-=ThinkMeUP Tank=- LiveWalls on 1.6! Lets figure it out!

Hey guys, well i was sitting here thinking about how much i could actually use the live wallpapers on my phone. I mean i am tired of using the newer android just to have the far and few features that are in it, to sacrifice SOOOOO much.
Am i alone? or Do you people wanna change this too?
I don't know where to start, i just realized that it hasn't been done, i mean we have ported it so far to the g1, and the run AWESOME when optimized.
Lets work on it people!!

It's not possible.

thats called getting shot down haha

Wow it's called [Think Tank].. you might get flamed for that mistake...
Other than that, this thread is perfect! Keep it up!

Wow thanks for the help there from mr 65 posts.
Think its a good idea but would need to have live wallpapers off of a 1.6 rom, i suspect this is possible with the right lib files etc.Any idea what files the live wallpapers use?
And btw they once said it wasnt possible to fly and whos laughing now

lets do it,
Okay this is not Impossible i'd say, because we do have a working 3d cube live wallpaper running on donut i believe So, id say we could make this work somehow just dont shoot it all down instantly guys.

Wow thanks for proving that posts count != intelligence.
Note: If you have 13337 posts it doesn't mean you've got huge knowledge about Android.

Maybe you should have included a reason as to why you think it's not possible, and you wouldn't have gotten pounced on like that.

Honestly? This is most certainly *possible*, just silly. In my opinion, it makes a LOT more sense to work on fixing everything broken in 2.1 than to port 2.1 stuff back to what is effectively an obsolete version of android.
We're not *that* far off from a fully working version of 2.1 on Dream. In fact, the only thing I'm aware of are the GPU drivers. Maybe we just want to revert some of 2.1 to 1.6 to get those components working.

Has anyone tried to reverse engineer the video drivers from 1.6 and port it to 2.1?

Well we are SUPPOSED to get an official 2.x ROM for the G1, so I don't think anyone's going to jump on that idea :/

MeeGo port?

http://www.intomobile.com/2010/09/27/nexus-one-meego-port/
any chance of this happening for our hero's? looks pretty cool to me.

+1 This is way cool... There was a similiar post over in the themes section not long ago. I can't find it now but the OP was trying to find a theme that looked very close to this? Since this is a rom this is the place to ask!

i hope we can make this happen, nokia's have a solid OS.

I would like this on our hero

the processor wouldn't be an issue at all... it's other things like the gpu, touchscreen, buttons, camera, etc. that would make it difficult.

Nah, I'm pretty sure I read once when there were talks about porting FroYo or something to our phone, the only real candidate was the MyTouch Slide because it had the same CPU tables or something as our phone. Without the same CPU tables (w/e it was), the port was a lot more difficult. But yes, if we did get the cpu to work right, the rest would be difficult.

They should Port this two...

[Thinktank] Developing some AOSP roms!

I'm surprised that there haven't been any AOSP roms yet. Sense uses up a lot of ram and memory, AOSP roms would definitely make this phone beastlier.
Besides noxtel and teamsilence, do we even have any other developers? Pretty sad because this is such a good device.

All good. Now, that I see that you're from twin cities... how's your data connection? Mine drops off every few minutes, tower hand-off issue? Only drops for a second or two but makes streaming music VERY annoying.
Sorry to go off-topic here.

lmao I love when people use LMGTFY... by the way if you didnt figure out what it was its just stock style android like what would come on the G1, G2, or Nexus phone's, people call it AOSP or Vanilla Android... I call it AOSP but it doesn't truly make sense because thats the project as a whole...
btw if you just looking for a stock AOSP rom I ported it for my mt4g :/ I just did it for my personal use so I added the custom things that I like but I don't really have the time to trouble shoot it or add other peoples custom things to it.... but if you want it let me know and Ill shoot it over

I don't really ever lose my H when it would ever really annoy me.. like I don't get it at home, but I have wifi there...and I don't get it on like one road on my way to work which sucks because I stream pandora to my radio in my car...but other than that I am really satisfied, but that might be simply because I am not a real POWER user...well I am I guess.. but maybe then its just because I came from an unlocked iphone 2g...so lets just say a laggy "H" is still a FAR better connection than edge...hahah

I didin't really know what AOSP was cept an acronym for android open source project...but now that you have explained to me that it is just anothe way of referring to vanilla builds or whatever, that makes a lot more sense to me.... I don't think I am looking or an AOSP though... cuz I like the friendstream widget, and the news widget...cuz it vastly entertains me to browse status updates and what not from a home screen rather then having to go to a site or open an application...or pay for a widget that mirrors a widget I have for free... naawww mean?????

lmao im not gonna lie... i always preferred sense... that is until 2.2... that really stepped it up in my opinion, when I used my nexus one I always said it would be great if we could mash the 2... For example I like the aosp gallery but like the sense widgets (I guess I'm just a sucker for animations lol)... I built an aosp rom for myself a few weeks back but missed sense so went back to work on my tmo sense... now that I changed my status icons, changed recent apps in the status bar to be like the vibrants status bar and and changed the myfav's quick launch button changed I think I'm finally content in keeping it this way... or at least for the rest of the day lmao

I think Google has dropped the ball with Android by not requiring phone manufacturers to enable their hardware to run strictly vanilla Android without any difficulty. If Google had done that, every phone which has the basic hardware for a specific version of Android would have it now. Open Source Android and Linux is a farce because manufacturers have made them essentially closed source due to not releasing the source code for their drivers, etc. May as well have an iPhone.

At least the iPhone is less frustrating because it is a closed system that can't be modified except by Apps and, even then, only those which comply with Apple's requirements unless the phone is jailbroken. I've got an iPod Touch 2nd generation, jailbroken, which I still use and enjoy using but I highly doubt I will still be using the G2X for as long.

A iPhone ?
You know what's nice with android phones ? You want a overclocked kernel, I can make you one. You want good battery life, I can make something out for you. You want your favourite theme, download it. You want to install a incompatible OS update, give thanks to your devs and they'll make it compatible for you . You want a ROM with nice flames when it boots, then give thanks to your favourite ROM cooker out there.

That's just silly. To, as you say, "use it for what it's for" would include modifying the device in any manner that pleases you. So installing an iOS look alike on an android phone is one of the many reasons people purchase android driven products. If you prefer that there are limits to what should be done with another person's device then perhaps it is you that should be looking at getting an iPhone.
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

I totally agree with 1bad. To each their own...

Its just my opinion of how I would prefer my phone to look...I've used MIUI before and I liked it a lot.....but SMARTISAN just seems a bit more deviated from the "Android" look and its not even completely a copy of iOS....and I wouldn't waste money on an iPhone....I would just get a Find 5 or some other high-end phone if I could (I can't but I still like my A2 a lot)
