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

CyanogenMod 9 Wallpaper for all ROM ?

Please could you give me the backgrounds of CyanogenMod 9 RC1 for Galaxy Nexus?
Sorry for my bad English

Perhaps you could extract them from the zip file within the rom? I'll try and look...

Aren't the CM9 wallpapers the same as CM7? Some of those go back to CM6, if I'm not mistaken. Although that pair of (blue-footed) boobies is a swap for another pair.

CodeNameAndroid is BACK ! :)

" CodeNameAndroid is BACK ! Packed with almost EVERY feature wanted on JB "
Yes, that was my first impression, when I saw CNA was back. Uncertain about the whole situation this dev had with his kang bash. But it's up to you whether to support the Dev or not? Or I think its only up to those who got the harm from any previous actions, and only them shall accept the apology. Or we can just use the ROM and move on with the old story? It's 50/50 opinion. Feel free to state
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/31447-rom411aosp-codename-android-300-jb07312012/

His thread got closed right after the first day, and then got reopen. anyway now that I know, think it has to do with the old story. And a thead by him is not even present on XDA yet.

Or you could just ask for a title change in a more polite way instead of being a smart ass

Change the title to Blackdroid is BACK!
Few change their names (and don't tell anyone) for genuine reasons.

There is nothing wrong with it. Its fast good on battery life, stable and most of all you can customize anything.

MIUIAndroid is different, a lot cleaner imo. And there hasn't been an update in a few weeks so I thought maybe some people would be interested in an unofficial port. If nobody wants it I won't do it.

As of yet it hasn't been done, its possible but certainly not easy. You can watch the CNS developing thread although the dev hasn't said anything in a long time.

you think it would need a rom bas like cm10 or slim bean i mean i know its not gonna be a full port but a skin on the rom which is i think as close as it gets

Personally, I dont like TouchWiz. But if you are running CM10 or some other custom ROM, I'm sure you can get a TouchWiz feel with launchers, themes and keyboards. Im sure there are TouchWiz apps around too if you search for them. Thats probably the closest you'll get
EDIT: A few things I found that you may like.

You look at a lockscreen for less than 4 seconds while unlocking. I hardly think that a fancy lockscreen is necessary.

Sell your Galaxy Nexus and buy a S3.
I'll never understand why people like TouchWiz, or any of the other layovers like Sense & MotoBlur.

You don't need to replace the boot image. All the Gnex variations use the same kernel.
Unless you compiled your own kernel?
Either way, I might be in on dev for this, downloading the Premier kernel source now, will see what I can't replace with gnex stuff (driver wise), the phones are pretty similar.

I will open the tread today if my internet won't ask like a b*tch. Yesterday it was uploading at only 1kbps .The kernel is just the cm10 kernel with a modded bootclasspath to boot this rom.
