Could someone extract htcsense.com apk from their phone, and post it somewhere?
Thanks
I dont think thats going to be possibly as the whole interface is embedded deep in the OS. I'm not sure about individual apps though.
My question was is it possible to RIP the news app ?
Sense can't be ripped and mixed with vanilla or any other Custom UI(Samsung,moto,etc) it's completely dependent on htc's framework. The main app would be Rosie.apk, which you can rip from any sense/mysense rom, it would only be good for ripping the images or wallpapers.
but it is useful to ppl that have sense
I was pretty sure that was the answer, but if you dont ask you dont get !

it makes "sense"
anyway, and beyond a sigle-app transplant between Vision variants (Euro, Bell, Tmo), the main target is full firmware swapping in a -probable- near future
Hey everyone! I wanted to introduce a new project with a very simple but ambitious goal: create a place where all kernel developers can submit kernels easily and reach a much wider audience with ease.
Using Kernel Manager to flash kernels takes less than 30 seconds, generally, and it is extremely simple for end-users to find a kernel, filter by kernel features (BFS, CFS, HAVS, SBC, etc) download/install kernels, and submit ratings for their favorites.
We need from kernel developers like YOU! Submitting a kernel to Kernel Manager is totally free and we even provide hosting for you! Submitting kernels is easy, and kernel developers receive a FREE copy of Kernel Manager Pro when they submit a kernel to Kernel Manager!
If you use IRC, join us in freenode in #kernel-manager!
THIS LINK IS FOR KERNEL DEVELOPERS SPECIFICALLY! Go to http://kernels.teamw.in and register for an account! Once it's approved, you can easily enter new kernels, which immediately show up in the app. The app is currently available in the market.
Please feel free to provide me with any feedback you have, or feature requests in order to make this a great tool for all of android to utilize!
Should I submit my kernels to this? This guy is making dough off this which I have no issues with at all...
Just wanted some opinions from you guys...
If it makes easier for us to keep up with your work, then whynot?
How many other Dev's have starrted using?
It's like Rom Manager for kernels, no?
If this had other features developed into the app and happened to support kernel downloads it'd be one thing, but I will not be paying someone else so that I can have access to the kernels that originate here. I'll save my money for the kernel devs. That being said if others find value in this, or if the dev community thinks it will do some good I'm all for it.
I see a **** ton of people having problems and coming straight to you faux.
I say make em flash the old fashion way... it at least deters some of the noobs. Making it something where anyone can one click change kernels.... sounds like opening a big can of worms.
Just my 2¢.

+1 I would like to see less repitition in the forums of "help I'm bricked!" Then 3 posts from a senior member with some knowledge "oh I just had 2.5.1.2 installed or 3.0.0.5" then there's the others like (this still makes me laugh) my internets slow, must be the sim card! Lol. Sorry rant I think it'd be a good app if only available to more seasoned users to inhibit the amount of screw ups..

Faux you are the kernal king !!! thanks alot for all your cool kernals dude. but i would just submit one and see what happeneds !!!
Good idea, but I agree with the others posts. It would be helpful to have everything in one spot, even with older versions, but him making scratch on you, with you as basically free support?
Unless you want to get your name out there to more people, then go for it.
Thank you for everything so far and in the future.
The problem is, we have so many different roms, and some of them require different kernels.
At least in the kernel threads they can see what works with what. An app like this will see ro.product.device=glacier and pull all the kernels. making it easy for someone to screw up and flash the wrong kernel.

Just to clarify something - it costs nothing for a dev to host a kernel, and it costs nothing for someone to download that kernel through the app.
Kernel Manager provides kernel devs a super easy way to distribute their work for free. Kernel Manager Lite can download and flash kernels for free, so I'm not sure why you feel like you need to pay for anything?

Currently we have 37 developers signed up and submitting kernels.
I make my kernels for ME but share them because it is the proper thing to do. Feel free to use them, host them whatever. I do not want to make any money off of them because I did NOTHING. If you want to make money off of them, or share them feel free. Depending on what you do, I will have more (or less) respect for you. But really, who cares. I respect shiznzul (so far), so have fun and good luck.

The app only displays kernels that are your for your particular device so there's no chance of flashing a kernel that's for the wrong phone.
If there's any question about what type of phone you have (see: samsung phones...), it pops up a message asking you to confirm which of the options your phone is.

What about seperating for different versions. We have two different Aosp formats... and two or three sense formats that we use on the 4g.
How does your app keep other kernels seperate so it doesn't screw up peoples phones?
That is the biggest issue I think most of us on the 4g see.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
being that it's in the market there is always a chance it will become a paid app. I just don't want devs to become dependent on it, that's all. I like reading into what I'm doing, so I guess I should ask, is there a section for a changelog, install notes, etc?

There will always be a free version that provides access to the kernels. There is a free version (Lite) and a cost version (Pro) right now.
Pro will just have more features, but everyone will still be able to download+flash kernels for free if they like.

I am going to add a confirmation on the android flavor (AOSP vs Sense). I might add a filter option for it, but it's difficult because that field is developer-input. There isn't a standard list.
Hello everyone,
I've been on these forums for some time already, and have avidly watched the development of new ROMs and apps. But always only as a user.
I have now become interested in developing my own ROMs for the Xperia Play, and I would like to ask you some questions:
1) What programs and utilities exist for developing custom ROMs, and which one would you suggest for a beginner?
2) I myself have an r800i, but I would like my ROMs to work on the other models too, how difficult is that to do?
Thanks in advance,
Si1ver Shad0w
No idea how to do it myself but look here:

Its not that easy as creating your own bootlogo.
1. Make the name
2. The features mustnt be same, implent something different, something cool and useful, because if you make something that was already released like 2times, people doesnt care..
3. Use Android SDK
However you will need Ubuntu, but you need a knowledge how to do it. You cant just say from day one to day two "Hey i want to be famous! I make the best ROM!".. If you are stuck at this point and you arent modder or hacker, i woudnt recommend it doing.
Click "Thanks" if useful.

For the moment I won't be releasing anything, just want to tinker by myself and if it works out then maybe share it with the community.
I'm currently wanting to just modify the stock 2.3.4 ROM, so I don't think I will be needing the Android SDK. But apparently Android Kitchen needs a Unix environment to work, so I'm now downloading the latest Ubuntu and gonna put that on a virtual machine. =)
Also, I was wondering, I have seen some custom ROMs that can be installed even with a locked bootloader, how exactly is that done?
I want that bad on-screen lock mod for circles not included in lock screen someone explain where our how to get if. Also it's possible add color dpi switcher from paranoid to my Rom by hand? Someone explain how to do it to me I'm on root box I don't mind doing it my self just need help

How to extract settings from other roms
Im just wondering is this possible. I run a custom rootbox rom. I just want to know can you "if you could"
Take Paranoid Android, or Pacmon or Paranoidkong or something pull out the settings for DPI and Color changing and add it to rootbox. Not for anyone else just for me. I don't want to run there rom I like rootbox..
What im really getting at is I want a custom rom for just my self and I want all the best stuff from everyones roms I won't give it away or sell it or trade it or start fires... not again... but I do really want the color and dpi settings from Paranoid android and thats all.. can anyone send me a link or explain to me simply how to start doing this or how to teach my self to do it. No smart ass remarks please I know its making my own rom but I dunno where to start searching brings up 100's of posts about roms I dunno man so if u know easy way to start doing this let me know please if don't mind helping me PM me please. I had long day work I could use something to get my mind off real life
Chef central might be a good place to start. It's a forum here on xda.
However, a lot of what you're asking for requires frameworks specific to certain ROMs. If you can figure out what you need to run the features you're looking for, then you should theoretically be able to cook them into a ROM. Most features of android may as well be an apk that can be run anywhere, but many things require resources to function.

I can look at PA sorce I mean its open its on ghub or whatever but I dunno how figure out what libs and stuff go with what app is there a file in there rom that explain it if I upzip it?
Ive had many sprint phone's however I've had 2 cell phone models that I've rooted ever since i found it about it. An lg g3
And the one I'm posting with right now: s6
Ive noticed that for both (moreso with samsung) there is never really interesting mods or any real rom selection etc . How come this is? What's up with sprint specifically that makes it so difficult to customize/modify their devices? Im not *****ing or anything is just an observation . For instance there are tons of roms that include a lot of things I'd like on my phone but they are all compatible with every carrier other than sprint. Anyway of anyone had an answer or a path to lead me to ... that'd be cool. Hell, you can call me a dickhead and ill be happy

For starters there isn't as many devs for Sprint phones as there is for other carriers. Further more, Sprint is CDMA so making unlock mods like we did for the G3 is far harder. Not to mention just developing for Samsung in General is harder as they have more Anti-Root protection then say LG or HTC. We are currently working as hard as possible to bring cool mods and tweaks to this device... Sorry for the wait though

Also, don't forget there are oodles of Xposed modules you can use. I personally believe that is the main reason there aren't many mods/ROMs. I personally stopped developing ROMs because of this. Instead, I debloat and smali edit my own device to my liking, then write my own module to add the features I like. Before, I used to do smali edits, and make everything relate to one another. So users could add their own features, or choose the ones I built in. Nowadays, you can just install and uninstall the xposed modules you want. A lot easier for us developers. I also think android in general is getting more user friendly. They now have "theme stores" for users to apply a theme without root. I'm not sure what kind of "mods" you would be looking for that isn't already done via xposed or something else, but theming always seemed to be the biggest hit. I personally just theme my launcher.
However, there are some features from the S6 Edge I would like to have, so I downloaded the S6 edge ROM and may port it to our device.
TLDR: To simply answer your concern, I don't think development isn't there. I think its just easier for people to use xposed then fully mod an entire ROM and make the installer zip and everything like that for it.

Ahh that makes sense I need to go back thru xposed more thoroughly and how would i go about creating a module? That seems like something i would be interested in. And as far as mods go , im the type that ,even though I'm impressed with what i have i haveban insatiable need to make it one click better ( similar to the custom marshall stacks in the movie spinal tap that the volume dial went up to 11 instead of the standard 10, lol idk if you seen the movie or not) but mainly id like to modify the camera to a higher resolution and possibly include the ability to leave the shutter open as long as i want , those are just a couple of mods i would love to have haha i know I'm asking for an impossibility but those are the kind of ideas i come up with i just have no clue how to create such madness haha

I too want better quality from the camera. I believe that is needed by a kernel mod, or a .SO mod. The latter of the two is harder. But I want better slow mo quality, should be able to adjust bitrate, and maybe hopefully fps. But having the shutter open as long as you want, I like that idea! I may see what I can do. You can easily make the volume go to 11 instead of 10, but you won't get a volume boost. What I personally do, is use the mixer_paths.xml to boost the volume, then add more volume steps. On my S5 I had 20 volume steps for everything, and it worked great. Allowed for more minute adjustments, but still get the volume boost from the mixer_paths.xml.
About creating an xposed module, just look it up on the forums. Plus there are YouTube guides which tell you step by step how to do it. You do need to know Java coding though. Its extremely easy to learn though.

And I personally think I am very good with xposed and smali reading. I used to make ALL my mods through smali alone. I even wrote a "smali coder" that would translate java into smali without compiling anything. That tool though has long since been lost as well as its source code since I don't use it anymore. I now use Virtous Ten Studio for smali work cause of being able to link condition statements and stuff. Its got flaws, but it works. I will probably end up writing my own that way it does everything I would like it too.

We do, it's a CSC tweak, but you can only add tweaks like that if you freshly flash a ROM. If we have xposed, you can add it anytime without having to reinstall.
Come to think of it, could you do something like XTouchWiz?
