[DEV]Firefox OS aka b2g[PORT] - HTC Wildfire S

Hi Guys
I am letting you all no that i am start to working on a Firefox OS port that will make are wee phone stand out from the armv6 crowd by porting a newly release source code for an android distro thats not from Google AOSP, CM, MIUI or AOKP this will give us a great looking GUI and hopefully leave ICS and JB in the dark just like Qualcomm left us in the dark by not releasing libs for ICS and JB video playback etc. If you can guess what distro it is ill will add you to be a beta tester before public release. I will be downloading its source code after college and see how far i get in terms of booting etc the one good thing is this os will not need root as its completely open and not locked down like stock android.
I no it will be hard moving to a new OS because all of your android apps and games might not work but i will not no fully until its booting but if all works well we will just forget about android completely and move to the other OS

Open source, not locked down? IOS is locked down.....
Ubuntu? That's all I can think of....

(Direct Link Hosting)Roms/Kernel/Soft-mods

Hi everyone
Over the next few days I am going to be uploading every WFS roms and kernels including CDMA roms and I will be posting an application that will notify you on an update instead of you checking the threads all the time .
If a dev wishes I do not upload the roms etc to my server just send me a pm and ill skip your item/s
I will also be putting up tweaks that can be flashed via recovery so in other words its going to be a WFS repo do to speak so if users want to make use of this run this program to add the application and build.prop line.
Application being made
No link yet
If I do not get a request from a developer not to put there items up then I will go ahead and upload there items.
Thanks

Great idea,
Tipp: add a download counter and a visitors counter to see how much people visit this site
PS. You can add my Rom
Model: Wildfire S A510e
Recovery: unofficial CWM
Rom: JxMatteo_ROM_V1. 1 with Link2sd - OC - Rooted
Need us to login & upload &/o provide fields for display (name of rom | developer or team) or.. sort (ie aosp, sense, custom | or 2.3.4, 2.3.5, 2.3.7)? A (pertinent) sorting feature (down the road even) would make it even better than the ones that won't support our devices.
Sent from my HTC_A510c using Tapatalk
More informations, mods, roms and so on will result that more people will buy this device, and with the new people will be more dev and more test and mod user. It will get popular
This is a very good idea.
I only ask that you include kernels aswell!
And remember to put who they were made by lol.

Public Project List - benjamingwynn

Hello xda members, trolls and devs. As you may or may not know I am a developer of my roms and stuff for the wildfire s. My internet has been down recently so I have been making ideas for new stuff through the long days of boredom.
Heres a list of stuff I'm working on that is wfs related
- Sense 4
- A new ROM called DRAGONROM
- AOKP
- Work on fixing minor bugs in .sense
Here's the list of stuff I will/will probably do:
- Make another AOSP based ROM
- Create a kernel family called soulengine S/I/G
- Build a CM 9 nightly
- Fix Danny's problem
Here's the list of what I'm considering to do:
None atm
Here's a list of things that I don't want to do:
- Port touchwiz
I will only do the above once my ISP fixes up my internet and when have enough free time. Oh and feel free to ask me to do something, and I will add it to the list.

Request + info
I will stop modding/theming/making ROMS for a while. ICS is hating me
Got some problems with apktool etc.
Two things I tried myself but couldn't do (due to above reason and cant make CM9 nightlies).
Sense 4 Multitask
WP7 Multitask
Would like to see them on CM9 and MIUI
But you can always ask me for something on the WFSDev site
I will keep it up to date, ...
This may be of interest to you.
Look forward to your work mate
Sense 3 3D
PLEASE! make the sense 3 3d stuff in a rom, with the marquee transition, the lockscreen spin and the cool animated locks like facebook and the weather!!OMG you would be so cool if you did that. +100,000,000,000..... dev points if you do it!
Stopped and added a few projects. See op. Please note that I always have about 10 projects being worked on at once at any time, this means if something doesn't work and I get annoyed with it I am likely to stop that project until I can be bothered starting it again.

Jelly bean :D / I (almost) broke my phone :'(

If you don't already know jelly bean was released at Google recently. The source code isn't yet available for the public so I have decided to see what I can get working from the SDK (until the source comes out) as a little project.
On an extreme downside I broke 1/3 (the middle) of my phones touch screen by water damage - so... bummer. :'(
EDIT: It's been in dried rice for a good 4 hours now... time to test :/
EDIT2: THE RICE WORKED! - My touchscreen is now back to it's good, working state
Try porting the sdk? Good luck, it will be compiled for armv7 so pretty much impossible. Only porting via source is possible unless you are some hardcore machine code hacker!

Yeah I've already tried porting it from the sdk image. Got so far then the entire thing collapsed.
I'm going to wait for the source code now though.
Sent from my Wildfire S A510e using xda premium
Hahaha good luck to you on the work once the sources are released jelly bean is a nice upgrade, I espically love the "smart" app updates! Hopefully it shouldn't take too long as most of the base would be ICS which we already have running on our phone with a few minor bugs

I already dumped the system myself. But it refuses to boot. An error system errors out basically. Silly armv7 bins on an armv6 phone don't work so I use ics ones. That causes major errors apparently.

Sorry, I'm leaving

I just have to say that I'm leaving this forum because I have a new tmobile upgrade and I am recieving a Samsung Galaxy S3 in a few weeks.
What I have left to do before I loose my Wildfire S:
* Finish my Downgrader Tool
* Complete my ROM
* Helping PORT Jelly Bean 4.1 to the wfs to boot (maybe)
Sorry to hear you're leaving.
Do you really have to leave though? Maybe just develop less for the WFS but every now and again, do a little WFS developing?
Have fun with the GS3!

As soon as the source is available I will start playing with it and I will link up the github.
