Well, it'd make more sense to post this in Tattoo and Hero forums, wouldn't it? These kernels have nothing to do with the Dream.

I would think this could be helpful here - lots of Hero ports, question is more about proprietary addon code than kernel I think though. Wish we could get Hero BT on G1....

ROM builder for Sapphire?

Now that Haykuro is gone we need someone else to step up.... i don't have my Magic yet but it is being released here in 2wks....
I have been using Dudeoflife's rom on my G1 for a few weeks now and it rocks....
here is a statement he made today:
The dude's g1 builds will exist as long as he has a g1.
If dude ever gets his own magic (sigh....) he'll make roms for both.
If haykuro is really done...the dude may continue his work on hero...using this unwatermarked rosie image.
Can we start a collection for a magic for him?
Any takers?
I would like to learn how to develop rom' s by my own.
But I don' t know how to start.
Would say my linux skills are not bad, but as I said I don' t know how to start.
If any developer will give me some hint' s I will start cooking roms
why don't you give Dude a PM and see where he learnt..... it's over my head- i am a linux noob... theming i can do though.....
Anyone know how big the difference is between the magic and the g1?
Looking at the 2 ion roms that Haykuro made, it seems that only difference is the boot.img. So it might "just" be a case of making a new kernel for the magic rom.

Port new rom to 32a magic....

looks like there is a new update for hero phones...can it be ported for 32a boards?
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...018/02-09-1-5-modaco-custom-hero-rom-is-here/
I don't understand what's so special about this ROM.
I was reading the description and among all there's one application (that you can get it apart of this ROM) and that's it..
I know who can port it, I don't but, why you want it so much?
Is this the update that made hero smoother?
You linked to a ROM that has nothing to do with hero update.
Invalid link source.
That doesn't have much to do with the described topic.
I was willing to provide some assistance, however - I was misled.
Thanks, but no thanks.

[KITCHEN] Basic ROM kitchen for aspiring Magic cooks [PC/MAC]

Hi guys,
Over at the HTC Hero forum I have been developing a kitchen to help ordinary people learn how to build their own ROM. It allows you to do basic things such as rooting a shipped ROM, adding apps2sd, modifying the task killer memory threshold, etc.
The appropriate settings are now in place to make it work for the Magic.
Here is the link to the kitchen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Before you flash your new custom ROM made from this kitchen, please make a Nandroid backup first of your existing ROM!
Thank you, and enjoy!
Just a question - is there a Wiki page which lists all the shipped ROMs available for the Magic? I couldn't find any on my own. I only found the ones at the htc.com site.
...
Hi man, i just want to thank you for your kitchen, i dont know a answer to your question
but i want to reserve this post,
my plan is to make a short instruction on how to port a rom from hero, using your kitchen... (hope its ok with you)
not a full how to, but som guidence... cause i am still learning and still making many misstakes...
But i am gonna try to make my best.
I DONT HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT NOW... LATER.

That's a good idea, and that also gives me another idea for the kitchen.
Usually when we port a ROM from another device, we just replace the other device's boot.img-kernel with our own device's boot.img-kernel. Although there may be issues with driver incompatibility, this is the general way to get the ROM booting. (Also you have to make sure you use the correct base address when using mkbootimg)
Wow
sorry it's off topic but damn good to see dsixda over here on android. I remember your roms from my diamond and elfin. Now i think a nexus one is my next device if you're cooking for em lol. As for the kitchen i think this is an amazing idea to get some more chefs in the game.

Hey man, I remember you ;-) The kitchen is working for Nexus One. However, I'm not cooking ROMs this time because public ROMs are too much work when you want to satisfy hundreds of people at once The kitchen will take the load off the cooks and also provide an enjoyable learning experience for people who want to customize a ROM the way they like it. We already have someone who has made a public ROM from this kitchen, and hopefully there will be more!
I am still looking for the downloadable shipped rom. hopefully it would be found soon. i looked on the htc site but i guess i am still lost. but thanks again for something great.
Sounds like fun. I'll try it out on myTouch 1.2

I would like to reserve this post for compatibility the new MyTouchLE/Fender.
If this can work for this phone there will be alot of happy people out there
thanks
Update 4/16 after several attempts with different shipped and custom roms i have finally gotten one to boot with touch input, which has been one of the biggest hurdles for this phone. Problem is niether of the roms i have will connect to T-Mobile or wifi. Any ideas?
Testing this out now to see what I come up with thanks for the link to the rom.

You can try this as well:
http://www.htc.com/www/support/magic.html
so with this one should be able to build roms from any rom to try make it work on your phone?

As long as they are Magic ROMs, then yes they should work.
ok so the base has to be magic for it to work, so in total it is to maske it easier to modify roms to your liking? no porting ect?

Yes you need a Magic ROM as your base. In theory it should work with any Magic ROM, but I'm not 100% familiar with all the variants of the HTC Magic so maybe there are incompatibilities?
I'll be working on porting ROMs later in the day.. I have to try the new porting scripts on my Hero first.
ok, i will give it a go when we can try porting a bit more fun working with android 2.1
i just noticed a problem with the T-Mobile myTouch 3G ROMs, as my script only looks for "HTC Magic" in the build.prop and not T-Mobile myTouch 3G... I'll get to fixing that soon. I'll check for "sapphire" instead, which is more generic.
Ok I have put up an update to the kitchen, version 0.24. This one should recognize all ROMs from all variants of the HTC Magic (e.g. T-Mobile myTouch 3G).
Also another option has been added, which will allow you to port a ROM from another Android device to your Magic (it will boot up but you may have to make some changes to get everything working properly, such as drivers). Has been tested on an HTC Hero.

ROMS from MT3G or G1 forum?

Hi, been scanning the 'general' threads for a while, but didn't see an answer for this (maybe because it's obvious, idk )
Anyway, should a MT3G 1.0 owner (first gen MT3G) flash ROMS from the MT3G forum or the G1 forum? I know it has to be a ROM for 32b, but beyond that - is there any advantage/disadvantage? Or are all ROMS for the first gen MT and the G1 the same?
I've been flashing from G1 forums, and have been happy with the roms, but am just wondering if I should be taking them from the MT3G forum, i.e. if there's any difference/benefit...still a noob, and trying to figure things out. Thanks for any insight!
Honestly the Sapphire forum was around long before the MT3G. I see a lot of people in the G1 forum making their roms compatible with G1/32B (32B Means mytouch3g) So go there if you can. Check out cyan 2.1!

99% of ROMs for the G1 is compatible with the original mytouch. Also sapphire ROMs/32B Magic ROMs are compatible also.
If you want an Android 2.1 ROM that has a great dev and is fully working then check out the latest Cyanogen. The ROMs title is in my sig.
Thanks guys for the tips. I figured as much, about the g1 and original mytouch roms being good for both devices, but just wanted to put it out there out of curiosity. And thanks for the cyanogen tip too - thinking about trying it, but tbh I'm addicted to sense ui. I just think it looks so much nicer than stock android, so I've been sticking to sense roms only...but sounds like cyanogen is the stock rom to go with if I change my mind!

[Q] Want to learn to Port ROMs from Vibrant to the SGS4G!

The Rom that i would like to learn to port is the Rom from Neobuddy, which is an ICS port to the vibrant! Can I get a Dev, or two or three to help me to learn to do this please? (RaverX3X, Whitehawkx, Krylon.......The Super Devs! lol)
Thank you in advance!
Eric, and Thomas....
Thank you for the links! I am workin now LOL
Found this link today as well...

They're not going to use their time to teach you how to port if you don't already know the basics, they're all working on their own projects. My advice would be to learn how to do it yourself using Google. There are plenty of ROM porting guides out there, but porting ICS to this phone might be a little out of your league for now.
Wouldnt it be easier to port from an epic 4g aswell ?? i think its a more similar phone id start by just looking at any piece of info on porting thats out there
Check out this link and google the hell out of porting and find many guides like this one.. This one is well written from what i have read. http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/porting-android
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
This will help you with porting a vibrant ROM to the SGS4G, but I don't think it will be useful for ICS. From what I have read, we don't have a true ICS ROM (support) yet.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1099454&highlight=porting
Does the epic 4g have the 16gb internel sdcard like Cappy and Vibrant? Or is it formatted like the SGS4G and use the externel sdcard?
Im pretty sure its the closest thing to a SGS4g right now.. also for porting vibrant this was posted in our forums a long long time ago.. i don't think anyone has successfully used it yet.
