more like they're practically diff EXCEPT for the CPU, BT hardware and LEDs
EDIT: not BT hardware... got confused with OP

Guys, it was released for the Magic 32A board. . . Magic also has 32B boards (which are the ones similar to the G1).

but im sure that there is a way to fix it.....

Doesn't share bluetooth. The maddening lack of a complete Sense UI continues indefinately...

There is. . . buy a Hero or a Magic 32A. The Hero on the G1 has always been slightly bugged, no matter how good it seems to run at first load. It all comes down to the G1 having 30+% less ram than the other devices. Apps2SD additionally seem to slow things down (which would explain the difference with how it runs between a G1 with 256 megs of ROM and a Magic 32B with 512 megs of ROM). To put it simple, unless somebody became the all powerful god of optimization and compression, it'll never run 100% flawless with 100% of the speed it should have. Hell, on devices it's meant for it still has the occasional challenges.
And ps to any mods out there, could we get this moved to the Q&A section?

nope,there's no rom ported from magic except myhero,but it's for 32a
now,every "magic rom 4 g1" is based off 3.03.707.3 test-keys, not real official 3.03.751.4 releas-keys.and some bad guy only change bulid.prop to .4..this's real a f*k phony way...

any news about official rom 2.1?,

any news about official rom 2.1?

nope.

Maybe they go 2.2

I don't know.
I think HTC don't develop any ROM's.
But we can develop some good ROM's.
Now we have to develop linux Debian .

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the interests you have with our product, the HTC Tattoo. I can understand how important it is to be able to fully utilize your device and be able to have the 2.1 Android Operating System.
Unfortunately, at this time there is no Update to the 2.1 Android Operating System Update. This Update will be sent to your device via email or text message when it is available.

Response I got from HTC.

In other words: this will never happen...
Let's see if FroYo really supports different screen resolutions...this would solve our problems in getting a decent upgrade...

Would HTC tattoo be able to run Froyo?

Oh where did you hear that possibility? That would be wonderful

Don't know anymore, but this information could just be another rumor, so be careful with spreading this info

no
i called the service desk, "highly unlikely" but htc is thinking about it

Just wait!
I heard about the HTC Wildfire with QVGA screen coming soon with 2.1 or later

Yeah...Tattoo and Wildfire have all the same exept wilds 384 ram and tattoos 256 and screen is bigger i think like desire's...but same in resolution and thats our hope )

Wildfire is to Desire what the HD Mini is to HD2.
It is smaller, less RAM, lower res screen, slower CPU.
Still looks like it will be a top notch device though!

Resolution is not the problem... that works... the problem is camera and BT... but this is different in wildfire so no go.

If I don't see either a custom 2.1 working ROM (by working I mean everything working), or a RUU for 2.x from HTC, it'll be curtains for my HTC Tattoo. (I'll still build AzusaROM though and test the ROM on it until it bricks).
I'm thinking of getting a Nexus One at the end of the year.

Yeah, I thought so too, because since the Nexus is a Google Phone the new Android versions will be compatible with this phone for a long period of time I assume...

Hope is the best medicine for this sort of situation... Lets see devs at xda are trying hard to get it sorted..

HTC Bee ROM Leaked!!

Hello guys!!
Today i've realised that HTC Bee has similar specs to our Tattoo (and Wildfire), so my question is that if we could port this ROM (Froyo with Sense) for our mobile.
I think Jacob was expecting this...is an WWE version, i think

it would be really great to have a fully working SenseFROYO for our "poor" tattoo.
I know you can crack it, anyway THANX and respect for willingness to give it a try!
keeping my fingers crossed m8
Vuk

The only similar things are CPU and screen resolution... good luck with that.

This gives me a little hope for having 2.2 with Sense

The fact that HTC Bee is CDMA doesnt make any difference?

Yes cant wait for 2.2 with Sense ain't nothing better than sense. Fingers X

Any update on the progress ???
Are these not official ROMS of Wildfire ?? Correct me if I am wrong

Yes,but the only with froyo is in chinese,because of this jacob didn't port that (he was waiting for the english/wwe release, easier to port)
I think that kiljacken said that he would help him with this port...we must wait and be patient,that's all!!

i got an old tattoo in my drawer, so im still visiting here sometimes
As you might notice, i ported SenseUI to a very different hardware platform, and i managed to get most of the new SenseFroyo running too on it, without kernel or new drivers .. and this was on a motorola milestone.
Im know, that porting a CDMA is just a matter of the libril drivers, as i did exactly the same for motorola droid(CDMA) to a milestone(GSM) , baseband was the least of the problems here. of course native linux drivers on lowlevel is very different, but android framework use exactly the same, as framework by default support both CDMA and GSM.
you want to port a HTC model to another HTC driven model, where the framework is actually created by the same manufactor and they work with pretty much same goals on different hardware platforms.
If i was trying to port htc bee to tattoo, i would only need hardware drivers, with default egl libs as you got no hw acc.. and you would have it running quite easily.
if just HTC is behind both models not using hardware accelerated graphics, i wouldnt second guess whether its possible, but more when it was done.
as long as graphics are included for the very low resolution on tattoo, it should be easier to port it.
but ok, im really no expert on htc models, but Desire and ACE ports i looked at, both didnt give me too much trouble except for the expected Bluetooth solution HTC uses with broadcom drivers, which motorola did not work with so easily :-(
anyways just my input on porting...

whats the problem with having CPU and resolution in place?
having CPU , is very important for the porting to take place, without recompiling.
so its not a matter of luck!
lastly, please do note my sig, i got SenseUI on Milestone, would you say "good luck", if i did not advertise its existence?

I know this for us is free, and we can not complain at all, but I would like to know if someone is going to work on this ROM ... it would be wonderful! I think this is an important goal (aside from the camera and radio) and some developers you could collaborate and make SenseFroYo see the light ... we would be eternally grateful! For my part, I don't have much knowledge developing, but could help in anything else if you like ...
many thanks to all who make possible XDA

[Q] [REQUEST] HTC Legend Sense 2.0 - Desire HD ROM Port

Hello guys.
I'm currently using HTC Legend and I'm pretty sure it's the best phone I ever had.
But yesterday I met HTC Desire HD. Design of this phone is poor, but... ROM is excellent! Sense 2.0, a bunch of new interesting and useful apps..
So, let's see pros & cons:
- We already have DHD Rom ported to Desire +;
- We have all drivers for legend, based on 2.1 (As I know, there are no 2.2 drivers shared on the internet) +;
- I think there will be a ****load of issues due to incompatible screen resolution on Legend -;
- Perfomance issues. 600mhz 384mb versus 1ghz and 512mb. -;
So... Maybe, it's time to start porting?

As far as I know the DHD ROM ported to Desire is not fully functional and still has issues. Having in mind that and the fact that the Desire is much more closer to DHD hardware-wise, I think it won't be possible to have the Sense 2.0 ROM ported for the Legend any time soon.

I have an access to Desire and I intalled DHD ROM on it about a week ago. It's pretty fast, the only one bug I found is not working camera.
Also, hardware does not make any sense, because there are drivers and, I'm sure, it's really easy to replace drivers in DHD ROM (As I said, we have Legend drivers).

"Not working camera" is really serious issue I think! DHD and Desire both have ARM v7 CPUs, Legend has ARM v6 CPU... quite different architectures.

Oh wow... I forgot about cpus.
But... I can't believe it's so hard to port DHD ROM to legend -____- People porting Android 2.3 on WM6.5 device (HD2) now, even if it doesn't make any sense.

just hope it is possible...loved DHD Sense ROm on HD2.....

Maybe it's possible but I doubt if any of the skilled Legend devs will spend time on that...

Android 2.3 AOSP is open source, HTC Sense is closed source. That means you have to rebuild everything, especially the graphics and CPU.

hmmm...then 2.3 then..

The HTC Wildfire 2 has been spotted! Since it looks like having a 3.2 inch HGVA screen like our Legend, would it be possible to port this ROM to our Legends?
Here's the link: http://www.unwiredview.com/2011/02/14/htc-wildfire-2-also-given-first-press-shot/
I know it hasn't even been officially announced yet, but does it seem plausible? I've always thought the reason we couldn't port HTC Sense 2.0 was because the Desire HD / Desire Z had a different resolution screen to the Legend? I know when the Legend came out its 2.1 ROM was ported to the Hero, so I wonder if this will be possible...
We'll only know if and when it is officially released though. Just a thought.

Sense 2.0 was buggy on the DHD I had one on release and a lot of the features worked only when they wanted to.

In that case I hope a Wildfire 2 is released! The only issue I can think about is the potential lack of a trackball, but that didn't stop the DHD ROM being ported to the original Desire, so...
This is all speculation at the moment anyway until we find out tomorrow whether the Wildfire 2 is real or not at the MWC.

http://www.techradar.com/news/phone...brings-android-gingerbread-on-a-budget-928653
It's official! The specs look very similar to the Legend - 600mhz processor, same screen, etc.

Now we are waiting for leaked ROM. Maybe we will have 2.3 with Sense 2 soon...

Oh yess, it's comin. When will this new wildfire be released?

HTC Camera

Hi to all
i'm using MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.5 ROM
and trying to install the HTC Camera from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10546829&postcount=125
but it doesn't work...
can someone help me please???

I did exactly some thing along with library files, but it doesnt worked. I installed it and restarted the mobile and it stucked at htc hd2 boot screen image. Wait for Mdj to have this in the build. But only possible if we all request him!

i've posted this in the rom thread there was some response from ppl who want this too but havn't heard from MDJ yet...
don't know what to do this is the only rom that works good for me exept WM
and WP7 is out of the quastion cause it's still lack of good hebrew support and a good gps software
so android it is....
hopfully more ppl will ask for it and mabe in the next realese we all will have the HTC Camera unless there is another way to make it work wich i would very like to know!!

You can't install HTC Sense applications on non-Sense ROMs because the apps require an underlying Sense framework, which is not open source and has not/cannot be ported - I doubt MDJ is focusing on this. Same reason you can't use Sense widgets on non-sense ROMs. Gist of it is it that if you want Sense anything (Except that one keyboard port), use Sense. Else use Vignette or Camera 360.
Has been asked many times over, might be worth searching before posting next time.

Sorry Guys,
This Cam don't work on Gingerbread.
It needs the HTC Framework, Sense and some other files.
Maybe if in Future comes an Gingerbread with Senes it works.
