KnockedSenseless [MOD Slide2G1] [Now Available]

New mod for King's Slide2G1 Rom. Took out all the fluff and extraneous libs to fit framework on system partition once again. The idea behind this rom is to keep the good things about Sense (themed consistent apps, dialer, keyboard), and getting rid of the slow (Rosie, widgets, flash).
HTC Apps present:
Dialer
Contacts
Calendar
Browser
Weather
Peep
Facebook
Notification Bar launcher
ADW is the launcher of choice (8.8),
recommend "fancy widget" if you want an HTC themed clock.
To flash, all you need is:
Wipe, Clear Cache, Clear Dalvik, Repair ext.
You shouldn't need as big of a swap as King recommends (160mB), but I haven't tested that.
A2SD and Swap are automatic if partitions are available. In fact, /system/app is placed on ext, so make sure it exists.
Dexopt takes a while on first load, so be patient.
As for social, flickr, facebook, and twitter are still on here, however HTC Facebook doesn't seem to want to sync with contacts.
Like all Sense roms, BT does not work.
Modded HTC_IME provided by jonas.
Thanks to King Klick for his great rom.

UPDATE : fixed frienstream and added mymodes

So this is a sense rom without... sense essentially?

It don't make sense not to have sense in a rom that is sense, does that make sense?

Sensical or not, I kind of like the sound of this little rom. Let's see what comes tomorrow, and I'll gladly give it a try. Thanks in advanced, dev!

i usually do this with all my sense roms, lol i love the xtra features htc puts in the sense builds, im glad ur doing this show them wat sense is like with adw launcher lol

which honestly is not a bad Idea, the Slide is a recent build, basically s smooth 2.1 ROM. It would be nice if someone actually included some live wallpapers. I guess its like being able to shut sense off like in the latest Legend and Desire roms. That feature has never worked for us though, making a Sense ROM into a default vanilla 2.1 ROM

Link updated in first post. Let me know how it works.

Wow i'm really impressed at how stripped down this is! i wonder if you can just push rosie.apk in and it'll work?

I find this to be a great idea. Keep it up!

Would it be at all possible to post another download link,
My work computer and 4shared don't get along.

So why wouldn't u run cm or any other of the other 2.1 roms out there and just download and install the HTC IME? This is senseless..... in more than 1 way.

This comes with all the HTC apps:
Weather,
Contacts,
Dialer,
Browser,
Twitter,
Facebook
Which all look much better than the stock android apps. Calendar or Dialer itself is enough for me to want to do this.

Adding Rosie might work, however all the add program functionality and widget DL manager is removed, so you might not be able to do much in the way of widgets, which is probably the reason you want Rosie.

This is coming from King's Slide2G1 version 1.2, with all the fixes associated with it. Its been 7 iterations since I came up with the idea.

I must say its fast as normal cm 2.1 Good job

Sense like calender widget

I just moved from the HTC Eris(Hero) to a Motorola Droid 2 and so far I am liking it, but i am missing Sense calendar widget. Is there anything in market or something an XDA dev created that is similar to it? Or is there some how a way to get it working on the D2 with out Sense, which I hear because of the locked boot-loader is not possible at the moment. Thank you.

Launcher Pro Plus has a built in calendar widget that looks very good and similiar to the sense calendar.

No, it can't be ported because Sense is closed source and widgets rely too heavily on the sense framework. I use pure calendar grid for this function.

I prefer not to use another launcher as I am enjoying stock Android right now(a difference change from sense which I really like). I will take a look at pure widget.
BTW they were able to get most of sense on the original Droid/milestone because the boot loader was not locked. Or on the G1, G2, and other HTC device that didn't natively come with sense. As long as you have access to the framework and bootloader I think you can use a sense based rom.

For what it's worth LauncherPro is based on the stock launcher, and is almost the same in terms of looks.. just added smoothness and functionality like said widgets, resizing, built-in notification dock, etc.. you could even put the Froyo dock background on it and it would look just like the stock Android. Just saying in case you think it will look all themed-out..

Yes but you are not able to use the widgets without using the sense launcher... it's as easy as that

I will demo both and see what I like better. I just assumed that pro meant paid version.
Edit: I guess if I want the calender widget I have to go with the paid plus version. I wish I could demo the Plus before I make a decision.

I have tried a few calendar Widgets including the one from launcher pro and Calendar Pad, but found that Jorte is the best one for me and my wife. Many options from sizes to colors. Extremely customizeable.
Look up Jorte in the marketplace, plus it's free

I use jorte. I think youll like it, http://androinica.com/2010/04/16/jorte-is-a-promising-android-calendar-replacement-app-reviews/

That doesn't look like a bad option either. Hmmmm.

HTC Wigets

I am interested in putting together a list of ALL official HTC widgets, either stock widgets found on different HTC devices as well as the "additional" widgets no one can seem to download.
I think this tread should be sticky-ed and should be made the HTC widgets archive thread.
Why? because I am sure most will agree that the HTC widgets are the best widgets for Android but there are so many out there and putting them all in one place for HTC device owners to download and enjoy just makes sense (get it? like HTC Sense? hahaha). For example, I have a myTouch 3G Slide which has some cool widgets on it and my friend just got a Droid Incredible with has some awesome widgets that I don't have and want, this would be a great place to post them.
Anyways, if you have a rooted HTC device or have any HTC widgets post them here. Extracting widgets from HTC roms is also a good way to get them.

+1 for this idea...

for me the best player for android is Winamp, I can even sync with my music from pc

A list of available widgets would be awesome. I think that's one of the reasons I go from ROM to ROM. Just want something fresh and better looking.

[REQ] HTC Sense 3.5 - new feautures (Notes, Tasks, FB Chat) for Sense 3.0 & 2.1

Hello everyone.
I've been playing with new HTC Sense 3.5 for some while now (RCMix3d rom for DHD) and I personally love some of the new apps made by HTC. Since i'm more into 3.0 at the moment, i have been trying to port some new apps to HTC Sense 3.0 or even 2.1 so more people could use them.
Since im no pro in dev. those apps force closed whatever i did. I couldn't get them to work properly. I'm talking about new Notes, Tasks, Fb Chat apps and widgets.
Youtube Video here (0:44 for those apps):

Thank you for your time guys!

i tried this also yesterday. i can see icon on app drawer but it doesn't work. force close issue.

yeah, i have no idea what's causing the problem :s
its clearly not compatible with 3.0, needs some changes imo
any1 know whats causing that issue?

Working updates for 3.5 coming shortly then porting to 3 will be easy... Let's gets the basics right first

Your problem is you have to use the framework.apks and other apks they are dependant on.... So it will prob not be possible since they changed alot of things.... If you do use framework_res and com.HTC.resources from these roms on the old roms it will prob cause more harm than its worth

So there is a great possibility that those apps won't ever get ported to 2.1 or 3.0 unless framework could be ported too? is it even possible?

framework-hacking is possible ! so it is not impossible !

HTC Facebook chat App+Widget
Okay, i've found one of those apps above.
Its FB Chat, taken out from HTC Salsa.
XDA TOPIC LINK

It is possible but it take a fair bit of coding if you are to do it correctly

I already merged all changes from 3.5 com.htc.resources and Rosie in respective 3.0 apk`s and compiled 3.5 apk´s against new merged com.htc.resources. New framework compiled and works fine, still no success. Troubleshooting is getting harder, since the 3.5 apk`s are also pulling from shared m.10 files and these are impossible to merge with the current tools. So that might be tougher, then 3.0 mods to 2.1, where we could merge all needed resources in apk`s, jars and add missing libs (which was tough enough - kudos to seo).

I guess adding the sense style launcher to 3.5 would be less of a cruisade

hmm yea, what about that sense 3.0 launcher merging with 3.5 one? or basicly just making a theme with 3.0 dock could work also..
but first sense 3.5 needs to have better base for doing that imo
also, those notes and tasks are completely new or have the apps been seen anywhere else? Since HTC Status already got the "new" fb chat intergration..
PS: by the way, i heard somewhere that sense 3.5 UI is being accelerated by GPU? Is it true? And if yes, can this be done to 3.0 too?

this is for the FB chat and it works on desire hd

Yes, this is the one ported from the HTC Status, but the widget isn't properly resized since it was ported for the Evo 3D.

some news?

[Q] has any one ever considered........

well I have tried every launcher on the Android market and found non to my taste..... I like the Sense that comes stock on the Inspire 4g, "BUT" as I was playing around with the Launcher Pro, I really like the "Dock," "Dock background" and the "Transition Effect" the visual effect used when switching between home screens. Is there anyway I can get those just mentioned on to my HTC Sense 2.1? the only reason I don't like Launcher pro is because it does not have alot of widgets like HTC Sense does, any help????? thanks in Advance.

call up HTC. Other than that, you cant get a personalized launcher to that specifics unless you make one yourself. And with sense 4.0 working its way out, you wont see as much development for older sense versions. and each launcher can have tons of widgets, just the main ones dont come with a lot of built in. go and download whatever widgets you want and you can experience the same as sense.

Thank you for your response, but I have finally customized Launcher pro for my needs by keeping it down to 3 screens and utilizing those app and widgets that I use on a daily basis, works out very well.

If you want widgets like sense then try Android Pro widgets. Not free but do a great job of replacing the sense widgets.

If you want a dock and the actual sense widgets then here's a link to the htc one ics/sense 4 rom
