JB and Sense? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I really want Jellybean but I am reluctant to not have the sense experience I love (especially the camera) so I was wondering if there was anything for the EVO that offers both... the One X seems to have quite a few so I am hopeful that the EVO has one.

Soon.

I'd think there would need to be a leak first. If there's no Rom leaked then there isn't anything to work on.

I'm also curious to see how the two will work together. I'd like to try JB also. But for the current JB roms that are out lack a few features id like to have such as beats audio and features of the camera

Thanks, I think I'll give it a try. Still may not be a daily driver due to the camera.

The siii camera is available for aosp roms, and pretty good

Just can't beat the sense camera software though. I hear jb and sense 4x have improved camera software. 29fps, better focus, ect
Sent from my EVO

I've been meaning to ask a similar question, this seems like a good thread to bring up a discussion about what parts of Sense you miss in AOSP.
For me, definitely the camera. Beats audio is another one.
You can get the Sense clock widget in a .apk that works in other launchers.
Is there anything else?

Shortcuts, sense has a buttload of shortcuts that I can't live without. Plus the ui is great looking. Also quick settings. Sure everything is in ics and jb as well but its just not as polished.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. What kind of shortcuts?

Im guessing he was referring to widgets.

I wonder if jb sense has the function where you could go to the gallery straight from the camera by swiping to the left. I loved that in stock jb.

Use cleanrom 1.5. It looks and feels just like JB. I love it!

MikLatte ROM Discussion Allowed?

If so, let's do it here! Anyone tried this ROM yet? I remember for the OG EVO, he made one of the best ROMs there was. I'm assuming based on the time this took to drop that it will also be very impressive. I honestly haven't flashed it yet, but I'm curious how it is so far. Thoughts?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Looks like at this point it's just an optimized base and he doesn't want to do a ton to it because of the possibility of a new OTA soon.
Exactly what are people expecting on a sense rom that isnt already done?
I know for a fact that when it does drop with the new base it's gonna put every other sense Rom to shame

Ehh.. I'm not saying it won't be a kickass rom, but I doubt that. There isn't much difference in performance in any sense rom. Some have awesome tweaks, some are smooth.. Some might give slightly better battery.
In the end, regardless of the sweeping statements people claim.. Sense isn't gonna get but SO smooth and battery isn't gonna get but SO good. I love Miks roms, just wish people wouldn't overdo it.

only on mikmik for now i think
Wait till he releases it with his miktweaks. Then viper 4g will have something to compete with
Sent from my EVO using Xparent SkyBlue Tapatalk 2
Aren't all the tweaks pretty much like Leedroid Tweaks?
***Cooking The Work With Them Gloves On, So The Junkies Can Get They Grub On***
leedroid tweaks are what's built into viper - amaikam has some similar tweaks (ran his roms on the OG - guy's a monster - can't wait to try out his full rom when its done), but if you're looking for the original leedroid, that would be viper.
I thought they were Leedroid. I will try to learn how to do my own roms etc when I get a pc. I've been dying to make a rom called Kao Rom with help from all the beast developers like Virus, Leedroid, Toast (maybe), Mikeyxda etc. Then I'll be a great developer too, & give back to the community.
***Cooking The Work With Them Gloves On, So The Junkies Can Get They Grub On***
leedroid tweaks were developed by j4n87, who developed them into that pokemon rom (whose name I forget), who then worked with viperboy and vin on incorporating those tweaks into into the viper4g rom for the lte (and the other team venom roms).
Good luck with your rom - but if you really want to give back to the community, you don't need to be a developer, or even have a team (Team Transcendent, I guess? lol). Just be respectful, help people out, and try to leave xda a better and more helpful place for people to learn.
I loaded it today.
Been running MeanROM 2.6.
It has a setting in the settings to choose how you want your soft buttons mapped which is pretty cool.
It has Google Now built in like MeanROM.
And it has Sprint HotSpot enabled that actually worked for a while (I wanted a Bluetooth Tether) and could not get anything to work at all but it worked on this ROM (for a while).
I went back to MeanROM 2.6 for now because the built in Google Now has the same issues as MeanROM 2.7 and up (which has Google Now) in that it completely breaks Voice Dialing over bluetooth.
It has all the Rosie Mods too.
It's definitely more than a "base".

I think he simply meant that Viper would not be the obvious choice that it now is. I doubt he literally meant a competition.

Modified HTC Sense 4.5 Camera for the HTC One X on Rezound

I can report that this camera is working for me on RezRom S4.
Even the options to use the volume keys to take pics works!
I'm sure this thing may have some bugs, but I haven't found any yet (other than the preview doesn't fit the screen right), and it seems less buggy to me than the ported Sense 4 cameras.
Link to original thread below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867966
It works fine on ViperRez; however, you do lose 720p front facing video, and the preview screen doesn't fit our whole screen size (Like mentioned above). It would be awesome if someone, dev or none dev, could get this working properly for our sense 4 ROMs.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-ldevelopers app
I also noticed that attempting to capture a picture while recording saves a pure white image, and causes the video to not save properly and makes the app lag when trying to stop recording.
Long story short, don't try to capture image while recording video.
sense 4.5? oh poor joelz
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Anyone know if our awesome devs have gotten this working 100% yet? Is it included in any of the current rom's?
I wonder if Newts Endeavor 1.0.0 4.5 ROM's camera have these bugs smoothed out, I havn't flashed it yet since we are waiting for a patch to fix an issue or two.
That would be awesome. I want that camera really bad. Do you know if it's in newts Rom?

[Q] What are considered the "best" HTC EVO LTE ROMS?

I'm currently on CM10.1 and love it, but what are the absolute best ROMs for this phone?

You would need to define your criteria for "best" first.
For me, "best" ROMs are ROMs that give me better speed, more features, and similar stability to stock. I also keep my devices for a pretty long time. So as they age I look to the community for support in keeping up to date. Hell, I still have a Tegra 2 tablet (Gtab) and my old Hero C laying around.
In this respect, I have had very good luck with ViperROM on the LTE. YMMV

I believe the apk has to be modded to work with sense. I tried restoring some aosp system apps on a sense rom and just got FCs. Clean ROM used to have a bunch of modded apks but I think it's been abandoned...haven't seen any out there for 4.1.2 yet.

Its more like what Rom is best for u.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
This is always going to be a question that never has the perfect answer. It depends on what you want/need. Go sense if you want the classic evo look and just want the basic experience its for people who don't care as much about making the device faster and better, they just want it to work and the only real reason they rooted it was to get rid of the bloatware. Keep it simple stupid. Honestly sense is fast, but aosp is is much more reliable and stable. Sense kernels have that small chance of corrupting your file system if and when your device crashes. It's a small chance but a chance none the less.
AOSP is by far the best for the ones who do want to unlock the devices full potential. AOSP (Android open source project) roms are more difficult to create and perfect but they give these devices more potential but its also up to the user to do his or her research. Don't flash or tweak even the slightest thing until you do your research and search xda and google. When you find a guide that of course isn't too old and you know you can trust it, read it over and over and bookmark it. Always search xda but never listen to the opinions of others until you test it yourself.
These rom creators work hard and they expect us to know what we are doing.
tl;dr - I will just say this, if your willing to spend more time to give you the best experience go AOSP. And if you go AOSP go CyanogenMod and nothing else. And for the kernel if you do wish to use a custom kernel I hightly recommend Komodo if you want an even better user experience.
Best rom is...
... the one that works best for you
FWIW. I love the ViperRom. Phone feels like it just "works" and, if I want, there are lots of customizations available.
That said, I just switched to HatkaLTE because I wanted to stay with a sense rom and it seems to me that the last update of ViperRom reintroduced the original rom's sensor problems on my phone. [I say seems because it's still not perfect, just better, on the HatkaLTE and maybe the hardware has developed a defect]. I can't say much about this rom yet because I haven't had it on my phone long enough and because I'm also playing around with different launchers at the same time.
Good luck!

IDK, but I'm really excited to install the new VIPERROM
Very, very excited. Hopefully it (re)fixes the proximity sensor problem, but if not, I have the init file all ready to solve the problem myself!
I have to agree with many of the posts, it's more of a personal taste question. I've run almost every ROM at some point, and I love the speed of AOSP, but like the features of Sense. There are a few key features that you lose on AOSP. After a whole lot of flashing, I've settled on SuperJelly Bareback, it strips out all the bloat of Sense while retaining those key features, and is almost spot on with the speed of AOSP. It's my happy medium. Good luck and happy flashing.
If you dont need Bluetooth, Sense 5. Otherwise Viper or Super LTE.

Who here will dump sense when HTC one GE comes out?

So since we have s-off and we'll be able to use the ruu or just flash a zip (hopefully) who here will be dumping sense and going with aosp? I will probably jump back and forth. What about you guys?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Nah, I like and prefer the look of sense and the older weather flip clock. It'd be nice to get the updates straight from Google tho. I'm hopeful in the near future the UI from sense and others will just be a skin that we can apply to an official Google device.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Depends on how much the camera is crippled in AOSP, but I'm certainly going to try it out.
<3 AOSP but the camera software will bet the deal breaker if any.
They said that it will produce comparable images to the Sense version, but obviously stuff like Zoes won't make it over to the AOSP camera. Really interested in trying it out, particularly when it comes to the current AOSP based ROMs and how it will improve them.
I like that it'll have beats all the time.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I just wish the firmware would leak. None of my friends who work at google have access to the android stuff.
The camera issues is what's keeping me from AOSP as it is, I'm ok with losing Zoe but if it can get close to Sense's camera quality, I'll bite.
I've never used zoe.

Yeah it's one of the biggest reasons I bought a One :good:
I picked the One over the S4 mainly because I find sense a lot more tolerable compared to TouchWiz though (especially with nova launcher and google keyboard) - until the GE is out.
Already dumped Sense, running CM.
Is there already any announcements if Google will make the rom available to everyone who wants to install it? Can't wait to get sense out of my phone.

Can the sense camera be installed on an aosp Rom? That's the only thing keeping me on a sense Rom right now.

Absolutely not lol...I honestly don't know it may. Be a way...but since the htc inspire 1080p recording was possible with continuous auto focus on sense roms....even aosp jellybean still can't do that...also I think in order to make full use of any htc camera...an htc sense kernel is required...ima noob tho
Sent from my MyTouch 4G Slide using xda app-developers app
i believe it needs the sense framework to function at all since it uses if anything links to sense api's like its gallery for instance. If it worked it would probably have been ported over to aosp by now, or at least had a beta testing thread.
That's kinda what I figured. Worth a shot though.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
installing it with your aosp gallery will probably cause problems just fyi. ahh yup wont work see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29446943&postcount=4
K well here another question. Can the sense 4+ camera be used with a sense 5 Rom?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
that i don't know but from what iv seen and used it is basicaly the same camera with zoe in it that doesn't work anyways with our phone. EDIT: also i just today installed the 4.3 camera and its just adds another gallery and another camera app and i love photosphere it works great here is a pick of my backyard for quality, i moved it too fast so it got kinda of confused lol.
4.3 camera apk is actually pretty solid and has 1080p video recording
If you compare quality of the AOSP camera and Sense camera even rudimentary there's no comparison on the quality.
