Can we expect wildfire s Rom on our wildfire? - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

With the release of HTC new smart phones including the wildfire s, I was wondering if the new wildfire s Rom could be ported to our wildfire. Both models doesn't have much difference in hardware apart from a slightly faster processor and a gpu, its roughly the same.. with a same screen size though different resolution. The Rom that comes with is 2.3 and has some extra features for instance Facebook face tagging which I saw on the wildfire s first look video posted by HTC on YouTube. So I'm just wondering can we expect this latest Rom on our wildfire?

i dont think htc will release 2.3 on wildfire considering 2.2 took so long and didnt even have almost any improvements due to lack of hardware.

I think the original poster is asking whether anyone here on XDA will be able to port the Wildfire S ROM over to our original Wildfires...in my opinion it is probably possible but we will have to wait and see as no one has the Wildfire S yet

Yeah but it won't be long before its released. Since it was possible to port the DHD Rom to desire so maybe its possible for wildfire s Rom to wildfire too.

I am not counting on it to be honest, because, the Wildfire S is a totally different phone compared to the Wildfire. It is now much more of an Aria / Gratia.
Desire HD is pretty similar to Desire, with the same screen resolution, almost same CPU (Just a mildly upgraded one), same GPU, and, only increased screen size, internal memory and RAM.
However, obviously, if the WF S ROM is ported to WF, it will be a great thing, it is just that I am not crossing my fingers (yet)

Not really, the differences in screen resolutions roils imply terrible amounts of resizing with little to no benefits for the old wildfire, except 2.3 that is.

Im sure there must be more benefits like the new sense version and UI modifications, but what im more excited is a 2.3 sense Rom.

No. Because it is not designed for QVGA. Also, for Sense to be "ported", HTC must release the code AFAIK.

Porting the Wildfire S ROM is like porting the Aria ROM to Wildfire.
It's almost impossible.

No one knows whether it is impossible yet as no one has the wildfire s... it could be possible despite the resolution difference... probably not but we will have to wait and see

Just download and take a look. I can't extract system.img/boot.img.
Here is a better system dump of the wildfire s rom which someone confirmed in evolution 4g forum
http://www.morninglion.com/tp2martin/Marvel_Dump.zip

Can the dumps be modified to fit the wildfire? Maybe not the entire Rom but features of the Rom itself?

[Q] new sense

anybody can port new htc sense in wildfire just like in wildfire s and in desire hd
thanks in advance
This topic has already been discussed, and it is unlikely the port will happen, because of differences in the screen resolution.
Would love to see it happen but I doubt it, would like to be proved wrong!
It might not even boot :S
How about making 2.3 sense with qvga htc apps from 2.2.1 ota? it might not be sense 2.1, but it's a good start!

2.3 brought tons of framework changes. I bet HTC would've made plenty of changes to their framework because of this. Since htc apps are heavily dependant on the HTC framework files, I doubt this would work.
IMO 2.3 has enough of a graphical overhaul from froyo to be better than sense. I personally don't find any functionality in HTC apps which I can't have in cm7, but maybe that's just me.

I tried yesterday to get the wildfire s rom to boot and it was not having it, the wildfire s has support for VFP which the wildfire doesn't which could be the culprit, i got so far but libskia.so was being an ass and having i/o errors and when i replaced it netd stopped working.
how about HTC flyer unlock screen? It Is a must I think

[Q] Sense V3.0

Hey guys,
I was just wondering, I saw the new version of HTC Sense (v3.0) on the HTC Evo 3D and was wondering if the Wildfire S would be getting it too?
Any ideas?
Normaly yes
Sent from my Legend using XDA Premium App
Afraid hTc released a statement when show off sense 3.0 on the sensation that it's only on high end dual-core phones that will have sense 3.0, even not the new desire S . So no way wilfire S will get it, it comes with sense 2.1 even then it's still so low spec struggle with this same ending as wildfire now just a flame .
No Wildfire S will not get Sense 3.0, becaurse of the slower CPU, it will not run it (Like the 3D Homescreens). However some parts of Sense 3.0 will be portet to Wildfire S/Desire S and Incredibel S, but this is going to becalled Sense 2.2 or 2.5

[Q] HTC Sense 3.0 full port on Desire?

Is there any ROM available for HTC Desire which has fully ported Sense 3.0, I mean that 3d animation of home screens and all?
please let me know!
Yes there is, if you looked in the development section or used search, you would find the Cool 3D sense 3.0 rom.

Do you mean a port of last 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 from desire S ?
i hope i will be out soon, since i am not completely satisfied with 2.3.3 sense portings performances ( 2.3.5 should be faster )
Shouldn't be any difference perforamce wise. There is no sense 3.0 rom which has android 2.3.5 not even the official one.

Sensation Rom for desire HD

Is there a HTC sensation Rom that works on the desire HD?
If it dose is there lots of bugs and should I wait for a bit?
Plenty of sense 3 and 3.5 roms in the rom section.
You should check out Virtuous Unity which is a port of the Sensation. I'm running the latest which is 2.37 and its been nothin but fast and smooth with virtually no bugs. I highly recommend it.

My understanding is that it wont, Paul form Modaco had quite a time squeezing the sense 3.0 onto the DHD, saying that they got the last sense rom onto the Desire so don't give up just yet.

I'm not sure what you mean by slightly changed?
Eventually it will be released by HTC as an official update (I assume, if they went to the effort of making it?).
The new ARHD, Leedroid and few others are based off the official DHD 3.06.405.1 which is Android 2.3.5 plus Sense 3.0 (designed for DHD) which is from HTC.
That modaco one I linked to before uses the same base as these other roms but is much closer to stock.
Slightly, stuff missing from 3.0 on sensation because HTC say it can't work. I know that was a leak but it shows intent for an official update.

Why no fully functional ICS and Sense 4 when there is one for HTC Desire C

HI Guyz,
I am not a dev. So please pardon me if i am wrong. When i visited a mobile shop to get a new mobile for my cousin,
1. I saw HTC Explorer , which in configuration is wayyyyyyy below desire. But i was awestruck with the smoothness of it. The appdrawer, swiping between homescreens, widgets etc. but i cannot have the same smoothness even with the official sense 1.9 ? Why is that ?
2. I saw HTC Desire C which is based on 600 MHz Cortex-A5. WTF. ? It has ICS. I can sense that ICS will be very laggy in the handset but my question is how this weak chipset has fully functional ICS and Sense 4.0 ? I still feel HTC Desire is very powerful and capable enough to run ICS. !!
Thanks,
Karthik
I'm running nikez ICS and it is very smooth - does not have sense though.

You could try to download desire c rom, change all "desire c" string to "desire" and see if it works...
lol, it's not so simple to port a rom, it's a different architecture of chip, different screen resolution, different drivers... etc etc...
Like if you run a game on a quadcore with full resolution and the same on a pentium4 with 640x480.. do you understand a little?
I think that the progress in ICS and JB is fantastitc, so appreciate the dev's work and don't pretend too much.

Thanks for your reply and please dont be obnoxious when you reply to someone. Its not that I doubt the devs. What i am trying to say is when a 600 mhz powered device can run ICS, why not ours (out of the box. just with minor tweaks) like transition from Froyo to GB. ?? I was totally upset to see ICS in Desire C rather than mine. I hope we will have fully functional ics/jb not without our excellent devs. !!

Ok, the fact is also that desire c has htc's drivers, our desire hwa was written from scratch by evervolv team, so it isn't an official released properly functioning.
It's correlated with the problem that cyanogenmod don't support it for cm9.
There are a few different ICS roms that work really well and smoothly for the Desire. BCM is based on CM9 but nikez rom and sandvolds rom are not. The only problem I have encountered is video playback issues which can be solved my using mx or rockplayer. Otherwise imo the desire ICS roms are quicker than GB. The devs have done a great job porting these to desire.

Wait... I believe that who tried mildwild 4.3 can say that is quicker, faster (maybe not smoother) rom for desire. With the option of choosing where to put apk and data of each app (if in internal or ext) I can open frequently used app in a second, camera Miui app is perfect and it has no bugs. The only benefits that I saw in ICS was running heavy games with good frame rate (the same game is laggy in GB) and using 4.0+ apps. But so far I found ics and jb rom slower (repeat I mean opening apps and overall quickness). Btw the job by evervolv team and nikez is fantastic and I guess that JB development will go furrher and better than ics

Since Shaky stop developing his Sense 4.0 ROM, this side of the HTC desire development has stopped. The ROM, though in alpha, was working brilliantly well. Everything was smooth, and there were many thing working. Why did shaky stop? That build has so much potential. I really hope that he is still developing his rom in secret, so that he makes a "surprise stable full version" release.

He had a very good reason to stop - impatient noobs who didn't care to read his OP or even consider his numerous attempts to control the thread. So now you can find all those people who pushed him to the edge and don't be shy clicking thanks button on their posts as a way to thank them for their hard work

I didn't even notice that Shaky deleted his XDA account. I'm a bit worried about him. What happened?
So, if shaky stopped developing, does that mean that the Desire will never get a full version of the 4.0 Sense, even if it can run it very smoothly?
Begging the devs won't help...
I want this port so much that I'm willing to take Linux classes and to port it myself.
Sooo, is any developer kind and willing enough to continue shaky's work? I know this sounds like begging, but many Desire users really want the 4.0 Sense.
To prevent noobish spamming, like shaky had, devs could just release a full version when it's done.
Please XDA Devs, make our dreams come true.
