Request for porting MS froyo mods to XT701/XT720 - Milestone XT720 General

EDIT:Request for porting MS froyo mods to XT701
I am a asian. I have bought my XT701 for 3 months. Once I get my phone, I rooted and overclock my phone in 1 day. I have also done app2sd(app2ext).
I really need for Android 2.2, Froyo has full Flash Player 10.1 support. I'd like to watch some flash video/play flash games. And in Android 2.2 there is performance improvement. It's new JIT compiler that will improve the CPU performance when running apps. And other things like using less RAM.
I have very serious launcher redraw/FC problem. I've tried LauncherPro and ADW EX. LauncherPro have ultra serious redraw and ADW sometimes FC. The default launcher is so laggy and can't resize widgets.
All I need is Android 2.2.
I looked at my schoolmates' MS and HTC legend/desire/dhd. Even the Chinese Shanzhai (pirated brands and goods, particularly electronics) phones can have Android 2.2. I am envious of that!!!!
Please

All I need is Android 2.2.

I see- thank you- I know that as "push"...
Aren't xt701 and xt720 that different?
By the way- your are not korean or at least could read korean signs by accident?

What is here to bump? Dexter already said he's gonna port some of his mods to the XT720 (and since the XT701 is nearly the same it'll work on that one too).

Please stop bumping this thread!
Dexter already knows about this and as soon as his XT720 arrives, he's gonna try to make roms for it and those roms will work on the XT701 too (although little modification might be needed, but not much). So please be patient. Bumping threads every time is useless.

[REQ] port "Flan" lockscreen to 1.6

I love the new lock screen for "Flan" (featured in some of the Cannon202's Eclair rom) but i want to stick with 1.6 since it seem like 1.6 run better on the G1 than 2.1. Any Dev out there that have some free time to port the lockscreen? I would appreciate it very much. Thanks.
P.S i did spend some time to seach the G1 forum and couldnt find a post on this.
there is an app called Lockbot which has all 3 lock types an more
Eclar, Hero, Flan and iPhone

After checking out lockbot the lockscreen i actually wanted is the Flan version, not Eclair.
flyscreen also uses the same lock screen with added features of course, just check that out...

I do agree with Joe333x, using app for lockscreen is a bit clunky. I would like native if possible.

yea thats eclair 2.1 ... i believe it was also in 2.0.1(the driod update) ... and i dont think it will be portable to 1.6.. because if it was it would of been done already.. many people had asked for it when eclair came out..

I'm not convinced. At all. I did a fair bit of work trying to shoehorn Eclair onto the g1 when it first dropped into the source tree.. GL or no GL, it really struggles on this phone.
It is impossible to port a lockscreen to another version of android.
Just close this thread please.
The "Flan" is a lie
Just my two cents...
So you've seen it with working hardware GL, I presume? I'm running Complete Eclair with the 3D patch and I'd say it's as good if not better than Donut, after coming from SuperD.

Its not GL.
It is DEFINITELY ***NO GL***.
I don't care how much you tried to "shoehorn" it in, you didn't have the GL drivers, and thus everything was running on the CPU... slowly.
Have a look in frameworks/base/opengl/libagl/
That is what is making it SO SLOW.
Having all that crap suck up the CPU and MEMORY.....
Do you remember when you bought your first 3D accelerator for your desktop computer? Back in the day? Probably a voodoo 2 or voodoo 3 in the late 90's... maybe even one of those crazy voodoo 1 things (or similar) that hung off the side of some other video card.... You remember how much of a difference it made?
Like this;
The 3D accelerator is MUCH MORE EFFICIENT than the CPU at performing these operations. So lets say that about 1 cycle of the GPU would take 100 cycles of the CPU to replace.... now that will displace the CPU from doing what it SHOULD be doing.... thus making the thing slow overall.
Also... fact does not depend on convincing YOU.
Facts speak for themselves.
So just wait a few days.
Then you'll be convinced

Try Beautiful Widgets, and no the Sense UI and Cy mod are not capable together. Maybe the kernel will sometime but not the actual rom. BTW major off with the section try Q&A next time before you get flamed hard.

This is development. You had an extremely simple question that could've been answered in cm's thread, or better yet in Q&A if you insist that your question is important enough to warrant it's own thread. Respect gets respect, even on the internet.
Proto is right, if this was possible somebody would've already done it ten times.

No because it's so much easier to port a whole ROM over than it is to do a hybrid. Theoretically, it would be possible to take the frameworks of Sense and apply them to the source.
Besides, your analogy seems kind of flawed. It's like saying a few days ago, "If it was possible to get full 3D and Video Acceleration on 2.1 we would've already done it." And all it took was one very dedicated and intelligent coder named Cyanogen doing it.

agreed. probably possible.. but whats the use?
Even if it was possible we have to remember it has been out for two days and is an experimental rom. NOBODY wants to work for a few hours for a couple days only to have a new, more stable rom come out that could potentially break the work they just finished. They would rather have a rom that is "stable" and won't be replaced within days (Meaning yes, a long-term rom that won't be updated for 2+ weeks).

This fits in here just fine. We have roms cooked from several different phones here. There are certainly some nice things to be found in this rom that can (possibly) contribute to the Hero.

Thank you. Knew it would come in handy.
Anybody have any clue what kind of special stuff is in there? Maybe the EVO Sense already works with JIT Roms????
I for one would love to see the new lockscreen ported to our 2.1 roms. That would be sick
I would love to have a lockscreen that isn't our stock Hero one. It's terrible. And I can't seem to get the Vanilla one working or any other one except the straight up clear one working on Fresh 2.1.
And the Hotspot app. I'd love Infrastructure wifi instead of Ad-Hoc
So other than a few different apps whats so different about the EVO rom? Been alot of talk that they may not even be able to root that baby, id feel bad for them.

The fact that Sprint is requiring (seems to be confirmed now too) that you have the Wifi hot spot add-on in order to activate the wifi on the phone leads me to believe that once people have this phone in hand they will find that it's not rootable.
I am not real savvy on rooting android phones, but it seems to me that this might be the direction that providers are going in with these phones in order to maintain add-on sales for the devices.

LOL, there are now 5000 of these things in the hands of devs. My money says it will be rooted before 6/4/10.

[ROM][32B] HTC Aria [WIP][WIP]

I am making an HTC ATT Aria rom from the RUU with the filename:
Code:
RUU_Liberty_Cingular_US_1.25.502.2_Radio_47.37.35. 09_7.08.35.06_release_128691_signed.exe
This IS the software shipped with the HTC Aria. This will work well for the G1/32B because:
- it is HVGA
- it is HTC Sense
- Has ATT apps... Should I remove them before release?
- Contains the NEWEST branch of code from HTC's Android Department (newer than slide, legend, etc. the newer the better)
- Shiny Graphics
- Updated wallpapers/app graphics/etc.
- it supports GSM frequencies/radios out of the box
Out soon. But don't expect this to be Out soon.
No I'm not wasting my time typing this, it's extracting
Post your comments about what you'd like to see in this rom.

Hm... probably not. but adb install works on the ATT phones that "block" it anyway... so it's kind of a fake block, i.e. it's missing in the menu but it doesn't actually disable the functionality. I always use ADB install anyway.
That's pretty awesome, I hope it's fast.
Thanks for this...But I dont understand why att wanted to block the install, why ruin that?

Thanks for the input guys. my test build (flashing now) doesn't include that because i didn't see your post, but i have heard very good things about JIT and sense and since this is using king kernel, you should have success with that patch on top (i will try it as well).
Also, king kernel has an optional 576 overclock.

- stock oc to 1.1ghz (battery life can extended by setcpu)
- DEfy's stock music player
- xda xt720 special bootscreen (required a talented graphic designer)

with a locked bootloader, any customization of partitions or kernel is not an option. although some think that the kexec solution is good, its still not working with radio enabled, so who wants a phone without phone functions.
Alright, since people obviously want to put their own ideas out there for this, and since I feel dexter shouldn't be bugged right now, I've decided to open this thread as an idea list, just for suggestion, and depending on how well dexters success is with this phone, maybe we can cook up something good.
I'll start of by saying I feel that porting cyanogen mod would be the best thing we can do, and to stay away from blur, it eats ram like candy, and we already have a ram problem xD
I say no against CM. Let's get 2.2 first and then see if we can get more roms, like 2.3 for example. And Blur shouldn't be on the priority list, but at least on the list as a spinoff. Dexter has done a few roms for the Milestone 1 too, including 1 with Blur as a spinoff.
perfectly working notification lights, better camera app.
the rest of the wishlist is already inside 2.2. So, I'd leave Dexter alone

I think with the locked bootlaoder you need a Motorola signed kernel so I'm not sure how realistic a gingerbread port will be.
