Im nakiid as a jay-bird.. so easy to slip in back pocket or shirt pocket its so small
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nolageek:
I was going naked until I get the CruzerLite case. It hardly adds any bulk by MAN does it improve grippiness. I was never a fan of TPU cases and always had my 4G caseless - but this case sold me.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mjhuffer:
Damn that 2 one hundredths of a cent really isn't worth anything now is it. Sorry it is just one of my pet peeves when people do that. The whole case/no case debate has a lot to do with what you do on an everyday basis. Obviously the phone looks so much better without a case but there is definitely going to be that one time you put it on your lap in your car and drop it in a parking lot when you exit. When I go out on the weekends, I would never dream of not having a case. The amount of times a case has saved me when I'm blacked out is extraordinary. It saves you not only from drops but can also be a minor savior from water damage if you react fast enough (see: asshole friend spills drink on table). I was wondering about the strength of the screen but considering I have to make this thing last two years (see: Sprint's horrible contract renewal periods), I will definitely be getting a screen protector. I heard these are the best no water installation ones - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007X6JQV8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 . They work great on my OG Evo so I ordered some for my LTE. They are getting great reviews as far as quality and the company is finally getting their logistics straightened out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Heinous:
These phones are big enough without a case, and the screens are pretty tough. I have yet scratch one, and I always place mine face down. Also, what's the point in designing a sleek phone if you are going to cover it up?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cyrene:
The point is preserving a $200+ investment. Without a case or a screen protector, or at least a body skin, the phone WILL get scratched if not dented or cracked. I had my phone for five days, it was completely babied, when I put my body skin on and there were minor surface scratches on the shiny black part on the back of the phone. This was just from setting it down on the counter. Take a look, I'm sure you'll see some. As far as the screen goes, gorilla glass is not full-proof. If it gets dinged hard enough, it can break and sand/dirt particles will scratch it as it did to my 3vo. If you decide to not cover it, good luck to you and its resale value I'm two years.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] celticking:
That might be worth doing. I don't like the glossy back or the red kickstand.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dasbklyn:
I switch between my otterbox and silicone cases.. I always feel uneasy going out with the LTEvo but I leave it naked at home, lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tb87:
I agree, but I have mine in a clear clip on case I found on ebay. It doesn't add a lot of bulk, seems like it would protect against a fall pretty well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] STIDRIVER:
Naked... phone is to thin and pretty to cover up. Plus, I'm careful with my phones. Now, I just gave my OG Evo to my Fiance (Lets just call her Droppy McWaterdamage)... Immediately got her a WW3 proof Otterbox.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrjasenr:
OMG, fell outta my chair laughing. I fukin love the name!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MinceMan:
Had a case for my hero years ago and hated it. The only thing I hate more then cases are screen protectors, aka make my screen ugly and barely usable through this scratched up screen protector that I never change. I mean for real, a couple of scratches are better then that crap. Some even get sand in them and then they scratch up the screen too!

i have a kid, defender case is a necessity.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 03orlandor6:
I have a pt case on mine, I know it wont help in extreme cases, but I'm typically very easy on my phones.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] celticking:
Loved a caseless phone for awhile. Had the body glove for awhile. Felt protected but made the thing huge. Threw down some cash for the barely there case and I think it made the phone much better. Has a nice premium feel while keeping the slim profile.

Just don't mistake me for a barely there marketing rep.

Sent from my EVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamfreak:
Wanted to buy a silicon case like I had on my OG Evo but when I got mine all they had in the store was an ugly pink one so I've been naked for two month now ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ABarnett:
I have skinomi carbon skin with skinomi screen protector. It doesn't give that much protection but its better than nothing and looks pretty good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rootlinux:
I have a full body shield from ZAGG but have ordered a black GreatShield.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MattySauce:
i have had a slim cover on my 4G LTE for 3 months now and want to go naked (went naked for nearly two years on OG evo with no problems, or even screen scratches). I just really want a matte black memory card cover instead of the shiny stock one before i ditch the cover.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
i just took my cover off, but i put a screen protector on...so does that mean my phone is just wearing a bra and panties :o
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rootlinux:
Got my Greatshield in and it fits well.

Very thin and light.

Coming from a thick case from otter on my 3vo it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. Lol

I will say if the two tone covering bothers you, a full body zagg will blend it together.

Makes both top and bottom kinda shiny but doesn't leave a lot of finger prints.

Looks pretty nice and will protect from scratches as well.

Hello for lg p500 there is 2 sense rom but data and mic not working in both rom can you help to solving that problems????btw great tutorial.
[Android Software Development] QuBe2:
in fact sensse porting is differnet from the tutorial showed it is a little bit more difficult and there are some libs needed that there is only for the devices you are porting to. so a general tread will not really work
[Android Software Development] Lord Inglip:
Well this is not my tutorial just found it on the internet so I don't know if it works
[Android Software Development] QuBe2:
why sharing things on the internet
[Android Software Development] Lord Inglip:
Because it's the internet. This guide was the only thing I could find.

Well you ported a htc sense One x rom to the Nexus S, so can you show us how you did it?
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Similar phone means the same chipset,processor and gpu??
[Android Software Development] Lord Inglip:
Yes it's better if the phones have the same hardware

[Android Software Development] a2441918:
My cm7 rom which i downloaded doesn't have a boot.img file.. So how to get it?? Is it the system.img got from a nandroid backup?? and the sense rom which the post refers to is the stock sense rom of the phone in a zip format or a modded one??
[Android Software Development] kssood:
Not working..stuck at boot logo :(
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
what phone r u using!?
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
You must also add all the proprietary libs and bins from your device. They are all at github.com/themuppets in proprietary_vendor_(whatever your manufacturer is). Download the gingerbread tree if you're porting gb or the ics branch for ics. It'll be under your device codename, so you'll need to know that (ex: evo=supersonic). Or if you don't want to download it, just go to the proprietary folder inside the device folder and copy all those files from a cm7 for gb/cm9 for ics. After that, you will need to hack the framework to support the telephony framework (ie: samsungril in samsung phones). I don't have any experience with that, since I just hacked in support for the nexus s 4g ril on my epic 4g and it worked.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Hey bro u mean to say that if i want to port sense to xperia x10, i should download htc evo's proprietary_vendor files and replace them with my core cm7 files??
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
No, you would want to download proprietary_vendor_semc (I think that's sonyericsson). Then add the xperiax10 files to the sense zip.

[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
I've never ported sense to tablets before, so I'm not sure. Can't hurt to try. One more thing to copy that I forgot above: the system/usr folder.

Can u pls tell me what sense rom to download to port sense to x10?? Both nexus 1 and desire have the same processor nd gpu as x10. Can u pls check their forums out and post me the best sense rom on gb??
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Tbh, they all should be fine. Typically its easiest to port sense 2.1 roms since they don't have the 3d effects. When the 3d effects are there, sometimes (at least on my nonqualcomm device), there are some weird graphics issues. Its all about personal preference. Pick one with your favorite features and favorite ui.
[Android Software Development] oguzhan mobile:
my system partition : 400mb

my system format type : ext3/ext4

Which do you recommend as a base(sense)?
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Bro, x10 uses an external kernel flashed from a ftf file. So there's no boot.img file for x10 roms.. can u pls help me out in this issue?? Nd htc hd2 has got sense running.. will that port work out??
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
ooh, that's tough. is there any way to extract it, modify it, then repack?
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Ya there is a way. See this link. Btw should we use a stock based kernel or a cm7 based one or a cm9 based one?
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
On gb roms use cm7 and on ics use cm9. Typically gb roms are easier to port for sense and tend to work better.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
bro wat abt this?? xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045824

You need to tale the stuff from cm7
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
ok i downloaded desire rom and i have my cm7 rom ready..next what to do?? what abt the boot.img file??

Here is my extracted kernel contents kernel_extracted

pls do the needful nd send me
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Download dsixda kitchen and follow the instructions in the OP. He explained it better than I can. That's the only part of the OP you should follow though. After that, copy your proprietary folders from the muppets github link I gave before. You will also need to modify the build.prop to use the same product information and ril files. So copy all the ro.product.board and ro.build.product lines from cm to sense and also copy ro.rild.libpath from cm. You'll need your usr folders, vendor folders, any ril files (lib/libril, bin/rild bin/pppd etc/ppp and any manufacturer specific ones).
[Android Software Development] :
You will also need to make sure that the rom you are using (you can use any rom) matches the android version of the rom. Other than that, also replace

libs

+libaudio.so

+libaudiopolicy.so

+libaudioflinger.so

and then remove libhtc_acoustic since it is not compatible with the kernel.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
bro the desire rom i downloaded has ext4 partition but x10 doesnt support ext4. pls can u help me out?? also i will post the build.prop's and updater script's for reference.

The name thunder is the files from the first post.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Usually we port from port rom to base rom.. here we have to copy files from base to sense rom right??
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Doesn't matter. Use your cm7 updaterscript.
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Right.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Okay bro i have packed my kernel according to the instructions given in fiirst post by editing init.rc. Next step what to do bro?? Pls pm me ur gtalk id bro
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
First, find out how big the system partition of your device is (by adding up the amount of free space and used space in /system in root explorer. You may need to do some symlinks of data to system (put stuff on /data if system isn't big enough, then symbolically link them to system). Then add the proprietary files from github.com/themuppets and add the usr files from cm.

My gtalk is xboxlover360@gmail.com
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Hey bro i have 353 mb n system totally and 465 mb in data partition dude.. is that okay for sense??
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Should be fine. Most sense roms aren't any bigger than that. Make sure each rom you port doesn't have over 353 in system. The size of the rom doesn't matter, but the size of the system does. If its a bit over, just delete some apps.
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Yea dude the sense i downloaded has only 202 mb in system.. so no prob.. may i kw is it really necesaary to change bootclasspath in kernel?? coz i changed t and flashed t but device wnt boot..

Well then download any light sense rom like this Desire z light sense rom.
[Android Software Development] :
Don't download the gingerbread sense 2.1 roms then.. they are much bigger than the froyo roms.

I suggest you start out with froyo htc sense roms.

[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Dude u musnt be :( tat u've got only 400 mb.. U should be :D to have 400 mb..most sense roms have a system partition less than 300mb only.. so dont wry..nd since u have a cm7 version for ur phone, it'll be easy to port i suppose.. but first change the lines n boot.img and pack the kernel.
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Permissions in init.rc and firmware files and etc/wifi files. You can copy the init.rc from my ROM if you want and also copy my libhardwarelegacy, vendor/firmware, system/firmware, etc/firmware, and etc/wifi and also make sure you have the right lib/modules files from your cm7 builds. Since we have the same chipset for WiFi, you can steal my stuff hopefully. I took the last two commits as a reference https://github.com/Chiledog/android_device_samsung_galaxys/commits/galaxysense

Only change the wifi stuff like dhcp and data/misc/wifi and the lines that are in init.aries.rc, find in your init.(devicecodename).rc and init.rc and change whichever one its in. If its just adding a line, you can probably add to either, but if it's modifying, find whichever one it's in for your device.
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Most sense ROMs (at least GB Sense 2.1) are not over 400 mb in system, so you should be fine. Just look in the zip you download how big the system folder is. If its 400 or less, it's ok. It doesn't matter how big the zip is... it only matters how big the system is and you can always cut files if you need to, like QuickOffice.apk or anything you don't need that takes up a lotta space.
[Android Software Development] oguzhan mobile:
zip package is 300mb but extrached pack in system bigger than 400 mb!
[Android Software Development] a2441918:
Remove useless apps
[Android Software Development] oguzhan mobile:
Ok. Ported rom. No boot. Because sense rom has MTD. But my kernel has support ext3/4. Any idea?

dude go to this link and download the proprietary files for ur phone via the cm codename.. then replace the files of ported rom with proprietary files downloaded
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Unrelated as long as you use the CM7 meta-inf folder and boot.img. My device uses YAFFS2 and no HTC one that I know of does, but it works for me. Also, there was a port awhile ago on the Epic with Samsung's proprietary RFS filesystem and BML partition map and it still boots. The file system is only relevant in the kernel and meta-inf folder.
[Android Software Development] oguzhan mobile:
but need init.rc edited in boot.img
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Correct, but all I'm saying is those are the only things related to partitions and file systems.

Anyone tried porting to a tegra2 device?
[Android Software Development] Wucaiting:
I want to port sense to Samsung i9003, but i just dont know which device is similar to mine?:(:confused:
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Hasn't been successful. Apparently since tegra2 doesn't have neon instruction set, but its coded into the sense libs. Though, your best bet would be to port from a tegra 3 sense device (one x), since the tegra drivers would switch from tegra3 to 2.
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Port from galaxy s 1 or nexus s.
[Android Software Development] Wucaiting:
Thanks, do u mean I should port the #sense4all#? What about porting sense 3.5 or other lower version of sense?

PS. nexus and i9000 just have sense4 no 3.5
[Android Software Development] xboxfanj:
Port 2.1. 3.5 has weird graphics issues on non andreno gpus. Both nexus and galaxy have 2.1. Galaxy s has qube2's build and kenia1234's. Nexus s gsm has qube2's.
[Android Software Development] Imperticus:

Not yet. I think it's not related to lockscreen and not necessary when the rom boots successfully. I'll try it. Thank you.

You need to so it can load the frameworks for the lock screen. Those are not the same as the aosp frameworks, so you need to change.
