O2X or G2X ROM on R?

Has anyone tried flashing the R with a G2X or O2X ROM? Do you think it'll work? I may give it a try based on how many people want to know.

Yes as long as you have the gingerbread OS, you are qualified.! Is there development on your phone.??
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
Yup plenty
How do you plan to distribute?
You make a rom, and leave it others to port, or do you make a source and let others do builds?

Until I get familiar with releasing source code, I'm gonna go with the porting method for the time being.!

What device do you have, and what type of device is it (tablet or phone) tablets will (in most cases based on my past development experience with them) require some more time, but if your device has a custom recovery, or a way to flash custom images such as rktool for rk2918 devices, then your good to go dude .!

Sounds great man! I am definitely looking forward to this being released. If you need someone to test/work out bugs, let me know. I have an HTC Evo 4G that I can use.

For one, it will be more ICS based (beyond the extent of a "themed" cm rom because that wouldn't be good enough IMO) so for example, the recent apps carousel, a music app built by us (later release, though), and a lot more. For the sake of the fact that I am on the xda app, it would take forever to type this stuff, but just know that it will be an awesome experience.! ill put out a full features list soon.!

Cant' wait
There is also the X2...we have development for it as well...just can't unlock the bootloader

As long as you can make it support most DPI's (HDPI/MDPI/LDPI). I'm sure our section would be happy to have a new rom. It does seem promising.

This is great, I have a G2X which has plenty of development. However I'll be moving to the Galaxy Blaze 4G which has almost no development yet.
I'll be testing for sure.

Porting rom

I was wanting to learn how to port a ROM and was wondering what phones are compatible with porting ROMs or if it mattered. I am using the step by step tutorial given in the android development forum.

I'm no dev so I can't speak for the ease of it, but the T989 is very similar and most ROMs are cross-compatible with just a rotation fix. Might be best to start there.
You can port some ROMs to some phones. You can port a aosp ROM pretty easily to about any phone but you couldn't port a sense ROM to our skyrocket because sense is complicated and requires a lot of work because its closed sourced. Same thing with our touchwiz ROMs, it won't like being ported to another phone. So if you wanna try to port something try an AOKP, paranoid android, or miui just make sure you ask permission from the original devs for the selected ROM before you post it.

Yes, and i've heard the international SGSII LTE i9210 has the same chipset as t989 so their roms should be easy to port. A guy in this forum flashed an i727 rom on his i9210 and it worked (except for softbuttons).
That said, do NOT flash any roms that aren't i727(r) or Hercules based. The international s2's kernel would brick our phone in a heartbeat. Here's a tip, the AT&T s3 has a very close chipset to ours, if you know how to edit dalvik bytecode...

I dont think there is a "issue" just no serious developers have obtained this tablet. I think in the tablet game most developers don't go for carrier ones.. I'm still setting up my PC but I'm going to try and get at least a stock deodexed ROM going tonight or tomorrow. What's the latest firmware for the i497.. I see a firmware for an Am2 having a hard time finding a place to download the latest firmware from?

As many as you want as long as they are T-Mobile (T999) compatible/based. Roms don't brick devices. It is the kernels and modems from wrong device that will brick. International on any US device or vice versa will brick due to different binaries.

So do you think going in the T-Mobile forums and flash a ROM there will work?
