it was posted here because its about the rom? i might still be wrong though...and its not really my fault if people start flaming about wanting iOS on an android.
People won't start flaming because they want it, it'll be just the opposite. It's a question about a rom that isn't in development and doesn't exist It belongs in general.

Exactly, why buy an Inspire in the first place if you want ios (which will most likely never happen on our phones).

buy an iphone, problem solved.

If the Inspire was like an iphone I would have never bought one !!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Flames aside, most of iOS isn't open source. It's core, Darwin, is but it's ARM port is not. Really, it'd be re-inventing the wheel just to have a BSD-based base instead of a Linux one that already works.
There currently is no way, and probably never will be.
And there's a reason they managed to run Android on an iPhone and no one's tried to run iOS on an Android phone........
Besides, don't you think MIUI beats the pants off iOS? IMO, MIUI says "Hey iPhone. Check this out."

In addition to extremely difficult and/or painstaking, there are legal ramifications to worry about. Apple has a habit of ripping the heads off of people who infringe on their patents/copyrights. Don't think that this board isn't monitored in one way or another. I doubt anyone would want to risk legal action to make a ROM that probably wouldn't be of much interest to the Android community as a whole.
I love Android over iOS for everything, except the lack of 3D games =(.
I would love to have Ace Combat, Metal Gear Solid, etc. on my phone... :/.

the point is Android is open source while WP is not
Yes thank you I understand that. Winmo 6 and earlier were not open source either. It didn't keep people from doing all kinds of amazing stuff with it. I know that as of now there's no real way for people to get wp7 onto android phones but it doesnt mean it won't or can't ever happen. Personally, I don't really care as I think it kinda blows anyways but I'm all for people hacking whoppers into McD's restaurants.

I really, really deeply despise HTC Sense, its worthless, is there a Nexus One/Nexus S style Generic Android Rom for this phone. It has to be 100% stock Android.
So you bought an Sensation (which MAJOR selling point is Sense) for what reason??
Anyway, questions go in Q&A
Yeah? I suppose you also like pink frosted cookies, daises, and cars that look like lunchboxes also known as the Prius. Anyways, nobody asked you to question my intentions and reasoning behind my decision to purchase the sensation, and last I checked the hardware was the selling point shmuck. If you have an answer for me, please answer, if you don't then don't leave a stupid comment like 'EddyOS'
CM7 nightlies will be here soon (hopefully) Meanwhile you can try nosense script and some mixed ROMS (meaning it has some things from Sense and some from AOSP)

Hey, Evo4Eva might not have the most polite way of expressing his opinion, but he does have a point!
I don't know how webOS is on a phone, but on a tablet it really is awful. It's immature, unpolished and clearly unfinished. It's actually so bad, that it made a tablet with excellent hardware, like the Touchpad, god awfully slow.
You can browse faster on an old HTC Desire than on a Touchpad. And that really says something, considering the fast dualcore Snapdragon CPU that thing has.
(Besides, webOS is the Flying Dutchman of Operating Systems. It's cursed and destroys any company or hardware it gets close to!)

Regarding SK4G, there's not much left to do except fix a few bugs in the latest version (pertaining to new tweaks, **** happens right?) Then, after get a battery mod, maybe build in supercharger values and then? My works done, nothing left to do.

Wrong section btw.

It has to do with development of the SK4G. I, think people have a right to know after developing something and using it, where the device stands. You no longer have a sidekick, so at the moment Im the last remaining dev, and while I'm trying not to leave people in the dark, I'm not even a good developer. Hell, I'm not even a developer at all. I just grouped things together. So, I won't be on XDA anymore, so I don't care if this is wrong section or not. I did my good deed and did my best to develop a ROM. Enjoy it all, remember stick to 3.7. Peace!

thanks for the work and trying to make our phone as good as possible, but unfortunately this phone is far from savable. its quite sad, really. i'm going to Tmobile today to see what they can do about getting me a different phone, this is simply unacceptable how it behaves even with a custom ROM installed.
Let me know what they say about getting a new phone, I've been trying the same thing
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA
same bull****, that they can only replace it with another sidekick. i was like, really?
they said the only thing i could do was add a line and then just switch phones. bogus. the rep at the store knew damn well the problem that the Sidekick was, so Tmobile is VERY aware of the problem they have/had with this phone and its software. worst come to worst, i'll threaten a class action lawsuit, since i know theres a lot of people who would be interested given the pages and pages of complaints about this phone on its tmobile.com support page forum.
i just want a similar phone, not even one thats necessarily better, just one that works better. like the LG Mytouch or something. anything with 4g thats similar and Android.
ok i wanna look into this, i might take a new one just to have a fresh phone but no this isnt acceptable, im working on a rom right now maybe it will work better after i work the kinks out
Yeah, I'm surprise jin1337's rom are way better than GC, kanger are better. Pick up n fix it change what people want. Dev want to do it their on way. Customer is always right.
Yeah the mods in this section could care less about the Device, and Neither of the two who ruined it for us have one either.

iThink (see what I did there? ) it's more to do with the fact that XDA is a 'Windows Phone and Android' development site, plus the iPhone is a completely different device to everything else. You can't flash custom ROMs on it or anything like that, all you can do is jailbreak it (as far as I know).

If I could be so blunt and I don't mean it in a derogatory way, iPhones are not really a smartphone,they are smart to the masses who feel they have to fit in and they are special to the people who make them I suppose. A completely overated device that only lets you do what the makers want you to do, it's a fashion accessory and nothing else.
Every phone listed on this site can do exactly the same and better and the makers believe in letting the consumer decide how they want their phone that they've paid for to behave,power to the people.
