[Q] Lcd destiny changer on sense rom - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

Hi everyone,
I'm using lcd destiny changer on Cyanogen 6.1.1. I like it to be set on 200.
Now i was using a sense rom this day and when i set lcd destiny changer on 200 sense is not really handle that very well.
Is there something i can do about it or is it just not working well with a sense rom??

There's nothing that can be done. That's the main reason why I didn't use sense anymore, I love my 190 density too much.

I don't know man, the screen destiny is set to be a phone screen forever....

Been there, faced that! Never tried a Sense based ROM again because of this since I am way too much habituated with a LCD Density of 180/190!
You could try a different launcher on your Sense ROM but then that would defeat the whole purpose of using Sense right ?

Yeah, so i'm back on CM6.1.1
Hope CM 7 will work for me soon...

There is an option somewhere about application compatibility mode. Make sure it is unchecked. I don't recall where the option is though.

^^Spare Parts!
Compatibility Mode needs to be off in Spare Parts!

People sense is diffrent. Even if you change the density the rosie.apk will not look good. It will look good with other launchers on the market.

great job, hope this can release ASAP.
This looks interesting, though what exactly is different between this future ROM, and the rom for the Desire Z? It just seems like another Sense ROM to me.
Please don't take that the wrong way. It's great that you're porting different ROMs over to the G2! I'm just curious since I don't understand what sets it apart from a regular Sense ROM like Virtuous.

Acutally the port is 2.2 froyo and 2.0 sense.
The Gingerbread sense port is located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11379272#post11379272
No developer as I know,is working on porting it to the G2 inwhich I'm also hoping for.

well so far the diferences are:
new widgets like a power control widget
email widget has been revamped
also there is a exchange widget? dunno how it differs from email
the new app drawer icon
um settings is a bit different
agenda widget
htc likes widget
there like 2 new people widgets
and twitter widget looks kind off dirent i guess.
edit: iv been told most of this is not new, bunch of this widgets are alredy in desire z builds, im guessing rmk40 ripps them out, or i never looked for them.
i will post more screen shots if i can.
btw wifi and bluetooth are fixed now.

camcoreder works but 720p recording crashes when you start recording after a few seconds.
Data should work? again i have no data plan to test this.
and probably something else i forgot.
expect a release tonight, iv been warned that comming soon threads are not allowed so, i will release a beta build, so you guys can test it out.
Regardless if we already have Desire Z Sense, I don't like the way Virtuous is going. Thank you for this Port!

Really? Curious as to why you're making that statement.
I'm running it right now, seems to be pretty smooth with decent battery life but issues with mms, screen randomly flashing and a couple other things are annoying.
REMOVED in request of the Thread Owner
GOOD JOB ON THE PORTS!
Cimer said:
Well I don't like the UI changes that are going on, and I do not see some of my wish list features that kind of make sense.
Some UI changes that I do not like is the "3G+" Even though that used to be accurate I like my H and if Virtuous was going to decide to change the H icon the only icon I would not mind is a "4G" icon because that term is accurate now.
I don't like what they did with the personalized button, I liked the old way better it looked nicer and I find it to be useful because I like changing certain UI things up which Sense allows me to do.
Also Virtuous buddy does not seem to work as well as I would hope and I can not access the main settings part, which leaves me kind of frustrated because I would like to know if I could change what I did not like above.
What I would like to be changed is when you slide down the notifications bar I would like a power control rather than recent apps, I have a home screen for that and the app drawer can be just as quick.
I don't know if this last part is possible or not, but I would like more themes, or just a flat bar like slate with the HTC skin to it.

There is a mod to make it a power contol, in the thread.
He said virtuous buddy is still beta.
If you don't like the personalize button.. flash the stock launcher.. yet again there is a mod for that in the thread.
The 3g+ icon is stock with the ROM. That's how HTC put it.
Make more themes since your so needy.
Conclusion: Read in the thread. Almost ALL that stuff you was complaining about besides the 3g+ icon is fixable, if you Read and stop complaining. Better yet don't flash the ROM. And I highly doubt RMK or HTC care about your wish list.

In order to start a wifi call make sure you are close to your router, then you can walk away.
(If you go into WiFi settings, advanced settings, and check Best WiFi Performance, WiFi calling connects easier.)

PERFECT!
The best rom i tried.
Either this Rom has exceptional battery life or the graphic in the status bar isn't showing the proper battery percent. It was at 78% when I took it off the charger 15 min ago and have been using it non stop for that 15 min and it still says 78%. Will continue using and see what happens. Anyone else notice? Other than that, this Rom is superb.

Been trying it for a couple of hours and liking it! Have been switching roms quite often but this is the best 'Sense'-rom for me so far.
Only 2 questions:
1. have setup my exchange-account and it shows my mail and contacts fine. However, it does not show the appointments of my Exchange-calendar, although I have been able to select the Exchange-calendar.
2. I am using the Mail-app and made a shortcut in the Launcher-Pro dock. In LP it's possible to show the dock-notifications for the number of mail only for Gmail. Is it possible to show the original Sense notification for missed/unread mails for the Mail-app. Don't know if it is described properly but in a Sense-rom it's the green circle with number of missed-mail
woah ive been liking your senseless sense ROMS! this one is themed really nice and it has the sense 3.0 lockscreen/incoming call screen.
it is possible to get the sense 3.0 lockscreen with shortcuts ?

Go ROM

I think it'd be interesting for someone to come up with a ROM possibly cyanogen or liquid based, and replace everything possible with go apps. ie: go launcher, go locker, go weather, go sms, etc.. it would add an interesting theming aspect that I think many would enjoy. Would this be possible??

and used many go apps cuz they were miui-y (if that makes sense)
had some issues needing to keep stock contacts.apk in the rom, otherwise you couldnt sync google contacts
on aosp i dont *think* it would be an issue, but on sense i think it would

andmer was the brains behind the rom really...he had to HEAVILY modify the touchwiz framework to accept miui launcher and miui preferences
hes crazy smart and at the time it looked like no aosp miui would really be functional on the fascinate...eventually once jt1134 got cm7 going, andmer took on porting aosp miui to the fasc and up until recently maintained it
even seeing exactly what he was doing at the time made my head spin, lol...i doubt i could replicate it on my own

That makes me think, I wonder if (since I've heard TW is a pita) you could do the same thing with MIUI and sense. So you could still have a lot of the sense aspects but also have the functionality of MIUI similar to your senseless ROM.

This seems like it would be too much of a hassle when you could just as easily install all of the apps the GO Team has to offer and make it look like you have a full GO ROM.
You could always flash MIUI. IMO it's pretty close to the GO with the right theme settings.

It still wouldn't be the same. I'm talking have something fully themeable like MIUI or cyanogenmod but everything is go instead of whatever is stock in the ROM. I guess, yeah you could do it by downloading it all, but it'd be kooler to see more integration.
Oh, btw nitsuj, I messaged andmer about the MIUI/Sense hybrid. I told him I'd be willing to test if he felt like even fooling with it.

This is interesting. I am still stock but this is the smoothest Sense out of the box for me.
Are you rooted? If yes, did you port stuff from your phone? This would create problems especially switching from another version of Android.
If you aren't, it could be stuff that you have installed also.
Just a guess.
Could you specify where you get lags? I didn't really notice any lags. There are slight delays sometime (for example when you open the clock (defaults to world time, which sucks)) but that's to be expected. Other than that it seems very smooth to me.
You can download Apex or Nova Launcher from Play store and you don't have to have root. I prefer Apex because it just fels more smooth and has more options. And who thinks that Sense is not lagging should give Apex a try and than compare yourself
By the way Sense gets disabled by itself if you set Apex as default launcher. That's a 100 MB pure win on RAM.
Just by scrolling between homescreens, i only have clock/weather widget and contacts widget and calendar widget + some icons on my homescreens. Sometimes it runs totally smooth, and sometimes it lags when scrolling to the next screen.

I have gone from 2.1 to 4.0, in between using all kinds of launcher.
It's true in the earlier version the difference can be quite obvious. But I don't think so for 4.0. Sense may be slower, may be not. It is no longer obvious.
But I don't use fancy background, just a static picture. And I always turn off animation.
The OP is talking about smoothness and not response which I agree that sometimes sense causes some delay. But that split ms is harmless to me. I am not going anywhere in that time span anyway. But for the OP to notice such a difference is abnormal.
Apex launcher made me love and buy the device again lol
Sense fan since the early days, but not 4.0 i don't like the taste or will tolerate the lagginess on a quad core hot chip

With all due respect how can you honestly be okay with a half-baked phone? I am a galaxy SII owner and I've had my HTC one X for one day. I love the phone but sense still appears to be more of a memory hog and hindrance than anything else.
I know lots of people who are happy with SGSII's because the software largely functions as its supposed too (I still put vanilla ROM on it because touchwhizz is ugly) but I am already experiencing my htc rebooting the launcher everytime I press home after opening a few apps.. I also noticed that something like 650mb of the 1gb ram is being used when I turn the phone on... Sense is seriously a memory hog. Multitasking doesn't appear to be functioning how I'm used to on the S2. HTC should make sure they iron out kinks like this before they rush to market, after-all their USP is the software...
Even before I received my HTC one X i was reading weekly about bugs and problems people were having with it, which unnerved me a bit.
Thing is, I actually like some elements of sense and it's a vast improvement from my desire but the fact is I can see sense really dragging the performance down over the life of the handset. Even if I use Apex launcher, sense's launcher still drains memory.. I'm removing sense asap

Multitasking doesn't appear to be functioning how I'm used to on the S2. HTC should make sure they iron out kinks like this before they rush to market, after-all their USP is the software...
Even before I received my HTC one X i was reading weekly about bugs and problems people were having with it, which unnerved me a bit.
Thing is, I actually like some elements of sense and it's a vast improvement from my desire but the fact is I can see sense really dragging the performance down over the life of the handset. Even if I use Apex launcher, sense's launcher still drains memory.. I'm removing sense asap

make sure you tick the correct settings. there is no lag with the H1X. Believe me, see my other posts if you need further instructions
Cheers
What do i have to do to make it not lag without rooting ?

I haven't because I don't like its iPhone style. I prefer my screen panels clean and minimalistic, with only a few widgets.
That's why I want a rom with most used apps shortcuts on lockscreen. I actually like sense 3.0 but I find it unstable on my device, using Runnymede AIO at the moment..
thanks anyway
With MildWild CM (maybe all CM based ROMs?) it's possible to change the appearence of your lockscreen in different styles. There's also a "Ring" style. It doesn't look the same, but it works the same i.e. a ring to draw to one of the four random shortcuts.

I'm on stock Hboot and I'd like to keep it that way (don't want to mess up with the phone too much)..
This "ring" style looks interesting, although I prefer Sense's solution, you can see the number of received/unread messages/emails on its respective icons.
thanks for recommendation in any case

It's so easy and safe to change hboot. You have nothing to worry about.
Cant you just use one of those locker app found on google play for this?

I suppose so, it's just that I'm not into tweaking and fiddling it too much, I'm just an user, just want the damn thing to work

I haven't thought about that, thanks...
the thing is that I'm into changing the rom right now, from Runnymede AIO as my phone keeps freezing on it so I'm looking for "lighter" rom with this specific feature

Cyanogenmod would be your nearest choice. Lightweight and has the function you are looking for. Although the lockscreen aint gonna be looking like Sense as a downside.
If your phone freezes check your SD it might be slow..

I tried Cyanogenmod, but I didn't liked it for some reason.. I guess I've been on Sense too long
I don't think that it's SD issue, it's brand new Sandisk, 8GB, class 6

Why don't you try a hybrid? It's light then sense3+ roms.

hmm.. any rom recommendations?
I need one that has data roaming and tethering properly working, that's a must plus all standard features..
thanks
Basically your looking for a lightweight sense ROM which is very unlikely... Since sense 3.0 ROMs are inherently heavy.

I think either LeeDroid or InsertCoin is a hybrid and has flashable 3.0 lockscreens with icons, weather, etc... I think.
Look for them on Development.
Have a look at alexv as well. But don't use the init2sd version.
