Right firstly - I'm not a Rom Porter at all...i use linux only as a basic/intermediate user. This is placed in Dev forum as hopefully it can be developed by us...and maybe help some of us learn a little
But i am looking for a bit of guidance
I used - dsixda's HTC Android Kitchen From this XDA Thread
I noticed that an option that said "Rom Porting" thought i would try this out as a basis to start.
The way it seems to work is you choose a rom that currently works on your device and then choose the rom that you want to port - it does some stuff (technical word) and hey presto it works.
So i chose the great CM7 (nightly 50) which works perfect on my Incredible S
Then I got OMGB for Incredible 2 - thought this would work as they are basically the same device.
Ive found that once i wiped the phone, date/cache etc ... i now have no signal ... i did when i installed without wiping the phone -
probably to do with the whole wcdma radio i would assume. or the network settings as its gonna be for North America and not UK.
So this is something im going to be looking into - just as small project - I'm testing on my own phone
Will slowly be looking at various problems as i see them or as I find help to fix -
Hoping this will become a little Incredible S community project - help from Devs would be appreciated!

Download Vivo_signed_omgb.zip
UPDATE ---
Download vivo_signed_081611_083825.zip
Ok - i managed to get signal and 3G on o2 UK - just a case of editing the build.prop file (from what i can tell) - used CM7 build.prop to compare.
Edit - god mode won't work as inc S isn't officially supported.. Will aim to remove this apk
UPDATE --
So i removed the God Mode apk - and rom stats -
I also experimented at replacing settings.apk with the one from CM7 - works...but does FC on wireless and network settings - I will keep it in the .zip just for documentation
But i did have signal but no 3G as i couldnt configure APN - doh!
So settings is still Work in Progress
Download vivo_signed_081711_061119.zip
also have this one - this one doesnt FC - does have God Mode and Rom Stats removed
Download vivo_signed_081711_065307.zip
I also have to always enter my apn details - does anyone know where these are stored in a rom - so i can put service provider settings in the rom automatically
The below picture is what needs to be taken out - and an option for 3g or GSM
UPDATE 2
Download vivo_signed_081711_084838.zip
I have also noted that without GodMode installed the power notification widget isnt on the phone
So i have included Notification Toggle - to give users that power widget - atleast until i figure out how to include the native one
Still looking at tidying the mobile settings up - but appears to be working, i will run this rom now for a day or so - see what errors come
the settings need to be changed slightly... To remove the vzw radio stuff
Up the OC Daemon to 1.5ghz - cant find the daemon on pc - but can on phone - how to edit?
