[S][DEV-ONLY]HTC Sense

This isn't another one of those 'can somebody port Sense' threads.​
Please note that this thread is for developer-oriented discussion. If you don't have anything to say to help development, please refrain from posting here.
Also note that ideas are welcome. Just check if the idea you're about to post has already been posted by somebody else.
Right now, it's just multiple people working on this. No team, just individuals.
As of the last edit of this post, there has been little to no progress:
I'm constantly working on builds. The current, and the only goal I'll be striving towards as of now is using a T-Mo HTC One X ROM in combination with RaymanFX's CM10.1 RC2 build.
XDA RC @abcdjdj has reported that he has fixed a lot of errors in his build, and is now stuck at the bootanimation. If you can help him in any way, here is what's wrong with his build. He's using FXP's CM9 as a base and a 4.0 HTC One X with Sense 4 ROM as a port.
The OP will constantly be updated with any progress anyone makes.
We're currently using this XDA thread to help us port the ROM.
--------------------------------
​Here's everything I have to share on my build:
PORT: HTC One X, T-Mobile Edition| Android 4.2.2
BASE: Sony Xperia S, nozomi | Android 4.2.2
------------------------
ITesters needed. If you can work through adb commands and can provide me with logcats, please leave a post about it in the thread.
And finally, a note to anyone that may be cursing me for working so very slow (because I admit, this is very slow):
Please understand that all this isn't easy for me. I have painfully slow internet, making each download at least one hour, and thus a pain. My time on this project is limited every day, so progress is slow.

Okay, so this is the work that has already been done and some of the mysteries that puzzle me right now:
I've edited the CM9 kernel's ramdisk, like stated in the tutorial I'm using (see post 1). As of now, the kernel itself is broken and even if the ROM was complete, not even the booting would work. (Well, booting works as far as showing the boot logo (the green FXP one) goes. But the LED notification light for entering recovery doesn't light. Bootloop over and over...)
Many of the lib files intended to be copied from one lib folder to the other are missing on our Nozomis... My question is, what are the consequences...?
My main issue here is that the zip won't flash. The recovery (no matter which I choose) just returns an 'ERROR' and refuses to flash the file...
Another question would be how to repack an .elf kernel into a boot.img. Because now, I'm trying with letting the CM9 kernel in the zip (since it is an .img) and then flash the modified .elf kernel that I repacked with Flashtool. Inefficient, but at least there's a way.
So currently, the priority list would be:
1.Get zip to flash
2.Fix kernel
...Not necessarily in that order. We could fix the kernel first, but there isn't much gain to it if the ROM zip can't even be flashed to test if it truly works...

Bro, it may be possible to get Sense on our devices. Even I have been working on getting Sense booted on our device. My status:-
PORTED FROM - HTC ONE X
BASE - FXP 215 CM9
STATUS - Gets past kernel and even loads bootanimation. Fixed many errors in the logcat. Gets stuck at bootanimation and even displays a message saying that System is not responding, would you like to close it.
I couldn't manage to fix any more errors in the logcat so I gave up but you have rekindled my spirit to get Sense booting on out device. I will upload my rom soon along with the logcat.
Cheers,
abcdjdj

Wow, you actually got the thing to boot?
The only question is how did you manage that based off of a tegra CPU? Would be very interested in seeing that...
On a not-so-very related note, your port was of ICS and Sense 4 , correct?
Am I the only one around here that favors old software?

Not fully booting but I think close to booting. I followed the guide mentioned by you in the OP and one by one eliminated all errors that I could eliminate. I had been working on Sense for around a month during my school holidays but now I am not getting any free time. And yes it is Sense 4 (Android 4.0.4).

But isn't the Tegra3 completely different than our FUJI board?
Especially the graphics, those must be out of control on your ROM...
If I were you, I'd at least take the AT&T version of the HOX.
Oh yeah, I forgot to ask: is it the same if I try and port from a MSM8260 board (the same as the Xperia) and the later S4 Qualcomm versions (used in the Xperia T, AT&T One X etc.)? Because porting from a CDMA phone (HTC Rezound) seems to make the work harder...
Thankfully, my summer holidays have just begun, so I have plenty of free time (that's also the reason I started my project).
P.S.
Yeah, maybe that's exactly what I should do. Ditch the CDMA phone and start with the Snapdragon S4 One X!
I would prefer Sense 3.x, but oh well, at least Sense4 is also Sense

I just found this. It's not even that old...
Anyways, I've been thinking if the devs of this would be able to help us.
This development stuff gets boring pretty quick when you do it for the 10th time

@samuel2706, could you give these guys a little hand?

But he's a HTC Dev... Wouldn't we need something more like a nexus or better yet a Xperia developer?

Well, I thought I'd make this thread so that devs could help each other to actually work together and create a working Sense ROM. So naturally, all help is welcome from anyone.
Anyways, I'm on my way to finishing yet another try, this time with the AT&T One X. Fingers crossed that it at least makes it to the bootanimation.
EDIT: I see that the easiest way to get Gapps is with including the default /data folder from the original HTC ROM (with vending, youtube etc.). But I have to add that to the updater-script. So, I want to ask, is /dev/block/mmcblk0p14 the data partition on the Nozomi?

What's happening?

Hi,
I am porting [or trying to port] Sense 4 from HTC One X to Xperia S. I used FXP 214 CM9 as a base. I followed this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245786
Then I fixed as many errors as I could by checking the logcat and got it till the Bootanimation. But now I need help to get it to boot. So, I have attached the logcat from my latest build.
Thanks for your help,
abcdjdj

Maybe copying a few more files could help. Maybe act like your xperia is a HTC device? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1222746
Could be worth a try and play with this copying a bit...

Seems to be failing at dalvik; very strange, it doesn't show any major errors on first glance however I'll take a longer look at when I can, however I can link you to this thread that may help you in the meantime Porting

What about this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2276871
Nice and automated, but the question is, will it work?
I'm trying it with the HOX, just need to wait for it to copy to the phone...
All this seems like a big race -- who will get it working first? Hyped!

Kinda makes me wish I still had my xperia S I could have given this a real good go at; but instead I have a galaxy s4, so it's going to be mostly logcats and such I can help with, I don't like blind building things; made that mistake before.

A blind build is better than no build. Unless it makes bricks...
Thanks a lot for helping out.
Though I'll never understand how a pro HTC dev can go to Sony and then Samsung. ;P
I just hope THIS time my kernel will boot... Cause if it doesn't ... [censored]...
EDIT: Okay, [censored] is happening... Why can't I make this zip flash? I've done it a million times, but all I get is ERROR... ;-;

unfotunatly, i'm not a dev. but i really like the idea. specially if considering porting htc one sense version to our nozomi. i think it would fit like a glove

CyanogenMod ROM?

Anyone trying to make a stock android ROM for the Tab 3 8.0?

Yes as the nice guy before me allready posted I'm actually working on a Stock Rom for the Tab 3 8.0 but I have to work a lot atm so it could sadly take some time. If a booting Rom is done I'll post a very early Alpha Version not for daily usage of course just for testing purposes and that you can help me finding bugs or help me to fix them. But actually I'm working on the boot.img to get into the System.

Any progress? I'd love to try at cyanogenmod but I'd prefer to do so at my tablet instead of my phone, since I really need my phone constantly and I would like to know what all the differences are before trying it at my phone.

Has anyone started the device tree? I'm going to try to attempt getting this to work. If someone has started the process I don't want to do all the work twice. I'm definitely a novice so don't expect this Rom to come to fruition soon or at all.

karthick's cm14.1 is it 4 real?

I've searching for karthick111's cm11 folder, then i saw a folder called "cm14.1" with a zip called "cm14.1-20161220UNNOFICIAL-nevisp" and i downloaded and flashed it but it bootloops :'v
Does anybody know if it's usable or a wip?
Pd. There a bootable cm13 rom that i'm using to write this :v
I'm sorry if i had a bad engish, i'm a mexican :v

Yeah... I have just flashed it, but it has been in a bootloop for 20+ minutes already. Needless to say, this is probably a test/WIP CM14.1 build that @karthick mostwanted is testing for the Galaxy Fame to see if it will work at all. From what I am aware of, later CM ROMs (CM13, 14, and 14.1) will not work as well as they should on this device as it is low-end and doesn't have the RAM or processing power that is required, however, CM13 is fairly usable from what I have tried, but I still find the CM11 (KitKat 4.4.4) ROMs to be the best. Then again, it is always good to keep and eye on and test the latest builds that the developers release, as I have seen some older devices get ROMs which shouldn't work on them because of their hardware, but do, because the developer is able to configure it to make it work.

I'm disappointed
I don't know why everyone being stalkers
The work is not even done yet and u guys are posting it here without my permissions
Yes in next build I will try to brick the device badly if this persists again
If the work is done I will share it for sure
Don't irritate developers by doing this way

Fair enough, but I assumed that since it was publicly available to view and download, then it should be okay to publicly discuss about the development surrounding the ROM/s, but I guess not.
Thank you for the time and effort you put into these builds and the continuation of custom ROM development for this device.

Thanks for this awesome ROM. Just wanted to be the first to tell you
---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------
I was able to successfully dual boot stock ROM and LOS. There is an app on github named DualBootPatcher which is compatible with our device and if anyone wants to use it just pm me. I won't discuss this here as we want to keep this thread clean.

ANT Service will not work as this is a stock TouchWiz Feature. HR sensor will also not work ever.

Why did you make a new thread? Is it because this will become the thread for official lineage? And if so where will the other ROMs be posted? On the nexus7420 site? Sorry for the questions but hopefully the answers clear everything up.

For being official, we need a "clear" thread. That means that we need to have a thread only for LOS and separate ones for other ROMs.

Congrats on going official team :good:
Wouldn't it have been best to wait till you're given the greenlight or does a topic need to be made first (then turned official)?

Reboot
Hello,
I have this rom on my phone, galaxy s6 flat.
At the beginning, the rom was functionnal, but now, when I connect my phone to the wifi or the 4G, my phone reboot.
Please somebody can help me ?
Thank you.
And this rom is very cool, good luck for the developpers :good:

There is a very clear section in the OP on how to report bugs. Follow it if you wish to be addressed

Hi,
To be honest I don't get the situation with official /unofficial yet. Didn't you post yesterday, that you pushed/moved your sources to the lineageos github project itself? So then why is there a build server and your own github link here? Shouldn't that lead to official builds on the lineageos page?
My second question is: you ask for donations especially for a build server for you own nexusrom which seems to be a fork of lineageos. I'd really like to donate there to support your further work, but you don't describe how that works.
Finally : I'm currently on your april/23 build and with the audio patch you provided that is working great. The only problem open is, that VoLTE is not working for me. Do you have any plans for this? If you need someone to debug there let me know, though currently I'm not able to even activate it.
Finally : thank you very very much for your great work.

It clearly states in the title that these are UNOFFICIAL builds.
No word of donations is mentioned on the thread.
VoLTE will not work as this is not implemented by LineageOS.

Thank you guys for all your hard work. Im going to try this out on g925t with duelboot. Hope calling works now?

Setup wizard force closes on rr and lineage on mu g926t. I flashed them with duelboot and it happened so i tried a clean install and it still happened.

Please read again the title: only for G920F and G925F. No G926T...
Edit: Did you mean dualboot? If yes then you need to know that it may create instability in the multibooted ROMs. For me everything works

I got it working with duelboot. I just flashed the ROM without gapps, booted it and then went back and flashed gapps. Thanx again developers!

Great rom, i love it, except for the obvious bugs. Anyway, i can't turn on my bluetooth speaker remotely anymore. The manufacturer website says you need BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) for that, does anyone know if that's a LOS bug?

Calling still likely won't work. There's binary blobs missing and we need a different kernel.

when making the thread you have to select from dropdown about what android version you are building so android O is probably not available yet that is why he selected N.

Is RIL working good?
I can help test this ROM if calling,etc is working

How long we can expect a next update? And are you looking forward to supporting this rom in the future?
Thanks for the work.

Volte is not working .

Hello thanks hogger,
There's something called courtesy. When it's really clear that Davide was working on AEX and fixing things, it was a bad move for you to post a build with his sources before he posted his build. He is focusing on quality and trying to fix all major bugs before releasing instead of giving people half baked stuff. So I'd suggest you get this thread closed and not pull such stuff in the future.
Regards,
Another person who was able to boot oreo but is waiting for Davide to release his stuff first

So far, loving the ROM. I've been waiting for this ROM for a long time now. And here are few things
Cons:
VoLTE not working
Recents tiles are inverted
Camera doesn't work as expected.
Heating can be expected.
Pros:
Smooth for an initial build
Android O, period
Its simple and clean.

Hi sir,
Your work is amazing, i can't even imagine how you managed to fork my great and better than you fellow friend Davide's device trees and compiled the rom.
Truly amazing sir.
I admire your work, I still can't think how much brains would it be needed for making an unofficial thread even when Davide(my great and better than you fellow friend) didn't gave a word of quitting the AospExtended.
You are truly awesome and Davide's(my great and better than you fellow friend) work will not be as good as yours i think.
Thanks a lot for your true hardwork rather than Davide's(my great and better than you fellow friend) simple bug fixing work.
Thanks again.
I wanna donate you rather than donating hard working Davide(my great and better than you fellow friend)
Regards,
Harvey Spectar
