Can this rom be ported? - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have this on my incredible and its super fast. Feels very lite. It is a 2.2 aosp rom, so I'm thinking, easy on system resources. So I'm wondering if this could be useable on the eris. Would be nice.
Check it out...

Possible, but impractical. Since the incredible has an hdpi screen, and the eris has mdpi, every single graphic has to be manually resized. It's possible, but it would be a nightmare. Maybe someday an automated solution will be created. That would rock!

Not gonna lie, that UI looks pretty legit. I would defiantly flash if someone ported it.

Yeah, that's got a really nifty UI... I want.

I would love to have this ported too...At first they said it worked on Desire but I thought they meant the desire that resembles the eris. I am almost tempted to go with a desire just so i can root and try out that rom...lol.

I've been drooling over this rom the past couple days. I rooted my buddy's dinc and was checking out roms for him and saw this one. It would be SAWEEEEET!!

Not that I have any idea what I'm talking about when it comes to porting (like at all), but could something like this be of any help? -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785864

it could be ported alot easier if the res on the screens was the same as ours, if the made that for the legend we would get it but most likely it wont happen. :/

i have it downloaded but by the time i upload it u would have found it lol

Go to the incredible forums or the nexus one forums its being distributed there. I didn't think it would be that difficult given that my favorite 2.2 eris rom cyanogen tazz was ported from a nexus one build.
I'm running this on my incredible now. Its marvelous. It works better than sense running live wallpapers. No lag at all. It should run exceptionally good in the eris. Some one start a donation drive for someone who can port it.

cyanogenTazz wasnt ported from the nexus one, it was from the hero or the g1 i dont excatly remember but not fromt he nexus one

Oh yea! My bad. Kaosfroyo I think was ported from n1
Sent from my Incredible using Tapatalk

I was just in the Legend forum and somebody has ported the HTC Wildfire's froyo with sense. It boots up but is not fully working yet. But it looks like the light at the end of the tunnel is getting a little brighter
Edit - Oops, I just realized this isn't where I wanted to post this lol, sorry!

So, is a port of this ROM going to remain a dream? lol I was just wondering if anyone was being ambitious.
Thanks.

Port it now please

Nope, KaosFroyo is definitely built from source by Kaos, specifically for eris. I think maybe v1 used code from the N1 dump, but there's really never been a functional eris rom ported from an HDPI device like you guys are asking for. People just don't do it.

I want it NOW!

Wow that UI is insane I want it. If anyone decides to port it or try ill add to donation

Porting the Nexus One Honeycomb ROM

I really want honeycomb on my eris and the dev for the nexus one rom said that we can use his, i believe that it would be an easy port considering our phones are pretty much identical spec wise. Any devs willing to give this a try?

Sorry bro.. I would but its not guna be a easy port..atleast not for me.to much to do. Alot if resizing. Ect...
yeah that would never happen... someone should just do an SDK build
caugh*kaos*caugh
Isn't the Nexus One, hdpi ?
http://phandroid.com/2011/03/02/htc...-3g-and-g1-latest-to-receive-honeycomb-ports/
if they can port it to the g1, we have an epic chance of getting this working right
Interesting... but with Honeycomb designed for larger screens I'm not sure what the real benefits would be considering the Eris' 3.2" display.
Now Ice Cream... that's a different story.
It's HDPI and the Eris MDPI, it would take a s&@t load of work to get this ported to the Eris.
Well... I've done it. I put honeycomb on my Eris... but now its all sticky and I think I have honey in the charging port.

[REQUEST] Sense based ROM for Optimus V

Is it possible to get sense on Optimus V?
well combine CM7, a sense style theme, LP Sense UI, Fancy Widgets with H7C skins... you can get something that is sense-ish
i doubt we'll ever see anything closer to sense on the Optimus V
Thats what i thought :/
well
I did do some looking on youtube and cam across this http://youtu.be/PzlBijNUbnc an I was amazed but I don't know how he got it like that.
I think it would be pretty much impossible for us or most other non htc based phones to ever see a sense based rom, I believe the major reason is because of legality issues with it. Don't quote me on that though. I'd love to see it happen, but it just wouldn't be worth it for any devs
someone ported it to the optimus p500 and has a thread on it. It's very much possible and would probably be a huge pita.
Yeah i could see some trouble with legality. I did see something over on android central, it was a fully themed HTC Espresso ROM which i think would be pretty cool to have. However, the link was to a google docs file share and the file was gone
but, by the time i can afford a Moto Triumph they're will probably be quite a few ROM's out. I know they've already rooted with Gingerbreak. savin up my money
Probably something I did awhile back. The legality isn't/hasn't ever been an issue. It's just getting everything to work right. I did a cm7 theme (it's on the market) it's missing some things and right now I been making my own roms so that the lockscreen can look like it should and a couple other things.

I was doing some research into porting it and got some good feedback/suggestions here, but until I actually get an amaze in my hands to play with I won't share the miui rom I've been trying to work on.. I was buying one on xda, but that didn't work out so I am looking on ebay/craigslist
I've been playing phone tag with a guy on craigslist all morning about buying his amaze, but he seems a little sketchy.. if you are a little tech savvy you could definitely take the advice from that thread above and build on top of the miui for sensation with some of the stock files, watch the logcat, and maybe get a mostly functional rom..
BUMP!!! hopefully one day someone will take up the mantle and get us this! me and mike really need this LOL

the only thing i regret about getting this phone is no miui or at the very least cm7! i agree with you, miui is the best rom ever! this sense bs is garbage! when i bought this phone, i thought it would be like the early days with my mt4g, but then i got spoiled by miui and never looked back

miui is aosp, with a twist
In order to have MIUI stable we'd need to have CyanogenMod stable first. Miui relies on the CM source.

100% Correct. Although i thought X was working on an AOSP ICS rom...either way, i know X will make our dreams come true
X is working on an aosp rom based on a different set of sources than CM9.

An Amazing idea.

Well, dev's have successfully ported over some sense ROM's with higher versions of android and Sense Software. Can someone manage to port over Sense 1.0, like the OG EVO has ATM. I am willing to test everything out, it can't be that hard, right?
Sense 1.0 was the original sense on the HTC hero I believe and was android 1.5
Why would you want that?

You know what? I thought of that a longgg time ago but never said anything cuz I thought I'd get flamed lol...that would be really interesting though I wonder how the battery would be too
I don't believe any version of sense below 3.0 was made for qhd devices. Therefore to port an older version of sense would require a lot of re-sizing and m10 editing I believe. I think someone would have to be really dedicated to the project to put in the time required. That being said, I think sense 2.1 would run extremely well on this phone. The downsides would be that you'd have to run gingerbread, you'd lose some features, and of course the tedious re-sizing of many of the images. The idea is interesting though!

what about just using an AOSP rom? you get 4.0, NO overlay (so faster), and there are already people working on it.
Sense
What about using other launchers, like GO and others?
IMO a monumental waste of good development time that can be better spent with ICS and soon to be JellyBean. We did everything we could to get rid of it on the Hero as fast as possible. We ported 3.5 and never looked back.
Just my 2 pennies. If someone did put the work into it. Kudos. But I sure am not going to.

Let's go super retro (relatively speaking) and get a home/launcher that's like TouchFLO on the Touch Diamond 2! I thought that was awesome when I had that phone.
Windows Mobile wasn't all bad.

Kinda agree with nineinch and drachen. If u really want to go that far back just use a senseless Rom. The android 1.5 and sense 1.0 is really such a step back that aosp should give u the speed your looking for and actually look better. And I am a huge sense fan saying this
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA

I've thought of this before, but in the end it's not really worth it. Sense 4 is really an improved sense 2.1.

You're basically asking for us to take body and engine off a Ferrari 458 and put them on a Toyota Corolla's chassis.
A) It's not that simple, B) You'd have a horrific time getting it to work and C) It most likely won't be a pleasant experience.

I've thought about pulling down the Donut branch from AOSP and testing it on these modern devices.
It was arguably the fastest Android flavor ever. I remember going to Eclair from Donut and feeling let down by the speed, requiring a faster processor.

I would do ANYTHING to get rid of this stupid sense ****, paranoid will be close enough. When I bought the phone I fully intended to eventually get rid of sense for aosp, I figured it would take a few months, but I severely underestimated the blind love many people seem to have for sense, anything else is like second tier to these people and they could never imagine why anyone would want anything other than sense, so it completely kills any progress.

PA (aosp) is awesome... CM is awesome... Sense is awesome... AOKP is awesome... Motoblur is crap... TouchWiz is crap... there you have it
(These are just in random order as I thought of them)
PA would be ok on our phones, there would be no point in using the PIE feature as we have capacitive buttons, but the independent DPI feature would be nice as well as the color scheme feature (I use PA on my nexus 7)

sorry about that but maybe you can push your source to github and there are chances that some other developer picks it up from there, or it may help other devs who are trying to port cm to the dna.

regardless of whether or not you like sense, insulting the community and the developers that enjoy the shipped oem skin is pointless.....and makes you look bad
if you really need an aosp rom, then buy a phone that already has it up and running, or a stock google phone
if the carrier you are on doesnt have a stock google phone there are generally other phones that at least have very stable aosp roms
fwiw, drew and chad have done great work on their aosp projects, so its not like there will never be anything worth using on this phone for it
theres always the option that you could learn android programming and development on your own and contribute back to the community rather than just complaining
I would also be interested in testing PA. Loved it on my Nexus, can't wait for it on the DNA
