MyTouch 4G Kernel Source Code

Source code released this morning. Give it a whirl devs, i'm sure we're all curious to see what this phone can do.
http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/glacier-2.6.32-g52a2a81.tar.gz

Good deal. Overclocking is a big one for me. Maybe after I learn some more programming with my degree I can syart helping these guys on new phones...
Also, I am not sure if TMobile is going to disable wi-fi calling or tether features, but we should jack them on the idea of charging us too.

This should be a good day for us MT4G owners I hope!
All kernel sources are here: http://developer.htc.com/

Nice! It's about time! As much as I love the stock version I need to see what this baby can do.

I know it might FEEL like a long time, but this is actually AMAZINGLY quick for HTC to release source compared to some of their other phones.

awesome, hopefully the phone will get some dev love now

This was all Kmobs was waiting on. He mentioned (twitter) last night that ETA for CM6 was 12/25/10, contingent upon source release. Since this came out WAY ahead of the usual time frame for releases, i'm thinking we'll get something long before Christmas.

This means we'll get ROM's soon...I hope?

It means custom kernels, not roms. Though it does technically mean we'll get CM6 sooner since it uses a custom kernel.

Download ADW or Launcher Pro out of the market. I'm used to CM6, so I went with ADW. Feels like home.

Yep, bloatware cleanup, ADW install, and SDcard cleanup are on the menu tonight. Hopefully someone will have an OC kernel up by this evening.
I wonder if we'll be able to break the 2GHz barrier on the MT4G, I know they hit 1.9 on the G2.

I'm thinking it will crush the G2's scores. Although that really doesn't matter much to me so much as what they'll be able to do with OC/UV. I want to see how much battery life they'll get out of the MSM8255.

Yeah ya! I just jizzed my pants!! Oops lol

I dunno if I'd go so far as to say "crush" however I'd be surprised if it wasn't higher. I agree though equal performance to stock with much better battery life is far more exciting because stock is already fast as hell.

[Q] Best Incredible rom (stability is key)

A friend has had the Incredible since release. I have the EVO (also since release) and I rooted mine the day I got it. Since that time I've been attempting to convince my buddy to root his phone. I've almost got him to agree to do it (actually, I'll be doing it for him) so I've been doing a bit of research on the Incredible. I got the root method down http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-incredible-hacks/102748-how-root-stock-2-2-using-unrevoked-3-3-a.html if anyone has a different suggestion, please let me know.
I've also looked through the roms available and there is a very good selection but I think that SkyRaider Sense 3.5 probably looks like the best option for him. I know the suggestion of "try a few and see what you like" but the problem with that is that he just wants something that works and he doesn't have to mess with. His biggest complaint is battery life and I'm sure, just as with my EVO, that any rom would be an improvement over stock in that respect.
What I'm looking for is the closest to the stock experience with a focus on stability. For anyone familiar with the EVO roms, I've been primarily using Fresh (although, currently running CM7 )since I got my phone and I'd like to find something along the same lines.
I know this was long, I hate reading long posts, but thank you in advance to whomever could give a bit of advice.
P.S. He was all excited with the iPhone announcement and I'm doing my best to show him the benefits of Android over iOS.
Edit: I also noticed that there is a leaked kernel running around. I noticed that the most recent OTA was in November and I was thinking that there might be another fairly soon. Considering that he doesn't want to have to mess with things and update things, I was thinking that it might be better to wait till after the roms get updated to the next OTA before flashing one for him. Does anyone have any information on if and when a new OTA for the Incredible might be released?

In my opinion, you're right. SkyRaider Sense 3.5 would be great, that's what I'm running and it is unbelievably stable.

Thanks for the reply. 2 questions: 1) how's the battery life? 2) I noticed in the screen shots that the 3G Mobile Hotspot app was still in there. Did he mod it to work without any extra fees? Is there a benefit to using it over using Wireless Tether (which is what I use on my EVO)? I noticed that as late as v3.3 he included Wireless Tether.

This is pretty good too. It gets pretty good battery life (although I am on an extended battery so your results may vary)
The main draw there is all the optimizations on it, the thing is fast.
It's also been very stable for me.
I haven't really liked the built in 3g hotspot, Wireless Tether has been faster and more reliable for me

Battery life is very good, and it actually doesn't include mobile hotspot. He includes WiFi tether, but it has the mobile hotspot icon.

Thanks. I know someone on the EVO section cracked the Sprint hotspot app so I wasn't sure if it was the same deal. Personally, I think wireless tether is better anyway.

Yeah, there's a work around for the Verizon Mobile Hotspot. However, wifi tether works great and I'd rather just avoid verizon all together.

It always starts out peaceful enough....
@ OP: The reason we close what's referred to as "Best ROM Threads" is because the vast majority of the type end up a nasty flame fest. The reasons should be obvious. It's really a matter of opinion, and then you get the fanboys of certain devs chiming in, and well, you get it. You did nothing wrong. My advice is to read, try a few, then make that decision for yourself. It's easy to find the most popular ATM, because they stay on page 1 of the dev sub. That doesn't necessarily make it the best, however. Give some a shot and see what's best for you. Enjoy the forums.

I actually really do like that, very nicely done. Still has that stock feel but just tastefully modified. First thing I noticed was the Gingerbread feel to the status bar and then I read the OP and saw that's what you were going for. I'm currently using CM7 on my EVO and one of the things I really like about it are the green accents.
Question though: I know the power control widgets in the notification tray can be modified, would it still keep the same theme if I were to change them up? (something like the orientation button, I think a flashlight or bluetooth button might be more useful in that spot)

Bad News on the Skyraider front
Sorry to be the bearer, but the developer of SR has posted that he will no longer be developing the ROM. No further updates... He has done an amazing job, but unfortunately, personal issues stepped in the way.

Right here I'd say Magnolia would probably be your best bet, even if only because it's being actively updated; it's fast, it's stable, and the time I've spent with it gave the impression of giving good battery life

yeah, I definitely might be leaning more toward that. 2 questions though:
1) Do you know if the 2.6.32.17 kernel is the latest official? I was looking at the list of kernels and it was dated from October. I know there was an Incredible OTA in November, just wondering if you knew if that was the same kernel in that OTA. Just wondering in case I want to revert to stock from the modified version that's included with the ROM.
2) I noticed in the screen shots there was a notification bar power and control widget with a planet for it's icon, is that mobile data? From left to right they are WiFi, Bluetooth, I believe mobile data, GPS, screen brightness, and sound control.

Not sure about the first one but the second is correct

Porting 1.6 to dinc...

Has anyone tried to port Android1.6 to the incredible?
Is it even possible?
If no one has, I'd like to give it a shot! I think I have my pc set up for building from source and for porting, just finished with all the downloads and installs with ubuntu 10.10, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Why would you want to port Android 1.6? That's 10 steps back from 2.2 ...

I know, just wanted to see if it was possible, and to see what I could do with it if I was able to port or build.

On top of that. My g/f likes my dinc, but she says its too confusing for her, but when I had a MOTO devour, she loved that phone. So I was thinkin that if I could make a custom 1.6 Rom for her, she wouldn't have to steal my phone anymore and turn around and complain about not being able to work it!!

1. Probably not possible based on the hardware specifics and apis needed.
2. Why even waste the time? Just date a girl who isn't so stupid that she can't work a drop dead simple OS with a UI layer that makes it even EASIER.

I see your point, but do you really have to be a **** about it?

If you're looking for a simple-ish rom try MIUI. It's slightly buggy, but I've used it as my daily since Novemeber 2010. It is visually influenced by iOS so it is possibly more simple to use, but it still offers all the benefits of Android.

Yea, ok. I've used miui before! That may actually work for her, thanks.

why not take 5 minutes and show her how to use the phone? **** even my dad is learning how to use my phone and he still uses a flip phone. convinced him to wait for the Inc2. never thought I'd see the day he used a smartphone. never in a million years. He a construction worker with huge hands, you should be able to teach her what she needs. It's not too hard to distinguish the phone button and stuff like that HTC Sense is made to be simple. just not idiotproof like the iCrap. Good luck.

Teaching her to use this phone is like teaching a 2 yr old quantum physics, and this time she won't even try. I told her there's not really any difference in operating between 1.6 and 2.2 but she just.....don't......get it, and I give up.

Given that they update weekly, quite a lot. It's running GB now, and has incorporated things such as app/system backup, a simple file explorer (with ftp-server functionality) and quite a bit more. The chinese devs created an english side to their site and posted a youtube video of the newest generation. Can't post links yet, but go to youtube and search for "MIUI ROM 7th closed beta version" and it'll pop right up.

Paranoid Android for our GS3(Will it be ported)

I was watching a review today of Paranoid Android for the i9300 & it looked amazing! I've been enjoying the new TW ui, much to my surprise, so I've been taking advantage of its many new features, but tablet mode was looking so great on the 4.8 inch screen! I've only ever really tested it much on my old Sensation, but the smaller screen with the lesser resolution made it seem not so ideal. I really think it could take advantage of the beautiful bigger screen of the T999! It's so unique and it would give us a whole new way to use our phone. Does anyone know how to port this to our phone? Maybe someone here is friendly with the Paranoid Roms development team? Any ideas or insight?
PS: I've tried playing around with the dpi without much success . I couldn't seem to get the phone to behave as a tablet like with some other devices, and it didn't seem to be very stable after modifying it...

Oh God yes, lol! I was using the Sensation quite a bit before the gs3 was released because there's a lot of development & it can be a fun device to play with, but it's not worth comparing to the gs3. I'll probably always keep my sensation because I don't like to get rid of any of my phones, and I'm kind of a phone junkie, but it's been on loan to a friend for a few weeks now. The Gs3 will be a huge upgrade if the Sensation is the only phone you've been using.

It probably will get ported I also can't wait I used it on my galaxy nexus and love the Rom, the tablet ui is amazing and makes thin easier IMO

From what I have heard it should be a pretty easy port seeing as it's based off of cm9/10. I 'll probably give it a try tomorrow and upload a test build for you to try out, but im not making any promises because this week is busy for me.

Well, if your asking what I personally would like, then you freakin" rock sir! I suppose if I were to choose which I'd like to see first it would be a cm9 base, simply because odds are it would be the most stable. A jb build would be incredible, but I generally only flash roms that are fully functional & can be used as a daily driver. I'm not the flashaholic I once was mostly because I don't have the time to be. If your able to get it booting & its stable that would be fantastic! I've personally always looked at PA as a rom that's more for something like the Note, but I think the gs3 is just large enough that I want to run with it & reinvent how I use my primary phone. If we get a 100% functional build, I may never look back, but like I said above, I've never really driven it hard before?

I got it booting but I have no signal wifi works though. I'm no dev so maybe someone can help me.
I have no signal cause it made me lose my IMEI

OK so I restored my Nandroid and I have my IMEI back. My IMEI said unknown in phone settings so im guessing that it was just the roms fault not a wiped IMEI? anyway here are some pics and I will upload the build. Root doesn't work as well as pad control but it's a start. Any dev is welcome to take this and use it to try and make it more functional.

Wow Bro, that was fast! I know nothing about developing or porting, but I've just been starting to look into a few threads on the 101. It's definitely nothing that I'll pick up overnight, lol! Maybe if you post the build in development someone will work on it with you? I never thought I'd say this, but TW is running so smooth & has so many nice touches on FreeGS3 that I probably won't flash anything until this is running strong or a super stable Jellybean Rom of any flavor drops.

+1! When we get PA stable, that will get me away from FreeGS3 to check it out. Every day that I use FreeGS3 I fall more I think love with Red's tweaked TW build! I would run this on any device, there are alot of great features in TW now, & Red added even more. I love the tablet style apps though, they are so much more funtional. If I could keep a TW base, but get tablet mode for all my apps then that would be the perfect rom for me. I don't think that'll ever happen, so I'll have to run PA for a week once it's finished & see which I prefer.

I see a few things that aren't perfect just looking through the zip. Wont know more until i get it flashed but this shouldn't be too difficult.

I fixed ril. But it broke boot.
Ril paths in build.prop should be
rild.libpath=/system/lib/libril-qc-qmi-1.so
rild.libargs=-d /dev/smd0
But somehow that breaks boot.

[Q] Need help picking a ROM

i know the answer already.....depends on what u want.
but i want to know which is better for the following:
good battery life
great speed (the stock phone is already snappy enough...i dont see how that can be improved really..)
better volume
alot of customization (nav buttons, fast usb charge, etc..)
very stable in every for all the options...like stable wifi, bluetooth, gps and everything.
i noticed some of the ROMs have complaints on network speeds. i dont know enough about this whole thing to understand y the rom would effect that. but i would like to know which ones are best for a phone thats been purchased straight from the play store. right now i have liquid smooth rom. its pretty good. cant complain. but i dont think it has the increased volume option.
if all this has been discussed b4, im sorry but i couldnt find it.
also, some of the roms keep stating how they improved scrolling or made it any faster...i dont understand this....with stock JB rom just straight out of the box....how can u make it any smoother or faster....its practically at top speed limit. and smoother than this and ur gonna break some sort of laws of physics...i cant even tell the difference but my greedy side wants the best and fastest...just so my mind is at ease. lol anyway, any input would b greatly appreciated. thanks

Well stock rooted with tweaks is prolly the best look for a non themed debloated from with ram/build prop/ and unit.d tweaks

Yeah, what Darunion said, stock is most stable. If you want tons of customizations options try AOKP.

Yes stock is the most stable. But I can suggest you Paranoid Rom.

Like you said, there's no best. But here's a little list of ROMs that I would like to shout out.
AOKP- Most customizable imo. Also unicorns!
Codenameandroid- Also another very customizable ROM.
CM10- Really stable and fast.
Paranoid Android- Hybrid mode. Makes the apps of the phone super customizable
Baked- Inverted. Theoretically gives more battery life, because of the black theme.
Stock- Most stable.
Have a good day

take it easy brah
and to everyone else, thank you very much. u have been MOST helpful. saved me a ton of time on research with trial and error, which would have wasted a ton of my time. better to get the info out of people who have first hand experience in that. instead of researching for hours, i instead went and killed a few more pandas. again, thanks guys. seriously.
im gonna assume that the roms that u listed at the bottom are probably the "gooder" ones of the rest. so i wont bother with anything else...im gonna give these a try.

thats what im using now. its not bad at all. the only issue i have i guess is that i dont think that rom has its own volume mod. so i flashed a seperate kernel that had that. other than that i havent found anything wrong with it. its pretty good.

OP why do you want others to do your work for you? In most cases all the features are listed in the OP of the ROM. SO if you are looking specifically for the volume mod, find one that has it, back up your phone and flash it.

thanks for the title change. noticed that.
the reason is because im fairly new to this phone. i know for SURE that this phone has TONS of devs working on it. and im pretty dam sure it has just as many ROMs. which is great lol. and alot of people who have been with this phone since the beginning and have probably used almost every ROM and know all the roms and which ones are best. so instead of me trying to do what they did from the start, i wanted to take the short cut and learn from everyone elses errors and experiences. i dont mean to offend anyone or speak out of place. but you gotta admit, flashing every single rom in a row to test it out for myself would take a long time. i can just ask people who have already done all that and theyll tell me. which is what happened. and once again im very grateful for everyones help so far. even though im still flashing most roms one after another just to check which is better. lol. but you guys steered me in the right direction.

Flashing several different ROMS and digging through threads is part of the fun.
I am personally using Affinity with Franco's kernel and love this combo. I have tried about 6 or 7 different JB ROMs and find Affinity to be my favorite. It has some customization but not an overwhelming amount and it's stable. I have had this setup for about 3 weeks and have had zero issues.
Try quite a few but I would tell anyone to start with AOKP and CM10 and branch out from there.

I would think that it would be unstable at 1.8ghz. Try it at 1.2ghz.
I use it at its defaults except I change color calibration and sometimes mess with governor.
