AOSP only, not Sense. You can of course try it though, most likely will fail or cause FCs to the point where you can't do anything LOL.
It worked fine on Virtuous, however the phone button gave me
"this application isnt currently installed on your phone"
Which is understandable because of the HTC dialer, thanks for the upload though.
Ya sorry I should of specified

Hey y'all! I did a whole guide of using the Vanilla MMS app on HTC Sense, it was a SUCCESS! Soo now, I was wondering if someone could see if the DIALER on the Vanilla ROM can work with the HTC Sense ROM.
So basically, I am needing someone to Extract the Vanilla (or other ROM) Dialer and put it on the Sense UI ROM. Somehow, my phone has different settings, so I can do this myself.
If you find out, please provide the APK and a guide if possible!!
This should be fairly easy and possible. Should be just like porting the MMS on Vanilla to HTC Sense! I need testers! Thanks guys!
Hope you like my guide on Vanilla MMS on HTC Sense! thanks all!
PS. Is it possible for Vanilla Gallery to work on Sense UI? I will be testing this tomorrow, also, I will keep this thread updated! Thanks!!
Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!
Anyone know how to BOLD the Title? I kinda FAILED at it! hhahah thanks guys!
I will test anything you want i HATE the sense dialer!

I can't remember now, but a while ago I used the contacts.apk and phone.apk from an aosp rom (don't remember which one) on a sense rom (not sure which one either, maybe it was Tainted Vanilla).
You can try ripping those apks from and eclair (not froyo) rom and seeing if they work, or download the old Tainted Vanilla rom (maybe even one of the new ones) and see which dialer they use.

maybe rip the contacts.apk and phone.apk from CyanogenMod-6.1 for Vision :: V6.1.0-RC2 and give that a shot.
btw: you can download the rom, un-zip them and navigate to system/app/ and grab the apk's from there, That is what I did for the vanilla Mms.apk
thanks Wheeliest! You never disappoint me! hah
Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!

Cool! thanks for the support guys! A little mistake I did.. i didn't copy the Contacts.apk haha soo if someone can copy that and maybe the lib file like shortlived says! thanks guys! lets make this into a reality!
edited because i found my mistake....also any luck?
Here is what ive gotten to work so far... I found a replacement dialer here http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/59459-replace-htc-dialer-dialerone-vanilla-clone.html
Download that file there then take these steps
1. change file name to com.android.htcdialer.apk
2. get your phone into recovery and mount the /system
3. adb push com.android.htcdialer.apk /system/app/
4. restart phone and your good to go.
be warned this does not get you the stock dialer. This is a clone type app which does look very similar but it has a few bugs. the main ones being it still uses the htc contacts app to add info and whatnot. i will play with this some more and see if i can't get it to work better by changing over the contacts.apk however I see a LOT of things all tied together with sense so i'm not sure how much more we will be able to do. it might be eaiser to just make a better clock/weather/animations and drop the sense ui all together.
My god.
["b] initiates the bold and ["/b] terminates it. (get rid of the " when ur acutally doing it)
why would u [b/] and then type ur message?

I'm not a huge fan of Sense in general, but the Sense camera app is imo much better than the stock one so I was wondering if it was possible to flash the EVO or Incredible camera on an AOSP and be able to use the camera app. I tried searching the forums for this one, but nothing turned up. Thanks guys!

Ha I knew as soon as I posted it someone was going to suggest Skyraider Athena. I'm using cyanogenmod 7 nightlies right now and love it, but just wish I could flash the sense camera over it - i guess I'm kinda of particular.

Try installing this with Astro/ES/Root Explorer.
Disclaimer: I am NOT a dev. I pulled this from a ROM zip I had on my computer. If something happens to your phone because of this, not my fault. That said, give it a shot
I know CM6 has tap to focus in the camera app. Not the sense camera, but a much better stock one. You could even tap to focus taking video. Maybe it will make it to CM7 sometime down the road.
It wont work

Yeah didn't work for me either. I found a zip file on another forum...going to try flashing that in about a half hour. I'll let you know if it works. If it does, I will post the file on here.
Alright sorry about that. Thought it was worth a shot lol

Nope, didn't work. It was designed to replace the camera on a sense rom with the EVO version, but figured I'd give it a try anyway.
Guess someone has to code it
good luck finding a solution. that was my main reason i couldn't stay with an aosp rom.. the sense cam is much better. hopefully someone could code it to work.
PGleo86 said:

I'm going to say no because the evo sense camera is based on HTC frame work which is incompatible with ASOP framework. Then again, I could be wrong.

same reason for me...I know IncredibleDoes had an AOSP ROM with the Sense camera, I just wish there was a way to make an update.zip or a working .apk for every AOSP rom.
It's been done on the nexus one, on Enomther's TheOfficial NexusOne rom. There is an update.zip for adding the HTC cam, and restoring the stock cam. Do a diff on these update zips, and try to find the differences (most likely found in framework files), and apply them to the rom of your choosing.
This may require some smali/baksmali know-how, but it's achievable.
Original Thread
HTC Cam
Stock Cam
NOTE! DO NOT FLASH THESE ZIPS, THEY PROBABLY (read: MOST LIKELY) WILL NOT WORK. You have been warned.
If you want to flash it, do so with a nandroid backup of your current rom on hand.
PS This may have already been done for CM on the nexus, but I can't remember correctly where (or if) I actually saw it.
There are supposed to be nice replacement camera apps in the market, although I haven't tried any of them.

I might give this a shot, def prefer the Sense camera. Can I verify the link though, both download htcmusic_2.14.1.zip and have the HtcMusic.apk in them
Fixed the links in my post.
The camera requires some hooks/drivers in the kernel, so a ziggy kernel may work, or you'd need to talk to enomther. I would attempt this myself, but school starts tomorrow, and I have no more free time.
I want to flash the "Stock Messaging App" from the "Sidekick 4G Stock Rom". Can I flash this? I really like the UI of the messaging app, and I would love to use it on my phone. Considering it is a apk in general, I'm still unsure because it runs on a different framework. Can someone help me with these questions. Is it possible to flash it? Can someone help me?
Phone: T-Mobile G2 - HTC Desire Z
System: MIUI 1.9.23 by OsiMood
Flashed: Extended Setting and Superuser Beta 3.0
Thanks you guys! I expect good answers considering XDA-Developers is the best place for these types of questions!

Hmm, not sure if this would work. I haven't flashed apps from other phones, but I guess you could make nandroid backup and then sideload it. If it starts freaking out, just restore your nandroid. My guess is that the app will just force close on you.

Don't think it'll work like you said different frameworks. If they were the same you could just copy the .apk to your G2, and open it with a file explorer and install.
Since they're different theres some converting to do I'm sure...

Is your current rom deodexed? That is a must in order for it to work.
It may not be. Is there a quick way to tell? Is there a simple process to deodex? The rooting process went fine, and I assumed this opened the phone to all mods, but I must have been wrong. I'll search for a good link to deodex unless you have a better suggestion. Thanks.

deodexing the ROM requires knowledge of using android kitchen and in a sense re-building the ROM, it's fairly simple if you know what you're doing. a good way to check if you'er rom is deodexed is with root explorer, and check out system/apps and if u see double things like MMS.apk and MMS.odex that odex, in deodex you would just see the mms.apk
+1 andybones.
The first question I guess would be are you running a custom rom? If not then you are not deodexed.

Yep, the .odex files are there, so I am NOT deodexed. Seems like it might not be worth the trouble to deodex. although I do have ROM manager backup and can reinstall if I severely screw up. I'm running the rooted 2.3.3 verizon gingerbread.
OK, Switched to VU 2.3.9 and now all seems to work fine! Thanks.

Try this one
I get " application not installed".
Did you reboot after installing it?
Or try fixing permissions?
I have done both. I also tried copying it to /system/app and setting permissions there. Still no luck.
Hmm, weird. I know that's the one I used on GB, too
I found version 2.2 here that works, however version 2.0 and 2.5 do not. I wonder if it is something on the build.prop on this particular ROM.
Hmm, possibly. That's cool you found one that works!
Thanks for the assist! I appreciate the help with my noob problem.
No prob. I just flashed Jellybread tonight and I have a handful of apps that are giving me the same error :/
