Is it possible to get sense on Optimus V?
well combine CM7, a sense style theme, LP Sense UI, Fancy Widgets with H7C skins... you can get something that is sense-ish
i doubt we'll ever see anything closer to sense on the Optimus V
Thats what i thought :/
well
I did do some looking on youtube and cam across this http://youtu.be/PzlBijNUbnc an I was amazed but I don't know how he got it like that.
I think it would be pretty much impossible for us or most other non htc based phones to ever see a sense based rom, I believe the major reason is because of legality issues with it. Don't quote me on that though. I'd love to see it happen, but it just wouldn't be worth it for any devs
someone ported it to the optimus p500 and has a thread on it. It's very much possible and would probably be a huge pita.
Yeah i could see some trouble with legality. I did see something over on android central, it was a fully themed HTC Espresso ROM which i think would be pretty cool to have. However, the link was to a google docs file share and the file was gone
but, by the time i can afford a Moto Triumph they're will probably be quite a few ROM's out. I know they've already rooted with Gingerbreak. savin up my money
Probably something I did awhile back. The legality isn't/hasn't ever been an issue. It's just getting everything to work right. I did a cm7 theme (it's on the market) it's missing some things and right now I been making my own roms so that the lockscreen can look like it should and a couple other things.

I have that espresso rom and will pm it to anyone who wants it. Also, my sense theme is very accurate. There are threads about it in the optimus v themes thread, and the Motorola triumph theme thread. I hope you aren't disappointed if you try it out.

I have this on my incredible and its super fast. Feels very lite. It is a 2.2 aosp rom, so I'm thinking, easy on system resources. So I'm wondering if this could be useable on the eris. Would be nice.
Check it out...
Here is a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or-9T44Bt7M&feature=player_embedded

Possible, but impractical. Since the incredible has an hdpi screen, and the eris has mdpi, every single graphic has to be manually resized. It's possible, but it would be a nightmare. Maybe someday an automated solution will be created. That would rock!
Not gonna lie, that UI looks pretty legit. I would defiantly flash if someone ported it.
Yeah, that's got a really nifty UI... I want.
I would love to have this ported too...At first they said it worked on Desire but I thought they meant the desire that resembles the eris. I am almost tempted to go with a desire just so i can root and try out that rom...lol.
I've been drooling over this rom the past couple days. I rooted my buddy's dinc and was checking out roms for him and saw this one. It would be SAWEEEEET!!
Not that I have any idea what I'm talking about when it comes to porting (like at all), but could something like this be of any help? -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785864
it could be ported alot easier if the res on the screens was the same as ours, if the made that for the legend we would get it but most likely it wont happen. :/

Go to the incredible forums or the nexus one forums its being distributed there. I didn't think it would be that difficult given that my favorite 2.2 eris rom cyanogen tazz was ported from a nexus one build.
I'm running this on my incredible now. Its marvelous. It works better than sense running live wallpapers. No lag at all. It should run exceptionally good in the eris. Some one start a donation drive for someone who can port it.

I was just in the Legend forum and somebody has ported the HTC Wildfire's froyo with sense. It boots up but is not fully working yet. But it looks like the light at the end of the tunnel is getting a little brighter

Nope, KaosFroyo is definitely built from source by Kaos, specifically for eris. I think maybe v1 used code from the N1 dump, but there's really never been a functional eris rom ported from an HDPI device like you guys are asking for. People just don't do it.
I want it NOW!
Wow that UI is insane I want it. If anyone decides to port it or try ill add to donation

Is it possible to port the Gingerbread MIUI over to the Aria? or even just the notification pulldown?
Cm7 is gingerbread ... look through the themes and apps threads and I think there is a theme for 2.2 if you don't want to flash cm7.. you may need cm6 though, I can't remember

CM7 is a Gingerbread Android OS based off AOSP.
However, MIUI... is MIUI; different ROMs. He's not asking for CM7.
As far as MIUI is concerned, you could try.

Yeah and its only running on armv7 devices too. I think that's a big issue too.
I was really just testing out the ROM kitchen and seeing how much of a port it could do.
I also tried porting a hero froyo ROM (another gsm armv6 device) and apparently I am not smart enough to figure it out yet.
yeah porting is....yeah
from experience just need a compatible kernel
and then come the modules that are for that kernel, the hard part why i gave up on the espresso port

I was just looking for that thread! I couldn't remember who it was and was wanting to ask them how they managed to get it booted. I guess a mod must have deleted "dead" threads because I was looking for the cm6 build with fm radio for the floyo hero port and couldn't find it either :/
If it was just some dragging and dropping or editing some text files I could probably handle it. Or possibly if I knew what a tmp boot.img was... or status 0... or status 7...
You devs simply amaze me.
And since I'm already rambling.... has any one ever, or is it even possible to, build an aosp ROM from source for the liberty?
Yeah, MIUI is cool but the HDPI/MDPI thing and the ARMv6 kills chances of getting a port. Oh well. I love CM.
An AOSP ROM would be too close to CM for most people/devs to put the time in, in my opinion.

LOL. Not a chance. They're not going to bother updating the Sense version on the stock 2.1 ROM - it's likely the March OTA, being such a relatively minor update, is the very last official update the Eris will see. And fully working ports of Sense-based 2.2 and 2.3 ROMs have not been able to be made completely working; and I doubt at this point that it will ever happen.
That's what I figured expecially if the thunderbolt isn't getting. Just was wondering because the Eris wasn't getting froyo either but now I'm running gingerbread on it.

Android itself is open source, which allows any devs who want to create their own Android ROMs such as CyanogenMod or pure AOSP to do so. HTC Sense is proprietary and not open source, which makes making versions of it work on devices it wasn't made for much harder.
I like my froyoeris so much i hardly miss sense. it was nice but this phone is far, far better now than before <thank you kaos!> i might have tried one of the froyosense roms but i need to have a camera... cant miss the candid moments with the kids.
I don't miss sense at all. Besides the Widgets was there anything else really special to it?

I highly doubt it. They don't even think it can be ported to the Dinc in our forums. Sense 3.0 just takes to much space. Might be able to port some of the Widgets and junk though.

Agreed, been running AOSP forever tryed flashing a sense rom couldn't do it.
I thought that it would be a really good addition for TSM Parts. On my tablet so I can't really link any videos or demos. But its pretty neat and I've seen it on my friend's droid Eris, so why not on the fascinate?
I know nothing about the technical aspects of how to port something etc, but I thought I'd thought I'd throw this idea out there.

Don't know how difficult something like that is to port, but the reason you've seen it on an Eris is because it's an HTC phone with Sense... I would imagine that's pretty easy to port over
I imagine it's buried deeply in Sense's framework so I think porting it would be difficult, if not impossible. It would be cool though. The more lockscreen choices the better.

I guess this means you have never READ THIS? On topic, it is only possible to mimic a sense lock with what is available within the touchwiz frameworks (nitsuj17 has proven that very well). But no, a sense lock can't be ported to our device with the use of tw frameworks.
good day.

As for the op s original question... is it impossible? I used to yes to a lot if these things in pre sbrissen days... but now ill just say its unlikely
Most sense related things are extremely hard or too difficult to get working because of how heavily they are tied to the htc frameworks and resources
At best it would be too work for someone to get it working... so I doubt anyone would really take a stab at it... but then again who knows

It's been attempted several times from the og Droid to the sgs phones... and its never been completely successful.... I don't think 3g has ever been usable and there is usual hideous lag

It's actually quite simple to get it ported and booting. It's just that NOTHING will work, and it'll be laggy. With a ton of time invested in it, it probably could be done, but it'd be extremely difficult.
Either way, what we have now is spectacular, just that it'd be pretty sick to see some sense integration. Especially that lockscreen. The launcher can be replaced, as well as icons and system menus etc. Not lockscreens. Thanks for all the answers people!

Hey guys, basically I'm here to ask what kinda roms most users of the Thunderbolt like to use. I been playing with an idea to do something for yall. I don't have a Thunderbolt though so it wouldn't be anything sharp like ICS. I would probably want to do something based off of yalls OTA just to sort of get the feel for things first. I've did about 8 roms for the HTC Droid Incredible so I could kinda find my way without to much help I guess.
Anyways, I'm not sure if I will or not. i just wanted to see what yall think first.
I'll put in a poll to help decide.
well the answer to will I work on this device is starting to look pretty much answered, lol. We'll see though.

Thats a good concept. I just wouldn't want to put to much effort into something that I would never get to see or use my self especially if others here don't really want it. But I'm just gonna leave this open for a little while longer. Who knows, maybe I'll get a hundred votes tonight, lol
one thing that absolutely kills a rom for me is if I am unable to change apn settings
this is because I need to change them for mms to work on my carrier (cricket). If I cant change em, i cant use the rom. That is one thing i liked across yours and jermaines roms.
I knew instantly when i got my dinc I was a sense fan (in my opinion its way better than aosp interface) but as sense versions got higher 2.0 2.5. 3.0......... It really slowed my phone down compared to aosp roms...................... and then i found the minimalist roms............. and i was in heaven
so make a minimalist sense rom............... lol
I got rid of my inc before i found your roms but have been loading them on my friends inc, and i can say that they were smooth for me. Wouldn't mind dropping one of yours on my thunderbolt. After you figure your way around maybe a possible sense 3.5 rom! Just saying that'd be great. haha
I really like gingeritis3d by chingy510.. He has slowed down on his development do to school though.
What I like about his rom is that it is 2.1 based. 2.1 roms run alot better on my tb. He has added the 3d carrousel which I think most people look for and he incorporated the sexy smooth rosie that was developed by someone else here on xda.
The rom could benefit with more tweaks options, like 4g toggle and more quick settings. just my 2 cents. Thanks for your interest in deving for the bolt!
I personally use liquid gingerbread, its fast, light, and highly customizable. Please please please stay away from sense 3.5.
I know ill get flamed but please include the music player with beats Some people like that "eq" setting,and if they don't like it they don't have to use it.
Second the above post not a fan of sense 3.5
