Cyanogen 3.9.6 straightforward sapphire port [32B]

Details here:
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-for-sapphire-magic-tested-on-vodafone-magic/
This is a very straightforward port of Cyanogen's awesome 3.9.6 ROM to run on the HTC Sapphire / Magic (tested on the Vodafone Magic).
Apply as any other update.zip (via modified recovery image).
It's FAST!

is this for 32A?

cant u read?????????????????? VODAFONE = 32B

Paul,
What did you change to get Compcache working? I'm already running 3.9.5 on my 32B and don't really want to reflash just for the sake of being able to push a couple of modified files
Cheers

So this is with cyno 3.9.5 kernel right?

i think i can read better than you

What's the difference between this port and the jerpelea (or something) port?

isnt this the same as jerpleas port?

Same as Jerpelas and all the other 'ports' that use the trick I found of renaming init.trout.rc in boot.img to init.sapphire.rc.
I've asked a couple of the devs to include this file by default to avoid the plethora of threads here that are just dream roms which pretty much anyone can get running in a couple of minutes.
At the moment the 'real' development work is mainly in the dream forum, lucky for 32b owners they run perfectly 32A, wait for the ports
Waiting for the Drizzy/JAC new hero port tonight - it's meant to be damn fast,and they think they can get it to 'cupcake' speeds

re: posts above...
Correct, it's using Cyanogen's kernel (hence compcache functions correctly).
Correct, it's for 32B.
Correct, it's using a tweaked boot.img with a renamed RC.
I think it's a valid post because not everyone has the ability / time / inclination to download the ROM, extract the boot.img, rename the file, rebuild the boot.img and then resign the resulting zip.
As always, I created this for my own use and thought i'd share!
I also have asked Cyanogen (via Twitter) to include a sapphire.rc in future revisions. Here's hoping!

I think that with this ROM, libwebcore.so from CM3.6.8.1 and the Noverca Audio*.csv files, I can actually use my Magic for what it's supposed to be used for!
Until tomorrow at least

Splendid! Thanks so much. Do you plan on continuing support of Cyan roms?

Thanks Modaco,
all the apps and the cache, to ext3 partition. Good rom. Wifi runs ok , it goes so fast. For me, the most important advantage, the apps and the cache, to sd!.
Thanks guy

compcache is working, wifi wont start.
I'm pretty sure that jerpelea had to get a different wlan.ko for it to work on his.

This just keeps looping on the Android splash screen. Is it because I am using Amon_Ra's 1.2 recovery???

I am using 1.2 and had no troubles.
Just WiFi wont start.
I have tried replacing it with the wlan.ko from jerpelea's rom.
It doesnt like it.

I dont get it! I had similar problems with newer Cyanogen build than what I am on. Also the QTek rom does the same.
It seems to me that any ported ROMs which all you supposedly need to do is run 'update.zip' fail with a boot loop for me.
I don't know why it's only with ported ROMs though..... It's driving me mad!!!

[DEVS]T-mobile Pulse/ system dump... + more later...

As you all know my Desktop HD was formatted so Im still recovering what I can, but ill be posting some system dumps you have never seen here....
so please enjoy cooking some ROMS!

Ill post some more dumps soon, im just trying to recover my sh*t (request are welcome, ill see what I got and post if I have it)
I dont have all boot.img's, recovery.img's and so forth but what I get ill be sure to release:
Blur/system only
Pulse/system only

reserved! .......

Thanks man!

Just out of curiosity, when you have system images but not the boot images or recovery images... what can you do with the system images and what do they include i.e. apps, widgets, framework, etc? I'm thinking of learning on how to cook and develop roms. Unfortunately my degree is in networking, so I do have some learning to do.

THX!
good job,Drizzy!
waiting for your full blur ROM 4 G1!

yeah i need it ！

Isint this useless for rom making without the boot.img? I'm no rom dev...but isin't it?

Any details on custom frameworks that Motorola uses, if any? I'd like to get my hands on the kernel source the Cliq uses as well.

sweeet. Cooking it now.

just curious but is this based off 1.6?

One tiny look at the build props would have told you that it's based on cupcake.

"should" not be since Blur is not a hero based rom. is still 1.5 based.
so technically, led's wifi and BT should work, but, it's from motorola.. so...
gonna have to wait till someone brings it to life

let them cook the rom before you start asking questions like that.

I'd think a ROM based from a Motorola phone would be even less compatible than Hero..
Anyway, I'd rather have a Blur/AOSP mix rather than a Blur/Hero mix.

[ROM] [MT3G LE,1.2] KiNgxKxROM Sense Hybrid v2.3 ported

Using dsixda's rom kitchen and with some trial and error with a few other roms I ran into some luck with KiNgxKxROM Sense Hybrid v2.3.
It's a bit of a pain to get past the setup screen (or at least for me) so you just have to have some patience.
What doesn't work:
Wi-Fi (I need someone with some experience to help with that if you don't mind)
Camera
Anything else that we might discover
What this does have:
It should have everything that the original rom has
Bluetooth works
Multitouch browser
Anything else that we might discover
Requirements
A rooted MyTouch 1.2 device (duh!)
SDCARD with fat/swap/ext3 partition (not sure if 2 or 4 works... haven't tested. Let me know)
A complete wipe (dalvik-cache, data, ext partiton)
A little patience.
I had it freeze up a couple of times on me so this is far from perfect but it might be a start to someone that wants to rip it apart and try it for themselves, upload it and I'll update the link for a more perfected version.
And please don't ask:
[Q] "Why are you posting a Cupcake 1.5 rom up when we're expecting Eclair at anytime now?"
[A] Because it just so happened to work. Okay?
But therein may lay the problem with the stability. A 1.6 kernel with a 1.5 rom would very likely tend to cause some issues... but I don't think it's half bad since it's my first ported rom.
So if any mouth-breathers wants to get all hyper about this not being perfect release I'll invite you to give it a shot. I intend on experimenting with more to see what I can get to work. In the meantime, this is a start I think.
I'm hoping that someone can help me figure out the wifi and camera issues so that we can have this closer to completion. Other than those I think this is pretty much finished. Unless someone discovers something that I didn't with my entire 15 minutes of playing around with it.

Most Hero roms are pretty laggy. You have to enable swap to get it to smooth out. I'm playing with a few more right now. I'm trying to find a decent 1.6 and 2.1 Hero roms that work.

alright i enable swap its some wat smoother but still alittle buggy i think its because of the kernel

What did you do for the wifi to work?

i flashed the deport 1.0 from here (http://twistedumbrella.slackdev.com/Deport-1.0.zip)

Downloading now...

if u can edit it to get the touchscreen to work for the mytouch le it would be great!!!!

visualkei94 said:

Okay... the reason why the touchscreen doesn't work is because there is a boot.img in that zip file. Inside the boot.img is the kernel which allows the wlan.ko for the wi-fi to operate. Even if I was to just use those files (that is without the boot.img) it still more than likely won't work. It would likely bare the same results. Does your bluetooth work still?

yup works 100% percent ill try to edit the port so the touchscreen works, if i have any sucess ill tell u

Thanks. Good luck. I'm busy working on other roms. I have a total of eight to test out finished.

I love Sense UI, so this ROM is awesome. The camera and wifi working would be a plus, but it's still pretty solid. Thanks Binary 100100!

I have another one that I'm working the kinks out with. It's the Eris rom ported. Camera works, bluetooth doesn't. It's always something isn't it? LOL. But it's a good start.

Your problem is that the Deport file is a kernel. So you are flashing a non working kernel over our working kernel. Thats why there is no touch. To get the wifi working you gota push a wlan file from another rom.. but then it normaly takes out bluetooth.
EDIT- Ooops.. Its a 1.5 rom.. Think Ill say NEY lol

[Q] NP Evo Dialer, Fix For Latest Rom 3.14.405.2

Hi Guys,
This dialer skin was working on my last rom which was 1.66 but in this new on the dialer itself works fine with numbers etc..
But once you dial out the keys are all jumbled and out of place and the Keypad and Endcall keys are overlapping stuff.
Does anyone know how to fix it.

You can solve your problem with this link, there are two cab files for hd2, one for stock rom, the other one for custom rom.
First uninstall yours and then install the other one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=661465&highlight=Evo+Dialer

sorry i cant help you op but i had the same issues with diniks dialer. it looked nasty.....i also had some apps that wouldnt install or work correctly with the new rom. some have said it could be to do with the new version of .net thats pre-installed on the update. needless to say, i've gone back to the older rom (that i didnt even have any issues with anyway) and everythings sweet again.........

Thanks a bunch that did the trick, appreciate it!

If there's a U.S. version download that one & you should be ok on the new rom.

This is not recommended for the ave everday user/know nothing/no time to fudge with my phone crowd...
that being said, now for the fun stuff
i take no credit for any of this other than typing(incdoes leaked most of these port bases). i am just posting links to roms i found in inc forum with the instructions for porting to evo from incs blog. just trying to initiate some more rom development. i am still trying to decide which i will be working on...but this is open source so i just put it here for evo users/devs to view and get porting

HOW TO PORT INC ROM TO EVO
-excerpt from incdoes blog-
Okay, to run an INC ROM on your EVO would be simple. There will be a few broken 'stuff' e.g. bt, wifi etc... but easy fixes!
First you will need the INC ROM you desire to run on your EVO. Now, if its an "INC Sense ROM" you will need a "EVO Sense Kernel" and if it's an AOSP ROM then you will need a AOSP kernel.
Now there will be a few things you will need to replace on the INC ROM to make it run on your EVO:
~We are going to use a sense 2.2 rom as an example~
"so grab these files from any EVO sense ROM, preferable stock 2.2 EVO"
- boot.img (for your phone to bootup)
- system/usr (for buttons)
- system/lib/hw (for lights)
- system/lib/modules (for wifi)
- system/etc/vold.stab (for sdcard readable)
- build.prop (for market and LED's fix)
please note: some prop files include different edits that can break market/data/network/LED's... but then again, easy fixes!
Now you have an INC Sense ROM and 'all the files listed above pulled from an EVO Sense rom, you will have to add/replace the files pulled from the EVO ROM into the INC ROM, sign the .zip and flash (via recovery).
Should/will bootup if its based on the same firmware i.e. 2.2 INC ROM and 2.2 EVO ROM.
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for you bricking your wife's/son's/boss's/aunt's/grandpa's/girlfriend's/fiance's/mother's/etc....evo
good porting

happy flashing

Wonder if this process can be used to port nexus roms?
Probly a couple other things needed.

I had a idea, the Incredible version of the normal LiquidE ROM (not the sense hybrid) seems to have incoming calls working unlike our Evo version. What if we tried porting it using this method, anyone think that might work?

Edit: I realized the boot.img would be for a sense rom, and nexus is aosp. So i can rip the boot.img from cyanogen out and stick it in the nexus rom and it'll purr?
Or... What?

OHHH I wish I had patients!! Quite the opposite actually.....just a really busy life.....but I may try to start tonight anyway .

So im flashing a nexus rom right now, that i switched out all the stuff + threw in a cyanogen kernel.
If this thing bricks...
___________
UPDATE: It booted up, but it doesnt register any touch on the touch screen. LOL.
Hmmm maybe if.. Any ideas guys? I switch some other stuff around too. Maybe i can figure this out...
UPDATE: I flashed netarchy universal kernel and now the touch works, i cant get any signal, i dunno what stuff needs to be switch out from GSM to CDMA.
Wifi WORKS! I dont have a keyboard for some reason, so i cant enter my password to test it but it looks to be fine. And since i have no internet connection i cant get astro to install one from my SD haha.

I flashed over sky raider 3.3 final and every thing is perfect. Theres a uncommon sense patch which I also ported because I remember reading that on the hd Rom the ego didn't like the 4 signal bars. Only thing not exactly right is the camera. It doesn't have the capture button but I can take pics by holding a finger on the screen. Video is a no go due to not having the nature button. This Rom is the smoothest I've used and I'm a flash a holic so I've used them all.

So if I use the flash patch do I need to do any of the other stuff listed in the op(replacing files)?

Sweet Magnus, may have to get back to you details of what i find wrong. But i got a porject due next week for school. I have to record us BMXing this weekend. Then make an edit. If i get that sweet alone time in the eveing, i'll be sure happy to port all three and give findings.
