Just wondering if anyone could tell me if I there is a compatible Gingerbread or froyo rom that would work on the Cube U30GT-H?
I know this is opposite to most requests but I would like to be able to use an older version of Android.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thank you guys (and girls of course) for pushing the android experience more than just-another-smart-phone for the curious users.
I have searched a lot by moving around in this forum for last couple of days, looking for a cool ROM for my first ever (but not last, only the beginning) ROM upgrade.
I have read the wiki and have explored all the given links. But I couldn't find few simple answers. Please help me by answering my following questions-
1. Is there any list of currently available ROMs with pros and cons of each ROM? Is there any benchmark for stability, performance,supported features for all the available ROMs ?
2. What's there any matured stable 2.x.x ROM for HTC magic 32A which is not-slow and does well what it is supposed to do?
3. What's the pros and cons for older versions and newer versions? In another way of asking- why you developers still working on the 1.5 and 1.6 ROMs? Why not 2.x.x for HTC magic?
4. (lame question) Which of the ROM versions does have flash 10 (so that flash videos or files will work on webpages)?
Please ignore my lack of knowledge and enlighten me and other newbies as well.
Thank you very much once again
1. No but you may have a look at this.
2. Manup456's Eclair is what I'd go for. It isn't slow nor buggy but keep in mind that there are things that still don't work properly and probably won't until HTC or some operator releases an official 2.1 update for the Magic. You'll also need a port to install it on a 32A.
3. 1.5 and 1.6 have been officially released for the Magic while 2.xx hasn't yet. That means everything works as it should on 1.5 and 1.6. On 2.1 you get the new Android features but you lose some functionalities as well so it all depends of what you need and don't need (if you can live without camera recording and hardware acceleration you'll be fine). People also stick to some 1.5 ROMs because of SenseUI (there are a few 2.xx ROMs with SenseUI but none of them is really ready for prime time).
4. Flash 10 isn't available to us yet. There is a version of Flash Player included in the HTC Browser (meaning you need a ROM which includes the HTC framework) but it's not that great as it doesn't support the newer Actionscript 3/FP 10 Flash files. It can play Youtube videos though.
My personal advice would be to avoid 2.xx ROMs for the moment and to try a good stable 1.5 SenseUI ROM like Cursorsense or GyD... and if you then feel that 1.5 is too old you can try Amon RA's Donut or Ahmgsk's.
Hope this helps... you could have posted this in the general forum though
So we have source, correct? Is anyone working on compiling a GingerBread rom for the g-tablet? I have compiled kernels for my iphone (idroid - android rom for the iphone) but I am not sure if I would be of any help. I would love to see a vanilla/pure ASOP Gingerbread running on the g-tablet.

Bekit is currently working on the system portion of it with the main limiting factor being a change in how GB addresses sensors and having no insight into the nvidia libraries. Jump into IRC if you think you could help out with the kernel.
I did put together a very stock like GB themed build if you want to check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853310
i currently have android 2.2 on my htc hd2, but am looking for new roms to try out like honeycomb or gingerbread but i cant seem to find any so can anyone plz gimme links to some nand roms so i install.
I would like to install android 2.1 on Nexus S. Yes, you read that correctly. I want to backup my existing cyanogen 7.1 (android 2.3) install, install 2.1, create a backup of that, then be able to switch back and forth between 2.1 and 2.3 for testing android apps during development.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Do you know of any roms that might work? Any direction would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

sure that would work!
but there arent any android 2.1 nexus s roms. you would have to build your own from source, or port a 2.1 rom to the nexus s
Hmm...well then it does not look too promising for me . I have never built an android rom or ported one before. If anyone else has any other ideas I would love to hear them.
Maybe it would be possible for me to install an android 2.1 rom made for the Galaxy S?

the galaxy s rom wouldnt flash, unless you turned off the signature check in recovery. then you will probably just brick your phone.
The kernel I think would be the hard part of this.
Anyone knows any news about that device? I've seen the CWM and clean rom posts but seems to be abandoned... Anyone is planning to create an android 2.3 rom? Beginning from the dump files from the "phone" is possible to cook a 2.3 rom? I would try to play ingress with that devices but is impossible with the stock froyo rom... Otherwise, I've seen a modded version of ingress (broot, that doesn't run on 2.2) anyone knows if there is an android 2.2 ingress porting?
Thanks
