This boot.img should work. I haven't played with it too much, but dalvik starts to process and then dies.

I'm uploading my progress now. Working symlinking, ext-partition with ~200 MB+ required.
Doesn't boot up due to surfaceflinger issues.
I will send cyanogen a log about it.

This is so amazing. Thanks to all the dev's trying to get this to work. Did any of you figure out why the normal apps are 2-3 times larger in the HD than desire ROM?

Here you go.

See my last post to see what's broken.

I believe the reason of the apps being so much bigger is because of all the png's being higher quality
If I'm wrong then I can't see why it should be called HTC Desire "HD" cause screen resolutionis the same as nexus?!

The apps are completely different, based off new sense all hdpi none are mdpi all are on 240dpi
anything less will look weird.

Yeah I see

For anyone interested in what some of the new apps might look like, go to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8220296#post8220296
Extracted images and such.

If that's the case, will reducing the PNG size makes any differences. Maybe we will get slightly less noticable quality issue but on the plus side.. huge gains in space.

I've tried that, but the PNG's are compressed as low as possible by HTC, any less and you would get a JPG = no transparency.
I know nobody including you would like transparent images to have a white background.

What about reducing the size of the image? some will scale i believe?

Why aren't we trying to port sense from desire z? It should be the same sense system just fitted to 3.4" screens and probably not as good quality png as in the hd?

@ralle.gade Cause we haven't any dump file from Desire Z right now, i think.

[Q] Sense 3.0 for Galaxy S II

Hello there dear Andoid wizards.
Simple question. Is it possible/will it be possible/do you think it will be possible to port HTC Sense 3.0 to the Samsung Galaxy S II?
I'd like to know too. Not gonna lie, the new Sense looks amazing. They ported some form of Sense to the original SGS so I assume it will be possible. Don't think everything worked on those builds though.
No. I wish.
Due to CPU/GPU architecture and the closed source, 90% sure it won't be ported
Plus the problem of it been designed for a higher res screen will cause issues porting it
Higher res is not a problem. Running sense 3.0 on my desire hd. Thx to capy and his team

I dont se why sense 3.0 shod be problem to port to SGS2 . I'm running sense 3.0. It was made possible by the amazing work of Flemmard and Diamondback, who reverse engiineered the m10 format and built an encoder/decoder. The two of them also made the specific adjustments necessary to this particular ROM's applications. It was also a collaborative effort across the DHD and G2/DZ communities. I've been using sense 3.0 for almost a week now and it works like charm.

is it really because of the CPU/GPU? I really would like an Galaxy S II but I hate TouchWize and I love Sense (but HTC Sensation is inferior except for qHD resolution, build quality and of course Sense 3.0)
never say never, someone just needs to want it enough as is always the case, if a game can run on different CPU's then I am sure a UI can...
I think its only a matter of time as there is version of 2.3.3 with 3.0 look available for Desire HD and Z. To be honest I mostly want the widgets
Sense to be open-sourced
Hi Guys,
as you might already have caught, HTC is on a customer satisfaction rampage and announced to opensource Sense along with some other customizations yesterday!
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...h-scribe-tablet-pen-and-stereoscopic-3d-apis/
I think engadget did a scoop on it also.
With that Sense on SGS2 shouldnt be a problem right?
sense 3.0 can run on a lot of phones
sense 3.0 is a launcher with a bit of extra apps and framework,
now lets say we take all the apk's for the framework , apps and launcher and we install them on a samsung galaxy s2 then we have a probably pretty crappy version of sense 3.0 installed,
now we go to
lmgtfy.com/?q=htc+sense+3.0+rom+for+galaxy+s2
and we will find a good rom
reported working phones:
*galaxy s2
*galaxy
*desire A8181
*desire HD
*desire Z
*nexus one
thats the info i know

It just looks much better than vanilla Android. It is all about how it looks.
The unlocking screen, the clock widget with weather, weather widget, the way onscreen keyboard looks...
Do the Sense 3 phones (like HTC Sensation) support all the hardware acceleration and media codecs that we have in the TW framework?
I also like Sense but I don't want a Sense ROM if I have to sacrifice my smooth UI, Browser acceleration and media codecs.
I had an HTC Desire HD and it did not have browser acceleration and media codec support though the launcher interface was fast and polished.
its imposible i think

Or you could just customize it without any modding

I simply do not see why people are so obsessed with HTC Sense, this is coming from someone who owned a HD2 running Android for a year and a half, any sense build i had on my phone never ran as smoothly as a non sense build that is the absolute fact i tested numerous different ROM's and each and every time the non sense builds were faster and smoother,it might look good but at what cost?

Sense ui port suggestion

Hi guys, do you guys think that porting sense ui of the HTC flyer to the touchpad is possible?
ive already looked into it, and the flyer would not work too well due to the chipset and the resolution. the Jetstream is more appropriate, but would be a ***** to port and would still require res adjustments, but not as bad as the flyer.
also, there still isnt a decryped pucinni (jetstream) rom available for us to muck about with, but if an eager dev/team want to REALLY get their hands dirty, the flyer rom would work eventually
have fun porting over HTC's frameworks to a non HTC device.

You say that like it's just short of impossible. The Nexus One has some great sense ports. I'm sure many other phones have as well. It's a lot of work, but very doable.
thast what i was sayin, it CAN be done, but man what a job that would be, it would definately need an experienced team that can handle disassembling HTC frameworks, and mass res adjustments
i DO love HTC software (sense ftw), but i can live with only having it on my sensation and not my TP

who manufactures the nexus one....... HTC
I was in the original group trying to bring sense to the Galaxy S series.
I never said it was impossible.
I just said have fun.
how similar are the touchpad's insides to the jetstream...i know the processor is the same and the display is obviously not the same.
Of course the other problem is developers need touchpads more than newbies like me who're interested in enjoying the spoils of their work (to put it bluntly), BUT it'd be great to see a nice glossy look sense ROM along with this glossy fingerprint mess case

JellyBean ported to our Flyer

Well,
i tried to see if the jellybean could somehow run, and currently it seems to run just as the ICS port that chaos did.
im still struggling with the bluetooth on it, but basically it seems to work, i still am not sure its h/w/egl accelerated.
but it runs, but looks pretty much like our ICS build with pretty much the same flaws and problems, except it using framework from 4.1.1.
im testing gps and other part the next days and might upload but cannot promise continued work on it, since our kernel is still the primary reason for missing camera and proper app switching and performance tweaks of kernel 3.x.
btw, it was based based on desireHD+tf201 builds. libs of DHD and framework from tf201 (got AdvancedPowerMenu builtin)
got problems with 160 as density, then its still with mobile view, 120 works, but very small.
Hi any news on development with port on one v ?
Is that his would be more functional to have a port with the htc ville C2? with HTC Sense
Thx for trying Dexter. How r the odds to improve the port? Same as XXL port?

well,
it goes forward. wifi,gps,compass,sound,vibrator,accelerometer,light sensor ..works..
camera,bluetooth and a fuzzy touch display when scrolling(as seen in other ics port)
I think the mobile view your seeing is the new 7 inch tablet mode. Basically the ui and launcher all look like a phone, while all the apps run in tablet view. I'm mixed on it myself, would be ok with it if the launcher worked in tablet mode. Good job nonetheless and good luck!

For me scrolling issue is the most annoying. It doesn't let us feel the fluidity of ICS and JB. And, fluidity is the USP of these higher versions. Though I use camera often also, but fluid scrolling is must for me. And, this is our main reason why we want ics on our device.

agree, and that is part of the onexxl rom, but sorry, i do not see it here and display drivers are not compatible.
but important is also that drivers are not native for this device, i might be in better luck porting a OneV rom, when its official.
i tried parts of the nexus one where possible, and still not much improved here.
camera i live without, i got a mobile + real camera beside this one.
So I guess Drew will not release his "build" because you have one now?

well, i am trying to port kernel changes to this rom, since chaos kernel compile, disables touch display for me, so im trying to see if i can get better performance on it with chaos work here, but unlike others, i cannot promise it works out. i am just trying for the fun.
i move from the tf201/dhd release to the official ota from nexus , so its odex'd for now, but does boot faster
okay,
i spend quite some time on it, and still no real progress.
media player is not using hardware decoding. and seems unstable when playing games.
i thought i had netflix working, but only upto playing a movie, and it went playing without picture
so for now, i am gonna rest on this work. it looked ok, but i do not accept all the bad flaws of it.
ill post an update, if i continue to look at it. for now i'm back at OneXXL
i decided to upload my work, with the recent changes done. you will find it online soon through this thread here

[Q] sense 5

So what's the deal, are we getting jb. 4.2 and sense 5 or what?
No, because you asked
Seriously, no one knows but HTC
And if we were to get sense 5, I more than likely will stay on sense 4+ since its much better
Slithered from my HTC One X+
Haha I personally do not like sense 4(+) much at all. I think sense 5 will bring a much needed aesthetic upgrade. We'll just have to see about the function as well. Out of curiosity, what leads you to think sense 5 will be a failure? I'm just wondering if you know something that I may have missed.

I personally do not like the metro look that sense 5 seems to have, gives a windows phone vibe to it
Hopefully it won't be as bad as I think, I might end up liking it but the screenshots I've seen I do not like

It's very rare that HTC device get updated versions of Sense with newer firmware. But it does happen. All you can do is wait and find out......
I dont like sense 4 ... anyway it will be ported from Buttefly or M7 as the image leaks...thats the worst case just we have to wait

Porting it from the butterfly will be a pain, since the resolution is higher.
I've played around with it and its a pain to try and mess around with those pesky m10 files
Slithered from my HTC One X+
I'm sure sense 5 will have more to it than the one screenshot that we've all seen. Would be very disappointing if the HOX+ doesn't get it. There's too much pessimism and not enough helpfulness on these forums lately, so I'm better off waiting silently I guess.

Maybe because sony doesn't use the m10 code since that's specific to HTC
Give it a shot, we will need the images from a phone with the same resolution or edit the code so it shrinks the images the right size, and we will need the software from a phone with a similar processor.

It's alot easer to port roms from one sony device to another. Sony favours using the same framework for all devices in the same generation. So the Xperia Z framework prob would of already contained the high res images.

Most probably not, only Buterfly and DNA will get the official upgrade as they have 2G Ram. Sense 5 will be officially out once M7 / Htc One is out which will be true very very soon, targeted for March/april !
Then will it be easy to port those to the OneX+, that should be feasible even if the resolution is not the same.
I hope we'll get Sense 5 because it looks very nice (I've seen some images).
If HTC doesn't release Sense 5 on older devices I'm definitly going to put a rom on my One X+.
well, this is a bit disappointing, it will make me wonder if I am going to remain loyal to HTC or not. I guess I'll just wait and see the news over the next couple of weeks.
We should see more of sense 5 today I believe!
OK, NOW I truly want sense 5, with all of what comes with it.. guess I'll ask my service provider if they do trade ins..

A Desire X Poet

I wanted a phone, with some pretty decent specs.
And that's when I discovered the HTC Desire X.
At first it looked small, nothing too compelling,
Little did I know that this was poor foretelling.
It looked quite dull, quite cheap and quite bland,
that was before it landed in my hand.
A hand to a glove is like a hand to this phone,
It just feels so kind, you can't leave it alone.
But it's not just a nice grip that this phone possesses,
its predecessor's problems - this phone addresses.
Super screen, ace audio and camera filters too,
I think that Instagram had better watch out for you.
But if a camera's not enough, you just have to have more,
that's when you meet, the all acclaimed - Play Store.
With 1000's of apps, just waiting to be found,
From the ubiquitous Angry Birds, to the incredible SoundHound.
I found the phone, but with spectacular specs.
Thank you HTC, for my HTC Desire X
xD that was awesome.
