I've decided to move from windows developing ROM's to android. I have the base rom's and radio's but I'm looking for anything you guys want?

I have a legend and will be souly developing for it so I need to know what your looking for.

Any feedback would be great and I hope to have first build online in the next few weeks!

Thanks.

For example: it´s would be nice to have another froyo based rom with some of the next features:
- jit activated
- perflock disabled
- one with sense, another without it
- ¿overclocked kernel?
- latest drivers from official htc roms

Maybe you can take ali ba or kyosa roms for using like base rom. Or you cant take the official rom that HTC says is going to be available this month.

You could try to make your froyo rom based on Cyanogen mod 6. Or perhapes you could make sensless(without htc sens, and other usless crap) rom based on latest 2.10.xxx rom. Wich would include ADW launcher and some other cupcakes :)

grlayouts - welcome! Its great to have another developer on board for the Legend :)

Personally I think the real demand will probably arrive when the Legend officially gets 2.2, I'm sure many people will want a non-sense/vanilla ROM (I'm not sure how much CM6 differs from pure vanilla).

For inspiration it may be worth looking at some of the more popular ROMs in the Desire subforum, too.

Also one big thing we're missing on the Legend thus far is the ability to apply themes.. am aware that's largely down to not having the required level of root access but I believe there has been recent progress on that front...

Enough from me...! I'm sure the Legend community will be grateful for any of your releases...look forward to seeing your work!

Good luck!

I would love a themeable rom, or completely blank froyo and yes it really is good to see a new developer, the more the merrier

Imagine a dog with its salivating tongue hanging out.
We are all waiting for THE FROYO. So, anything based on 2.2 please, thanks.
A rom compatible with oc kernels released or maybe you could release a few of your own.
I dont mind HTC Sense. A few bug changes :D
Welcome to the community. We have many children here ;)

there are many people that are looking for this on legend.
For a rom a nice 2.2 without fancy stuff,very fast and stable oc kernel etc.

Why not try and join the villainrom guys and create a legend version of villainrom. Looking forward to a 2.2 Rom with working radio.

Thanks to Ali baba for his source on irc I will probably be using that! I have a second build installed with the nexus dialer and contacts and I'll be working on the look now. Keep the input coming.

I will also be looking into villain ROM and seeing what they offer.

It would be great to have an opengl accelerated internet browser :)

I second this. :)
Yeah, considering the guys at villainrom have used a lot of legend ports I'm surprised there hasn't been anything for us :(

Surely if we start with a hero froyo ROM we could work backwards. Not sure if they have a sense ROM though?

Had a quick go at trying to port back to legend, but keep always get errors on the install. Taking ages atm cus I'm just changing what the install error complains about & then trying again.

Anyone no any specifics on what needs changing to port?

The Desire device had it before htc released.
Why Legend not?
Because the Desire developers figured out how to configure and build a device target to travel forward in spacetime.


The other explanation would be that there was a test build that leaked and spread really fast.


I'm starting to believe that HTC will not release an official 2.2 ROM for the Legend. It did not sell that well and there's no money to be made of that upgrade.

I think Froyo ROM development would be most appriciated by many enthusiasts.

But great builds of htcs official and enclair builds are always liked and used by many users ;-)

Also welcome to the legendary boards. Good pick. I came from wm on the Elf myself.
