Boring ROMs - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is it sense lollipop that all Roms are exactly the same.
Of course I'm not a Dev or a themer of any kind buy damn if people Don't take the easy way out when building a Rom just to push out a buggy non stable edition of the most recent .
Please ,all comments welcome

Pretty much all of them,
AOSP,GPE ,SENSE
I have met all requirements for every Rom with clean installs like we should all do and damn if either "videos" or an actual apk like the gallery just don't work.
I lack in the smarts to actually dev these Roms or I would put out a 100% stable one off Rom without a commit or half ass cherry pick from someone else's work with the same issues .
A fully unlocked phone that we can do anything with and it feels like an AT&T S4 with a locked bootlooader

Taking the easy way out? No. Developing a ROM is not easy. This is very disrespectful to the developers who provide these ROMs. They provide these ROMs free of charge, in their own time, for everyone to enjoy. If you're unhappy with the ROMs on offer I suggest you learn to develop and create a ROM yourself.

I'd like to have this as well. I think it would suit the gorgeous display pretty well.
Let there be a fully working AOSP first and then I'm sure someone will look into this.
+1 here. I saw this rom yesterday and I wanted to sell my phone for a GNote ;p

I'd like to get it on our Beast !
O yes,brilliant
put that ROM on my wife's note it is very nice
someone always said to me..rather than wait from others to do things for you it is always best to try yourself. so that is what i will be doing. i really want to try an AOKP rom again and the only way i will get to do that is by porting one over myself or build it from scratch..will take a few days or a couple of weeks but with bit of knowledge i have and few friends i know that can help me why not i say... thanks for bringing this to my attention. best get working then
That's an awesome name for a rom, but I would rather see the AOKP team develop a rom for the HOX.

This is really lovely. How I wish I could use the Sense Mail, Messaging, Camera, and Contacts on AOSP/AOKP. Those apps are the only reason I stick to Sense.

MIUI still uses Sense framework someone on the MIUI forums. So maybe something similar can be done i guess...Like i said my knowledge is basic but like kryptoner said there are tutorials online and few as well on the cyanogen wiki pages. i will try my best.
Still hankering for a taste of paranoid android, it looks perfectly suited to our screens
I also would like to see this on our HOX
Wow, thats the best looking ROM I've seen. Hope it comes to HOX soon.
I'm still waiting for a half good looking ROM on HOX.

[PROJECT]Collaborative Sense Port

Hi
I've created this thread here in general to try an effort to a collaborative port of (any) sense rom to galaxy nexus, lets to the point:
I was trying a different rom instead of the stock. Why? Because a custom rom with sense provide lots of things that stock doesn't have (init.d for example). In my case, I was using Insert Coin for One X, because in the past I had some success with other devices.. well. I didn't had the same success with galaxy nexus.
Of course any rom can be used, we need success in this port disregard the rom used.
Obs.: For people unable to help and able to troll, this isn't a thread for trolling/blaming/"giving the unrequired opinion about it" or "why not buying a HTC phone instead", please, you can create your own thread for that or just use your facebook.
Thanks
I think there was already a thread about a wip port of sense and touchwiz that booted but some major stuff wasn't working.

I have one question about porting sense, what ROM is the best to use as base, cm10 or aosp?
I did some porting on my Droid 3 so I want to try on gnex also.

Yeah but as I can see, they're focus in specific versions, and I don't care about versions since it works. And I want a specific focus in join efforts to port sense.

It's relative. AOSP will be more easily imo, but in other hand, cm10 can be adapted, since there's cm10 for tegra (so we can adapt the source code, if someone wants to give a try). I was trying with cm10 4.1.1 btw (cause the InsertCoin is 4.1.1).
My Octo-oraculus says that there are few other threads like this and NONE of them will end up with something actually usable.

Btw, I was thinking about trying backport the sense for Nexus S (since there's one port that was almost successful), the only problem is... the best port for NS is Gingerbread-based and I dont know how much effort will be needed to adapt a 4.x kernel with a 2.3 rom.

[Q] Sense Rom for i317(m)?

Just as the title says im looking for a good sense rom for our gn2. Please point me in the right direction.

...you do know that sense is only for HTC phones right... and it is closed source so porting sense to a non-HTC phone would cause the dev to get into legal problems and not only that but it is near impossible to do it because the phones are too different. so in short there is not Sense based rom for our phones.
Depending on what custom Rom you use, not tw based. You can get your phone to look like a sense. I've done it practically mirrored the HTC.one x. Themes and launchers can do this

I've seen it done for other phones but it isn't worth the trouble tbh
Agreed Crixley...
Sense seemed to make more problems than it solved for me...
And after 3 HTC devices. ...I converted to this device. ..and IMHO....Touchwiz just kills sense without question. ...g

ViperX

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Can someone please tell me it isn't true.
Just read it myself, grim news indeed but that's all she wrote I guess. To be fair to rich is there any more he could do with this Rom? He has took it so far and I thank him for that. Time to look for a new device as future updates either official or Dev will dry up
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
True about the Rom and development, it's definitely a beauty. We owe rich and the whole team a big thank you, so thank you
I am also very said as viperx was the very first rom I ever flashed and I think the other roms will never have even near as many features as viperx. :crying:
I just hope maybe other dev will take the project from where Rich left it and provide a few more updates.

Sad moment for hox users, for me best rom, we lost also good kernel devs....this device is dying faster than his older brother Sensation...
Yeah, even the desire had longer support than this. Guess I will wait til the new year and see what comes outs. No point buying the one when they will announce a new flagship early next year

Well, maybe some dev will support viperx we will have to wait.
And i can't afford htc one, or htc m8, i am happy that i bought hox, it was a nice upgrade from Sensation, so i will settle down, see what will happen with viperx.... :S
I can't afford it either, but I could get one on contractb as my bro can get me 30% of the bill. I love my one x with viperx just feel left down by official support

HOX isnt lucky at all , once you take a look at its older brother you ca understand what I mean , if you check the HTC Sensation you will find it has much more suport
there you will have a nearly stable KITKAT ROM, not only one 1 kitkat ROM but 3 Kitakat ROM
developers there has been able to write a whole new kernel for Sensation from scratch
Team Venom over there has been able to port Sense5 to Sensation , now my sensation can run 7 different versions of Sense
Our HOX is still young but sadly there isnt much of developer love

It's not because of devs, it's because of tegra, nvidia, htc....tegra is crap for porting, nvidia is bad for drivers, and for htc is hard to relase kernel source code for nearly 4 months....
My other device with is desire hd still got MORE support than my beloved hox(and it's like 4 years old now? :/)... can't believe that the phone "died" in development for only around year and a half activity in that section. Every dev moved out from the phone like it's some kind of epic fail. Maybe it is, dunno anymore... ;(
It's not hard to understand, the phone itself is no epic fail. To me a great phone. The restrictions in hardware make it very hard to port software easy. That's the main reason !
I'll miss viper. I guess its time I go back to good ole stock.
If anyone skilled here can port ViperX+ rom to ONE X, than me and monarx could continue support to ViperX as we would be updating same base, and we would make common rom for both phone's.
Thats just an idea, i have no actual phone to try it my self, even phones are very similar it could be tricky to do it, but no impossible.
Viper Thread shouldn't be blocked, it will be the best rom for months even discontinued, if it's blocked it will die in days

No because he clearly said that they have searched for another capable dev that fits the team but without succes. Jan is to busy developing for the one.
The best thing if you want rom support is to sell the hox and by a nexus 4. Just saying

[Discussion] Which ROM would you like to see on our device?

Hey guys,
Yesterday i was able to boot up a HTC One M8 rom (Android 4.4.4) on my Desire EYE. Alomst everything is working, expect of the camera and wlan for now.
As it is only Android 4.4.4 i do not think this rom would improve our Desire Eye. So i wanted to ask you which rom you would like to see on our Desire Eye and if there is any reason why to port a stable Android 4.4.4 M8 rom to our device ?
Cheers
If you could port over the Google Play Edition M8 Rom that'd be great.

When HTC brings us Lollipop, I will deliver CM12/PA/AOKP. Not worth investing too much time into an Kitkat these days.
A Sense 7 port from the M9 would be fantastic. I really want this device but the development is non-existent. Why?
Who knows, for some reason it didn't raise too much interest in devs and people in general. Too bad, because it's very very good.

Sadly the main issue is waiting on a lollipop bootloader for the eye. I have tried multiple times running various lollipop roms and can't get anything to boot and there aren't any true devs that own our device that are willing to put that much effort in. Once we get a lollipop base to work with I will be continuing the sd roms development though!

Not full sense 7 but I have provided the files for you to try out some of it in the themes and apps thread for our device.... I would provide link but it's not like there is a ton of posts to sort through around here ?
Has anyone tried to port Harman Kardon's audio enhancements of the M8 on the Desire Eye? It should be easy since both phones have pretty much the same hardware except for the cameras, which has nothing to do with the audio
