ok so some kind of 8 hours in. bt is lost. the tethering it says it has doesn't work. i had to do a factory reset on it like 3 times before the wifi would work but once it worked it worked. PayPal downloads and installs just fine. oh.. and Google Voice app works finally, it wasn't working on the fender stock rom. Also if you take your headphones out while listening to music you'll crash the last.fm app which is kinda funny.

So there's only like 3 bad things about this rom.

1 Tethering doesn't work.

which really isn't anything lost or gain seeing the fender stock rom doesn't have tethering.

2 Bluetooth is shot to hell.

It just doesn't work. Infect if you enable it it'll crash auto restart the system after 20 mins.

3) there is no youtube app. ;_;....

But good things are you get 2.1! which is kinda sweet as a bunch of the market apps don't crash as much as they do on 1.6.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I can confirm this. I can't get connected to anything. Close though. I'm sure it's a simple fix (hopefully).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
So what needs to be modified to port a rom for these devices?

Drivers? (which ones)

Kernel?

Etc...?

So far I've tried Stokes, SuperD, and KingKlick.

Stokes was very slow, SuperD wouldn't connect and KingKlick was even slower than Stokes. I haven't messed with them too much.

Are all these roms A2SD ready? Because I still don't get /system/sd on #mount

Perhaps it's because I have ext4 partition?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Aeikozz:
this is weird...okay while shopping the marketplace i notice i didn't have barcode scanner installed. well i searched the marketplace and it doesn't see it. it also doesn't see the pkt auction selling program either. now those programs aren't special are they? why is it it's not seeing those programs?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] civicsi89:
It would be nice to have this rom working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
This whole thread is one big tease. Angio, since you won't be working on these ports anymore can you release the source of the drivers you ported to get the touch screen and 3.5mm jack working?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SDRaver:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shawn1224:
Got stokes eclair loaded up and I love it. Thanks for getting a noob like me up & running.

Does anyone know where I can find the stock live wallpapers that comes with the Nexus?

I found seeds of life on market but that's it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SDRaver:
themes.. section

market°
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
These are quick ports nothing should work and if. It does well that's nice

Anyone c can these roms and fix it or use it for your own mod enjoy!!!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Are you by any chance least sharing the information with other moders on how you got the touch screen drivers and so forth?

PS: I look forward to your eclair stock and/or sense 2.1 release for the MT3G LE.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
Please, Share your info with how you ported them with cyan, WES ad ctso. Wes has been trying to help and I know it was frustrating him a bit.

Thanks for this.

I'm starting to smell trolls.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
What do trolls smell like? :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
can I ask, what is a troll and who are you implying it too?

...............just wondering :)

edit: FIXED
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
I think you mean who is he 'implying' being a troll. (hopefully not you... you did pretty much as you said.)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
Oh how I hope you arent implying I am a troll. Considering I am the one who figured out out to root these things for you people without so much as a thank you.

I was merely pointing out that others have had problems getting a working rom going and was wondering if he could share.

I swear.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
thank you for pointing that out sorry....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
you sir are not a troll....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I would just like to know why there is only one person that knows how to apply and port other roms to the MytouchLE with working touchscreen.

A few people have asked for the HOWTO and as far as I know it still hasn't been given.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SDRaver:
We only want to help :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
we may have to have roms built from scratch with al new kernels, you never know. But, its weird at how slow the ones here that do boot, run. I tried 4 in a 20 min period and went back to my stock themed rom

But im hoping this 2.1 sense hes going for now works out. that would be great
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Exactly. I thought that XDA-Developers was a community of Open Source.

So far the means to port a rom for the MyTouch Fender/1.2 is still a mystery yet ROMs have been successfully developed by just one person. All that I'm asking (like many others) is the means to do so.

Let's put it this way... if the OP had stated that he was able to successfully port these ROMs yet didn't post them, would be believe him? Of course not!

I'm grateful that so much has been done and I REALLY want to see this go further but to do that we need to share our knowledge. That's my opinion though. But what do I know.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mc900fttommy:
apn

quick question.. i have a rooted mytouch with the stock fender rom, and i noticed in the ACR_MYTOUCHLE rom in this thread it's described as stock fender rom with "added huge apns list (from cyanogen)". i searched but couldn't find a clear explanation of what this would do. basically i'm trying to decide if it's something worth wiping the phone and installing that rom or is it not going to make much of a difference?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] civicsi89:
Nothing differnt really
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bettasplash:
I can't believe there is still no good working rom for this phone. Wish i had the know how to help. Starting to wonder if it was worth rooting this phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SDRaver:
dude STFU!!

baby eagles are thrown off the nest and half way down the tree they learn to fly.

mom did her job..

your like an overgrown harry baby eagle waiting for the worm to be put in your mouth.. STFU ask google and develop´something. instead of wasting stupid posts...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bettasplash:
You need to grow up little man.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
so master, your post was perfectly acceptable?

I swear some of you are still dropped on your head.

This is why the OP stopped messing with this, none of you are grateful

Oh, waisting would imply a persons waist by the way.. your looking for Wasting ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I'm still awaiting information on how to port ROMs to make it compatible with MyTouch1.2 like other eclair roms, cyanogen roms, etc.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] C0dy:
I have a feeling we're having our chain yanked.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Someone knows how to do it because it's been done but the OP is not cooperating on sharing this information. If I was an admin this thread would have been locked days ago and the OP would have been issued a warning and possibly even banned. If you look at his previous posts (history if you will) you will not see anything regarding a previous development. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt though. Perhaps he's from another forum... but like most, I'm beginning to become impatient. I've been around XDA for a while and I'm pretty good at spotting frauds. Anyone that had genuinely found a solution to a problem would not and should not keep it to themselves. What if someone was to say that they had found a solution to the unbricking phones and did not share the solution. What do you think would happen to that person? Of course this isn't anywhere near as severe but it all has to do with sharing of information which no one has bothered to do yet. XDA has always strived to be a forum or resource and knowledge NOT of selfishness and secrets. If the OP doesn't release his sources then I think he should find another forum to discourage. Again... my own opinion.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Angio responded via Twitter to someone in this thread as opposed to posting on here, not sure why but he did. To port you have to take use the boot.img from the Fender ROM (which includes the proper drivers). It doesn't work with every ROM and this is by no means a solution, it's just how these "ports" were done. Until HTC releases their source code, we're pretty much stuck with themes and broken ports.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
you dont need the source code, compiling a kernel is easy, just need to know what your doing or get lucky.

anyways use the kernel from the fender boot.img and a different ramdisk with some build edits, repack it and there your good.

easy as 1, 2, 3 i cant explain anymore clearer unless i teach you all step by step, which i have no time for.

but if anyone needs help just ask on twitter ill be glad to help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
well its not hard to figure out how to do anything with a boot.img just has some knowledge of linux there is many guides on how to repacka boot.img and edit it etc...

im sure if you tried to actually work on a boot.img and not complain you would have gotten far

and that goes for everyone asking how to get the touch screen=0 to touchscreen=1

:P

sorry if it sounds harsh, i dont want anyone to take this the wrong way, just my 2 cents.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
lol.. Its not really a matter of touchsreen=0 to =1 is it? lol

Wes and Ctso have been working on this for me for weeks and are unable to get the fender kernel incorporated into either Super D, Open eclair or even a Wg build. Basicly if it has a custom kernel, its not gonna happen, but if it has a base kernel, we can do something.

Try flashing the fender boot.img through ADB in recovery on 1.6 roms and a couple 2.1 roms that are not based off Open eclair.

Angio, if you could please get in touch with wes and let him know the other factors you had to change for these to even boot it would be greatly appreciated. I mean, we are getting the 2.1 update here very soon, but it would be nice to have a choice. I appreciate you taking the time to do this Angio, you have made some prgress for us here. Are you still working on that sense 2.1 build? if so Ill test via twitter.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
The first thing that I did was try to flash the Fender boot.img onto a Cyanogen ROM. Needless to say that it didn't work.

If it was as easy as he said it is =0 to =1 then we wouldn't be going through this. I was under the impression that it was a drivers issue PLUS the kernel. But if it's just a matter of changing a few things in the boot.img file then it shouldn't be too difficult to implement it any any other rom... in theory that is. I just want to use 4.2.15.1 and my custom theme on my Mytouch. I've had my phone over a month now and I'm slightly dissappointed that I still don't have it. Yet we have at least one person with the knowledge on how to do it and it's been over a week of flaunting his knowledge with absolutely no explaination of how to do it. Sure we got a hint "=0 to =1" but that certainly can't be all there is to it. We have dozens of people still trying to figure this out but Angio has the answer. If the information would have been shared a week ago, how much more would we have accomplished? Some of the ported roms don't work right and I understand that they are experimental, but even Cyanogen has people helping him with his roms. If we all pitched in (or at least those that are capable) then we could get a lot further in the development yet we are still stuck here with stock rom and a couple unstable and incomplete ports. And I'm sorry but it's a bit frustrating because sometimes it seems like we need to interrogate people like this to finally get the answers that we need to achieve any progress. Look Angio, I really appreciate the ports and I'm sure that you're putting a lot of hard work into this but it would go alot smoother if we knew what you were doing. It's not like you're patenting anything, right? I know that I sound bitter and unappreciative but I'm not. I'm using one of the ported roms because it's better than stock in my opinion. But I simply request, yet again, to reveal your methods. I've unpacked and looked into the boot.img and with each attempt to flash nothing has worked. If you have the key the achieve a goal in which we all are trying to reach... it's time to take your ass to Walmart and make duplicates damn it! :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
I love this speech, i will let you know when i get some free time, @cry yes i am still working on sense also motoblur now ill release tonight for some help the blur..........................................
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Can't wait, thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Thanks for your understanding. I know that I must sound like an a$$h0le but that's just because I can be. LOL. But in all seriousness if you lack the time to do something like write up a HOWTO then at least get us started and other wise developers will finish the rest. We just need to be pointed in the right direction. Make another thread if you must and you'll be famous! Hell... even I will donate to the cause! I spent four hours last night trying to make it work and I was so frustrated I just turned off the computer. So say you spend 4 hours making a Sense 2.1 rom. How do you know that it won't take someone with the right knowledge half the time to make one? Or if you had making your rom(s) you can get twice done in half the time. It's how I'm looking at it anyway and I that you understand. I (and we) appreciate the time, dedication, and effort that you have put into this.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
I understand, will do my best to help.

edit: and you dont sound like an a-hole.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AngioNicholai:
lol maybe.... if you wanted to sound like an a-hole you should have said "hey angio release the source you f@g." (insulting = a-hole) you didnt really insult me. :)

I got a 1.2 MT3G black and id really like a decent port for it aswell.... Anyone got a working port or got stokes working without ram hack?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I managed to get stokes working. There are a few things that don't work though.

Swap need to be started manually

3D and Live wallpapers

Launcher2

Videos

No Compcache

busybox needs to be used to use commands (example: #busybox free instead of #free)

Wifi (easy to patch though)

Bluetooth
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I received the notice. Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
alright...

hey angio release the source you f@g.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I was thinking... since SuperD is based off of Cyanogen's kernel for 1.6 roms and Angio was successful in porting SuperD... wouldn't the SuperD modified kernel work for Cyanogen's 1.6 roms?

Just for the hell of it I'm going to use the boot.img and place it in 4.2.15.1 and see if it works. I'll report back.

edit: nope. didn't work. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ryanoption:
I noticed Binary you said the live wallpapers won't work for ya?There was a guy on andriodforums.com who was using the stokes eclair on mytouch 1.2 and his live wallpapers were working...posted a pretty cool vid looks sweet!!

http://androidforums.com/all-things...mytouch3g-1-2-fender-le-needs.html#post429307

He's got lil spermies flyin all over the screen!?I didn't even notice that until right now hahaha!Kinda weird...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
You would need to split the boot.img to seperate the kernel and ramdisk.

Cyanogem ROMs need a Cyanogen ramdisk.

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Unpack,_Edit,_and_Re-Pack_Boot_Images
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Just did that about an hour ago. I unpacked the Cyanogen 4.2.15.1 ramdisk and the Fender stock ramdisk and was comparing them. I don't need to do anything with the boot.img-kernel file do I?

I only have time to do this at work on a VM Machine so it's a bit annoying, inconvenient and frustrating. I'm going to give it another try again tonight.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
When I was using Stokes (with wifi fix) live wallpaper worked but only one I had on my phone was starfield. I was also able to play videos without a fuss.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] C0dy:
I hope the Sense 2.1 ROM is released soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tdf666:
Yea I'm hoping that we get some Rome soon. I had a regular mytouch but this past Monday I wrecked my truck and lost it. I have insurance but they had to send me the 1.2. So I went from rooted running htcclays fasttest to stock unrooted. Ill probably sell it if nothing happens soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ensane:
Let me know how that Cyanogen works out Binary100100....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Didn't work.

It keeps rebooting itself after the HTC Magic screen.

I can't even get a logcat to come up. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
That's right. But some LiveWallpapers from Market will not work.

I also pushed the Livewallpapers from another Eclair rom and although they show up they won't work (like Nexus). Youtube will also not work as well as the Video app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sickkick:
I confirmed yesterday with T-mobile that the Android 2.1 will be out by the end of this month or the 1st of next month. So in the next week or so anyone who want the T-mobile android 2.1 should flash back to the stock mytouch fender Rom. And it will be an over the air update.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ryanoption:
Will the update be optional?If we do update do we lose root access?Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
I'm skeptical.

Hi People, I just discovered this thread and realised there are a lot of people using a port of my rom ... seems with a lot of things broken though ...

I will compare the port to my original and see if it can be improved, and what was changed to enable it to work on the myTouch 1.2.

btw my rom does not have the kernel ram hack... not sure about the ported version yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Thanks st0kes!

The ported version does not currently have the ram hack.

In fact... we are still waiting for Angio to release information on just how he managed to get it onto the MyTouch 1.2 to begin with. Ah hem!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] civicsi89:
This is good news.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
The biggest problem is that HTC hasn't released their kernel source for the new devices yet. They are, in fact, in violation of the GPL!

I suggest EVERYONE goes here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/e-mail and sends HTC a formal email request asking them to release the kernel source for the MyTouch Fender LE and MyTouch 3.5mm Jack as is required by the GPL.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dstauth:
Just sent off an email. If we get enough people doing this, maybe we can get some action. I see the Cyanogenmod guy responded to our issue on the google code site, so messages and emails do indeed work :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Strange response from HTC, they obviously are confused:

Of course it's HTC's responsibility and the original MyTouch kernel source is on developer.htc.com as the Magic. Ugh.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dstauth:
Their response:

I can see how this would be important for you. We have received no information as to when this will be available. We have been informed that it is to be released by Google and not HTC. You may want to try contacting Google to see if they have any more information.

I got another response:

It IS different right?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
And their final response:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Course its different, otherwise a 32A Magic Rom would work, but alas doing so means no touchscreen and god knows what else (mainly cuz most people couldn't get past the setup lol).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
The ram hack was assumed, because games on it were incredibly slow, and no one could provide me with a means to verify that the hack was applied or not, course seeing as the source is unknown it could simply be a case of no GPU drivers for LE/1.2
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceas909:
Ive been looking around in Android Open Souce Project and I see the changes HTC has summited for the 3.5 mm jack and new touch screen.. If im right then someone just needs to compile a kernel from aosp.. I have no idea how too but im trying to get one complied... BUT IF SOMEONE WITH EXPERIENCE WITH COMPILING FROM SOURCE COULD STEP FORWARD AND BUILD A KERNEL then we might be able to see some progress.
