Well since the specs are all similar I would have to assume it would be possible. PM thoughtlesskyle as he is the best porter here. I will try to learn how to port and work on it but it could be very difficult because the htc drivers are different then other ones and because i have never done anything like it before lol :D. I would surely hope this is possible though because I would love life again. It would probably make me **** out sunshine and piss double rainbows if it happened. Thank you for sharing this with us though.

Actualy after investigation , I realize it is difficult to port a gsm rom to cdma. I frankly do not know anything about how to do it. The person who was the absolute best at that but has now left us was zenulator. Id ask as many devs as you can on how to do it, etc. It could take quite a while. A while back there was a thread on this (it ended in april) and it was not going well. I hope it works better this time.

Sorry to post again lol but i looked up some more about the radio issues and apparently there is an app on the market called network that allows you to choose the cdma radio instead of the gsm radio when you boot (although you gotta do it every time you boot) otherwise the phone would always look for gsm radio service and it would kill your battery. Other then that though this should be possible.

Yes, it's pretty much been done already bierce said. And in.all actuality, it's amazing that it got this far. If that's what you want, check sensible salsa out.

I am correct in saying that you are talking about Sensible Test Build, Gingersense, etc? Because if so i can never boot that rom lol no matter what i try that is the only rom i can not load up. I will try some other stuff to try and get it going but will you post screenshots so i can see what it looks like? Im sure it looks great although i do have a few questions; A, does it have htc hub; B, does it play nice with firerats partitions; and C, does it smooth or does it seem laggy at times? Thanks

reflash your recovery, wipe all, flash - I had problems booting UNTIL the recovery was reflashed.
A=yes
B=yes
C=yes and yes
