Hi,

I know there was done some work on dualbooting the HTC Dream, enabling you to launch a different OS of the SD card.

What exactly is needed to accomplish this? And was the methods used able to load a different kernel alltogether, or just lanch another useland using the kernel from your current ROM?

I have both a Dream and a Desire, and would like to try and get Meego running on one of them. (Maybe finding my way on the Dream, which is not my primary phone anymore, and then on the Desire when I have figured it a bit more out.)

MeGo uses the 2.6.34 kernel, which I believe several Froyo ROMS use too.

The first thing I will do, is to try to run it with minimal modification to the kernel found in an existing Dream ROM, o avoid adapting the Meego kernel to support the neccessary hardware, as the ARM-release is made especially for the N900, and probably doesn't have that wide a hardware support.

But where would I change the kernel to boot? I guess it is not really possible to modiy the bootloader in the device directly (uboot sure would be nice :P), so I guess it has to be done in initramfs or similar? Not really familiar with how phones do this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] filand290:
thats wt i wanted to try on my cliq too! Do u have the rom for meego?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] naguz:
There is no ROM of MeeGo, which is why i need to load kernel/userland from SD card. I have asked for the ARM-release of MeeGo here, but the reply wanæt very helpfull.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] shadowpocalypse:
Hi, I've recently been playing around with my gf's HTC EVO 4G. The other day she installed flash 10.1 from AuxLV's post:

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6569529&postcount=16

I curiously visited sites to see if video would work. To my amazement, veoh, myspace, wisevid, tnt.tv(Leverage), and many other flash videos work. I noticed people have had mixed results but I believe I've narrowed down the issues people have been having to, quite hilariously, a simple fix.

When you go to a site, for example veoh, and you click on a video. It looks like the video is about to come up but nothing happens. All you have to do is actually *click* on the video again and it will start playing.

Lol... so there it is... people haven't been "clicking" on the videos. Maybe out of fear that that tapping the video while it's loading would upset the delicate space-time continuum that holds the fabric of the universe together and make the video not come up, lol. Idk, but there you have it folks, start your *clicking*, and havezzza funs.

Oh also, I have used the dolphin browser hd and I think I clicked on the play button as well as the actual center of the videos. It'll look like a white box of nothing but when I tap the video it starts playing in magnificent quality. Good luck!

[Legend Android Development] nafnist:
Sounds good. Ill try it out.

update:

So far no issues. Everything seem to work, and Ive installed several apps without issues.

TBH Ive uninstalled the app; Quick System Info, but this ROM will replace my current Official_rooted.

So thank you very much indeed

Spred hygge ;-)
[Legend Android Development] casca:
looks nice mate, and you included the most needed apps.

nice work!
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Working on rev0.2

This morning I have just made a small change.. (rev0.2) Havent had time to test it myself yet..

I moved ALL application from system/app to data/app..

In this way one should be able to delete ANY app.

Also Rom Manager is updated to latest version..

and Estrong FileManager is includded (I thought this to be the best since it has also build in FTP-support)

Coming up soon..
[Legend Android Development] casca:
nice, is your version a2sd or a2sd+ ?

If you don't mind an opinion...there is now available an unlock mode with the optical trackball button, could be handy to include it in your rom.
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hehe.. that's a very good question..

For now I believe it to be a2sd (the one available in the Kitchen at the moment -- I will look in to difference between a2sd and a2sd+ really soon..

Futher planning is to include the unlock mode for optical trackball and also the batteri circle.. But I am at work right now and the rest of the day I'm celebreting my sons birthday... so moving on tomorrow with next rev.. :)
[Legend Android Development] casca:
The battery circle mod, shouldn't give you any trouble :)
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hehe.. I hope not that the trackball mod will either ;)
[Legend Android Development] casca:
I forgot my usb cable today...but from i what i've read...reeeeeally easy to enable the trackball mod...lol
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
I'll try it when I get home.. and the kid is sent to bed.. (Only have my computer at home set up for kitchen )
[Legend Android Development] efex:
Didn't work too good for me. installed with 32/512MB, Sense loads (after asking whitch launher to start, I can choose Sense or 2x Setup). after, a loop of FC on Sense, can't do anything else but power off... :/
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Thanx for info.. as mentioned I haven't had the time to test the Rev 0.2 myself yet (Guessing that it is rev 2 you have installed)

I have to guess that it must be because some apps can NOT be removed from system/app.. I'll check up on that asap. Until that rev. 2 link has been removed.
[Legend Android Development] gregnapola:
Hi, and first many many many tnx for your work! :D

I've just flashed 0.2 rev but after 15' all I have is a boot loop with a blinking Android on the screen.... All wipe options were performed. Now I'm trying the 0.1.... :)
[Legend Android Development] efex:
Yes, you are correct, rev0.2. Seems I'm not the only one with the problem (the poster above seems to have the same). hope you can sort it out :)
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
The rev 01 should be working.. :)
[Legend Android Development] gregnapola:
DONE, it boots w/o problems ... ;)
[Legend Android Development] Qliratu:
Same isue here, strange recovery icon (android arrow out of box) and then a blinking android bootloop.
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
The error is in rev 0.2 which I have currently removed. Please download rev 0.1 - should be working.. Currently no issues/bugs have been found with rev 0.1
[Legend Android Development] lollazzo:
i'm a noob, To install this rom i need a rooted legend?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
That is correct, yes..
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
is the v0.3 like stock but with a2sd? cause that's what i'm looking for

Edit: seen it's like stock but without teeter and stoks anyone knows where i can get them from?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Tether you can find in Market.. Stock I can upload so you can download the .apk's and install....
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
and is class 2 16gb ok ?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
I have used a Class 2 - 4 GB.. So your card should do..
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Great! thanks i'll try your rom later on, if you can post tether and stocks apk that would be great.. can't find tether on market
[Legend Android Development] Bibu94:
Hi! Your rom is a very good one and i have been using it for a very long time. But automatic brightness seem to not be working. Is there anyway you would fix that?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
I'll see what I can do :)
[Legend Android Development] Bibu94:
Any progress?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Brightness Level

Not yet.. But still working.. Will update the post once done.. :)

Okay... Here is the best and easiest solution..

Go to Market -> Search "brightness" -> install "Brightness Level" ..

Place widget on screen.. Select AUTO... Works for me.... :)
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
does a2sd use a lot of battery? because the battery usage is really high compared to the stock rom. Apart from that i'm really liking your rom. if you could you post the stocks apk it would be perfect
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
a2sd should not use more battery than non a2sd.. It just tells the system to store on the SD instead og Phone Memory...

The stock apk can be downloaded here... Posted elsewhere in this forum - that is why I did not upload them myself..

Just download this and install the apk missing.. :)
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Thank-you very much.
[Legend Android Development] Jstyants:
I have tried countless ROMS, THIS is the one for me! , wanted it simple without majorly changing the basic real one, thanks alot!
[Legend Android Development] nonamo:
Themes

I love this ROM, however:

It says it is deodexed which means we can change themes, correct?

But i have tried installing several themes from the android theme forum, with no luck. And metamorph doesnt seem to work either.

Please advise, im bored of the standard notification bar, dialer, etc
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
You'll just need to install what you like then .. If dialer one then install and set as default.. if you like to remove some apps then read thread on how to remove system apps... what theme are you trying to install??
[Legend Android Development] mr.antooan:
nice job :)

How about arabic or persian support in this rom ?

can you do anything with arabic support ?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi mr.antooan

I'm not really sure on how to add new languages..

BUT... however.. If I can find a STOCK arabic rom I would gladly make a special-edition of rev03 build on the arabic rom..

I'll see what I can do.. Just don't expect a release within the next couple of days (am very busy both at work and a home at the moment)

but 1-2 weeks... I hope.. :)
[Legend Android Development] mr.antooan:
tnx bro :)

here is a official HTC arabic rom for middle east :

Venlig Hilsen Søren
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi..

Please keep everything in this forum in English for everyone to understand..

If it is possible to root an official 2.03 rom.. No, unfortunately not.. BUT.

You can find a thread on how to downgrade to 1.31 which you can then root.. :)
[Legend Android Development] rikes01:
First of all, thank you very much.

I'm just dealing with a problem. I can't seem to get the a2sd working. I've partitioned my sd-card the right way (I have checked it). Quick system info gives me information about free space on a2sd (422mb) so I guess my phone can see the a2sd partition. But still whenever I install an app only the internal memory will decrease.

greetings Rick
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi Rick..

I'll have to look in to this and get back to you.. Don't have an answer to this right now..
[Legend Android Development] afby:
Good job whitetigerdk :) Love your rom ! (a2sd s*cks =) )
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
Sure this is rooted? Can't get LED flash or the market enabler to work :s

Edit: even the superuser app stays black when I try to open it :(

Any thoughts what I could have done wrong? I did wipe data/factory reset before flashing new rom.
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Thanx..
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
It is rooted.. that's for sure.
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
Ohh well probably me doing something wrong :p

Is it normal that the superuser app stays black? I mean do you need to install something to get that app to work? sorry for being a real noob

And is there anyone who knows a LED flash that works on this rom?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
It has to stay black.. until you use a program that requires root access.. when you then use the app you will se a list of programs that has been granted root access..
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
ohh k, sorry for being such a noob. thx for the quick reply and nice rom (my batterylife is much better too)
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Lamppu should do the work for you ;)
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
Do I need to accept something in order to make it work?

I've tried it but it doesn't work.

EDIT: Dno what was wrong, but I cleared every cache, reflashed and now it works :D :D !!!!

THANK YOU for the explanation and I truly love your rom, is there any way to donate?
[Legend Android Development] rikes01:
I think the ROM is excellent, although I have found a minor bug. After a couple of days multi-touch doesn't seem to work anymore. After a reboot it works again. Not a big issue, but I thought I would tell you
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
any way I can get the bootscreen back to the android robot without having to reflash the whole thing? I changed my bootscreen to boing boot (you can find it here)

but that made my boottime much longer so I would like to chance it back to the robot, but I can't seem to find it on the xda forums
[Legend Android Development] Learners Lisence:
Greetings whitetiger,

Ref:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7983387

I looked in to enquire if there were any chances you would be incorporating this (please refer link posted above) idea/mod into future releases of your ROMs so that the Legend Community could partake of your wisdom and quidance in implementing a great option to perform an alternative to nandroid backup ?

Please do so and give us the opportunity to be a part of your great REVolution.

Thanks in advance.;)

update 0.3 question

uphow do i know that it works ap2sd?

When i install apps the internal storage free space is decressed too .
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
How do I update the maps app on this rom? When I try to do it through the market it tells me install failed application not signed properly (or something like that). Tried to uninstall maps with titanium backup but I doesn't help... any ideas?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi guys...

Have been away from this thread a while.. But now I'm back...

Later today I will reply most posts asking questions...
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Nope.. No where to donate.. I'm not doing this for my own winning.. I do this for the ROM to build it the way I would like the Legend to be (/How HTC should have made it the first place) If someone else likes my stuff.. I'm happy.. And that's enough for me ;)

Thanx.. Didn't experience this myself.. Only way I can do something about this is if the same situation shows up on my own device..

I'll post a link to a zip you can install very soon....

That is in fact in the plan for rev 4 ;)

The use of a2sd and not a2sd+ is causing the Dalwik Cache to remain in the phone memory.. every once in a while boot in recovery and clear cache.. That should do the trick :)

Actually no idea.. Have seen that Maps is now updated to version 4.5 .. Having the same problem from my rev 2 to rev 3 (which is why rev 3 had Maps 4.4 preinstalled) I will however in rev 4 remove Maps from the rom to avoid similar problems.. this way.. You install it yourself and therefor should be able to update as well :)

By the way folks.. I have just switched from Windows to OS X which is why I have been away for a little while... Need to have set the mac up for building roms and that will cause som waiting time for rev 4...
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Managed to uninstall maps with the system app method of modaco but after that there is no way of installing the new version.. tried with adb, with market and with the update zip method but none install maps. Any ideas?
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
maybe try google apps 2.2 from the azure ROM?

EDIT: THIS DOES NOT WORK!!! it was just an idea it has been tested and just messed everything up.
[Legend Android Development] yanlong94:
i downloaded your Rev 0.3 '(Maps pre-updated to 4.4.0)' the one that does not shows NO A2SD.

But i cant seem to find a2sd anywhere, please help me guys thanks!:)
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
The A2SD can not be "found"...

It'll just install the apps you install to the ext partition on the SD...

There is not an App Called A2SD on the phone.. it's all in the system files.
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Tried that, maps got installed but didn't work and messed up everything else, like market and gtalk...so I had to restore.
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
whoops srry for that then, luckely you had a backup.
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
No worries. Everyone who is playing with anything on the system should make a nandroid backup fist.:)
[Legend Android Development] casca:
wasup guys!

just rooted a friends legend, and have tried mdj L.03 rom, how is yours?i'm thinking of installing it also to check :)

any known issues or bugs i should care about?

cheers mate!
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
yeah only I don't know how :s I've seen some topics but they look really confusing how did you learn how to do it?

EDIT: looks like its not that hard at all was looking in wrong threats I guess
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
I use rommanager for nandroid, but sometimes I need titanium backup too just in case I need to do a wipe
[Legend Android Development] renotm:
Hello,

Thanks a lot for this nice ROM. It is exactly my need.

But, is there a workaround to update google maps without the package signature issue? I tried to uninstall maps but it does not works :(

BR
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi.. yeah..

Rev4 will be up shortly .. It will not have Maps preinstalled.. so you can install latest yourself and update it ;)
[Legend Android Development] JonasDroid:
Have you uninstalled them succesfully? or did the uninstal failed?
[Legend Android Development] ebbox:
Sounds great - Looking forward for Rev4
[Legend Android Development] Kwen:
Same here, trying out Azure meanwhile but I'm not sure if I can live without the HTC/Sense stuffs
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Can't wait for rev04 I gave up on updating maps myself. Your rom is currently the best for me.
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Is a little delayed.. water through the ceiling and my son is in surgery today..

I had loaded my legend on this "Rev 0.3 (Maps pre-updated to 4.4.0)" ROM and the loading process is successful.

But when I search for the apps, some of the following apps are missing:

- BusyBox

- Apps2SD

- Wireless Tethering

- Rom Manager

- Quick System Info

- XDA-developers

Please advise if I had done anything wrong. Thx!
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Hi,

If you read post #2 you will see the changelog.. All preinstalled apps removed - install what you like yourself.. They are all available from Market..
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:

[Legend Android Development] istvans:
Hi!

If I'd like to update the software from Rev 03 to Rev 04, I need to wipe all settings/ paririons, or just simple do upgrade?
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
You should be able to upgrade without wipe..

However notice that it is the a2sd version.. non-a2sd version is to, follow..
[Legend Android Development] istvans:
I updated the phone, everything was successful, but I dont have wifi! It seems: unable to start wifi!

What is this??? How can I repair?

What it is? Well.. This might actually be a bug...

I dunno how you can repair, but I will look into the problem and hopefully fix the bug.. ;)
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:

I downgraded the phone to the Rev 0.3, and everything is OK!

Otherwise, thank you for this ROM, I think this is the best of them all! :)

I guess one can go into recovery and get rid of the GMap apk and have it removed/uninstalled in order to load the one from the market
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Tried that but for some season once you uninstalled it the one from market won't install...
[Legend Android Development] Kwen:
You really rm'ed the apk in recovery mode?

I guess the other option is an update.zip of Maps 4.5 and flash it in recovery
[Legend Android Development] xxxhxxx2001:
Yep tried that too...result ...nothing happened and no maps. Used the zip that is supposed to install protected apps..no luck
