HTC ROM? HTC Sense? N1 already got it!

Does here any chance to get HTC ROM (Sensation/Desire S/Desire HD...) or just HTC Sense (2.1/3.0) port to our great P990?
just see a ported ROM for Nexus One, a little bit missing my old phone... /_\

I still have my Nexus One

mine was gone with the thief ><

Don't know if it's possible, they were able to port itbto the n1 because iy's very similar to the desire, i think.

I think actually its ported already. Sense 3.0 .... Look in the theme section for P990
Edit; just a theme but it looks good indeed

Also because there are alot of developers there compared to LGO2x

tbh mate, dont have any high hopes for this kind of port,
HTC phones tend to be very similar (nexus1 is basically a desire) so when a new version of sense comes along, its not that hard to port it to other devices.
Porting sense to a totally different device, from a different manufacturer, with different processor, just makes it too tricky. You'll notice that the Galaxy s, (which is way way more popular than our phone) doesnt have a sense port either (after just double checking this, turns out they do have one from the 2nd of june and its very buggy alot of things dont work)
So yh basically dont get your hopes up about a sense port, with devices you tend to get a modified version of your own manufactures rom, if your lucky a CM7 support, and possibly a miui rom. If the device is very popular then you might get the odd asop rom, but for example you wont get a port of the SE arc rom on our phones or anything like that.

Cam Driver, Sense and Cm7/9

If we ever get the Cam driver, will be able to make on a Cm7/9 Rom great pictures like on Sense Roms?

In theory, yes.

Don't we already have the old sense cam driver?
Anyways don't know but interested in this topic...

But the Cam on Cm7/9 Roms is buggy.
That isn't Sense i know, but when we had had the Cam driver for Sense, why we cant use it for Sense 3.6 or 4.0 Roms. It is always Sense, and if a Sense 3.5 Rom have a fully working cam with the Sense 3.0 Drivers (INCs haven't Sense 3.5 officially) ehy it dont work on Sense 3.6/4.
Someone can give me/us answers?

I think it's not because of the version of sense but because of ICS.
Some devs managed to have the camera working on some AOSP ROM but the kernel for sense ROM is different.

Yeah its due to different versions like GB and ICS. But my cm7 camera was always perfectly fine.

That's only because of the application. I don't thinks it's kernel related.

I see diferrences with the same app on Sense/CM7. There must be something.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

Sense ROMs have always been better. The camera in CM7 was pretty bad, at least in my case. MIUI was only a little better.
Understandably, the cams on the ICS ROMs produced very grainy pics. Hope HTC release the camera drivers soon.
And I do not think this has got anything to do with the kernel, but please correct me if I am wrong

[APP] Epic Citadel {Amazing Graphics on our little phone :)}

So this app has been around on iOS for three years now, but has only today arrived on Android.
130mb download can be quite a hassle but I think it is worth it. To clarify: this is a game, (well sort of?) in which you can explore a town/castle with the surroundings. It has no real gameplay or missions or anything, but it's nice to know what amazing graphics our little beast is capable of
Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epicgames.EpicCitadel
Graphics are really amazing, screens taken from my phone attached
Oh yeah, before I forget, you can also use the app to benchmark

wow nice pics. do you use the jellybean drivers that have just resurfaced in this section ?
If not perhaps you could try them as see if theres a difference.
I do use the drivers and have as habit when they were posted , i just have all this sort of stuff backed up on my pc so just pull it when I need it.( I still have a Nameless v5.05 backed up with the original OC's In case the new offical rom ended up not as good as the old rom nameless was based off .:good:

Jb drivers indeed, they are pretty awesome
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app

Jellybean drivers don't add more fps instead it lowers it by .4 or .3 in some gpu benchmark app making it slower than the original htc ics egl drivers.

screen looks bettter tho

[Discussion][2.3.7] Cyanogenmod 7

This is a topic that discusses the possibility and pros/con's of having a gingerbread rom on our desire c.
Personally I think that gingerbread is like CLASSIC android, and 4.0+ is More MODERN android.
I have absolutely no experience in building Roms so I ask the developers here to maybe try to build something more old fashioned
I am willing to test any and every ROM made.
What do you guys think?
I feel that we have run out of Roms to build in android Jelly bean so why not try something old but fresh!

What do I think?
No.
Absolutely no point, like at all.

Then we could run Java Emulator

also if we get gb then we get chainfire support back on board meaning raising d gfx quotient of games esp nfs mw. If we can get some dev support then it can be pulled off

if you want cm7 i can probably help after i make ubuntu partiton on my new computer

Firefox OS would be a better ROM.

Thanks that would be awesome!!! And to all the haters (me, and brnt) not everyone likes the way android 4.0+ looks. I personally like it but I like 2.3 better...
Pros / Cons of gingerbread:
Pros:
- better menu look
- faster performance on our hardware
- less bulky than jelly bean (animations, apps, etc)
- more classic of android
- AWESOME 3D GALLERY
- Officially supported hardware
Cons:
- less smooth as jellybean
- less app support
- less RAM management
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app

Pros / Con's of Cyanogenmod 7 (not the stock GB features)
Pros:
-more customization than cm10
-(currently) more themes than cm10
Con's:
-less "spin offs" (Provision, Etc.)
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app

Why would you downgrade a device to software that is 2 years old? If you wanted to get 2.3 buy a wildfire S... The main selling point of this device was at the time it was a very cheap and good quality handset running the latest version of android which was 4.0! And gingerbread was old and looked outdated compared to modern day Android (entirely opinion though)
The points you made with stock gingerbread were mostly opinion, and about the jelly bean being bloated (which I agree with) remember that the HTC Desire C came with stock ICS which was smooth when coupled with sense. And I think someone can port the "AWESOME 3D GALLERY" if it hasn't been done already.
It would be great to see it happen, but what's the point?

If you want GB ( Not CM7 ), you can port stock rom from HTC Explorer. Desire C and Explorer have same chipset, so the ROM will boot and function out of box. Only, BT and WiFi wont work at first. You can fix that later.

I would do this if I knew the slightest bit about porting ROMs! I guess I'm just waiting for a dev here to have the same opinion as me and make/port a ROM to desire c...

Guys I really appreciate your opinions on the topic. Lol, from the start of the development of this phone I wanted a GB look. You may laugh at me for buying a phone that never had or will get GB but the only phone that was availible to me to get GB (my carrier) was the Samsung galaxy Q, and that thing is really bad + it runs 2.2 not 2.3 and 2.2s status bar is ugly (my opinion). So is there any devas that wish to help me out a little?

Well I like your idea of having something classical. And no I am not a hater, I'm just stating an opinion.
That is why its a [Discussion]. What I recommend you doing is to learn how to do stuff on your own and not rely on others.
I was curious about kernels, so I learned. I mean it shouldn't be that hard to follow a guide.

About GB
me too ... i wish theres a GB/CM7 roms here... .. .but it is more smooth if it is a plain GB (doesnt have a Sense) ... and also about the kernel?? what kernel we should flash?

That would be awesome. Oh the days f gingerbread

You should use kernel 2.6.x for GB. For that you need to port Explorer's 2.6.x stock kernel source to Desire C, just like we ported 3.0.x kernel for Explorer from Desire C.

[Q] CM10 Camera Problem

Hello,
I'm new on these forums and my English is't wonderfull, sorry for that.
I got a HTC Desire c Rooted and with CM10, NOPE Kernel. My problem is the camera, I don't like the stock android camera with the grey box. So I searched for APK-files and found some good ones(Google camera, the on with the blue button).
It all worked fine but when I try to take a picture of a face it Force Closes itself.
This is with all the files I tried. there is also no option to disable face recognisation.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm running Andoid 4.1.2
Thanks

You can use Cyanogenmod 10.1 camera apk.it is not boxed but you can only have 3 mp cam

Hi,
I'm using cm10.0 with 4.1.2 But that camera is for 4.2
Is that a problem or not?
---------EDIT------
So, I flashed tjhe cm 10.1 camera. It runs but when I try to snap a picture of a face it force closes
Isn't there a fix for this? or is this something else like missing files on my phone.

What do you mean?
The stock camera isn't causing the problem. It is just ugly XD
It is with all the cameras I tried but they all FC when I try to take a picture of a face.
Could this be a missing or broken Face detection module?
Is this fixable?
I'm using another camera (camera zoom fx) but I prefer the minimalistic one with the blue dot (KitKat I think)

I know.... It is sort of ugly, but since it works, I use it.
