[Q] Porting CyanogenMod 7 ?

We love CM7 and want to see it in Desire S.
Desire S and Desire HD are both hardware basically same. Can we port CM7 from Desire HD to Desire s ? i dont think its very hard to get it working.
Hardware:
Desire S: 1 GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 205 GPU, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon
1.1 GB ROM, 768 MB RAM
Desire HD: 1 GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 205 GPU, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon
1.5 GB ROM, 768 MB RAM
it would very cool if anyone port it to desire s. i hope i am not the only one loving Cm7 rom.
(sorry for my poor english)

Good luck if you want to, Desire S has a locked bootloader so therefore it's gonna take someone who has the phone and has experience in Android ROMs to be able to port it.

[Q] Processor for Sensation

I just want to ask a simple question, which is the processor for the Z710e:
MSM 8260 1.2GHz dual core
or
MSM 8660 1.5GHz dual core???
I'm a bit confused because the Android Revolution ROM changed the processor data in the about phone into 86660...

MSM 8260 underclocked to 1.2GHz

So, the processor is MSM 8260 which is supposed to be clocked at 1.5GHz??

1.5GHz is the nativ speed but HTC underclocked it for the Sensation - probably knowing they could use the same chip in another model in the future

So if i got this right, the sensation XE and the sensation have the exact same processesor?

They do indeed, exact same everything if you believe this site:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/htc-sensation-xe-coming-to-o2-uk/
HTC Sensation XE Specifications:
• Dual-core 1.5 GHz processor, Adreno 220 GPU, Qualcomm MSM 8260 Snapdragon
• 4 GB internal memory(1 GB user available), 768 MB RAM (1 GB would have been sweeter)
• 4.3 inch LCD display with gyro-sensor, accelerometer and HTC Sense UI
• 8 MP, 3264×2448 pixels, autofocus, dual-LED flash with 1080p video recording
• Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread O.S
• Expected to launch in Q4

[Q] Advice before jumping on development

I'm going to buy a phone from a lesser known brand, and will be developing custom roms for it
The specs are as follows
CPU: 1Ghz Scorpion Qualcomm
GPU: Adreno 200
RAM: 256 mb
Chipset: MSM7627a
Display: 4inch. 480x800
Dual sim
Coming from a samsung device i always had ODIN to protect my back
and since this a small brand i doubt i will be able to get my hands on some equivalent
so my question is
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom after i potentially brick (soft-brick) the device?
will the HTC based hBoot method work?
since the nexus one and incredible s share he same CPU-GPU-Res combo
Thanks

GOCLEVER FONE 450 - 4,5" HD IPS, 1GHz dual core, 1GB, 5MPx budget Android smartphone

GOCLEVER FONE 450 - 4,5" HD IPS, 1GHz dual core, 1GB, 5MPx budget Android smartphone
GOCLEVER FONE 450 - new super cheap Android phone, 2-3 times cheaper even than the Google Nexus 4, but still offers 4,5 inch HD IPS screen, dual core CPU, GPS and all other features.
4,5" HD IPS-LCD 1280x720 pixels
MediaTek MT6577 1GHz (Dual Core Cortex A9, GPU SGX531)
1GB RAM
Android 4.1
5MPx camera, GPS, Accelerometer.

I bought this phone for my wife instead of Samsung Duo S (which was laggy beyond reasonable) and so far she's very satisfied with it (oh yes, it's white). The display is gorgeous for this price tag, the overall speed is also a nice surprise. I also like the management of the 2 SIM's.
The down sides are:
- the battery capacity
- localization (to Slovak language in my case)
- the tech support told me it should get Android 4.3, but no ETA and honestly I'm quite sceptic about that
- lack of documentation that would enable to root it and install custom recovery
- GPS acts funny - sometimes it takes even 10 minutes to get a fix, sometimes it's matter of a few seconds

Any way to root this terminal?

I'm afraid not. I tried all ways I was able to find for this processor family without luck. I also wrote the official GoClever tech support but they only confirmed me the root is not available for this phone. Shame, this phone phone would deserve it.
Btw. I'm going to send mine for repair - there's something seriously wrong with the phone (gsm?) module. There's around 30% chance that I receive or make a call even if the phone is normally connected to the network. Really annoying.

How about the warranty?

What about the warranty? If you don't root the phone (which seems impossible at the moment), you cannot impact the warranty.

Srsroot.com should help.

Framaroot works flawlessly with ALL GoClever devices. Tested on 450Q, 570, Quantum 4, 400, 785 and Insignia 5 & 5X. Custom ROMs also work if you pay attention to the chipset.

I'll have to correct you a bit: it has an 8MPx camera (although it says 5 on it, it's a factory error) and it's a Quad-Core.
GPS is crap, there's a fix for that though.
I can provide original stock Android ROM and flashing tools per request. Used to be Goclever's product manager.
