[Q] Sense ROM Port? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I Was Wondering Is There Any Sense Port For The GNexus(Toroplus) Or If Not Is There Any Good Porting Guide And Good Phone To et The Port From? Really Wanna Try Out Sense 4.5 Or 5 On This Phone

No. It's also likely not going to happen as there is no HTC device with similar hardware as the GNex.

Sense & touchwiz are horrible anyway, especially sense.

I would like one also maybe one with sense 5 because sense 4 was really bad for sense.

Sense 3, 4 are annoying. TouchWiz, yurgh. Looking forward to Sense 5 though. Sadly there will never be a working Sense port :s

Sense Port?

Hey I did some searches and couldn't turn up any solid answers to my questions but is it possible and likely we would get a port of the sense rom to galaxy nexus or is there a reason i don't see a stable version in CDMA Development?
Its possible but unlikely. Most people buy nexus devices to get away from skins.

If it is ported it's likely to be broken.

I don't really see the point of porting Sense to a Nexus device. I mean, since it wasn't originally to this device, it will be buggy and probably never run smoothly. Sense is very beautiful, in my opinion, but it's bloated beyond usage.
On a completely unrelated note, my favorite two ROMs for the Galaxy Nexus are AOKP for its customizability, and CM9 for being, well, CM9.
True that, thanks for all your imput! I guess also since sense is HTC it would also work easier if it wasn't a samsung...I just thought it would be interesting if you could have the launcher and widgets minus the bloatware apps.

I like simplicity at its best.
I can recommend buying Beautiful Widgets!
For those saying a sense port would never work on a nexus or would run buggy check out the nexus s 4g dev section.
I just switched to a gnex but I believe if they did it on the ns4g it would never be impossible to do it here

No camcorder, no Bluetooth. Read the thread, it's buggy.

You'll want ROMs which say they're for marvelc, NOT marvel or a510e.
some arent all to specific
and would you recomend this or the optimus elite?
I recommend the optimus elite imo, the wildfire s is a great phone but for me I like my elite better

What would be harder to do?

I was wondering what would be harder to port...............Touchwiz, Sense, or Aplications Platform(Motorola)?
I'm no expert on this topic but sense would most likely be the hardest to port. As for easiest I have no idea
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Yeah I'm liking how Motorola is going and I like the way touchwiz looks but people get mad when I ask about a non-stock ROM on a Google device.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I'd say the Motorola I went to a Verizon store and played with the RAZR m. Widgets are nice and overall u.I. was smooth. Was ICS BTW... sense would be amazing and maybe stutter proof ( we do have a beast of a phone)

There's a guy in the dev section who has been working on the ports , still not mega stable so they all look like a pain. Give him a message am sure he has more info

NO offense but IMO, Holo is the prettiest launcher so far. Nothing can replace Holo on a GNex.
But looking at the progresses, sense seems to be the most easiest (or most worked on) so far cuz months ago i saw TW ports and Sense ports but nowadays i only see Sense ports.

[IDEA / QUESTION] Sense Port?

Okay so I had a Dinc2 before this and my dad just got the DNA... I really miss Sense haha
To get to the point: I am nowhere near a developer but I think I could port Sense to the Gnex if I had some help. If anyone is interested in trying to do this let me know!
I will probably try to get Sense from either the DNA or the X, the X has the same screen resolution so it may be easier... either way lets see what happens! I've already tried twice and it failed. Like i said... I'm no dev
I have the vzw Gnex so i'd start with a toro build and go from there if we can get it working properly!
You have way more important things to worry about than screen resolution...
People with more experience have tried and failed. Don't waste your time, but try if you really dare. Like the other guy said, the screen resolution isn't the only problem. It's probably the least most important issue.

Yeah dudes there is a lot of stuff.. Ya really think its that bad huh? Damn that's disappointing. I think a sense ROM would be pretty boss for the community. Make all of the ones who bailed on the gnex jealous hah

Getting it to boot would be fairly simple compared to getting everything to somewhat work...

sweet is far from an accurate depiction of it.
sense is far deeper than 'a skin'. its in the kernel, the modules, the drivers, everything....its a bloated version of android that needs to die.
whaaaat! i mean okay its not amazing but it is kind of cool cmonnn

"Cool" is an opinion. Its difficulty to work with (unless your device has Qualcomm silicon) is a fact.

A sense port would be fun to play around with, but it was attempted about a year ago, and ended up being abandoned. There is do much that is closed source in sense that it would be an uphill battle to get it working. It would basically take an htc sense developer to make this work... So who knows someone on the htc dev team?

I saw someone working on it for the S4 already. Not sure which section the thread is in, how far along they are, or if they've given up; but I know I saw a thread on it a week or two ago.
Its in the international thread i9505 and I think someone else is working on it with hime

It is all about the person. Some love sense (I was one of them until Android) some like TW. Some like AOSP. It is all in the eye of the user.

They started working on sense long before Android. It started as a WM skin called touch flow.

I prefer touchwiz. Then aosp. Sense sucks.
