[Q] ANy purely stock Android Gingerbread for HTC Legend?

[asifisbest]

Is there any ROM which gives me purely or nearly stock Android Gingerbread on HTC Legend? Or is there any mean by which we can uninstall those unwanted things from CyanogenMod 7 which I am currently running? Like the power control in notifications bar? I have already gotten rid of ADW Launcher and replaced it with Stock Android Gingerbread Launcher. Tips and help needed in this thing.

u wont find anything better than cm7.0

afaik that power control is also part of gingerbread but u can simply disable it in the cm settings...

seek and you shall find

Thanks for reminding me that I can disable the power control from the CyanogenMod settings.

They do because people still answer their questions when asked in development.. If we keep ignoring them they might learn it

You really have a point but theres a problem.. if you have a question in "Legend Q&A" section it´s common you don´t get any answer or the answer sucks because someone tries to be funny

Even though others will disagree, CM 7 on the Legend is absolute garbage. The keyboard is sluggish and crashes are a constant issue that are never resolved. I still sticking with CM 6.1.0 as it works as intended.

i find cm 7.0.3 the best rom for the legend atm, never had a crash and my keyboard works just fine..

yea been using cm7 and as long as I don't set CPU over 800 I don't get random restart, and its been by far the smoothest rom I have tried.

I don't know for sure, but if it takes over 150 nightly attempts to make a new stable ROM for a device, I'm not touching it.

u are doing smth wrong

works like a charm here

No offense, but someone who posts in broken English doesn't qualify as a valid response. There is no 'wrong' about it. It's a 'port' and therefore will be problematic.

For now, it's like running Windows XP on a Pentium II. It will work, but it won't get the job done. Leave Gingerbread for Scorpion based devices that actually can run it smoothly due to a faster processor and more internal memory. 90MB for application memory isn't enough.

Except for the official Google ones every device is using a 'port'. The CM maintainers even have to port the latest code back to the older official devices (as was done with the N1 long before Google engineers pushed the changes to their public Gingerbread repositories).

Leave Gingerbread for Scorpion based devices that actually can run it smoothly due to a faster processor and more internal memory. 90MB for application memory isn't enough.

I just checked: At the moment I've got about 150MB of user memory available. Keep in mind that my system is up and running for a few days now and that Android keeps processes in memory until it has to free some for new ones.


I dare to assert that my knowledge concerning hardware support, hardware requirements and Android ports is quite profound. I may not have been as deeply involved into merging the CyanogenMod codebase with Gingerbread as say Cyanogen back then, but I nevertheless know a lot of code well enough and I also created the CPU/arch target for the Legend locally to build and run my and the World's first Gingerbread port of Android on my Legend. Said target was later added and merged by Ricardo Cerqueira by the way.

I also dare to state that the vast majority of differences that could seriously influence performance is to be found between Éclair and Froyo and that those differences resulted in nearly doubled scores in benchmarks. Even if you don't "believe" in benchmarks (I certainly don't) a 100% plus should at least prove that the Legend if perfectly capable of running Froyo. Because the differences between Froyo and Gingerbread are so small and cover a vast majority of completely different areas (like getting rid of a lot of legacy code) Froyo and Gingerbread are quite close.


You might be using valid English – which is not worth mentioning for a native speaker anyway – but that makes your false pretences not a whit righter.
