Hello all,
I have been searching for information on this for days and haven't been able to locate any help. I spend days searching forums before asking.
I have been bouncing between the Modaco r21 desire rom and the enomther's rom v-1.8.1 and love them both. What i am looking for is a way to use the contacts and/or calendar widgets from Modaco's desire rom on the enom 1.8.1. is this at all possible? or is the framework so different and complex? If anyone can help i would appreciate it.

Requires the HTC custom, closed source framework. You didn't search very well as we've been answering this question since 2009 when Sense premiered on the Hero.
yeah, like uberingram just said. Sense UI widgets can't be used on anything other than sence roms. It requires extra parts that can't be duplicated in any other rom.
If you want sense widgets, you gotta go to a sense rom.
However, both the contacts and callender widgets have been replicated by widgets that are availible for the market.

someone could extract the widgets and the music player of
rom MODACO HTC SENSE DESIRE, for use in the nexus one with the
cyano rom? or if I could tell what files are what I
be drawn?
I'm interested in following widgets and app
1. settings
2. contact
3. weather
4. twitter
5. people
6. messages
7. mail
8. stream friend
9. music
10. clock
11. bookmarks
12. calendar
Nearly all htc sense widgets , if I am right in
the desire to have the same resolution of the nexus, these widgets should
operate in the nexus one as does the htc_IME or me
right?
maybe someone could extract these widgets and app, or tell me that
are files that I have to extract the rom
greetings and thanks in advance
This is an age old topic for any sense/hero ROM. HTC widgets only work on HTC's framework so you can't just use their widgets on any ROM.
I seen a long time ago someone mentioned that there is a wrapper around the widgets and possibly there might be a way to remove the wrapper to make it work on different builds but dont know if its true or how hard

Somebody test out the widget files? I don't have rapidshare.
Doubt the widgets will work with cyanogen's mod but keeping my fingers crossed....

This would be awesom...
If you want Sense widgets you need a Sense ROM.
There are plenty of imitations going around but nothing beats the real thing.

mayb he wants only some of the features of sense..
on a side note, is there an apk pack for froyo since froyo for evo 4g is out already?
Check out Launcher Pro Plus, the bookmarks, calander & people widgets work & function just like the sense ones! There are more coming to such as clock, weather, messages, friend stream

I want to know how I can install a few apps that are from the HTC DESIRE to our nexus.
I have the APK's but when I use root explorer or astro I get a DID NOT INSTALL.
I want to install:
- HTCMUSIC (SWEET PLAYER!)
- HTCNAVIPANEL
- HTCSTREAMPLAYER
And a few others.
I tried adding them to the nexus app update zip that installs fine after I install a bare rom. But it will not work that way.
Any suggestions? I REALLY want these apps on my nexus!
get the Paul's (Modaco) Desire ROM for the Nexus... as far as I know, only a few apps work without the Rosie (HTC Sense) framework
Search Feature, does wonders...
You can't just drop Sense UI APK's into a stock ROM and expect it to work, the Sense Framework is not there and there is really no point in porting it because of the work involved.
Search... It Helps...

No DUH search helps and I DID search just so I don't have to read comments like yours to do a search. What am I suppose to search for that will give me the answer you just did? No need to answer. Most people are not so "informed" as you or have the knowledge to kow what to search for. So why not just relax and take a humble pill and help out nicely!

DUH, if you searched you would not that. You need to learn how to search better. Best bet is to just use one of the roms that are already HTC Roms.
It's not hard to learn how to search for what you really want to look for. If you think it's hard then maybe you should've bought an iphone.

I had the desire rom but it has issues. I make calls and after the call the phone locks up and wont turn the screen on. Sometimes I'm in the email app and it closes on its own. But the htcmusic and is nice so I just wanted to install a few of the desire apps. I did get the desire keyboard working so that was nice.

Not to sound flamish but if you did search you would of seen several threads asking for the same thing, (How can I port the music app/weather/etc, and given the same answers. Most of the HTC apps require the Sense framework. It would be a ton of work to port the framework over to a non-Sense rom. One could say it would be........nonsense to try <insert dr evil laugh>. If you dont like the launcher or widgets, what you can do is install the Sense rom and then change the Rosie Launcher to the stock one and also switch out the apps you are having problems with. For the most part non-Scense apps will run on Sense but not vice versa.
@JasjarMan, just to make things clear... Sense UI is an OEM extension to the Android framework by HTC. It has several components not available in the stock Android framework. Sense UI framework is proprietary and porting the framework would be very difficult (but not impossible) considering it's not open source.
As @MonkySlap said, most of the stock Android applications and components would work on the HTC Desire ROM port considering the fact that beneath the HTC framework lies the stock Android framework.
And yes, there are tonnes of threads where this question has been answered before.
That said, there is a port of the old HTC music application (not the Desire 2.1 application) which works on non-Sense ROMs... something a little search would retrieve... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651889&highlight=HTC+music+app
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?
dudes and dudettes,
I tried out one of the Sense ICS ROMS (ARHD 5.0.2) and while aspects of it were great, at the moment (due to kernel development) it's a lot slower than the Gingerbread ROMs available.
However, I really loved the HTC ICS "Notes" and "Tasks" apps.
My questions,
1. Is it possible to run these apps on Gingerbread? Obviously the widgets couldn't really be integrated with a current ROM without recooking the whole thing, but just being able to use the apps would be great. Could someone provide the APKs if it is possible?
2. If that won't work, could somebody strip the icons from the apks for me? I love them and I'd like to use them for my note and to do apps.
Thanks for reading,
zuka
They work on Sense Gingerbread ROMs, yes.
I've installed both on a Gingerbread Sense 3.0 ROM and they both force close. Am I doing something wrong?
I should have clarified, Sense 3.5 ROMs have them.
Hey guys, I've been away from Sensation development for a while so I'm not that current on what ROMs are available.
Basically, I've been using AOSP for a while and it's so much better at multitasking/fluidity that I don't really want to go back to Sense 3.6 or 4. However, I just don't think there's an app available that beats HTC's clock and weather functions - they really are amazing. I don't want or need access to Sense widgets, just the apps would be fine.
Is there any way to get Sense 3.6 or 4's clock and weather on a stock ICS Rom? I know it's not as simple as just chucking an apk on there because they come with additional services and libraries, so has any dev done something similar I might be able to have a look at?
Thanks for reading, I'd appreciate any advice or replies
Cheers!
