Dual boot Desire HD/Inspire finally!

I know some people have asked in the past about dual booting roms on the Inspire and was wondering if anyone had tried this yet. I just read it about it on the homepage of xda. I might try this later and finally test out CM7 or MIUI.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173309

Pretty cool! Personally I don't really have any use for it right now but I'm sure some people will put it to good use. It would be cool if they made a way to be able to use two different kernels though.

I personally don't have a need for it on a phone
Dual booting Windows / Linux, now that's another story.

finally! i remember posting a question on this a while back. and now, its here!!!!

Sweet have been waiting for this for a while! Now I can run MIUI and Virtuous Unity

There's a catch. If you want to run a sense and an aosp , then you have to run a sense kernel on VU and miui. And that could cause problems

This...especially if want to rock one Sense and one no Sense.

This is useless to me since you can't use different kernels, props for the dev's tho.... Unless i want one Leedroid for daily and one virtuous for showoff time.. man i was i could rock cm7 and dualboot sense for the camera, etc...

that is pretty cool, have to check it out when i get home.

I can boot AOSP ROMs and sense ROMs . Nandroid backups .
I already said that....Dohh.

Pretty cool but not really something revolutionary.
Props to the Dev though!

I am gonna close this now as there is a thread in Dev. Great work Dev. Hope others can find use for it.

no problem, if you didnt notice yet, theres two themes left in the thread

I used this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220695
I can't tell if it's the same launcher or if it's different or not? In any case, I made a MIUI theme for more icons in that same thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18058974&postcount=361

Don't mind at all. In the post I even mention that I may not be able to keep it up to date, so I'm totally cool with anyone else updating it, making changes, mods or whatever.. as long as I can find links to it just in case I wanna put a modified one on my phone.
I think I might stick with this instead of going the route of modified ROMs (MIUI ports) until those builds get official. The phone works SO much better with a modified Sense build.
I want to try to modify the MIUI Launcher to have a 5x4 layout, but I can't remember how to compile the apk after you modify it. It's been a while, so I can't really remember all the steps for using apktool on a Mac. Whenever I go to install it, the app doesn't install so I'm doing *something* wrong.

We need more support for these ROMs for the Sensation

Keep an eye out for xboarder56. He's building miui for sensation. He's.also working on pure aosp for sensation as well. His hybrid cm7/aosp is great. I liked it better than straight cm7.

Is xboaders miui real and not a rip? And there is a miui rom out here
Sent from my TripNMiUI Pyramid using xda premium

There is an actual miui rom on the miui site but trips from modaco is the best. I might try doing a sense based rom with this launcher instead of sense but I'm a noob and have never cooked one up before but I could always try
Sent from my Sensation using XDA App

The one on miui site is trips rom. Ha. They ripped it.
Sent from my TripNMiUI Pyramid using xda premium

xboarder's been on a trip since getting in drama with cm7 team. He's trying to build everything from scratch now. Not 100% sure about MIUI being scratch or not. I didn't really look into it too much. But from what I saw on G+ it looks legit i think.

ATTENTION ROM CHEFS: I MADE THIS BASE FOR YOU GUYS, I ADDED SEVERAL EASTER EGGS AND SEVERAL OTHER MODS TO MAKE THIS BASE NOTICABLE TO MYSELF, IF YOU WANT TO USE THIS BASE PLEASE GIVE PROPER CREDIT.

Downloading now. Thank you! Can't wait for your Sensation/Virtuous type Sense 3.0 ROM! Thanks so much for all your effort!

Lets get some development started on this Phone. Two ROMS arent cutting it. Lol. Im going to take a stab at it to see what i can come up with.

I thought releasing this would get more chefs into the arena which is doubleshot. Guess not.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium

I'm doing my best to read and read and learn so hopefully one day I can be in the arena with the other devs on here. It doesn't seem like there's much communal support for this phone yet, unfortunately, like an "official" recovery or kitchen support, which would handily speed up development for this phone.

Will this wipe /data?

No

Disapointment YoY a smart phones nothing without a stroung Dev Community. I understand the noobs who get mad because there's not a CM port already. They just don't understand you can do **** with out the Source. There's no such thing as a an "improper ROM". There just ungrateful, annoying, depressing assholes :3. I know, I was going to release a Barebones GB rom based on CM using Lazlo's hacked kernal for my Dream. They complained saying the kernal sucked, and the ROM didn't have all the things a CM rom would have. It was a perfect ROM, just no Wallpapers, Ringtones, Sms, Only in English, and other stuff like that. So I thought id share a story. There just annoying, think of them as spoiled brats. They'll never learn how to respect a DEV. So Please don't pull your Rom's.

[MOD] Extended Quick Settings

So this seems to be the standard of all standard mods for Sense 3 so I thought I'd port it first and post it for everyone to use.
Requirements
rooted
using a DEODEXED ROM
must know how to use ADB or have CWM installed
I used Paul's deodexed stock ROM to build this from.
Had my buddy jface test it out and it seems to be working, here's a screenie he sent me back
Installation
You can either flash the attached zip (untested, someone test it for me!), or push the attached SystemUI.apk to /system/app/SystemUI.apk.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP! Just do it. Always. It's so much easier than having to recover from a bad flash or something.

good look bro you beat me to it hahaha thanks man!!

Nice. Trying this out now. Now I can get rid of my profile widget lol.
Sent from my MyTouch 4G Slide

awesome mod! thanks a lot

Thank you! Work's great!
Lily.

can this be merged with UOT? that mod themes the battery and also patches SystemUI.apk.
So only 1 sticks .
The flashable zip does not work for me.

CRT ON/OFF HERE

Has anyone tested to see if this works on Sense 2.1 Gingerbread ROMS?
Sadly I'm still rocking an HTC HD2 and I'm running 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1.
I don't mind being a guinea pig after a nandroid backup but I just figured I'd ask if anyone tried it yet first.

It won't work. You will get a systemui fatal error and a force close loop.

Good to know. Does anyone here in this thread know how I can apply these same changes to my current systemui.apk?
I really like the Extended QuickSettings but I'm not too interested in running a Sense 3.0 ROM on a less than capable device like the HD2.

From the code I've looked at on Sense 3 ROMs, they typically define whether something is Sense 3 or 2 compatible. So in a real-world example when you're looking at Rosie it has two completely different implementations between 2.1 and 3 and they're both there in the code base. There was no such distinction with quick settings
Dumb ranting aside, I don't see a reason why it won't work on a Sense 2.1 device running Gingerbread. Shoot me over your SystemUI.apk and I might be able to port it. No promises, blind developing sucks

Never asked for a promise. The fact that you're willing to give it a shot, even though you don't have the same device as me is MORE than enough for me.
Here's my SystemUI.apk. Just did a nandroid backup so I'm more than happy to go flash happy right about now lol.

When you do the copy and paste method you must change the permissions. Flashing is much easier.

So, I think it IS possible, but it would take quite some time to go through and merge all the changes and match up all the IDs. I don't have the time or patience to do this as it takes a long time to communicate back and fourth for one single change, or error, etc etc.
Maybe an experienced smali hacker from the HD2 can port it over?
Sorry man

No worries. Like I said, I thought it was cool and figured it would be nice to have. I never expected you to spend a ton of time porting it over. Figured if the current one worked for Sense 2.1 then I'd try it. If not, maybe some other time. The fact that you even took a look at it was good enough for me.
Thanks again man.

[ONLINE KITCHEN] 13 Sep Gr1 - MoDaCo Custom ROM for the MT4GS - FREE Kitchen

I am currently testing a FREE Online Kitchen for my Gr1 ROM for the HTC Doubleshot / MyTouch 4G Slide (details of which can be found here).
The kitchen can be found in this topic. Please use this post for Online Kitchen related feedback and the main MCR post for ROM feedback.
Please note that this is very much in the testing phase at present, so no warranties are made as to it's performance and it may be offline periodically for changes.
Cheers!

Awesome! You kick ass

Thank you for this Paul. Awesome.

It's nice that it's free. I was disappointed to see that I had to pay initially, but I understand why. ~$14/year (USD) isn't bad for having those features, but I would probably only use it once.
Thanks Paul!

Anyone try this? Seems to not boot after flashing (flashing core first, then optional pack second). ADB Logcat shows the kernel boots just fine, but it looks like the initrd isn't being executed. Haven't bothered to flash a different boot.img since I'm lazy, but I will wait for Paul to email me back before I try anything.

Dude filesonic is worse then 4shared. I tried your kitchen for ****s and giggles and I got the link to DL first attempt only DLed 121kb file and i tried to DL a second time and it wants me to wait 15 minutes to produce a download link again. FYI multiupload is your best friend. And here I thought 4shared was the worst file share site out there. I was dead wrong. Wow.

Hi there, I was curious as to how long it is supposed to take for the ROM link to be emailed? I put in an order this morning, a good 7 hours ago, using the free trial of the kitchen. Thanks for this, and I look forward to trying it out

I believe that contains the set of choices that you made for your ROM in the kitchen, to be flashed after flashing the core of the ROM.

Oh - I thought it was one flash? His stuff isn't usually like that?
