How easy is it to convert a rom from Desire HD to Desire s?
The reason I say so, my brother (owner of DHD) uses this rom :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056727
which is probably the best rom I have ever seen, its by LeeDroid, whats the chance of it coming to Desire S?????
Reading and comparing all about the desire HD, it doesnt differ much....
We have a leedroid port in the dev area.

I tried it... But i soft bricked my DS. Luckily with RUU (in fastboot menu in bootloader) i could make my device useable again... Please leave it to people who have the knowledge about it. Most of the devs i know have studied several code languages like java and C.

You don't really need to know java and C++ to port a ROM....Assuming it's from Device A to Device B, and they're related. It's easy to port the ROM when it's from the same series/generation and have same hardware.

Hi everyone !
I have a big problem :
I had an HTC DESIRE and it was very fun to install a lot of ROM and I liked it but my phone has been stole and now I have an HTC DESIRE S.
It's a great phone but it's S-ON and I miss my ROM !!!
So here I am, I can take my dad's DESIRE and give him my DESIRE S but if I do it, maybe I will have some regrets if HTC or the devs unlock the bootloader...
What do you think about my situation ?
we all can't look in the future if htc will open bootloader and for which phones they will open it
we can't help you about your situation
anyway the desire s doesn't has much devs yet so if you are about custom roms the desire is better for you
Yeah, I'm thinking the same.. thank you for your anwser !
I would keep the S no matter of root or not. Better gpu

nobody could port Miui ROM from desire hd (so similar to desire s)?
something is started in dev thread, but the project seems to be dead.

I guess people are more interested in sense 3.0. I think a CM7 port will get support, MIUI just isn't that popular among DS users.
I want miui!

ok, but this port it's the same that i've made with android kitchen....a lot of things don't work...and there is no development since months
Wait till Desire S can be easily changed to S-off (without xtc clips or ordering the phones from SEA) I did see a port but if you are that desperate, you could try porting it yourself (asking original devs and making sure it is ok with them first of course)

Installing an ruu will unroot it. Root is access the os layer /system and nothing else.

Why would you put a stock DESIRE HD ROM on an INSPIRE just to hope that HTC will think you have a DHD and give you the update for the DHD? Well they won't anyways. You do realize a stock DHD ROM is not 100% compatable with the Inspire? They do have slight hardware differences.
Gene Poole has a rooted version of the new DHD ROM with adjusted drivers for the Inspire in the Development section. If that is what you want in the end then just install it. Here is the link.

Only problem with that is, other users, like myself, have gotten a bootloop after installation. It will boot, but will constantly loop on the "HTC - quietly brilliant" screen. Last I checked, there was no solution as of yet. If Gene Pool can figure out what is causing it and correct it, I will most likely try flashing it again.

If you really want to run this stock base, I would go into fshami's Sens 3.0i thread and ask Wild Child if you could test his soon to be released stock version of this base. It has all the S's- smooth, stable, speedy, solid..... I'm sure he wouldn't mind another good tester.

The Sensation forums have some awesome people in it. If you have any troubles or questions feel free to send me a PM.
Thanks! I noticed this forum is buzzing with excitement, compared to the myTouch 3G Slide forums.
Which version of HTC Sense should I go with after I S-OFF? I like Sense 4.0, which my brother has on his One S, but Sense 3.6 has also caught my eye.
Sense 4 isnt perfectly functional but unless you use BT alot it doesn't matter.I'd go for S4 personally (Although im on MIUI at the minute as the battery life is far better than any sense variant)
I don't actually have a Bluetooth. I mostly like eye candy. I like aosp, I'm a man of bells and whistles. I like to be able to show my friends the advanced graphics and such.

Thanks! Should I unlock the bootloader or go with S-OFF? I used to have S-OFF on my myTouch 3G Slide, before I made the stupid mistake of updating to the official FroYo, which destroyed my root and S-OFF. Also, will Darktremor work on this device?

When you unlock bootloader you obtain s-off if im not wrong and the best way to do it is whit revolutionary method or htcdev works aswell but if you send your device backin whit htcdev method they will know you have hacked ur phone :/

Most definitely S-off, with S-off you have full read write permissions for all partitions. With HT Dev unlock you only have read write permissions for your System, Boot, and Recovery partitions. Plus you have to flash the boot.img for each ROM you want to use manually via fastboot command or use Smartflash in 4EXT.
Sorry but I do not know about Darktremor.
Hi all,
Simply , what shall u do to upgrade Desire S to ICS if you are the following... just guide me please
- Normal use
- Phone not rooted
- Region Arabic
- don't know the differences between RUU, ROM, Kernel
- Saw that there was something released on HTCDev but noticed region is CHS...don't know what is that, is that the final stage?
What shall I do, since its the first time for the update not to be OTA.
I have small idea, need guidance & links.
Thanks a million in advance

Simply, read until you know what you are doing. Until then, do nothing.

Why have you started a new identical thread?
Sywepd form my DsereiS
Htcdev has just released the kernel source, it is not meant to be flashed on a device but compiled on a PC and then installed along an ICS ROM but it certainly won't work out of the box.
If this doesn't make any sense to you, you'll have to wait.
