Am I alone in this?? - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Ok, so I sat around for a long time thinking about how I could get a sense 3.0 lockscreen without rooting (before rooting obviously). I thought 3.0+ was so incredibly amazing before I really dove into it all. Now here I am, wishing we could get the 2.1 lockscreen (which I like so much more) on more ROMs. I'd run 2.1 ROMs but I found through rooting that I like so many features of higher sense versions better, but want 2.1 back.
For instance, I like the 3.5 dialer and mms stuff, as well, as the 3.0 weather over the 3.5 version.... I also don't mind the 2.1 Rosie, but hate the overscroll. I love the 2.1 lockscreen, but can't have that and the features of others as well. Is it possible at all to make it happen? If so, I wanna look at making it work.
Am I the only one who's picky about sense ROMs like this?? Lol

certain things can be ported, just needs refinement
ie sense 2.1 lockscreen on a sense 3.0 rom (in this case tsm trinity)
the lockscreen works, just it would have to be hacked up to change resource ids to fix mismatches (in this case the music control buttons)

really depends how heavily a particular apk is tied into the framework on the particular sense version, and what its dependencies are

Yea, the idea of a mashup rom is cool. I'd like to see the sense 3.5 music and camera apps backported to 2.1. If it is as difficult as it sounds, it's not likely to happen, but that would be awesome. Cause sense 2.1 is the most stable on our phones atm, so using it as a base ensures stability. But I miss 3.0 and 3.5.

I would love something like this. I love the Sense 3.0 and 3.5 goodness but am currently running an AOSP ROM because anything higher than 2.1 chokes my phone.

In a few months we will get an update. We will probably get sense 3.5.
You are picky, IDK if you will find a Rom with all that. But I stick with stock because of the amazing camera quality. I'm still searching for the perfict ROM though.

I agree completely. I love the sense 2.1 lockscreen. It is simple and looks.really good. I agree a mashup Rom would be nice.
I think this should be your first project lol.

REQUEST - MIUI Lockscreen PORT

i wonder if its possible to pull the MIUI lockscreen into a sense rom. i dont like the "click-on-colored-babyish-iphone-icons-style" of MIUI but the lockscreen is awesome!
Any ideas if there is a way to do this?

Run launcher pro with MIUI and you won't have to deal with those "colored-babyish-iphone-icons"

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they still show that style on the app drawer or if placed on the homescrens?
I like a lot of things with the MIUI interface, but the thing that drives me away is the iphone-esque menu when you hit the menu button. I love the phone/dialer though.
MIUI should be enjoyed as a whole product, not in bits and pieces. But I'm sure someone could do it for you.

Laucher Pro will let you replace the icons with whatever ones you want when you put it on the desktop - there are plenty of apps out there that will allow you to change the look of the homescreens - but if it really is the menu system you don't like then hopefully someone can try and port the lockscreen for you
(FYI - here's my Incredible running MIUI and Launcher Pro)

i was thinking of making this exact thread. it would be great to get that lockscreen but I was reading somewhere that it is non-trivial to port it to CM6

Non-trivial? So you're saying it's important to port it to CM6?
If that's the case, it could be ported to MIUI as well, since they are both AOSP roms.
Unless of course you mean trivial, which makes more sense...

Non-trivial in this sense means not easy.From what I have read,the lockscreen is pretty tied in to the Rom.

Yeah, this would be incredible if this was possible. I enjoy MIUI, but it has its pro's and con's. I really LOVE the lock screen, but on the other hand I really am not a fan of all the white/light grey system menus. With the number of people that are obsessed with theming their Android devices I'm surprised there isn't any option to change all those menus to a darker scheme.

[Q] Sense Swype?

I have an idea. I have things i love about Swype and hate about it. My idea is this. I LOVE the standard keybard in Sense... But i also LOVE swyping. I love the voice to text in standard keyboard, HATE that swype uses actions to do it. I love the distance of the keys and feel of the Sense keyboard.. not so much swype.
Heres my idea. Take JUST the Swyping mechanism of Swype, and insinuate it into the Sense keyboard. I want a keyboard that LOOKS JUST LIKE my sense keyboard with the same tactile and audio feedback, same settings, BUT i want to be able to swype with it.
So it comes down to
1: Is this possible? (Has to be)
2: What will it take to get this done and on the forum?
Any feedback would be great... But id love to get this project started asap.
Im on a tmobile G2 Running Virtuous Sense v1.02. Lets make this work!
My idea is this.

i just changed ROM's to one without sense and with swype and the original is much better looking.

But slide it doesnt have some features that Stock Sense Keyboard has, and it doesnt look like Sense Stock Keyboard.
My idea is... Some how editing the Stock Sense Keyboards APK to insinsuate the Swype, Or Slide it Mechanism into it. Idk, Blending the two together if you will. I want my keyboard to look EXACTLY like u see above... and i want to be able to swype with it with a black line as the trace.
I Know somebody can help me.
I don't think merging the 2 keyboards together would work, I imagine the developers of swype wouldn't be to happy if someone tore the keyboard apart and used the code in another keyboard.
The new HTC Doubleshot rom has a swype style included so this may be what you are are looking for.
You can make swype look like the htc keyboard have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838269

[Q] Help - Not sure which ROM to go for ?!

Hi guys im a new android user - about a week old now.
I recently flashed to Lite'ning coz people are talking about it and i guess its popular.
Im not happy with the icons and blue/black theme that comes with it.
Which ROM should I go for if i want to achieve the below theme? I have read a few good ones VillainROM / LeoMar ? What are your suggestions?

the very last image looks like Launcher Pro. The lock screen could be done with Widget Locker. Not sure about the first two home screens.
I'm running SensioN ROM currently. Happy with the way it looks, performs. Battery life seems better than stock, also.
I'm personally using VillainROM, and it's great. I love it, and would recommend it.
However, I'm also planning to check out Cognition 1.32 when it comes out.
Hi, I'm not sure from which Rom/themes those icons are..I was also from Villain to Litening, great Roms but now on Leomar since the last 2 days..more customizations available and many themes/options you can choose from the kitchen app! Easy to try it..just download the Revolution app from the market (link also provided from the Leomar sub forum)
then just download the rom from there..make sure you have back up your device using CWM first as this is a wipe ROM...good luck!
The latest MIUI Tom is fast, stable and extremely pleasing on the eye.
With base MIUI you get the best of Android mixed with the best of ios, clean and easy to use.
If you want it more Android do as I do and run ADWex or Launcher Pro on top.... makes for the best user experience in my opinion. I have tried many custom ROMS but keep coming back to MIUI.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
The first two pictures are from MIUI.
Not sure about the last one, but guess it could be done by applying custom theme and launcher.
ROM.Batista70_3.5_By_SnakeS( which seems to be removed from xda) + Kernel.ninphetamine-2.0.5
Good battery life and nice to look at.
I'm using LeoMar's ROM as his ROM Kitchen gives you plenty of customisations options to choose from. It's like building a ROM the way you want it. I use MIUI from time to time - The most recent update has gotten ALOT better.
I suggest Leo's rom. Super battery life and great performance.

what about a bit of MIUI? or something more drastic like sony ericsson components?
A little bit Modified Miui Rom would be better then to much Sense roms. We have only 2-3 Miui Roms, why not more?
Sorry, it isn't, I don't have one, but after someone may change some of the installer files so that it has support for CDMA.
Noted. Good Idea, everyone likes the simpleness of MIUI (except me), but it will gain hits!
Will it be sense based? If not. I prefer Themed ICS.

Well that is not possible unless u are talking of themes of sense on top of jb,which is possible by using go-launcher but full sense 2.1 on in is going to be a miracle

No im just talking about that sense Launcher, and the themes and the Apps,

There was a Launcher Pro Sense UI that someone made... it's not a theme though, the actual app files are modified, it's pretty realistic. You might have a hard time finding it, but if you look in the G1 dev. forums, look for GinSense - it's a Sense themed Cm7.2 - that contains the aforementioned app, if your willing to download >50Mb of unneeded stuff just for that.

It's based on Gingerbread - it does have the basic framework themed, such as status bar, lockscreen, etc., so you'll have to be willing to do some porting of the framework. You might as well take them from a real sense ROM if you're going to do that. Speaking of which, why do you want to make Jelly Bean look like the sickening gloss of Sense 2.1? If you like Sense, at least go for Sense 4.0+, and install VenomZ or something.
Just my opinion.
