"Open Sense" is just the SDK not the source code for sense :rolleyes:

You get an "A" for effort my friend.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
I knew that.... I was just testing you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dark_Knight2:
Lol. I was hoping you were. :p:thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Hey buddy!

Nice to see you making so far.

Few questions tho.

Are you sure that kernel is OK?

Were you able to boot to recovery after flashing it?

Is it possible we missed something when I made a repack for you?

May there is more to it than changing BOOTCLASSPATH?

Let me know what you think and if there is more I can do to support this project.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
I'm glad I didn't get rid of this phone! Development is going to kick up again :D

Sense should rock on this phone. Sucks I won't be able to flash anything for 8 days. (Vacation) :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
The button issued bothers me the most.. It's because the rom is still using the international sgs2 kernel, which only has 3 buttons, so it screwed everything up. Agat has been hard at work with the kernels, but so far ours keep giving us strange errors.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
How bout the new kernel he posted from source?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elprincipejay:
I think its a TW kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Yes, and these kinds of ports work best with cm kernels.

I am going to get better with kernels this weekend, since almost every port will need a custom one. I really want to get a new jelly bean kernel and maybe help mijj out. There wont be much talk from me this weekend, most fixes will come with a new kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
If someone wants to take a video, yes. I am at work and can't flash it.nor.take screenshots

Since SD card doesn't work most screenshot apps won't function normally either
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
Should i be flashing this with Rogue ET Recovery 5.0.2.7? Or should i be using something diff?

*Edit* Flashed it through Rogue 5.0.2.7 anyway, and it didnt boot past the dream kernel logo, just sat at black screen, and upon odin restoring EL29 im stuck in a bootloop, trying to odin again to see if i can fix it. May have been a bad dl, but i used my pc for the dl so we'll see whats up. SG can you post the Md5 so we can double check it before we flash?

*Edit 2* Still boot looping after second odin attempt, pretty sure my phone is confused now haha

*Edit 3* Was using No Data Odin's. My first attempt at doing full restore el26 installed and booted perfect, and rom flashed perfectly on first attempt.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
I got the same black screen, and eventually it booted, scared the **** out of me though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
How long before it booted? mine sat for like 10 mins
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
Ok so here are some screenshots... The good old way for now, haha! :D

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

Only 2 minutes or so. My first download was bad though, it was only 415 MB instead of the whole 420 or something like that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Did you flash with a GB Rogue Recovery or the early ICS Rogue recoveries he made?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffrey567:
So using a kernal made for our device will allow for the radios to work?....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
No icons in the dock?! I must have done something wrong before I uploaded..

Sorry guys, there's no boot logo.. Prolly should have said that earlier :silly: I am guessing it is kind of like the custom bootanimation mod.. kernel needs to support it..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
Also, just a suggestion, but I think you should call this a preview instead of an alpha. When you get a few more things working then call it an alpha. When I flashed this I had dock icons he must have had a bad flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
Yep, and wasn't able to place any icons on the dock either. The app drawer was also weird. I assume that this is a port from a phone with higher resolution because there were apps that were missing because they didn't fit in the app drawer. Kind of hard to explain, but if you look at the picture of the app drawer you can see that the top of some icons are peeking out - those are all inaccessible.

Still, great work this will definetely develop to something nice. Great work Swamp, I'm sure it will be worth the wait!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] st1ngr4y:
Yep pretty much the user interface is different.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
Its all about the look man! Lol the browser is more fluid, the camera has its own functions and stuff like that. But mainly its the look and feel of sense. Sense also makes syncing all your social media and contacts from email etc easier. Plus I like the sense 4 keyboard
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
I flashed it through EL29 Rogue Recovery, im sure it worked the first time, i waited a little longer the second time and it booted, i just got scared and odin'd right away haha.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
Looks amazing with our Super Amoled Plus screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Thank you for your work on this Swamp. I know you're a busy person, it's good to see some progress on this project. I will try this out once I get my E4GT back from Samsung.

Long story short I bricked while trying to port this because I was in a hurry to flash back to a working rom and did not Odin back to a safe kernel. Lesson learned... Always Odin back to a safe kernel before flashing anything!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingcaliyone:
Will it b themed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
I really, really doubt it. That would kind of defeat the point of Sense, because with Sense it is the UI that we are after and no the performance. So more or less it is being ported for its "theme".
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
No but I'm sure others will try to ask for permission to make slimmed sense ROMs that will be themed and such... that would be cool. ;-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingcaliyone:
I was thinking like % in the battery and not so much of the stock looking keyboard. Nothing that will take away from the sense experience but also add uniqueness to it. Like different icons ...you guys no what I'm trying to say
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
It depends on how much of a custom ROM it will be. I don't know that much about development for Android, but from my understanding anyone could make a mod for things like battery percent, etc. Things like custom icons can be easily changed with the launcher so I don't know if anyone would really make a mod for that.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Well, I did it. I have been sitting on an upgrade for about 3 weeks.. picked up my s3 yesterday, I am loving it. That also means that my e4gt is about to take a beating from all of the test roms its about to receive..

About themes, no. I will not be themeing it, I prefer stock everything and always have. If other people want to theme down the road I could care less, anyone can do anything they want with this rom. Got to skip work today for my senior pictures, so I will see if I can learn anything about building/repacking functional kernels :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Well I had multiple sense ports on the nexus s, including tmobiles mysense, and htc has never had an issue with it.. If I was asked to take any of these ports down I would instantly..

Maybe these ports are flying below htc's radar, or maybe they take it as a compliment that we want sense on our samsung devices..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thewadegeek:
Re-quoting this. Do you people realize how hard you are making it to keep up on this project? What if some of were actually HELPING and not just spamming random ****. Post a bunch of smiley faces and saying "I want to try this" give's ZERO benefit to the thread or project. The thanks button is at the bottom of every post for a reason.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:
note the thanks under thewadegeek's comment. It's a development thread, not a support thread. that thread, however, can be found here.

I do enjoy the excitement, but if there is 3+ pages filled with "omg i cant wait to try this" I will have to ask you guys to tone it down. I am very laid back with this kind of stuff, but when it gets to the point where I have to sort through multiple pages to find questions or bugs, it starts to become a pain.

So please, have fun with this thread and have some conversations with us, but try and keep the useless clutter to a minimum. So far it's been great, but it is slowly losing its format. I would really hate to have to bother jay to have this thread cleaned up. So please help us both out. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Havent messed with it much since yesterday. I need to learn more on kernels before I can continue, since I cant progress without a new kernel. Agat has been helping me a ton with kernels and still is, I just feel like its time for me to contribute a little more, and put less responsibilty on those kernel devs as they have their own time consuming projects.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
So atm it's a kernel thing preventing everything from gelling together? Im a total dev nubcake so im trying to understand the hangups.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] egzthunder1:
I have done some minor spring cleaning of the last few pages (about 30 posts give or take). The OP has stated that the thread must be kept on topic and DEVELOPMENT ONLY. Please, if you want to thank the OP, do it with the "Thanks" button and avoid making "Thanks" posts. As always, stay away from ETA posts or useless smiley posts.

Keep this dev oriented please.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] treetolber:
I might be talking out of school but there is a kernel dev who goes by anthrax. He has developed kernels for sense devices, in particular the Evo 3D. Not sure if that helps or not but thought I would throw that out there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Khaaaan:
I think you can find him on rootzwiki... Last time I saw his twitter he was all anti xda. So. Maybe you can find him there?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
I got the ROM to boot on my third attempt at flashing. I haven't done a whole lot of development myself, all I've done is follow directions and such.

I was baffled by the buttons being a little off because of the software from the international GS2, but I know how to fix it. The thing is I need either some network connection or a working USB connection in order to do so, meaning I can't do anything at the moment.

I've done quite a bit of messing with config and framework files, so I could lend a hand on that front, but I'm kinda new at this. Anyone who knows a way to sideload a copy of ROM Toolbox on this ROM, send me a PM about it and I'll post my findings and let you all know what's up.

Really excited for this ROM, and I'll be willing to test whatever you need. Keep up the good work, Swampy.

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 AM ----------

I can't get a file manager to work properly, unfortunately, so I'm at a standstill. If anyone can post an edited version of the ROM with a file manager included, or a file manager in a .zip file that will work properly, I've got a bunch of things I'd like to try.

For now though, I can't even get a keyboard to work right :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
You can just move the ROM Toolbox apk into the system/apps folder of the zip and once you flash it'll already be installed as a system app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
I did not know that. Thanks for the tip.

Try selecting the blue sg1 on the download page. That will take you to 6 folders and select the folder on the top left. It might take a few trys before it downloads
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:
anyone have any luck getting past the setup?

EDIT: Nevermind
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
I have to load everything into the phone in another ROM before flashing.

Internal memory works fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
Any updates on this SG?

I'm sure he hasn't forgotten about us lol also sure he'll post the update as soon as there is one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
It seems to be at a standstill until a new kernel is built. And Swampy doesn't seem to like building kernels. I'm stuck where I am at the moment, so I sincerely hope he knows more than I do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Custodian:
Swampy doesn't have to build a kernel if he'd just ask a more experienced kernel dev for assistance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
Maybe you guys should reach out to Chris41g (I think that's him name and sorry if I butchered it) to help with the kernel?

Fingers crossed!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
From what I understand he has asked another dev. The issue is the other dev has another major project he's working on at the moment and doesn't get much time for anything else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
I hope he's still working on it :(

There are screenshots. Clearly in some capacity it runs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
True.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] G.Newton:
Coming from an HTC Evo 3D to the E4gt, this is nice to see. Sense is the best custom Android UI imo. Will be eyeing this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kyamora:
I totally agree with that. It's the easiest custom ui to look at by a landslide. I've never owned an HTC device, but it was a tough decision between this and the evo 3d.

I havent had htc sense since the photon came out i miss it

Build it yourself and share it! Devs are not obligated to share anything they create until they feel it necessary and stable enough.

Ics kernel is not opensourced yet. Today, I'm gonna help him build a gb kernel so we can work on sense 2.1.

Edit: this may be wrong. Either way though, we will work on a kernel tonight for sense (probably 4 since I think the ics kernel source is released).

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
Hello everybody!

Had some down time in a hotel today so I decided to play around with Photoshop. I created a sort of banner for Sense 4! Check it out, let me know what you think! I decided to base it off the Sense Clock since the Sense Clock is one of the most recognizable things about Sense in my opinion.

If Swamp wants use it, he can, if not, whatever, it was simply a product of my boredom :p

Once this ROM is fully up and running I plan on using this in my sig! If anybody wants a copy with different weather, or something else, let me know, can't make any promises, but I'll try and get it done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
That's AWESOME but I think E4GT should be in place of HTC :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
+1 there should be some signification that its on a Samsung device :D

I had the same thought, but was thinking its sort of like "Brought to you by HTC and Swamp Goblin".

You have a lot of thanks so I felt like you would help out so I wanted to thank you in advance :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rizdog23:
Stuff like this is what makes me love XDA. You devs do a great job making the name EPIC 4G Touch fit what this phone is. I only wish that I could do what you guys do and you deserve to be paid. If I had a credit card I would certainly donate...but let me at least say thank you for all the hard work you do and for all that you have given this community. Just when I thought development was slowing down(haven't flashed a new rom in about 2 weeks) something like this comes out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Agat said something similar a few pages back.. We appreciate the thanks, but I feel as if it should wait until there is something to really be thankful for.. What we have as of now is a good start, but I along with many users won't be satisfied until we can post on xda from sense 4.0....:silly:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Yes it seems perfect, I was able to boot to and from recovery multiple times. One thing that I would like to try is maybe using a cm9 kernel, err aosp kernel, as that is the kernel I used in my previous port.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Today is your lucky day. :laugh:

I've downloaded full CM9 source code and did build boot.img yesterday.

Didn't try it tho. Was just checking if it's works.

I can try to make a boot.img today with my recovery and any other changes/edits you might need to make it work with Sense.

I'll be home in an hour or so and can look into it.

Hit me up via PM or on Gtalk so we can make it happen. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Hopefully this can be booted! If we had the ics source for our device would that be mored useful in getting a booting sense port?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fryingpan0613:
You got sense 4.0 running on jb?!

But seriously, it's not in the op....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Haha no.. but it lives........ :p For some reason I only have the android tools, not the sdk, so I have to install to take screenshots.. I will update the OP when I am satisfied with the rom's alpha functionality, and I still need to talk with agat to see if we can do some more tweaks..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thewadegeek:
Guy's notice the tag that says [DEV] and "DEV ONLY"? That typically means it's for development discussion, and that non-development related posts are supposed to be kept to a minimum. The thanks button works just fine when you want to say thank you, and then it's much easier for the rest of us to follow when we aren't reading a bunch of thank you's looking for the real meat of the thread.

@OP Feel free to state otherwise if I was out of line.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Nope you were not out of line, this needed to be said, thank you.

I have noticed that the way you guys do it in this phone section is typically with a post in the general section for general chat.. I personally do not like that. When I upload the updates and you guys are able to flash, I would like to have any issues or bugs posted here. This format seemed to work for me on the nexus s when I posted roms, so I will try it here.

Bugs, issues, questions.. will be okay. If you want to say thanks, hit the member's button. If you want to chit chat more in depth about the rom, let me know and I can open a thread in the general section.

Anyway, I will give one eta. Screenshots of sense 4.0 on my epic touch will be uploaded TONIGHT. Only serious eta you will ever get :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
Got into rosie, scrolled through settings, used lockscreen widget icon things, applied the alternate sense skins, placed some widgets (sketchy), and everything seems smooth so far. The normal way I take screenshots (ddms via adb) doesnt recognize the screen, so screenshots are pending until I can sideload an app.

Sense 4.0 is amazing on this device, I can't wait to upload it for you guys. This is only an alpha build and it is running beautifully.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sbeekman:
Okay sorry a little vague on the eta discussion are u gonna upload this tonight and release it?? I'm sure many people will not care if its in alpha state as they went through cm9 alpha state and aokp theirs a ton of people that wanna see this!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] swamp goblin:
I don't think I will release it tonight, I want to get a somewhat usable build. I hate Eta's, but I would like to get something uploaded by Wednesday night.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jewid:
Good deal, i know we have smart flashers here but this is like pre alpha atm so i wouldnt want to flash it unless you are testing it
