Froyo Sense porting

Hey guys, today i was fooling around in the forums and found this thread about a froyo sense rom for the g1 based on a dump for the wildfire. is only a work in progress but maybe the dev comunnity can get together and help each other out??
I know there is quite a few people busy trying to get the s-off working right now but I think you should also look into this since that is what a lot of us are waiting for, a froyo rom with sense on it. right?
here is the thread, there is a link to a rom that the OP put together.

[Q] Got my Desire HD (with questions)

Well I finally bought a Desire HD and it's a great phone. I have done allot of things with it but it felt like I wanted more. Then I found this website and found out about rooting a phone. I hope to learn allot here.
My question: Can please someone give me all the sticky's or threads for learning everything I need to learn about rooting before I actually do it myself?
Thank you in advance.

Hi, welcome to XDA community.
It seems that you've come to the right place for rooting and flashing custom roms. All the basic information regarding rooting, downgrading can be found in the 1st sticky post in Desire HD Android Development section here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079108
Please do read them thoroughly and search for other threads for any questions or problems encountered involving rooting your phone.
Please do your best and good luck.

Can't I just use gingerbreak or doesn't it work on a desire HD?

It depends on what base you're on. The latest base that can be rooted gingerbreak is 2.36. Any higher base is not possible to root, for now.

Yep, downgrade is achievable latest on 2.37.762.2 and later version. Stock 2.42 and above will have to wait.

I received a body protecter recently and it says to apply with liquid soap and water!?
.... I haven't got round to putting it on yet. Can you tell me if i should avoid this method. - did your device become water damaged this way?
Sent from my Desire HD

sure as hell it messed up mine one, that liquid got under the digitalizer and soaked my lcd, it did work but it looked like real liquid display(then i got pissed off and took mine apart and found it really hard to remove lcd from housing since it was glued all over the place and i got even more pissed of and went on it like a terminator, then spent 200 bucks in service shop so they would replace it badly(i have two small dirt dots under the screen)) lol search around and you'll find a few other guys with same problem, you can do it nicely even without water trust me **** off that liquid solution you don't want my story to happen

Thanks for the heads up! Appreciate it!

[Q] HTC Desire Ice Cream Sandwich ROM

Is it possible that ICS will get to the normal HTC Desire AMOLED as a ROM? It would've been nice if it happened! I'd love to if someone made a ROM for the normal desire AMOLED with stock HBOOT and no bugs plus an OTA update URL! . It would've made my year and christmas! So what do you think? Do you think that the big developers will try to do this, or do you think they will just forget the desire and be lazy and mean and only support new phones? Please answer!

I guess only time will tell.

Hi,
I see you posted two threads one barely less senseless than the other. I was wondering what have you been smoking lately coz I want some of that too?

Yay. I want the ice cream and all de other puddings on ma fone. HTC will be do that soon me think. Manager of HTC shop and head of HTC fan boy club say its possible if dev manage to fix issues with loose buttons the screen can take the measure but backwards engineering will be possible to make it happen. 3 cheers for devs and xda and happy fun for everyone who likes chocolate cake in their fones
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

In all due respect. After reviewing all your posts, all 6 of them. I feel it necessary to say, stop demanding answers or roms from devs and gain some basic knowledge about android and how big companies such as HTC operate (hint: you bought the phone, it's now obsolete, no they don't care about you.) Be thankful we have such intelligent and generous devs who keep the desire alive. They have no obligation to create any rom or answer any question even if their rom broke your phone. I'm not saying you are stupid or disrespectful simply you should think before posting.

I have to say I never thought there'd be an industry in which Apple was the flag-holder for long-term device support. All the Android device manufacturers suck, really... I'd be quite surprised to get ICS on my Atrix, let alone my Desire

The question is not when but if Desire can handle ICS without problems.
On the other hand I wonder if HTC will make Sense for ICS. Time will tell.

Looking at all his nonsensical threads, I am pretty sure even that will not do.

You know that a simple question would put an end to such threads, and instead of acting so tough and all-knowing you could actually help...
But going back to our sheep, cm8 was supposed to be Android 3.0 which was dropped ( because it is meant for tablets only) .
The new CyanogenMod, cm9, will be android 4.0 which will be released, maybe or maybe not, in the next 2-3 months if we are lucky. As you might of heard, you need good hardware to run Ice Cream Sandwich, which Wildfire does not have.

Lol why would you want to wait for that i mean, some devs are already working on ICS

News from HTC

Hello guys. Today I sent HTC a message and I asked will our device get offical Sense 3.5 update. I asked it because HTC Explorer has offical 3.5 support and it's specs are similar to our phone.
Here is what they wrote:
Dear Dario Radečić,
Thank you for contacting HTC.
With regards to your enquiry,
Unfortunately, Your device (Wildfire S) does not support official Sense 3.5.
Wildfire S with android 2.3.5 and sense 2.1 and cannot update more.
HTC Explorer could be upgrade to sense 3.5.
Thank you for your care.
If you have any other inquiries, don’t hesitate to contact us again.

Yeah, well, they don't know about the power of porting! They have no idea about the great devs we have! Together we are the ultimate devs! (aside from those stuck up trolls, and sometimes, noobs, no offense)
Sent from Bad-Wolf's TARDIS.

That is true, we got great devs. And if our devs are having problems with with porting ics to WFS, they should ask this user, bcos he can definitly help them. He ported ics to LG-GT540 which have 600 MHz CPU, Adreno200 and 160 mb of ram. HWA, wifi, gps, data, camera, audio, everything is working on his ROM. I know bcos that LG was my previous phone

Sense 3.5 is already ported on our phone.

Well That's Life... But it's Kinda frustrating that we have this small yet powerful device they dont even want to update sense...

Yes.. they could port at least Sense 3.0 if not 3.5

Sad but not so sad. I'm already overjoyed with my current ROM from one of our great developers here.

What ROM is it?

But hopefully we could get update to ANDROID 5.0 Jellybean... not asking for impossible but i wont lose hope...
I too enjoy a ROM create from here.. Better than the StOCK..

This isn't surprising. We all know that we can't rely on corporations to do anything just for customer satisfaction. If it's hard, it's expensive and thus not worth doing.

hahaha ya right...

just wait for htc to launch its official updates for explorer and leave the rest on our xda folks to make it unofficial and launch it for our very own wildfire s

We will have new phones and long forget the wildfire s by the time HTC makes an official update....IF they make an official update
