Hi,I'm kinda new at this ROM Cooking thing,but can someone teach me how to add HTC Friendstream and HTC Legend browser to HTC Hero Rom?
Id assume you find the relevant apks and put into the correct folders, no? But only on sense roms as the HTC libraries are needed aswel, cant just add the apks to Vanilla ROMs.
But I know JACK about rom building!

Correct!
You'll only be able to do it with a 2.1 Sense Rom just now, not any of the 2.2 Vanilla ones availale just now.
It sounds like you're using a vanilla version, in which case you could use LaucherPro and use those widgets which basically do the same thing
Thanx pal,.. oh yeah, Launcher Pro,... Google 'launcher pro plus' and take a look at the alt widgets they provide.
And next time,... please post in GENERAL or QnA. Thanx

I'm not using vanilla,I was trying to cook a ROM and I want to integrate the two features mention above...
2.1? Why don't you use Villain12 as a base?

dont think its possible, i've never seen it done anywhere before
hello
RCMix 2.2b has friendstream and Legend browser.
Boot time is excelent, I'm currently using it with flykernel 10a.
And it's faster than VR12, I was also using that for quite some time
Simply remove unnecessary things from RC2.2b and You are all set
hope this helps.
Cheers!
Is that true that on sense 4.1 the background on the home isn't moving anymore while sliding through the pages? I think that it would be very disappointing in the case..

Yes no more scrolling
What about a multi picture background option? One that shuffles through images in an album during the day

My HTC one s with sense 4.0 and 4.1 has the background that moves while you pass front widget to another, this has been removed on sense 4+
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I missed the scrolling wallpapers too.. With the Apex or Nova launcher (and problably some more) you can "restore" the scrolling wallpaper option, but then you can't use the Sense widgets anymore.. :/
On the jelly Bean waiting thread on the one s section someone suggest that this feature may be restored by changing a value inside Rosie but I'm not sure

Sense 4+
p.s. on 4.0.4 with sense 4, it worked very well.
I was wandering if there is a way to make a hybrid rom or if a dev would be willing to try to make one. I'm just suggesting because I like sense 5 but I do miss the sense 4+ widgets they removed and the carousel home screen transitions. Also being able to move your home screens around to a different spot. Everything else I like is from sense 5. If maybe someone could port those over or make a sense 4+/5 hybrid. Just a suggestion.

given the massive changes to sense, it would be a lot of work to try and integrate sense5 features into a stock rom or vice versa
given the dependency changes as well (fusion, assets, rosie/prism, etc) you would be asking for issues
not to say its impossible...but i dont see the amount of time needed and the probability of it not even panning out really being worth a dev's time....then again, some people seem to have 100 hours a week to work on stuff, so who knows
Unless you wanted to pay a lot for a developer to do this, it's doubtful. You could always download both versions and make your own hybrid. Granted this would be simple things such as icons and such (already available to download on Viper DNA) , unless you know how to code.

The one Sense 4+ widget I don't miss is FriendStream. I know some don't like the fact that it isn't removable from the homescreen, but BlinkFeed beats FriendStream by a country mile.
I love blinkfeed.

Blinkfeed is great if your into the whole "social" thing but what if your not? Sense 4 for me right now is were I'm at. Maybe Sense 5.1 will bring back some of the widgets I want. Also blinkfeed would be better if it had like emails and messages like windows phone. Its really just a fancy RSS reader.

thats not a hybrid rom...thats a sense 4+ rom that has sense5 icons/images/fonts etc
a true *hybrid* would mix the frameworks/apks/widgets and so on...not just mimic the look
i remember the days of the hybrid sense 2/3 roms on the OG Inc...good times.
That ROM would probably take up a lot of system space since they call on different system commands..
I like this idea a lot, although i think the amount of work makes it not really worth the time someone would have to spend on it. There are some things I miss about sense 5. For example, why did they remove all the customizability? No skins? I feel like they're kind of pulling an apple on us. Regardless, I love sense 5. I keep switching back and forth though because I do miss 4+ sometimes.

I know tw is not as good as sense but if you see from a themers point of view then tw is better than sense. Why? Because the system apps are very simplified in their codes and you can edit them easily with understanding, it has no dependencies like HTC has. That's why there are so many mods for tw and very less for HTC phones.

that's right..I was trying to modify systemui yesterday, wasted like 5 hours, tried every method,but every time there was some error , either the items which I was trying to modify were disappeared or in worst case whole UI stopped working..on the other hand editing for a Samsung device took me like 15min. the other day & everything was perfect, no errors..
but still Sense looks cool, it is one of reasons why people buy HTC..

Replacing hTC Sense is a non-sense because Sense is hTC and TouchWiz is Samsung
one thing that I'missing here is the font from the Samsung phones which is really nice...
Sense is so much better than TW!
I have created a mod using the VRTheme template to allow several of the stock HTC widgets to work on other launchers. I have only tested this on my rooted, but stock AT&T M9 running the 1.32.502.31 ROM.
To use this mod, you have to have Sense running on your ROM and the widgets already need to be installed. This mod is only designed to modify the widgets so that you can use them on launchers besides Sense Home.
To make this work, I decompiled the above apk files and dug around in the manifest to try and figure out what was preventing them from showing up in the other widget pickers. I figured out that for each of the widgets, there was an xml folder that controls aspects of the widget. In these xml files I found a line that was: htcControlFlag="1" By removing this from the xml or changing it to htcControlFlag="0", the widget is now free to be used. I recompiled the widget apk files and then just removed the modded xmls and put them all in this VRTheme template.
If you try this mod, please be sure to backup your system partition first. Also, ask any questions and I can elaborate on this thread later. Or add more of the widgets.
I would love some feedback from people running the international versions.
Updated 7/20/15: I found that the Android 5.1 version of the rom requires a new MOD. So I renamed the original one to reference the 5.0.2 ROM and the new one to reference the 5.1 ROM.
Updated 8/16/2015: I am told that the 5.1 version works on the older 5.0.2 ROMs. I have not verified this myself, but others have.

Hey that's great, but I think Venom Roms already have this in them. I used to run Venom on my M8 and I could use these widgets in Nova Launcher. That was actually my inspiration for figuring out how to do it.
Updated the OP to add a new MOD for the 5.1 ATT ROM. I am still not sure if these work on the equivalent international versions, so if anyone tries it please let me know.
Hi thanks for this. Is it possible to do the same for the htc music widget?
Many thanks.
