Other custom UI'S roms

So I've noticed that we have three UI's to choose from. Sense, stock(ASOP) and MIUI. How come we don't other choices like touchwiz or Motorola custom UI?

That is due to none of those will work on devices not made for it. Samsung and TW. Moto and blur. HTC and sense. Hope that helps

I actually wonder if anyone has even tried to make it happen.

I'm sure they've tried many times on multiple kinds of devices (I know 2 teams that tried to port sense to the cappy I don't think they got anywhere near a stable release) its just a whole lot more effort than a rom made for your phone
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App

its more than just the OS. those UI's arent just skins. they rely heavily on kernel support, and the framework is deeply integrated and dependent upon the core device. sense relies on it being HTC, TW relies on it being samsung, and blur relies on motorola....

Back in the day when I had the original droid i remember seeing a sense rom made for it. I never used it or even thought about it since it was pretty unstable. But I guess it is possible, just impracticle and way too much work for all the super awesome devs.

actually there is a motorola ui rom for the evo 4g.

No working data/wifi/camera, probably no working Bluetooth, its about the same stage that most of the UI ports get to before its realized that its beyond hope or the devs have worked on it so long that they grow tired of working on it.

Seems like a task that's more work than its worth. I remember there being a Sense port for my old Galaxy S but I don't think it ever left the alpha stage

Which ice cream from should I get

Currently I am using the one from hacksung that is in beta 3 and it is working pretty well. I've been using it since last night and it has been completly usable. But I see there is another one that is in beta 1 and was just wondering if it was worth a try.

I personally like Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream
But Team hacksung's rom is not beta 3, its build 3.....Its still alpha....
whereas the other one is beta 1..
I think you should try both, as both seems to be working great for different people....Both have some bugs which will take some time to resolve...

I'm currently on hacksung's, i was on one of the last alpha builds for onecosmics for a couple days but I'm having far more luck on hacksungs. Onecosmics build had more issues and took a lot more effort to get up and running on my cappy, also ran slower with more lag. It also had more little bugs in my testing, but that was also a couple builds ago. If you're really curious you could try both or just wait till a couple builds down the line when they're almost fully functioning. Both are great dev's who are just awesome for sticking with our sgs

Using onecosmic's beta 2 now. Has some irritating DPI issues that beta 1 didn't have, but other than that, the only things I can identify as "broken" are the video recorder and video playback in the gallery (which actually works, but obviously isn't hardware accelerated). Other than those two, everything seems to work out of the box.

There truly isn't a beta 2 for the Captivate yet, as ytt3r hasn't done the kernel yet... most fixes are done in the kernel not the ROM itself...
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium

I think I'm just gonna stay with the hacksungs for the rest of the week just because its working really well I think. But this weekend I'm gonna try some other roms out that use ics and see which I like best. Alsi any of you guys on hacksung get a keyboard lag when typing using this app. I mean its not really a big deal a all but I was just wondering if it is only me. And one more question if u guys lock your phone and then press the volume and power buttons do you get a wierd reactionc from hour phone. If you would like yo try it and respond back that would be great. Sorry I didnt explain well the key board lay is pretty bad right now haha.

+1 any time a change is made whether it is as minor as adding a font change or as major as adding a complete revamp it is still an update therefore can be changed from beta 1 to 2
I'm running beta 2 right now and the dpi issue is fixed easily with a build prop fix but so far I'm loving it runs very smooth what brought me to this version is teamhacksungs listed a lot more issues than onesonics version (although most have been fixed) but try both and judge for yourself any ROM is different for every user

The Captivate kernel still hasn't been updated to Beta 2, so try again guys... why do I have to keep on saying this to everyone!?! most fixes are done in the kernel, not the ROM.

The Kernel is beta 1 the rom is beta 2 read the ENTIRE op it says it plainly right there. So yes they are right the rom is beta 2.

The part that makes it beta 2 is the kernel. So no they are wrong... I am not gonna argue with people that I know are wrong it is worthless

Then you should argue with the devs to change it to beta 1 if that is your answer. Or, don't argue at all because obviously you are right and you know it.

I've been on Hacksungs ICS for a couple of days. Running pretty smooth. Yes i'ts got it's glitches but that's understandible being in the early stages. Waiting anxiosly for build 4. Flashing from CM7 was a breeze.
Keep up the great work DEVS.

A summary matrix of what's there and a count of satisfied users BY WEEK would be great. A poll?
I See ICSSGS and ITL41D. What others?
Arguing over Alpha/Beta/Release.. is not very helpful, as some may have a more optimistic view on their team's progress made thus far. The user perspective which will evolve week to week is what really will matter.

[Q] 4.0+ Sucks on my G2

Ok I'm going to try to provide as much information as possible in order to help me troubleshoot this issue. My computer is running windows 7 home premium 64 bit. I've got a tmobile htc G2. I bought it used off of a friend and it was previously rooted and IIRC it had 2.3.7 gingerbread on it? not 100% sure. Since then I've updated the Clockwork to 5.0 from 3.0 and I updated the rom to an ICS 4.0.3. I tried virtuous at first and I believe now I'm using virtuous quattro RC3. I don't know If I'm still in an early version or what but I hate it. My apps (mocospace) crash constantly, even from switching from portrait to landscape, even the browser version of mocospace. I even tried downloading opera and dolphin and the same thing happens. Also with youtube, when I watch videos, they are not videos, they are more of a slideshow, I've downloaded adobe air and adobe flash but the videos are still in frames. I'm looking for one of two things, A Stable ICS that will work on my G2, or to go back to a previous version of android that will work fine like it used to. this version on this phone is driving me nuts, I constantly have to power off/on my phone to reset a Blank homescreen issue, or the icons will be blurred. thanks in Advance! - Andy

Bump

Good God, Seriously?
If it sucks so bad flash something else. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=758 and look for something that suits your fancy. *****ing in a general discussion section without using the search options will not get you any help. I stumbled upon this post on accident and thought "Eh, why the hell not". Qualcomm chipsets like those in the Vision and Glacier and most HTC phones don't have stable ICS yet due to driver issues. READ READ READ READ then READ some more then flash. Otherwise you'll be this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwleOote5M0&list=FLiSUReotYhEITuOWRb6Hb8w&index=11&feature=plpp_video

I was actually reading up on some different roms while I was at work tonight and figured I would try out both the Andromedus, and the CyanogenMods. I Do appreciate your help though, and [email protected] the video. When I bought this phone off of a friend it was already rooted and had 2.3.7 on it I believe, I just wanted to try out android 4.0. I'm guessing though like you say its still too early to find something awesome. I don't even mind this one so much except that it seems like itcant handle any graphical apps or procedures. once again thank you

Yea, the GPU on HTC phones doesn't have native ICS drivers yet. Good luck chief

[Q] Jelly Bean ROM's for Inspire 4G/Desire

After giving it some time for Jelly Bean to hit developers, I've seen 2 versions of Jelly Bean that work on the Inspire, both of which are variants of JellyTime. There is a CM10 version out there, but the Inspire/Desire is not on their supported list and after installing it I can't get it to boot past the splash screen.
Has anyone seen any other JB ROM's out there? I've seen Randomblame's and Synergy's and I must say both are noticeably faster, faster internet, faster APP install, and improved efficiency overall.

Please post all questions in the Q & A section. Thanks!
Thread moved.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Those are the two. Since nothing official will be hitting any similar devices it probably won't be a big collection of roms like gb and ics. I bet someday we will see a port of a jelly/sense combo but it will probably be missing stuff so it is actually usable. Our devices are becoming dated compared to jelly bean devices. It's like running windows 7 on an old Athlon. I know I am looking forward to upgrading. My inspire has been a great device, but most of the really great devs have upgraded and moved on, and I can't wait til I can do the same. I've only got 11 more months lol. Keylime(or whatever the k version will be called) will probably be out by then.

My apologies, thanks for moving it. I am new to this.

I've been using randomBlame's jelly bean nightlies for some time now. It is nearly perfect but the one major flaw made me revert back to ice cold sandwich: the screen blacks out when the first sound is initiated after sleep. It's actually a problem with cm10 and it interferes with calls. When that is fixed it will be my new os.

I just flash this rom (below) yesterday night and i must say thsi is the best one I've flashed in awhile.
its fast its good on battery life and the design is Crack lol. only problem i have is the camera function
dont like that i have to snap a shot just to calibrate it. and the Apollo music app, installing a different theme it doesnt seem to work.
other than that the dialer works, wifi is excellent and the battery life is sweet....check it out​

A workaround for camera focus is to hold button and then slide finger off it sideways. It will focus without taking a picture. Works for me.

Thank you :good:

I'm currently using JellyTime R13 and I haven't run on any issues. Great battery life, very fast and the camera bug stated earlier in this post is fixed. Only thing not working is the headset controls, but for me that's not a big deal. I use it as my daily driver. I haven't used the other one but I think it should be very similar to JellyTime since both are unofficial CM Nightlies.

Still has backlight issues I think. Biggest deal killer for me is not supporting all wifi channels...
