Root [Boost Mobile] Will Warp ROMs work with Warp 4G?

[Nickolasj80]

I'm curious if anyone has tried to flash one of the roms in this forum to a Warp 4G?

Or would it just fail to flash or brick the device?

Thanks

The newer ones would fail to flash because of a failsafe that we added into the updater-script, however some of the older ones might not have it and brick your phone. The Warp and Warp 4G may be related but they aren't the same, so it wouldn't work either way.

I would NOT recommend it, the hardware is too different and would either end in a chaotic blend of bug fury, some or all features not to work or worse as Skinny said a bricked device.

It's just not a good idea unless you don't care/can afford to brick it.

NO. Never will. Of warp is a msm8655 CPU and warp4g is msm8960 . Not even close. Memory addresses are different. Kernel offsets. So on. It would probably overwrite a critical part of your nand or even boot loader. Don't even chance it. Unless you have the money to burn

*Looks at wallet*

NOPE

Thanks all for the replies and keeping me from doing something stupid

I guess I was just grasping at straws because development of kernels/roms has all but fizzled out for the 4G model.
