Alright, while I was sitting in class today, I was thinking. Everyone has their own ideas on what they want in a ROM, but since there are too many people to make unique ROMs for, and not all of us know how to create a ROM. I thought, would a program that allows you to customize a ROM just for your phone be possible? Pick your phone, base ROM, (like a ROM made by a developer for your phone already), any tweaks, apps, settings, etc, that would allow you to create your perfect ROM? Just a thought.
EDIT: Or is there in fact something like this out there?

I was looking under non-HTC supported devices. The Milestone, which is what I have, is unconfirmed. Does that mean it may be not such a good idea to use that?
I doubt it will work. My apologies.

It said something about deleting the boot.img file. But thanks anyway. I'll give it a whirl.
Also! Everytime I restart my phone, it deletes Facebook synced data, like my contacts, so I have to go to Facebook, and switch Do Not Sync, in the Facebook settings, to Sync All, which is, So. Annoying. Any fix to this? Many ROMs do this, but I have used a few that don't.
Never used Facebook, its the root of all evil!
Lots of options in market. Just search "Facebook sync".
One example :

every time i do a hardreset i have to renter my username and password for Social Networks(youtube, facebook), skymarket, myphone i have looked but i cant find where its stored. Does anyone know the answer to this problem. Thanks
I would be worried less about that and more about having to reload all of your apps, your favorite websites and general settings that you make to make the phone "yours"

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?

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.

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.

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.

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?
Could any of you new T-mobile owners let us know if the twitter app still has the bug where it never deletes tweets.....rendering it fairly useless.
yes im interested in that too, i would like to see if there is an updated version.. its badly needed.
There is however a fix to manually delete the tweets from time to time.. i do this about 1s a month and it stays fast (dont follow a lot of ppl tho)
Yes i know about the manual delete but its a pain, im noticing slow down after only 4 or 5 days. maybe I should turn auto update off. I have actually ditched it for the time being and am using motweet which is actually very good even the free one (with adverts) however this renders another sense tab useless. Has anyone developed a cab that will allow us to remap the sence tab to a different program?
Same here, made a topic about this a few weeks ago.
Mind telling me the manual method of deleting tweets? I can't seem to find it on this forum... Also, will tweets still remain on the server or would this delete them permanently?

copy from someone else
1. turn off htc sense (I forget how. it's in settings)
2. sync your phone.
3. explore and go through these folders: temp >> twiteng.
4. delete the files in the twiteng folder.

good luck, this will not delete anything from the twitter server, only ur local tweet cache
I wonder how hard it would be for a dev to write a cab that automated the process?

and maybe let that script automatic run according to a schedule.. that'd be nice.
however i dont think someone will make the time to make this since there are few people having this issue..
Thanks jamieeeee, now I see why the workaround is such a pain. It's still doable once in a while though.
yes a shedule would be good, Although i would be happy for it to run every couple of days deleteing everything over 24 hours old.
Have started a thread in the apps forum to see if there is any interest. I cant really understand why there isnt more people having this issue, I can only presume not many win mobile users are twitter users. For me Intergrated twitter was one of the reasons i bought the HD2, was also a little dissapointed that it didnt integrate tweeters with contacts like it does with facebook. to me twitter is a much more obvious social networking platform for mobile than facebook is.
Well that attracted bugger all responces, looks like i will be sticking to motweet.

yeah you can send tweets without any problem (at least i can)
the mistake HTC made is not having a maximum number of tweets in the tab.. that means it keeps downloading new one's and never throws out any old one's.. you can do the math.. it gets slower and slower till its unusable
Hopefully this is a short lived thread. I couldn't find anywhere else more appropriate to post this, if there is somewhere please enlighten me. I'd appreciate it if someone would post a download of the 'notes' widget, since I can't download it from the usual method! I looked all over the inter-web and no one has ever posted a link to it (unsurprisingly) so this is a joyous occasion for the few of us that can't download it from htc directly. Gracias!
hopefully someone will post it before the thread is deleted.

If you go Add > Widget, then select the option shown at the top of lot of the list of Widgets (Get more HTC Widgets). Download and install the one titled 'Notes'. Then simply add the widget to the relevant screen.
Also, 3 banana (found via Marketplace) have a good note taking app that has a nice widget, and it has a lot more features not available in the HTC notes widget.

Since it probably doesn't have an install script, I reckon you'd have to bake it into the rom and reflash..
or perhaps try pasting it into the system/app folder and rebot.
Sorry to hear that. It wasn't in /system/app though... I found it in /data/app/ IIRC (hope this helps)

The apk name is listed along with the packagename in the list. If you are unsure what things are safe to block/disable. There are plenty of people on the forum that would be willing to help you.
I did not see the package name so I will have run it again and read more carefully or try to change the size of that field.

Here's one thing to think about also, by accident I blocked the Google stock email , not the Gmail. I went back to unblock and I had to re-enter all my emails back again. So what I'm saying after a block and then an un-block it wipes the app. Did you expect that to happen or should I expect that to happen for most apps be turned back on?
Thanks
