This Xposed Module allows installation, usage and integration of HTC Sense apps on any ROM/device!
This Xposed Module removes the message "Unauthorized device - Your device is not compatible with this app." from HTC BlinkFeed/Sense Home and other Sense apps.
It makes it possible to use Sense apps with any ROM, and integrates Sense features into pure AOSP ROMs.
Requirements
An Android 5.0+ ROM.
Xposed Framework.
For Sense Home to work properly on Marshmallow, you need to manually install it and the HTC Service pack to /system/priv-app (move folder from /data/app using a root explorer program.
However, for some features, an AOSP ROM is needed.
Features
Removal of "Unauthorized" message:
Sense Home
HTC Camera
HTC Themes (feature of Sense Home)
My HTC/Login app
HTC Mail
HTC Gallery
The currently supported social plug-ins are:
- Facebook for HTC Sense
- Twitter for HTC Sense
- Google+ for HTC Sense
- LinkedIn for HTC Sense
- Instagram for HTC Sense
All of them in their newest version from Sense 7/Android 5.1 (7.00.4xxxxx/7.00.5xxxxx).
Other things:
- Camera: Allow saving to external storage.
- Gallery: Allow accessing/modifying different storages.
- Themes: Use HTC Themes to theme your AOSP system!
- Theme editor: You can edit existing HTC theme colors, and theme your systemUI without using HTC Themes.
- IME: Use the newest version of the Sense Keyboard.
AOSP Themed Apps:
- SystemUI
- Settings
- Google Keyboard (WIP)
- Play Music (WIP)
- Calculator
- Dialer
- Contacts
Download:
You can download this module from the official Xposed Repo page.
Changelog:
Version 3.0 pre1
General:
• Complete UI Redesign. Added navbar, new sections, material animations, and launch screen.
• Add option to create HTC Permission file needed for play store downloads of HTC Apps.
• Add quick restart for Sense home to apply some settings.
• Added "quick reboot" and "reboot" options to app menu. "Quick reboot" tries to f/c hooked apps, and is not a real or hot reboot. Usually good for previewing themes, etc. "Reboot" provides regular and hot reboot options.
Complete overhaul of theme section:
• If themes are enabled, after selecting a HTC theme, Sensify will launch, allowing you to customize theme pallete colors.
• There are now FOUR color options. These correspond directly to HTC Theme elements.
• Each color option has a custom-designed color picker preference.
• Add option to generate theme pallete from currently applied wallpaper.
• Add option to automatically take current theme and write it to HTC theme. Allows for customization of HTC theme values like never before!
New Downloads section:
• Due to some devices not ever being able to download HTC APK's from play store, we have added a custom download section. This will automagically search APKMirror for the latest version of the specified HTC APK and download it. No need to go anywhere else.
Settings section:
• "Show log" section themed to match Material UI.
• Added "Save and send log" feature, allowing easy collection and sharing of Sensify logs.
Sensify now enables the following HTC Apps:
• Sense Home and widgets (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Instagram)
• HTC Clock
• HTC Weather
• HTC Input (and language packs)
• HTC Gallery
• HTC Camera
• HTC Browser
• HTC Scribble
Additionally, the following applications will be themed by Sensify (some still WIP):
• SystemUI
• Settings
• Google Dialer
• Google Contacts
• Google keyboard
• Google Music
Version 2.1
Add support for HTC Sense 7 keyboard.
Fixed a problem with BlinkFeed Facebook plugin.
Fixed some UI problems.
Add more helpful logging.
Added ability to rotate Sense Home (has some small UI bugs currently, but works perfectly besides that).
Version 2.0:
Added support for external storage for Camera and Gallery.
Added support for HTC Themes for AOSP system apps!
Added Play Store install support for HTC apps.
Changed app name from "HTC Authorizer" to "Sensify".
Version 1.1:
Added support for the most recent Play Store version (status 07/2015) of HTC Sense Home.
Added support for Sense social plug-ins. The following are supported:
Facebook
Twitter
Google+
LinkedIn
Instagram
All of them in their newest version from Sense 7/Android 5.1 (7.00.4xxxxx/7.00.5xxxxx)
(but older versions may also work).
Reporting bugs:
Because of the nature of this particular plugin reporting bugs is going to be quite tricky. To help with this, we ask that you provide the following with a bug report:
1. What type of device are you using. Please specify carrier, manufacturer, model, and currently installed ROM and Android Version.
2. What HTC application are you having an issue with?
3. Describe what happens. Please don't say "HTC Music doesn't work". That is not informative, and we will most likely ignore you. Try, "HTC Music is giving an error stating "Not authorized: This application is not compatible with your device.". Often times, we can find the source of the "incompatibility" by using specific error messages to trace back to the originating method...so being specific helps.
4. Attach a logcat. Again, this often makes the difference between "kinda" having an idea of where to look and knowing exactly what is causing the problem. We have logging built into the module, so if something somewhere is complaining, this is where we will be able to see what and why.
5. Be patient with us. We are just two regular people on opposite sides of the planet working at this because we enjoy the challenge, and because there's no good reason why these programs shouldn't be used by everybody. We don't have every device on the planet to test on, so it's up to you to provide us the information needed to help fix your issues and make this module as awesome as possible.
Thanks/Credit:
Mad props to Xspirit, who's excellent apps can be found below. Without these, a lot of what we've been able to accomplish would have been a heck of a lot harder to do. He did the initial work of sorting through the various apps and finding what needed to be tweaked to make them work.

Well done guys!
I know I've been hounding @digitalhigh about this stuff and inundating him with bugs. Thanks for working on this!!
One quick question and please excuse my ignorance. Would CM12.1 fall under the Pure AOSP category?

That's a tricky question. As CM12 has it's own theme engine, there may be incompatibility issues.
You're welcome to try and let us know!
I'll give it a shot after the gym. I'll make sure to post back. Thanks
ThumbsUp for @Woalk and @digitalhigh !!!
Loved your ROM, and will probably love this module!

When ever I try signing in. It gives me a toast animation saying unable to sign into HTC SERVERS. In order to download themes you have to be signed in. I do have the latest HTC service pack installed. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

The module may actually allow Sense apps to run on non-Sense ROMS, but the theme feature utilizes aspects of Android that only exist in Lollipop builds.
As I always say, give it a whirl, let us know what works and what doesn't.
requires Android 5 or 5.1 Lollipop :crying:

Hey hey, sadly I am having the needing to log into google *bug*
I am running a nexus 6 with benzo ROM. What I am trying to install is the HTC service pack, the one the app asks you to upon launch. When I click install after 2-3 second it will say authentication is required and that I need to log in to google. Than the playstore page freezes. Attach is a log...I paused it after few seconds of the occurrence...need more let me know.

Note: This rom needs to be updated to more recent files, I plan on doing it in the next week or so. It is plenty usable though (No GSM support though)
I am releasing my first barebones for the D2G. It is based off Revnumber's nightlies. This build requires you to be on any GB D2G rom.
Updates Between 1 to 4
Switched to GB kernel
Increased battery life via changes to CM as well as the switch the GB kernel.
Much faster!
Build is much smaller in size too (Download is 77 MB)
EGL and Bluetooth are fixed
Added keymap fix to fix certain keyboard and lockscreen issues
Any other additions inside CM between 08/02 to 08/30
Camera zoom is a none bug along with possible DSP issues (Camera zoom works if you enable zoom from volume buttons)
I have removed:
From Bin/Xbin folders
IRSSI, VIM, and TCPDUMP
From Fonts
I removed the CM one for Chineese (unless Droid fallback has some support)
arabic support. (The reason is not out of hate, but because I have seen these rarely used and they added 4MB to the build size)
From Apps
All CM themes (Left theme support in though so you can add what you want or download them, I use synergy personally)
Stock MMS, Email, Calander and Calculator (Left provider apk's in so you can use replacements or add back in and have it work fine)
Download UI
a few other apk's I can't remember.
From Lib's
Removed SwypeCore
Added auto odex support to /data/
Updated to Go Launcher EX 2.39
Removed from Gapps
G Books , G Talk, Quicksearch, Setup Wizard, LatinIME tutorial.
Changed Market to newest Market available.
All thanks go to Revnumbers, x13thangelx, Gasai Yuno, Asphyx and the rest of the developers for CM4D2G!
I HIGHLY recomend using all the GO apps and widgets as replacements for removed features. For email I use K9 email. All removed features are able to be added back in with other apps or by adding them from Rev's official build. This is meant to be the minimum for people to add specifically what they want.
Download for Release 4
http://www.mediafire...4w27217877wh711
Gapps barebones (Mainly for Market) Note: These did not update because latest gapps package is causing bootloops for me for some reason.
http://www.mediafire...jpbi877rhnc0hjr
Reserved
Also, please donate if you think my ports have made your phone a better device! Not asking out of greed but because I have spent so much time on my roms (quite literally if I quantified it, I would have almost a months worth of workdays in it)

Both links are broken, can you please update? I am having issues with CM7 and would like to try out this port/rom. Thank you.
Crap, Copy pasting straight from rootzwiki truncated the links. I will fix them sometime tomorrow.
Can you tether on this rom? I know that verizon's "built in app" is well build into the OS but i have a feeling if someone does enough digging they can find a way to block it from alway taking control of tethering.
any word on the new links?
I would like to try this out.
Is it possible to add the code lines related to gsm from bikedude's cm9 and make gsm voice and data work on this rom?

Added a host of new tweaks courtesy of JRummy16

2.4.13 (contains changes from 1.29.13):
Added Aroma installer. All "custom" options now install as designed.
Not sure if I mentioned it last week, but I updated the MIUIHome's default layout to take "Talk" out of that stupid "recommended" folder and just put it on the desktop. Also took and put "themes" and "settings" into the "tools" folder on the main page and changed the layout so that they're all in the same row. In the future, I plan on switching the MIUI search widget with the google one...just haven't gotten there yet.

Moved Gmail, Maps, Kernel Tuner, Gamecenter, MiuiVideo, and Goo.im to the "optional" category as well, and set their install location to /data/app instead of /system/app to allow for removal if desired.
Wipe menu - for future use, you can choose to leave data sections untouched and do a dirty flash.
Added 9S weather, 2 different FLV players, TrevE's wifi tether app, Playstation certification, and Online Nandroid backup app as optional installs (in addition to others mentioned).
Updated to 3.3 MAC kernel.
Fixed boot animation sometimes causes OOM issues due to size by deleting half the frames used.

How to report a bug the right way
Allright...
Been getting a lot of bug reports lately, and the vast majority of them don't have any kind of system information included whatsoever. People just blurt out stuff like "Camera ain't workin'", and expect me to go "Oooooooh. Your camera don't work. Please, allow me to customize you a script to fix it based on that thorough explanation of the issues."
To be fair, there are some issues that may be simple to replicate and don't require a lot of information to track down. Stuff like "This program is missing" or "the cap button backlights misbehave from time to time".
For all the other stuff...there is a right way and a wrong way to ask for help.
The wrong way involves complaining about the issue while providing as little info as possible. Degrading the ROM itself is a nice touch. You know, like "This POS won't boot."
That, my friends, will get you one reply...which will be me telling you you'd probably be better off using a ROM that doesn't require common sense to run.
The RIGHT way to ask for help involves the following:
1. Provide as much information about your system as possible. This includes, but is not limited to, the following pieces of information:
a. What Hboot version you are using.
b. Your S-off status.
c. What recovery you're using.
d. What firmware you're using.
e. A detailed description of the issue. When it happens, the frequency, anything that you do that causes it to happen...tell me what I need to do to make it happen on my phone.
Additionally, for issues related to hardware (camera, data, screen, wifi) - and hell, for any issue, it is more often than not a good idea to include a logcat.
A logcat is like a system log...it runs as soon as your phone starts up, and it tells me when something goes wrong so I can try to figure out why. A logcat will make the difference between me yelling at you, and me being very grateful for your thoughtful and well-constructed request for assistance.
Now, for some odd reason, it seems that every time I ask someone for a logcat, they make a face like this at me, , and then vanish off the face of the planet.
Contrary to what you may think...bugs bother me. A lot. The majority of nights end with me lying in bed thinking about the first thing I'm going to attempt to fix tomorrow.
SO, when you post saying something doesn't work, and then I say "get me a logcat, please", and you switch to a Sense ROM and don't look back...it helps nobody.
With all that said...below is a link to some very simple instructions for how to install Android SDK and do a logcat. It's pretty damned simple. If you can follow instructions for flashing a ROM, then you should be able to do this.
http://www.shahz.net/android/adb-installation-and-how-to-logcat.html
If THAT is too daunting for you, then the next step would be to get Alogcat from the market.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en
Alogcat is even easier. Something crappy happens...you open alogcat, save the output, and send it to me.
Can we do that? Please? I'm so tired of asking for a logcat around every turn. Help me help you.
Cool, thanks! I'm DL'ing now. Quick question: What is the default kernel for this rom? I plan on flashing Chad's, but was just curious. Also, I have a feature suggestion: for the default MIUI launcher, would there be any way to add a 5th row? I know there was a mod on XDA for this a while back, but it became incompatible months ago.
Anyway, thanks for the hard work. I'm especially excited to try out the VC control script on this, that was a great idea.
Edit: Nice boot animation!
Well then. Here we go. Fire up boot manager!

Cool, thanks! I'm DL'ing now. Quick question: What is the default kernel for this rom? I plan on flashing Chad's, but was just curious. Also, I have a feature suggestion: for the default MIUI launcher, would there be any way to add a 5th row? I know there was a mod on XDA for this a while back, but it became incompatible months ago.

The default kernel is still Tiamat. I haven't checked to see which it is right now, but I will throw in one that supports the higher OC in a future release.
I can also check on the 5th row bit for default MIUI launcher.
Thank you for your help DH,
Please don't forget to add the date in the title so it makes it easier for us to know when updates are posted.
Thanks.
More miui I love it

Duly noted.
so this is 2.3.23 as it says. Does that mean its miui ics? and your camera works??? i already downloaded for bootmanager
Looking into the layout for the default launcher, you can change rows/columns in the launcher settings. Rom has been stable so far, runs pretty smooth.
Edit: If anyone's performance is laggy, I noticed that the default awake governor was set to conservative. When I moved to ondemand, the rom became much more smooth.

I believe that it's still the Gingerbread base, but with some ICS features baked in. I'll be updating the OP eventually here with images, the official changelog, as well as everything I've done.

Yes, sorry, that was the last change I made last night before compiling. I had it set to intellianthrax, which caused the issue I described in the OP.

That will definitely help catch people's attention.
Either way I will be trying this rom out the moment I get home from work/school.

I stand corrected. The changelog I looked at showed the features for both builds, I just wasn't paying attention.
Sorry for the confusion.
I'm just curious - has anybody had a chance to try bluetooth yet??

Didn't try bluetooth, but I noticed initial setup when signing into your google account FC's.
the only problem I've seen yet, is widget sizing. My Widgets aren't showing correctly, they usually stretch to the edge of the homescreen. Now however, they are shrunk a little. I think its a qHD bug?

Flashing RUU's is the ultimate way to brick your device if done incorrectly. Make sure you know what you're doing before you attempt this. At the moment, the files is named GlobalRuuPH98IMG.zip. You will need to delete the "GlobalRuu" part of the name and place that file on the root of your sd card when you're ready.
As usual, the only person to be held accountable for anything you do to your phone is yourself.

The Following is a list of questions that I have been asked across all of my roms. Some may apply to this rom, some may not.
Q: "How do I configure wireless tether to work properly?"
A: "Tap menu, then settings.
Change the Device profile to HTC Resound
Change the Setup Method to Netd (master)
Enabling WiFi Encryption is your choice, however, I would recommend it (password protect your hotspot!)
Enabling the encryption will allow you the next option of creating a password for your network.
Changing the SSID is the name of your network hotspot that you want to show as an available network.
You can enable access control if you like but it is not necessary.
Scroll all the way down and check off "Enable routing fix"
That's it! Ready to go."
Q: "Battery percentages do not match what the system shows when power is low or what is showing on the statusbar or lockscreen. Can we fix this?"
A: "This is a known HTC issue and there is not a fix for it at the moment. Your best bet would be to stick with the lowest percentage the system indicates is the remaining power for your battery. There is a 1% battery mod that attempts to give a more accurate reading but it doesn't always work."
Q: "Is this for CDMA only or can we GSM users use this rom?"
A: "I have conveniently included a GSM patch built specifically for this particular rom ONLY and is listed in the Downloads section of post #2 which will enable full functionality of my rom on your network"
Q: "Weather syncing is not working and ends in a force close. Is there a fix?"
A: "I have removed all weather functionality of the rom but I created a flashable zip to add back the missing elements to make it work for you. This zip is located in post #2 of my downloads section"
Q: "Does this ROM suffer from choppiness of the homescreen like many others?"
A: "The choppiness of the homescreen is due to the default settings within Apex Launcher. Users can tweak their individual homescreen transition and scrolling settings to fine tune it's performance to their liking and nearly do away with any lag or choppiness resulting from the preset. A good first start would be to change the wallpaper scrolling to fixed"
Q: "Is this rom for S=OFF ONLY people, or can we S=ON people flash your rom?"
A: "At the moment, I have not created a rom specifically for S=ON flashing. However, if you are on the last few ICS firmware and have the last couple kernels released from the leak, you should be just fine. If you were on an older ics firmware, you will need to flash the kernel's provided in ZHP Pilot's first couple posts after flashing the rom. You will then reboot into hboot where you will need to follow the directions and flash the kernel"
Q: "I am still on Gingerbread firmware. Is this rom old firmware friendly? If not, will the Gingerbread patch I have from another rom work with yours?"
A: "It is not old firmware friendly. However, you can use a Gingerbread Patch from another rom yes. If you do not have one, for the time being it should be listed in the first couple posts by ZHP Pilot. You will also need to make sure you flash the ICS kernel listed in the FAQ above this one"
Q: "In order to use the rom previous to yours, I had to flash the Gingerbread patch. Now that I have flashed your rom, I get thses reboots every 15 seconds. Why is this happening?"
A: "Since you are on the older firmware, you are going to have to flash this patch each and every time you switch to a newer fimrware rom. That will fix the issue"
Q: "I flashed your rom but while I'm on it, it reboots after about 20 seconds every time it gets back to the rom. Why is it doing this?"
A: "You are on the old Gingerbread Firmware or not on an ICS firmware new enough. Either RUU your way to the latest leak or use a Gingerbread patch"
Q: "What is a 5-Point lock?"
A: "It is an AOSP lockscreen that allows for 5 different preset shortcuts to be displayed in the lock ring"
Q: "Is there any way to change the shortcuts to other apps on the 5-point AOSP lockscreen?"
A: "Yes, but you will need to pm xjacobx your request. Be patient however as he is rarely on-line and very busy"
Q: "Can the Nav bar be enabled?"
A: "Yes, but you will need to pm xjacobx your request to make it work. Be patient however as he is rarely on-line and very busy"
Q: "I downloaded the rom but want to make sure it downloaded properly before I attempt to flash it. Everyone keeps telling me to check my md5 but I'm not sure how to do it"
A: "Here is a link to the Free md5 checker/generator that I use: http://www.winmd5.com/. Use that to compare the string of code with that of what I have listed for the rom download. If you can not use this app, you can also view the md5 on your phone via a root browser like root explorer by checking the properties of the zip.
Q: "I'm getting a force close when trying to load a live wallpaper. Is there a fix?"
A: "Not as of yet but I will try to figure it out and provide a flashable of files that I may have deleted in error"
Q: "I can't get music controls to show on the lockscreen. Is there a fix?"
A: "The only way to get the music controls to show on the lockscreen is if you chose to use an app called "Mixzing Free" or choose to use the sense lockscreen instead of my aosp one. The native player will not work on any aosp lock screens (for now). The flashable for the time being for the sense lock is in ZHP's first couple posts"
Q: "I am done with apex launcher and want my sense one back. How can I add it back to your rom?"
A: "There is a flashable and for the time being, it will be in ZHP's first couple posts"
Q: "Although the inverted apps are cool and all, they really make me dizzy. Is there a way I can go back to the stock versions?"
A: "Yes. For now, the flashable zip to restore all non inverted apps are in the first couple posts by ZHP Pilot"
Q: "I'm having issues with my PlayStore/FaceLock/(Insert Google app name here)... Is there any way to fix it?"
A: "Yes. Just flash these gapps: gapps-ICS-04/29/2012"
MD5: 7c524e1e078164f681e0aa6753180b2c
Q: "Which gapps are safe to flash on this rom?"
A: "I would suggest only flashing the latest ICS gapps for any of my roms as listed in the question above"
Q: "Is there any way to make the caller i.d. show up without having to unlock the phone?"
A: "Yes, but it is a workaround and you will not be able to use the lockscreen that comes with the rom. Download "Holo Locker" from the app market. That is the workaround everyone is using and gives you the Jelly Bean lockscreen"
Q: "Does "Google Now" work with this rom? If so, does the voice portion work also?"
A: "Yes google now works. No, the voice portion does not. However, if you can find it, there is a voice workaround called "Voice Search for Google Now!" that when you select the voice option, it will open your native voice to text and insert the spoken text for you. Simply clicking enter after that should get your results. It was once in the app market but was pulled. If you search hard enough, you will find it"
Q: "The Auto brightness toggle/manual settings always go back to the default before I toggled them when I lock my phone. Is there a fix?"
A: "No. This is a known issue on every rom that uses the Tweaks App. This toggle is only good for while the screen is rom. To make the effect last after screen lock however, you will need to go into System Settings/Display/Brightness and change the settings there"
Q: "How do I activate the Beats Mod or the SonyXLoud mod?"
A: "You don't. They are already active"
Q: "Every time I try to select the Personalize option under settings, I get a force close. Will there be a fix for this in the future?"
A: "Eventually yes. By completely removing it. Personalize is a sense function and because I have removed most of the sense elements from this rom, it force closes. So it needs to be removed"
Q: "What is this power Saver function under toggles? I turn it on but nothing happens... How do I make it effective now and what does it do? Also, I noticed you have an app that allows me to tweak the options for Power Saver but I still can't make it take effect."
A: "The power saver option only kicks in when the battery reaches a low percentage and can not be changed. I believe it is somewhere in the range of 30% and below when it goes active. The settings app allows you to tweak what it does once it activates. Power saver functions however will not activate whent he battery reaches critical if you have it turned off in toggle"
Q: "Do you have plans on adding an AOSP mail or mms app?"
A: "Not until certain issues are worked out. The AOSP mail breaks some exchange network functionality and the AOSP mms breaks media messaging like pictures/sound/video"
Q: "I read that you included the Google Sound Search (Google Ears) app in your rom but I can't find it?"
A: "It is a widget. long press your homescreen, select widget, and you will find it"
Q: "I flashed your rom and my phone gets really hot after a while. In fact, Ive noticed it on all the newer roms lately. What could be causing it and how can I attempt to fix it?"
A: "Make sure you have updated your radio to the latest available and then flash the 2nd to latest kernel. This combination has been known to have the best rom performance for all my roms and decreased heat"
Q: "Does this rom have the DIM LED mod?"
A: "Yes and it can be accessed in the tweaks app with most of the available tweaks on this rom"
Q: "When I turn the wifi on, it gets stuck in the "turning on" mode but never comes on. Why is it doing this and how can I fix it?"
A: "The kernel has been installed incorrectly or is not latest enough for the rom. You will need to flash the latest kernels in hboot. This will solve the problem"
Q: "Does this rom include an AD Blocker?"
A: "It does not as it interferes with some market apps that require it. You can however download several free ad blockers from the play store"
Q: "Do you have plans to add Aroma to your roms?"
A: "I may in the future yes"
Q: "I see you included a version of S-Voice that actually works with our Rezound. However, trying to set an alarm, launch calendar or music app, etc ends in a force close. What gives?"
A: "This is due to the fact that S-Voice is a SGS3 exclusive and the built in functions that have it search for the app you want to launch are looking for other exclusive samsung apps like S-Calendar or S-Music etc. The app would need to be hacked to change the default apps it searches for"
Q: "Does Bluetooth work with this rom?"
A: "Yes"
Q: "My gallery is not showing my pictures nor is my the Latin player showing my music. How do I fix this?"
A: "You just need to clear the cache on those apps and it will solve the problem"
Q: "Can fonts be changed in the tweaks app?"
A: "No, not with the tweaks app"
Q: "I use the Navigation app all the time to get me from point A to point B but it is not in this rom nor can I find it in the market. How can I get it back?"
A: "The navigation app (Blue Chevron for the icon) is actually part of the Google Maps app. Re-Download Google Maps and you will have your Navigation app back"
Q: "I noticed on most roms anything I download goes to the internal memory under the downloads folder. How can I change this to where downloads will go to my sd card's download folder?"
A: "There is a way to do it although I'm unsure of how at the moment. However, if you can change the default downloads folder in tapatalk or the xda app to "Downloads" and anything downloaded through those apps will go to that folder on your sd card"
Q: "I noticed your tweaks force GPU rendering instead of harware rendering. This conflicts with a few games I play and won't allow me to play them until I change it. If it's possible, where would I go to change that?"
A: "It is possible and is as easy as unchecking the option listed under system apps/developer options/Force GPU Rendering"
Q: "My clock doesn't stay hidden or centered when setting it to in the tweaks app. Is there a fix for this?"
A: "No. It is a problem with the tweaks app and there is no fix at the moment for it"
Q: "Everyone else is reporting amazing battery life but mine drains incredibly fast. What can I do to fix this?"
A: "Ensure that you are on the latest radio (1.22.10.0424r, 1.22.10.0424r) 2nd to latest kernel (3.0.14) and that you have no background apps that are using major resources constantly running. Also, make sure to tweak your screen properties/setting as the screen takes up a great deal of power"
Q: "Will there be any way to add switchable equilizers in your rom?"
A: "You can download them yourself. You will have to disable Beats however to use them"
Q: "Every now and then when I toggle bluetooth, it will lock up and not turn on. How do I fix it?"
A: "Reboot"

does this ROM suffer from choppiness of the homescreen like many others? This is probably the only thing keeping me from switching to any senseless ROM

v1.1
You must be on the latest firmware (4.03.605.2) to use this ROM. There are several ways to go about doing this but I suggest installing the RUU. If you have already upgraded, flash away my friend.
S-off Installation
Install the RUU, install a custom recovery, flash the ROM.
S-on Installation
Lock the bootloader, install the RUU, unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery, flash the ROM, flash the s-on kernel. (If you have been debating on going s-off, now is the time to do so. Do that before installing the 4.03 RUU)

Not really a bug but I forgot to change the about phone info to refect v1.1. Just disregard that. You can confirm your version by looking at the dialer. If the back ground it different than the screenshots, you have v1.1. Also can look at MMS convo bubbles. Sense 4 = v1.1.

Q: How do I install this?
A: You must be either s-off or s-on with unlocked bootloader, have a custom recovery, and be on the global firmware to install and use this rom. If you don't know what this means, take advantage of the handy search feature that xda has provided. There are numerous useful threads out there for the Rezound. Basic installation instructions are provided at the top of the OP for s-off and s-on.
Q: Can I dirty flash this rom?
A: If you are coming from another rom then a full wipe is recommended. If you chose to dirty flash and have problems, please don't post your issue. Do a full wipe and reflash the rom. If you continue to have an issue, you can proceed to ask for advice.
Q: Why did you make this rom when we already have several others?
A: My goal with this project was to make a rom set up the way I like it with the mods and tweaks I find the most useful. I believe the masses will agree with my decisions. In conjunction, my intent was to focus on battery life as it pertains to my phone. I am not making any claims that this rom provides better battery life than anything else available. Every phone reacts different to every rom so you will need to test and find what works best for you.
Q: Why did you remove X, Y and Z?
A: X, Y and Z were removed because they are features only used by a few people and there is no need to include it for everyone else. In accommodation for the few people that use X, Y and Z, I have posted Add-ons that will add back features removed on a case by case basis. These can be found in post 4. In addition, you can check the Mods section in post 4 for additional revert files and mods. If a feature was removed that you use and it is not available in post 4, post your request and I will provide a flashable file for you.
Q: Can you explain what was changed with the auto brightness settings?
A: HTC has provided very moderate default auto brightness values. While this is good in high light situations, it is not needed in low light situations and increases the battery consumption. The big beautiful screen on the Rezound is very nice to look at, but it sacrifices battery life to accommodate it. I have reduced the brightness level of the screen over most of the range of ambient light values. The percent change varies for each level but it ranges from a reduction of 4.5% all the way to 66.7%. I'm still searching for those 'magically' values but what I have got so far seems to work very well for the typical lighting conditions the phone will see on a daily bases.
Q: Why aren't my buttons lighting up, did you break my phone?
A: I have turned the capactive button backlights off when using auto brightness unless the lowest state is being used. Since you can see buttons without the lights on there is no need for it and its just wasting battery. However, I have set it up to turn on when the phone is at it's lowest brightness state. This way they can be seen in the dark. The brightness of the backlights have also been reduced when they are on. If you want them off all the time, there are apps in the Play Store that can do this for you. One such app is rootdim.
Q: Your feature list says 'Better HTC Percent Battery.' What does this mean?
A: Every rom that I have used for the Rezound that includes the stock looking percent battery all use the same old icons from older phones. These icons are smaller as they were for hdpi devices. Also the text is small and hard to read. The old icons are either placed in the hdpi folder and the phone resizes them to fit xhdpi or they are enlarged before hand. Either way, this results in a somewhat blurry image. So what I have done is created all new icons that use true xhdpi battery images. I have increased the height of the battery slightly and used a larger font size so the percent is easier to see. In addition, I used the Roboto font since it's what comes with the rom. If you are a themer, modder, dev and want to use my new battery for you work, please don't kang. Ask and you shall receive and give credit where credit is due.
Q: How can I get wifi tethering to work?
A: I have removed the VZW hotspot feature and included WiFi Tether for Root Users. Open the app and hit menu > settings. Change the Device-Profile to HTC Rezound (LTE/CDMA/GSM). Change the Setup-Method to Netd (master). Scroll down and find Routing fix and enable it (box checked). You can also setup WiFi-Encryption if you prefer. If you happen to pay for Mobile Hotspot through Verizon, there is an add-on that will give that back to you. It will also add the hot spot quick setting.
How do I get that clock widget in your screenshots?
A: What you see is my Sense 4 Clock widget. Go to the widgets list and look for Sense 4 Clock. The version included in the rom is v4.2 for Sense 3.x launchers. It is not a "Sense" widget so it does not use the weather info obtained by the HTC weather app. It uses Google for the source. More info about the widget as well as themes can be found in my thread here.
Q: I don't see the beats notification when I use my Play Store app, how do I know it's on?
A: The Beats notification is an apk that is triggered/enabled for the native HTC music player only. Therefore, you will only see the notification when use that player; however that doesn't mean its not working. There just isn't a persistent notification telling you its on.
Does <insert name>'s mod work with this rom?
A: This depends on the mod. Keep in mind this is an odex rom and damn near all mods posted are deodex. However, this does not necessarily mean it won't work as you can use deodex mods on odex roms if you do an extra step. If the mod is made for an older update (pre-global) or changes certain files like framework-res.apk, com.htc.resource.apk or SystemUI.apk it will break the features of the rom and/or cause boot loops. Please post your questions and a link to it if you want to use a mod by someone.
Q: Why wasn't the Facebook app updated?
A: Let's face it. The Facebook app sucks and seems to get worse with every update. There are some pretty fun reviews in the Play Store if you want a good laugh. Unfortunately you have to have it for Facebook for Sense to work. I have found adding the latest version in the rom, causes an issue where Facebook fails to authorize after each reboot. This causes your contacts not to sync until you sign in again. If I leave the older version in, then update the app with the latest build after the fact, this issue is gone.
Q: Why is the App Associations still in settings?
A: HTC is continually fine tuning, if you will, the app associations due to crApple's lawsuit. The global update received a more recent version, From what I can tell based on the changes made to Settings, the newer version has items related to YouTube in it although if you look in the Settings on the phone you won't see it mentioned. Also, included with the other changes is how the Settings entry is handled. Prior, the build.prop edit would remove it from Settings and fix the links. The edit still fixes the links, but it no longer removes it from Settings. I spent a good 4 hours trying to track down an edit that would remove it from Settings but my attempts all ended in force closes.

This is the flashable kernel for S-on users. It is a modified version of the stock kernel that comes with the global RUU. The modifications allow for a couple of the rom's features. Flash this file in RECOVERY. Do not rename it to PH.. and try to install via bootloader. The PH file will be automatically placed on your sdcard and your phone will reboot to hboot for you. Press the power button to enter bootloader and start the update. Remove the file from your sdcard after.

nice work dude.
This ROM looks sick can't wait to download it and give it a try. Great work
Enjoy guys. This has been about 2-3 weeks in the making. Started with making a themed version of the ota then the global update hit and had to start all over. With that said, you can expect a themed version in the near future. If you have previously owned a thunderbolt you might have seen the theme but it was the stock look of a rom port. I made the theme for personal use on every rom I ran on the thunderbolt but I never released it.
Wellll you've convinced me to soff the new rezound and go global. It looks as though you've been extremely thorough with this, hopefully I'll be running this tomorrow.

Left it out on purpose. There are numerous ad blocking apps on the market. Adding host files to the rom negatively impacts some people and its easier for those that want them to get an app than to remove them. But I understand where you are coming from.

Fair enough. Don't worry about the download speed it flies.
Looks like what I've been waiting for in a rom. Is the dialer themed while in a call as well or just when you dial? Also, is there a mod to make the app drawer text normal size for us older crack flashers? If not, that's cool. This is really a highly polished rom that you should be proud of. Thanks

Yes. Dialer is themed while in a call too. Anyone that has used any of my themes know I don't half ass anything. Lol. As for the app drawer mod, are you looking for page scroll or free scroll?
Download link is in the thread, do not use the "Download" section in XDA DEVDB, my network has some problems with it for now.
After nearly one year's silence, SwipeBack is now back alive, known as SwipeBack2.
SwipeBack2 is the continue of SwipeBack. It has still the basic feature, swipe-to-return gesture, inspired by the library SwipeBackLayout written by @ikew0ng(a.k.a. IssacWong, 碎星iKe, 碎iKe). It provides a smooth, nature-like and highly customizable swipe-to-return gesture. This module is initially a wrapper of SwipeBackLayout in Xposed, and was welcomed widely by Xposed users. Gradually it has gained much new features that is more than SwipeBackLayout.
If you have installed the old SwipeBack, please uninstall it first, and then you can install SwipeBack2
Features:
* Swipe-to-return gesture
* Per-activity settings which means you are able to customize settings on <strong>each page of each app</strong>
* Experimental hacks for Lollipop (may not work, use with caution, do not turn it on globally)
* More experimental features are coming in future releases.
Note that SwipeBack2 is now only a rewrite and a port to Lollipop (but it still works on ICS/JB/KK). It has many work to-do, as:
* Pure-gesture mode (disable scrolling effects, enables compatibility with apps that consist of Fragments but not Activities, and can work with Browsers)
* Fully-costomizable trigger area (at <strong>any</strong> position on the edge, to fix compatibility with apps that has a gesture like drawers already)
* Automatic bug report and crash log submitter
* More (<strong>advices are always welcome)
SwipeBack2 is free software released under the terms of GNU GPLv3. Source code available at https://github.com/PaperAirplane-Dev-Team/SwipeBack
Changelog
1.0.2:
- Fix icons
- Add ability to show a settings shortcut to the current app activity in notif bar
This is a minor release. We will go to fix several bugs in the next few weeks
1.0.1:
- Fix crashes in main app UI
- Fixes for apps with wallpaper
Downloads
From Xposed Store: http://repo.xposed.info/module/info.papdt.swipeback
From Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.papdt.swipeback
FAQs:
Q: Why renamed to SwipeBack2?
A: Because SwipeBack2 is completely rewritten, and is refactored to have a better stability and flexibility. And another reason is, that SwipeBack (us.shandian.swipeback) is blacklisted by Alipay because of the unsecure SwipeBack, so I just renamed it to SwipeBack2 (info.papdt.swipeback), hoping that it will not be blacklisted any more.
Q: Would you add feature X / fix bug X?
A: Feel free to send emails or open issues on GitHub page. I may not have time to reply to you all, but I will take a look at bug reports and feature requests and have the resonable ones implemented in new releases.
Q: SwipeBack is great! Do you accept donations?
A: Well, not now.

Not for me, works as it should. Everything fine. Just have to experiment a bit with the Lollipop Feature, few Apps don't like it as stated in the App.
Ty!
apps loaded well but cannot change settings any of the app "unfortunaly swipeback 2 has stopped" please fix it

Cannot get it working on a Nexus 5 with CM12, I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong but I don't think so. Just installed, enabled it on Xposed and restarted. It's not CAF, so it may be fault of the rom. What android and rom are you using?
EDIT:
Just disabled every other module and it's working now. I will try to find which one is causing the problem and report it because it may be useful to someone.
Works fine expect one bug - on Lollipop when I go to the task manager after swipe back an app it shows the launcher screen as the thumbnails for the swiped back app.
Works great on LG G2 XenonHD 5.0.2:good:

good to see new version thanks for continuing this module
Sent from LG Optimus G
Im glad someone revived this amazing module ... please keep it updated ... i will keep giving feedback and any bugs if i find on this thread
Edit 1 Bugs-
1. While swiping back on Whatsapp it goes back perfectly from the Chat screen to the Chat list. But while Swiping back on other apps like Gallery or Instagram. It doesnt swipe back. It goes to Home Screen.
2.After Swiping back the Recent app page shows wrong thumbnails .. it shows the Home screen as thumbs instead of App last state. (Screenshot Attached)
3.Also after restart i got a com.location.google has stopped ... i may have said the term wrong .. but it was something regarding Location.
4. SB2 force closes if Global settings option is pressed.
Notes:
I have unistalled old Swipeback and Freshly Installed this.
I love this app and will continue to send feedback to make it best.
