Hello everyone,I buy one x in India,Last time, I upgrade to Sense 4.1,But i don`t like SenseUI, I want to experience JB4.1.In order to better experience, before I have to be ready for RUUV2.17.Where can I get it?
Not sure I get what you mean.
If you're looking for a JB rom, there are plenty of them out there. You can find them in the "One X Original Android Development" section. They have CM10, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid, MIUI and even AOSP.
Otherwise please clarify your question.
I already own HTC One X and HTC sensation Rooting and flashing ROMs over these devices gives you different interfaces to have fun with like flashing sense 5 over sensation or an AOSP ROM over HTC One X
And that like giving your device a new form and shape . so went should do that on Nexus 7 . will I gain anything different from what I have ?

I have rooted all my Android devices, but never owned a Nexus until now (briefly owned a Nexus 7 1st gen and was so impressed, sold it and bought my FHD). I just don't see any need to root my Nexus 7. It does everything I want out of the box. (Plus, I don't want to go to the trouble of having to have my memory erased when I unlock the bootloader).
My other devices "needed" rooting to work the way I like them to. For instance, stock on my Rezound would still be Ice Cream Sandwich if I hadn't flashed a custom ROM running JB 4.3.1, and the Transformer is still technically on 4.2.2.
Of course, YMMV and my guess is most folks here choose to root.

The answer to your question of course depends on what you want. I personally don't feel the need to flash any roms on my Nexus devices but I also can't live without the options rooting gives me. I'm a Huge fan of Xposed Framework and some of the modules like GravityBox and YouTube AdAway which works great for someone that has a lot of YouTube subscriptions. This is just my opinion but I just can't imagine having a Nexus device that is not rooted and I do realize there are plenty that are not, my brother is a good example.How can he have a 1st gen N7 and a N5 and not be rooted? The Horror! Horror I Say! No backups (Titanium - Nandroid)! And there are way too many easy mods out there like modified host files, and headphone volume mod and many others. There are some great kernel choices like ElementalX.. Is there a need? I won't dignify that with a response! Wait... I just did!

Just a word to the wise...if you must root, do it early. Data lost will be minimal (I rooted within 24hrs, so I lost nothing).
Don't forget that rooting and flashing custom roms are two different things. I feel that rooting is necessary for me, because I like having backups of all my apps, and being able to restore the same app and setups when I transition to a new device, or if I get my current device replaced (which I have had my Htc Evo replaced 4 times, and my tablet replaced once). I can live without it, but I really rather not to.
As for custom roms, that is my choice. I tend to have my main rom, and I flash new roms for fun. Sometimes, the troubleshooting helps to learn more about flashing and encourages trial-and-error. However, that's exactly what some people do not want to deal with.
HTC One XL/AT&T HTC One X - Sense 6 Android 4.4.2…: http://youtu.be/GlRQLlyLhuY
Hmm sense 6
Why you post this video in this section?
Maybe you want give hint to help devs port sense 6 rom on this model?
Just curious [emoji57]
Tap via Tapatalk
Full sense 6 will not be ported. Check out viper x as its has parts of sense 6 ported...even they won't attempt it because it gives way to many errors in general ! So let the dream go is my opinion. The device is outdated for many devs and have jumped ship to at least the M8. And most of the time when something like this is posted it only counts for the evita version as it has different hardware to our international one x.
It's not gonna happen
Can anyone port any custom rom(s) of One (M8) to his younger brother One (E8)? I'm not a developer but I think changing device ID and camera modules will enough (Fingers Crossed). Specs are similar to One (M8). No one is caring about this High End phone. Sometimes it feels like I made a mistake by choosing E8.
We totally need some ported ROMs on the E8!! BUMPED!
Don't expect too much support to none, most devs will jump to the M9 instead of stepping back to the E8
Please, guys, any ROM, or kernel? :C
Hello developers!
I am not savvy at all on programming but I had a question. Would it be possible to port the Google Pixel ROM to the HTc 10? I know the Pixel is made by HTC and the specs are pretty similar. I would not be able to do it because I have no clue. I was just curious if it would be possible (without a astronomical amount of work).
Thanks for any replys.
Good question, possible probably, how long and how much work. Well that's another question that requires someone with the ability.

question itself was really a discussion point not an actual question when you are asking nougat to be ported to htc 10 when mm hasn't yet been ported or even the pixel is yet to launch on many countries/areas/stores
pixel rom is vanilla nougat so the answer given was a discussion point again which is :good:

MM is what the device shipped with.

not vanilla MM its shipped with Sense based on MM...
google devices/roms are on aosp/vanilla/cm android and none of them of MM is yet ported to htc 10... you could see the progress of cm ports currently on htc dev threads

I concur with @SacredDeviL666, good discussion point indeed.
And yes sometimes i speak or text to carry on a point just for the sake of it.

You didn't say vanilla MM the first time around. The 10 shipped with Marshmallow and had access to the full feature set of Marshmallow. I know very well what AOSP is. It's exciting the sort of progress that's being done on CM, despite the calm of late.
Also, Pixel isn't Vanilla. It has added apps/features that will not be on Nexus devices, and are beyond AOSP. The Pixel ROM is a skinned Android.
There's actually a Pixel ROM made for the Nexus devices now! Can anyone port this? The link is for the Nexus 5X --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/development/rom-pixelmod-lg-nexus-5x-t3486862
With lineage, resurrection remix and some other vanilla roms, not to mention certain parts of the pixel like the launcher and I think the dialer have been made avaliable, there isn't a massive demand for it.. Not when there isn't really any difference between the two.
Perhaps the so called added apps and features to be added would be a better question and probably one with a more probable positive outcome.
@SacredDeviL666 Let me just hop in with the statement that Pixel ROM is not vanilla Android. Its close, but its not. Nexuses had vanilla Android. Having a custom skin (Pixel Launcher) and additions to the system that aren't part of the AOSP or available to all other OEMs makes the Pixel equal to Sense, TouchWiz, EMUI etc...
In a way, asking to port Pixel ROM is like to ask if someone could port TouchWiz ROM. You can imagine how hard it would be to port TouchWiz.
BUT, unlike other skinned ROMs, Pixel apps can easily be installed onto other devices.
As a conclusion, for a close-as-possible Pixel ROM, use the most vanilla AOSP ROM you can find,
and only install Gapps and apps that arent part of that package but belong to Pixel, like the launcher.

Pretty sure it's not impossible since it was ported to the Nexus 6P, 5X, 6, 9 and not sure what other so it can be done!

Never said its impossible, just that there's no need to port the ROM because you get most features by just installing Pixel apps onto your phone.
Some other things, that are Pixel exclusives, a bit harder to port. Or we may need to implement those from scratch. Also, the phones you mentioned are all Nexus devices
with drivers available. If you try to port to another OEM you will probably have part of hardware not working or working but laggy.
Pixel is made in perfect sync with software and hardware, and we don't know what optimizations did Google do for their phone under the hood.
