I'm in the middle of trying to port my FIRST ROM!
I'm very excited but I'm very new as well. I was wondering if any devs were willing to help me once it's complete to see whether I've done it right or still need some help. If you could contact me or below and I'll get back to you with all the info once I'm done!
ETA: Tomorrow afternoon (2-3 PM EST)
TIA! I'm really pumped about getting into this stuff!
Update:
Here's the final port (beta obviously)
***download***
If anyone is willing to try it out and help guide me on how to fix any problems, I'd gladly appreciate it!!!!
I'm no dev, but I'll give you a couple of things to watch out for.
Low mic - make some calls. Sckboy78 has a low mike fix he uses on his roms that is probably linked in some of his release threads.
Device name - make sure you change the right line over in the build.prop so that it shows HTC Glacier as the device type in settings. That is covered in Mr. Highway's porting guide, but people tend to miss it.
I'm no recognized developer, but I am very good at porting. Are you porting sense or AOSP? PM me with questions or need a tester.

Alright I just finished! Sorry it was a little past the ETA.... But should I post in the Dev area or have some people test it out first?
Updated OP with link and info!

Here's the ROM I ported: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459760
It's CM7/AOSP based as suggested by another member for a beginner. I used the Android Kitchen and used the official and updated CM7 as the base. That's about it...

I can't test as I'm updating my PrimoS, but from what I can tell, you did everything right by what you said. Good luck! Good work too!
make sure you don't miss the line in the build.prop that gives you the correct signal readings. That's the one that irritates me the most, but idk if you did cause I can't flash atm.

It's actually pretty common to my experience. Zips missed it in a couple of his earlier builds. Basically your signal never changes. Like I'd always have either two bars or full bars (depended on the ROM, never understood why they're different) and I'd know for a fact that it's wrong.

Hey guys-

CM 6 is coming. For now enjoy the great job done so far
if you take a look at other threads under this forum, there has been work at porting 2.2 to this phone. Some difficulties in getting a fully functional build. I would recommend using the search function before starting a new thread, especially when posting under development, as you'll prolly get flamed pretty heavily.

I'm totally aware there's a 2.2 rom out for the vibrant already but what I'm asking for is a much easier to install version of froyo.

It does exist. It was the international Froyo leak but it is not a complete Froyo since it is missing JIT as well as other things. That leaked ROM is incomplete and is not stable for everyday use. Especially on a Vibrant, there are a lot of bugs with it and it is not recommended to be using it as the daily ROM.
It's better off waiting for 2.2 to release by Samsung or the CM team. It's just around the corner. Be patient.

They're working on it, once Eugene has it fixed, he's going to make a flashable .zip file for easy installing. He posted this in his 2.2 thread.

Exactly - there is no Froyo rom that is much easier to install than the leaked int'l one, let alone a stable one. What he's asking for doesn't exist. There's no secret, stable, froyo.zip floating around that people just aren't talking about.
I havnt seen a single rom on here that ISNT easy to install....

So far theres not an easy way to get a fully functional 2.2 however as with anything give it time and we will see it some time.
i do believe that everyone on here wants that including all the developers working on it. if we were happy with 2.1 then we would have stuck with the original os that samsung put out for the vibrant. really did you have to ask this here? or at all? its technology its always growing. give it time!

I understand that the question might provoke a bit of negative response as it could be PERCEIVED as a lack of appreciation towards ALL those cooking ROMS. Im sure no offense is meant by the qursetion though. As a not so hard rule, the ROMS most recent are usually based on the most recent kernels (which have improvements and latest tweaks and latest apps, but not necessarily are the best). So I suggest you try a few different ones, but maybe starting from the latest.
May I take the opportunity to thank all cookers who have contributed one way or another to us today having roms that are fantastic.

Hey back off the guy has freaking 2 posts are you guys serious quit flaming you flamers!

you have to try them that is the only way to see which is the BEST for YOU. I currently have six different builds most from mdeejay so like i said try them and find out everyone is different i have energy rom tmob usa mdeejay froyo nextsense 2.4.2
first i just wanted to say its not called droid...its android. droid is nothing more than a brand name that verizon uses for MOST of their android handsets. they pay george lucas extra money just to use the DROID name
are you serious? another one?! thats just........sickening.
Thanks for the help.. I've tried a few builds.. Now I think I do something else to my phone to get my voice to sound correct when I'm using the phone.

Having 2 posts means nothing .... it does not mean that OP s not got common sense and it does not mean he cant read ...
number of posts is never really important ...
but i do believe people who can use a phone can read and understand enuf to not post stuff in the wrong forum eh ?
maybe this should be moved to someplace else ...
"but we have a search feature!!!!"
if you don't like this tread then why are you reading it? if it's posted in the wrong category, then surely a mod will move it. in the mean time, try to carry on in your self-inflicted misery individually, instead of dragging everyone else into your negativity.
If you know how to do it for your co-worker, I'm assuming you have experience, so wouldn't you know which build is stable by now?
Look at my signature. That's the most stable combo for me, works flawlessly as a daily build.
So far I've only seen a couple.can someone make a list??I already saw the wiki page it helped a bit but not much lol. I wanna see if anyone got any luck with different kernal combinations.

if you have fastboot set up it's easy, just use this code:
Code:

where CWM-3.0-recovery-preludedrew.img is the path to 3.0 recover which you can get from the post
Where though my computer with adb?

its similar to the way you use adb. it should be a part of the sdk, but you can find it to download easy enough if you just google it / some tutorials should pop up too on how to set it up. basically fastboot and adb (from my admittedly new knowledge of android) are two different tools that interact with the phone from your computer. as such, they're installed the same way

Just finishing up getting it past boot, so that anyone willing cam give me a logcat to help. Very close actually.
OK so I just spoke to Rabim, and no, he doesn't have the ROM ready. It wouldn't boot because he's using the wrong kernel, and since there is no kernel for Sense 4, he used the one for AOSP which caused a lot of different issues.
HOWEVER, the guy is new to this, and he just wants to learn as much as he can, so if you're going to flame and write retarded comments about this, please hit yourself in the head with a sharp object first. If you guys have ideas and want to support him, I've messaged andy to move this thread to general section, and there you can share your ideas with Rabim and help him develop the ROM. He's using the recent nexus port of Endeavor.
EDIT: I would offer my help, but I have no time at all atm.
Ok, here we have the OP, who want's to learn & give something to the Desire HD community.
What happens next....
1. The whole community gets behind him/her and provides necessary guidance & advice to achieve the overall goal?
2. Some users take it upon themselves to "nay-say" and just bring the thread down before it's even started?
We want the answer to be 1.
Yet here we are again, and we have 2.
Please guys, don't push away those who want to give something back to the community.
Rabim - I've moved your thread to General until things start to progress. Once you have something together just send me a PM and I'll get this moved into the Development forum.
Also, any problems of issues? Just PM me or add me on GTalk and I will always be happy to help. (Seems like 3/4's of XDA's Million users have me on GTalk now )

You seem like a decent guy but, first the guy that took the time to answer your post is one of the biggest names and best developers here currently.
Second, what the devs do is way beyond 'hacks'. This is open source software which is basically rebuilding the os from the ground up.
In any case and as he said you have a mesmerize . So just flash mez builds. I would recommend glitched AOKP personally.
