I recently found a brilliant new rom for the desire and nexus one.
Its called Miui, and its kind of a mix from different platforms, but still based on android 2.2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or-9T44Bt7M
It has some amazing features, and it would be great for a port to be made for our age old Hero
Is a port actually possible?
Thanks
It looks really nice, but it will almost be impossible, because of the different hardware..
I also really want the ROM on my Hero
Maybe a lot of people do and even want to donate for it.
I'm just saying...
Yeah, looks nice
I looked at their webpage, good thing that chrome has auto-translate option
It would be great to see that on my Hero.
cheers
brat.haneq
thats one beautifull rom!!
think my old hero would evaporate if it tried to run that!
So is it possible?

i was saying a port of the current MiUi rom wasnt possible, it could possibly be re-designed for Hero hardware... but the devs would know best

Well there's a guy on the miui-dev forums saying that if he'll get it booted and working it someone can get it to mdpi resolution.. but how possible that is I'm not sure.

i also would like to see this on Hero, but... i doubt it could be due to hardware like mentioned before. but, ya never know!

that makes me happy, haha
I think maybe there's a developer out there who want to make a MIUI lokk alike ROM for htc hero
I hope
MIUI says it won't do this work on hero because Hero's resolution is too low

Hi there. Im pretty new to Android, but im guessing the answer to this question would be yes. Im also guessing that this would require rooting the SGS2?
Thanks
Not atm. Might be available in the future if some dev put ALOT of work into it, tho I doubt it myself...
Will require root yes.

maybe after they finish the port on Nexus S, currently on 0.2 working
If you really want Sense that bad, maybe you should go with the HTC Sensation..? It's just as good as the SGS2 (Spec wise)
i am about to buy a new phone and am stuck on this very question
is the s2 going to get a sense ROM???
the original galaxy s still doesnt have a fully functional sense ROM
I have to purchase my phone within the week and the sensation will not be available before mid june
Sure it's possible but I'd imagine it would be a fair bit of work. Hopefully once this phone hits more markets we'll get a few more devs to work on projects like these

I'm not sure why you'd purchase a GSII if you want Sense. To answer your question, the only way to KNOW the GSII is going to get the ROM is to make it yourself. None of us on here can tell you it will happen, or won't happen, with any certainty. It seems extremely unlikely to me though, as most seem to either be satisfied with TouchWiz 4.0 or are interested in something more AOSP-y.
Why can't you wait an extra week or 2 for the Sensation? That seems a much better option for you.

You can make the phone look like sense... With launcher pro plus and a sense mod you can find on this forum. Launcher pro plus has the same look for the widgets, like friendstream.
The sense mod had the sense themes, the dock and so on...
With widgetlocker you can get the sense lockscreen.

I always thought that XDA-Dev is about doing such things, just because you can, not because you need it.
It is, but some people seem to forget that. They also can't think beyond two feet in front of them either, so you will have to remember that when you listen to/read what others have to say.

I'm not doubting that. But remember how much work it is to port something like Sense, and that work needs to be coupled with a desire to do it by someone with a lot of talent. The SGSII may get a stable Sense port, it's entirely possible. But look at the progress made on the original SGS. Last time I looked it was alpha stuff that really wasn't all there yet, and that device has been out a year now. No one should be making any kind of decision on the SGSII with the hope that Sense will be ported.

True, but one can always ask right? Or if you have the tools and knowledge, you can chip in and help to find a solution if it exists. I didn't buy my SGSII in hopes of getting a sense port, but wondering if it was possible shouldn't get me or anyone else flamed for asking either.

You're not getting flamed. There's just an inordinate number of threads asking about Sense on the GSII, and the answer is pretty easy. It's definitely possible, why wouldn't it be, when it's one Android build to another? The real question to answer is...is how difficult will it be and is it likely to happen. I gave you my opinion. If you disagree or don't like it that's fine, it's just my opinion

I'm glad you presented it as your opinion, and you're right in that I can agree or disagree with it. But you aren't the type of person I was referring to. I can respect anyone that presents their case in a clear and concise manner, but I have no respect for people that do nothing but interject with nothing pertinent to add to the discussion. All they do is spout off their opinion like it's gospel and you should agree with them, and if you don't, then you're an idiot.

Yeah I guess. And I'm sure someone must know I think it's just less talked about because of what happened because the main MIUI dev is a *insert bad word here* haha
that's how it goes unfortunately... many will be leaving very soon I'm sure, especially once christmas comes.
Any there are tons of functional miui roms, no need to be a flashaholic.
find one and stick with it

Yep :/ and 3 is hardly tons.... 1 is outdated and has many bugs which is a shame because it was pretty good minus the bugs, and the other two both have data connection issues.
I really like the Sense interface and loved it on my g1.
This phone has the same chipset as the HTC Wildfire so I know it has the performance power to run it smoothly. So lets do try and get a poll going so I can see if anybody else agrees. We could all pitch in .50cents to a dev and see what he comes up with.
Plz vote.
well ciaox already working on it and defintely we will get sense for p500

If you can develop please jump in. I don't think putting pressure on ciaox is going to help. In fact, it will probably just upset him.
We're all eager for new stuff but we only have a limited amount of true developers, please be patient and offer them encouragement.
Actually ciaox was going to port oxygen( i think), but he is already busy with sense
Hello People, I'm Moon And trough my world of android have i gotten lowend devices for own use. i love them because they're so cheap and still Great.
I have come from the GT540 Optimus to the ZTE blade and now the x8,
(I kept the Blade trough.) I am a big fan of Racht and his sense ports, what i want to ask you people for, since Racht seems to have disappeared should we do what developers and friends of him do. We finish what he started.
Most important is currently The GL Drivers I think, Maybe some RAM Management. The free ram is very low. (about 40\50mb) This causes Rosie to reload after coming from other apps. this would be cool to fix.
I asked XDA MEMBER # Kenia1234 (he ported it to the SGS)
About 3d\open gl and wifi. this was his reply.
however as regards 3D I fixed it using my device's libs under system/lib/egl or under /vendor/lib/egl and of course using a CM7 powered kernel...
as regards the wifi, it's a little bit more complicated...you'd need to have the bins of your device under /system/bin and the firmwares all in order, as the kernel wants to...
hope this was useful!!

Yes it was useful Thank you. any other Sense porters please contact us.
I know a little about this but not enough to do it myself yet.

I think he needs a little rest...
racht said that he will port HTC kernel and that means fully working Sense rom as soon as he's back.
I don't know where he is or what is he doing, but he's on xda often. (last activity today).
And I think he's getting Xperia Ray - his post here. Also that's the last thing he posted.
Anyway, the man will spoke, and we shoud donate to him a new device if he's selling his one. To continue development. But, we need to wait until the man spokes!!
I appreciate racht so much, and I hope he doesn't forget our X8.
OH.

I See, Thanks for Providing this information to the masses.
The Ray is the best Choice after the Arc, For me, Since i like big screens.
But yes. Lets just hope for the best. the Guy i updated on, (On the op) is doing GB sense too. We should let Racht Rest and hope for the best.
In racht's last Sense Port there is a lot of bugs. I really love that rom but it has a lot of bugs.
I was without SIM Card and in the Notification Bar it was showing that i used %S(something like this) tries for the unlock key and blablabla.
SD Safe to remove bug in ROOT Apps
I tried to connect the phone to my car radio and it doesn't show anything in the phone, only the icon changed to charging, but no led, no popup for connecting, nothing. And the radio does not recognized the phone. (i think it will happen the same in the computer, i think)
3d, wifi, 3G and vibra not working, as it shows on the original topic
So this is what has to be worked on
I cannot help you so much because i'm not a good java developer, i can only understand some parts of the code, but i cannot write it. But if you want a beta tester i'm here to try to find the maximum bugs i can
I will love if someone could continue what Racht did
I am following the news.
As I have said some months ago, X8 is now added to official CM tree, you can see here :
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=shakira
So, I guess thats the end of CM story (even that I prefer tweaks by doixanh).
Sense rom depends on kernel features that do not work on .29 kernels.
See HTC threads, all new roms require .32 or .35 kernels, lets hope X8 will get a new kernel ported.
And thanks again for support

Great to see your alive Racht! And whut o:? does this mean that this rom is a fully working CM7 release like my Blade has?
And Yes, I've heard about the basics of porting sense.
Even trough you would be the best teacher.
Does this mean That Your Leaving the Shakira forums now racht?

As he wrote, he wouldn't be developing sense on X8. That's bad. Anyone want to take care of this project?
Blagus said that we have to port HTC kernel first, but it's .32 or newer kernel. We have only .29 now. Therefore it follows that we can't have sense on X8 now.

hi
after I just put the ViperS (S3)-based JB4.1.1 w/ Sense 4+ ... for HTC Sensations on the HTC SensationXE of my gf, I was wondering why there isn't any cross-patched ViperLTE build for our Dinc4G device using the S4-version of the OneS as a base?
I mean, if it has been done for the Sensation-line, which also is S3-based since there isn't any official JB build ... why "they" (Viper ^^) didn't try to re-base the OneS S4-roms (with JB4.1.1 & Sense4+) for our Dinc4G ... i also remember that ViperLTE 2.x.x also ALREADY had bootanimations from the HTC One-Series! so it _was already_ partially based on the ICS code of the S4 OneS, wasn't it?
thanks for your insides :laugh:
PS: srry if that had already been discussed, but i didn't see it so far. i love the performance of the JB4.1.1 on the SensationXE and the gallery etc improvements from Sense4+ are also very nice ... so why not ask for the same "style" of a cross-based OneS S4-build ^^
PPS: i know we are supposed to receive a JB4.2.x Sense5 at "some point" in some "possible version of our future" ^^ ... but we all know that waiting until an _unknown_ point of time in the future is very hard xD (and i dun like the Sense5-looks too much anyhow)
330 views and not a single reply? i guess that means ... a (big??) NO!!, right!?
oh well, a bit of a pity but okay. i kinda expected a zero-reply ... maybe i give it a try myself. i know linux quite well, but as i have absolutely no background in android-coding, i doubt it'll work out ... and no, if it works somehow (in booting at all i mean :cyclops ... i will still pay due respect to the wishes of the original venom-coders and definately _not post anything_ containing their code!
I just want to find out if it works. i know we have the JB4.1.1 "Infernal 0.7beta"-ROM, but i also kind of like the venom-addons, that's why i want to give it a try if no one else does. (using jose's Sense4+ kernel i think, as it's the only Sense4+ kernel we have :laugh ... it's just that EVERYONE seems to be updating to the looks of _Sense5_ and even adding ported Sense5-apps, but I just do not like their looks compared to Sense4*, srry ^^; ... but IF it does boot, I'll let you know at least the binary answer of YES vs NO. :highfive:

okay, so if they don't ... "decide" ... to port it on their own -> it just won't happen. oh, well. still a bit of a pity as they ported this/these 4.1.1/Sense4+ roms to other/similar HTC phones. just our Dinc4G doesn't seem to be that lucky
The reason behind it not being ported is that Justin does not want to. He said he would update viper if our phone ever got an official HTC update.
