HTC sense ROM?

Hey just wondering, when htc release jelly bean for the one x, would it be possible to make a sense 4 custom ROM for the nexus 7 somehow, seeing as they have similar processors, ram and their screen resolution s are not that different?

You want a manufacturer skin over stock?!

Every android device I have ever owned, someone has always wanted a sense ROM. I just don't get it. Sense is a battery and performance nightmare from my experience. Of the two HTC devices that I have owned, the FIRST thing I did on each is install a non-sense ROM.

I hate Sense with a passion, I don't know why you would want it... everyone has different tastes, I guess

I love sense, but it probably isn't possible.

Sense on the Nexus 7 would be awesome. I know it can be a battery/cpu hog or whatever but seriously, I'm pretty sure the Nexus 7 could hardware could handle it. Sense has so many nice features that I miss. The UI is gorgeous (subjective, I know), the included widgets are fantastic especially the clock, and small things like the fact that navigation is linked to calendar events so you can just bring up an event in your calendar and then click on the location and it will take you there.
Edit: nearly forgot to mention the great music player, and the latest keyboard is main thing I miss.
Have no idea if it would be possible, but I would LOVE to see a sense rom for the nexus. What about a ported Flyer rom? I have no idea about development though so forgive me if it would be impossible.

I like sense
But the screen is a different resolution which will make it harder
Also things will look really really big
Best shot at a port will be if HTC release a tablet with sense and the same resolution as ours, along with a tegra
Also the flyer is a lower resolution

The resolution is basically the name as the one x is it not? Also, the hardware is pretty similar, tegra included. I don't think it would be that difficult to get a one x ROM going on the nexus? I wish I could do it myself!

Well sense 4 looks and feels great in my opinion. ( yeah it would be worse probably ) but it is pretty cool!

You can download Sense Themes and launchers and pretty much be set. Their 3rd party apps are buggy at best. My coworker constantly has problems with his HTC dialer and email apps.
Sense pretty much is just a launcher with special Widgets... and a couple of custom apps.

What launcher does the sense 4 effect?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

None can match Sense 3.x or 4 in overall cohesiveness and polish. All the clock widgets that try and copy the sense clock are subpar imitations. You can try to give your phone the sense look but it will never be as nice. I challenge anyone to screenshot their phone/tablet to prove that it can be done!

Hi,
Sorry to revive this post, but I just got my Nexus 7 and the first thing I miss so much is the Sense UI of my HTC One X ...
I buy HTC since the TyTN, and had the Touch HD, HD2, Sensation XE and now One X. Sense came with the Touch HD, and one main reason I keep buying HTC is the Sense layer (over their phone design that I still find better than other brands).
I never had issues so far with Sense since 4 years of using Sense on all these phones ...
I wonder if the Sense launcher can be output of an HTC Rom as an APK to install on other devices ?

While it may be possible to get sense working on a Nexus 7, it would be a ridiculous amount of work. I understand the request though as I used to love Sense. These days it's more like an ex girlfriend. I have fond memories of it but would never consider going back to it.

LOL, I love your comparison with "ex-girlfriend"
Anyway, I'll try to live differently with the Nexus 7 ... Hope I'll find a nive widget for time/date/weather ...

Best Nexus 7 ROM With Tablet UI

What's the best ROM currently with tablet UI? I know it's a matter of opinion, but I still want to hear it.
Google Wallet should also work as well.

So far paranoid android is smooth for me...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

I'm curious about this as well. Been looking at Paranoid Android mainly.

Paranoid is the best way to go.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

I am very happy about Paranoid

Definitely paranoid because some apps look really wonky with tablet ui at 720px, but with PA you can customize the layout of each individual app which is awesome.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

Paranoid is amazing though I wish i could use other ROMs with paranoid features
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Paranoid working fine for me. Like the per-app customization.

Stock works fine too.
IMUI has a really different and beautiful UI then all other ROM
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

MIUI is terrible for the Nexus 7. I love it on my S2 but too many phone features are still present in the Nexus 7 MIUI build. It feels half-done.
Paranoid Android is very slow but the UI customization is good.
I'm tempted to go back to stock though because it has been the smoothest and best battery performance rom for me.

PA 2.1 is good for me

Team Bamf
I'm using team bamf paradigm v2.2. Seems to work really well get really nice battery life out of it.

TeamEOS
The TeamEOS ROM works quite good for me.. I would recommend it to everyone! :laugh:

The AOKP nightly ROM is pretty awesome.

Just ordered my Nexus 7 today, this have been sort of helpful...lol.

EOS has a dead simple Tablet UI option. Just check and forget. It uses the same DPI as stock so you dont have any comparability issues like other methods. I haven't had a single problem running in tablet mode regarding apps and games. PA gets good rep too but EOS simply just works so good I can't come off of it.
Battery is also simply amazing. I unplug at 8 when I go to work and will still be at 100% when I get home if I dont use it. I unplugged the N7 like 20 minutes ago and on XDA and still at 100%. Absolutely no complaints.

Galaxy Note 2 Multitasking suit for Nexus 4?

Is't possible to grasp some of Galaxy Note 2 multitasking suit to Nexus 4? If I'm not wrong Nexus 4 is like a blank canvas that can be painted easily. So it means it can handle any software unless some hardware incompatibility? ,. Just to be honest I'm happy& thankful to see many devs coming up with new ROMS, but but I don't really see much of any difference from the stock ROM. Gaining some of the unique features from Glaxy Note 2 or LG Optimus G & etc,. would be really cool. And I think that's the point of having a Nexus 4 right? lol

Porting over functions and apps from other devices is not as easy as you make it out, it takes a lot of work. In a lot of instances it isn't worth the effort you have to put in especially when it comes to functions found only in Samsung's Touchwiz or HTC's Sense.

Hmmm....maybe some Genius Dev can change the restriction scripts or exploit it so it will run on stock ROM or make a modd so those suits will think its the native rom. lol.

Try to port the app yourself, then you'll see how involved things like this can get. You have the 'want", just set in motion the 'drive/motivation' by either learning how-to's or setting up a bounty for said request.

[Q] Any ideas? or suggestion?

Alright so obviously I have the nexus 4. This really isnt a big problem for you guys I just need quick help.
You see I'm getting really bored. Maybe because its a developer phone and I'm obviously not a developer. I keep trying to sell it and since my birthday was today I almost got the galaxy s4.
I just keep thinking if there was something I could. do to this phone to make it as cool as the galaxy s4 I'm just not impressed.
I have rooted
I have over clocked.
Installed custom ROM
I just need Idk features that make the phone cool. Or something that'll keep me busy so I'm not bored.
Thanks

read around, maybe something will catch your interest. personally, i dont need the extra features. i look for something lean, and optimized, which usually means fast. the simplicity of android makes me happy, i dont need anything else.

rasbean jelly rom with the trinity kernel. but thats what i enjoy

Its basic human nature that they get bored after using the same thing again & again for many days. After a month of usage, I was bored with my S2, then I started trying out new ROMs, I used to change ROMs once every 2 weeks.
I got my Nexus 4, 3days ago.........
Try out different ROMs, try different software tweaks, or different apps from Play Store atleast. Otherwise just find something/someone other than your Nexus 4/10 to remove your boredom......

okay see because I over clocked and rooted my Nexus 4 and 10. Running pa with stock kernel. I literally took of Faux kernel does now because it was overheating my phone. I still have my Nexus 10 overclock and rooted. With same kernel. I just need something else to do with my phone. When I usually go hiking or trailing I do photosphere's and then add it to Google Plus but other than that there's nothing else to do

What you need is tasker!
That should be a really interesting project for you
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsIm5ldC5kaW5nbGlzY2guYW5kcm9pZC50YXNrZXJtIl0.
You can do anything with this app

What you need is to change the way you interact with your device. Remove the nav bar and use pie (learn to use gestures) , nova launcher (and many roms out there) have the option to remove the notificatiom bar. Use dashclock with the extentions as a homescreen widget. Use halo for notifications. Use icon packs to change the way your UI feels, change the wallpaper more often. If you're on google+ take a look at the communities, people are doing some crazy stuff customizations, try to replicate those themes.
Buying the s4 won't solve your problems.

Yeah the only thing Im not doing from what you said is using halo and pie. I did that with my nexus 10. The reason why I didn't on my nexus 4 is because I put tablet ui and made it transparent and made the app drawer transparent too

Cyanogenmod 4.3

Hi all,
Forgive this thread and of course move/delete if needed, but I just wanted to voice my excitement for the day CM comes the the device. I will be receiving N9005 October 9th on Three coming from the Note 2 and simply cannot wait to not only start the customisation of Samsung TW but furthermore the moment beginning flashing the custom minimalistic roms that CM and AOSP bases will be offering us.
I'm curious to see how the performance and battery life etc will be, cliché questions I realise, and how such a lightweight system on such a powerful device will be a pleasure to operate. Also I wonder of the amount of available ram could ever be changed? So I see currently that there's around 2.3gb or so system reserved (don't quote me) available and so could more of this be released when on a CM rom?
Either way, just thought I'd create a place where we can all build up some discussion for when we first begin to get a glimpse of hopefully what's to come...

Hi there and good to hear you are exited about the Note 3, as for customisation i think AOSP roms will be the best way to customise, since one developer is allready trying to make the exposed framework to work its getting blocked by the Samsung KNOX security.
I'm getting the feeling stock rom customisation is getting tough because of this KNOX stuff.

As root will break KNOX. Exposed farmwork or asop deal will be the same
