I feel like I should know this but for some reason I don't think I do.
Anyhow, just flashed the latest build of CM and I miss the HTC Dialer, keyboard and Messaging app like crazy. Is it possible to just install them without the world ending? Also, does anyone have the apk's for these?
Thanks for any insight.

I searched for an answer to this (I only want the dialer) and found that no one has been successful at parting sense out. It is an all or none type deal. Sucks for me and sucks for you. If anyone knows a comparable dialer with that smart dial thing, give me a heads up. Thanks

Most of those apps need Sense to run. I tried installing the stock keyboard and just got force closes. I'm a big fan of Sense, but I'll make the sacrifice for CM. Hopefully when the full release comes out the devs will be able to incorporate some of those apps into CM.

Thanks for the info guys!
I think a Sense ROM will come using CMs work. CM just doesn't do it because it belongs to HTC. I think maybe s3vo is using CM stuff if not someone else will. I was trying to do it myself I'm just missing something. I'm fairly confident that I will figure it out eventually. Most likely though someone with more knowledge will output one long before I figure it out.

I have been using OMGBv6 and I like the ROM. I have recently learned how to customize ROMs'by using the guide at The Unlockr. I have a few questions. Do I need permission to use someone else's ROM? Can I just use a stock ROM from any device (i.e. nexus s) and port it to my device. I was not sure if there would be complications going from GSM to CDMA. The video recording is broken in OMGB. I would like to work to fix that. Can someone point me in the direction of how to fix this? I thought this should go in the development section. Sorry if not.
If you are modding things for yourself, you don't need permission. If you are using another ROM to make your "own" to put up, then you def need permission. When in doubt, ask. As far as the fix you are looking for, I have no idea, someone else will have to lend their input.
This will be just for myself. I love Vanilla ROMs and can not seem to find any. Hopefully I can get some help with the other stuff.
Check your inbox i sent you some info

HTC Incredible OMGB 2.3.1
I have been to his site. I am interested in building my own roms. Not from scratch but for personal use. But thanks
Im sure, if its for personal use and your not trying to pass it of as yours and post it, you should be ok to mod others rom for yourself. Just think of it this way. Google made the os htc made sense and everyone is modding there stuff and releasing it. IMO
Sent from my sexy assistant. (HTC Incredible)
I am just going to use his rom and mod to my liking. I do not plan on releasing to anyone else. Does anyone know if I can use the stock rom from a nexus s and use on my incredible.
I'm not a dev, but pretty sure you can't. The rom is hardware specific. Even porting a rom from the evo, which is very similar to the inc, takes a lot of work.

I was just using the nexus as an example, I am trying to learn this stuff and am using the kitchen to mod roms to my liking. Any info on fixing things broken on roms such as the recording in omgb
Just as an example. Ruby 2.0 puts a percentage in the battery icon, if I wanted to change the verizon wireless text to something else. Change a lock screen. Simple mods to a rom.
So I've been running a few roms on the old framework, my favorite being vaelpak 2.3.
I've used the standard froyo arabic libs to get my arabic on. Arabic as u all know is a semitic language like hebrew. It writes from right to left with most of the letters connecting in a script like manner.
However, now that htc has released their 3.70 framework, the arabic libs doesn't work. Vaelpak has gone to the 3.70 framework n I'm stuck in the old version of his rom cuz I likes to reads the arabics.
Well, it works somewhat. It displays the letters from right to left, which I'd assume is the difficult part, however it doesn't connect them. So it looks really ugly.
So, I want to get my semitic on, and I'm sure that my semitic brethren would like to also. Please help a brother out. I got my cousin who quite knowledgeable in the programing stuff to help me but he says that htc hadn't released their source yet.
So... In the words of lebron james:

Hey guys,
I'm wondering if any of you can help me out. I have a HTC Wildfire S but I'm getting quite fed up with always running out space and not being able to move some of the preinstalled things to my SD card. So... I read up a little and believe I need to root it to gain admin so I can start moving things around. To do that I need to turn S-off(?) but the problem i'm having is HTCDev don't seem to be emailing me whatever I'm supposed to get after pasting my identifier code. Is there anyway to get it S-off without the identifier thingy?
Thanks.

If you follow instructions from HTC DEV it will make your phone S-ON...To do S- OFF you need XTC clip...So you can try couple of more times pasting the identifier token or try using xtc clip...If nothing works try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131264

Try Jelly King if you want a taste of jelly bean. If you want ICS, CM9.1 Alpha 9. If you want sense based ROMs, I would recommend wildchild or crossfire 77's modified stock ROMs if you want the default looks.

If im totally honest I have no idea the differences between them, I was told try CM9.1/CM10, I checked out their wiki, seems pretty good but doesnt actually say if it supports Wildfire S or not, then I found out theres like 3 types of wildfire S. Also I read about some bugs in the video/camera for CM, dunno how dated the posts where though or if they are fixed now.
I assume Sense based roms are based on Htc Sense?
Forgive the n00bness but I am but a humble n00b, research, trial and error all the way.

CM9.1 has the infamous camcorder bug. CM10 has working camera, but the video records at a very low frame rate. Yes, sense based ROMs are based on HTC sense. In Wildchild, sense stuff is stripped out, only essential files are kept. It makes the phone faster.
N00bness, well, even I was once that way. But I have to appreciate the fact that you are at least researching. People just blindly come and ask questions to which answers are literally one search away.
If you have any more doubts, feel free to ask again and use my help thread in the Q&A section.

Loss of camcorder... I dunno man, what happens if the Mrs wants to make some *home movies* ahem.
Wildchild sounds good then. Basically my issue was the lack of space, which I fixed last night with the something2sd app (forgot first part of the name), which also sorted out problem of getting rid of rubbish like twatter and friend stream. Right now i'm not really after anything life changing, stripping it down to the bare essentials and being able to put a few apps on would be great, overall speed improvement and battery life would be awesome as im sick of charging it all the time but I dont want it at the cost of other things not working. Oh and being able to do themes would be really nerdy but cool. Any suggestions?
I actually quite enjoy the research side of things, I like understanding things, granted im not the most technically minded but I can figure out the basics... sometimes.

If you want themes on Wildchild, its pretty much DIY. Visit uot kitchen and make it yourself. And if you want the personalize option to work in Settings, you need to flash the stock Rosie. Its in addons section.
Or you could use CM7.2, based on GB, everything works except USB tethering (which I forgot to mention is a known bug on all CM Roms). Themes are widely spread on play store, xda, and a bunch of other sites. If tethering isn't of concern, you can go for CM7.

After a quick googling I found out usb tethering is using your phone as a modem, not something Ive ever used or ever plan to use, so that puts me smack bang in the middle of wildchild and cm7.2. Any other pros and cons?

That's pretty much it.
Cm7 looks kinda bad, so I would recommend either LunarUI or MattedBlues. Top themes and I've tried out both.
If you like blue, you're gonna like Wildchild. But if you can't handle everything blue, cm7 is for you.
Good luck, and ask away if you still have doubts.

Crunch time, so much pressure. So it's safe to assume both are pretty similar and do the same things, both are better than what I have now and both are simple to customize?

Okay, so I've had i317 for about 4 months now, its a great phone. I would just love to see an ics 4.0.4 rom, be it stock or aosp,, aokp, etc for this device. The reason being is that there are alot of apps I used to use, such as UMA and a few others I cannot remember as of right now. Forgive me if this isn't the correct area to post the question lol. But can anyone possibly help me with my issue I'm having? A. ort or something would be ideal if possible.
On a side note: I have some prior knowledge with developing roms and getting them to work fully and such, like betas alphas and what not. just haven't gave much thought as to post on the forum untill now. So I'm not completely of the noob calibur so to speak.
Lastly, my final question, would anyone be interested in deving up a 100% pure custom 4.3 rom that is completely Pokemon themed right down to the contacts and dialer. I will include more detail upon request, also one that isn't 10.1 based or cm in general. The reason I say non cm based is because volume+ sound boost breaks the speaker and crackles pretty badly, and i am partialy deaf so the apk is much needed. Any help would be be very appreciated and id be eternally greatful.

It's not going to happen. The note 2 was shipped with 4.1.1 (or higher) so there is no 4.0 source for devs to work with.
Also, since pretty much every AOSP rom uses the CM Theme Manager, it's not that common to see themed roms (there are exceptions, but they tend to be lightly themed). Either find a CM theme to your liking or learn to theme your rom.
Sorry my friend...
You aren't the only one wanting it...
I'd even take a nice CM6 ROM for this device...
But as mentioned... It's just a dream... g

Okay, well shoot. Could you at least tell me that the possibility to get an apk to adapt and work on a newer rom is possible? I ask this because the main reason for me asking a dream question is simply that I love the ultimate mobile armor apk. it is the best privacy apk ever thought of. It was removed for reasons unknown. Back when I had my S3 and I717, it worked on both. Sadly it will not stick on the rooms I run currently. (Cleanrom 5.0, lionrom 2.1, etc.) Could the scripts and such be altered somehow for it to be compatible? On the S3 I always ran cm10 and its stick. Any thoughts, ideas and suggestions that are helpful and or leading to an apk exactly similar to ultimate mobile armour would be greatly appreciated.

Apk alteration is very possible ...
The trick is finding a dev to work it out ...and since apps are owned by their respective creators ...you would need permission from him/her to use or modify the code...
And I've always said it ...
A few emails and pm's go a long way..
Hit up the dev and see what you can learn ...g

Ive looked and searched and I've found nothing from the devs of this apk. Its been completely stricken from the web. What are my other options here as far as these apk Modding concerns go? I've found nothing for secure mobile sadly.
I see...
That being said ...it appears the app has been killed off for legal reasons ??
And lookout mobile is inferior how ??
Most of these security apps are monitored via 3rd party in addition to device activity ...
So it stands to reason that if your service for the apk is dead....it won't work anyway..
Best advice...pick an alternate and move forward....
Lookout and AVG are both exceptional ...and many others are available ..
Norton or Mccaffe possibly too...
Happy hunting ...and sorry I couldn't be of more help...g
