[MOD/TOOL] Dual Boot between ROMS - G1 Android Development

For those of you who have not seen this, it is now possible to dual boot between roms on android! (HTC Dream (g1) is supported!)
Check out the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9345833#post9345833

Damn!
Just downloading, if this works it will be epic...

good finding
will definitely try it

wait, but will this work for roms that need different partitions? like a Sense ROM vs. a Froyo ROM?

It's currently having a few teething issues which I'm helping Uncorrupted out with along with a few others. In theory this should be able to flash from donut to froyo and all inbetween and i'll be testing further so keep your eyes peeled for updates from me

Will this work with the new 2708 enabled kernels and the new radio/hboot that goes along with it?

has anyone tried it?does it really work?

Been helping with providing info to get it working, it's not done yet but Uncorrupted said he will have a fix hopefully when he wakes up.
As soon as it hit's I'll test and post results.

Any progress?

Best Rosie ROM for Magic?

Hi,
I am new to Android, and I was very impressed with the videos which show the Rosie UI. Which is the best (fastest) ROM currently using Rosie which can be flashed on the Magic?
TIA.
The Qteknology ones seems to be the fastest so far.
Tho as with all the Hero roms at the mo people seem to be having a few problems. Like a delay in receiving texts or even not receiving them at all! There is also sometimes a delay in the phone ringing when a call comes in.
Thanks for the fast reply, Roy. I see in another thread that I there will be an official ROM in October, so I will wait 'till then.
Which other ROM would you recommend for now? At the moment I am running the daldroid official HTC ROM, since the one preinstalled by the operator in my country disables the Android Market.
What official Rom in october? Do you mean Donut?
That is just going to be a sort of update from cupcake which is used on the standard stock roms right now. The devs on here are alredy playing with the some of the code from donut and have been taking stuff from it and putting it in their own roms.
If you have flashed your phone with another rom then it is unlikely you will receive this official update.
As you can see from my sig I'm still using one of the Cyanogen roms, I'm keeping an eye on the Qteknology Hero one though as it is pretty fast and works nicely. Just needs a few bugs ironed out.

Yep, that's what I read. Is the 32A platform the one with 288MB?

I'm pretty sure some kind soul will dump the ROM on here and the excellent devs will be able to do something with it
The ROM would be meant for Magics so the bugs/issues that we are seeing will most probably be solved with that.

[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?

"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.

Dude stop trolling. You busted this 16 year old kids chops about "whats different about this ROM then the 1000 others on xda." Well now he's merged two ROMs into 1, so stfu. Stay in the thread of your lame ass Hero ROM and stop busting on others. Maybe you could be using the time to get Bluetooth working and innovating some of your ROMs instead of busting those who are at least ATTEMPTING to get things done. You haven't even updated your ROM in OVER 2 weeks! Your ROM is just a damn rip off of everything JAC's already done. And if the dude ever does get it to work, I bet you'll be the first asshole to rip his work with no credit(or pull some BS "optimization" and claim it "new and improved").
No one is forcing you to use this ROM. And just because you make a ROM doesn't mean you run **** on XDA. Hop off the dude's nuts...

Why don't you release your Eclair Hero? Oh wait, that's right, it is watermarked and Maxisma hasn't finished removing those, while you sit around waiting for him to do the real development. Oh, I am so sorry, isn't that supposed to be the line you use when ripping on everyone else?

hey klick. you think your the best now? all you do is boast how drunk you get on twitter and bag on other peoples roms. just cause you got bagged on when you first started making roms doesnt mean you should do the same to tmack. your roms are too slow. face it, theres no more hype for your roms anymore.
So know that we all have an understanding that his ROM's are slow, can we get back on topic? I want to see where this ROM goes, not wonder where the thread disappeared to.

Instead of busting his chops, consider that he's using Hero as a learning curve. Do you expect a new dev to "learn" using something even the more experienced dev's haven't even touched yet? No. When the possibility for Donut or Eclair Hero ROMs emerge, I'll expect that he'll be able to take the knowledge he knows and use it to work on that.
As for this ROM I haven't found it to be slow at all. As speed goes, I find it to be on par with that "Flash This Hero" ROM (its first version anyway). It feels less sluggish than SenseHERO to me as well. The only Hero ROM I've found to have been noticeably faster than others would have been Drizzy's Final Hero and the (earlier) versions based off of it maintained by Maxima.
Good job.
without going into the merit of which Hero rom is best, I find that the current version of KiNgxKxROM Sense Hybrid Version 2.3 to be the fastest Hero rom currently available.
Having said that, I still encourage all developers and appreciate the work that they do to keep our G1s alive.
The people in this thread are just begging for it to be closed.
Anyone flash this yet and have a report on how it runs? I will probably give it a whirl later in the day. Always fun to test for a new dev, been my experience that some are true diamonds in the rough, hoping for the best!

Chances of Eclair on 32A (MT3G LE Fender)?

I've tried KiNgxKxlick-AOSP21-v161_signed.zip with the 32A patch and all. It does boot but no touch screen functionality.
What's the chances of being able to get eclair working on the device as defined in my signature?

The chances of 2.1 on Fender are excellent given that T-Mobile announced it would be pushing 2.1 to the Fender and MT3G 1.2 models this spring. As far as a customized ROM, I seriously doubt there will be anything until the phones receive the official update.

Yea it actually ran, just said "Press the Android to Start"... well couldn't press it The 32A patch was from the G1 forum on here as opposed to the slightly newer one for magic on this sub-forum.
Also the Radio looked like it was connecting to. For all I know touchscreen, bt, and headphone jack could have been unsupported, but surprising to see it actually booted.

you can wait all you want. there is a whole new touch screen with new drivers tied to the kernel. we have yet to figure out how to get them into any other rom.
We are trying. Belive me, once we get somethign working, Wes, Criffmon and myself will let all of you know.
For now, find criffmons posts in the android themes section and use one of our themed fender roms. that is all you will gett o work. I have tested everything for a month now, even flashing the fender kernel over roms does nothing because files have been changed.
Please be patient
I think we're stuck with themes and whatnot as opposed to custom ROMs until HTC releases the kernel source. Bug @htc on Twitter for the source!

MIUI ROM port. Major progress! Calling all devs!

Hi everyone! We are currently in the middle of porting the MIUI ROM to our mdpi devices (g1, hero, magic).
We have successfully ported ALL of the pngs in all of the apks to be compatible with our devices. This was a huge undertaking and it was keeping a lot of devs from wanting to get involved. Now that this big "hinderance" is out of the way, I'm hoping some talented devs will be willing to get involved.
I have posted all the semi-ported apks (by semi-ported, I mean the images are all mdpi now) in a zip file that can be downloaded by any devs who are willing to help get the MIUI rom ported to our devices. If you'd like to download the MIUI mdpi apks, you can visit our thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858935
I don't have any dev skills, so I can't help beyond what I've already done. It is officially now in the hands of the community to take the next necessary steps to a full MIUI port. I hope that our two groups (hero and g1) can cooperate in making this happen!
That is my reason for posting here.
Hope we can get this thing working!

Question is how are you gonna get it to boot on our arm6 ? with out GPU and all ><
Could you please post a video on YOUTUBE showing how you flashed SPL 1.33.0013d SPL and 2.22.28.25 Radio. It might be very simple for you but for many noobies and mid-level flashers ,its quite troublesome. The links and everything else is there on the web but flashing in fastboot has been challenging. Flashing through rom manager has not worked after several tries. Kindly help in anyway you can. Thanks in advance. My email is [email protected].............

what do you mean? they( official android developers ) say gingerbread should run faster than a phone running froyo
plus hes actually going to start on it pretty soon according to some tweets...
but ontopic a port miui would be pretty cool to mess around with.
The majority of APKs don't work
I really want a MIUI port :|

Not sure thats why, i think its mostly lack of will Lox already submited the Hero code for instance. For dream/sapphire wouldn't be much harder, either way, it dosen't matter all that much, we will have builds based on the AOSP code.
So I take it this has been forgotten and moved beyond? MIUI would be really nice... /sigh
any devs working on this.. can someone explain to me if this is possible or not and why?
