HTC Sense Apps on CyanogenMod 6 - Possible?

Sorry for the NOOB question, but does anyone know if it is possible to install any of the HTC Sense apps on top of CyanogenMod 6?
I love the CyanogenMod ROM's, but there are also some things I like about HTC Sense too. In an ideal world, I'd like the following:
- CyanogenMod 6
- HTC Sense E-mail App
- HTC Sense Widgets
- AOSP Standard everywhere else... Contacts, SMS, etc.
Is this possible?

No impossible but you can find similar apps for each

Short and to the point answer is....
Nope, if you want sense, then run a sense rom. But you can use google to maybe find other applications that can mimick what you want to accomplish.

Yes, I'm using Fancy Widget which is one of the most important... I just wish there was something like the Sense e-mail app. The AOSP e-mail app, isn't as user friendly... I've looked online and tried K9 (no good for Exchange, which is what I'm using) and Touchdown (doesn't integrate well with the rest of the UI)
Do you know if any of the Sense Froyo ROM's are supporting multiple exchange accounts yet? I know Cyanogen's does, but it's not Sense

No. Most HTC apps require the framework from a sense based rom. And the HTC widgets only work with Sense.
For future reference, questions like this should be posted in the general or apps forums, or if you really need to post it in the development section at least ask the question in the appropriate rom's thread. Not trying to be an a$$ but thought I would throw that out there before anyone jumped all over you.

Did this really just get asked? again?

Q&A sounds like theright place to post this.
As other have already stated, try the market place for similar apps.
Cyanogen is open source so asking for sense apps is like asking for a pair shackles to go with your get out jail free card.

And i quote from the man himself......
"THIS IS NOT HTC SENSE AND NEVER WILL BE. DO NOT ASK ABOUT IT IN THIS THREAD. THANK YOU."
if you know anything about cyanogen, which you should since you are using his rom he will never ever ever ever ever use anything but stock android thats one of the reasons that his roms are the best, plus he is the pioneer for android customization!!!

i dont believe the OP was asking for sense to be integrated into CM, just if htc widgets would still work, and if not for good replacements. Not everyone knows that they need the sense framework to function.

Some have been ported over.
Search around.
Other's generally don;'t work. Sprint apps work regardless of framework.

Yeah, I can understand where the OP's coming from. I love the CM ROMs, but there's a couple parts of Sense that I wish I could install piecemeal on top of it.
It would be ridiculous to imply that Cyanogen should ever incorporate them into his ROM since the lack of proprietary crap is his biggest attraction, but at the end of the day I still miss that stupid HTC weather widget.

That's exactly right Scooter, thanks...

[Q] Note widget like Sense?

I really enjoyed the note widget that came with Sense, but now I'm on the Kingdom Rom which didn't come with it. I searched around the market and the closest one I could find was Whiteboard, but it doesn't let me draw directly on the home screen. Any ideas?

Add Widget>Get More HTC Widgets>Notes.
Edit: Didnt See That You Tried It Already.

Is it possible that we can install the apk from a stock sense rom?
I used the task widget one and now I am forgetting stuff. lol. My phone runs my life.

Yeah I went through the HTC Hub and I only found the Word of the Day, Daily Challenge, and Fortune Cookie. I do enjoy the Daily Challenge, but I still miss my HTC Notes
I was wondering that as well. Unfortunately, I don't have the skillset to try to extract the widget from an earlier version of Sense.

People widget?

Just got my CDMA Gnex today and after rooting/unlocking, chose to try out Team BAMF Paradigm ROM. Everything works great, but I noticed that the "People" widget that I saw in advertisements for the Nexus appears to be missing. Is there an apk for it somewhere? Should I reflash Gapps?
Sidenote: is the Facebook sync not supposed to work with ICS? I remember reading it a few months ago but haven't been on an ICS ROM until now; any work around for it?

[Q] Newly unlocked - what now?

Hey guys! First off thank you to the community as a whole! I have just sunlocked my HTC desire z using guides found on this site and tried out a few different roms found here as well. I'm currently on cyanogen mod 7, but have tried out cm10 (jelly bean 4.2.1). Which was a bit buggy and kept getting android keyboard failed messages. Windows 8 (looked cool but couldn't get it out of chinese :0) so I found the cyanogen mod7 to be the most stable fo far...
Anyways, I love messing around with my phone and pushing my phones capabilities.
So what now? What have you guys done with your phones? I want to hear about all the cool stuff you guys have done.. why? well, so I can do them too of course!
In particular, is there any really nice widgets you guys use? I've tried a few email widgets and sports widgets but I find the email widgets are just not very effecient with multiple emails (I use 4 regularily) and the sports widgets don't update unless I click the widget to open it, complete defeating the purpose of a widget.
Thanks again!

[APP] Terrain - New Launcher from Samsung

Hey guys,
Just found this and thought I'd share in case anyone wants to give it a try. Its a new Launcher from Samsung, called "Terrain", that is intended to make things quicker and easier to access. It's still in beta apparently, so it probably will have some bugs, and will likely be updated fairly often as they find and address them. I'm not able to try this myself right now, so I can't give any personal feedback on it, but figured I'd let you guys know about it anyway.
You can read more about it and get it at the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.terrainhome
I also have it uploaded to my Dev-Host account in case anyone wants the actual apk file to play with, or incorporate into a rom. You can download that here: http://d-h.st/KmA
Sammobile has a small write-up about it as well. You can read that here: http://www.sammobile.com/2014/06/17...een-launcher-app-for-all-android-4-2-devices/
Let us know what you think if you try it out!

Not bad
Tried out the whole of yesterday. Not bad in my opinion.

I tried it too. Couldn't get the Facebook news feed to work and it doesn't let you choose which phone number to use when you click on a favorite contact. Also it would only show the notification bar if you pulled down from the very top and their was no setting to change that. Other than that I liked it

Do you have and can you submit the new APK of Terrain launcher? (The realease date19.06)
I'm living in Europa and I can't install the app from Play. (Out of US can't download.)
THX in advance!

Maybe someone can install, copy and attach it here for us? I would but my device is broken.

I'll have it up in just a moment
DONE

Awesome!
Waiting....

http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/ is a very useful tool, but they have a max download/day

Thanks Bro!
I try it.

Its great to know that samsung is working on a new launcher. TW home is seriously outdated and should be replaced. If google launcher wasn't included as an option in the ROM I'm using, I'd be rocking this in a heart beat. Looks awesome.

FB new feed doesnt work.. cant update the launcher as I dont live in the US

Here's the latest version, 0.374, released July 2, 2014

Get it from play store, several updates since then. GREAT launcher, fast and smooth

Thanks for this doc. Didn't notice this or know anything about this until now. Look forward to modifying it some myself and inverting it.

I checked the Google Play version number, which is 0.400, and searched based on that number. The same version number is at the link below. I've downloaded it to my Moto G and the app works, including the Facebook sign in process.

Thanks for posting the link for this launcher. It is by far my fav. It has everything you can need and it doesn't seem to slow brown the phone like others.

Samsung seems to have not done any more with this for a fairly long time now. Do they have something else out instead?
