[Q] Small Dev Scene? - HTC Wildfire S

Hey Guys,
I´m wondering why there is such a small amount of devs for the WS. If I look in other Threats there are a lot of custom roms and especally a ported CM 7. For the WS only one dev is trying to port.
So whats the reasons?
- Bootloader?
- Crappy phone overall?
- Battery
I love my WS and I love CM, but I need the cam for playing around So I´m thinking about buying a other phone. But I don´t like this.

For me all the options are reasons (second one a bit less, only slow and battery).
If i could use CM fully, i would also be happy.
But now thinking of another phone.

oh i forgot the battery
will edit this

It's only the bootloader! I don't know why people are hating this phone so much, it's actually a good phone.
Overclocked with CM7 will fix both battery and speed problems. The phone has a beautiful screen for such a small phone and probably the sexiest out of the small android phone range.
Don't buy another phone, just wait until HTC unlock it which is definitely going to happen and hopefully the dev scene will take off!
tbh, the only thing that puts me off this phone is the internal memory. Other than that I love it.

I found that CM has kernel for WFS, as they merged sources from marvel source file to the htc-kernel-msm7227 branch. Someone could help me with this?

Send a message to alquez, or post it in the CM7 thread. He should reply.

Already wrote there, waiting for reply
But we need more devs to work on this ...

I don't even know if he is actively developing still. All has been quiet

The twilight years are offering fine fruits....2.3 with sens is getting there, and an miui port..
my device holds optimism, no redundancy just yet
I do not think the Hero is dead. There are still actively maintained ROMs for the Hero.
CM for Hero is dormant because it is lacking a maintainer, nothing more.
It now becomes more important for the active maintainers of the Hero ROMs to contribute their Hero-specific patches back upstream to Cyanogen. Or hopefully one of maintainers of the other ROMs steps up to take over the maintenance of CM for Hero.
I have a 2.2 Rom thats stable and smooth and honestly I would like to see devs continue to work on our devices but I personnally do not see a need for it...surely one or two nice updates are always nice to have around but I think software wise we are at the end of what the hero can handle anyways (though I am not an expert at all)
Funny that everyone thinks its over for the Hero. The CM6 Dev was crap to. But it was easier since there where way less starter problems. But Ninpo was the one who fixed a lot of stuff for that. And send it upstream to CM. Not Loxdev or someone else. ATM we dont have any dev that is sending stuff upstream.
Feeyo fixed a lot. But he is not sending it, I must say I Agree in some points with him. Elelinux his build is still with the annoying bug so that is a no go, and as far as I know not really sending stuff their way.
In short the hero dev is ran, and has been ran a long time from the individuall devs for a long time.
my god,i like cm's rom,it's so good

CDMA is different at all, cuss a lot in the USA got that phone and well most of the EU guys got a new one. So that is a small prob there.

well, laziness maybe. but I'm quite certain that isn't the motivating factor for feeyo and some others ;-)
I agree riemervdzee, why not sending bugs fixes back to CM?¿?¿?, In fact, I think we really need a good base ROM and others around making changes for getting better, but CM is the base ROM after all...

I have no idea. Samsung seems like a logical choice because it have good specs and does seem like its not impossible to unlock it Still I find that the Samsung quality is at least one level down from HTC.... But HTC is bootloader locking their newer devices.
So it really is a tough call. Anyway don't have the money for a new device now anyway, so for now I'll stick to the good old hero

Inc no longer receiving 2.3, according to HTC Rep?

From Droid Life on Twitter:
Droid Life
I must stay, not surprised if it's true. The time it was "supposed" to happen came and went, with no word. I bet they do the same thing with the 2.3 release that they did with the HTC Desire, put it out there on their development site and state that it's for "advanced users". Good thing we had the leak a little while back, and amazing developers who spend endless hours tweaking and adding things to make it usable!
Hopefully this is a mistake. Otherwise, it would be nice if they could release the source code so that those who actually care (xda devs, etc) can deliver the goods. However that's wishful thinking.

i could have told you that in march when it EOL'd HTC still sells and supports the device, and alot of verizon stores have accessories for the phone on clearence as in, under 4 bucks sitting in a cardboard box in the back clearence, (IE. they want to get rid of them)
so, yeah, i could have told you that already, and we probably will see a source code release, they released the source code for GB on the samsung galaxy s phones, and i think either MIUI or cyanogenmod already has 2.3.4 on the fascinate, with the right kernel.

I don't think we'll be seeing source code. AFAIK, they're only obligated to opensource within 30 days of officially releasing it.
snq- managed to reverse engineer the desire's gb kernel when it was leaked, and created a closed-source kernel with governers and oc/uv as modules. So it's possible to have a custom kernel, but I know for a fact that I don't possess the skill required to do that. We'd have to talk to the resident kernel hackers about that.

Agreed, time to root to take advantage of this phone if you haven't. Not only can you run Gingerbread, but get better battery life and better overall feel.
I saw the reverse engineered HTC Desire kernel, as since my g/f has one on USCC now. I couldn't figure out how it was done, other than reverse engineered...impressive.
Maybe we'd get lucky and some developer would do the same, as I think it'd make the 2.3 Sense ROMs run better...
I am so thankful for our devs/modders/themers who put in the time!

/10char
The biggest problem we will have, if HTC doesn't release the update, is that they will not HAVE to release the Gingerbread kernel source. That means no OC or other great tweaks to the kernel.
I just want a tun.ko module for the gingerbread kernels so that I can use VPN again with the new Sense 3.0 ROMS! Come on, we atleast need the source!
I'd be way more upset about not getting gingerbread if it wasn't already available with the aosp roms.
Sure it sucks not getting the code to modify sense kernels, but honestly, with the dev community around here, that's not a huge loss.

Lets start nagging them about ICS
Maybe there's a way to get HTC to start putting leaks on their dev center site so that the community can play with them too. Is there a way to mod one of the other GB kernels source codes to fit the Inc?

Actually yes. Having a kernel dev that has the knowledge or is willing to that for us....
seems that chad is the only active kernel dev left in this forum. i found a site that had pretty detailed instructions on how to set up a linux box to build kernels and it doesn't look all that difficult. my only problem is linux, i kind of suck at it, though i've played with it off and on for the last 6 years. right now i don't have a linux box but in december i'm getting a new laptop and will turn the old one into a dedicated linux box so maybe i'll look at it then. i also plan to move to the iphone, i know you don't have to say it i drank the kool-aid, but this will free up my inc for me to do more experimentation with.
We will have to wait and see! THe new HTC Vigor is looking promising.
^noob

Want to remind you..

Hey guys,
As you have probably noticed, the development at the desire has quite "stopped"
Many devs are really "busy" and others have abandoned the desire.
The ONLY working dev is Coolexe or MichaelM.
I personally think it's time to move on to a next device.
What you guys think?
Will there come more desire devs? or will this be the "end"?
Bout kernels: Once they told us, when open source kernel is released, the desire will be muchhhhh better, but I personally think there hasn't change much!
Kernels are still not as they should be, 1 kernel got lockscreen lag or batt drain, others freeze. Know what imsaying?
I'm not saying the devs are that bad, but this is the end to me I think.
Share you'r opinion below!

ooooh 1 whole month ago. Actually I am working on a build now but quality is more important to me than getting out updates every 2 days.
But to say there are only 2 devs working on the desire is completely wrong and I find your posts not only offensive but also inaccurate and counter productive.
Edit> Also forgot to mention Droidzone and Sibere, then all the kernel devs. not all devs build roms.
And Kali- is a dev,. he doesn't just "post builds" if you look at his git hub you can see his commits,.
Worst thread ever!
Well I see it more dimensional:
1. Sense: it seems like really slowed down a bit, but on the other hand Sense 3.5 was available very quickly. Dridzone is also contributing here (piety he resists newer Sense for now).
2. ASOP: CM7 + bunch of other ROMs - well CM is stable, rest is fluctuating (for me it is only CM that seems interesting)
3. MIUI: active
Actually now is the time to wait for ICS sourcecode to enable further milestone. I guess Sense will decrease in popularity with ICS based CM9 released. For me the only thing thet stops me from CM7 as daily are Exchange ActiveSync issues.
Piety that for few days now both Coolexe and michelm_007 remain silent. Anyway DHD seems to be the main driver of HTC community - Desire seems to rather follow, not drive progress (in matter of new sense porting). Tha is basically due to small internal memory that is the main step to consider when porting some new ROMS. The speed issue due to obsolete platform (CPU/GPU) is also stronger here from DHD, so it really is the fade out period for the Sense on Desire. Next Sense will most likely be even more difficult to be run smoothly...
Sense will gain popularity again when Sense 4.0 on top of Android 4.0 D) will be released.
Dont see that running on the trusty Desire though
RootSU,
I didn't want to be rude,
But I think you understand that this desire community isn't how its supposed to be.
You have to agree that the BEST devs abonded, like baadnewz, robocik, leedroid (comes back)
It's not completely dead but its silent here in the rom section.
Hope you understand my point
I understand that the desire is phasing out. I only debate the fact that there are only 2 active devs. I just think you're exaggerating the situation, be that knowingly or otherwise.

isnt it logical that people move on to new devices, including the devs? no point stating the obvious in a thread here... just stick with whats left of the desire community, start developing yourself or abandon ship and go for a newer device... you should at least be thankful for all that has been done for our awesome device so far...
*note* im not bashing you in any way, its just that i think the way you wrote the OP is pointless. you can move on to a Nexus device where the development doesnt stop till the devs faint from working overtime...

This. I even flashed AuraxTSense again for a brief period before changing ship to aosp because of this.
It is only natural that people continue developing elsewhere, depending on where they upgraded. You can't expect them to support old device like you can't expect from HTC. Neither party involved has superhuman abilities, so I can't say anything but great thanks for making Desire more pleasurable to use than it already was.
The thing that concerns me are the reasons both Neophyte and AdamG went. Rapid deterioration of community and quality of information available in the period of last 12 months. Both these great devs went explicitly because of that (one for good and one to his respective forum).

Development so far on our beloved One X. Your opinions

Basically as the title of the thread says. How do you guys feel so far in regarding the development of the phone?
Do you guys think we shall be seeing more devs coming to us and building fantastic roms? What in regards when the kernel source drops? Or do you feel that the S3 will get the most development?
I for one i am really happy with how things have started. From reading our devs are the best in the business from the HTC side and we have some of the big names. But are more going to come or what would you guys like to see?
Want to say many thanks for our good devs in making our device better and i just hope the development carries on and we have more devs coming to us even though the S3 is out as well.
What you guys think?
I've got Insertcoin, that's all I need!
In all seriousness, once the kernel source drops, I'm sure show-p and faux123 will be all over it. I very much look forward to that!
Considering the very short amount of time the phone has been available to the public, I don't think we could ask for more!
As I said when I first got this phone, the devs we have here are a who's who of my favourites dating back to the Tytn II: LeeDroid, Baad, monx, VillianRom, Core Droid, Mike1986.... also some promising 'new' devs such as J4n87.
All is looking well.

Also really happy so far, but I'm curious about the kernel source. How long does HTC tend to wait until they release it? Can we expect it within a few weeks or are we talking months? Or might they never release it? :O
Also, does anyone know exactly what they're waiting for? Ie, why didn't they release it simultaneously with the phone?
Cheers!

I`m sure Lee said in his thread that they had 90 days to release the source..i hope it comes sooner than that so the devs can rip it apart and build a better kernel.
From my understanding there's still a lot of unknowns surrounding the kernel and the proprietary drivers, not to mention s-off. I'm confident the devs are all over it like a cheap suit but HTC have done some things differently with the One series which has resulted in some intense chin stroking.
I think once these issues have been overcome (and it will be, its a when not an if) we'll see a lot more community development.
Personally I can't wait to run CyanogenMod on this beast.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the One X isn't running on a Full ICS kernel, It's a Gingerbread Kernel of sorts right?
(due to the first time using Tegra 3?)
If so, my theory would be that they're working on a Full ICS kernel and then releasing the source.
Of course, I'm a noob and I could be talking balls.

My One X is the first Android I have ever had and I am new to the whole development and custom ROM community. I have nothing to compare it to but what I have seen is quite amazing.
There is plenty of custom roms already, mike is pushing new versions of he's amazing rom every other week, and he also announced that they will be working together with faux to improve our one x experience once the kernel source is available. And what I have read about faux, i am pretty happy about the future of my One X

CyanogenMod 7 Project

Hi guys,
So for the past week I think I have at least wiped/flashed/Odin'd different ROMs for my new Captivate Glide at least a hundred times. I've finally settled on thegreatergood's LiteROM 0.9.0 and it's working great for me. Not only the one ROM though as I've had to find many workarounds for different things. Flashables/kernels/apks you name it. Although I have no regrets and I'm really proud of how It's like a beast in my pocket, I am quite bothered by one thing which is that the whole thing feels like a big piece of patchwork..
Coming from a HTC Desire Z running CM7 serving me loyally for many years, I miss that officiality (<-- oops, red snakes.. not sure that's a word. Whatever. Shakespeare made his own words too right? ) and the stability that CM7 offered.
I'm a humble man, and possibly carry the apologetic traits of a typical Canadian. Instead of whining and/or nagging some senior developer to hurry up on their ICS or JB development I've decided to build my own CM instead.
However some thought, I think the reason why the JB based experimental CM 10.1s for the Captivate Glide have been a difficult task is because it's probably quite a challenge to build something from something that's not currently very well understood, namely the JB. So I thought, why not just build I nice and stable ROM based off of GB and if it does well it could probably officiated as a CM7 port for the Captivate Glide.
I have a feeling that this is a very plausible task. But I have no way to do it alone.. I have zilch experience in development in anything, had to drop out of my C++ course and have been doing nothing but lurking and leeching since I started modding when I was eleven. All I have is a vision. If someone could point me in the right direction or even form a development team with me, I would be very grateful.
And if this goes well, I will have gained some long overdue experience
So.. Anyone?
P.S. I guess this goes in this forum too. But my phone gets real angry when I flash certain things onto it. The biggest issue currently is that it will freeze and crash (more specifically the screen will freeze and fade into white lines..) whenever I try to use ClockWorkMod Recovery.. I dunno if the crappy 1500 mAh China battery I got ripped off with is an issue but I'm waiting on an OEM one in the mail..
Post in general not development bub...

hey bud im with you ... though I think CM9 would be better as ICS has been released, stable, and has a few more tweaks and features that CM7 didn't ... things like in JB where we have a transparent notification pull down, control over the dpi of certain apps etc.
First thing you should do is readup on the compile cm10 from source thread, get your feet wet there it'll get you all setup with a development system .. Linux is a must so I hope that you're savvy in the *nix shell or things will be antagonistic right off the start ...
I installed the CM9 recently and radio etc didn't work .. Guaranteed there is tonnes of information across all devices on xda-developers and even in general development threads.
Scroll through these forums, find the github links and learn how to setup your own, download the sources for the kernels from the other devs (theres a couple CM10.1s out there).
CM7 .. while I appreciate where you're coming from as i LOVED having CM7 on my Galaxy ACE - everything just worked... battery was great, it looked cool, and it was just off the stock enough to be unique and rub in iPhone users' faces
If I had the time I'd take it on with you .. chart your work and links that have helped you as you go along.
maybe he say that, because the glide have GB and ics officialy and not JB, so, if i understand what he say, maybe a romCM based y that version can be more stable, and less bugs, i was thinking about a CM9 too. But, if i remember correctly, it must create a device tree and a lot of thing, but i am not sure becausea never do a rom.

CM9 is based on ICS 4.0.4 ...
Check this link, not for our device but it offers some good insight to CM7 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1273718
Another one for CM9 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20844007
.... maybe I should just build a linux VM and give it a go in my spare time .... we're so starved for developers for our glides even amateur contributions can't hurt .... in the 2nd link the guy said it took him 11 months to learn how to mod for ICS from no experience so ..... depends on how much you want to commit to it ..

yes, i know that, and i was thinking that a cm9 (because there is a ics fully working in the glide) can be a good option, but not sure
This doesn't belong here, please, some mod, move this to General. Thanks

I intend to turn it into development thread. But will have a better audience over General?
And maybe see it more like an educational project with a usuable product?

Flagged to be moved to general. If this turns into a dev thread, then you can flag to move it to the dev section, but you only post in the dev sections if you actually have a product or are actively working on something.
Your intentions seem great, but never wait for someone else to help you, otherwise it will never get done. No one is going to carry you through learning this.
There's a ton of guides out there on how to build, port, cherry pick CM commits, etc. etc. Go find them and start learning. Ask SPECIFIC questions if you have any.
No one shows up to college on day 1 and says I'd like to learn how to be a doctor, engineer, pharmacist, journalist, etc. There's a lot of steps in between. So go and get started.

That doesn't make any sense.... lots of people show up to college and say that, and then enroll in the courses to do that ..
