Froyo w/ Sense

We already have Froyo (CM6) but not with Sense.
Desire is getting 2.2 Froyo with Sense Update this weekend.
Also Evo is getting it Ago. 3 but that one cannot be ported or I'm wrong?
It can be ported to Hero?

Use paid LauncherPro and you'll get all your "Sense" widgets

Which Sense apps? There are great replacements for almost if not all of them.

I loved Sense and would not flash an AOSP Rom, but once they released the first build of CM6 back in June I flashed it and kept it on my phone for 3 weeks. I installed launcher pro and beautiful widgets along with some other apps that I thought were decent like extended control widget. I got sense deprived and flashed a sense rom back on, but found myself reinstalling launcher pro because I like dock a lot more than Sense. And people can say that they can make a ROM with Sense just as fast as froyo are lying. I tried everything I could to get it as fast as froyo but was unable too. I have DC running right now, because I am working on porting something over from the EVO. Once everything is working on CM6 I will flash again.
The only thing that may be good is to get the HTC framework working with froyo and then you can still use the HTC apps, but other than that you can find alternative widgets that are close to or better than the HTC widgets

IMHO, the only one Not replaceable is the VVM. (and no, GoogVoice is not a great alternative/just as good, frankly. the number forwarding shell game, redundant emails, txtx, etc, annoying. and simply not as responsive or "easy to use") I hate to say it, but it was this feature that sold me on this phone. of course since I have found other reasons to love it.
everything else can be replaced easy. (in fact, msg me w/ your email, I can send a pack...)
personally not using Froyo just yet, looking forward to a Sense port as well... but I can wait.

Sorry guys but the topic here is not if you like Sense or Not...
The Topic is....
If it is possible to Port HTC Desire Froyo with Sense that is going to be released this weekend????
It can be ported to Hero?

golly, sorry to have totally sent your thread into offtopic there, buddy, but to answer your question I think:
well, it really depends on what phone its being released for... as far as I know, whats coming out is for the EVO, Desire, etc... and as darchstar said in this thread:
darchstar said:
u guys r such n00bz . we can't port an htc evo rom cuz its optimized to run on snapdragon armv7 arch. it will never boot with those libs. our hopes for a 2.2 sense rom would be a froyo legend rom, or a froyo espresso rom, as those both have libs optimized for armv61/armv5te

and the desire also runs the snapdragon, so... no.

Ok Thanks!

No porting the desire is not worth while. The legend will be the one I and several other dev's are waiting for this will get ported to the hero.

[Q] Android Froyo with HTC Sense

Hello,
HTC announced that they'll release froyo with HTC sense for the HTC Wildfire. When and IF they do that.. could we port it to Hero? It's basically the same device. Only thing that changes is the screen.

And the resolution is a very difficult thing to fix. You have to edit every graphic to fit and tonnes of other things. Just wait and one of the dev's will find the best rom for it (probably before it is even announced).

I think the dev's are waiting for a Legend 2.2 ROM, since it has the same resolution as the Hero. The processor is slightly different though I believe.

HTC's official legend froyo images etc. + HTC's official wildfire Procesor drivers etc. for Froyo = almost perfect Hero ROM
i hope i got my maths right there

Heh. I asked HTC why they are developing a rom for Wildfire and not for Hero. Still waiting for their answer.

Isn't the wildfire still an ARMv7 chip ie. Cortex?
Or am I just getting confused with things?

wildfire uses the same chip as the hero.
it has more ram though.

Is there any chance we could port the new 2.1 Sense UI that Wildfire uses to Hero? The new HTC Dialer and stuff.

I don't think so since the Wildfire has a lower resolution so it would be difficult. Maybe it will be included in the Legend's Froyo ROM?

Maybe it will. Can't wait for a Sense Froyo Rom.

Agreed. I'd love Froyo with Sense on my Hero

whats stopping the devs from doing it cant you just change the fw images add com.htc.recources.apk and rosie.apk and all other htc things and libs etc???? ima try tht actualy

Sense with froyo for Hero
Hi all,
But i have one idea : Is it possible to take sense from the official HTC 2.1 Rom and to put it on Froydvillain ?
What do you think about that ?

[Q] Desire Camera App for Oxygen RC7

I'm looking the htc camera app for oxygen/gingerbread. But the 2.2 port for CM,EM don't work.

You wont see it until a 2.3 sense rom is available. It'd be way too much work.

sorry for noob Q but i doesnt find answer on google. thx

Question is if there is any official 2.3 at all...the mobile isn't the newest one ^^

they have pretty much said there will be an official gingerbread for desire... HOWEVER, our phone unfortunately wont be on the top of the priority list, as you said, because its relatively "older" incomparison.. plus.. add to the delay the fact it has to filter down to our providers so they can make THIER changes, and then it will be officially released..
To OP: So in short... not anytime soon.. Try out CM7 Nightlies.. they are damn stable and you can really replicate most of sense with a custom launcher (LPPro has great replacements to most of the sense widgets)

[Q] HTC Wildfire S

I have just seen some wildfire s movies and the point is:
it's runneing gingerbread and it has a flip clock.
My question is: If the htc wildfire s has nearly the same things as the normal wildfire.
Can we (if the wildfire s is released) port gingerbread from the s version to ours.
Or will there be an update with the new sense and gingerbread.
Please could someone that know something about it say something to me, please.
And my second question is: Can someone already put the new sense in a rom.
I hope someone really know something about it.

It is not nearly the same. It is totally different. And, to get the new Sense, the code has to be released by HTC. Till that, there wont be a GB Sense Enabled ROM for the Wildfire.
Also, I am pretty sure with the release of the S, HTC will not conveniently forget the original Wildfire and probably not release any updates for it. Its basically an EOL Product now. Its the way the industry works.

After some monthes on the market every mobile phone is EOL. You are right!

If you really want gingerbread on wildfire, you can try Cyanogen 7. There is no htc sense with cyanogen though.

Just for the new sense

I know but I want the new sense xD

Its more like the aria or gratia (what is the point of that - considering the wildfire s is better) or legend or salsa than the wildfire (they are all the same phone in a different box with a different rom)

I'm using cm 7 right now.
It is very nice, but I've send a mail to HTC.
Hope they will answer.
I really like gingerbread, but I just want the new sense ( without buying a newer phone ).
So if I got mail about it.
Will you see it on this topic

Or will there be an update with the new sense and gingerbread. - Not really with a spray of impossible
Please could someone that know something about it say something to me, please.
And my second question is: Can someone already put the new sense in a rom.

Hello people,
I'm using cm 7 right now.
This is a question to alex, I think that you know more about it.
So is it possible to port htc sense to cm7.
And so yes:How can I do it on my own.
So please answer.
edit ment normal sense.

It is possible to get the Gingerbread update but no way it would get the new Sense.

No it's not possible to port anything HTC to an AOSP ROM, there is a theme though which makes it look like HTC Sense!

why not

Why not.
I mean can not one app ported to a aosp rom?

Simply because HTC apps require a framework that AOSP ROMS do not have as it is power consuming and is slow.

Sadly the HTC framework is not compatible with AOSP ROMS at the ROMS have to support it. Your english is fine, don't worry!

As djdevine2 stated above, porting Sense would be very hard or even impossible. Sense is like a bug that crawls really deep inside the Android OS. Eliminating is it hard, I imagine introducing it would be also very, very hard.
And not to mention the possible Legal issues that could appear

maybe there is hope
It has also been rumored that the HTC Wildfire will receive the recently released 2.3 Gingerbread update.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Wildfire
This is just a rumor, but there is still hope.

Doesn't look so. If you look at the citation on that particular line, and, read that thread in another forum, there is nothing there to state that HTC has said anything about 2.3 on Wildfire. It is simply a speculative thread, and, points to CM7 for 2.3 on Wildfire.
"You can have your doubts about when your phone maker will finally get around to delivering an Android 2.3 update (March if you're with HTC, June if Samsung, 2017 if you're unfortunate enough to own a Sony Ericsson), but the smartphone dev community doesn't work that slowly. The guys who build custom ROMs just for the sheer pride of it have already begun work on delivering Gingerbread to owners of HTC's EVO 4G, Droid Eris, and Wildfire."

i hope that the developers will start this project...i miss the old look.but dont want to get back to 1.6

I agree with you... We are waiting 2.3.3 with sense for Tattoo/click...

Haha. 2.3.3+fully working+Sense 2.1=best rom for htc tattoo.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but a Sense 2.1 port will not come to the Tattoo, unless HTC releases a Sense 2.1 device with a QVGA display, which is not very likely..

i have no clue it thats possible,but that would be great!

Dam - just popped back over to XDA to see what was available for a Tattoo someone has asked me to upgrade for them....
So if I'm reading this correctly theres is no ROMS past 1.6 for the Tattoo with the Sense interface?

Guys i think we have to buy a new phone probbly , i bought this one last summer thinking that HTC will realeas the 2.2 for Tattoo ( as they said) but bummer i bought and i had to root and put 2.3 , but i don't think that any furhter SENSE u.i will come for Tattoo.
If i buy another phone it will likely be HTC again.

I support you,but 2.2 with sense on TATTOO is slow yet,how about 2.3?

Just wanna say that there is Android 2.2 ROM for HTC Tattoo with Sense UI. There are some things left to do, like FM Radio and Videorecorder, but this ROM looks very promising. I would be satisfied with fully working 2.2 ROM with Sense UI, doesn't need to be 2.3.
