Make no sense Rom like sense Rom

Hello to all,
I have tried the opendesire Rom and it's really really fast and is the best I think for gaming but I love sense, his widget, and better application such as calendar,
Music player, camera app dialer and Facebook integration with contact!
So my question is if is possible and how make a non sense Rom like sense with almost or all features of sense.theme style included of course.
Thanks to all

Launcher pro + has some identical widgets, you can try n use it instead...
How about a sense ROm without the keyboard, txt, contact and phone app. Leave those stock Android and hopefully have the Sense widgets.
So you want a very fast stable rom but has sense?
OD with launcherpro is proberly nearest. HTC havent released alot of the froyo source codes (for Desire) so most of the optimisations are just from a base Sense rom.
This means, there isn't alot of tuning ie. UVOC.
Can result in alot of bugs. Like removing the filling from a cake. Gonna get a bit messy.
Pinky's rom is the one i'm using atm, based on MCR if i remember....
Very stable, fast. Some issues with battery, but a bit of tuning to setCPU and your fine.
Apart from that, it does the job nicely.
I've been switching between Pinkys and OD lately. Just cant live without the sense camera, the dialer, and the incoming call screen. But OD does have the speed, battery life, stability and is a bit more "open" thanks to google passing out source codes with every happymeal.
Also, both OD and Pinky have updates available through RomManager, so you can always stay up to date
Now I have nextsense Rom and is very fast but is impossible to oc and don't have the gpu drivers that in most case can make the difference when playing heavy and not optimized games.
But I really don't like vanilla theme of od!!!and HTC has made a wonderful job with their app such as camera contacts calendar etc etc....
So it's a very big hard choice!
Whit launcherpro what can I do?

[Q] Q about rom with best battery life

Which rom provides the best and longest battery life?
Now that all depends on what you want the rom for.
Do you want HTC Sense? Android Stock? AOSP?
Then the kernels you use have a dramatic difference, and the Radio which can be used.
Personally I'm on:
Rom - Oxygen 1.0.4 (AOSP)
Radio - 32.48.00.32U_5.10.05.30
Kernel - 2.6.35.9-vorkKernel [email protected] #1
And from all this, depending on how I use the rom.. On a busy day I'll get near 15 hours battery life, and on a quiet time, I can get around 30-40 hours, and all that,without using SetCpu.
So you've got to look at quite a lot of options. Also depends on what apps you use, and widgets, brightness etc.
Not much help but that's my setup and how it works personally for me.

I have tried Miui and also defrost but i didn't know that the kernel was that important.
Could you sugest other rom's? It doesnt matter AOSP or any other
If you keep to the radio which I mentioned in the earlier post.. I do suggest that you try sense roms: LeeDroid's rom, stable and fantastic, as is AuraxTSense tbh, though I'm not keen on the way that rom looks and can drain the battery quite a bit. Oxygen is also a fantastic AOSP rom, as is Cyanogen. DeFrost is good also, similar to Cyanogen mind.
I have never tried any MIUI roms so I can't suggest.
If you're willing to look on other forums, I suggest looking at http://android.modaco.com/ and go to the Desire section and have a look at some of the Sense and NO-Sense roms on there, they are also good for lack of drain.
Stick to the radio I mentioned and you won't go wrong mate . Most kernels released with the roms have been made specifically for that rom and usually will be the best that there is already, so don't worry yourself about that too much.

Another "which rom to try" thread

Hi guys I need a new stable rom...currently on oxygen 2.1.6 and just not enjoying the low battery life and a few other bugs...toss up as I see is between insertcoin or neophyte

It will be the same problem...
Main thing im looking for is good battery life

Then AOSP ROM's like Oxygen should be best for battery life, you can also try CyanogenMod 7.
Sense ROMs are not going to help improve battery life, you're better off looking into AOSP for that. That said, you could try to alter your usage to get more battery ie: screen at a lower brightness, 3G off, no background syncing etc.
Redux is fantastic for HTC Desire, it's also a ROM that's made for the HTC Desire only, so it's very fine-tuned for it. Battery life on Redux was far better than CM7 and Sense as well.
can't post a link to the redux rom homepage due to this silly post count restriction.

Really great !!!
Why don't you try to change RADIO or something ... battery life won't improve by instaling other ROM cuz oxygen is the most battery efficient ...

Indeed.
Oxygen is less overheaded!
But we have to do "try and error" many times 'cause it's the only way to determine which RADIO is the best for your carrier.
Combination with RIL and RADIO will affect your battery also.
For me, Ginger Villain 2.6 + stock RADIO/RIL + MANU Kernel was the best.

[Q] Query What is the best rom for Galaxy Gio?

Hi, Community
Guys, I new in the world android, but i decided to buy my firts android and is a Samsung Galaxy Gio.... a friend told me that these phones can be overlock the proccesor and much more.
but needed a rom mod to make all these things with a stock rom will not let me, here's my question which of all these roms are the most stable mod to work well as stock? and please tell me what are the bugs of all those roms mod if you have any?
Thanks guys for help me in the world android
For me the Particle ROM as I do not like custom launchers. I'm really satisfied with TouchWiz.
There is a small issue with Wifi though, it disconnects every once in a while.
Aside from that, stability, performance and battery life is very impressive.
hey there,
I use Particle Rom....impressive battery performance etc...
I also use a custom launcher with it called GOlauncher EX - I love it.
hey there
I've been using CyanogenMod 7.1 RC3 since a while, and for me it works perfectly.
However,I'm not totallly satisfied withthe battery lifetime, except that, it works awesome, I've been able tooverclock it to 883 Mhz.
And if you are satisfied with the TouchWiz UI, you can find a tutorial in CyanogenMod 1.st post, posted by me, it shows you how to put TouchWiz UI on CyanogenMod.
I hope I could help, however if youstill have any questions, PM me anytime I'm usually checking XDA.
I'm using GioPro 1.4 for 1 week almost and i have nothing bad to say about it, except the battery life ... can't get more then 24hours, but i'm playing 2-3 hours and wifi its always on. but it works like a charm. + I use GoLauncher ex and DT app2sd . i have arround 40 apps installed and 178mb free of phone memory
Using a CM 7.1 RC2 modded a few by me. faster and more stable of rc3.
Anyone had score in quadrant like 1800 apart from using CM 7.1 RC2?
Im using gio pro 1.4.& not many bug in this rom.simple & stable

There is no "best rom", what can be best for me...probably cannot be the best for you. So, this can be a redundant thread since everyone can have a different opinion. The best way to do it..try every rom..and the one you feel it fills your daily needs..that's the one
On that note, thread closed.

No I haven't noticed any of those problems, the only problem is that you can't record in 720p HD unless you flash RCMix3D Tweaks wich is really nice.

Rate: best ics i have tried, if u can live w/o cam.
Written with blood
Rom:smartdroid 3.2T
Recovery:4ext recovery touch
Pro:sense 3.5 rom, smooth as butter, with rcmix v12.2 kernel battery life is amazing. Tweaks!!
Cons:with a lot of applications installed on sd system reboot randomly it self but I think is a problem of sense all 3.5 rom.
I really want to suggest to use this rom with this kernel and with nofrills make a little oc up to 1152mhz and ondemeandx gov. Brilliant battery life, brilliant performance. For very massive everyday usage!

I flash new roms every 4 days or so but I got to say coredroid 9.4 offers the best of everything. Battery life is great, lots of tweaks and personalization, blazing fast. One of the best roms I've tried since rcmix. I highly recommend it.
