Agreed, except for the lack of receiving MMS. This was the whole reason I traded back to sense from MIUI, people kept sending me pictures and I had to go through sprints crap site to find them. (It's not easy to find your received MMS online, but it's there.)
yea hopefully they can fix the mms issue so we can have some talented person port it ova
Are there any call screen (dialer and incoming call) replacements for Sense roms? I really hate the call screens in Sense...one of my peeves I guess. I've seen ones that I love and that look real nice in other roms (like MIUI) but I would love a customized, flashable replacement for a Sense rom that fixes the issue with the contact pic or looks identical to the one in MIUI (currently running Myn's Warm 2.2).
You can swap the files between roms, but I forget what files your supposed to swap.....hopefully someone else can help you with that

Agreed! I dislike all the white in the Sense Phone app, its very hard on the eyes during night hours...
EDIT: Spare 5min at work, I pulled the Phone.apk out of 'Nils' Business Sense' ROM and copied it over to my DInc....FAIL! Rebooted and Dialer Storage keeps FC'ing. Looks like it will take a little more thought and an actual dev's attention perhaps. Takers?

As far as dialer goes, aContact is nice(Free)

As far as call screen goes, Full Screen Caller ID is nice(about $5), but they have a add supported free version as well

The SkyRaider link is broken
Okay so just the OP link is broke, got it from Post #7
any chance of getting it ported to the Inc? my friend got the phone, I dont like it, but the music player was sweet. Is it even possible? Would love it on SR4
find the .apk and try it out man. won't hurt anything...
yeah thats what I figured I'd try. I found one APK but it was a no go on my phone. I'll keep trying. How would I go about taking the apk from my friends tbolt?

well if you don't mind changing roms then warm z has the new htc music player.
Yeah thats what I heard but i'm a die hard SR guy. Theres got to be a port from some phone with the new player that would be compatible. They port and mod everything else why not this.

no port the only reason i think they wouldn't port it is because well no one besides ihtfp69 has ported any features from sense 2.0 to sense 1.0 and also because the new Z roms are stable and only have one bug which is phantom calls the closest thing to skyraider i have seen in a z rom is uber z but it hasn't been updated for a while.
Update 7-19 Working Lock Screen: jrizk07 has put together a single zip update for a stable lock screen. Big thanks to jrizk07!
In the zip, the Sense 3.0 Weather is included along with the updated 3.0 lock screen. All are working.
Limitations/Bug:
The lock screen will not show missed calls. This is due to the use of the 2.1 phone.apk. The 3.0 phone force closes too much, presumably due to a conflict with our radio.
Some are seeing the VVM app displayed twice in the app drawer. This is not consistently reproduced.
Zip can be found below. It is best flashed on a clean version of the RMK OTA. Flash on top of the ROM with no wipe. Link below:
http://www.multiupload.com/ZXQ2B2L7HE
Update: I have managed to get the lock screen working on the OTA build by RMK. I did no dev work on this, but rather was able to find different combinations of files that mostly worked. I am no Dev and cannot really support this, but wanted to post my findings. Flash at your own risk.
Here is what I did:
Taking the great work by Seo on the Desire HD (Thanks Seo!) in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062962, these are the steps I took:
1. Flash Sense3_WeatherPack-0.13.zip and reboot to set up. Do not wipe.
2. Flash Stock_Weather_KingdomLock-0.3.zip and reboot. Do not wipe.
3. Flash Kingdom_Lockscreen-0.17.zip. Do not wipe
After this, you should have a working lock screen and the new Messaging app. The new Messaging app cannot send MMS, so I pulled the MMS.apk out of the RMK ROM and pushed it back into System/App using Root Explorer (remember to change permissions), and reboot. If MMS is not important to you, you should be able to keep the app.
Bug:
com.android.phone will force close on occasion. I am not sure what is causing this, but it seems to happen mostly at start up. You will lose network connectivity momentarily and it will come back. I am not sure if it is a conflict with my SwitchPro widget for toggling vibrate or not, but seems related. This will also happen when toggling 3G Hotspot, but after the FC, everything works fine.
Work Around:
If the Phone FC'ing is an issue for you, you can push the phone.apk from the RMK ROM similar to the MMS method above. Doing this will not show missed calls on the lock screen and it will not show the count of calls on the phone icon for the lock screen.
I know the Kingdom ROM folks are having the same FC issue with the phone, so we should monitor Joel's progress to see if the issues they are having are related to this.
Now, on to the Quick Settings.
Old Req...
I know we are all waiting for Kingdom and Virtuosity, but I would love to just add these two features to the OTA. I suspect it will yield a very stable ROM.
That said, can anyone point me to a tutorial for porting features? I am sure it will require some framework tweaks and new APKs, but I would like to at least start poking around since we have a stable ROM with all working features.
google "android kitchen"
in the mean time. I use this, VERY STABLE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151053

Thanks. I tried that ROM and liked it, but it is missing several HTC widgets and the voice search does not work. I really love that lock screen though.

Don't forget MMS doesn't work.
A good place to start is looking at the sense 3.0 update in that thread.
It replaces various frameworks, permissions, and apk's among other things. The only problem is that it's based on the Incredible S otherwise we'd be able to just flash it normally.
I flashed it just to test and I got the lock screen to work however the com.android.phone will continuously crash along with the status bar. I don't have enough time in the day to look at it piece by piece for a port.

GPS works fine for me but what did you do differently for mms?
It always fails after a number of retries and looking into it the settings are all blank. That's coming from a clean wipe of everything to beta2.
I'm still unable to send/receive picture messages

Yea, I was bummed too after they said it was fixed.
I'd really love to use that ROM, loving the sense 3.0 features, but can't live without mms
I'm working on porting the 3.0 lockscreen and a few other applications to the OTA update that rmk released. This is the first time I've done something like this, though, so somebody might beat me to the punch as I'm taking my time to make sure everything is gravy.

Same here, i'm interested in being a guinea pig
I'm going to try to get my hands on an inc2 of my own so I can get some work done. Team BAMF has given me permission on the port and I got boot, haven't tested beyond that.

I just successfully ported sense 3.0 . No service yet though. I used a MT4G rom.
for those who want rmks rom with sense 3.0 lockscreen pull all the idlescreen.apks and fusion.apk from a sense 3.0 rom and htclockscreen.apk and put them into the rom before you boot
thats all it takes for 3.0 lockscreen? easy enough. thanks a lot
What ROM would you recommend grabbing these APKs from?
Im having trouble installing the themes from the DHD sense 2.1 skin thread. They install fine, but cant seem to get them to show in the skins picker. Anybody got a fix, or perhaps a set of skins that works?

thanks, but had already found the answer to the question id asked before anyone paid it any attention :/ thanks anyway, though. And its not just those tbolt skins that seem to work, as ive tried others from the tbolt theme thread, and they worked as well. Thise do seem to be the best looking, IMHO (Rogue Sense being my personal fave).
