Re: New Touch Project.

L3GION:

I successfully ported the SYS from a leaked (19588 ?) rom to the leaked Sprint touch rom. As you may have figured out, porting the SYS (as covered in another thread) was fairly easy. The result, was anything but pleasing.

The biggest (initial) issue seem to be that the default resolution for the Diamond is different than it is for the Touch / Vogue. So, while the (SYS) porting went fine, the result was a phone that would boot, but most of what came up was scaled in a way that I could only see roughly 25% of the entire desktop.

I dropped into PPCKitchen chat and those who were available were willing to help, but ... and this is where I fail ... it appears that one needs to be able to pose questions in a relatively specific way, to get the appropriate answer. More than anything, I chalk this up to the all of the stuff the cooks have covered. Then, (in my case) I walk in and ask something that might be analogous to:
"I built a car and it doesn't run the way I expected"
"I did all of the wiring in my new house and when I flick the switch the light doesn't go on"

The SYS porting is covered briefly here:

with q & a in this thread:

If you've already been in these threads and posted questions; apologies as I didn't read through them for your questions (not that I could have answered them, anyway). As Colonel likes to say, just before he kicks me from chat, get out b00n.

Best regards,
