Desire C - possible port for ICS?

[brat.haneq]

Hello everyone
I noticed that Desire C was introduced.
It's hardware looks very similar to our old Hero.
I'm curious, would it be possible to port ICS + Sense. Not sure about the ARM (6 or 7?)on the Desire, I remember that this caused problems in the past.
What do You guys think ?
Cheers!

I think that it's not possible. We have from where to port ICS - Eris, HeroC.

But why did you do a thread in Development Area?

 

[brat.haneq]

Hi there
Yeah, it should be general or qa section, I was so hyped by the possibility of port, that I posted without thinking.
Sorry about that, can someone move this thread to aproptiate section?
Cheers

I don't agree, I think this could be possible for many reasons. But what I can say is that if the devs of the Samsung galaxy ace are capable of porting sense 4 to their device, I see no reason ( except ram) that could make us think that the port is impossible

To finish, many people say that ics is in a way lighter than gb, in general. So there is only a sense port remaining.
But as the specs are quite similar...why would it be impossible?

I think this will be same like with explorer sense 3.5,it will be ported sooner or later...

Guys, the DesireC is the Eris. Or have I missed something?

The DesireC doesn't have a Sense ICS build, they have an AOSP build. Our AOSP build is ported from theirs.

yes, I think we're not a lot on this forum but we know we're a good team together ^^,

Look, personally, I would never have thought that ICS would work on our little hero.

But if it runs as smooth as i'd like it to be, I think I would reconsider the fact I want a one x

Can't deodex it

 

[nickholtus]

why not.
change api level to 15

Why deodexing it? It's already deodexed for most apks


I'm trying to cook it a bit but this ROM is so HUGE!!
I just can't believe it would be possible to flash it in system/app

I think we'd better try to have as a base the modules from the working ICS, shouldn't we?

----------------------
EDIT 1
Hey hey!! I cleaned up the System/app folder and now it's size is...144MB...without mail, and without calendar...what a shame!!

But System/ stills 376MB...we're almost there!!
We need to be less than approximatively 190MB (accepting the fact that we will need custom mdt partionning)

I got the whole /system down to 270MB. But I had do delete quite a lot of APKs... I don't have time to work on it more right now though, maybe later.
