how to install signed apps (sense ui apps) on htc magic - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

sorry if i'm posting this in a wrong section, but an idea came to my mind:
is it possible for me to install, for example HTC_Albums or HTC_Music or one of those apps from a Hero ROM for Magic, or maybe that Motorola Gallery from one of those 2.1 ROMs?
when i try to simply install it from phone, it says "this app couldn't be installed on your phone".
is it because it is a signed app or is it because of the incompatible firmware version?
i'm currently on 1.6 and would like to have better gallery and music app (maybe the one from Hero Sense UI ROMs...), without waiting fore some of the devs and mods to implement it into their ROM...

im going to guess and say if it hasnt been done it probably cant. although it would hurt to try and pull it from another rom and build it into yours?

Most HTC apps are tied to the HTC framework and cannot run on non-SenseUI ROMs, unfortunately.

2.1 SDK Released

I'm sure y'all devs already know this http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/01/android-21-sdk.html , but just in case ..If so mods please delete this
It is including the Sapphire's drivers?
Confirmed.
Downloading ...
Nice.. hope there are 2.1 roms to come that have camera, bluetooth and every thing working
Now if only HTC will release their 2.1 ROMs to Hero/Sapphire soon... Sense + 2.1, that'd be awesome.

You won't get working camera's until HTC releases the drivers, this has nothing to do with the SDK... now... to just get HTC to let us have them...
Here's a sapphire 32b compatible rom based on the Android 2.1 sdk system image:

[Q] GB 2.3.3 Sense UI Messaging on MIUI / CM7?

I did some XDA searching and some Google searching and no firm answer was located...
I know that the Sense ROMS on Froyo and GB with their applicable Sense apps are wholely dependent on the Sense framework.apk. I was wondering if this also applies to the Sense Messaging app mms.apk?
I am currently running a MIUI 1.4.22 ROM and I really like the Sense messaging app over the MIUI stock, GB stock, CM7 stock, Handscent, Chomp, etc messaging apks.
Before I try to install a GB Sense mms.apk on my HTC DZ to replace the stock MIUI mms.apk which will likely result into boot loop after boot loop, and invariably screw up, was wondering is anyone has tried to do the same WITH SUCCESS?
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, any HTC app will require HTC's framework..this applies to the phone app, contacts, calender, friend stream, the Sense widgets, etc. I haven't tried to do this myself, but I could only guess it applies to the mms.apk also. Although, I don't think it will put you in bootloop if you tried and it failed, probably would just FC. For it to work with CM7 or MIUI framework I think it would need to be ported.

Perhaps the developers dont have sense 3.0 ready yet maybe. Thats just like the issue i have with netflix on my evo; it doesnt even show up in the market on my evo running sense 3.0 nor any other non stock rom for that matter.

Can somebody please test this..[MOD]Beats for any Sense ROM

Hi guys, just tried to install this mod for the evo3d, 3.0sense rom. Not on sense 3.0 still flash without errors, not sure if its working or not i , but didn't see any beats icon or settings, im on 2.2 stock rom with x99 kernel, and i think its sounds better but not sure, any help would be appreciated thanks

Well your in the shift forum but from the looks of the op you linked here, there should have been some beats icons installed so maybe something didn't go right
Sent from a MikSupremed Shift
the issue its because this mod is for 2.3 ginger 3.0 sense and my shift is in stock 2.2, sense 1.0, but still it flashed tru recovery ok, and i think the audio sounds better but not 100% sure and no signs of icons or beats app or something. also read on original thread samething happen to somebody else with other htc model and he confirmed it work ok , so i guess its working, i just wanna confirm if its working with other shift users

I haven't read the OP linked just going off what I have read in reports. but even if the mod worked you wouldn't notice a difference unless you had a pair of beats headphones (im assuming you do)
I have beats headphones but didn't plug them in I don't see any icon or options in music for the beats is it just enhanced or should I notice an icon or setting somewhere?

edit: had to change the updater script, but all i get is a force close. Tried the FC-fix zip also and it still force closed. I'm on MikG 1.76 but it will probably work on NFX's Kingdom port, possibly Strapped's Supreme Sense
Read original thread and saw that it won't work on odexed roms and I think its only sense 3.0 music player, not sure which is included in MikG or supreme sense but both roms are odexed so a deodexed sense 3 Rom is what I've concluded you need for that mod

[Q] Is there the ROM that contains only HTC kernel?

Hello.
I'm looking for the modified HTC stock ROM that is wiped out of everything HTC bloated there/changed to AOSP apps. I don't want any of the HTC apps, sounds, icons, themes and lockscreen because I hate them.
The result should be the excellent stability kernel without anything I didn't installed myself.
Unfortunately, AOSP ROMs from kristofpetho or SelfKang do not meet the stability requirements and atm I have to pray to them to release something that will not annoy me with fc's of the apps I'm using.
Please, help if you can

Last I checked cdtdroid made a nice senseless version of pyramid3d
Melvin had made the beast Rom and senseless extreme. I believe they both used stock kernel. There is a video up on YouTube for the beast Rom. I think he stopped supporting them and went to the GS2 forums but they are pretty solid. I used senseless extreme for a while and it was great. But I had a sense calling again and am now on bulletproof.

Insert Coin new version 3.3.9 is with stock HTC kernel. Rom is pretty good.. Fast,smooth and stable..
Use the Revolutionary process (S-OFF, CWM & SU) on a Stock ROM.
Then use: ROM Cleaner - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217664
That way it's completely stock, just minus some stuff.

You need to either go Sense (cleaned in some manner) or go fully for AOSP. I know that ARHD has a Senseless cleaner, not used it personally as I went straight to CM7 when it was available.
Unfortunately, all "no sense" variations of HTC ROM still keep the icons at least. Seems like it is just impossible to get rid of them.
Thank you for your answers. I'll wait for the stable AOSP ROM or the new Nexus - what will be released first.
