[REQ] Legend to Slide Froyo AND sense?

Since the HTC legend recently got Android 2.2 Froyo w/ sense, is there going to be someone to port the rom to the Slide?
I love the functionality of sense but I don't want to have to downgrade to eclair to get it.
So if anybody knows about work being done on that or if someone wants to volunteer, please inform me and anyone else who passes by this thread

Its gonna have the same problems as the 3rd sense rom because we don't have the official 2.2 kernel for mytouch slide! Which means I don't think anyone is going to port it! Check out 3rd sense though its stable enough and is the same sense ui

yep, and actually i think 3rd sense is based on a froyo sense rom for the legend called gratiend so thats your rom right there, at least thats what the credits on the thread say..

I am currently running cyanogen mod 6.1 stable for my slide with clockwork recovery. Do I need to flash/install anything else before flashing this rom?

Nope, all you need to do is a wipe before installing it so you dont get any weird errors

Okay thanks I will flash it, froyo aside, are there any REALLY good stable sense roms out there? Not espresso roms but original HTC sense? flash would be nice

this one has flash lite as well... and as far i know this is the best sense based rom you can find for the slide go ahead try it and tell us what you think

Oh man it works amazingly, I had to disable javascript for the browser to run alright though. Otherwise it is an amazing rom. I ran into some less than polite stuff when I posted in the thread, but I suppose I am a noob. Thanks for the suggestion.

[Q] ROM based on WWE Android 2.1 with htc sense with all the +++ !

Hi - my Hero's !
Are U looking for a real hero ROM?
I totally agree with the quote from rdejager @ villainrom.co.uk/forum :
We can all face it - the hero is not made for 2.2 and even more 2.3 .... Our phones are just not made for 2.3 sense and 2.2 sense .... 2.1 sense roms run fine on the hero. and you can really see that they are made for it, cuss everything just works for it, the hardware is made to the software...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So - do U want to use the power of our long development journey in a fresh ROM?(based on WWE Android 2.1 with htc sense 2.1)
Good News:
-> Repack ROM from elelinux based on stock ROM 3.36.405.1!
-> VillainROM v13.0 Release * WWE * Android 2.1 *
-> other 2.1 roms
How do U tweak them? How du U like them?
Thankx for any helpful suggestions!

http://www.ekg-clan.de/pasta/hrdb/index.php?site=a21 choose the one you like most they are all good. but if you want only one named: Cronos 2.1.4.1 Sense Eclair

@iPasta: Thankx for the link - nice overview!
Like to try a 2.1 SenseROM again after spending a couple of months on Ginger & Froyo.
At first I want a speedy and stable build.
I have just tried to flash 7.0 v1.0 (Elelinux) - and no, it is still noticeably slower than Elelinux-6.2.0-RC0-Hero-Speedmachine rom (6.2). Slightly faster that 7.0 v0.9, but still far beyond 2.2. So; is it possible that a 2.1 feels again more faster?
Will report back my impressions - if U like!

I would suggest Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM. It is, apart of Cronos, the latest updated 2.1 ROM, and is by far smaller in size (nearly 30 MB!). In addition FlyKernel-12a is a good choice

@Krizp0 : Thankx! So:
Do U agree with:
"After a long time playing with 2.2-non-sense-ROM's, I returned to 2.1-Sense.
--> Nothing smoother than 'Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM' with FlyKernel 12a."

Well, I know I went from 2.3 Gingerbread to Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM and felt very satisfied with the speed and stability of good old 2.1, especially since Sense makes your phone full and not fragmented so you have to download widgets and other things to get it as you want. The only thing you may miss is the new functions and apps that require 2.2+.
Edit: I also encourage you to take a look at Tegro 2.5 RC3, it is very Sense-like, but I haven't tested it.

If you want a rom that is A sense rom 2.1 for the HTC Hero GSM and build for it and that just works 100%.
Use Villainrom 12. You can customize it with their kitchen. It may be old, but that doesnt mean its crap .
I myself flashed FlyKernel 11C BFS over it and it works fine here .

Why not cook a VillainROM 12 + (12.1 / 13) !?
Thankx for the suggestions - looking again for VillainROM (i'm a donator)!
I'm impressed and feel backed in my plan to downgrade to 2.1 sense Rom.
My question now is:
How do we can make "VillainROM 12" or other "2.1" Roms more stripped and tweaked?
What do U recommend?
- FlyKernel 12 / Implement Kernel tweaks.
- OpenGL
- EGL
- Gallery 3D
- Latest Gapps
- Implement HTC Hero OTA update 3.36.405.1
So - why not cook a VillainROM 12 + (12.1) !?

I am trying to implement this OTA into VR12.1.
Will play with the OpenGL things too

Jahooo! *perfectly happy*
Which kernel do U include into 12.1?

So far as I know a modded version of FlyKernel 11C Cuss 12A is buggy, for me it is unstable and I dont like it. now running 11C on Villainrom and well it runs smoother then 12A

Pulsar had a modded version of Flykernel 11C in his Froydvillain release. I was refearing to that.
What did I tweak. well the lockscreen, battery Icon, and I removed like 90% of the apps. and I updated EGL. And well I love it.
Now I am on Flykernel 12A M652-M176-noatime
I got awesome battery life.
I went back to Ginger for a test. and well no that was a no go....
The speed in Villainrom is insane.

RCMix is nice and all, but still even VR12 is bloated but RCMix, man... even if you remove all that crap. You can never get the speed of VR12.

@rdjager: How did you update the EGL in VR12?

Forget about Sense 3.0....It's not working on HTC hero:-j...to install it you need a partition on the sd card and some tweaks to install on the hero

Keeping an eye on the rom, people still say that is has some problems for every day use...

Sense 3.5 gave FC's a lot for me and it's just not ok generaly... Sense 2.1 is best you can probably have for hero.

[Q] Android 2.2 and Sense

I have not been following the custom roms news very closely these last few months.
I understand there is very few roms that combine Froyo (or later) and Sense (whithout which I don't enjoy the Hero that much) but which solutions exist?
Alternatively, is there a UI really close to HTC's with a recent Android version?

I was refering to that article: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/froyo-with-htc-sense-coming-to-the-htc-hero/

As far as i know, the android 2.2 version (froyo) with sense isn't so good for the moment, since nobody made a full working camera and other stuff
You have to wait for somebody to make the libs work...but if you want to experience sense 3.5 (since it's the latest) i recommend a new phone...since the Hero is to damn old
BTW: guys are working on a ICS ROM but for the moment we just have to wait for a stable release...and it seems that a lot of phones don't have a working camera... but don't be sure that the Hero will run ICS as a every day use.
Stefan

What good alternative to Seense is there then?

The best option for a STABLE AND FAST phone is the 2.1 version that was relesed these days:

You can use it without any problems Everything works

I guess I could give it a try.
Thanks.

I tried ]Decked_X that includes joins CM7 with android 2.3.7 and Sense UI. It's very fast and stable, but only support English language.

If it's CM7 run CM7 stock and if it's Sense UI you run Sense UI...this is my personal taste
2 things combined aren't so good looking... I haven't tried the ROM but if i have time, i'll give it a spin

no need for goldcards or things like that...
1. Root the phone via universal Androot
2.Install Rom Manager from market -> it install clockwork mode on the hero
3.Start Flashing
4.Enjoy
PS: i'm not responsable if you do anything wrong...It should be easy tho...

Failed! No~~~Fu goo~~~ on my Orange Hero
Z4root tells me the temporary root worked but OverclockWidget (for instance) doesn't work.
The permanent root (of Z4root, still) seems to work, I have some su requests with some apps but Rom toolbox doesn't work.

Hi!
Elelinux 2.1 rom is also very stable and fast. You could give it a try.

Yes, it is! I like that!
