MyTouch 3G with Cyanogen rooted Android 2.2 (Froyo) rom

This is the original MyTouch 3G (also known as the HTC Magic 32B). If you're currently on an unrooted MyTouch running Android 1.6 (Donut) and are wondering if it's impossible to run Android 2.2 (Froyo) on such limited hardware (192 MB of RAM, for example), this shows you can run 2.2 on it just fine (it's no speed demon, but it's functionally fast enough).

Will it include Multi touch?

[aysiubuntu]

@pivotmasterfilms Yes, but only on certain applications. I think there's multi-touch on Browser, in the 3D Gallery, and on Google Maps. There doesn't seem to be a way to turn off the zoom buttons on Maps, though, even though multi-touch works for zooming.

what ext do you have and what are your partitions

[aysiubuntu]

@reyese2423 I don't have any Ext partition. It's just straight-up FAT32 on the SD card with compcache, as shown. No swap partition either.

Hi! I installed the same rom, but how do i configurate this lock screen??

Thx!

[aysiubuntu]

@Spunzelfunz Go to Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Input settings. There are only a few lockscreen options, but I hope that helps.

[banstaman]

@SitUpComedy It is DOG-SLOW and it's terrible on battery, at least for me it is.

[SitUpComedy]

If you have a MyTouch 3G there is an official download for android 2.2 now! Haha

How did you get Cyanogen? I received Froyo 2.2 over the air waves but I didnt recieve Cyanogen.

[arjl880]

[gk3og]

[pdgonzalez11]

What are the apps you have on the bottom of the home screen? i recognize facebook and opera....is the other one ubuntu?!?

[Flamingo266]

@weehooherod yes but when tmobile gives the people the update, it will screw up you whole pfone if it already has 2.2 already installed on it. and i would rather have a officaial 2.2 update rather than some fake version of it, but thats just me

[weehooherod]

@Flamingo266 CM6 is Froyo, with loads of optimizations. Its much better than any over the air update t mobile will release.

[Flamingo266]

and if u already rooted, i would unroot NOW!
