maybe someone can take the launcher and putt it over sense or something but i don't know though, I'm no dev...

Porting from a different device takes a lot of time - and since it is older version than current available - nobody will waste the time on it. Porting the launcher is possible, tho.

Just stating
I think we should try to port over the motoblur

Why exactly?
Just curious as most people don't seem to like it.

At the OP, if you want MotoBlur on your Sensation then You might want to check this thread out. I know it is not exactly the same as what you linked. But hey it ia all I can offer right now.

well i got it to install, but it force closes...some things need to be edited just not sure what exactly
You guys can't possibly be talking about the "Bubbles" lwp that's on the market, can you?
My dog could draw better graphics than that one has.
OK, so no, that's not what you're talking about. Any screenshots of it someone could link to? I'd like to check out some cool live wallpapers....

it's the one from the htc desire. like i said it works on the desire and since someone got the desire rosie.apk ported, i thought that maybe it would be possible to get it to work. maybe it has some dependencies on the desire framework...im not too sure.

Ah, that one. Yeah, that one's pretty cool. Not a "must have", but it would be cool to have on my phone as an option.
I could make a youtube video of the one I was referring to, but trust me, it's not worth it...
Now, for a completely unrelated question....
How do I get one of the demo phones? I've done all the right things. Tried the phone stock when it was fresh out of the box, tried better roms, wiped EVERYTHING and then reflashed the fastest roms I've found, and my phone has never, ever been as snappy as what they show in these demo videos.
Makes me wonder if they build special demo phones that have a 3ghz core 2 quad in them with three and a half minutes of battery life.... (just enough to do a quick demo and then run back to the booth for a fresh battery...)

Someone leaked it to modaco a while ago. As for messing around with it. Install it and run logcat to see why it fails. Then use smali or the apktool from the g1 forums to modify it.

Smoki too But remember, it's just a launcher. If you want a complete set of things, you would have to create your own theme
as what Klothius said
Can you share the launcher.apk capy and klothius? I'd like to try and implement it in my own mix.

Samsung Galaxy S phone and dial pad apps
Hmmm is there anyway to port the Galaxy S contact APKs and other UIs? I've just recently changed mine to Cyanogenmod and seems to me the stock UI is pretty boring.
Sure, go on and have a look at any Galaxy ROM.. The pngs are only for HDPI and there will likely be none for our MDPI devices as AFAIK there are no TouchWiz MDPI phones.
A few months ago I tried it myself, but it was pain to get all the images right..
I can give you touchwiz app just install it

Is Ice Cream Sandwich for HTC?

I know ICS hasn't been released yet, but HTC runs a different OS then the ones with Gingerbread so are they gonna release it for HTC Inspire to?
Hope so cause i would like to check it out.

Listen up pal, lemme help ya a bit.... (To be honest, re-reading your post, and again reading, I can't make heads or tails of what your asking. Will ICS be an available base for Inspire Devs to work with? Is that closer to what your suggesting, or asking?)
When the Inspire was released it was running Froyo, and when GB leaked the Devs with thier almighty wizardry developed a Rom(s) based on GB that could be flashed on rooted phones. Then HTC provided OTA updates for folks not rooted, which in turn gave most (all) Inspire users a Gingerbread based Sense Rom. Now that may not be all perfectly explained, but maybe it will help you to reassess how your question or statement is asked.....
Check this out. Opened a new Tab - Googled Ice Cream Shop Android and there it was.
Google wants ICS rolling out soon to compete with Apple - and it will be an available upgrade for existing smartphone users capable of running 2.3 (or 2.2 don't remember) They want all capable Android devices to be able to integrate with this new OS. SO my bet is this, once it drops those wacky wizards will be all over it - and a rooted user will see it before HTC pushes it out OTA
Edit: Your not grasping this the right way mate, so let me sum it up better. It's not a question (referring to thread title) of is ICS for HTC. ICS is an Android OS, which means its for Android powered devices. HTC, Samsung, Motorola, etc will use ICS for thier newest ANDROID powered devices, following that will probably be the dev versions, then official OTAs will follow - HOPEfully. Damn. That was tough........ ....... ...... .......
Sorry for the confusing question.
In other words, you're saying that all android phones (Running Sense or other OS) will be updated ICS?
SBasham said:
Sorry for confusing question.
I guess what i was trying to say was if i go out when ICS is release and buy a HTC Inspire will the OS be ICS or Sense?

Sense isn't an OS. Its a UI. Sense is built on top of android OS 's like 2.2.1, 2.3.3. The HTC inspire will not be getting ICS. But as an EXAMPLE if it did, the OS would be ICS and sense would be built on top of it as a UI.

Lol, no apology necessary bud, but please don't be offended when I say you really should read a little something or other (Google "What is HTC Sense UI") to better inform yourself about your Phone. One last try bud - here we go. Ready?
Android powers your phone. Sense is a UI (user interface) which allows you to navigate through your phones OS or Operating System. Think of it like this bud - if Google is your car - Sense is the steering wheel. So if you go and buy another Inspire, The O.S. will be Gingerbread, How you will tell the OS what to do next, will be Sense. If that doesn't answer anything - then its someone else's turn...

In my opinion, HTC devs wont see a reason to rebuild sense over a new android build when they just released gingerbread. But more than likely there will be ICS roms

I was just asking your opinion on this and my battery died. They said ICS would support devices less than a year old. So we know the Devs will get thier hands on it, but it might be in HTCs interest to upgrade as Google is wanting a multi-device compatibility and interaction like iPhone, IPad, etc.... What I hope doesn't happen is HTC holding out an Update solely to encourage upgrading.
Edit: Sounds Promising, Looks and Sounds Stellar, we shall wait and see indeed. SBasham - I re-read my post and wanted to apologize for sounding snarky. Totally didn't mean to be a downer bud!
That's my cue its pillow time....

The best we can hope for is a ported rom as I don't see ATT giving another update to this device. Now I hope I am wrong but past prices other wise

DianXinos Rom

Anyone out there seen this OS/Rom? Anyone interested in trying to port it over to our device? I'm no chef otherwise I'd do it myself.
Guess it's DianXin?
DX Rom XDA Article
the "os" looks like touchwiz, cm7, miui all put together.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513905
They also got it for the MT4G
Yeah, I saw it on the MT4G because my wife still has one and I was looking around at what to put on her phone. Well, if someone knows of a porting guide of some sort I'll try to do it myself.
Anyone please? Or just give me some guidance via chat or message?
The ROM is based on CM7, I'd do it if it were formatted for qHD. Sensation is my first qHD and I don't know how nicely HGVA stuff will play out on a qHD screen..
Still, just get out a CM7 ROM and replace all of DianXinos related files (which should be so,e framework and apps, I assume) and zip it up.
There is an ICS version of the DianXin rom.

Just wondering if its possible for anyone to port this rom over to HOX ? The second droid link is an updated version & has a nice urban theme which is pretty sweet. Would appreciate it, if anyone is capable of doing so. Thanks in advance...

So let me get this straight. You are the only person in the world that prefers and does not try to viciously remove MotoBlur from their device? Shudders
So do you want the bugatti or the ford focus with exterior customization to look like one?
Unless... This must be a troll thread ;]
Didn't know it was so wrong on asking if its possible to port a Rom. Roms are ported all the time. I guess haterade was on tap today.

It's not wrong. But here's the problem. That phone and ours have NOTHING in common. Not to mention without kernel source there's not much we can do to port other platform's roms. Also Moto Blur *yech*

Lol no hateraide, xD Haven't heard that one in a long time. Just... Going from what we have to what you want, Seems like such a downgrade [such as Windows 7 -> Windows 2000] between the two It wouldnt really be worth the time. If you are just looking for a theme as such, then you might want to try a launcher such as Nova and checkout the themes available for it. I'm sure you'll find one you like :]. As for me, I prefer sense. Nova has gotten laggy before. And call me judgemental or a prick [or whatever else], but On a phone with "1 Gig" ram and a 1.5 [1.8 in my case] Ghz Processor, I want and expect zero lag. Ever. :W
If the ROM had a source, then I would have tried. The thing is though that it is based off of their stock (file modded) and not built from source, so we can't build for our device by only using the binaries since our devices are nothing alike.
Yea hear ya guys. Just more so interested in this theme. We really only have two themes for hox at this time. And this one is pretty sweet.
