themeing question. - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Ive been creating themes for many years nows. I happened to notice the htc one uses a xxhdpi for most of the pngs. Im used to xhdpi. Other than photoshop how can you enlarge pngs without loss of quality?

Really no way even with photoshop. Best way is to recreate images. I have to do it all the time. It's a pain in the rear.

man that sucks, what do you mean recreate? you mean from scratch?

Yes you have to redo each image to not lose quality on the HTC one. Goes for all 1080p screens including droid dna, oppo find 5, s4, xperia z, etc.

There may be but all it does is resize the image and you wont get the full quality of redone xxhdpo images.

Can this rom be ported?

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.

cyanogenTazz wasnt ported from the nexus one, it was from the hero or the g1 i dont excatly remember but not fromt he nexus one
Oh yea! My bad. Kaosfroyo I think was ported from n1
Sent from my Incredible using Tapatalk
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
Edit - Oops, I just realized this isn't where I wanted to post this lol, sorry!

So, is a port of this ROM going to remain a dream? lol I was just wondering if anyone was being ambitious.
Thanks.
Port it now please

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

[Q] Poll: Anyone hoping for Sense 4 on SGS3?

Just putting it out there as this would be a match made in heaven for me!
AOSP all the way
Wow haha
I'm crossing my fingers for Blur, or whatever Pantech uses..
Sense is a proprietary product of HTC. Why noy just buy the HTC One X, it has pretty good spec to compete with the S3 and has better physical design.
I wouldn't buy an iPhone in hope of able to install Android to it.

Personally what puts me off the One X is the lack of micro sd expansion and battery removal which seems to be the norm (sadly).
I suppose its just wishful thinking, but at least there will probs be a stock ICS rom that is better in my eyes than touch wiz.
This same thread was created during the debuting days of the Galaxy Nexus. Please go look there for answers as to why it wont happen. I hope this thread gets locked. It will only draw trolls and flamers

True. I just saw my friend today. His first day with a HTC one S. And he was using my HTC Doubleshot. His is stock he won't root he just bought it yesterday.
My phone is running Virtuous Inquisition with is senseless AOSP
.. mine is at standard clock 1.2 ghz. He said "how come your phone is faster than mine"
Sense 4.0 just like Sense always has will take so much of that "edge" off of Android.

HTC one x/s camera apk

Since the sensation got this port why can't we?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA
sense 4.0 framework differs from sense 3.6, thats simply it.
We can always just try to come up on the camera apk, lib files and just try it. Doesn't hurt.
Or you can download a app from the market until we get it working because I'm pretty sure our phone has the same features

Tried the apk and odex. No go. Even after setting permissions. That market link isnt even remotely similar either

Actually we had ICS for quite a bit, lol.
I've done a lot of research, there is an actual hardware difference in the htc one that makes a few new functions possible, even if we DO get that working on our phone, there won't be ANY different function because we are missing that chip.
Anyways, just go read this, at the very bottom, is explains the new image chip, and what it does.. without that chip(and sense4.0) there would be just about NO difference between our camera app and theirs. http://www.htc.com/www/htc-sense/camera/#page-navi
how does the camera work on the sensation
lol. actually my first comment sounded pretty dumb. but what i was trying to say is. since we got ics fully working.... a simple apk mod should be a piece of cake

really i dont think we need the freakin 30 shot but what we really should have is the panorama piece in the sense 4.0 camera, that would be nice, the 30 shot thing is meh unless you intend to use a phone like a pro camera sumtin wrong with ya go and buy a 3K camera then lol. thats just my opinion, panorama would be a decent upgrade for our phones, and to have an actual beats app even though thats not even related <_< .

I agree we dont need a freaking 30 shot just the ability to control when to start and when to stop the burstshot at will. Just sayin and why would i need a 3k cam if i got a Smartphone that is intended to fill that necesity as well as many others ne ways thats just my opinion....

Just had a good look at the threads, seems we have the same issue that was stopping the use of the Xperia lockscreen on every other device other than xperia devices, it's only ported to fellow xperia devices, no one ever ported it to be able to be used on any device the way the home launcher was ported. >.<

But if you can get that lock screen hmm I wouldn't mind it being a rom as well

Ubuntu Developer Preview DNA Compatibility

Anyone know if sideloading the Ubuntu Developer Preview would work with CWM on our phone?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBJ7U3omGps
We need to get a working CM build before we can do that. Currently, the N4 and GN builds are using a CM kernel as a base for the Ubuntu Dev preview. Theoretically, we can build something that boots (since we do have a booting CM build) it would lack a ton of things though such as voice and data.
If someone knows a bit more info, feel free to correct me.
The developer preview is limited in these functionalities anyway as far as I'm aware

After watching several videos on Ubuntu, I'm both excited to try it, and little confused. In almost all videos, it looks almost exactly like Android. The task bar looks the same, it pulls down the same way, the icons look basically the same.
Don't get me wrong, I love having options, but it doesn't seem to be very unique.
Any thoughts on this?

There are several differences. First of all, the thing you will most readily notice is that there are not button/hardware or otherwise for the ubuntu phone OS, it uses gestures similar to the blackberry 10 OS. In some instances this is better at other times, it is nice to have a button. In the long term, your benefit will be the ability to have a larger screen on a smaller device since you won't have to have a longer device to accomadate the buttons.
From a more technical standpoint, using pure linux removes some of the more contentious parts of android like the use of Java. Some of which may provide a faster user experience on the same hardware if Ubuntu can manage to ditch xorg. You could also, argue that the app availability and scalability of ubuntu is greater than android. In other words, soon you'll be able to walk around with a linux device that you can plug into a monitor and blu-tooth keyboard and have a full fledge desktop all from the same hardware -- Carry one device - access it anywhere and in whatever capacity you need it at that time.
Put it on my galaxy nexus it's not really all that it is fun to play with but I had problems with calls. DNA is much better but stock android will make this the best device all day. If only it had the front stereo speakers powered by beats this phone would never need to be upgraded
