[ROM/BOUNTY] Rhodium Android Port [$1360/$3290] - Early builds in post #3 [02/08]

[cielorosso]

I'd like to contribute to increasing the bounty

$ 20 for a clean working port... that means all hardware supported in kernel

§ 100 for a port with:

dialer supporting "straight talk" capabilities (like it does in WinMo.. I love this feature!)
Scandinavian keyboard supported / mapped... (or at least a tool that will let me map the keys myself
Keyboard light / hardware buttons turning on in poor lighting conditions (light sensor)

... and an extra § 20 for a dialer that can handle video calls (on 3g network)

are you insane?
why don't you just ask for when you point your phone at a chunk of lead it'll turn into gold?
not only android os doesn't have capability to do video calls, but our phone doesn't have that capability in any operating system at all. it simply doesn't have proper hardware to support video calls.

I am just going to go out on a limb here, and say he has the HTC branded version. If you weren't so thick, and obviously ignorant to the facts, the HTC branded version DOES have a front facing camera, and IS capable of making video calls. Out of curiosity, did you even GLANCE at his operator? Because it does make pretty obvious that he is in Europe. Don't act like a **** if you can't even ****ing read or pay any attention to the POSSIBLE facts.

ps: Do you even know what SCANDINAVIAN means? That means NORWAY, DENMARK and SWEDEN. FINLAND and ICELAND are also sometimes lumped into this. Now please kindly **** off.

Thank you gehzumteufel, for replying on my behalf...

gehzumteufel is correct. The RHOD100* Touch Pro2, which is sold in Europe (where you'll find Denmark among others ), does have a front facing camera, and can make video calls in Windows Mobile. I'm currently using energyROM on it, and it also has support for video calls (although cooked by an american).

That Android OS doesn't support it should be irrelevant: If the hardware is supported in the kernel, utilizing it should be a software issue.

I'm aware, that designing / porting a dialer/phone app, with video calls is going to take a lot of work, and for that reason I offered the extra bounty! I thougt it'd be unreasonable to make it a requirement for the $ 100 bounty.

* kindly note that the specific model was included in my signature, so even if the danish flag, or the operator information, or my request for scandinavian keyboard support didn't tip you off, this probably should have!

You can count me in,

50$ for a fully working Android with Haret
100$ for native Android (i.e. get rid of WinMo completely)

 

[Marlinsfan88]

id pay 50 bucks for a fully functional stock 2.1 CDMA. im talkin full works tho, camera, proper LED functions, speaker working, bluetooth, just like ud get on the samsung moment or the mytouch to that extent. only reason is i had the moment but the gf's phone took a **** on her so i gave her the moment and went back to TP2

 

[KFlandreau]

I wanted to check in and see if you ever got this to work? Im in Bellevue Wa and would be willing to pay for an "upgrade" to Android.

 

[mastanthony89]

I would pay $50 for a fully working 2.2 Port with all hardware working.

 

[daddymikey1975]

I'd be more than happy to donate $30 for the following:

CDMA support (I'm on boost CDMA)
Sound (speakerphone and music capability)
Power mgmt
Camera support.

version 2.1 or 2.2 (Currently I'm running the froyo 2.2 build and it's pretty stable all things considered)

Personally I don't mind about wifi or bluetooth, don't care about landscape mode, don't mind about G sensor or any of that stuff..

Hope this helps

Yo buddy, whether you're sorry or not it doesn't go on the bounty board. Offer a bounty or go in Reefermatness' forum about this.

Hell, my brand new stock Tilt 2 locks up already, and I have to yank the battery to get it to reset.

Sounds to me like the Android is more reliable!!

I can't wait to try it out!
