Hi,
Is there any possibility that you smart guys could extract only the exchange capabilities from HTC's SENSE?
edit sorry guys
1. Wrong section
2. Search Button
3. ... all I am going to say.
Thanks,
There you go. Give it a try.
More politely put no it is not possible but you can use senseui with the normal launcher and have your exchange support.
Or just use touchdown OR motogal and motocal
Widgets
My problem is that I LOVE the widgets. the Calender Widget to be specific. I wish the Android calender would merge Exchange and Google calender information and present it out on a unified calender like HTC does. And I used Modaco's kitchen to dump the Sense UI but that also leaves me without the calendar and mail widgets :-(
Not working
Talderon - I have searched but didn't get a satisfying answer.
InGeNeTiCs - Tried it (adb push), but I don't see any new app..
genibus - If I get you correct, you are saying that the only possible way is using HTC Desire's ROM?

calwidget merges google and motorola, works like a charm.

I need to overlay google cal and exchange cal. I am using calwidget which is nice, but I need a full calendar app. (i.e - pick a specific date, and see whats happening in both calendars)
I need to accept calendar invitations from exchange (Push) - motocal can do it only if I happen to navigate to the date and see the event invitation there. there's no way to know you received an invitation, and there's no centralized place where I can see my invitations.
I need to be able to search GAL from the email application. I have motogal, but it's not what i'm looking for. let's say someone sent me an email, I want to forward it to someone in the company. I dont want to go to motogal, search, copy, paste... I want to have the search in the TO field of the wmail app.
I need to search email and calendar..
These are the main problems...
Thanks for the help
Why do people seem to believe that everything can be ported, or "extracted" from everything. Not everything (as sad as this may be to some) can be ported to every single 'thing'. People seem to constantly ask for things from HTC Sense here, but they do not seem to comprehend that HTC Sense requires a specific framework, without Rosie we cannot simply port every minor detail over to the standard Vanilla Android. (From MY understanding, I could be wrong, but this is what I was taught).
Get the Desire ROM, or a imitation, and stop requesting..
This was not directed to the thread creator specifically, though it was to people who are requesting widgets. I really wish people could become a little more educated.. unless me myself is wrong.

You can do all this already, or this is what you want to do?
Let me rephrase my earlier question, I think you misunderstood: What can you currently do that you will LOSE by going to the Desire ROM?

Because that's the idea behind the android OS? That everything is modular. Except that in this case HTC sense is a module for home, and not individual modules.
To the OP: If you want corporate usage, I believe it was pulled from the droid rom successfully. I've seen a few posts allude to it around here somewhere.

Well yes, I know that's the idea behind the Android OS, but not everything can be backported, extracted or whatever as easily as people seem to wish or think..

OHHH sorry I thought you asked a different question.
Actually, I wouldn't mind having a complete sense experience - That would be even better.
But I'm a little afraid to flash the entire Desire ROM because it's still experimental.. isn't it?
I'm currently with Cyanogen so it's not the idea of flashing that bothers me, it's just that specific ROM.
Thanks for your reply.

I'm guessing you are not familiar with the Nand Backup/Restore feature then?

OK.. Ill give it a shot..
I was just trying to find out if there's a possibility that I wouldn't have to go through this, because all I need is proper exchange support.
Thanks.
Curiosity.
Without a Rooted Incredible I assume I can't install the sensemail.apk on the incredible?
I tried and the app won't install although both are HTC Sense UI's?
Verizon seemed to have downgraded the HTC Mail to only one screen option. I wanted the screen widget that showed the messages in a list not by individual pages where you flip through them to read the headers(single page).
I also tried the extracted widget from the HTC Desire ROM and it didn't want to install. said it was an application error.
Any hints? or just wait for the root?
Hi,
My job has an exchange policy which has crippled my phone - in the sense that I hate having to type in a password every time I want to use it.
Is there any way to circumvent this? I was thinking maybe setting up a small Exchange server with a policy that says PIN codes are *not* acceptable If not, are there other programs out there that can replace the lock?
Cheers!
I believe you can use another exchange email app that doesn't require this.
Or maybe a custom rom can do the trick? I'm looking for this my self at the moment, but I haven't rooted & flashed my phone yet (it seems a bit more tricky then on the Nexus One)

Thanks, but I was hoping to do it without rooting. Last time I had a hell of a time installing the official patch from Samsung...
Using the built in email client I can no longer send email's. I get the on-screen message of "Saved as Draft". I haven't changed the programs configuration to cause it. I did install Droidwall, but I disabled it as a test, no effect. I did also as a test change the outgoing server to a different one for my ISP. both the original and new servers SEEM to test right, i get no error when the email client tests the settings, but I don't get a Success either. I am also on my home network so no issues there with it having to handle extra security by coming through another ISP.
Anyone seen this on the email client in HC3.2?
@Nova5 - My few thoughts on this problem. What is your setup? i.e. (1) Are you rooted? (I'm guessing you are) (2) Are you using a custom ROM, if so which one? (3) Are you using a custom Kernel, if so which one? (4) Have you installed any updates which might be causing the problem?.
I use stock "Email", personal preference, because I like it better than "Gmail" and don't experience any problems. I'm on "KEKINASH's near-stock 3.2HC ROM with stock Kernel". This reply may not directly help solve your problem but may give you or others food for thought.
it was the rooted stock iconia 3.2 rom found on this forum.

Very little if any difference in the rom I'm using. In which case it's cold comfort and not very helpful for me to say that Email runs with no problem on my setup, both receiving and sending. At a loss to suggest why it doesn't run for you. Perhaps some other poster might have an inspiration.

Nova5, since this worked previously and it looks like you installed a firewall (DroidWall), it does sound like the likely culprit. Have you tried uninstalling it instead of disabling it? I'm not familiar with that software but disabling it may not necessary be stopping it from blocking access.
Keep us posted.
Modified APKs existed for AOSP ICS ROMs on the Epic 4G Touch and some devs (like Calk) had Exchange Policy enforcement removed in their ROM.
Is there any way to do this on the GS3? I have two work emails that I would really like to not have a pin number for, rather a pattern.
Thanks.

Follow the steps here. I did this and it works like a charm. Though I'm not too fond of the Email APK in touchwiz; it gets the job done.
You must have ADB Access
You Must Have Java SE JRE v6 or7
You Must Be Rooted

That was pretty painless, thank you!
As an "exercise in personal growth" (and also to let the rooting, rom, Knox, stuff shake out) I'm giving it a go staying stock.
It actually isn't half bad and I'm down to two last minor problems that I can't figure out and I'm hoping someone has some wisdom to impart.
1. How do I disable automatic contact linking? My business partner and my company got linked because they shared both an address and a phone number. I fixed that but I don't know what else has been auto-linked. (Even just within Google contacts... I'm not talking about Facebook/Google linking but I wouldn't want that either)
2. How can I get the weather to show on the Lock Screen? CyanogenMod it was "just there" (at least I don't remember having to add it)
Thanks in advance if anyone can help!
P.S. As I mentioned I'm trying to stay stock if possible. I realize I could probably do at least the weather with rooting and installing something and I am open to rooting if absolutely necessary.

Might not work if you have security on your lock screen though. Samsung in their infinite wisdom really messed up the vanilla Android lock screen.

Yeah... I can't get it to work... At least not in any "obvious" way. (Long clicking, etc).
And I have to agree with you... I'm assuming that an S-View case isn't going to work with any security enabled either?
If so, it really sucks that "premier headlining" features don't work with security enabled.
