i wonder if its possible to pull the MIUI lockscreen into a sense rom. i dont like the "click-on-colored-babyish-iphone-icons-style" of MIUI but the lockscreen is awesome!
Any ideas if there is a way to do this?

Run launcher pro with MIUI and you won't have to deal with those "colored-babyish-iphone-icons"

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they still show that style on the app drawer or if placed on the homescrens?
I like a lot of things with the MIUI interface, but the thing that drives me away is the iphone-esque menu when you hit the menu button. I love the phone/dialer though.

MIUI should be enjoyed as a whole product, not in bits and pieces. But I'm sure someone could do it for you.

Laucher Pro will let you replace the icons with whatever ones you want when you put it on the desktop - there are plenty of apps out there that will allow you to change the look of the homescreens - but if it really is the menu system you don't like then hopefully someone can try and port the lockscreen for you
(FYI - here's my Incredible running MIUI and Launcher Pro)

i was thinking of making this exact thread. it would be great to get that lockscreen but I was reading somewhere that it is non-trivial to port it to CM6

Non-trivial? So you're saying it's important to port it to CM6?
If that's the case, it could be ported to MIUI as well, since they are both AOSP roms.
Unless of course you mean trivial, which makes more sense...

Non-trivial in this sense means not easy.From what I have read,the lockscreen is pretty tied in to the Rom.

Yeah, this would be incredible if this was possible. I enjoy MIUI, but it has its pro's and con's. I really LOVE the lock screen, but on the other hand I really am not a fan of all the white/light grey system menus. With the number of people that are obsessed with theming their Android devices I'm surprised there isn't any option to change all those menus to a darker scheme.

Anyone have any luck with a port of miui? I would love to test it

[Q] Classic sense dialer with cyanogenmod

I'm running the latest cyanogenmod on my desire at the moment but the one thing i am missing about the classic htc sense OS is the dialer. I hate hate hate the built in one with cyanogenmod, and miss being able to link contacts, add their Facebook photos as callerid and having their Facebook status displayed when they call. I also miss having the ability to just start typing a name or a number and it searching.
I'm referring to this:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So what I am asking is; is there a way to make this happen?
Thanks in advance!
you MIGHT be able to get a theme to make it look similar to this, but you probably wouldn't get any of the functionality.
agreed
I'm with you 100% velk.
The dialer in the CM is garbage. I'm thinking of switching to MIUI.
I'm running cm6 nightly and I downloaded dialer one from the market , that's a great dialer.. Very similar to htc sense. Try that before switching roms.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Maybe try Dialer one in the market? Not as good as sense dialer but better than stock for sure.
haha, I happen to be the opposite, I'm trying to use aosp dialer on sense roms

haha lol~~
i love Sense dialer but yesterday i found a replacement on my OpenDesire. Try Youlu address book guys, its very clean!! and IMO, sense dialer challenger.
I'm on Cyanogen and I still have Facebook integration in the contacts list.
If you'd be interested, maybe we can write an app to replace the stock dialer... I'm in the process of trying to write a camera app to replace the stock one. I can definitely do the graphics for skinning the app... coding is a bit of another story ;D Might need a crutch for that.
Use Dialer One, as many ppl suggested. It works with no bugs, it is highly customizable and the developer is quite responsive.
I'm using Dialer One on CM 6.1 now, but is there any way to change the 'shortcut' of the standard dialer and make it point to Dialer One (or another dialer)?
I'm using Youlu Address Book and CM6.1 and what I did was dropped a shortcut to Youlu on the desktop, then if you pick it up and drop it in place, you can set a custom icon for it (I chose the phone icon from the Gingerbread icon pack I'm using for ADW Launcher). Then I dropped it down on the favorites bar.
Thanks, that did it! Didn't know the bottom bar was a favourites bar
Yeah, I just have my dialer, app drawer, and sms down there, the things I use the most

You know you can also expand it from 3 to 5 if you want to add a couple more apps.
Rocket dialer seems much better and great customazible
But sense from liberty rom is very nice

[REQ] Rotary Lockscreen...

Is there anyway to port this type of lockscreen to the Epic?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919121
I know that I can use WidgetLocker, and I've already bought it but I don't really like it. It seems to lag, like when i hit thte power button from standby, I see the original ASOP screen first and a second later the widgetlocker rotary pops up.
Anyone have any ideas as to how to address this?

you can get this on Cm6 but right not no devs are willing to do all this work then have to redo it when an official 2.2 is out

If you are rooted you can use the 5 second rule bypass on the widgetlocker advance options.
If you are not rooted then use the homehelper option in the widgetlocker options.
I use no lock with widget locker. It disables the stock lock but does cause a half second lag for the screen to turn on, which doesn't bug me as much. The lag could be caused by my widgets though, not sure
So does anyone know if someone has ported this to work with EB13 or any of the custom roms? I've used to on he CM7 Alpha build, and I was wonderinf if someone took the time to port it. I'd do it myself, but at this point I have little to no knowlegde with any of the languages used to program this stuff.
I'm not sure if this is allowed, but bump haha.

Alternative to HTC sense with no settings button at the bottom?

is there any launcher that would work with the HTC ?, so far i tried ADW, Launcher Pro and GoLauncher and all of the got the anoying settings button at the bottom, is there any way to remove it ?
the reason to why i want a different launcher is that i dont like the horizontal scroll of the app drawer, lame of HTC not to add a vertical option, -.-

Did you try ICS compatible launchers? Like APEX, Nova?
awsome, thought most launchers was ics compatible but that wasent the case, APEX seems to be a keeper, cheers.

Lol, very true.
Human nature I guess, we normally badly crave for what we don't have, then we lost interest once we got it.
Btw, First time Sense user here and I'm liking it at the moment.

This and reconfigurable rows/columns are the only biggies. Widgets in app drawer would be a huge plus too. I imagine someone will start playing with these things soon enough I'd be quite happy with a stock looking launcher with a few more options.

Using Nova launcher on my SGS2, Works like a charm with loads of options.
I hate the fact Sense doesn't allow a lower DPI with such a large screen...

Trying to achieve full AOSP Jellybean UI with Touchwiz based ROMs

Hey guys,
Since CM10/CM9 are still plagued with bugs, the need to stick with a stock Touchwiz ROM persists. However, coming from a Galaxy Nexus, I very much miss the stock AOSP interface.
I know there are plenty of themes available such as THIS ONE & THIS ONE but I still haven't found one that gets the entire UI to replicate the look of AOSP exactly with the proper homescreen icons, apps, notification icons, battery, clock, ICS camera interface, AOSP Messaging interface etc.
Here is what I have so far...
ROM - FreeGS3 R5
Apex Launcher with ICS theme
ICS Blue Mod v3 (changes status bar to be more AOSP like)
Camera ICS
exDialer (with excontacts for AOSP phone interface look/feel)
ICS Keyboard
Even with these mods the look is still a bit off as many apps are still Touchwiz themed when opened and the toggle buttons in the drop down menu are still colored in HD. And I haven't found a fully functioning lockscreen replacement that provides the exact look/feel of AOSP Jellybean without adding lag and/or glitches.
I'm open to any suggestions. If I have to wait for a fully stable CM10 release to achieve all this then so be it, but since that might be a while off I figured I'd give this a shot.
Thanks!
I think Intruige Rom does a good job of this on its own. I came from a Galaxy Nexus and was able to replicate most of the same look and feel with this rom along with apex launcher.

Thanks for the input. I'll give that ROM a try in the morning.
Does it have the AOSP messaging app and AOSP lockscreen?

It comes with aosp messaging app and I had it with holo locker included but I removed it in R4. You can download holo locker from the play store.

Jellybomb Domination by Josh Beach, puts full JB stuff on touchwiz roms.
Widget Locker is supposed to be one of the best lockscreen replacements. I have never tried it personally.

[APP] Control Center for Android

I just found this on the play store guys and I think it's pretty awesome, this is the only new feature that I loved about iOS7, it's pretty handy IMO. Thought I shared it.
I'm just sharing it, I couldn't find the post where the app was born ( I'm pretty sure was developed here on xda ), but anyways, if you find the maker, thank him, and be sure to leave 5 star to promote development.
Here is what it looks like on my device.

No offence but if I wanted my phone to look like an iPhone then I'd still have my iPhone lol ... I'm sure some people will appreciate this app though, at least if/when they iron out the issues current users seem to experience with it
I actually tried this the other day and I really didn't like it. Its kind of askward since it is right by my app drawer button. So I found myself hitting that instead. Or it would do both.
I much prefer power toggles or something similar in my notification drawer. Not to mention the colors on the center are just plain ugly and don't blend well with anything.
Just my opinion!

I can't get how getting a quick settings alike will make your android look like an android, this is not a theme or whatsoever. Well I just wanted to share it, I'd never use an iPhone that's for sure but control center is way better option than both quick toggles/ quick settings on android IMO.

Curious as I notice you are running a Venom ROM.
If so what benefit does this have over using the Quick Setting in the pulldown, does that not offer even more?
Nevermind, the mod took care of it....
