KnockedSenseless [MOD Slide2G1] [Now Available] - G1 Android Development

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.

[HELP] [WIDGET] extract htc desire sense widgets

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
http://rapidshare.com/files/353766794/Desire-apk.zip
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....

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

whats this? what do i do with it? (is it a rom, do i flash it on top of my current rom?)
Well sese widgets would be awesome, thats a reason i want sense

Is this possible???? Someone want to help create this?

Just like the title explians,is this possible?? with JIT included. A Rom based of Fresh Toast 1.1 with no sense and JIT enabled. I really liked darchdroid AOSP rom alot it was very quick but what I didnt like was the MMS wouldnt download within the handcent app.

yeh that would be easy. i used sense mainly for the twitter widget. but now that twitter has their own app i will use it. ill put one together with jit pre-enable. idk when though, someone will prolly beat me to it
lol okay thanx!! I wish i knew a little more about putting together a ROM, but I really like AOSP for the reason of no sense!! and darchdroid seemed to work pretty good and I switched from that one because no one could figure out why you couldnt open a MMS within a text in handcent or the stock messaging app it would only say dowloading..
This is exactly what I'm running right now.
I don't like the full AOSP look, but wanted to step away from Rosie.
Do you want FULL AOSP? Or still have some of the HTC apps (people, dialer, etc)
I'm working on a "tutorial" if you will of what to remove, add, configure to get rid of sense, and I'm slowly changing more and more.
I'd say start with downloading Helix (1 not 2) and use that as your launcher, and start deleting some HTC apps in /system/app.
I could make an update .zip that would delete all the apps and rosie for jit. Install helix and put the jit files on your sdcard for you. You would have to after flashing the update type a few commands in adb shell.
I dont know how to set permissions of a file when flashing.
Last time I made a rom without rosie, with helix, and Jit enabled. It would get stuck on boot, but if removed jit files it would start up.

hey, there's a theme out there for cyanogenmod 5.0.7 (darchdroid 2.5.1.1) that gives you a sensui look. I'll link you to it if you want

(Theme) Vanilla Android AOSP Theme Version 2!!! for Sense UI

NEW Version 2!!!
{Please Vote to Front Page if you like this so others can enjoy, Somtimes my themes are a little tough to find}
Updated:
1. Added AOSP icons... camera, browser, ect.
2. Added my custom version of 4G Toggle for people that don't use Sense.(I made it to look like the Sense UI version of 4G toggle widget.)
3. Added more AOSP notification icons (should be complete now.)
4. New Updated Lockscreen!
5. New Updated Rosie Bar.(made apps, and add button invisible via request)
6. Changed analog clock widget to look like newest Froyo version.
7. Added Stock Nexus One boot animation!
[/B]This is a new theme I made for people that love Sense UI but think the Vanilla Android looks better. The screen shots are all of Sense UI. This is Made to work with Fresh Rom but will likely work with a few others. Please be sure and Nandroid before flashing this. If you don't like the HTC Lock Screen you can allways uninstall it with Titanium Backup and reboot your phone, and then you will have your Vanilla Android Lockscreen (You can also uninstall HTC Sense this way, be carefull what ever you do!). I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do, I worked really hard on this.

Excellent !
Sweet, I like AOSP UI better. Good work OP!
Looks good, thanks for the contribution.
hey i was wondering if there is a way to do this without the lockscreen mod that you specifically have. meaning is there a way to have the blackbar mod?
hahahaha i didnt even realize you were the author of the WhiteSenseUi-aosp theme, i asked the same question on that thread and i did get some pretty useful suggestions, but was unsuccessful of executing them. is there any possible way that you can possible fix the lock-screen for me? i would be ever so grateful.
WoW This Is Awesome!! I Can Use Sense Widgets And Still Have A Stock Android Look And Feel To My Phone!! Thanks For Sharing.. AnyWay That You Can AlSo Post The Beach WallPaper That You're Using Please?! Thanks Again..
This Is Nice!! EveryOne That Has Seen My Phone With This Loves It!! Keep Up The Good Work..
Do I have to be rooted to install this?? I only really want the bottom where the phone icon is, but I can't figure out how to do that can somebody help?
I found this theme searching and I love it! I really enjoy keeping sense stuff like the 7 windows, and the widgets but I actually like the look of vanilla android
One thing I did notice is when you are removing an icon from the desktop the 'remove' icon at the bottom is overlaid the phone icon.
Not too sure if that is fixable, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
Other than that good work on this theme! I'm enjoying it on my rooted/stock ROM
Great work, this is making me consider going back to sense. Any future plans to include ASOP Icons, phone dialer skin, etc.?

Yes you have to be rooted and nand unlocked. Pretty much any modifications you see on this forum must have that functionality
Tried the red theme with calk 1.1 and it works (i like it a lot)- except the new gmail (2.2.1 i think) FC's over and over.. I'm going to load my nandroid backup which has calk 1.1 and the older version of gmail, then will reinstall this theme to see if it is an incompatability with calk 1.1 or if it truly is the new gmail

I had the FC with gmail on my stock deox rooted ROM, I went to the application settings, cleared the cache and data. After that no more FCs (even after reboot!)

This is the first theme I ever installed. It worked great on the newest Fresh and it looks pretty sweet! I also had the Gmail force close thing going on but wiping the cache and data for it in the application manager cleared that up!
does this theme the app drawer for the 3d effect
Thanks for doing this! I was looking around for something like this because I was having a difficult time getting it to work on my own.
Any confirmation that this runs on Fresh 3.1.0.2?

[ROM][Sense][13/03] Mini-Sense 1.0 - FITS IN 180MB HBOOT / 213MB FREE ON DATA

[size=+2]MINI-SENSE[/size]​
Mini-Senseless is a stripped down version of the excellent teppic74 ROM. It fits the "Bravo Sense" AlphaRev partition which gives me 213MB free on data after install, which is plenty enough for me. I've been using this ROM for several days now and haven't had any problems at all. The battery life was also very good.
This ROM was made for my personal use only but I decided to share it because someone else could also find it useful.
Enjoy
Highlights:
Exactly the same as teppic74's ROM v3.1, only lots of applications removed
Fits in 180MB system partition
213MB free on data
Most of the removed applications available on market
Good battery life
What has been changed:
Removed Rosie launcher and all Sense widgets
Removed most of the social apps - Facebook, Peep, FriendStream, etc
Removed all Google apps that are available on the Market - Gmail, YouTube, Maps, etc
Removed the RSS reader
Removed the HTC keyboard
Added Zeam as the default launcher, install another launcher if needed
Added the standard Froyo keyboard
... that's it, I think
Download:
Mini-Sense v1.0 (mirror)
Installation:
Flash "Bravo Sense" HBOOT partition. Instructions are found at the AlphaRev site.
Flash the .zip file from recovery. Erase /data and /cache partitions.
(optional) Flash this addon (mirror) to enable trackball to wake the phone
(optional) Install any of these teppic74 addons: (HIGH) POWERSAVING MODPACK, MINOR TWEAKS, RESTORE BOOTSOUND, A2SD+, SD READAHEAD
Warning:
Use at your own risk!
Do a nandroid backup first!
Do NOT install any addons that add files to /system (very little free space there)
Credits:
teppic74 - for making such a wonderful ROM
tnx for this ROM
I like newest things ....
testing it right now

Read the post before asking a stupid question
one small question: what brings an Sense ROM without the Sense "goodness" (Widgets, Rosie usw.)? There are enough "stock" Andoid ROMs!?
it gives you the other htc functionalities, such as linking contacts to fb accounts n pictures which is quite lacking on AOSP, if you miss the widgets so bad try LauncherPro, or stick to sense...
Is the linking funktion not a part of Friedstream?
Or is the Facebook provider a seperate part?
Has nothing to do with friendstream, its an HTC feature...
Sent from my HTC Desire
Its an HTC feature but it is also built into stock. The difference is that it isn't so aesthetically pleasing on stock.
But I think I agree with the above. I love the idea of a mini sense rom, but the Widgets are some of the best features of sense. Without them I fail to see the point in sense over stock? Plus, surely our memory will just go down again to stock once I install the Google apps I need which is pretty much all of them?
Great idea though

I had something like this on my to do list for a while before I was distracted by other things.
I really appreciate this here, thank you.

Now that is just perfect, I don't particularly like the sense launcher, so I tried using AOSP roms. I liked the oxygen rom since it's blazingly fast, it does have some issues that I can work around, but I cannot LIVE without the "People" app.
Now I realize why it's called one of the 7 wonders of the new smartphone apps
Sounds good. Been looking for something like this since Supervillain stopped being updated. I've been using Sense for the last few weeks so will see if i can switch over again. New memory card arriving this week so will try it out then.
Well, there are certain benefits even if you have widgets stripped off from a Sense ROM. For example:
- Stability! - all latest stock ROMs have different issues (light sensor, 2 sec delay, USB speed, reboots once in a while, etc)
- Dialer / People are more advanced than stock
- Little HTC improvements, like the dialog when USB is connected
- HTC lock screen, which I find more pleasant to use
- Camera app is better
- Album app is better than Gallery
- ... lots of other small things
I realize most bullets from the list above are a matter of personal preference, that is why I have stated in my first post that this ROM is made to suit my needs. If someone else finds it useful - I'd be glad to hear that... just take it as it is
Cheers
so this is a sense rom with some of the best parts of sense ripped out?
Thanx alot!! i appreciate the effort. One slight concern how is the battery life when compared to gingerbread roms as i am getting very good battery life on cm7.

I've been using this ROM for over a week now. Before that I was on Redux and Oxygen for several weeks. I would say the battery life is comparable. This is my opinion of course, your mileage may vary.

Not to me. I don't use Sense launcher, widgets, RSS, Peep or FriendStream. Everything else (Sense related) is included in the ROM (or could be installed later). If you define these as "the best parts of sense" then you'd better take a look at some of the other Sense ROMs available.
I want to go back on what I originally said. I have to say, I think the idea in principal is great - I just feel too many things have been cut out for my liking. I wonder, since you say you deleted all HTC widgets, does this mean you have removed the standard htc flip clock with the weather + weather animations? They are possibly my favourite sense features...? I would certainly give it a go if they were still in it, or would it be easy to add them back in?
Also, I currently use A2SD and never fill it. Would the extra 100mb or so be enough for me to make the jump onto this non a2sd rom?
One more question, can the mods from teppic74 rom thread mentioned in the first post also be applied to this rom? I would like to try some of the addons if yes. Btw the rom feels great so far. Thanx
Is'ent thos ROM possible without S-Off? cant get it to work, the S-Off that is...

[ROM] 10/28 MikG 2.58 Senseless, and Synergy rls1 senseless, The Classic V0.0.3

OK server is back up.
Click here for all downloads, present and past
All previous versions are again available.
::NOTE ON ALL LOCKSCREEN INCLUDED VERSIONS::
The lockscreen-included versions of the MikG roms 2.57 and beyond have had several apk's left intact to maintain the ability to change the lockscreen shortcuts and style. After you have customized the Lockscreen to your liking you may use a root explorer type app and remove those apk's. Or you can use titanium backup and freeze them so that in the future if you wish to change the lockscreen again you can un-freeze them. Either way you choose to do it, here are the two apk's.
Rosie.apk/odex (will be called "sense" in titanium Backup)

:: DESCRIPTION OF WHAT THESE ROMS ARE:::
These are all senseless roms, Will have versions with and without the Lockscreens eventually. They maintain all the sense programs except for rosie and it's widgets and customization utilities. In terms of launchers, rosie is very large. Just for ease of explaination purposes, here is a comparison *of course ram usage is more important than this, but you will get the point and I can't quote amounts of free ram because of different AMM settings and not having an evo myself anyways*
Synergy RLS1 Original download Size::: 297MB
Synergy RLS1 Senseless ::: 254MB
Synergy RLS1 Senseless NO HTC Lockscreen::: 208MB
So you get to drop 43MB by getting rid of rosie and it's widgets and another 46MB by getting rid of the Lockscreen and all the leftover stuff that can then be removed by having the lockscreen and rosie gone. And remember these include GoLauncher already LOL. You get the point.
It turns out making everything perform smoother and faster, and you get to use whatever launcher you prefer without rosie and garbage running in the background.
HTC versions of SMS, Email, Contacts, Dialer, etc are left there because they really work well together.
:: BUGS ::
None for any of the current roms, please let me know what you find.
::CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE!::
All credit goes to the original creators, Aamikam, etc. You can click my ads on the download page for my work, but if you really want to donate to someone, send some cash their way.

Great idea I was gonna do this myself but haven't had time...senseless Rom seem to save battery life on gingerbread sense roms. By the way is there a way u can just include the 3.0 message apk also .

If you are wanting a Senseless Rom why not just use an Asop or CM Rom? You can still add Go launcher or LPP or ADW launchers and Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets. As of now with ASOP with gingerbread 2.3.4 you don't have all the camera or gps issues you have with Sense 3.0. And most sense ports now are using a mix of the older sense's (1.0-2.0 and 2.1).

I also run a "rosieless" sense rom. I don't use the Rosie launcher or the widgets. I DO enjoy all of the Sense applications a lot better than aosp apps. Sense also has a much tighter integration with its different apps, Facebook, etc. The dialer looks up names as you dial, aosp does not do that. The messaging and mail apps are superior than aosp imho. All of the notifications on the lock screen I enjoy more. I can go on and on. Just because you don't use the Rosie launcher doesn't mean its aosp, far from it.

Yes this I know. I have been around long enough with these devices to know that not running the rosie launcher does not make it ASOP. I have run just about every os that is out there. Including using my old TP2 in dual boot mode when they first started doing that.
I have run my Evo with no sense last year, so this is no new concept to most of us. Calkulin made an app last year to remove the sense apps in one shot if you did not want to use all the bloat.

CM mods are great. I prefer it as my choice for AOSP roms, but I would still prefer a senseless rom. The only things I think CM mods have as an edge to sensless roms are the option to unlock your phone without pressing the "ok" button, and better battery life.
Looking forward to this rom. If you manage to keep it sensless but keep the 3.0 lockscreen, that would be pretty impressive!
ASOP roms have gps issues, I did not find a permanent solution for it in any forum.
If you want a 100% working perfect rom you can try Ginger-AleV2 or MikG 0.51, both are Android 2.3.3 Sense 2.1 with latest 2.3.4 gtalk video. I flashed Ginger-AleV2, then got GoLauncherEx from Market (free).

As of now with ASOP with gingerbread 2.3.4 you don't have all the camera or gps issues you have with Sense 3.0. And most sense ports now are using a mix of the older sense's (1.0-2.0 and 2.1).

Camera works better on this rom than on AOSP roms, plus you get 720p recording back. And it runs smooth enough to actually use 720p recording.
There is a noticeable screen smoothness to htc stock kernels that I can't get with any aosp rom. If you use them side by side, even with evodeck's or cyanogen's latest you can see that the HTC builds just look smoother.
and you can really notice this in games. I play a lot of games, not the really high end hard for our phones to play type of games (well a few of them) but even in ****in Chuzzle you notice a huge difference LOL.
Normally with All the Sense **** eating up all the resources the games on HTC builds don't run very well, but when you slim down to an easier to run launcher and everything they run so damn purdy.
GPS is perfect
##codes work
tight program integration like mentioned with stock dialer, facebook, twitter, etc.
Rosieless sense-based I think is the perfect way to go. You get all the performance of AOSP without any of the downsides. Working on fixing everything and getting this up, I fell asleep last night.
The HTC Facebook I accidentally took out and the MMS are going to be back in this one
HTC Facebook rocks. No ****ty facebook program, just contact sync WOOT. haha. I can't stand the facebook program. Full desktop version of the website in Dolphin Browser 5.0b2 HD is the way to go.
So with the next"release" or whatever, will you have the text messaging apk back?
Excited to try this out!

hey someone remembered me LOL Sweeeet.
I want all of XDA to use that ftp as a mirror if they want to. But I don't want to create a post and get flamed by people like:
Oh you think you are cool cuz you pay for a ****ty little server, we don't want to use your mirror you weirdo.
People get so harsh on here sometimes I could see something weird like that happening lol.
It says sense 3.0 lock screen but where can I update it? The sense 3.0 has the short cuts and different typed, I can't go into personalize and change any of that..

Skydeaner..quick question...if I want to give this a go and I am using Vaelek's latest (been for Month's now) with a2sd already set up...how would I go about flashing this ROM..I used to flash like crazy till Val's ROM and now I do not know what to do (as far as wiping the phone--do I just wipe data, cache and dalvik, or do I have to also wipe ext's) since I am using a2sd..
p.s. I am using AmonRa 2.3...thanks
Yeah, im pretty sure wipe sd-ext is required,but don't take my word for it.
@skydeaner, yeah thanks for the hosting. Thanks for this senseless rom. Probably gonna check it out, just first gonna find screens of what go launcher is like. I usually use adw and LP. Havebt seen go.
At selders59, senseless is a million miles from aosp and cannot be compared.
@ all. Cheesynuts just dropped link for official evo3d from 911htc. Woohoo

Curious to try this but would like to when it's been updated with the above. Looks promising, thanks for doing this! XDA rocks......
Cool - I like this, feels like a hybrid. For those who have tried AOSP roms, this looks like AOSP with better features from sense, like the weather widget, notification icons, contacts & phone dialer app, and of course the sense 3.0 lockscreen. I think the contacts and dialer apps in AOSP needs a lot of improvement, just my opinion. Thanks Skydeaner.
