Alternate IMEs for N1?

Does anyone know if the HTC IME will work on the N1? I prefer that to the default Android VK.

Yeah I'm already missing the HTC IME.

try and installing it from cyans rom thread??

I tried installing the HTC IME with no luck.

Actually, you're in luck. Because I believe cyanogen said the first thing he plans on doing with his nexus one is porting the htc ime.

Yeah I tried the HTC IME from the Hero 2.1 dump and it didnt work either.

I have the HTC_IME working fine on my phone, it's a little pixelated since this screen is bigger, but it works flawlessly

Cyanogen 1.6 worked for me but only looks good in landscape.. otherwise you can see pixels and no voice..

Swype works quite well with the N1

It's free, too. Only complains about resolution every so often.

Does anyone know where a system dump or specifically the htc_ime for the Bravo/Passion is? The N1 and thise share the same screen, so that dump should have the right file.
Would solve the issue of pixelation and the incorrect width in landscape...

HTC_IME for N1
Is there an APK for HTC_IME? I had it on my MT3G and it was great! no need to switch to get to numbers and symbols. just press and hold
thanks!

The one on the MT3g and G1 works, but it gets stretched and doesn't look as good.
Otherwise, it is ok.

And please keep it to the right section. Additionally, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612985 search is your friend.

Hmm it just makes moe sense being in the development section since it's being extracted from the Hero, and that requires a developer to extract it. So didn't bother looking in "Themes"

HTC Widgets

Hi,
My Nexus one arrived today (UK).
My mate has a Hero, and on his hero he has a set of widgets from HTC, e.g sense clock etc.. Just wondering if you can get them for the nexus one, ive seen a few imitations, but I would really like the real thing!

Real things require the Rosie framework, which is HTC specific. That's why the imitations exist.

Ok thanks for that, looks like its imitations for me then

hi, i just wanna ask... if you look for weather widgets - donate in the search of the market will you really get an application with that name? i actually have been cracking my head trying to look for 'weather widgets - donate' and 'beautiful widgets'. thanks

Does that mean that we won't get sense on the n1 until htc releases sense on a compatible piece of hardware like the bravo? Or do we just need someone to rip it out of the hero?

We probably won't get sense until an Android 2.1 compatible version comes out. I suppose it might technically be possible to use the current 1.6 Sense (I don't know, I'm not a developer, so don't quote me on that) but why would you wanna go from 2.1 back to 1.6?
It won't be long, though. Bravo supposedly releases in March, and Hero 2.1 update is supposed to be approx. the same time.

There's a 2.1 based Hero rom floating around, and the Espresso rom, so it's potentially possible, but neither of them is especially good. Once the Bravo comes out, the similar hardware should make for a quick (and almost perfect) SenseUI port I'd think. Look at the 32A Magic/Hero - same hardware, eventually got an official SenseUI, and it works very well.
That said, unless Espresso/Sense2 added a lot of new features, I'm not entirely sure of the appeal beyond just Rosie. 2.0/2.1 added most of the best features of Sense to stock Android.

i have all the settings widgets if you want.

Do they work OK on Nexus? I'd be interested in those. I don't like the Power bar because it takes up 4 spaces - really only want to toggle Wifi and Internet - Plus the individual ones can be put on different screens Are they .apk ?

[REQ] HTC Album port for Nexus One

I found that the Gallery3D loads photo extremely slow. Will anyone make a port of the HTCAlbum.apk for the nexus?

+1 to that.

I agree would the amazing to have
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

The same, cooliris loads waaaay to slow.

I'd be cool with that.

HTC apps can't be ported they require the sense UI to be running.

I think you will find that you can't port htc widgets, htc album is not dependent on sense, its just an app. I think it can be ported, i think its possible.

well all i can tell you is that people have been trying to port the HTC apps since the very first hero system dump, and the only one EVER ported was the camera.

Not true. stericson managed to port HTC Music back in the cupcake/donut days.

The point is, the photo album app is not reliant on sense. Widgets like friend steam are sense reliant. I think its technically possible.

How do you know? Have you ported it? Or did you read it somewhere?

people are arguing too early...people have already ported HTC apps to stock in the past, so it may be possible...why knock it until someone tries it?

Designz,
The guy is an obvious pleb, Flaming at the first oportunity, Its people like him we dont need on these forums, spoiling the productive atmosphere.....
I had a Desire previous to a Nexus One and Evil cooked up a barebone ROM with Sense/Rosie totally removed, and the gallery works completly independent of sense.
I will have a chat with evil, as he is the guy who has the quality to do this. Its also good that we have a 2.2 sense rom to play with, so the compatibility is there The app will most probably just have to be de-odexed....
I will look into it

What rom are you running? If your running a Sense rom you will still have the required libs for the gallery to run. No matter if you removed the SenseUI launcher.
EDIT: Didn't see your last post. So you are still running a Sense rom. All you have done is remove the Rosie, all the libs are still on your phone. But please prove me wrong...

Libs can be ported no?
I remember Evil also transferring the 3D gallery to the Desire... I hope it can be done. Its beyond my ability, but to a coder it could be childs play

Intersted in this as the cooliris gallery is annoying me.
Is the quality of pics better than the froyo gallery ?

Bumping this to see if there was any progress or answer ?

Bumping this, would be awesome to have HTC Album.

Call recording
Does anyone know if the two-way call recording is it possible with this device?
I'd like to buy one, but this is a cardinal question for me.
Thank you.

You must try the new ADW Launcher EX 1.3.0!You will suprise how fast and smooth it is even with live wallpapers!

My DS is blazingly fast and silky smooth with sense, no need for 3rd party launcher I'd buy nexus one if I didn't want sense

why no one starts to putting ScreenShots?

How to set the folder transparent when using ADW EX? I think the folder is so ugly. I like MIUI folders.

You can flash the new MDJ's kernel. This kernel provides two-way recording.

[Q] anyone know if there is a way to put sense 3 or 3.5 on the samsung roms?

i like everything about this phone but the ui

then you shouldn't have gotten the phone .. and this is a Q and should not be in the dev section

Then you should've gone HTC... Normally we're not like this. Post things in the right section and we're much nicer.

You did try the phone before you bought it, right?

1. Print this out.
2. Acquire scotch tape
3. Tape to phone
4. ?????
5. Profit!

well do you just want the launcher and widgets or the whole set of menus dialer and more?
you can use 3rd party apps like go contacts and launcher pro and go weather or beautiful widgets or fancy widget and replace the lock screen with a market ap but to port the ui takes work both ui's have some kernel integration and the phones use completely different hardware so it takes a lot of work from experienced developers and none here have any interest in that. best i can tell you is to buy a sensation or it's canadia equivelant if you are not satisfied with market app.
though i do like mikeys suggestion.

I prefer Mikey's suggestion, agree with Dani's and suggest you look at how the proposed Sense port went for the original sgs and then come back......

I used Sense with Cookie's improvments. The GO Launcher and ALL of its addons are actually far superior - then add 2 quicklauncher - and this phone DESTROYS sense. Just a bit more work to get all assembled - but its all there and WAY MORE.

Getting TRUE sense UI on samsung based rom is (impossible??). Porting them is a lot harder then anyone might think.

sense is very heavy. i remember even 2 years ago on windows mobile phones it consisted of thousands of files. and it seems to only have gotten more bloated. its definitely not impossible, but its so intertwined with the framework, it would take alot of work. htc is not going to make it easy.

yeah I didn't know.. I know they port all the time from htc to htc so didnt know how it was from htc to another model or another model to htc.. the sense 3.5 for my inspire was great but the phone button broke, so i got the samsung infuse until the next htc came out.. I do however like some of the feedback i got and with a few free apps from the market ive got it dialed in with the htc looks without the battery cpu and mem hog.. may just get the galaxy 2 and mod it the same way and see if i can hold off on the htc.. but i hear the htc holiday aka raider is going to be amazing
