[Q] Aosp + sense - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know much about rom development, if anything.
Curious, is it possible for an aosp based rom to have certain sense apps installed. Ie, an aokp/cm base that uses the aosp system menu, status bar but can use the sense dialer, contacts etc?
I have no idea if this is possible. I have seen "hybrid" roms but they all seem to be Sense based roms that have been debloated and removal of some sense apps. I was hoping to go the other way if that makes sense!

Had you searched this out you would have found that the answer is no. Sense apps need HTC Sense frameworks and without it they dont work and AOSP uses a completely different framework.

[Q] aosp 2.1? i havent found it...

I was looking for an aosp 2.1 for my cdma hero. cant seem to find it... just a straight up vanilla, white taskbar, vanilla lockscreen, vanilla messages app, etc, etc.
anyone got anything for me? thank you thank you
Search for darchdroid in dev forum
thanks. his 2.8 doesnt seem to be for me though. im not looking for modifications by the community and what not, just want to try a straight google 2.1 for a bit. if it doesnt exist, then excuse my naivety.
really all i want is a stock rom, like nfinite's, with vanilla lock and vanilla taskbar. yeah i got the 3G icon and the vanilla four bars setup but i want that vanilla taskbar. i tried nfinites deodex version and attempted to put the vanilla taskbar on it with the vanilla lock but it wouldnt work.
thank you thank you.
Try browsing the Themes and Apps section -- there are several AOSP-looking themes and mods in there.
The one down in my signature (Leukay's Oreo Theme) adds the AOSP taskbar and a couple other menu changes to a stock Sense ROM. I know it works in nfinitefx45's ROM cuz I'm using it right now. Give it a shot.
And if you search in the nfinitefx45 Stock ROM thread, there are many posts about some people being able to get the vanilla lockscreen working on it too.
thanks. ive just made a nand b/u so ill give this a shot even though im on the odex version

Anything you get here is going to be modified by someone. Your phone was shipped with a black taskbar, Sense UI, and Sense only apps. In order to modify the look of it, it will have to be modified. If you want the stock android apps you can find those and then push them to your phone.
Darch's 2.8 is vanilla android, which is what I thought you wanted.
Hell, forget 2.1, go download and flash CM6. Much better than 2.1.

Porting HTC sense messaing app over to ASOP rom? - possible?

Is it possible to port the HTC sense messaging app over to STOCK ICS ASOP rom ?
Doubt it, you need the Sense frameworks for it to work
Sent from another dimension...
thanks don't hurt ya know?
If you place sense frameworks files in the folder, and use it for apps to recall. ?
Don't think so... you might have to ask someone else as ny knowledge is kinda limited with this sorta stuff

thanks don't hurt ya know?
No This is not an option. As stated Sense needs HTC framework, jar files and drivers to work. AOSP and CM roms are coded differently with different files, jars, and drivers. So it is not possible. If you want Sense features then use a Sense rom.

[Q] Can you extract HTC apps from sense rom and use on non-sense rom ?

I really like the look of the stock sense calendar. I find it better than the stock google calendar. I want to perhaps try shifting to non sense roms, such as CM when the nightlies become enough for a daily driver.
With that said, can I extract the calendar app and just reload it on the non-sense rom or will some tinkering have to be done with it ?

nope. all HTC apps require the sense framework to operate. you want sense stuff you gotta be on sense roms.

New HTC One owner

I bought this 32 GB HTC One T-Mobile phone which is unlocked, and will be here in a few days. It IS an M7, right? It has rooted stock firmware (not sure if Sense or AOSP) but will probably flash a custom ROM. I read up on the Google Edition bootloader/recovery, and read Vomer's guide as well. I'm not sure if I need to do the whole GE process before I flash a GE ROM, or which GE/AOSP ROM I should go with. It seems like most of them are Sense, so which ones are AOSP?
The one original android development forum is the asop Roms .
There are GE versions that will work with your current setup. The only reason to "convert to the GE version is for official ota updates.

The what? Oh, you mean the ORIGINAL One forums has AOSP ROMs? How do you tell the difference between the original One and the 2013 model?
How often are there OTA updates? Those are usually compiled into current custom ROMs, right?
In the case of the HTC One, would Sense be better over AOSP (not just because of the camera)? It would seem there are more Sense-based ROMs than AOKP/AOSP ones. I also see a few Sense/GE ROMs. What exactly does that mean? Is it just Sense with the additional AOSP settings and options? If I wanted the best camera, should I just stick with Sense?

There is a android dev and there is an original dev. Read up on the stickies and you'll get an explanation, after you read ask questions with direction so users won't have to type up 2-3 paragraphs explaining everything out .

Stock Sense 5 is very good. You can try AOSP ROMs and see if you don't miss the Sense features. The camera app has been ported to AOSP if I remember well so you don't loose Zoe/Highlights.
I'm stock and haven't planned on going o AOSP or other custom ROMs because I'm more than happy with Sense 5, except some things here and there, but the same can be said about any other ROM. the one thing I change was the launcher. It's good, but not as flexible as Nova, specially for adding more columns/rows to home screens.

Stock based ROM with customizable nav buttons?

I am looking for a stock based ROM, which there doesnt seem to be many of, that has the ability to change around the nav buttons. I really want to swap that recents and back button and I know we have been able to do it on AOSP based ROMs for a while now. However, AOSP based ROMs get significantly worse battery life from idle drain than the stock based ROMs on my phone at least so I would really like to find one with a stock base. Does such a ROM exist and I am just missing it?

well, if you wamt a real rom with the additions, then you have aosp as an option. real developers dont put up a stock rom because no source is provided. no source equals no building roms. some people learning how might use stock, but they dont build it, they just add add-ons to it. something like what you are looking for requires framework changes, so the rom has to be built from scratch. amyways, have you looked if xposed provides an option for you?

yea, xposed now works on lollipop. and yea, stock is only build by google. but its easy enough to add some things to it. and aosp is where all the code is provided for us to build our own roms. google dors have all the source, tbey just dump it into aosp for us.
