Hey I was just wondering why this does not work .
Why can I not cross use different apks from different roms .
I am using Ice cold sandwich atm and the Camera application sucks on it , half the stuff doesn't work so I am forced to use a third party application.
I tried to access the app folder inside the "system.ext3.tar" which was found in one of my backup roms . ---> Created with CW MOD
I basically tried to take the working camera application and install it on my current rom but it crashes on startup, how do you actually go about doing stuff like this? What are the requirements ?
I just dont get why it does not work
I also hate the clock APK in the rom it does not have a world clock which I really need. I tried to again take the World Clock apk from another rom and it did not even install.
They were all from different icecream sandwiches but with sense 4 , the rom I am using does not have sense but I dont see how that would really affect this
Can someone explain to me how to cross use APK system files ?:good::good:
I believe you can't cross sense with aosp and aokp. If you want sense apps to work then port to a sense Rom. Your trying to put a square peg in a triangle hole.

I cannor really explain it, but I know for sure that u can't use apk-files from sense or touchwhiz and use them on AOKP ROMs. It's just not possible. Same thing for widgets...

I don't think it would be *sense*
It hasn't been taken from a HTC rom, its just a clock thats themed to look like sense

A themed AOKP rom to look like sense is not a sense rom

I see thanks for all your help guys and if anyone can explain to me the technical aspect of not being able to cross APKS due to AOSP and AOKP
I am just curious as to the limiting factor

HTC apps require HTC framework and other HTC apps in order to work
So without the other apps, just come of them won't work
Most apps from other Roms, like Sony Ericsson and miui Roms will work, I have some of them
I think just Samsung and HTC apps won't work
But Samsung apps can be hacked

There are dependency on HTC framework for sense APk,thus causing sense apk not working at aosp/aopk rom.

Hey guys, I used to be on the Windows Mobile side, but now I'm on Android and I need your help.
My 2.1 Sprint Hero has just been rooted. The only reason I did this was in the hopes that I could, somehow, get the Vanilla Android UI back. However, sometimes I want the Sense UI. In short, I'd like to have my eclair and eat it too *ba dum tish*. So if there is an apk or some sort of rom that can give me that, that'd be perfect.
If there isn't, fine. I can do without the sense UI, but I need my phone to work. And by work, I mean the camera has got to preview, the GPS has to function, etc, etc...
Any tips?
I believe Fresh is Sense based and you can use LauncherPro or ADW Launcher for the "vanilla" feel and home switcher to switch between the 2

Both Red Dawn and Blue Echo are by Papa Smurf and based off of Fresh (include Sense), and they overclock, undervolt, all that jazz. They incorporare vanilla aspects side-by-side with Sense, like the contacts and dialer. And they look sweet.
If you want full AOSP, check cSrOm (Buufed). Its themed out too, and fast as hell.
Good luck!

i hope you guys are all groaning and this will probably get ignored like the rest of them, and i know the outlook is grim.
but i will do it anyway
- so there aren't any good photo galleries for Aosp other than gallery3d and gallery 2d
- while i understand that we need the sense framework to run it i am still not totally convinced it cant be done
judging by this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679707
and also that we were able to get the htc_ime to run on non sense phones
he mentions something about messing with the manifest
i havent had any luck getting .apk's to decompile with apk_manager even after getting some help (thanks impaler)
so i dont think we should give up hope on this one

Im no dev but I am sure that the actual 3.0 lockscreen is part of the HTC Sense framework therefore cannot be ported over easily over to CM7 which is built up from stratch. It was a bit like having the Ginger 2.3 CRT effect on Froyo 2.2, which it just does not work as easily has an APK or zip flash.

SO SO ESSENITALLY answer!
There is no way to use it in clear AOSP ROM... as it need a lot of SENSE components like weather, nad other apks that wont run on CM...
Thanks peeps
Just a shame it isn't possible coz the cm7 lockscreen is pretty bland and I wudnt want an app to replace it
Widget Locker is pretty good if you want another lockscreen, check it out

Is there any way to get the sense lock screen but much more customizable. Like a lock screen from WidgetLocker?
Cause the lockscreen is fine by itself but lacks customization...
Why can't we get a music player on the sense lock?
i have the link but i cant post it since im new
sadly i try it on my incredible2 running cm7 stable it didnt worked installed fine but i dont see it even after reboot
in fact it felt slow and weird after reboot
Actually guys, I have seen it on MIUI. There is an NDT MIUI ROM floating around which has the sense Lockscreen. Now we all know that CM7 and MIUI are both from aosp. So if it working on MIUI it should be able to work on CM7 with a little bit of porting. We already have examples of the camera and music apps from MIUI working on CM7. So from my point of view it should work if you are ready to get your hands a little dirty.

Congrats about your Sense 3.0 lockscreen on CM7... It's not free though...
i try the agile lock also is buggy and is lacking features in my opinion unless you get the paid version i guess

I find it pretty cool and beautiful with some nice configs and with the ring style.
I want to start a thread to find out what the majority of people want for their Vivid. I think we were close to perfection with some of the GB Sense 3.5 ROM's. Now there is ICS... Take the time to tour other devices XDA threads and current ICS ROM's. There is starting to be some really cool stuff out there. Remember, this is just a wish list some or none of this may be currently possible now or ever. Along with all of the standard root, debloat, de-odexed etc, personally, I would like:
OC
Sense 4.0
Amaze Camera/(or other new boss future camera)
enhanced beats/(other sound tweak)
better battery life
Possible new theme selection (which I am told is not possible yet for Sense 4.0)
Wi/Fi Tether
FYI, I saw a cool non-sense ICS ROM out there that has a really cool sense like lockscreen and a bunch of launcher tweaks. It was for the Desire, I think...
AOSP gingerbread or ICS
I love stock and Sense 3.6.

Definitely this.
For starters either Sense 3.0 with ICS or Sense 4.0. Sense 3.5 is horribly ugly and 3.6 is better but the proprietary apps Music, Reader, Watch, etc look MUCH better on Sense 3.0. Just not feeling the bland straight edges and all black.

Mostly, I'm happy with the stock AT&T vivid [after Rooting & de-bloating, etc] ... I just moved from a mostly stock HTC Rhodium, so Android is a whole new world of fun & learning.
I'm not sure exactly how Siri works on the iphone 4s but you can hold the search button on android devices and it lets you send a text, make a call, look up directions, listen to a certain song/artist/album, send an email, set an alarm, get a map of a place, go to a certain url, make a note to yourself, or google search things. It just doesn't talk to you...

This is from an article... "DiClemente notes that Google is expected to offer something called “Assistant,” as part of the next version of its Android operating system, version 5.0, dubbed “Jelly Bean.” That will be a more advanced voice-recognition search than Google currently offers, with the ability to tap into Gmail, the “Google+” social networking service, etc."
I agree, it would be awesome!
Am running Unlocked, Rooted, OTA, the ICS with 3.6, I like it but would love:
Capychimp's APM from Sensation
more settings on notification bar, like BC's or RCmix3D
a music player that allows sound enhancements over BT
and of course wifi hotspot
I would be happy just with these.
I have already sent Capy a message asking if it was possible to get the APM, and how this old fart can put it on, now to find the rest.
Cheers

Can one just install the Sense launcher APK on AOSP and have it work? I really love AOSP functionality but Sense 5.0 design as a launcher, and BlinkFeed of course.
Suggestions, solutions, idea welcome.
Emh, it will not work...
Because launcher need also framework, com.htc.resource...
You have to choose: Sense or AOSP

That's a huge bummer. Maybe someone will eventually make it work. AOSP functionality + Sense design would be a killer combo.

Sense 5.0 currently runs off of 4.1 as you know, it has most of the same functionality and features and abilities as stock 4.1 but not all. I honestly can name many of them right now because I've only ran into a few. I know there are some missing sharing functions, zooming into pictures is weakened, and there are some others. All I am saying is that I want the full functionality and potential of stock 4.2.2, but with a Sense 5.0 launcher for looks and BlinkFeed.

Yes i know, but, htc rom have a modded framework, com.htc.resource and other function.
For have a fully sense 5 working you need the htc and resource by HTC.
So, or you will use app like aosp lockscreen or android 4.2 camera is possible...
But, for example, you can't have the aosp with the fully sense 5...
However, can you list some function that you will have?

I don't think you understand. All I care about is the launcher, not the full blown Sense 5 UI framework. Just the launcher/icons. That could be ported from the framework and then BlinkFeed might be able to be ported as well. At that point it would be two simple APK installs while running stock 4.2.2. Theoretically it should be possible.

Well obviously it is not as simple as that. I never said it would be. But developers have extracted a launcher from frameworks before. I've seen it. It will take some work but I'm sure we will eventually have it.
You know whats kinda of a cool launcher is Lightning Launcher. Im using it on my One now.
I think is for crazy dev...
However, if someone will develop this, good luck
