Hi Guys apologies if people know about this found this elsewhere but below is a link to a video of HTC desire (black T-mobile) running sense and live wallpapers i know that in terms of specs its far superior to the hero,but has anyone got thier hands on a leak of this rom ? is there one available ? and what would be the chances of porting this to hero with live wallpapers or using the base perhaps to build an AOSP 2.1 rom for hero with live wallpapers ?

EDIT:Ok so yes there is an alph 7 release that has been ported to nexus one over at modaco and the guys there have a release candidate rom over there that there also working on porting so could we get this on our Hero's ?
The desire has a different resolution so it's probably not worth the hassle to port it over.
The Desire ROM isn't really portable to a Hero or Legend. Just use the Legend ROM for that.
The hardware platform is different, the resolution and all the graphics in Sense are (probably) different.
You can use any of the AOSP 2.1 ROMS (like Kagudroid 1.2 or 1.3) and try Live Wallpapers on there. What is working works, what doesn't is because of hardware restraints.
CKDroid (or something) managed to get some more working by playing with the OpenGL drivers, but anything more than that is simply impossible on the hero hardware.

that desire isnt even running 2.1....
Hello all,
I was wondering if it's possible to port the HTC Sense of the HD2 (wich includes the music CoverFlow-like thing) to HD Mini (HVGA screen resolution). And how should I do it? And do it need to flash everytime I want to see results or can I make a cab that mods the Sense you already have installs and which just adds the functionality?
Please help, new to this
Thanks!
MadMatt
No one who can help me how I can port HTC Sense from HD2 to HD Mini?
Hello people,
I don't really know if this is the right section for this question, but however I found out that the samsung galxy mini has the same resolution and stuff like the htc wildfire. My question is if we can port a rom from the galaxy mini to our wildfire.
I'll try to set a galaxy mini rom on mine ( at least some app I need for testing )
If someone knows really stuff about it, please comment.
Cause I really like to have the clean (like) rom on my mobile, but lots of stuff from cm just is resized and not always in good shape.
Thank you all for your time
Do you have ported all?
uhmm its all nice and stuff to request a port for a rom,
but we already have sense 3.5 sense 2.1 in the making
to add another rom and especially a touchwiz rom, that will take a long time to get booted like with sense 3.5 and sense 2.1
yeah no succes
Yeah I understand that, but the apps like 3d gallery from cm 6 ( yeas I use old stuff xD ) fc my screen and the mini has the same resolution.
But I don't know how to break open a ROM to get all the apps out of it.
But ty anyway xD
We got touchwiz so why the hell not? I'd suggest basing the launcher off the HTC Flyers gingerbread launcher, perfect for the nexuses phablet style

yes but TW isn't a rom porting..and for sense we have to port all the rom because only the UI it could lackthe presence of proprietary frameworks i think..also in the gnex section,the sense porting is very very slow..and after all,based on a port of a port of a port originally by trip'n'raver...are we ready for another port of a port for this device??
I don't know much about programming so I can't be much help but does it have to be a perfect port? I know sense is intrusive, as the sense stripped roms for the Vivid all have issues and ui elements they can't overcome. But I think from my standpoint making a sense clone would be the best route. Basically building a nexus 7 sense launcher that supports sense widgets and you're half way there. For the rest? A custom cm themed lockscreen and a cm10 sense 4 theme and boom head shot!

you are right,but as far as i know it's not possible have the launcher of sense working with widgets e dependecies without porting entire fw..being the sense UI closed-source,to have it working a dev should re-write its code from zero,because he can't code without sources,and the rewriting of parts of UI it's a very hard work (and not speak of the time it can requires...)
just my 2 cents,wait for a more deeper reply from a more knowledged person..
The ironic thing is I'm mixed on the usefulness of sense anyway, but intrigued by the porting process. I do know about the hurdles I mean on my phone for instance, no developer has been able to support the greatly improved sense 4 to it without breaking in mic call volume due to framework differences and embedded code in the at&t rom. And no one knows how to get the widgets to work either.
I've been wanting to start learning how to develop, this might be a good place to start

yeah,a good place for start,but veeeery hard..owned a sense device only once,a desire hd,after that i haven't owned\tried any others..i like sense,but i prefer to not have a proprietary UI,it's too much ram-eating and in any way should perform less than how it could be in an aosp rom..good luck!
CodeNameSammy new ROM. Check it out

TouchWiz is far less integrated in the framework and other apps than sense.
A lot of sense relies on other parts of sense, you can't just hack in the launcher into a AOSP rom.
My experience with sense is that you either have it or you don't (imo senseless roms are still sense just themed)
Look at the sense roms on Samsung devices like the Nexus S and Galaxy S phones and you'll see they are full ports, mostly functional. The CodenameSammy ROM is hardly TouchWiz at all, mostly themed, sounds and the launcher + a few apps
Not bashing the codenamesammy rom, just saying that porting sense will require a lot more work
But sense ROMs generally work better on sense devices (as in sense ports to older devices) although I would like to see it here
Hopefully HTC decide to bring out a tablet with the same resolution, sense and a tegra 3 That would make life easier
I don't mean to offend anyone, just giving my opinion on this Peace guys :highfive:
Sense is a a mess i am aware of the that. It's like recently I wanted to change launchers on my vivid. Well the stock sense launcher still runs in the background to control your lockscreen shortcuts, so your using more ram and battery to use a third party launcher. So I freeze the sense launcher, and guess what? Lockscreen shortcuts don't work. So I the aosp lockscreen is still on the rom, I read up and disable the sense lockscreen, everything seems to be working fine, then someone calls... And my screen stays locked and doesn't change. Why? Because the sense lockscreen stays locked when someone calls, but the sense lockscreen displays info from the dialer. So yeah pretty much you have sense or you don't.
I wonder how many components from the flyers honeycomb rom would work in jelly bean? It's pretty much straight tablet mode plus sense nothing extra

It works on your version of sense too Don't worry about where its been posted it works universally iirc
Its out dated imo, waiting for sense 4 tablet interface

Good deal, thanks for the info, now I don't have to be confined to the sense launcher

Actually there were rumors of a tegra 3 powered 10 inch htc tablet, would be great for porting sense to the nexus but that was in July and there has been little to no talk since.
HTC better know what they are doing next time, the reason I'm using this tablet now is because of how sorry their support and marketing was for the flyer

Can anyone make Launcher of S5 mini compatible with Android 4.3? Arsaw ported S5 launcher, so it can be possible, right?
Reasons of why S5 mini launcher is better for us?
-It designed for 720p screen. So, it uses less RAM than S5 launcher.
I switched to S5 mini weather widget from S5 weather widget, my RAM usage is better now.
-Latest Samsung launcher for 720p screen.
S5 mini weather widget is different from the S5 one. You can check it. S5 mini widget has min. max. temperature of day, S5 hasn't.
Looks like there is no developers to answer. S III is old. I understand now.

Use kitkat version,there's no point of backport to 4.3

why do you think that? I want to use 4.3 on my S3 because of 4.4.2 port is unstable and it's annoying. I think that someone can backport to 4.3 like S5 keyboard and S5 mini weather widget.

I checked out it, still has many problems. It is faster, but not stable. Stock 4.3 is better for me. But I don't know what is better for you.
