the new DroidX dialer - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering if anyone has looked into porting the new Droid X dialer off its official rom for evo use yet.
Here's info on it for those interested:
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/10/new-droid-x-dialer-introduced-on-version-2-3-340/
Sorry if it's been discussed, I'm on tapatalk now and miss stuff that way sometimes.
tapatalked from my SUpersonic.

Looks just like the dialer from aosp-cm6 roms.

AOSP yes, but looks to have t9 dialing which could kill the need for dialer one and put cm one step closer to converting sense users

[Q] Sense Apps for vanilla/cyanogen

is there any way to get sense apps like the Music, camera, and phone onto vanlla phones or on cyanogen
I was hoping there was a way to get the dialer from a sense rom onto any stock rom. I actually may try that out later this week and see if it works (doubtful).
It requires sense framework for the Widgets as I've asked this before, as far as camera mods and what not I've seen that on vanilla roms but I'm sure there are geniuses that dwell on XDA that could figure it out.

Eventually, there will be hacked up ROMs with bits and pieces from every corner of the earth - I wanted the same thing on my Nexus (stock with the HTC cam) and there were a few options (though all had bugs here and there). Given the G2 was *just* permrooted, it might be a few weeks/months before you see some really creative ROMs.
Other stuff, like the lockscreen, can be changed with apps like widgetlocker and such.
You should definitely try out the Desire Z rom, though. It's all kinds of awesome, with new features that weren't there in previous versions of Sense. Hell, the camera app alone is worth it - makes the stock Android camera app look like a joke.
Sense apps have never and will never work on a non-sense based rom as it has far too much reliance on lots of frameworks (its a messy area).
The closest you will get is a rom like SuperVillain (out later today) that is a Sense based rom but with Rosie (Launcher) and widgets removed so looks like vanilla but still has all the sense apps working.
Keep an eye on villainrom.co.uk or the dev section here on xda for the rom release of SuperVillainZ

Enomther's TheOfficial has the option of both the HTC Camera and the HTC Music app - plus you can install the HTC IME (onscreen keyboard) easily as an APK (there's even a kitchen that lets you customize the colors and such).
Your sig claims you've owned 4 android phones. So you're obviously not a super noob. So my question to you is -
Did searching just not occur to you, or did you honestly believe you were not the 7,548th person to ask this question?
I am not asking about sense widgets because im aware that i need to have the sense framework running but im just wondering about the 2 apps Camera and Music. i know that enmothers rom gives you the option to install the 2 if you want and am just wondering if its possible to do the same for cyanogen.
also i have used the Sense Roms for the G2 but i was never really a fan of non Vanilla android.

A couple of apps may have been REBUILT to work without sense, but its not an easy job and certainly isn't something a lot of people have done.
the HTC IME keyboard was pretty much an entire rewrite of the code based on what the htc one looked like, its not the apk from sense just moved over.
I can't comment on the camera or music, but I imagine these are the same.

There has been a sense app ported to stock. Enom ported the HTC camera to his stock ROM for the Nexus... I remember running it.. That was a great ROM
Sorry, I see this has already been covered... But I know the app wasn't rewritten, it was a straight port, with the stock framework rewritten, so it was a straight app port

I really like the browser from sense, I use lpp for widgets so I'm good there. I asked about getting some sort of plug in for google translate onto vanilla browser and got nothing but flame. Hopefully gingie brings this to us... I mean is there any other plug ins other then flash? Honest question

[REQ]MIUI Dialer ported to Sense

Hey guys,
So as the title states I'd love to see the MIUI dialer ported over to Sense. I think that's the one thing that I loved most about MIUI. It just looks very sleek and polished and dare I say the Sense dialer looks dated in comparison. If anyone can help me out, that'd be amazing.
Thank you!
BTW, mods: if this is in the wrong section, please move.
It's closed source, it couldn't be ported. However it could be closely replicated...
I think the dialer is replicated in Ultimate Droid 2.x, you should download the ROM and pull the apk for the dialer and try it on your ROM

[Q] Stock Froyo ROM for EVO????

Hey all.
Getting my EVO today and coming over from the Droid 1 community. Looking for a stock 2.2 ROM for the EVO WITHOUT Sense and full functionality.
I'm a fan on plain and simple and don't need all the fluff.
Anyone know where I can find one?
Thanks!

If you want full functionality you will need a sense rom as 4g doesn't work for aosp yet. Plus aosp you can only send text with 30 or less characters, dumb I know. There are sense roms with sense removed so you will still have full functionality with aosp look.
By the way when u ask a question, you ask in q and a not in development lol.

You can disable HTC Sense.
Since you just now got your device, your camera won't work with any AOSP ROM either... has to be a Sense ROM. I suggest NeoEvo... very standard ROM with full functionality.
Frost rom has all sense removed with a aosp look, check that out everything works.
Looks like Frost Rom won't be getting any more support.
Can't find anything on NeoEvo.
Any other suggestions?
I assume WrlsFanatic was referring to this one...

I like NeoEvo. It's my new favorite Sense ROM. Fast and elegant.
Also try Vaelpak. That was my favorite but the latest one has some issues but the dev is very responsive.
Last, try Burnt Droid by Netarchy. Again simple and elegant. He doesn't update often but really there's no need.

[Q] Gingerbread with HTC Sense?

Hello!
I'm currently running Oxygen's excellent Gingerbread 2.0 RC6 on my Desire. It's been fine, although I notice many of the visual enhancements don't currently work - like screen on/off animation etc. I also get the Oxygen loading screen hang frequently.
Now, I can put up with these things IF there is a way to get the Sense UI onto the device while running Gingerbread... I have no idea if this is even possible or not!
Can someone please advise? Is there a launcher ROM that can be flashed over the top of Gingerbread that will give me the Sense UI goodies while giving me the other benefits of GB? Or am I limited to waiting for a modified Sense-based 2.3 ROM rather than an AOSP one such as Oxygen?
Appreciate you advice and input

Thanks for your reply!
Totally agree. I had the updated oxygen ROM and missed some of the sense features. COME ON HTC give us gingerbread with sense 2!!
Get the full version of launcherpro which has sense style Widgets for your homescreens. Then get the sense theme for the launcherbar at the bottom of the screen. Looks exactly the same without having to flash a sense rom.

Yes, probably. There are several threads about that in Desire General section

They said so, but is is reasonable to assume that DesireHD and Desire Z get it first, then we are next.
That however could take a lot of time, I read something about September at the earliest.
Someone correct me please if I'm wrong.
Desire Gingerbread is coming around June time. No specifics as to whether DesireHD and Z get it first but it says they are all on the same schedule as the Incredible S whereas Desire S and Wildfire S will ship with 2.3
source: engadget.com/2011/02/27/htc-incredible-s-desire-hd-desire-z-and-original-desire-will-a/
That could take a while, which is why some of us are installing Gingerbread Roms in the 1st place
Probably will especially if you have to wait for your relevant carrier to tinker with it first. That's why I flashed custom. May go to official HTC rom if/ when this is leaked just depends how slow it is compared to CM 7 unless of course it has sense 2 (crosses fingers)
I'm running CM7 RC1 with Honeycomb Alva v4 theme with ADW EX and I'm loving the look of honeycomb. I hope the brilliant devs that works hard for our free roms can work their magic on the SDK. I wish I could do it, I'm going to start reading up on it nut I never have time so I'd be a cack dev lol. but I must say I'm looking forward to seeing sense on a gingerbread rom!!!

^The same ROM has a Sense port theme using the same method as you installed the Honeycomb theme
It doesn't have the Sense widgets and functionality though, quite obviously.

2.3 Rotating Rosie

Hey does anyone by chance know of a sense 2.3 rotating rosie that has lockscreen editing in the personalize menu. I also have this question in Vision forum but have yet to get an answer. Any input in the right direction is appreciated.
sorry im am unsure of a rom with both the rotating rosie but leedroid is a great rom with a very good mix of personalisation with sens 3 features..
How about downloading a rotating rom then use the sense 3 add on packages
By rotating rosie, I presume you're referring to 3D.
At the moment that is a Sense 3 only feature. RCMix is the one I would go for, but it is still early days as the devs are still ironing out all the bugs. There will never be an official release for the DHD.
As far as I can tell, all the Gingerbread Sense ROMs can accept the Kingdom patch.
It's just a case of finding one you like the most.
