I was looking at some touchwiz android phones and there are some feature i kinda like about it so i was wondering if anyone has ported some touchwiz rom and if not can someone try? I have tried but failed..but then again I have almost no developmental skill
Thanks in advance
No one has yet and I doubt anyone will the general consensus around here is sense>touch wiz. What features are youbtrying to get

Thanks for the rely but i am thinking about geting the lg thrill when it comes out so ijust wanted to see about what it will feel like(obviously without the 3d featured)but i will try the theme chooser theme,thanks!
Id wait, as there will more then likely be more 3d phones coming out, it doesn't make to much sense to buy a phone that is already outdated before it even comes out.

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.

Don't get me wrong, I love stock better than tw, specially if I'm using adw ex, but I like the look of tw for some reason.

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

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)

hey everyone, just signed up for xda so here this goes. i am getting a samsung infuse later today, and i was wondering if there is a theme to make it look like the htc inspire. if so could you name it and maybe post a screen shot? thank you
A Sense theme for the Infuse? Nope. You'd better dust off your themeing skills and jump on it!

The closest thing i can think of would be to get launcherpro or adw launcher, they have some sense themes.

Actually.... with miu and cm7 there are a few sense themes, even the sense 3.0 lockscreen (which i happen to have if you want it)
So theres like 1 theme thats represents sense? Ehh. I guess.its.not that important. What are some.cool ones then?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Im looking for a completely New and Unique ROM for the inspire. Most of the Roms are based off of either Sense or ICS and i dont want either of those. I have also tried CM7 and MIUI and liked those but i want a new rom that looks very cool and wow's people when they see it Thanks!!

LOL!
in before thread closed.
look around a little bit, most of us are not here to brag to our friends but are here to learn. Might want to look into an iphone if youve already tried aosp,aokp,sense,miui. There isn't anything else unless it is a homebrew that isn't released. I don't think youll 'wow' too many people with such an old phone at this point. Only way to have unique is to make your own, otherwise you are just running something TONS of other people already have. Or just change your launcher, most people dont know anything beyond the frontend anyways.
In before the close lmao D.

Now to answer your question:
To be honest, I have really lost track on what is "the best" for the HTC Desire Hd/Inspire 4G.
Sabsa prime - great and madly fast but you loose some features for the moment homescreen is fixed to a specfic amount for the moment
Viper-full sense 4 rom with many ridiculous customization features and I really love it. However, because its a full sense 4 it responses slow at times which is a real bummer for me
Muwii(whatever it is called)- tried ot for a few mins but I cant say much on it because I missed my sense
Jellytime-I love it allot also, and it is quite fast. But like before I was missing a few features from sense that I like such as the sense 4 keyboard, better homescreen launcher(not too digging the default so much)
Sabsa Bliss- great like other sense 3.6 roms and it should have reduced battery drain. However, if you are a fan of the sliding homescreen wallpaper,htc one x camera(taking vids and a photo at the same time),or just the look and fell of a sense rom it might not be for you
As well we got gingerbread roms which has a ton of mods as well as other roms that I have not tested
What I am saying is its not really up to us to say "get sabsa,viper etc" but it all comes down to you

Core droid sense 2.6 is a great Rom but no longer on xda so do a google search extremely fast rom
Black out another great sense 3.5 ics Rom very fast Rom
Sabsa prime ver 12 very good ics rom 4.1 sense it's a little buggy but very nice looking and very smooth

The Moderating team is not really a fan of best rom threads because what may be a great rom for one person may not be the same for others. They're to many variables to say one rom is hands down the BEST rom. Last a lot of times these threads turn into flame wars between fan boys of different devs.
So I'm going to close this
Hey guys...so, I was recently given a glacier with a cracked screen that I repaired. I tried a couple JB Roman but unfortunately as of right now no one is really doing a lot of development for this old device just a bunch of ports with very little effort.toward bug fixes.
I decided to install the most supported rom I could find which turned out to be virtuous unity. Sense 3.0 android 2.3.4
I'm very happy with the rom. So far it is very fast and stable and does almost everything I want it to do.
My one major gripe is the keyboard. I got very used to the JB keyboard from a past phone of mine and nothing I've tried really matches up.
Is there some way I can install the JB keyboard on this old rom?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

They have jellybean and ICS keyboard in the play store. Plus gingerbread stock keyboard. Just a quick glance they have official evervolve and unofficial slimbeam both 4.3. Awesome did some amazing roms. To say there isn't much development I think is not fair. For such a phone to be so old and only one carrier(in the USA) and the carrier is the least popular of the four hoursmen I think says a lot

Little effort towards bug fixes? Are you kidding me? Devs like Elgin, coderzs and albinoman887 are ripping their hair out trying to fix some bugs. It's not very nice of you to say that's there's little effort involved. Try fixing them yourself and you'll find out why it's so hard.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda app-developers app
Sorry about that, I didn't mean to insult anyone. Fro. What I could see it didn't seem like the roms that were being ported were getting a lot of attention after that. Coderz has been porting a ton of roms which I appreciate but I didn't think he was really focusing on making any of them daily driver stable.
The phone is super old and I'm just glad that anyone is doing anything with it at all.
Notori0us, I say that you're building a 4.3 and it looks like from your thread that you're planning on sticking with it and working the bugs out which I'm super pumped about.
Sorry to anyone that is working hard on making a stable newer rom for this old phone that I might have offended, I just haven't seen it yet and the threads I've read are suggesting using older roms.
And thanks for the info about the jellybean keyboard in the market, I had no idea it was that simple.

Lol I was porting a 4.3 cyanogenmod but albinoman887 put out a pretty good one already so there's no point.
I'd you find any rom on the desire hd, s, z or some other phone with the same screen size just pm me I'll try. Also I have a another 4.2.2 aosp rom ported. Just need testers.
Also what bugs exactly are you talking about, you should tell the Devs about it and try to troubleshoot it.

Haha, ok, I'll take a look at albinoman887's thread and see how active it is.
Thanks for the offer! I'm actually really happy with the Rom I've got right now just trying out a bunch of different keyboards.
I can't remember all the bugs I ran across, one of them was that the screen would continually flash even though the phone was off.
Anyway, thanks again for your help/offer, I really do appreciate it!
