I am no dev, but I am very good with Lynx, so I plan to become a dev for the incredible. I want to bring good to this Incredible Device.
Basically if Paul is successful completing the root of the Desire, the Incredible should be a shoe in. The Desire is half rooted so to speak.
I just put in my Pre-order and will be pulling a Kitchen/ROMs together once we get root....
I worked on the Eris Root and that was pretty damn tough...but we got that done as well as rooting the HTC Tatoo in the process
So I will have ROMs/Mods in the future.....as well as another couple Dev friends of mine that are heading over as well!

Looking to jump the T-Mobile ship and get this phone as well. Sweet phone.
And invisiblek, small world.
as this phone had google branding on the back, will this phone have an unlocked bootloader like the N1 and moto droid?

I wasn't aware that the MotoDroid could be unlocked in the same manner as the N1.
To the best of my knowledge, Verizon has no plans of letting any phone they release be rootable out of the box. They have the most stringent controls of any network carrier and given the size of their network in the US, they don't have to compromise.
HTC Incredible
I'll be receiving mine wednesday, hopefully will get into this thing very deep, willing to help, count me in.
Just placed my pre-order yesterday. Can't wait to root it
I might end up doing some dev work on this thing... we'll see
Can't wait to jump from my current 400mhz/128mb ram vogue to this!

Nice. I'd love to see some of the Vogue Devs working on the Incredible. I had a great run with my Vogue but its time to move on

The moto droid does not have an unlocked bootloader like the n1. and this will more than likely follow the same suit as the desire and legend, so whatever paul did to root the desire and legend will more than likely work on the incredible. hold tight guys, im hoping to start developing on the incredible as soon as i can afford one

Thats exactly like using a gsm hero's source code for our development. I don't really think so. but i could check it out and port some heroc stuff to see if it'll work
We've ported Eris dumps and Legend dumps (their source is also out). I understand it won't go straight out of the box, but since the Eris is almost identical to the Hero we have, I would think modifying it for us wouldn't be an issue. Wasn't the only difference hardware-wise was the light sensor on the Hero versus the proximity sensor on the Eris?
My luck...it'll be that camera again.

do a string search for heroC in make menuconfig for both droid eris source and hero cdma source and tell me if you see the board configs for our phone in both of them. Its not as easy as porting roms from the same architecture as ours. If you noticed, in all the ports we replaced the kernel in the boot.img with our own leaked .29 kernel
This can only mean one thing. The update is near.
That's cool. Just an idea since it could be a while until we see our source code release. Wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers here.

Ya never know though. Look, the Incredible code was released quick.
I may be wrong and we get it within a week or two after release (hopefully, I am wrong). I'm going by the last time source code was release, which was four months later.

This leads to the question of why it was released with the 2.1 update...is this a new HTC or does Verizon have a hand in this?
Either way, this is nothing but good news for us and future Android phones.
Hopefully, it's HTC learning from the delay lessons of 1.5. If not, I guarantee that Sprint won't go to bat for us getting the source code...that may eat into their potential revenue for the Evo.

sprints never going to go to bat unless it affects their bottom line if it doesnt get relaesesd we will have to do the same thing we did when getting the source for 1.5 and start an email and call campaigne hopefully that wont come to that though as I think the 1.5 delay was becuase of the way that the kernel was hacked together to get CDMA support and with android now nativly supporting CDMA it hopefully wont be an issue.
Ahh really? Our soucre code for the. 29 kernel is the last thing we need. An overclocked kernel with working camera! oh well, I hope we can get it shortly after the 2.1 update goes live

Good sign for us when we finally get the offical 2.1? (I know Toast already did it but....)
Because we know how much you developers love source code...Legend, Incredible, Desire, and Eris(2.1) kernels are online. http://ht.ly/1MODf

oh no it's cool man thanks for sharing, where as I didn't see anything posted about them yet
I just read this tweet and came as fast as possible to xda to see if there was any buzz about us getting a usable kernel source hopefully after our last debacle with the kernel source, htc has decided to just go ahead and make it standard protocol to release it immediately after the binaries
toastcfh ported this source like 3 weeks ago . old news, but thanks anyways
I love their tweet about it. It made me LOL.

I am really excited about this.
If this becomes a good Sense Froyo build, I am very excited to see it be ported here.
If, by that time, no one is into porting, I will investigate what it takes.
I'm way too excited about Froyo with SenseUI.
I thought I'd point this out here, for all to see. I believe desire is 320x480*** (perfect) and that serves to make (some) things much easier.

Umm, I MIGHT have seen that a few days ago, and I MIGHT be looking at it...
I MIGHT have to kiss you Kaos!
I might have to think kaos is going to be covered in kisses by me! <3

I'm beginning to think kaos is not a human at all, but some kind of super computer that gets its jollys off by building the sweetest rom's for the Eris!! Lol

UGH, I didn't know it was.
May-haps the resolution problem isn't that much of a 'problem' anyway.
It seems like every .apk will contain images for 800x480 as well as the .xml files delivering visuals that way...
I can't imagine it being easy, but maybe I'm wrong. Again.
Its already been ported to the EVO.
Wife has an eris so this would be great she loves sense and froyo would be nice.
P.S. I have the Incredible and I'm thinking its time for punk.kaos to upgrade to the incredible he is the hardest working dev i've seen.

Well, there's a rumor going around that someone might have shipped that Kaos guy an Incredible to dev on.... But you all know how rumors go. Especially from such an unreliable source
FFS someone STOP that shipment!!!!

Kaos is the terminator!
A solid Froyo with SenseUI would be the end all of ROMs for me.
I would stop modding my phone completely, if I had this, and it worked well.

OK that's a huge lie.
But it would make me very happy.
My buddy just got an EVO and has the Mario live wallpaper constantly running. That screen is H U G E. And that phone is silly fast. Outrageous.

I know we can root and remove the crap we dont want but is there a 2.2 ROM to install yet ?

Not to be an ass, but If you don't see it here chances are it's not available yet. I believe XDA to be the central hub of information (even if the news originates somewhere else). If there is news it won't be hidden on the Development page.
Look in the forums of the other Galaxy S variants to see the status of Froyo on this Samsung line of devices. I believe it will be a little while before one is released for a CDMA version.

You were nicer than I was going to be, so I just decided to just bite my tongue, and let someone else respond first.
This is my first smartphone, so instead of this thread just dropping to the bottom, maybe myself and others could learn something.
What exactly needs to be done with Froyo (or any ROM) before it can be adapted to a particular phone, in this case, the fascinate?
I suppose keeping it in relative lay-speak would be nice as well.
Having samsung release a 2.2 ROM for the US Galaxy S phones would be a start.
The euro variants have a different button layout among other things that makes life harder for our development.

We need samsung to release the 2.2 update, and that will give you 2.2
As far as custom roms / CyanogenMod 6 on the fascinate, we will need the 2.6.32 kernel source code to drop (and pray that Samsung will release the right source when they release that code) and then a bit of developing.
you really think there will even be a 2.2? Personally, I think it would be updated straight to Gingerbread
There's a post from kaos on the kaos rom for eris forms stating that he had 2.2 running on his fascinate before it bricked, but that he MIGHT be developing a rom for the fascinate.
I'll see if I can track down the post.

We'll be so lucky if Kaos gets one working with the Fascinate, I had an Eris prior to the Fascinate and I was talking to him about developing for it, looks like he found someone to help him out.
His ROM > all others once they start rolling out.
Coming from an eris I would love to have punk kaos rom on my fascinate.
I'm coming from an eris too, and had kaos on mine, and about creamed myself after reading that, hahaha.....Even if kaos came out with a 2.1, id be all set.
LOL, same here. I got a late start with KaosFroyo, coming in at V30, after I discovered that one-touch root was finally available for the Eris. I had one month of the best Android experience possible on an Eris before I ordered up my new Fascinate. I wish I had the cash to buy a Fascinate for punk kaos, so he could start creating what could only become the best Fascinate ROM ever!
EDIT: Just saw the post where he said he's already working on one. Awesome!!! I'll DEFINITELY be donating to his coffee fund once he starts pumping out a ROM for this bad boy. Hmm, what will he name it though? I vote for Kaoscinate!
Yes, its true. I've been working on a 2.2 rom for the Fascinate. I got it to boot but was in the very early stages of dev when my phone let out a puff of smoke and died.
I got the phone through a sponsor, and have returned the phone to them and they're trying to get me another one. Hopefully they will soon and I can keep on truckin

That is a respectable position, but considering my gf is rocking out my old eris running v.34 I wouldn't consider it a waste if you couldn't get anything cooking for the fascinate.

Well, if you're sure
Just sent over some coffee cash for all the hard work on KaosFroyo, since I never got around to actually donating before. And also, I'm not done with it yet, as I'm loading up V35-1 on my deactivated Eris to let a co-worker with a live Eris play with. She's unhappy with 2.1, so she might want me to give her phone the same treatment, since she's stuck in a 2-year contract.
Anyway, looking forward to you getting a replacement Fascinate. Did it literally start smoking before it died? Dang, I knew these phones were hot, but that's just a bit over the top.
