Very First Sense Rom For The G2X.

Am i the only one that would like to see a sense rom on our G2x? I think it would look pretty sick. I know we are early in the development stages, but do you guys think we will get one? If so what port or sense like rom would you LOVE to see on this device.

Sense was cool for a few days for me but i don't prefer it. Now i like the pure androidness But the g2x is pretty popular so i'm sure we'll have a sense rom.

There is a sense launcher

AFAIK Sense is built specifically for HTC hardware specs and there is no source code for it so porting it over would be extremely hard.

Just ordered the G2x , switching from blackberry
Hi,
I had enough of blackberry and enough of AT&T so im switching to Android . Soooo.. What is Sense rom and touchwiz?

Sense is the custom interface HTC puts on all their phones. Touchwiz is Samsungs UI. They do it to try and set their phones apart from one another in a market full of android phones. You dont have to use them though if you dont like them.

I'm pretty sure you can put the TouchWiz Launcher on any phone. I'm almost positive that I had installed it on my Nexus One but removed that crap within seconds.
I know for a fact I installed LG's launcher too.
Most of that stuff isn't anything but a bunch of fluff. While I prefer Stock, I do know that Sense is actually built into the rom more ways then one and you have to have the whole rom built around it.

Didn't they release a sense sdk and make it open source? Or did they just give devs tools/apis to develop for it?

i think they jsut gave out an sdk to make apps that will only work on sense devices.
if you like sense try out go launcher. it has much of what sense does without the lag. the weather app and live wallpaper is as awesome as sense(maybe not as the new weather animations) dont know but they are pretty good.
kinda a mix betwen muiu/apple and sense. its a really good launcher and has all accompaning apps to go with it.

Not another freaking thread about sense rom's... (trolling moment)

Pretty much what Esteway said, it's a Pre Alpha, but he managed to get Sense to boot which is a feat in itself so hopefully with this project the sky can be the limit.

You don't even know how happy this makes me :')
If someone gets this to work fully ill be so happy. Sense looks way nicer on the epic, and id much rather see sense 2.0 than sense 3.0 (mainly because its smoother.)
I came from and Evo so that's why this excites me so much.

Thank you so much ahmgsk. Is the miui build froyo or gingerbread?

Honestly, the Sense versions aren't that different. Main difference= Lockscreen which you can download from market as Agile Lock and also the carousel. I would like Sense 3.0, but it is exciting that they have 2.1 nevertheless.

Sense 3.0 lockscreen anybody....
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Agile lock cannot compare at all to the sense 3.0 lockscreen. The real sense 3.0 lockscreen has many integrated features like notification popups and a very nice music player in the normal one, and seperate ones for weather and facebook integration. Its the main reason I want sense on my epic. Also thanks to the developer, making me have good hopes for my phone. Not regretting picking the epic over the evo now. Hopefully in a few months we can have a fully working rom.

Yeah, this ROM looks pretty promising, I cant wait till all the bugs and kinks get worked out, sense on the epic would be pretty swell!!

With two roms, which do you prefer between the two?

The edited doubleshot mod, or CK23's Tasteless venom? Which one do you recommend as of currently?

they both about the same really, nice job to both dev who put their effort in, venom rom is without sense in it he sub with launcher pro ex i think.... and the other rom still has the sense stuff, but u can put launcher pro ex on it from market, so its really up to u my friend

That depends on what you want. CK23's venom ROM removes Sense and gives you a more bare-bones Android experience while undead's edited ROM is more of a stock Sense feel with bloat removed. Both show noticeable improvement over stock. What I'd REALLY love is a stock Sense 3.0 - not the doubleshot version - like from the sensation, with the customizable lockscreen and other goodies. I think with time everything will become available. I was just in the Sensation forums doing some poking around and they've got a lot of options now that their phone has been out for several months!

Interesting. Whats the best step by step method to install Tasteless venom?

I will be making a senseless version. It will be totally different then mine or vemons.

You'll be fine, I average flashing about a dozen CWM recoveries a day, some days more. It's the only way to get a cold start on the GPS for sure in the same location over and over again while keeping the phone as close to stock as possible. That doesn't count straight up factory resets, either. Trying to make my gps research work for as many people as possible, not just those of us who rooted.
Undeadk9, good job kicking this stuff out there for people to play with.

Oh there are three roms now. my nonsense version is out.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium

I am switching from tasteless venom to your .5 nonsense rom now.

[Q] roms??

whats is the bestest rom for the g2x besides cm7, i hate their roms

I find myself being annoyed by your post... Decide for your self. Sack up and flash something! If you don't like it flash something else.
What are you looking for in a rom? Speed? Stability? Peggle? LG camera? HBO2go?
There is give and take in all the roms. I like cm7 but I like the LG camera. Can't have both right now, so I stick with speed and stability and run cm nightlies most of the time... tried them all at one time or another...
I gotta know... What do you hate about cm7?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

ive had cm7 for my hd2, my vibrant and im just board and tired of it, its ok though i got the eagles blood and it clockes was faster that cm7!

Lets start with this... why so you hate cm7 ROM? This way we can make better recommendations, as well as flame you, give you no-homo as well as homo love and know more about your usage preferences.

If you're bored and want something that feels completely different try MIUI. Its based on cm7 but looks and operates MUCH differently.

MIUI = My Android thinks it's an iPhone.
I personally don't like the iPhone UI so I would not switch to MIUI. If you like the look and feel of the iPhone UI give MIUI a try. If not, stay clear of it.

The only thing that is even remotely iPhone-esque about MIUI is that the stock launcher has no app tray. Use Go Launcher or LP if you want an application drawer. Otherwise it doesn't feel or look anything like iOS.
If you are bored with standard Android, you should absolutely try MIUI. Don't let some tool tell you not to try something. Even if you do decide you don't like it, at least you'll have made the decision yourself.
MIUI themes/lockscreens are enough reason to try it out.

Sense does look good I agree with you on that but porting them from htc to sammy is pretty difficult, a lot of framework issues. Unfortunately, I think your best option for sense is to buy a phone for htc.

sence phone's normally come with 786 mb some do have 512 mb ram for the sense ui but they uses a stripped down version of the sense ui. Trying to port those is a nightmare as most of those htc phones run something other then android or a custom version of there android os which is pretty much geared for that device so porting those wont happen.

well good luck with that ....
sence the sgs4g has 512 mb ram 130 mb is taken by the os for video audio and so on so forth which leaves about 382 or so i know we normaly have less i dont have a device in front of me
the sense ui take about 256 or so
so unless u like running ur device off 100 mb or less memory and that doesnt include actually running anything...
I wish u all well.
Dont confuse Ram with storage space as they are 2 separate things.

Well the alpha one I had iirc was running with 80+ the whole time and being alpha I'll take it for now...also most people will revert back to rom of choice(aokp/cm9) probably just want to play around with sense lol
