Porting cyanagon mod settings to sense roms. - Desire General

Hi,
Is it possible to port the cyanagon mod settings to sense roms as opendesire and defrost have? Ive looked at the update and it seems to an apk file, so would it just be as simple as installing it?
Not sure if this is the right section but it will get the most answers here and im sure other people will want it.
For anyone who hasnt used it before it gives you music controls on the lock screen as well as other goodies.
Im thinking about trying this on the psychosis rom which has rosie removed.
Thanks in advance!

i pushed cmparts and odparts to /system/app, but it doesnt work because the settings menu are different.

Yeah thought that might happen, thanks for trying anyway!

their kernels are different right?
don't think it'll work

CMParts is "just" an interface to many functionality on cm6 rom
this function can be ported to any AOSP rom (this is already done by OpenDesire and Defrost) but is not possible to port on closed source rom like HTC Sense

And it has nothing to do with the kernel.

+1 here i would like to see a sense rom with AOSP
I have already thought this, (I have thought to mix Gingerbread and port sense to it)
But only I can say that is very difficult, because you have to port and modify manually all framework.jar and others.
I tried to do this with AOSP and Froyo 2.2 when there isn't any sense kernels, and finally I couldn't do it because it give a lot of faults before boot.
But I'm interested in it to do this later (gingerbread+sense)

Customs Roms

Im not a noob with rooting and different roms and stuff. But is there anyway to take parts of roms and combine them and make a personalized custom rom with everything you want on it? like for example can i take the mms.apk from a sense 3.0 rom and put in on the CM7 rom or an ultimate droid rom?
Definitely possible, .apk's should be easy to transfer over.
This is off the top of my head, but you should be able to extract the ROM .zip file, find the .apk you want, then just put it on your SD card and run it using a file manager or terminal emulator (harder to use).
As always I would suggest you fully backup, when you're doing stuff like this it's experimental, so it's very possible the mms.apk will not play well with your current ROM and may force close. If that's the case, it may need other files to run (those files would be in the original ROM) and that would become a project that I wouldn't be able to help you with. You would then need to really, merge those two ROM's together in order to get that .apk to work.
Even so, I'm not sure on how possible it is as some manufacturers like HTC make it extremely difficult to use their app's without having an HTC Sense ROM.
Yea i tried that with root explorer and it didnt work the apk wouldnt install im now guessing thats because it was a sense app and isnt compatible with my rom. But yea i was looking into finding out how to combine roms more in depth like that. but i guess thats out of both our leagues. thanks for the help though
Take a Sense 2.1/3.0 hybrid ROM and run the Senseless script, use search to find it. See if that works for Sense 3.0 Messaging on AOSP feel

I wrote a desensitize script for SkyRaider 4 (Sense 1.0) found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13667433&postcount=8499
I have NOT tried it on a sense 2.1/3.0 rom, but it will work as long as the file names are the same. Do a nandroid backup before you try it though, just in case!

Sense MMS apks will definitely not work on CM7 because it needs dependencies from the HTC frameworks, I would try what others have suggested and try to get a Sense rom and in other words "DeSense" it by removing some of the HTC apps. You can also try running CM7 and installing a 3rd party SMS app from the Market (like GO SMS Pro) if you are not happy with the Stock Android SMS app.

Took the words right out of my mouth lol

ok is there a way i can desensitize the rom on my computer or i have to do it on my phone? and now my next question more into how to combine roms is say for example i like the sense 3.0 unlock screen is there anyway that i could use that as my unlock screen but then keep my ultimate droid rom the way it normally is?
Not sure about desensitizing but I do know you cannot use a sense 3.0 lockscreen on an aosp rom. Although if you're wanting a fancy lockscreen, I'd recommend MIUI, or widgetlocker (works on any rom).

Mod specific

Hi, i know we have a lot of mods for various roms like runny and arhd, my question is..can we use these mods on other roms that use the same sense etc,
I only ask because i know its luck of the draw if they do,for example i downloaded an ics theme for runny that was for another rom, the original theme seemed to leaved when even a small change was done in rctweaks, with this ics theme, the theme remains and is sweet..
Basically a long winded way..
Do the mods work on other roms because of the sense version,asop etc
or is it specific to the framework as i know when you use the kitchen it is based on that
Thanks in advance,probably is a stupid question yes
I don't work on any ROM's. Other than for me.
Rule of thumb
Sense specific mods won't work on AOSP/CM7.
CM7/AOSP specific mods won't work on Sense.
Backup & Flash, the only way for sure to know.
-
Hi andy,yep i understand you cant mod cm to sense and vice versa etc, but i mean
for example,ive got a theme for runny...but im running virtuious,both running sense 3.5.
some work for each other and some dont?
just curious to why
There could be a million & 1 reasons.
Framework differences, Sense version, kernel, installed system apps. The list could go on.
Your best bet is to make a backup, flash/apply the mod and see if it works. If not, restore.
Lol I use that method a lot, ill keep doing so

[Q] ARHD Custom lockrings

Hi,
i'm using Android Revolution HD 6.3.1 with awesome success - thanks mike1986.
i was looking at leedroid custom rom and noticed you can have custom lockrings for his rom. i tried on ARHD 6.3.1 and the phone got to the lock screen but that was it.
i've searched the ARHD dev thread but found no answer, can custom lockrings be put onto ARHD, and is the a guide on how to make them, or a list of them?
thanks

That is due to the new base the rom is based off of. That version the coding changed and the older lockscreens don't work.
ahh, thanks, makes sense.
i'll wait and see what happens unfortunaltey coding does not run in my blood!
Yeah they changed the code for the HTC proprietary files that have not been cracked yet.
oh right, i thought it was just modifiying something, i guess with ICS in betas everywhere, this might not be looked it.

Oh no do t think that. There are those that don't use CM based roms. Me for example. Some really like sense. I use it as the OEM bases have better drivers then the AOSP. To be honest I have been able to get the old lockscreens to work on the new base but am looking to make sure there are no issues. I run a senseless rom for the most part so I am not sure if it works with all of sense still installed.
cool, i'll keep an eye out, see what happens.
thanks very much for your help
Keep the good working
we all wait for your work
thank you
hopefully soon...

[Q] Sense 4.0

Are there any dinc roms that have Sense 4.0?
Or is there a way to find and add Sense 4.0 to my current rom?

There is one for the DInc. It's not very far along and got abandoned months ago. It's called Luxe. It doesn't have working WiFi. Data works I think and phone calls. Not sure how much more tho. I think sdcard kinda works and sound may or may not. The link is on the 3rd page of the development forums.
Adding Sense 4.0 to your current ROM will be next to impossible. It's better to port a Sense 4.0 from a different device to your device.

How would I go about doing that?
I'm not familiar with coding and only use ROMs posted here.

Take my advice. Don't try it. I should have said impossible. Once you add the sense 4.0 framework and replace the older framework, your device will not boot then there's a lot of replacing and edits going on. If you check that thread over for LUXE, I think that's the best place to start as it's a bootable Sense 4.0 ROM for the DInc.
