CyanogenMod Rom - Defy Android Development

Hi,
Is there any person or developer who can port CyanogenMod Rom on our Defy?
Or do you guys have any idea regarding this? How can we attract the attention to any developers towards our Defy?
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/screenshots
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/
CyanogenMod Rom works on Droid. So That should work on our Defy as well.
Looking forward to hear your ideas guys......

We need a recovery first

How can we get that recovery?

Wait for it to be sorted - it will come, just got to be patient

What does it really mean that we need recovery and why? Please explain in a way that a noob can get it.or diect me to a place to read thanks!

Bcs recovery is needed to get the modded ROM onto the DEFY!
You need to replace/modify allot of things and this is not as easy as getting a non market app onto your mobile
And i guess there are much more people looking for a 2.2 or perhaps 2.3 then waitin for a CyanogenMod Rom!?

The modded recovery is out... Please Cyanogen make a miracle...!

my main phone is a G2, and have yet to run a CM rom, I'm, more then happy with what we have so far for the Defy, and thanks everyone efforts, if someone ports an OEm Sense Rom over this way well that's another story lol

You know what I am with the guy above. Im loving what I got so far. And in the new year I will probably do my own custom rom. I am not in any rush to get 2.2 at the moment, and im getting an android tablet today so hack time is being diverted to that

HI, how can we do that?
I would like to help all to get a working custom rom.
But where can i get the information?
No idea how i can create a own rom.
What is about the driver, firmware etc?
How can i cook a rom.
On several websites there a only manuels about HTC roms, and online kitchen.
But no with motorola sets.
Please help a send information how.
THANKS!!

Google, you need to be prepare to read - alot.
Everything I have learnt is from googling - all the various android forums.

Hi, i asked google a lot, but can´t find a realy gooo anser what excatly todo.
I can compile my own rom from source, but what is with driver?Firmware?
How i implement this?

Is the bootloader locked the same way as it is on milestone, droid x and droid 2? Or is it hack friendly and we can load any custom kernel?

I missed this thread before.
I would love to see CM's rom on the Defy. In fact I would have no problem donating to the individual who makes it happen

no way!
No one wants to hack the defy!
Would easy i guess for a realy hacker.
But no one do it.
All want to give motorola devices back or won´t buy it.
Poor.

Very different phone dude, you can find a new defy for 290€, seems the Lg Optimus 2x will be around 550€ ... that's really expensive

Not true. Several people already have.

And ofcourse, if you find yourself in any situation where your phone might get wet or dropped, there's no point in comparing them.

Until froyo(kernel) is released by motorola, we can "only" have a CM5 port for the defy.
It would be great trying froyo kernel without any modules and having them replaced by DEFY ones... Doing that we would know if motorola uses the same key for all the androids

Calling Devs contribute to the Motorola Triumph!(UPDATED)

UPDATED (8-1-2011)
Well here's the basics. The triumph can be rooted with gingerbreak, and need a dev to make us some roms. Now i think the bootloader UNLOCKED and similar to the droid(stock froyo build on triumph) There are guys and gals who will contribute on Androidforums.com to see some dev work completed on the triumph. So basic review what we need:
A Dev - we have One that really contribute alot(issacj87) And we would like some more lol!
Custom recovery - Thanks to issacj87 AND tj styles we have CWM!!!
ROMS- This is the next step
And i would love to see MIUI on the triumph- Waiting on a cm7 build then this COULD be a reality!
Here's some specs on the triumph:

Also here's info on the CWM port for Motorola triumph.

Did you charge your phone to 100% and let it die on you before charging it up back to 100% again? You have to train the phone to get use to your usage.
I'm not a true dev, but I make themes, and I could port my sense theme to this phone if anyone wants?
Yes please!
Will be picking up this phone soon. Xda devs are awesome.

Yes any kind of help is much apperciated
Looks like we about to get the stock rom quicker than i excepted. No eta but looks promising!!!
http://sourceforge.net/motorola/discussion/general_comments/thread/f28d8cb7/
TJ Style is working on a rom for the CSL Spice Mi410.
I guess it may be cross flashable with the Triumph since these have identical specs.
Anyone risked the Gingerbread firmwares out for the Mi410 on their Triumphs?
A beta 2.6.32.9 kernel source code for the Mi410 has been released btw
id be willing to throw some money a dev's way to get CM7 on this sucker...
We have a custom recovery CWM!!! Thanks to issacj87, tjstyles, and others!
Anybody that would like to build a custom rom, or a theme build for us please let us know! we can provided you a cwm nandroid of the stock rom!!!
http://androidforums.com/triumph-all-things-root/383332-clockworkmod-recovery-motorola-triumph.html
This requires more attention. This phone rocks for the price. Why is there no section for the Triumph on here? It would get more attention if we did. Not that there's anything wrong with androidforums, there's just a different group of developers here. More the merrier.

[Q] How to check custom ROM compatibility?

How can I check if a custom ROM is compatible with my phone?
Is it only compatible on a certain phone?
I have a Cherry Mobile Burst, And sadly I can't find a custom ROM for my unit. So I'm asking if there are other custom ROM that I can use??
Thanks!!! :crying:
The only real way is to make sure it specifically states that it IS for your device. If you cannot find one for your device, then you can try to develop one. Even the identical chipset will have different hardware that make the ROMs incompatible.
If it does not say "This ROM is for XXX device" then don't flash it, that's my advice.

I doubt it because there is a lot of work that goes into developing a ROM, like hours and hours, so usually phones that not many people have don't really get it, because why develop for a phone that 20 people own when you can develop for one that thousands or millions of people own.
Keep looking, there may a custom ROM out there, does your phone go by another name? Like an actual model number?

There are no developers that own that device, if they did then there would be ROMs for it.
There is no point in asking or waiting for developers to make ROMs for this device because it will never happen.
You've got a low end device that no one is interested in developing for, you'll have to learn to do it yourself if you want ROMs, that's the only way you'll get ROMS for this device.

[Q] How to port Gingerbread?

I have an old Lg c550 Optimus Chat, it's running froyo 2.2.2, no one built a custom gingerbread rom for it so i would like to give it a try. Can anyone give me advices about what to do? Is it there a guide for dummys? I'm not a coder but if it's not too hard i can try to do it. Please help me out
P.s.: I was thinking to modify a p350 or a p500 Gingerbread but i don't know what to do

Well,I don't say it will work but it's pretty tough.Porting different android versions requires great knowledge and compiling also.But,while building a rom for a specific device is more secure than porting as we never know it will boot or not.But,you may try. But,I nor xda is responsible for any problems to device.You should make a backup and have all recovery tools with you,to ensure that your device didn't get brick.
replace ram disk
Modify updater scripts
Chown and chmod lines modification
init.rc editing
Rom patching

Well,Let me clarify one thing.All are noobs in starting.When we start to try things ,we gain knowledge.When I join Xda I didn't knew any thing rather than rooting.I thought that if I know rooting fully,I will be a great dev.(Told u I was a NOOB).Then,I to become popular I posted screenshots of a build.prop edit with written 4.1.1
and told I ported jelly bean.Some people told me -Wow,you are a genious dude.I felt very good hearing appreciation from them.Then,they asked me link for his.I made excuses day after day.then,one day the moderator posted a reply which changed me.So,That's why I started to gain knowledge about all this.

Search for custom ROM which is made for your device.Try CyanogenMod or even search on this forum.My Samsung S+ was running on Gingerbread and now i rooted it with 4.4.2 and it really makes it faster and smoother.But try rooting along side a experience guy else it will brick your device

I searched evrywhere for a custom rom but no luck, cyanogen mod doesn't support my phone, the only thing i was able to do it was root it with gingerbreak 1.2.
So no one can be my obi one kenoby? First of all i would need a clock work mod recovery right? There isn't one for this phone so how can i do it? Is it hard to build?

Lg stylo metropcs/t-mobile roms dev??

we have cm 12.1 for our device also thanks to @Unjustified Dev http://androidforums.com/threads/h631-ms631-beta-cyanogenmod-12-1-for-lg-g-stylo.926968/
from what i read in that thread he has let another dev take over for him and im sure they will upload new builds for us as soon as they can...patience is a virtue
we also have @GameTheory. helping us as well as others i cant think of at the moment (its way too early, hopefully they will chime in)...but yeah i would definitely love to see more roms for this phone too. i do like the stock lg rom though, and combined with xposed/some buildprop tweaks ive made, im very happy with my phone in its current state that i dont mind patiently waiting for some roms to show up :good:
Yea, if we got flashable zips for the official updates I would be OK with that.

I think it is possible to extract KDZ files using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575 and then repack them for flashing via custom recovery
Furthermore, you can download your current KDZ file (if available) from this link
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=YOUR_IMEI_HERE
You need to replace YOUR_IMEI_HERE with your own IMEI, visible on the box, behind the battery or by typing *#06# in your phone dialer
Okay cool i wished i knew how to build roms but as long as this awesome phone dont be left for dead im happy with that. Would be great to see more than just cyanogenmod roms though
