So, is there a Froya build with HTC Sense? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development

I know there is a 2.1 Sense. That's what I'm running. But is there a way to have 2.2 with Sense?

not yet obviously.

you could try installing the android system monitor app ( cant rightly remember the exact name of the app, but thats close, just search the market- if u cant find it, lemme know, i'll post the .apk) and use it to backup all the sense related .apk's to your sd card, then install the 2.2 blazin or reference build and drop the apk's in your Android Apps folder of the "." build, then run the mjg droid utility n make sure theyre allchecked in menu/apps. Im not sayin it'll work, but its worth a shot. Lemme know if it works if u try it

Does anyone have a list of the Sense .apk's I will do a little searching. If I find anything I will post back.

Not 100% sure on this but why not get the sense apk's from the earlier builds? They are already rooted if I'm not mistaken so the only question remains is what folder will all the apk's be located (I can't remember). The next question remains is if it would work with the latest builds or not.

I have tried this already. As soon as the phone boots, Launcher2 quits. HTC Sense Launcher was not built for 2.2.
We will most likely have to wait till HTC releases a froyo phone with the Sense UI, for us to properly port it to our froyo builds.

Hasn't that already been done?

as far as i know you can not install any sense .apk's ona not sense build because they use a differnet framework.
so you would need a complete sense build in order to install any htc sense .apk's

there is a link for a desire sense apk.. which links to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5686103

There are a couple of releases for the HD2 that have the Desires system put into a system.ext2 file. Unfortunately this needs a newer kernel than we have available for our machines.

yall should reach out to Klinux. We originally released the 2.1 sense but ive been pre-occupied with kernel crap.
If anyone has the de-deoxed version of the 2.2 from the Evo, im sure klinux can figure out a way to get it to run.

i'm on it. Thanks ACL!!
EDIT:
I sent KLINUX a PM letting him know what we are up to. I will let you all know if I hear from him. In the meantime, I am looking into what it would take to get the sense apk's de-deoxed myself if possible.

Excellent. Keep us posted.

DONUT available - need to update NOW?

Hello devs,
I have red that Donut has been released.
HTC has released its update. I have already updated my Hero. Because there is no Java, I want to install Modaco's ROM.
My question is: can I expect a donut-release in a short time?
If so, then I will wait updating to Modaco, because of losing all data.
if you are just missing the java implementation i would recommend you this Thread or rather the way that worked for me Link
What update are you talking about from HTC? build 2.73.405.5 is still 1.5 (cupcake). I'm a little confused.
The sdk for donut has been released. Sure that the firmware is on course for its October release.

This is what confuses me. He says he already updated his Hero. The SDK is released, not the firmware..correct?

yes thats correct
He's just saying he installed the official HTC update that MoDaCo leaked a few weeks ago. Now he wants to go MoDaCo (perhaps because it's prerooted, installs apps on the sd and so on). He is just wondering whether it's a good idea, if 1.6 is released very soon.
No, 1.6 will not be released very soon (at least not as a HTC Hero Rom), so go ahead and flash with MoDaCo, if you feel you need it. Your phone won't get much faster than with the official update, but at least you'll have something to play around with.
just a quick question, i have MoDaCo rom installed on my hero and if i download the HTC official update would i lose root? and will android 1.6 can be download as a custom rom?
by the way:
what does leaked mean in this context? is it really some kind of "ripped" or how do we have to understand this?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd assume someone working for HTC or testing the ROM put the files online.

That would be the definition of leaked, yes, which is probably how we got this ROM pre official release.

Sorry if this sounds very noobish, but how do you install apps to the SD card? I installed a couple of apps after moving to Modaco's Rom, but I do not know how to install them to the SD card instead of the phone's memory. Are they by default installed on the SD card with Modaco's Rom?
Thanks in advance for the clarification.

Dont really want to help you hijack this thread away from the intended purpose, but if you were specifically asking about modaco's rom, next time it might be wise to read or "SEARCH" his thread keywords so that you can find your answer. Indeed there are a few answers in that thread that help you to find out if your apps are installing to SD.
But to answer your question, if your card is partitioned (Fat32,swap,ext3) then your apps will be installed to your sd card by default from Modaco's rom.
Thank you and my apology if I've drifted from the thread subject. Next time, do not answer me if I'm drifting and I'll know where to look somewhere else.
Thanks for your info.

Espresso Dialer on 2.1 Leak Possible?

Hello guys and gals.
With all the fun/madness of the last 24hrs or so on here I think I've tried all the new 2.1 roms BUT I cant get the HtcDialer.apk from the old Espresso rom working with any. Its a much better dialer imo.
I think it has something to do with the Eris leak roms having .odex files and the Espresso not but cant be sure. Is anyone more clued up on this able to shed any light if a port is possible?
I'm pretty sure adwinp used it in his [email protected] 2.1 rom once and it worked fine...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580339
Oz
definitely, I'm also waiting for something like this to come!, I was hoping to get the espresso look on the phone
I presume you've asked adwinp if he can assist? If not, might be worth a check. IIRC, apk files can be converted to odex files, but I'm not sure. More likely to be a compatibility problem that can be fixed in code IMHO.

HTC Sense on TP2 Android ?

Hello Everyone,
First, sorry for my english cause i'm french
I've got a simple question: is it possible to have HTC sense (as on the desire) with Android (XDAndroid 2.2 Froyo FRX01 Final 2.2)
Thank's
The sense builds were abandoned, they were an atrocity to use.
But, they can be found on Reef's web page... I don't think they've had any work done on them recently - you can certainly upgrade the zImage/modules, rootfs etc but the system image won't be up-to-date...

I have installed "ProjectAndroid2.1Sense.061610" on my tp2. I then copied "zImage", "startup.txt" and "Modules-2.6.27.46-01149..." from the 30/08/10 release into my "ProjectAndroid2.1Sense.061610" "andboot" folder, having deleted the original "zImage", "startup.txt" and "Modules-2.6.27.46-01149..." files from "andboot".
In the end I have sense 2.1 running, with wifi, radio (network) and sound of course. The "startup.txt" from the 30/08/10 release has overclock, so it is not too bad for speed.
So, in a way, yes you can.
CREDITS: To someone somewhere on the forum who gave these tips, can't remember who.
Only the 'blazn' builds have an overclock statement in the startup.txt...
ive wonder the the samething know i know thanx

That is the correct one. Thanks, I was writing everything from memory, and no doubt, couldn't remember every detail, however, everything else is as should be.

The rest of it looks pretty accurate
This project was abandoned for this device but not for the other phones ie. topaz, hd,etc..If you want to update your system image, just replace the old one with the new one that you will find all the updates on here

i got a simple answer.. find me a 2.2 froyo with sense that was made for a msm7k device and ill make it happen. So far Hero, Eris and Legend dont seem to have a 2.2 with sense so we cant modify it to run on the tp2.
The desire, incredible and other qsd devices have different libs we cant run those. So we must have one of the devices above (msm7k) for this to happen.
We could always try to use 2.1 libs but thats just barbarism and asking for a really unstable system.

What about an HTC Wildfire? That's an msm7k device with Sense, and it's got an update to 2.2 Froyo:

sorry guys.. looks like the version that is out is some chinese release. Not even the Legend guys can get it working so its going to be harder for us. I'll wait till the official 2.2 is out for the wildpoop
I have got myself sense & froyo builds. Now I want sense with froyo improvements like speed wifi etc..can anyone suggest me how to do that?
?? where did you get a sense + froyo build that would run on the tp2?
Has'nt HTC Wildfire got it's official Froyo 2.2 update? If not can't we use one build from the HTC Wildfire froums?

Port thunderbolt sense 2.0 to the Evo 4G 2.3.3

First off if this is the wrong place for this thread im sorry.
But moving on! Im wondering if it's possible to port over the sense 2.0 from the thunderbolt to run on the evo 4G running the new 2.3.3 stock aos? I have the same SD card I had in my thunderbolt and I have all the backup files from titanium so I should have everything as far as software goes for 2.0 if im wrong someone please let me know what all I need...but all that being said if there is anyway possible that this can be done I'd love to do it make it my project or atleast give it a shot .... Idk maybe im just making myself look like a retard... But any help/advice/tips would be great thanks!
You could just flash one of the Sense 2.1/3.0 Gingerbread roms. Would probably be a lot easier.
Restoring system apps/data from one device on another entirely different device doesn't sound like the best idea.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
I would love to be able to flash a rom but therein lies the problem im on 2.3.3 which doesn't have root or s- off "yet" i was gonna truly and run sense 2.0 or 3.0 as a shell or theme kind of like spb shell for nonrooted users so no adding, changing, or replacing system .apk files or changing the build at all.

I'm pretty sure that wont work, but the idea behind it is good. To get a new version of Sense working you will need root access.
Yeah that's what i figured... this is so irritating is the first time I haven't had root access in forever! Can't get any work done!
Im kinda considering getting together with some devs and tryin to build a whole new sense based rom
Close this thread please moderators!!

Guide to GB ROMS?

Hello all,
I like many others, I have installed the new GB ROM from the RUU supplied by HTC and it is "OK". However, i would like something else.
I have seen many guide to install ROMS and it seems more or less clear.
My problem, and maybe the problem for other noobs if the fact that there are so many ROMs out there. It is difficult to know which one to take.
For example, I am looking for plain old stock android 2.3 for the desire. No sense, no extra HTC apps. Just what google would have on the nexus 1. But, I cant figure out which ROM fits that.
Any ideas?
What would be great is sticky which lists the ROMs and their main features for all us noobs. Unless there is one already and I didnt see it
Get Oxygen Rom mate its nice and basic , if u want to go too basic get DevNull
But for starters i think u shud go with oxygen
Pm me if u want to discuss any other details

Well, if you installed official Gingerbread 3.14.405.1 RUU, you can't get root (yet). No root means that you can't install custom rom.

watch the video tutorial too - but it sounds like you want an AOSP rom
Yup, you definitely wanna try Oxygen + it was recently updated to Android 2.3.5.
It's sense free, all bloatware removed, very fast & minimalistic.
http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=149 (it wasn't updated on XDA yet, but you can download it from there)
CyanogenMod7 will also fit you.
Should have read into what you were doing before you updated. You can't root now, which means no custom ROMs for you. HTC updated HBOOT so no more rooting for the time being. You're stuck with it till someone cracks it. Unlucky dude.
My recommendation:
Sense (2.1+3.0) : InsertCoin 1.0.9
AOSP: Oxygen
no MIUI from me...sorry..
Thanks for all the replies. I am pretty sure it is only a matter of days or weeks at most until I can root. I recall the same situation last update.
It sounds like oxygen is the way to go. Once the root is available I will give it a shot. Thanks.
