Hello guys,

we already discussed in a few threads on this one. But today I found out that there is a system dump of HTC Desire 601 right here on xda: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47693848&postcount=22

Maybe this will help us to port Sense 5 with 4.2.2. The only problem is, the resolution of Desire 601 is 960x450, so we need to resize the apps. But specs are similar to ours, so it may be possible. What would you say?

EDIT: The system dump is for Single SIM variant, before you start asking.

Hope port is possible. Would be great to have 4.2.2/Sense 5 on DX...
@ckpv5 : you've done big work in porting 4.1.2/Sense, so what do you think about this?

A solution to the resolution problem might be the Desire 500. With the same resolution as us Desire X.
On the www i read about news that the Desire 500 become a Update to Android 4.4.2 from HTC in the near future

Yeah, but the Desire 500 is dual sim and the Desire 601 is single sim. So we would need to make a mix of both somehow. Btw, as I don't have experience in ROM porting anyway and also not enough time to learn it (before summer at least), I started this thread just to inform you that there is a system dump we might be able to use, to do a little brainstorming and hopefully get some good developes involved in porting. So, is there anyone who can help us?

You could port the desire 601 version then mix the files with desire 500 dump from 4.1 to fix resizing bugs that's how ckp5 did it first I think
