Umm.. I have no idea what you mean, but you can't just simply jack roms onto another device. I assume you are chasing HTC sense?

you'll probably kill the phone beyond flash recovery
you don't need to install the HTC Desire ROM to get the software.
the only thing you need is to download the .APK from a HTC Desire phone
then install it on to the SGS i9000

No, it's highly unlikely you'd "kill" your phone irreversibly by trying to flash a Desire ROM, those phones are too different for it to be of any real danger. But it won't work, of course, and would require reflashing for sure.
And no, installing a Sense UI application from Desire to SGS is nowhere near as easy as you suggest - you'd need to make the application independent on Desire framework at the very least.

the italian guys forum did it already on the previous Galaxy
we just need to get them to share that with us, as they made it part of the rom for Galaxy instead of having it as an idependent install
it was to do with a special promotion they were doing to advertize their site.

HTC Desire features on Samsung Galaxy S
Sorry for the weird thread name. I'm stuck between the Samsung galaxy S i9000(SGS) and the HTC Desire. The SGS was a winner but still the SGS has issues that can't be overlooked by me.
1) Will Samsung support SGS till android 3 is released and if not is it possible to install stable version of android 3.xx on the SGS. ?
2) Can the HTC Sense UI be ported on the SGS ?
3) Has anybody noticed any lags while using the SGS ?
4) can the touchwiz UI be customised ??
5) when is the froyo update coming

1. Nobody knows how Android 3.x looks like or when it'll be out, so that's a question without answer both for Galaxy and Desire.
2. Yes, but might be a lot of work to port it properly and completely
3. Yes. There are community fixes and now it's been pretty much fixed in some of the leaked Samsung firmwares as well.
4. A bit.
5. September.

I gave Galaxy S a go.
Lag issues are fixed by now.
GPS issues are being investigated, but since this doesnt concern my particular device I dont know much about them.
Well main SGS's annoyances for meh are missing LEDs. One for notification, and another one for camera flash.

[Q] HTC Desire Android port
is it possible that someone makes an Android with Sense port like the HTC Desire one...?!
I think this version with the HTC Sense interface is just more usefriendly than the interface from Samsung...
would be great!

There have been enough threads about this topic already. So far, it's not happened. Perhaps it will eventually happen. And when it eventually does, everyone will know about it.
So please, people, stop asking (making threads) about Sense on Galaxy.

The closest is to use a Launchpro plus theme that does sense. The theme is in the Themes and Apps thread

[BOUNTY $427,5] Desire HD rom Port? (for Vibrant [$80])
The Question: Is there any programmers/devs that think its possible to port the new Desire HD ROM to the Samsung Galaxy S? I think it would be very nice getting the ROM on the SGS.

This question keeps getting asked and as far as I'm aware there are no developers (unfortunately) who are working on, or plan to work on this.
I'd love to be able to try and port it myself. But I don't have the time/skills.

Are there any possibilities that we (a couple of folks) go together any try? Like I wanna learn, want to develop a ROM for my new device. I have not got it yet, but once I do.. I want to customize it.

If it was that easy there would be plenty of custom roms already. There aren't yet, even if there are lots of great developers. Maybe when samsung releases froyo official firmware and kernel something will change, I hope...

Isn't there a fix for multi-touch axis flipping

Now Google maps 5 is out and rotation dosent work, I was wondering about it and remembered that a website had said a member of cyanogen had fixed the axis flipping on the nexus I don't know if this was true, any idea ???
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I seem to also remember something about this...?

Jesus, Google says that his beloved N1 doesn't support it and you want a fix. Here+s a fix : sell the Desire and get a phone with the full multitouch capable panel.

A colleague of mine has a Desire with a rooted ROM (a Sense 2 one) and the rotation works.
So yes, there is a fix.
I hope that HTC will officially release a (Sense 2) upgrade for the Desire, and that will contain the fix, I don't feel like rooting.

O rly.
FYI Sense 2 is the version that shipped with Desire. If you mean the newer Sense, that's on the Desire HD, that's Sense 3.
Which ROM is that again ? And please let him install http://www.appbrain.com/app/multitouch-visualizer-2/org.metalev.multitouch.visualizer2 and make a vid of the "fix".

Maybe Google maps thinks the phone supports multitouch as its a dhd rom and activates the option to use rotate. Rotate should still work...but because of the dual touch 'bug' it will get it wrong some of the time.

Yeah, I remember reading about a fix included in the core, but it was disabled. How would I enable it?

Can't we get the apk which is getting installed on the DHD?

I've read about this after some issues with Nova, which I guess is why it isn't supported anyway. The screen itself is not multi-touch and is apparently dubbed "double-touch" and the axis switching is hardware related, however there is a setting buried somewhere in the Android SDK that was designed to only be enabled for a certain device. Enabling it on the Desire, however, was supposed to alleviate some of the issues with axis-switching, although not a total fix. It was mentioned that CM had this setting enabled on their ROMs for Desire, but whether that is still the case I cannot say. This is just from memory, I'll have to do a bit more digging to refresh my memory.
EDIT: Asked around on the CM IRC and that particular 'feature' was indeed pulled, however was reinstated a few days ago, so probably only on the nightlies for the moment.
EDIT 2: Flashed a CM nightly and it doesn't appear to have made matters any better

Yes the multitouch is indeed enabled in maps on dhd roms, but the problem is not fixed. You can easily see, when your cross the axis with your fingers, and it definately still doesn't work well.

Yes, this issue is very irritating when playing games like SliceIt as well.

The touchscreen hardware is only capable of determining the rectanlge containing the 2 touched points.

If the desire screen is capable of detecting two fingers as long as they don't cross on the y and x axis, two finger rotation should be more than possible on google maps just as long as you keep the rotation no larger that 90 degrees between the y and x axis and even then it should only cause a "hickup" in the rotation so although it won't be great, if active, it should be ok for use!

The two touches is not what bothers me it is the axis flipping that's annoying I will try to flash a nightly and will see what happens.

There's a nexus one two finger fix. Don't know of adesire port of it.
In nexus one development section.
Desire is the source of all suffering.

Has anyone found a fix for multitouch on the desire yet?
i found a link(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767654&page=4) to another post on fixing multitouch on an acer liquid sharing drivers for developers, so can people please take a look and see if something can be done for the desire?
thanks in advance

Lookscreen

Hi, I have a question, is it possible to display the weather lookscreen as in the screenshot
if so, how?

Nope, that's full sense 4, the v only has lite
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA

In the weather settings, you can select the option for 'Weather alerts - Show weather on lock screen every morning' which I've found will appear the first time you access the phone after 6am each morning, but doesn't appear to be any other options to get it on your lockscreen permanently

Yup I have done the same... I think HTC One V is not capable of showing wheather animations.

it's sad ... as one v does not support the full sense 4? ie on this phone is not a complete sense? complete requires more resources from phone? Why so?

sense 4 is designed more for a phone with better gpu such as one S or one X. that's why sense 4 was not released until this ONE series. it's a shame but I guess that in time when one V will have some developers, a full sense will appear for you guys and it will work flawlessly no matter what HTC was thinking when they strip to bone the sense for one V.
I will buy this phone in one month I can't wait !

Just wait a little longer until we have cwm recovery and some interested devs. We'll get an overclock kernel and a full sense 4 port from either the one s or one x.

yeah. One V will benefit from devs from X and S which is awesome (I can think one kernel dev from one X - currently on hero - riemer, but he said that kernels will differ from one x or one s to one v)... Full sense will be possible on One V also, it just needs a custom recovery. Anyone can do a port if he has patience and the right tools. If I get the phone I will more than sure get my hands full to make some ports...

certainly not true that one v cut a functional sense, most likely because the model is not the flagship, but we will wait custom firmware for our developers in the near future with a full sense

Interesting that sense 3.6 on the sensation has some features that are missing on sense 4 on the one v.

This ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639634
Will put full lockscreen sense on its next version. So just wait

yep, but i can't download this rom from uploading.com
there are also normal exchangers, why is this? waiting for the mirror

Can someone port this to stock rom?

[Q] One x usb mass storage and slow motion camera???

Hi all.
I was wondering if there is anyway to get the best of both worlds with my one x?? I need usb mass storage mode at work for using the phone as a usb drive to transfer files as and when i need them. Also use it at home. To achieve this i flashed the cm10.1 4.2.2 rom. Its a nice rom and I was a happy bunny to get usb mass storage back up and running. Only issue is that I (and my kids) used the slow motion camera on video recording quite a lot and its now gone.
My question is: Can I have both of these with a different rom? Can I flash a camera apk seperately to get the slow motion back? I have searched and searched on through the forums but its either one or the other. I love the one x but im up for contract renewal next month so it i cant get what I want out of this phone im going to get a different one. My wifes galaxy s 3 can do it all so might go back to samsung but I liked the quality of htc slightly better than s3.
Any help will be most appreciated.
Cheers steve

I've had a look. Can't find any decent ones. Might have to just wait and hope cm gets it. Would love to start playing with android roms and start developing but haven't got enough time to learn it. That way I could help sort out my issue and mauve help the community also.
Might start looking at upgrades for now. I tried the sense 4.5 camera mod for one x but it did nothing. Think it's not for cm Rom. Just aosp 4.2.2

USB Audio not working on AOSP

I tested the following ROMs and discovered they DO NOT support USB Audio:
AICP 3/06/14
AOSB 2/26/14
Carbon 3/02/14
CM10.2 2/01/14
CM11 3/07/14
Liquidsmooth 3/05/14
PACman 3/05/14
Slimkat 2/16/14
I can confirm that USB Audio DOES work with the GPE ROM. My understanding is that the GPE ROM is built from Sense, so I haven't encountered a single non/Sense ROM that supports USB Audio.
Has anybody had any luck with AOSP and USB Audio on the VZW HTC One?

USB audio requires support in the kernel to work. It is highly likely this support is lacking from the aosp kernel. It is completely possible that a dev could include usb audio though. I recall seeing it as not set in the config but the proper files would also need to be put into place and who knows if that would even compile properly into aosp from sense.

I tried using Lunar kernel in addition to the bundled kernel with each ROM.
I will have to check over on the Lunar thread to see if they know whether support is included in the kernel.
Interestingly, I made a little progress by flashing the latest version of the USB Audio Patcher MOD in the thread started by JackNorris. Now I get the familiar HTC One USB Audio stepping (0 or 100%, no middle steps) as well as audio being routed from the speaker.
The problem is no sound comes out of the external DAC, although it is routed away from the speaker. Basically, it is the same behavior after flashing the patch as it is in the Sense ROMs, but just no audio coming from the DAC.
I believe the issue is something missing from the Services.jar part of the framework. I am now in over my head.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk 2

So on GPE roms audio works and you get output on the DAC, Sense you get stepping but no output, and AOSP stepping with patch but no output
Get the app Sound About from store and try on patched AOSP and report back plz

Any update, im on liquid smooth and may flash back to gpe rom.

USB DACs work on CM11. The issue is that the phone doesn't automatically route all sound to the DAC like the stock ROM does.
It is there and working, but you wouldn't know it since the phone won't play sound through it. It is probably the same case with many other ROMs.

Dunno. Going to have to talk to an expert for that.

I'm willing to do a bit of coding work to help out if needed, GPE roms are not bad at all just shouldn't be the only roms that offer usb audio.

We don't have many devs, and it is because of a few reasons.
1. Verizon took their sweet damn time to release the M7. They were almost 6 months late to the party.
2. Verizon blocked bootloader unlocks on day 1. This made it impossible to develop anything until s-off was achieved. So, this essentially added another month to the release date.
3. There aren't many people with an m7vzw. This is related to #1.

Does lunar kernel Support USB audio

not specifically in features, i doubt the functionality was intentionally left out though.. elemental might and there are some kernel on the international boards that do.. IMO if sound is truly important to you, switch back to sense- im enjoying aptx Bluetooth and Zero Infinitys godly audio and cant say im missing out on anything AOSP except for inferior quick settings (viper ROM has all the themeing you'll ever need
