[REQ] Final Gingerbread with Sense (and US English) - G2 and Desire Z General

I would like to request if possible for someone to make a ROM based on the Final TMOUS Gingerbread ROM found here and including the HTC Sense found in this ROM here but with the added support of US English for Sense (only UK English is available in the Sense ROM so far).
This is sort of my dream ROM and I can only imagine it may also be for many more. Tons of thanks is awaiting and with high anticipation.

just wait a few more weeks and it will be released officialy!

HTC Sense is not just a program! HTC Sense is a composition of many programs and alterations to the Android system. You also need specific kernels and more thing to make it work.
You can't simply copy sense onto a non-sense rom. This will not work. To have Sense working, you will need a Sense based rom to start with.
What you would like, the T-Mobile release with Sense will never happen...
You will have to wait untill the Gingerbread release for the Desire Z is released. Only then will you have a final rom with Sense.

For a start wrong section should be in general.
And if I understand you correctly you are asking for an aosp rom to be merged with a sense rom? Generally getting elements of sense to work on a stock rom is very difficult because most aspects of sense need the sense framework and to get it worrking you would end up replacing most of the stock rom, so you may aswell just use a sense rom. Some things can be ported to stock roms though, you can get the sense keyboard and the live wallpapers, off the top of my head that's all I can think off.

unfortunately not really possible. Sense is a FRAMEWORK, not just a launcher. It includes SO much; it would be very time consuming to do, and you would end up with something that lags, and that is very unstable, Why? You have many good roms to choose from.

Lol this cracked me up. "I have no clue the ridiculous request and complexity of what I'm asking, but let's throw it out there cause xda devs are here to serve!" Think you need to learn a little bit more about your phone, android, and xda, and come back. Not being rude, I'm being honest. Your lucky you have not gotten worse responses than you have.

ROM Request - Vanilla AOSP 2.1

I am not knowledgeable enough to do this myself, or I would. I would like to request a plain AOSP 2.1 build ROM for the CDMA Hero. I figure since the kernel source code is out and Android 2.1 source code is out, this one shouldn't be too difficult to achieve.
I'm not big on the extra apps in a ROM either. I'm talking almost barebones. I don't want Sense either...just a plain AOSP.
Anyone want that too? If so, add your comment here and let's see if you can get someone more skilled than me to do it.
I also realize that it does take time to make a ROM, so if this doesn't come to fruition I'm not going to get upset, but figured I have nothing to lose by asking.
Thanks
yeah would love 2.1
i love the bottom menus with the dots instead of drawer and new icons
i hope its like this onedaylol

A plain just from source build would be right up my alley as well.
I also would like. Anyone want to start a donation pot for the dev that does it? I would donate.
Me too. Just like the Nexus One, no Sprint-specific apps, but also no funny stuff like adding apps or changing colors. What is AOSP?
AOSP = Android Open Source Project

I usually hate posts like this, but the situation DEFININTELY called for it
Sweet, Advanced On-Board Signal Processor, got it.
Uh, that's a joke btw.
+1..... a fully functioning plain vanilla 2.1 ROM for my Hero!!!
This may take some time.. Although we have the kernel, from my understanding there is still some porting that needs to happen to the 2.1 code so that the AOSP will run on our phone with all the different hardware. HTC was right on time with this release i was two days away from ordering an n1 from google. guess ill stick around and learn as much as i can and see what happens
yes please. as plain as possible
You can use flipz 2.1 Rom, turn sense off, and that would be a 2.1 vanilla Rom ...... that is what I'm doing right now for the moment

Besides having the hero apks, does this ROM (when sense is turned off) look and act like the Nexus 1 ROM?
(I would try it for myself, but I don't wanna go through the hassle of wiping my device and restoring all the info/data)
Thanks for answering my question.
PS: I actually like Hero's Phone, Contacts and Calendar a lot more than stock.
Yeah, I would definitely be interested in this too. I just switched over from a Touch Pro a few weeks ago, and have been reading up on Hero ROMs, but none have really caught my attention too much yet. I'm not usually a fan of all the HTC goodies....
(Also, I'm a new poster here.. This seems like a better place for Hero stuff than where I was over at PPCgeeks)

If only
The kernel source is out, yes, but for 2.1 to run at its best, it needs to be running 2.6.29 kernel version, which is not released (for our phone). I'm working on a port, but so far it doesn't boot )) and others may be in the process of doing the same.
There are other projects to get AOSP 2.0.1 and 2.1 on the phone, and those have been working with the 2.6.27 kernel, which is not going to run as well as intended. Of course all it'll take is replacing the kernel, hopefully, and I'm sure someone will make a breakthrough in porting the kernel soon

[Q] Gingerbread + sense

Edit:
Hi, I have a question. Since a couple of weeks I use MDJ GINGERBREAD ROM. I prefer a "Sense" ROM but I couldn't find one smooth as a native one (more or less).
The point is, is it expected a smoother sense ROM under Gingerbred, or it will not be a significant improvement?
In addition I suppose the base for a sense gingebread rom would be thunderbol
What I've heard, is that Sense on gingerbread roms isn't possible yet as HTC didn't release any gingerbread compatible sense yet.. so I guess it won't be possible untill a phone comes out with native gingerbread + sense..

There's not even an offical Sense that runs on Android 2.3.1
Thunderbolt runs on Android 2.2
Do a little bit of reasearch before starting a thread about non-sense
Additionally, considering what features you want from sense, you maybe able to get them on your homescreen or wherever with widgets.
The Mods have just tidied up the forums, and still people insist on starting question threads in the development section.
That's why we have a Q&A section.

You can give Fancy Widget Pro a try, it has some beautiful flip clock skins. The free version is limited, so to enjoy the full package you need to buy it.

If you want to get sense earlier on new builds, you need the source code of sense so xda can port it, but too bad it is not possible, even if u got it, it is illegal as sense is actually owned by htc so you should not reverse engineer it...

Someday, more importantly, ppl that want sense, will buy phones that come with sense. Also, someday, people will learn to use the search button, and then also stop posting non-dev threads in the dev section.

Dont be so hard on yourself you are a sense user who cannot read so what ,

You don't even have cm or aosp working properly, a whole team hasn't managed to port sense over to the galaxy s 1. A sense port is in fact possible, but it will take ages and a great team to do the job, which I doubt will spent their time in which they could've made money on something a few users would kind of like. Get a professional team, pay them, and that is when you will see your proper working sense rom.
Don't get me wrong, there are people who would like to try, but they will come out disappointed, for they will have to create the entire processor sources and get them to work on a closed-source rom. Probability of a working sense rom are very low.
Miui on the other hand is a nice alternative, it looks good and is way easier to port.
Something I forgot to tell by the way, if your s2 has a tegra 2 processor and htc ever releases a phone with tegra 2, which is very unlikely, you are in luck. If you have a samsung processor you're out of luck, since htc probably won't ever use processors made by a concurrent.

Best rom in your opinion?

So after surfing the roms for 2 days to see which one suits me better
I came across the rom mexxdroid preghostchilli which is pretty cool its fast has a cool theme and some nice animations it also has this bootanimation thats awesome and it has sound
So i decided to keep it as my default rom until a new version comes out or the honeycomb port. Ecomes stable and fast
Know its your turn to share your thought on which rom you think is the best!

Can people pleeeeaaaaseeee stop making these threads??
You will find someone with each ROM that's happy with it. Everyone has a different feel for what works for them. You don't want to use the ROM that they like, you should use the ROM that you like.
This thread has been created dozens of times with a myriad of answers already.
The above poster is absolutely correct. Each user will have individual tastes and desires out of a rom. I suppose all of this delves back into the ultimate issue of overall user experience. Perhaps why the CM line is so successful is that they unify that experience across a multitude of devices and generally make sure things work.
I'm very happy with Virtuous Sense v2.0.0

I agree with the above quote however to answer your question. The answer is bulletproof miui. Backup your existing rom and use rom manager to download and install.
In my opinion, PyroMod. A2EXT runs smooth on my phone.

Image in the post above is awesome.
Calling one ROM "better" than another is an insult to the devs that work hard to give us these ROMs. Each ROM has its own merits. A better thing to ask would be "What is your favorite ROM?". Even so, there are many threads on this topic.

THANK YOU.
I always thought the Mexdroid/PyroMod p*ssing contest was extremely immature. I like the eye candy behind Mexdroid, but PyroMod has the speed.
I happen to like Virtuous G-Lite the best because it has the best battery life and it is definitely the lightest and fastest-performing ROM that I've tried. That being said it doesn't have a lot of the addition "features" and styles of other more custom ROMs but through the use of GO Launcher and just replacing a lot of the stock Android apps with others it is pretty much infinitely customizable. For instance, pretty much the only stock android app I still use is the phone dialer. I've replaced the messaging app, gallery, camera, launcher, and even browser (XScope is pretty awesome btw, thanks Amazon App of the Day).
That's just my two cents but it really is a personal preference.
The lastest Virtuous Unity beta. Seriously, the next stable version will be amazing...
Sense 3.0 run so smooth on this rom!

ICS Sense (3.6 or 4.0) to release from Virtuous very soon.

Turns out our devices are supported too. No worries on DHD ics update cancelled. Virtous team found a way to make the camera work.

edit: its not Primadonna or Affinity. They are releasing a new rom i think its called Infinity.
Though would I be correct in assuming that even if they do get the camera working fully, that porting such would only work on Sense roms. (i.e.: I don't much care for Sense).
there are already ics roms without sense with working camera so it is a huge step up for desire z.

Well I know that much, cuz I'm using one. I'm talking bout *fully* working camera, all the same bells and whistles as gingerbread and 720p recording. Not talking bout the current state of non-Sense roms.
With that I'm guessing what Virtuous is planning to release camera-wise would be about the same as what some of us are already using.

well, they were talking about a fully working camera so i guess that includes the 720p recording. they said they used the 3.0 kernel source from primo so it will be different from what most of us using.

Hopefully if that's the case, that one can be ported to other (non-Sense) roms.
I know that for some Sense doesn't matter, but I find it as an integral part of owning an HTC device. (The Flip-to-Silence feature got me hooked when I saw the ads ) and each and every time I tried another ROM, I found myself going back to the good ol' Sense. Whatever version it might be (2.1, 3.0, 3.5).
It adds small stuff that some people care about - for example, the clock app has a stopwatch, timer, and other functions right in the app. I know I can download another app to do all that stuff, but hey - it's more integrated, it looks better in my opinion and I like to keep things stock because they are more in tune with the rest of the UI.
I really love the „Holo” theme in ICS, but we have to admit it still lacks in the App department. Yes, you can get apps to get the functions, but they aren't as finished and as polished as Sense apps.
Also, that Car Home app in Sense 4 is S-W-E-E-T!
You see my point. Different people have different needs. I'll stop here, or else this post will get waaay too long.

Yea I can certainly understand the appeal of Sense, as I've tried some of Virtuous's roms, problem is that for me it's much too sluggish most of the time and I would prefer some functionality over some of the aesthetic. (kind of funny when I say it that way, cuz my somewhat minimal ICS rom looks cleaner than the gingerbread stock Sense I had).
In any case, any progress is good progress considering that the alternatives we were waiting for (i.e.: DHD/etc getting stock ICS) isn't going to happen.
In regards to cameras. Right now on the rom I'm on right now, I can take 5MP pictures and record videos at 720x480, granted however the process was much smoother and crisper in gingerbread ( I guess cuz you'd get full hardware control in those cases ). But as long as one can actually take a quick snap or scan a barcode I think that'll make most people happy across the board.
We all love the virtuous team though
