[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Dexter had to resize for this port i think?
[Defy Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i did :-)

this is not the case on sense3.0 as its using different graphics handling and its using a much newer kernel and different hardware + much more ram.. there will be no 3.0 port for sure on 512MB devices..
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Any ideas on our problems on previous pages dex? I have tried doing a diff and merging different files with nordic release and can't boot.

Any way at all to boot it using anything other than chinese boot?
[Defy Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
of course, the lib/modules needs to be copied, otherwise it cannot load modem drivers and it will reboot.. so make sure you got all .ko modules copied..

using adb , check what the log says during bootup..

i try to create an boot.img from nordic rom, I'm tryed to compiled, tested and now how to convert in z.image?(for tested to flashable in my defy) if it needed....

If you split the boot img doesn't it give you the zimage as that is just the kernel only and not other boot parts?

hello guys

As i explained recently to fabianowerner, when he asked me, if I could try to carry out this work, I accepted but i told him that at this levels of modding I had never worked, so I tried to see how it goes ....

I'm learning a lot here, on xda, because there are guides of all kinds ....

I would like to take this project forward, but I need the help of someone more expert to solve some problems .. dexter follows other work and can not answer me correctly,

seriously there is someone, else feel like helping, and having a minimum knowledge of modding to help me?

thanks in advance

can we do something with the new gingerbread release ???
[Defy Android Development] Antszej:
If there is not gb kernel, we cant port anything new than sense 2.1 on froyo... if there would be gb kernel, we can start to port 3.0 or newer 2.1
[Defy Android Development] bbeni:
hmm, MIUI based on Quarx CM7,

not possible building Sense version based on CM7?

I think Quarx help with source codes to this project.

Update:

i finded one ROM with CM7 and Sense, i think not impossible...
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Maybe someone could port Gingersense to the Gingerbread leak... but hey, First we need working sense froyo or gingerbread, thats not nessesary. We need a useable sense ROM and we all thank iaio72 for trying it. Oh my Good realy sense on defy that would be buetiful.
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:
I did not want to disturb him (dexter), but since I do not find any cooperation from anyone, I hope that he answer me positive!!
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Maybe when Quarx has published a stable Version of CM7, then he could help with that.
[Defy Android Development] 2-die-4:
That would be quite cool.

Do you think if Quarx can port CM7 to defy. Including the Gingerbread Kernel... That it would be possible to port Leedroid 3.0.3 for desire HD to defy? I'm sure Leedroid would help you with it :)
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Of course he can! It would be grat if he does, but i think he is busy with CM7 so i think he wont do it until he has "finished" CM7. But hey....why dont we ask him?

EDIT: I wrote him a PM, lets hope the best. No answer
[Defy Android Development] 2-die-4:
You could try and ask Leedroid from this thread.

@iaio72 any news?
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
i will never flash this release anymore, after flashed it several times it just burnt my flashlight, so i had to send the device back to Moto. This rom will only turn to usable one if some hardcore dev spend time on it, and port it to another Froyo release besides Chinese one. Chinese Defys are different from the rest of the world.

[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Does this test boot?

I dont realy understand your problem. is it that you cant singn the update.zip?
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:
ok you'are right!

my rom test 5 its my test based from froyo 2.2.2 ita (but french and german its the same)

porting defy-sense its on froyo ita 2.2.2.

1 step have installed froyo ita on defy, root/defy2nd init installed

2 the zip at link above copy into microsd

3 enter in boot menu/custom recovery, and flash the rom/zip >>> in this step its an error in the update-script, i think that i dont compiled exactly and need help to solve this problem...

4 if rom installed correct you can flesh via rsd the boot.sbf >>> boot-froyo-ita.sbf

if the script its correct, after flesh of boot.sbf, reboot and then we will se if rom works or not.....

understand me? :D
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
okay i try
[Defy Android Development] pjgowtham:
guys .....y is this in sbf.....Does this flash correctly???

Wont this flash in custom recovery??

Meanwhile try porting sense from HTC salsa............I have a problem in updater script i think.........i get status 7 error

Will sense 3.0 work on defy......or does it have any minimum requirements??

Try guys........I am happy that defy is going to get sense

By the way Moto has told us that he ll unlock the bootloader soon....through an update in Q3 or Q4 of 2011
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
i tried the test build and i ended in a classic boot loop.

abaut Sense 3.0 Yes it should be able but a bit leaky. It works on HD2 and Desire and they have much lower power rthan a Defy clocked to 1 Ghz. But i think it would be the best to port sense 2.1 with parts of sense 3.0, like the lockscreen and so on. This would be much smother and does not need to overclock.

But the first step is to make Sense (no madder wich version) run on the Defy with a actual base and without bugs.
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:
the problem remain to compiled in corect mode the update-script...but im not expert for this dev....we wait that someone can help to resolve!
[Defy Android Development] pjgowtham:
I tried to port sense from salsa to defy

I removed boot.img

I edited update scripts

Used htc rom kitchen

RESULT : Fail

What is the problem with boot.img

IS it because of the locked bootloader

What does it contain

what are .bin files on ....are they drivers??

What is backup.sh ....is it a part of recovery??
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:
you used recovery bootmenu?
[Defy Android Development] pjgowtham:
yes.i used clockworkmod
[Defy Android Development] zohan569:
any news? :confused:
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Why that? Salsa has a much different resolution... why not desire s? fits better.
[Defy Android Development] kruppin:
Sorry, I mean no disrespect but when you say you "tried to port", what do you mean? You know, it usually takes more than just move some files and whatnot. But, to re-base Dexters on a newer SBF-release shouldn't be that hard though, probably just exchange moto-files to newer ones should do it, and that's what we should concentrate on. But to port a newer sense, then we're talking alot more work probably, becouse drivers and such will be incompatible. I mean, Dexters release is actually good, except that it kills the flashlight, which will be fixed if we update to a newer motorelease.
[Defy Android Development] edition-:
I agree, dexter comments were to try and change the moto files only and with that port to another froyo ROM, it should be enought
[Defy Android Development] kruppin:
I can try this (with my very limited coding skills, but if everything goes as I plan, that shouldn't be a problem), but don't have a Defy to test it on anymore, since it's my brothers whos out of the country atm. Also, I don't have alot time, but will atleast start tomorrow. Some initial thought are that bootmenu wont work with this for example, and for it to be a simple upgrade of sbf, we must use the old clockwork and restore. Shouldn't be that hard to rebuild system.img after the changes.

And if someone already tested this, feel free to tell me, so I don't waste my time. :p But this is the way to go anyway, if you aren't a experienced porter/coder becouse then go for Sense 3.0 and android 2.3 ;)
[Defy Android Development] edition-:
Dexter gave some advices in how to do that some posts ago, but I'm willing to test if you go for it, i really loved the rom but my flashlight got broken too at the time
[Defy Android Development] IE-coRe:
Well how is it going? A new test build i can flash? =)
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
i claim on this since i got my Defy, i burnt my flashlight and had to send it to Motorola, just because of this. Its been almost a half year since people started porting Sense to Defy but there are no developers on it since a long time ago. So i quit begging on this.
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:

would someone help me with compiling the 'update-scripts, I

published rom test5, but there are problems in reading during

Will Test New Rom

I will test almost any rom. I love HTC Sense. I am using GalnetMIUI but I get bored really quick and am always changing to another. I have been waiting for an updated Sense rom but nobody seems to want to make one. I wish I knew how to do it myself. If you or someone could develop a new GingerSense or ReDevelop this rom I will test it without a problem. There is a V0.2 in HTC Mania that has some fixes in already.

But then i looked original Desire, and a new one costed 560€, and a used one, old 6months-1year costed from 220-270€ and that was too expensive and... OLD!...
