... i have a 2.1 Device and want to Port 2.2 to it ?? Port Android 2.2 to a 2.1 Device...
don't needs to be device specific... a generall statemate is allready more than i have now!
I think the point that is trying to be made is that you have a device. It happened to have come with 2.1 on it. It's not really a 2.1 device. It's just a device with 2.1 on it. You just need a kernel and device drivers that are compatible with 2.2 and your device. That's very much a summary though.
If I had to guess, you should be able to get most things working under 2.2 with the drivers from 2.1. However, I only have 1 device (a Droid Eris), so I have no experience with the devices that you mention.

i'm awar of that the device is "not a 2.1" device only... and it could be possible to get an official ROM in future.. but i wanna try to do it earlyer on myself!
so that is the point...
i saw this from HD2 Android Development...
there where firstly only 2.1 available..
but shortly after that there was a 2.2 Port too!
i pretty guess that they didn't have to rewrite the hole modules (drivers) the just edited somethin in the Nexus/Desire 2.2 File so to match the HD2
thx

Understood.
It's quite possible, I'm sure. There has not been an official 2.2 update for the Eris (and won't be), but there are several CM6 (2.2) ROMs out for it. The same for the Hero and probably several others.
I have a partially working AOSP (non-CM) 2.2 ROM, but have yet to get the audio to work. (I really like to hear the phone ring, so it's not quite usable yet.)
ok sounds good so far...
now the question is, whats the general process of gooing such a port on?
to get the system dump is not the problem... that should be done easily...
Are you talking about below device ?

JXD S18 Mini Pad Questions

Just received my JXD S18 Mini Pad and was wondering what ROM I can install on it.
It's running Ice Cream Sandwhich, Version 4.0.4
This device is already rooted, so that is not neccesery.
Is it possible to install Cyanogen mod on this device?
Are there custom ICS 4.0.4 roms with less bloat?
If I install a custom ROM e.g. Cyanogen mod, will the tablet still be rooted??
heres mine

Hello, I'm quite new to android and
I was wondering if the skelrom for jxd s601would be compatible with my JXD S18 tablet version 01? Because I have been looking for a custom rom for my JXD S18, and sad to say that can't find any. I find using the S18 with the jxd provided firmware a hassle as the battery drains very fast. I'm looking for 3 or 3.5 hours (minimum) to 4-4.5 or even 5 hours (maximum). And since the S601 is very similar to the S18 in terms of specs, perhaps i can use this rom as a base for me to modify into something for the s18, or even use it directly on my s18. Any ideas? Thanks & Regards,
Is there a way to add a change apps button?
Hello.
Does anybody know a way to add the virtual button for overview / switch between apps and selecting which ones to close, so you release some RAM? I uploaded 3 images to show there's no overview button on the home screen.
I recently bought a S18 tablet from a small store in Bogotá and despite being so limited in functions, RAM and battery life it's not that useless, at least it's good to read some texts and listening to music (I just installed AIMP, which i consider as the best offline audio player for Android).
