Bummed out by the lack of development for the CDMA Wildfire S, I took matters into my own hands. I decided to port Jerryscript's incredible Optimus V rom, BACKside, to the Wildfire S. I used Simonsimon34's SStock for the base. The result is BACKfire. This is still an alpha, but is getting close to beta status. My wife currently uses this as her daily driver.
Screenshot...
Current status: Alpha 5.2
Added Bobz WFS v.3 kernel (Up to 864Mhz)
Added a2sd support (No need for Link2sd)
Added VMRoms app
Confirmed working...
data, sms, calls, wifi, gps
Non working...
camera, camcorder, YouTube (audio works, no video)
Untested...
bluetooth, headphones
DISCLAIMER!!!!
Neither I nor Android Central can be held responsible if this rom bricks your phone, trashes your data, spray paints your dog, gets you fired, or moves to Mexico with your girlfriend. Any of your actions are ENTIRELY your responsibility.
Installation instructions....
Download to your sd card
reboot into recovery
make a backup
make a backup (just making sure you heard me...)
wipe cache, dalvik, data, boot, and system
flash the rom
flash gapps
reboot
wait (can take several minutes)
once booted and signed in, from the homescreen do the following:
menu-settings-cyanogenmod settings-performance-ok-cpu settings. To prevent damage to your cpu, change the min to 480, and the max to 787. I'll have more sane defaults set in the next build.
Open the play store and install A2SDGUI (will be included in next build) then run it and select "apps on sd" and "dalvik on sd"
reboot
Enjoy!
