[Q] stock htc sense browser on cyanogenmod 6 - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to add the stock HTC sense browser cyanogenmod. There is certain files that the android browser wont download. I love cyanogen but if I can't resolve this issue I have to go back to sense

This is going to sound cliche but READ the OP on the Cyanogen Thread!!!!
No Sense AT ALL.
A lot of the Sense goodies are based on a framework, consider this architecture of the software, that is Sense.
Therefore, you're asking to get Sense on Cyanogen Mod and he explicitly states that he will not touch sense.
Cyanogen Mod is built off of AOSP Android Open Source Project
Sense = HTC Software which is NOT Open Source. (not to be @#!$ed with).
**Have you tried other browsers from teh Market to see if they work on what you need to download?
Let me know if you have questions later.

I did read the op in the thread and understood that. My question was could I, me, myself install it afterwards, is it even possible? Yeah I tried dolphin browser but still no go. I've gone back to sense until I find a solution.

Nexus One ROM?

Is it possible to run the Nexus One ROM on the Desire? I like to use the stock Android experience, and OpenDesire used to provide this but all of the tweaks from Cyanogen mod is changing that.
The simple answer is no. It has to be ported to use on the desire.
I like to think that the cm-mod changes are for the better, but you could eventually use an older version of opendesire, if you used to like it I prefer sense roms myself, but there is several different versions of the aosp compiled roms, have you tried all of them?
Thanks for the replies guys. Good to know.
I've only tried one or two AOSP ROM's - I'll keep trying Any suggestions?
Not really the only other option will probably be to start compiling your own rom for the desire trying to get the completely stock experience, but that requires some skills neither you nor i have i believe

Should i delete...

should i delete all the HTC Sense stuff if i want to install a different launcher such as LaucherProPlus or ADW? If so, what files should be deleted?
Would i get better performance with all the sense stuff uninstalled?
Thanks in advance
there are some scripts on here to remove all the sense files. make sure you install and set the other launcher as default before you remove the sense launcher.
i personally use LauncherProPlus, so i'm using only maybe 10-15% of Sense on my phone, but i haven't uninstalled any sense components and i get great performance? that's my experience anyways.

You do not have to delete the Sense stuff to get those to work, they actually are not compatible and block it anyways. Deleting the Sense/Sprint stuff will not give your phone better performance. Those things are basically just taking up storage space if you aren't using them.

HTC Supersonic :: Cyanogen MOD 6 :: Snap v7.6 CFS :: RA Recovery
thanks both for the reply. In that case then, does anyone know of a ROM out there that has ALL the features of the EVO, such as 4g, camera, wireless tether, etc. But just doesnt have htc sense?
your best bet if you want a "senseless" rom is to pick any sense rom and runt he script located in the post linked in my signature.
It will remove sense all the htc, most known ok to remove apps and most of the sprint apps.
There is also a tool linked that will allow you to change the script easily if you want to keep some of the apps etc.
The only true roms that have no sense are AOSP and none of those have everything working just yet, so this is kinda the best you can get for now.

[Q] HD ROM/Froyo hybrid?

<Delurk> Hi all, a noob here, but reasonably intelligent (aka can use the search engine!) and I have a question.
I'm currently using a stock froyo ROM on my desire, and I like it a lot, however I would like to try my hand at developing a hybrid of the stock froyo with Sense 2.0 - I have tried a heavily modded HD sense ROM and liked it, however I like the stock feel to things.
How can I go about trying to develop this idea??
i.e. Is Sense 2.0 simply an app that is compatible with the latest Froyo build??
And if so how do I go about incorporating it into a build using one of the available kitchens??
Many thanks
<lurk>
You'd have to re-write Sense to work on FroYo - can't see it happening so not really worth trying

sense 2.0?

ok so i searched and searched but could not find a definitive answer for my question. is there a flashable zip to install sense 2.0 on a sense 1.0 rom? like the portrait and landscape rosie and htc hub deal from myn's warm z, on warm2.2 rls5 respectively? i flashed warm z and loved it, despite the lack of 4g, even though i dont use it much, i just prefer to have a rom that runs seamlessly, like my current rls5 setup.
any insight would be helpful.
No.

NO..
sense is not just a launcher or .. some app....
it is deep imbeded into the os...it is too tied into the everything.
Sense needs to be integrated with whatever rom your using

The answer is : no, no, nin, いいえ.
Mikz new rom has sense 2.0 and is very slick/stable. Highly recommend it.
So did it ever fix it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
nope. why do you think it takes a team of professional, full time, fully paid, talented developers (htc) to upgrade a phone? takes quite a bit of work...
I am Not saying this will work, but in this thread they have a flashable.zip first you install the 2.3.3 gingerbread rom (sense 2.1 stripped out) then flash the zip to add sense back in. (Could try just flashing the sense on the 2.3.3 Evo Leak to see if it upgrades)
Now the landsacpe piece dosen't work yet, and there are a few other glitches with 2.3.3 until a kernel is released, but if your bored make a nandroid play around

you should have a working EVO Shift port!

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.

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).
