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.

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

Why do I eat an ice cream sundae and drink a slurpee outside in minus 25 degree weather, while it's snowing, in the middle of winter? Because I can.
Okay so first we get 50,000 battery threads, then 20,000 Galaxy Nexus is slower than a flying bumblebee, and now we're on track for 1,000 Sense port threads. Why can't you people just join in someone else's topics?

the question is:
WHY?
Why is this in the Galaxy Nexus section? Should be moved to the Nexus S general section. In any case, seems like a stride in the backward direction.
lol
why htc
I agree that this shouldn't be in galaxy nexus general. But if we got a GB sense port, we would all flash it by curiosity.

I owned several. Legend, Desire, Desire HD, and Sensation. I loved them all. I like sense but like aosp even more. It personal preference. But don't tell me you wouldn't be curious enough to flash sense on your Nexus I'm not saying keeping it on there.

Unfortunately I believe he meant to post it here, in hopes of more excitement. Since the nexus s folks are probably well aware of this. I'm going to let this remain for now, since there is a chance that someone may share his sentiments (albeit very very slim chance).
I'm not sure however why you would want sense on a nexus.

Seeing Sense on my Galaxy Nexus would scar me for life. I have already seen too much of Sense...terrible things, things that cannot be unseen. I wake at night in fear that my Nexus wants to suggest matching contacts. Noooooo. I kid, I don't think Sense is that bad. It is what it is.

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app
If it is ported it's likely to be broken.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2
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

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)

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4 Beta
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

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.

"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?
