Download HTC Desire S Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread ROM

Things happen really quick in the Android world and lately Paul O Brien, Android hacker and Modaco Forum administrator, has released a HTC Desire S ROM. It is believed that this ROM has been extracted from a test RUU dump of the phone that hasn’t seen consumer hands until now. For those who don’t know, HTC recently announced several Android devices with old names and a new S predecessor such as Incredible S, Desire S, Wildfire S etc.

According to Paul, the ROM is complete with no changes [everything stock, including brandware and bloatware] based on a test RUU of HTC Desire S / HTC Saga। It is Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread and comes loaded with boot animation. We believe that noobs like us, who rely on flashing completed ROMs, won’t be finding this very interesting but ROM chefs and modders might juice the right bacon out of this RUU based Desire S ROM.

Here is what Paul has to say about this release:

• This is the full ROM with no changes EXCEPT to remove identifying watermarks (at the request of my source)
• It’s Gingerbread 2.3.2
• The boot image is included

This is obviously for developer use.

You can download HTC Desire S Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread based ROM from here and then do whatever you feel like doing with it। Please note that this ROM isn’t yet ready for you prime time usage and we can’t guarantee if it works stable or turns your phone into an effing zombie. In our opinion, you should wait for the developers to integrated parts of this ROM to their upcoming releases that are in a zip file and easy to flash / install on your handset.

Android 2.3 and Windows Phone 7 Simulator OS for iPhone

OSFaker is a new Cydia (jailbreak) tweak for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad that allows you to simulates both Android and Windows Phone 7 operating system in your iOS devices. However, WP7 was just a recent addition in the tweak. Well, this particular Magic can only made possible by Cydia. OSFaker is pretty much as like the Android theme or WP7 theme enabled app for iPhone as it’s a Cydia tweak and you just have to installed it, nothing else. More over, after the break.

The tweak gets improved in this 2.0 version which added features; Retina display support, a proper Android 2.3 Gingerbread User Interface, new apps, fixes WP7 web browser, fixes camera app for iPod that eventually get crashes, new and improved loader screen, and other bug fixes.

OSFaker can be downloaded from the Cydia Store for free under BigBoss repository or using thishttp://cydia.myrepospace.com/Polarbear repo.

Online And Offline Map Viewer For Android

The days of fumbling with a map while you’re driving are long over. Applications such as Google Maps and Waze have made getting from point A to point B easier, but what happens when you find yourself in a “no coverage” area? From my own recent experience I can tell you, it is no fun driving for 20 miles only to realize you are going the wrong way (and me with no backup map in place.)

This Multi-lingual application can not only guide you to your intended destination, but can also help you locate your parked car, one of my favorite features.

• Online maps (OSM, Google, Yahoo, Bing, OVI/Nokia, … actually 39 types)
• Offline maps (SQLiteDB format, updated TrekBuddy TARed format)
• Direct download Online -> Offline (defined area – rectangle, path, state)
• Track recorder (GPS logger)
• POI handling => import, export, categories, guiding
• Complete support for offline Geocaching (import PocketQuery files)
• Parking service (BETA)
• Use Google Street View, Google Navigation
• Support for Bluetooth GPS
• Work with c:geo, GPS Status
