hi, I´m running ics cm9 on our phone, it´s almost perfect in all the ways, but unfortunately I miss the fabolous camera I had one day, so I was wondering if there´s a way to put the ics contacts app and when it rings, the ui look the same ics???
I would be perfect if we had a ics ui + the camera and max speed
so what do you think is it possible??
sorry if I´m at the wrong place, I usually use it just to read and learn, I barely write here

Okay, let me state my dilemma:
- I don't really like the Sense ROMs like the stock, LeeDroidHD, RevolutionHD,... mainly because 1. the style insn't really my thing and 2. they have the bluetooth issue and I like playing games with the wireless classical Wii controller, wich I can't with Sense ROMS.
- I love CM6 & 7 and MIUI apart from the fact that they have the "black unresponsive screen after call"-problem... wich really is a dealbreaker (you can't go around yanking out your battery every time someone calls you, it's a $600 phone, you expect it to be able to make calls propperly... it's madness)! I think the problem might have to do because of the missing Rosie/Sense wich the Desire HD needs to work okay. Or at least to not have the stupid "black screen"-problem...
Now my question (and hope) is regarding the MoDaCo ROM:
Does anyone know if I can strip of the Sense-ish stuff in the kitchen so you have the look and feel of stock Android (Froyo), but keep the core of Rosie so it can handle the phone fine?
Isnt there already a modaco rom like that

doing that would defeat the object of what you want, if you stripped down a sence rom, you could make it feel aosp but it would still be using the htc framework, hence you wii controller wont work
ANGUS!
I have nothing useful to add to this thread.
Alright.. so we all probably use virtuous rom, gingervillian,cyanogen or miui.
I wanna know why everyone chooses each one.. I've flashed all and am just curious to why everyone else chooses the roms they do.. what really makes you stay with the rom you have??
I run miui. To me cyanogen lacks full customization. And has no benefitial features over miui. I get same battery life and phone runs smoothly at 1ghz as it would on any other rom. ONLY issue is random reboots. Which is a theme issue not a rom issue.. And I don't care for sense roms.. to me they slow the phone down.. although I am waiting for cm7 to become stable before my first flash.

Currently I am running MIUI. I'm still getting used to it but overall I like it. I love the UI. It looks clean and it's quick.
Stock post ota deodexed.... because every other rom gives me some sort of problem that there is no guide to fixing and I don't have the time to troubleshoot the bull****
Whats deodexed mean??

The 1.2Ghz clock speed from the God speed thread.
Anything higher than that affects my battery and I don't see any obvious benefit as I don't play any games that need a higher CPU.
virtuous because of eye candy and htc streams are awesome!!
which rom saves battery most?
I use CM6.1.1
I previously tried Virtuous because I always wanted a Sense phone but realized Sense actually sucks, well the messaging, gallery and dialer at least.
I use my phone heavily for A2DP bluetooth streaming and apperantly cyanogenmod is pretty much the best rom for bluetooth audio quality, also the added equalizer feature is awesome. Its just like the stock rom whish I loved since my nexus days but with just the right amount of customization.
MIUI looks annoying as hell, why not just buy an iDevice if your into that UI?

When you install an app, sometimes it comes with an odex file (i believe it's an extension of some sort to the app) When you are de-odex'd, it merges the extension (dot odex file) with the apk. The only reason I wanted this rom was to use themes for stock roms. I also found that it boots the phone up a hell of a lot faster.
Highly recommended for people who want the stock feel but like small mods here and there.

That's not a rom...
that's a kernel........... *facepalm*
I run Virtuous for a few reasons:
1. camera - the stock Android camera app is abysmal. Few options and not easy to use in the least.
2. music player - genre support is a big one for me
3. Sense - I use LauncherPro, but I prefer the sense contacts and other features.
4. I installed the 3D gallery from stock, so I have access to both. One other small benefit of the otherwise useless Sense gallery is a scrollable 'share' pop-up. On stock ROMs (or CM), if you have too many options in this menu, you can't scroll so you can't access them. Sense lets you scroll the 'share' list.

Not everything about miui is iphonish... and even the parts that are you have options.. the menus? I turn those to the standard grid. the icons? Not all are uniformed "squares" all thou the theme is use they are. But I actually am I fan of uniformed icons. I think it looks cleaner.. imho. What about miui looks annoying?? I admit the original launcher is lame. But I don't use it.. I think docks and notification bars are lame. I don't use either and rock adw.. swipe down for notifications and up for apps. plus you can't tell me miui lock screen isn't sexy..

So I have bounced from Sense roms to trying the ocassional CM7 or AOSP rom for about 2 years now...
I REALLY want to go to either CM7, Xplod, or similar AOSP roms but cant figure out if there is a way around or a fix for a couple things that just really drive me crazy on the AOSP vs Sense roms...
Is there any way to import the sense version of... or any aftermarket alternative to:
#1- the dialer. Ive tried Dial One, and another (forget the name).. nothing comes close to the Sense dialer in my opinion. I HATE that the AOSP doest do the T9 thing that would let you quickly find a contact by hitting the number pad.
#2- the gallery. I really dont like the 3d gallery that ive gotten on the recent roms. The simplicity of the gallery that came on the older Sense (and the synergy roms) is A+ IMO.
#3- the voice recorder. Not sure whats up with this, maybe just a bug on the Xplod rom I was using, but it would let me record but not listen to previous recordings. Had to go through "movies" to listen after I found the saved recording in the SD card with root explorer. lol.
#4- The Camera... tried to use titanium backup to install sense (htc camera) on AOSP.. no dice. FC city
Although this is only 3 little apps.. its some of the things I use most and really hate the AOSP versions. ... really love the sense versions.
My current DD is Synergy with Myn's theme. I love... LOVE... the look of the rom but its a little slow, doesnt notufy with the LED, has very limited kernels, and bettery life is sub par IMO.
Im almost ready to go back to the Evio 2 1.8. That and Myn 2.2 are the top2 ive ever had on the evo. If I could get the good parts of sense on the AOSP id be all set!
Thanks for anyone who can offer any help!

not sure on the 1st 3 but have you tried MIUI's camera? I know, its not sense but it seems to be the best IMO
thanks for the reply. I tried Miui, my biggest problem with that, is that it doesnt refocus with screen taps.
Im constantly chasing my kids arond trying to grab that "quick shot". The htc camera is awesome for this.
Hts video recorder also has a really good option to refocus WHILE recording, somthing I cant seem to find anywhere else with AOSP options.
I DO like the miuioption to touch anywhere on the screen for shutter though.
So for "#1", ive downloaded about 5 different dialer apps.. Go, Mydialer, Angel, Touchpal, and Ray...
One of those will hopefully hold me over. If there's any way to get the HTC dialer to AOSP that Ive missed, someone please correct me!
Anyone know if the 3.5 Sense Gallery will work on AOSP?
Go Contacts has a dialer like that, and it's has some decent themes. I like QuickPic for my gallery.

I like the MIUI camera but don't like that I can't access the front camera

I use Fishbowl for my gallery as the Cooliris gallery that comes with CM7 is garbage.
Just FYI, the Amazon free app of the day is Contapps, which has a very sense-like feel.
Quickpic is my favorite, loads everything super fast.

Hello !
I tried alot of Roms on my Wonder..
Honestly I stopped at F.A.W.
It's the best one for me, battery is OKEY, not goot but okey..., I don't care about the Design. BUT, I hate the GB Lockscreens..!
I hate the Code lock, Pin lock, draw lines lock (what ever it's supposed to be called in english, im german..) and slide the screen away. Samsung did a really dirty job with the lockscreens... I mean, loock at the iPhone. Im not a fanboy of iPhones etc. but sliding a Button ist the best lockscreen. Or HTC Sense, slide away a ring. Man that's what I call lockscreen..!
The ICS Lockscreen is also alright.
I want ICS Lock (or if possible, HTC Sence Lock) on my Wonder (F.A.W. Rls2 - Gingerbread 2.3.6)
I know there are Apps/Tweaks like "Hololocker" etc. But honestly they never work right for me..! The first few hours everything is alright. Later, it starts to show the wrong Time etc. AND sometimes I even need to go through TWO Lockscreens. The standard GB one, and Holo Locker...
And in fact, this is really annoying me. I hate TouchWizard and the general "Samsung Style", and If I knew this before, I would have bought the HTC Desire S or something like that. But Im okey with the Wonder, and I don't want to say it's a bad mobile, cause I would be lying...
But the Lockscreen, is the only point which is really annoying me hard..!
So, is there any possibility to install ICS Lockscreen on GB ? A Mod ? Which works well and don't gets stuck all the time ?
I'd appreciate help
Btw. Im not using ICS Beta 2, because the Batterie is really just a piece of... on my wonder. It lasts 4 hrs, while I do absolutly nothing. (well okey, sometimes i check the Time, but that can't use my battery that hard...) AND the WiFi Connection is awfully slow on my Wonder... So I want to stay on FAW. Just wanted to mention that..

Hi
to till now me also didnt find ICS lockscreen yet & i use all 3rd party apps like Holo Locker (sucks) iPhone locker or GO Locker (much better then others) but ICS lockscreen is very good, So there is no zip flash file that you want (in my view)
If u really crazy for ICS lockscreen then become as CM9 series ROMS such as inDroid RemICS, Digital AOKP, Bio Hazard, etc...
you'll able to see ICS lockscreen and all functions on ICS in your GTW.

I know, but I hate these Launchers. None of them works well. No one ! (in my opinion..) and I don't want to use CM9/10 because the WiFi Connection is really too slow for me..! +Battery drain...
So I want to stay on GB... Think there's nothing to do for me...
When I was still on GB, WidgetLocker always work without fail.
I've left GB, though. I'm on CM9b3 now with 'pristine' install, and couldn't be happier
-- GT-I8150 + DXKL1 + CM9b3 + xda --
I have been running CM7 for a while and I am fairly happy with it. I seem to like the basic function over what I have see on other people's phones with either ICS or JB. So I want to ask what advantages or better functions would make me want to upgrade? Maybe better device support? I do notice that my wifi drops off a lot but I also have friend's with the SIII stock and they have the same issue.

>Better Contacts app

JB
>EVEN BETTER APP SUPPORT!!!
>BUTTERY SMOOTHNESS
>GOOGLE Now
>Expandable notifications
>Photosphere
>Gesture keyboard
>Lock screen widgets
These are just the main bullet points IMO there is no reason to stick with an old outdated OS. I used CM7 until ICS came out officially for our device. CM7 is based off GB which first came out in 2010! If you're wary of custom roms at least update officially and enjoy the most of android.
If your into flashing roms there are many stable ones running Google Now on ICS 4.0.4 if you are just looking for updated google apps. JB isn't officially out for out phones yet so the devs have done a good job of porting roms so we can use JB if you want to. I would check the threads on JB roms and decide which is best for you.
Thanks for help
Thanks for the insight. I am still on the fence but it is not like I can't revert after playing a bit, isn't that was a nand backup is for?
