ICS Google Apps on GB Stock? - HTC Sensation

Hi there,
is there a way to get the latest Google Apps like Maps, Gmail, YouTube etc from ICS running in pre-ICS releases?
I'm running GB 2.3.4 Stock Rom, rooted.
Thanks,
gabbo

No windup knight... Why

On a HTC sensation with coredroid.... I can't seem to find windup knight unless I search it on Google and manually go to the market. It says its not compatible now. It was a week ago... Any suggestions if its my phone or ROM?

i just searched for it it doesn't show up on the market, im running hyper sensation cm7
It's the ROM. I had an issue using Sense 3.5 not finding my banks app, Sense 3.0 (Android 2.3.4) found it fine
I downloaded it via the market just a few days ago, and I'm fairly sure I'd already rooted the phone and flashed the InsertCoin 3.4.0 rom by then.
So possibly talking to the devs that made the Rom and see it there is a solution.

Running Scott's MIUI and shows not compatible as well from the market. I'll upload the apk later I got. The app is FREE so no it's not warez.
Here's the apk. It's the latest version as of 11/18/11 ver 1.2

[Q] Are ICS ROM safe?

I have been reading posts about ICS ROMS and it seems that there is no perfectly working ICS ROM yet. Is it true?
And if you saying that ROM is stable that means that you have no problems at all with it? No app forse closing, random reboots or sense misbehavior?
Sorry if my post didn't belong here or if there are topics about this, I would appreciate if you post links to that threads

i have been using the androidHD ISC rom with 3.12 firmware and the only issue i can see is that the effects in the camera do not work. but i believe that has been fixed now with the 3.24 firmware package. 3d games work such as shadowgun and dark, no apps have FC'ed on me yet and no random reboots either. just make sure you make a nandroid backup and just test a few ICS roms out and see which one suits your needs.............................sudeki300
i'm now currently on 4.0.3 with ARHD 6.1.1
it is very smooth and i have not discovered any bugs so far.

Flash them all and see which one you like best. Thats pretty much the only way to know.

The ICS roms are certainly stable enough for daily driver. The 3.12 based roms had a few issues, one being the use of camera effects, this was causing the camera to force close. These issues have been fixed in the new 3.24 based roms. I can't find a single issue in either arhd 6.1.1 or insertcoin 4.4.3. I haven't had a single force close or strange behavior from any part of the software

I have flashed Virtuous Inquisition v3.0.0 this morning (on my XE) and I must say, it is fantastic and beats other roms out there in terms of speed, being stable, no FC's etc.
If you don't mind that HTC Sense (the launcher etc.) is missing, I would go for this if you are wanting to try out ICS.
I have tried ARHD, InsertCoin and the RUU before this, but they were not to my liking and I found them very slow and unresponsive.
Please note, I flashed the 3.24 firmware.
I am using Leedroid 6.0.0 and have been using all the other leedroid ICS releases.
My only problem is a fc of soundset on startup and thats it.
So yes it is safe.
Thanks guys for answers I'm using now ICS ROM (InsertCoin 4.4.4 thanks to baad) and my experience is even better than it was with custom GB ROM. I guess it's partly because of me using Titanium Backup correctly now xD Everything is working and no lags

[Q] Which is the best near stock ICS Rom for HTC Sensation (Not XE)

Hello Everybody
I am currently using Android Revolution HD 6.1 ROM in my HTC Sensation mobile phone.
I like the firmware for most part, but the browser flickering is annoying.
Eventhough i can use any 3rd party browsers, i want the built in browser to be less annoying.
Also i hate ROMs that deviates from the stock user experience.
Please suggest a good ROM or suggest a solution for the browser flickering issue.
Even Google Chrome Browser not working smoothly and is not yet available for me .
Update to 6.2.1 and the browser issue is fixed.
Sorry, i given wrong information.
I am using 6.2.1 it self.
But i haven't updated the radio firmware and have not installed the XE version and haven't erased data partition after updating it.
Someone told me that only in 6.2.1 XE firmware the browser issue been fixed.
But that required radio firmware update.
I'm pretty sure both versions of 6.2.1 required the updated firmware package as they were based on the new RUU.
So if you're successfully running 6.2.1 then you must have the updated radio etc.

If you have s-off, root and super CID, run the latest ics sense ruu then you will be totally stock.
This will lock your bootloader but you will still be s-off and you can download the superuser app for root privilidges and re-install a custom recovery.
I am running stock ics 3.25.401.101 from an RUU install and have remained completely stock except for a percentage battery mod and a custom recovery and everything runs very well.
As long as you are super CID you can always revert to any other stock rom using appropriate RUU's and unlock the bootloader again using revolutionary.

App versions in ARHD 6.7.0?

Could someone tell me what version the mms.apk is in 6.7.0?
And also, if you know what other apks were changed with the update, could you list them too?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Thanks everyone, you've been a great help. -_-
I decided to flash 6.7.0 myself and compare some of the essential apks. Most if not all of the ones i checked have been updated.
mms.apk for example has been updated to 3.5.2215192631.376509
If you had problems with the contact pictures in mms.apk like i did but don't want to update to ARHD 6.7.0, updating the app will fix it.

HTC One S Bell Canada

Hey guys,
I have the latest official OTA Update for my HTC One S on Bell.
Version 1.84.666.9
Sense 4.0 instead of 4.1 tmobile version
Android 4.0.3
I do not have the possibility to change the Recent apps button.
I would like to stay on stock rom just to avoid flashing rom updates and deal with glitches.
Should I just wait it out for jellybean or should I change my CID to something else?
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks
Are you rooted? There are mods that you can flash on the stock ROM that will remap the recent apps button. Look here. Otherwise there is no way to natively remap the buttons without sense 4.1.
Thanks!
Will I still get the possibility to update or not? To jelly bean or what not..
