem in newer roms.. only rom with this issue fixed so far to my knowledge is vp3's 3.61

Def ! I"m Trying To get some Answers now.... Hoping MAybe it's Just the New Build he Used..... If that' sthe Case I"ll take the build he's using and just make my Own Rom. SOmeone said Is had Some To Do with the XIP file And they Can't Duplicate it. WM thing ? Which is Confusing, No Matter What build We use or Rom it's still WM So Im trying to get some Answers.... I Just can't believe MOre People haven''t Complained about this. I Mean IT's a Multi-Tasking Phone ?! ? I mean to Not be Able To Txt, Type, Email , And TAlk At the Same time Means I should have Just gotten a regular phone And called it the day you know ?
Well this is from his post on the topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1534286&postcount=71
Who knows where we go from here...
Yeah I just Read it And replied.... so If it's fixed in This Build I guess I should use his Build to Build my own Rom Just th eWay I want it. That's The Only Option I could come up with so Far. Vp3g's rom Looks And is Stable but the TnT Rom Has EVERYTHING that I use as far as apps Are concerned so I"m back against a wall here....
So am I to understand that this is Only a 8525 Problem ?
I'd just like to start off by saying its taken me a long and grueling week to figure out everything I needed to know just to get this rom booting on my hero. Hero is my first android phone and my first glimpse into phone modding overall, (XDA virgin xD) and it took me many hours of constantly searching and taking notes to understand how *most* things work within the operating system. With that I present this rom I ported from over at the magic forum which is based on nk02Mod 4.0.4. Original can be found here.
Alot of things dont work and thats why I'm posting this, I would like to see a group effort at achieving a fully functional vanilla android build on Hero. I still have plenty to learn and appreciate any type of input from any of the developers as to how to implement and make some modules of the hardware fully functional. Credits aswell to all those throughout this forum who have provided some sort of developer advice along the way, cause I can gaurantee that I probably read it at some point during this week.
Things I wish to know how to activate/make functional:
Bluetooth
Wi-fi
Automatic APN
Apps2SD (Some reason wont load them off the SD)
Camera
GPS?
If anyone knows how to fix any of these, please let me know ^^
Happy flashing and good luck! ^^

How exactly do you a port a rom for a different phone..i.e. stock android onto the hero.
Just change a few files around and swap the kernel over to make sure it boots on it and thats it ^^

The entire XDA community
You have at least one more tester now count me in!
I'll be a tester if you want.
Sent from my ST15i using XDA App
I could be a tester. I have another account on the forum but I must get it back, LOL. So, reply to janne.paasimaa(at)gmail.com if you have something. I will follow that topic and I will tell ya my another account later.
@ OP
Hope this catches some devs eyes. I really hope some help out with a GSM port or possibly a CM8 based on ICS when its out
PS. Its better to put the date tag at begining of topic title in short format, ie [4.10.11]
You might want to have some pre-requisites for testers otherwise the vast majority of posts to this thread will be "Me too!!!11!" posts.
The primary difference between CDMA/GSM ports is at kernel level. The only real hardware difference is in the radio, touchscreen, processor, sound etc. are all the same.
I'ld like to help with it as much as I can, I do dev on my galaxy 3 now
If really the prime comes this month and we get ics sources we can forget honeycomb(although Google will need ta keep it sumwhere else, R.I.P. android.git.kernel.org)
I will defenitly be a tester, no matter what ...
I would gladly help if you show me where I could find tutorials for developing for android so I could help out. I must add I have some good experience with C/C++ and some with C#. If you would be so kind to send me a PM with some tutorials I would gladly help
i would love to be a beta tester but i cant make a nandroid backup on kratos.. any ideas?
can't wait. I am so anxious.
thanks DEV's for all the hard work in advance!!!
I very much doubt any real devs are going to bother with HC now. Spacemoose abandoned it without notice or explanation which is a real shame as he seemed really dedicated to the cuase, and oldmacnut looks like he has given up on challenge aswell.
IMO this is now just wishful thinking. Our best bet is to wait for ICS source to drop.
I have an early port of oldmancut's latest HC release I'm uploading right now,but this evening I can't test so I'm posting it here for the braves who can test
It's based upon old kernel sources and MAY wipe internal SD as old builds. ETA: 50 minutes!

spacemoose1 he doesn't need to explain why he abandoned the project
you must know , everyone here have another life outside the XDA forum
if he got the time , we should has it along time ago , but he doesn't have the time
cheer up ,
anyways , trust me , HC is not that good , GB is away better
HC is so damn bugy lagy crap , i use gtab10.1 and i can't tell you how many lags i get per second , so how about a ported hc ? how it will be you think ?
Lets stop banging our head on closed source HC . ICS is most probably coming on 11 october in samsung unpacked google episode.
ok i did flash it..
these errors come's up afhter boot.
Gmail (proces.com.google.android.gm) stopt
moon phase pro (proces.com.daylightmap.moon.pro.android)
gun bros (proces.com.glu.android.gunbros_free)
messages (proces.com.android.mms)
after close all errors it goes to the honescreen.
menu button not working.
home and back working.
auto turn screen not working.
keyboard don't show when trying to connect with wifi.
when i push the power button ones it reboots.(normali it put off the screen only.
btw boots in 35 sec..so pretty fast
all software still working.so it did not wip anything.
i will come back with more in a while..
hope it helps a bit so far.
regards stef
Downloading, will report asap...
Edit:
Booted in a minute or so, it gave me a Welcome screen with the list of languages and the Start button, I can choose language but nothing happens when I press the button so can't move further...
Wiped again and reflashed - same result. Stuck for now...=\
Btw, when the screen goes to sleep, it sends the device into reboot after a few seconds.
2sevensheaven, how did you pass through the Welcome screen?..
i just pushed the next button en cancel..
and like u say..when the screen goes out..it reboots.
i will now try a factory reset and see what happens.
This is an alpha build, very little is working, and it may have SOD issues. Putting it here both for further testing and to ask for help, getting a error from RIL about not connecting to the socket, if anybody has any info on that, please post or PM it to me.
What works:
Touchscreen
Most keys
Apps
USB
Audio
SD Card
What doesn't:
Radio
Wifi (but it's close)
Bluetooth
Data
Headphones

Hope this keeps going. When I had my moment and my transform, I seen you around sdx a lot. I learned so much there but I haven't checked in there in a while since I got my evo3d. My wife has my old transform now but she's almost up for a new phone. I'll def do some testing for yah when I she upgrades, or maybe before then if data gets going first!

Well, at least Joseph Mother is developing somewhere. Very little happens on SDX anymore... This is wwjoshdew, and I helped you get that Moment or whatever it was with the donation!
Good for you mate! Can't wait to see how this turns out.
Our Samsung Epic forums has an outstanding CM7 crew. They got it from alpha to official in like 3 months. Uberpenguin, noobnl, and decad3ence to be specific.
Keep it up! Will definitely be using this,
I have a Samsung Intercept .... been playing with different ROM's and config's as it takes the 'perfect combo' to have everything you want on this phone. But I don't have another phone to use when I play with this one...... I would be willing to test when the ROM has less 'not working' componnents..... Let me know and GOOD LUCK as us Samsung Intercept users and being left behind with different options...THX
Do you have an svn and would you like help developing the ROM? I have an old intercept lying around. I upgraded a while back so it doesn't matter if I mess with it.

HELLO EVERY BODY I was just wondering if it is possible to do a port of benjamingwynn's super awsome .sense rom to the mytouch 3g slide?
It's just a really great rom that might just bring the mt3gs back for one last time.
Just don't want to give up on this phone, I love it to much.
well, i might, but, im more focused on getting WiFi to work in ANY sense 3.5 rom
Well that is important and I thank you for working on it! I
I just wanted to know so I can give porting a rom a try. Want to contribute something instead of just using.

well, start by setting up either a linux partition, or install cygwin (you need the custom one in the dsixda kitchen thread) and setting up your kitchen, but for the most par, just make sure you are trying to port a non-sense rom with a sense base, or vise-versa
Also, always replace /system/usr and /system/bin/akmd
but you will figure out what else on your own

Dont know if this will help or not. You may or may not be aware of it. I checked out the thread a little, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445517 and development has been suspended. Apparently there were some problems with wifi and cell service on the latest version 3.0 from the little bit I read there. I did notice a few people saying that v2.0.1 was working pretty good for them though.
It also appears that they had it working for the Legend in v2.0.1 so that could be the easiest port if you do decide to tackle it. (The Legend is nearly identical to our Espresso if I am remembering correctly)
v3.0 was available for the Wildfire and the Salsa, and since we have a working port of Salsa, that may help as well (for either the 3.0 or 2.0.1).
Sorry I can't be much more help than this right now. Hopefully this can help give you some ideas.

One more question what are the minimum requirements for a PC, I have 4 gigs of ram two hard drives one with 250 gb the other with 1 tb and a pentium core duo processor I think. (Not sure on the processor, been a while since I looked)

I would say that should be plenty. I have not yet attempted compiling or porting myself but i use a much weaker machine for a lot of my android stuff and it has been pretty good for the mods and such ive been working on. Search google or xda for android development min requirements and you should find some info on recommended specs for what u want to do.

one more thing I tried to plug my mt3gs to my pc but neither my wife's laptop or my desktop wont recognize my phone neither htc sync or as a mass storage device, as I am going to start my little project on saturday. So just want to know if there is a solution for this? Can someone please help me your help is very very appreciated.
Have u tried a different cable? Does the phone start charging when u plug it into the PC? if u just want to transfer files u can try an app like SwiFTP from the market. I believe there are also ways to run adb over wifi, but ive never looked into it so not totally sure bout that. Did u check to make sure in settings that its not set to Charge Only?

This all started to happen with the original cord that came with the phone but I will try different cords just too see if I can get it to work. And if not I will look in to that adb through wifi thing, but most likely if a different cord works I will still research that whole process. I thank you for your help and advice. :thumbup:
