[Q] req: Sense 3 Lockscreen

Hi.
Since there are several Sense 3 ROMs for HD2 out there, it might be possible to
port just the Sense 3.0 Lockscreen to Sense 2.1 ROMs.
I am quite sure, I am not the only one who likes to see this. But since i am not a Dev, I dont know if this is possible.

Hi,
Check here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=928&order=desc
Roms by Krendlerus,Daekin and maybe Sergio.

If you want SD build then check out MccM's Sens 2.1 +3.0. Been working as a daily ROM for me for two days and everything is smooth

Thanks for the link, but I know these ROMS already, but what I want is just
the Lockscreen Widget from Sense 3.0
Is there a way to install it on my momentarely used RafDroid ROM?

Hi,
Yes I realise what you want ,but you will only be able to do this with a GB ROM.
Therefore you need to consider an upgrade.
Why don't you make a CWM backup,put on the new ROM and if you don't like it,restore your original ROM.

new lockscreen in sense 3.0

Hello,
is it possible to install the lockscreen from sense 3.0 with the weather and the shortcut apps on aonther rom? like for example the new gingerbread rom (rooted one)
Thnx

There are a few roms available that are based on sense 2.1 but have sense 3 apps and widgets. Including the lockscreen.
I would imagine that there will be similar roms available that are based on the gingerbread DZ release but with sense 3.0 goodies coming out in the next few weeks. Just give it time.
But it is not possible to just install the lockscreen. Not very easily anyway. I'd imagine it has something to do with frameworks

Yea the fact that you would be pulling the sense lockscreen and trying to apply it to an AOSP base would probably mess things up.

You can install it on the sense 2.1 based roms, like the new desire z release.
Apply the lockscreen and 2 required weather patches from Seo's thread, and then the rotating rosie + menu fix from Siulmagics insertcoin thread.
All works for me.

[Q] [REQUEST] Android 2.3.5 on G2

Hey all,
I've been dying to have a fantastic essentially stock (real) gingerbread ROM for the G2. While the OTA update is pretty good, it still is missing a few key aspects of what gingerbread should be - blinking LED notifications, the CRT screen turning off effect, a bunch of other stuff. I just recently threw android onto my mother's HD2 Leo, and put this ROM on there. Stock, obviously rooted, with a bunch of awesome features that you can see in the link there. It is FANTASTIC. Probably the best ROM I have ever dealt with.
I guess what I am looking for is a Gingerbread AOSP stock that is currently on the Nexus One - (2.3.5 Gingerbread)
I would love to see a rom identical to this on the G2! Does anyone know of a rom available for the G2 like this?
Or, even better, would someone like to help me figure out how to port this ROM to the g2?
Cheers all
- D

You could try CyanogenMod 7.1-RC1, it has all the features you said you wanted. It does use ADW.launcher, but you can install the stock launcher by following the instructions here.

CM is actually pretty good - my issue is that the look, feel, and operation is nothing like stock gingerbread! I really want something like the stock AOSP Gingerbread Nexus One rom.
EDIT - Hey! One hundred posts!

Cm 7.1 isn't 2.3.5. U need to install the latest nightly. Have a new rom to install every morning is not only exciting, u get new features as they are implemented. What are u talking about CM not being like stock ginger? It IS aosp gingerbread. The true android with zero carrier additions or overlays. You must be confused as to what stock ginger is. Also, get rid of adw the second you install ginger. Adw is a piece of garbage that brings CM WAY down. First thing I always do is search gingerbread launcher in the market and install the real stock ginger launcher. Then your experience will be perfect

Ah - I think that adw launcher is what turned me off of it! I'll give it a go there.

Use the stock launcher, and CM7 is exactly what you want.

This. I've been running a stock GB launcher on CM7 for months now. Check the thread in my sig for it.

I used cyanogen's latest nightly (2.3.5) then xboarder56's converter. Works like a charm!

Virtuous sense 2.0 has the extra power menu options. If you want the stock android lockscreen you can delete HTCLockscreen.apk from /system/app. I don't know how you could get the lockscreen from cm7 without using widget locker.
If you want the the extended settings in your notification bar I have created a few flashable.zip to add them. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16495562
Do Androids dream of electric sheep?

ty for your reply..
I made a mistake while typing my post...
Virtuous Sense 2.. hmm for me it didnt have the extra power options in the statusbar.. perhaps I should redownload..
so Im gonna retry that but the Sensation Lockscreen >> on my desire I have a desire Z Sense 2.1 rom with only the lockscreen.apk replaced.. could I use my desire's apk for that? I was actually looking for a full package, or a flashable zip
[edit] ps those extra flashable zips you created.. they are incredible![/edit]
[edit2]ROM: Virtuous 2.0 with the Sense 3.0 lockscreen and in ur sig TYTYTYTYTYTYTYTY
flashing v2+extra power settings+lockscreen.. that is exactly what I wanted
One final question.. which will actually be usefull... I was wondering if its possible to use the Virtuous OC tool thats in the pyramid ROM in virtuous 2.0?
[/edit]

Try my LeeDrOiD ROM, it has extended power menu, and has an addon for sense 3 features (lockscreen etc)!!!!!!!!
Sent from my Desire Z

id go with cm7 but thats just me

If you want the all the funtions for daily then I recommend a sense rom. If you down with tweaking a rom then go with cm7 or miui

[Q] Dezire Z & ROM Manager Question

Hey Everyone,
I have a rooted desire z with an insert coin rom installed.
I want to mess around with ROM Manager. When I go to perform the 1st step, "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery, it asks me to confirm phone model.
Options are HTC Desire HD and HTC G2. I would assume I want to use the G2 as this is pretty much the G2.
My phone was originally Bell Mobility.
Any insight would be great.
Thanks.

Yip choose the HTC G2

thanks!...now to decide what rom to try.

Choose whatever you want. But remember there are more options than show up in ROM manager. You can download from the dev section too
Also, ALWAYS back up in recovery before flashing. Save yourself a lot of headaches.

Dont limited yourself to what can be downloaded through rom manager, head to the developers section here and read up on the different flavoured roms

And recoveries lol, 4EXT is actually pretty damn cool, and has more features than cwmr, and it's from the same creator I believe

This is only my 3rd adnroid, 2nd i've rooted.
The 1st was a Rogers Dream so I was limited to CM6 really.
One thing I wonder on the desire z is do I need to flash a different kernel? I would guess no since the insert coin rom I am running is Gingerbread 2.3.4 the kernel would be fine for something like CM7.1.
Anyone running CM 7.1 on a desire z? how is it?

When you install a new ROM (like cm7) it installs a new kernel with it. FWIW the CM7 stock kernel is amazing.
There are thousands of people running CM7 on the Vision. Head over to the 7.1 thread and see what people are saying. Its worth a try. I like it.

If I go with CM7.1, any way to get a good looking sense clock/weather widget? The ones on market suck to put it simply....
The onlything I like about sense really is that widget...

Different developer, but 4EXT is based on CWM.

I guess I could just use Launcher Pro instead of ADW and then buy the Sense Widget for $1.50...

P.S
+1 to 4EXT recovery,that is the absolute best recovery for your phone IMHO

Well, tried CM 7.1...compared to InsertCoin I was running it is pretty weak...the insert coin is far better as far as stability...as soon as I opened market it crashed, settings, crash....etc...
Nandroid restore to insertcoin and smiles again!

hmmm.... so? what ROM should i download? CM7? or InsertCoin? what do you recommend guys?

Why don't you just try yourself? Would take much less time than reading about personal preferences of people
I never tried CM and probably won't in a visible timeframe, because I chose HTC over Samsung because of Sense (and the fact that my operator had the DZ dirt cheap compared to others ).

I prefer InserCoin. More complete for the device. CM7.1 is okay...but like the last person said, sense is why some ppl like htc...buy htc...etc.
It is all personal preference, but from what I have found so far...sense roms, insertcoin included are much nicer on the device...
