How to port sense

Im wanting to lean how to port roms to my galaxy nexus ie the ics rezound rom. im new to porting and would like some help like links etc on how to do my best in that area, i think there will be a load of people happy with a sense port as there is none out there at the moment so if anyone know the basics please help

It's not possible. I thought the reason people on XDA bought the Nexus was for AOSP.

Nm, u? Me and swamp are working on it, but no build has booted yet. The epic is much harder to port to. I may be able to help you guys on sense though since I know pretty much what swamp does

Would love to see Sense ported - the more options the better imo!

agree!bought nexus for the absence of proprietary-eat-ram-UI.hate all the stuff involved on the classic ui out there,likes touchwiz,sense,motoblur etc etc.
i don't know why lost hours and hours of development to try to port a thing(proprietary UI)that is the major reason why many users choose to buy a ggogle experience phone.i don't want to be rude,tastes are tastes,but i personally dislike all the uis out there.
anyway,if you desire that,i'm glad to will see that someone will have it workin!

Have to agree with you !
I used HTC phones for over 2 years (before GNEX), and i can say im sick of sense/touchwiz and rest manufacturer ui..
I bought this phone so i can make my own ui.
But if OP likes sense, its his taste/needs.. Good luck in finding sense on gnex mate

sorry to burst your bubble it will NEVER happen. it relies on sense UI to function. will ONLY work with Sense UI unless of course a app developer makes a replica of it

It will never happen...but you can use FLIPBOARD that in my opinion is better

This has to be one of the most useless features I've ever seen in a phone, to be honest.

maybe because HTC one x is 1280x720 and HTC one is 1920x1080, and our phone is only 800x480????
S3 or S4 have the same screen resolution as HTC one x (S3) and HTC one (s4) but for me is an epic fail lol

It is also being ported to Galaxy s1(sense 4) and it is also being ported to HTC one v, which also has the same resolution as our Ace 2
So resolution wouldn't be an obstacle for us
And one x(I think) haven't got official update

yes, I have a ONE X too and I have official 4.2.2 with sense 5 (the same as HTC ONE to be honest), so believe in me, resolution is an obstacole, because images are in a different resolution..senso 4 was ported to s1 becuase it was taken from an htc with the same resolution..

Inviato dal mio GT-I8160 usando Tapatalk 4

resolution of device doesnt really matter a lot though
it only makes it easier
like on the HTC Xplorer Pico they ported Sense 4.1 from XHDPI device and fully resized every single app manually
but if u take from same res u wont need to do this
although Sense 5 needs ION and tons of other 3.4+ kernel related stuff inside kernel to even boot its harder then something like sense 4 or sense 2.0+

the question is who build like this ROM???
Sent from my GT-I8160 using xda premium

Anyone know how to build this rom?

Sense is an HTC product and not open source. Just a thought...

a htc device is THE product. sense is a UI
Sent from my GT-I8160 using xda app-developers app

Sure, because HTC didn't produce their Sense UI?

I've seen this kind of movement before on many devices (mainly xperia phones, cuz they got ****load of buyers so also developers). The outcome, after of course hours and hours of work is a and IF it boots, is a buggy and laggy rom which nobody is ever going to use except for some developers. I'm not saying that it's impossible...I'm saying that it's not really worth it. Oh and before you start responding 2 things
1st: I'm a big fan of sense. I just LOVE this thing
2nd: If we want sense we need more than just one experienced developer which is able to spend time on this project, porting Sense really can't be just a weekend hobby.

Samsung Galaxy S7 ROM Port?

Hey there devs!
Uh, I was just wondering if any of you guys can port the Touchwiz UI or perhaps, even the new Note 7 Grace UI ROM for our OnePlus 3? This might be possible if we take the ROM from the Snapdragon 820 based S7 as base, right? Asking this cuz the new Touchwiz is really optimized pretty good and looks pretty neat.
Thanks in advance

You'd have to heavily theme a CM ROM if you wanted it to look like TouchWiz.
Porting Samsung ROMs to non-samsung devices has always been somewhat unsuccessful due to the audio drivers and camera drivers being structured differently. Unless we have someone talented enough to redesign a driver for those things.
I wouldn't mind Grace UX on my OP3

But its strange to ask for a port of IOS to samsung device. I like apple products and theirs operative system. They fit so well with each other. They still use dual core cpu (1.83ghz 6s) but its on top. Osx is so battery friendly ram management friendly etc . Android is so power hungry.. use more than 2times more battery. Once iphone gives dual sim model ill switch for it.

which method/tool are you using to do so?

Some people hate TouchWiz other love it, but I think the good of Android and the Oneplus with the capabilities to port a ROM. So let's do it I will try it on my OP3

Just read the article on here about how poorly optimised Touchwiz is on the note, and how it hampers performance, and then this.
