I have tried searching for this and come back with no results or results that I cannot follow, so I was wondering if someone could put this in plain english for me. I want the people app on a fully functioning ROM, and cannot seem to find any available for a 32b. The ones I have tried that work natively (wi-fi, bluetooth etc) have the home screen loading problem and a lot of force closes, and the ones without the loading etc have problems with wi-fi etc. The only real reason for wanting the Sense UI is the people app, as I can have a slight Sense mod with enoch's theme for cyanogen, but the people app is what I would really like, for the facebook functionality. Is there anyway of getting this into a useable ROM? Thanks
Anyone have any ideas?
its completly dependent on the SENSEUI framework, it wont work on anythitng but sense roms...sorry...
Ah I figured that would be the case. What about the taiwanese SenseUI update for the Magic. Any chance of porting the framework for that or just having the bits necessary to run the People app?
no because its still a sense build. lol. there are some 2.0 roms out there though if you are rooted. 2.0 has auto facebook integration with your contacts as well
Thanks for the heads up, yeah I am rooted, rocking CM at the moment.
yeah try some 2.0 roms i know there are like 3 or 4 floating around, arent 100 percent stable and you cannot use your camera on them though..
I have finally gotten my Aria rooted and running with both Liberated FR008 and CM 6.1. I am looking for people who have tried both and why they decided one or the other. I like the way CM lets you customize the Mod itself but I miss the Sense widgets that the Liberated has on it. I'm hoping that some of you have found things within either Rom that I have not discovered yet to push me in either direction. Thanks for the help.

CM without a doubt. Yea the sense widgets are nice and fancy but to be honest, that's a small sacrifice for complete customizability.

Do you use a Bluetooth headset with your Aria? If so, then CM 6.1 fully implements all of the BT Voice Dialing features that have been added to Froyo 2.2, whereas HTC has not fully implemented all of the BT Voice dialing features. Both of these ROMs will launch the Voice Dialing app by pressing the headset button, however, the Voice Dialing app can apparently be started in BT mode which allows you speak the voice command through the BT headset. On HTC Sense the Voice Dialing app will launch, but it is not running in BT mode, so you have to speak the commands into the phone's mic.
Another thing I noticed is that HTC is not using the Froyo email client which allows for a combined inbox.
Other than that, to each his own. I am running CM 6.1, but I have installed the HTC_IME keyboard; it is the only thing from Sense that I really missed.
They are both excellent roms, but I must agree with the above statements. Especially since CM is coming out with 2.3 for Aria hopefully in the near future.
I liked the sense widgets as well but I was able to fix that craving with beautiful widgets and launcher pro. Life is good on CM 6.1.1. Now if I could just fix my exchange bug that keeps showing up every couple of days...
None. I would choose Liberated R012. Works flawless and it doesn't lag like the Froyo ROM. CM is great but the basic android looks horrible to be honest.
A few things keep me on Sense, even though I really like CM. Last time I ran CM6, it did not have copy/paste in the Email app or the Browser whereas Sense has it. Gingerbread seems to have better text selection, so when that's available for Aria, I'm there!
Also, Gallery 3D does not run well on my phone.
Lockscreen gestures on CM are a pretty huge feature for me... without unlocking the phone, I can draw a heart to call my wife, an H to call home, a C to activate the camera and a V to activate the camcorder. You can use a gesture to do almost anything on the phone, so these are just a few basic examples.
guys I am looking at rooting my phone, but instead of flashing a whole new rom onto it, can I just do the root and have clockwork recovery installed, then can I install just the froyo update ontop of what I already have on my phone?

There is no Froyo update for your phone.
so the froyo rom thats release and is used by attn1 etc isnt that the froyo update? Cause I heard its available in Asia atm.
Also without the update or flashing a new room, but rooting the phone and installing titanium backup etc, I know that I can delete bloatware apps using titanium backup, can I also move apps to sd without having froyo installed but as the phone is rooted, will it allow me to do so?
Thanks again

ATTN is a rom, it is not an update. You have to start from scratch. Also you cannot remove bloatware with Titanium or any other app.
Liberated, but without sense launcher. I love the way sense sync does it's job and keep my contacts updated with their fb and twitter. I know there is ways for this in cm but its not the same. I use launcherpro because sense launcher is kinda laggy.
You will probably get bored sense Widgets after some time. I just like clock and weather widget and there is absolutely the same known as fancy widgets.

That's the kind of info I've been looking for, did not know CM could do that but still investigating the Rom. Thanks for the info.

I agree that R012 seemed more stable than FR008, and a tad more responsive. However, R012 does not support app2sd so I can't have as much crap on my phone as I do now. I did slim down the FR008 ROM a bit by removing the Mail, MMS, calendar apps, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube as well as most the Sense widgets (you delete them from ATTN1's zip file before flashing).
I have tried CM6, many people have good things to say about it but the UI just seems so... unpolished for lack of better word. Yeah, this is eye candy, but I like the Sense eye candy. Having 7 home screens helps too. Last but not least, for the life of me I cannot figure out how to disable the home screen animation and it annoys me to no end so CM had to go. Credit where credit is due... it does seem very zippy on the Aria.

Lag? Maybe it's because I am using Launcher Pro but my phone moves on both FR008 and CM 6.1.1. Very crisp and very responsive. The only thing that lags for me is the gallery app in CM. Everything in FR008 is butter.

I second launcherpro! I paid for launcherpro and beautiful widgets and I don't miss sense at all. Launcherpro has a nice calendar widget(like sense) and a nice messaging widget as well as some others. Launcherpro is faster than sense for me as well. Beautiful widgets can look just like the sense clock/weather widget but with tons of skins to choose from. Both are worth every penny.

No, you can't. Titanium backup will not do this on nand-locked phones, even with root. Until S-OFF is available for the Aria, it is nand-locked.
The Froyo IS available for the Aria if you have clockwork - just flash LA FR008 or CM6 - soon CM7.

Soon CM7?? yay!
Sounds exciting. How long are we going to wait approximately for a RC version?

I have an evo 4g, and i just flashed MIUI ROM 1.4.8 which is the newest one, i think, and was wondering if anyone out there can fill me in on the wireless tethering as well as the qik app doesn't seem to have video to video chat available? The camera doesn't seem to have all the control options as seen on a video before flashing the ROM, and i can't seem to get APP or a weather clock widget?
Can someone please help me that is familiar witht his, i don't know if i did something wrong, or what? I am about to go back to my original stock!
If you want Sense, I'd flash a Sense Rom. I'm personally running MIUI 1.4.1 on my Evo right now & I like it a lot, but I don't like Sense very much. If you didn't wipe everything, you're going to have problems. If there are features you know are in that version, but you can't find them, try asking on the MIUI forums. If you want a clock/weather widget, MIUI Weather is pretty good. You can get it in the Android Apps forum or over at MIUI-Dev (you have an app for their forums, it came with the rom).
Also know that there are two camera apps - the MIUI camera app, and the AOSP camera app. I'm not sure if the video recording is the same in both apps or if it's different.
Good luck figuring it out. But as I said, if you really like Sense then I'd stick with a Sense ROM. If you have any other questions about MIUI/Evo stuff, you can send me a pm. I'm always happy to help :]
Hello everyone.
I've been playing with new HTC Sense 3.5 for some while now (RCMix3d rom for DHD) and I personally love some of the new apps made by HTC. Since i'm more into 3.0 at the moment, i have been trying to port some new apps to HTC Sense 3.0 or even 2.1 so more people could use them.
Since im no pro in dev. those apps force closed whatever i did. I couldn't get them to work properly. I'm talking about new Notes, Tasks, Fb Chat apps and widgets.
Youtube Video here (0:44 for those apps):

Thank you for your time guys!

i tried this also yesterday. i can see icon on app drawer but it doesn't work. force close issue.
yeah, i have no idea what's causing the problem :s
its clearly not compatible with 3.0, needs some changes imo
any1 know whats causing that issue?
Working updates for 3.5 coming shortly then porting to 3 will be easy... Let's gets the basics right first

Your problem is you have to use the framework.apks and other apks they are dependant on.... So it will prob not be possible since they changed alot of things.... If you do use framework_res and com.HTC.resources from these roms on the old roms it will prob cause more harm than its worth

So there is a great possibility that those apps won't ever get ported to 2.1 or 3.0 unless framework could be ported too? is it even possible?
framework-hacking is possible ! so it is not impossible !
HTC Facebook chat App+Widget
Okay, i've found one of those apps above.
Its FB Chat, taken out from HTC Salsa.
XDA TOPIC LINK
It is possible but it take a fair bit of coding if you are to do it correctly
I already merged all changes from 3.5 com.htc.resources and Rosie in respective 3.0 apk`s and compiled 3.5 apk´s against new merged com.htc.resources. New framework compiled and works fine, still no success. Troubleshooting is getting harder, since the 3.5 apk`s are also pulling from shared m.10 files and these are impossible to merge with the current tools. So that might be tougher, then 3.0 mods to 2.1, where we could merge all needed resources in apk`s, jars and add missing libs (which was tough enough - kudos to seo).
I guess adding the sense style launcher to 3.5 would be less of a cruisade

hmm yea, what about that sense 3.0 launcher merging with 3.5 one? or basicly just making a theme with 3.0 dock could work also..
but first sense 3.5 needs to have better base for doing that imo
also, those notes and tasks are completely new or have the apps been seen anywhere else? Since HTC Status already got the "new" fb chat intergration..
PS: by the way, i heard somewhere that sense 3.5 UI is being accelerated by GPU? Is it true? And if yes, can this be done to 3.0 too?
this is for the FB chat and it works on desire hd

Yes, this is the one ported from the HTC Status, but the widget isn't properly resized since it was ported for the Evo 3D.

some news?
dudes and dudettes,
I tried out one of the Sense ICS ROMS (ARHD 5.0.2) and while aspects of it were great, at the moment (due to kernel development) it's a lot slower than the Gingerbread ROMs available.
However, I really loved the HTC ICS "Notes" and "Tasks" apps.
My questions,
1. Is it possible to run these apps on Gingerbread? Obviously the widgets couldn't really be integrated with a current ROM without recooking the whole thing, but just being able to use the apps would be great. Could someone provide the APKs if it is possible?
2. If that won't work, could somebody strip the icons from the apks for me? I love them and I'd like to use them for my note and to do apps.
Thanks for reading,
zuka
They work on Sense Gingerbread ROMs, yes.
I've installed both on a Gingerbread Sense 3.0 ROM and they both force close. Am I doing something wrong?
I should have clarified, Sense 3.5 ROMs have them.
