I know the chances of what I'm asking are really slim,but just wanted to confirm whether it is possible or not.
Ok,I'm considering the possibility that it isn't possible,then is there any 3rd party app which is as good as the stock one ?
Tried camera360,MiuiCamera,lgcamera but nothing can be compared to the stock camera app at least in focusing capability,and that's what I need most from the app.
If you know a better app,then please suggest.
Thank you.
You can't use any stock HTC Sense software on a non-HTC sense ROM.

Will it ever be possible?
I mean, when x10 gets rooted, will it be possible to "extract" mediascape application and port it to, say, desire? SE has said that scapes are just applications.
I know they (x10, desire) have different screen resolutions.
Anyone?
Not really I don't think.
It would be possible to port the rom if someone works on it, but that means downgrading to 1.6 just for the SE apps and losing the HTC Sense apps.
Downgrading to 1.6 to get something that our phone (IMO) already does better?
Unfortunately unlikely to ever occur.
I dont really think desire does media playback better.
I quess i'll have to find myself btundes, or something.
out of curiosity, why would it not be possible? Exactly? In laiman terms?

It's very possible to do but no developer is going to waste their time with it since there is almost no demand for a Xperia rom on the Desire. No one wants to lose multi touch and go back to 1.6.
Isn't Eclair also able to run the Scape Applications from SE?
So when Apps are extracted, ported to our resolution then it should be possible to run them on our stock roms as well, shouldnt it?!
Correct me if I'm wrong. Just a guess... I'm still new to Android-Section here
yeah, thats exactly what i had in mind. Is it possible to just "extract" the apps?

If's it's as integrated as Sense is then probably not.
Yes but WinMo Developers are also porting drivers and stuff of the many different phones (LEO Drivers to X1, X2 drivers to X1, X1 Drivers to Blackstone, etc)... so whats the big deal here with android?
Hey guys, ive been messing about with a few roms and they are all great but i think my favourite is opendesire, the only reason i dont like using it is because im not a fan of the camera application, i really like the htc one so i installed Pinkys rom but it doesnt have a feature i love in opendesire, its when you click on a contact it pops out giving you the option to text/call whatever, is there a way i can install the HTC camera onto open desire or even just all of htc sense?
You just need the stock contacts in a Sense ROM. I would recommend getting a MoDaCo ROM and baking in the options you want...or just put up with it as I doubt Adam is going to add an HTC app when the point of OD is to be a stock as possible
Any chance of giving your thread a title please? It would help people see what help you need.
Thanks.
Hi,
I was gifted the Sony Ericsson Arc as a replacement for my current phone the HTC Desire. After using the HTC Desire for the last 1 year , I am finding it very difficult to get used to the Sony Ericsson UI (problems like : no smart dialer, the contacts are all messed up,all the text size is huge, the randomly flickering display etc..).
I was wondering whether there is anyone or any place I can pay money to create a custom ROM. When I say custom ROM I dont mean Cyanogen or others like that (I mean the stock ROM with the proper replacements for dialer,contacts editor, facebook integration etc..) , I just want a ROM on my phone which will look and feel like the HTC Sense UI (again I am not asking for the actual Sense UI, as I understand thats impossible).
Thanks.
Any help is appreciated.

You understand the HTC apps require the sence framework, so they will not work on the arc, there are many other dialer and contacts replacements, you can download from the market, Go dialer and contacts for example is excellent
The makers of TouchPal Keyboard have a smart dialer app called TouchPal Dialer. Haven't tried it out but it's available for free on the market.
The android 2.3.3 update brought Facebook integration to the xperia range.
How does relate to my post?

Thanks for the info.
Sorry, I should have explained. You wanted a custom ROM basically a stock ROM but a replacement for the dialer, right? I was just pointing out an app using which you could replace the stock dialer (and which supported smart dialing).
Facebook integration was another aspect you mentioned.
xboxfanj posted a thread by which you could the Sense 3.0 Lockscreen using Agile Lock. You can find it here.
EDIT: Sorry, I misread your post. I thought you wanted a stock arc ROM with the necessary changes; not the HTC ROM. Ooops!
But hey, I got the Sense 3.0 Lockscreen part right. LOL!
Blagus is working on a HTC Sense port for Xperia Play http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174309 once he starts the work it maybe matter of time once we get it for Arc since both are almost similar. If your talking about hiring someone then talk to one of the developers who are willing to accept the offer.

Well that's kind of the problem, I don't know which developer to ask. I can't do a post in the Sony Arc Development sub forum, cause the rules say I can't post Q&A queries in the forums. Is there any one I can ask or PM to find out how to build this custom ROM ??
As anyone else can tell you, a custom rom for the arc maybe a while before all the functions are workable, the camera is the problem, so maybe do as others have suggested and use third party apps to get the experience your after

The main problem with custom ROM is going to be Camera function because Arc has the latest Camera technology they haven't released the drivers or source for it so developers can make it work on custom ROM. So we have to wait until someone manage to port one so others can use it.

Thanks for the reply.
However I have explained in my first post that the kind of custom ROM I am asking is based on the stock ROM with appropriate replacements for the dailer,contacts,facebook integration,text size etc... Basically I want to simulate a Sense UI.
Perhaps a theme could you help you out for the time being till someone makes a custom ROM for you? At least you should be able to get similar icons, background wallpaper etc.

This seems to be the most commonly askes question in all the ICS and JB threads. If you search through the Desire HD development forums (fora???) you'll see evry single ROM with ICS and JB has camera issues of one kind or another. Some of them have a semi-working camera, some can record video without sound, but up til now, none at all work completely. There is also an issue as to which camera chip is in your phone, different regions/countries/networks seem to have different cameras, and I haven't yet seen anyone post a definitive guide to what is where, and what works with each ROM. All I can suggest is read all the posts in the ICS dev threads, make a backup of your current ROM and flash away until you find the one that works best for you. A lot of people are hopeful that the newer Jellybean ROMS will be fully functional shortly, but for now, if a working camera is a must, stick to Gingerbread and use an ICS theme with a launcher like ADW or GO.

Is there a way get the sense 6 camera app onto the gpe Rom. If so . How do I do it
You can get the apk on there but it needs sense to work
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
independent app
Is it at all possible to make that camera app as an independent (from Sense 6) app ? Or am I dreaming ?

Dreaming. It relies on the sense 6 framework which isn't included in GPE models. (AFIK)
?!

I understand that part, where it relies on Sense 6, but how big is that dependence and how impossible is it to make that app work by it's own, like any other (sideloadable ) app ?
I mean I am not gonna handle this "issue" myself, but I do wanna have a clue how it works and how come it's that hard to do or maybe completely impossible ?!
This app is the only reason me and a lot other will not want to flash GPD on M8, cuz the camera is "bad" enough already to risk it, make it even worse ) Otherwise HTC did a great job adding a lot of hardware support for M* in GPE rom.
Thanks

I was just thinking of that exact thread; as I remember when the dev posted it, and have linked to it several times in the past myself.
Technically its "possible" as almost anything is. But whether its "feasible" or not is a completely different issue. Basically no dev is going to put that kind of effort and time into something with not that much payoff; when you can just flash a Sense ROM.
