HTC Tattoo 1.6 Sense UI?

Hello guys, new owner of a Tattoo looking for some info:
I have been playing around with Android 2.1 ROMs specially Abyzou and Kiljacken and I have one question:
Can I install the HTC Sense UI that originally came with my 1.6 Tattoo on Android 2.1? Because that's all I really needed to have my phone as I wish. The 2.1 Sense UI doesn't have information about the cities here in Portugal as the one that came with the phone had.
Also, one other thing,
I have done a NAND+Ext backup using Maverick's recovery, but I can't restore it because the phone tells me to type a command in adb in my computer that doesn't do anything... Any clues?
Thanks in advance,
K.

In reply to your Sense UI from 1.6 on 2.1 - the short answer is no, as Android 1.6 uses a totally different framework than 2.1 (1.6 processes commands differently than 2.1).

Thanks Coburn64 I've gone back to the stock 1.6 ROM for now.

ROM 2.1 with Sense UI?
why don't you try Killjacken ROM.. it's based on android 2.1 but with sense UI applied.. i'ts a little bit slow in first install, but try to install autokiller, and restart, you will find that it's a good ROM to try...

Would autokiller make it usable? Because the ROM is very slow atm.

Sense rom to Nexus?

Hi,
I'd like to try some ROM with HTC Sense, but don't know which one is the best when it comes to battery life and useability?

I would say use one that is on 2.2 to start with.
[ROM][FRF91] eViL's Q&D HTC Sense v.1.00 - base 2.09 Desire 720p video
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730290
OR
[ROM] [v1.2] KiNgxKxNexus FroyoDesire2Nexus {8/7/10}
http://kingxklick.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14
Both are 2.2 Sense UI ROMs.
Both are just as usable.

Is there anyone who has made a rom to just add the sense UI materials to the already built rom, sorta like with themes where you don't have to flash a whole brand new rom.
(keeping in mind that the phone is already rooted)

[Android] New Froyo ROM

- Based on Dzo's latest Fresh Froyo system-froyo-eu-unodex-03-12-10_04
- Replaced stock launcher2 with ADWLauncher 1.3.3
- Removed unneeded apps in a similar way to Fat Free Froyo RLS5 (thanks to thoughtlesskyle for his great work)
- Added % to the battery indicator (for now at 0%, 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%)
- Added Astro to the SYS partition (As I personally consider it a core tool)
- Tested with kernel 2.6.25 (download here)
Notes:
- If somebody gets it working with a 2.6.32 kernel, please post the kernel
- If you want to add some of the stuff it was removed, here is the androidupdate.tar
DOWNLOAD FROYO ROM
Known issues:
In Kaiser no wifi
Here are the kernel modules (install as update)

Interesting would be good to put some screenshot but insurance not be very different with respect to Fresh Froyo of anyway thanks for the work done in this ROM

thats actually not the newest fresh froyo nj2rt (sorry if i miss spelled)
posted one on the last few pages of that thread called freshened froyo thats what RLS18 is built from, that dzo rls is really old thats the same one RLS16 of super and not so super are based off of, other than that great work

Thanks for the info, next time I know...
If I had known in advance I would have taken the freshened froyo as a base instead...
Anyways I´ve got another froyo prepared based on your fatfreeRLS5 or may be I should just release it as a patch? (it replaces the circular battery indicator with the % one from not so super froyo RLS17)

[ROM][21/03]InsertCoin v0.2 A2SD

Hi, i'm new here on wildfire dev, but i'm pretty active on desire "scene"

My wife has a Buzz and asked to make her a ROM, so i gave it go. Here is the 1st version:
- based on RUU_Buzz_Froyrange_ES_2.34.75.1_Radio_13.55.55. 24H_3.35.20.10
- Rooted
- Deodexed
- A2SD (you will need an ext partition after the FAT one)
- latest busybox (1.18.3)
- All apks are optimized and zipaligned
- Default kernel for now - but [KERNEL][OC/UV][BFQ][AUFS][FTW][GPL] HCDR.Kernel v4.1 should work, I'll try to convince snq- (the one who made the desire kernel to make one for wildfire)
- Amend script syntax to work with all recoveries (minus 3xxxx one)
- hosts moved to /data/local for adfree
- bootanimation moved to /data/local
- all google apps updated to their latest version
- what i forgot
Changelog:
21 march - Removed beta tagged, after 10 days on missus phone, the rom didn't crashed once - rom is still the one from 11 march. I will not update the rom just to create the feeling that i'm working hard on it, i dont have what to update, no new kernel or base or hacks mods since 11 march. maybe only some new versions of market apps but those can be updated from market.
0.2
- Updated market to latest version
- Added 4n1 reboot menu
- Updated busybox to 1.19
- All market apps (gmail, maps, facebook, etc.) are install as user apps so you can remove update edit change.
- flash WITHOUT wipe. - is a 2.3 mB update flash over v0.1
0.1
- initial release
I cook my roms, trying to keep them as stock as possbile, with stability and speed in mind.
This is the 1st version which is a beta. I'm more familiar with porting stuff so i'll give it a go to wildfire s rom when i can and i'm more comfortable with wildfire

Nice to see other Senior Devs make a ROM for the Wildfire, normally is the other way round.
Good Luck on the ROM. It looks very promising for an initial release.

Welcome
Nice to hear about new rom. I'm very intrested about your work because at the moment is impossible to find a good rom.

hmm....very nice...can you put some printscreens ?
And can you give linpack test info ?
I need to try you rom, but this 2 infos I would like to know. If it's not a problem.
Tnx

probably my rom doesn't have as many features as older roms here, but i did this rom because after sometime, all other roms became laggish on the buzz. So for now better speed was my goal, and seems i accomplished it. try it and let me know

the looks is stock, but is deodexed so you can customize it with UOT.
i cant give you linkpack score, im at work and the phone is not mine so i dont have it with me. but as getting to know each other i dont care about benchmakers scores as long as roms feels smooth. and it does
from what i saw ppl here are obsessed with linkpack on desire they are with quadrant.

We can't use Quadrant in it's free version because we don't have a GPU, as simple as that

yes i know, i was merely trying to make a point, that ppl are obsessed by benchmarks, it is not a pc to run 3dmark on it and buzz surely is pretty limited as performance, so as long as a rom runs smooth and apks along with it i really don't understand why some scores are important to you, adding the fact that one is a score and most of the time is not reflected by reality.
Power of example for quadrant since i had to deal with obsession on desire thread.
free of quadrant version 1600 points on a2sd rom
paid of quadrant version 1800 points on a2sd rom
on data2sd 2500 points (due to fake i/o by emultation sdcard as nand)
on data2ext 3050 points (again same reason)
all this on the same rom (mine) same kernel only with the scripts changed.. funny thing .. all 3 version act the same in terms of speed in real life

The only value that would be usefull is the average FPS in common usage (Maybe one day google will include it?)

It`s nice to see devs coming to this platform!
Bine ai venit!

Hi Mate,

Very professional Thread View...Welcome to the Wildfire Section, more and more devs are filling the wildfire section lately and that's a good thing!!!
Enjoy your stay, just downloaded beta version, already nandroided my CM7 RC2, and going to flash right now!
Will report feedback soon - Thanks for ur effort and time to share ur work with us!

Hooray for a ROM that includes that nice little boot jingle. I don't understand why all the other ROMs remove it. Still booting. Must await full verdict.

downloading it right now. I'll post feedback soon. Thanks a lot!

Tested it .. Worked fine .. No freezing .... Stable so far. IMO Need few work like a Reboot option .. Seems like the Market is not the updated version. The boot screen like stock one .. I like that one
Well done Mate .. Expecting lot of updates

[RUU][DEVS ONLY][For Porting] HTC Pico [Sense 3.5][Android 2.3.5][Sense Zero]

From the Hero section:
flashinglights said:
Found this while searching around google. It's a leaked RUU for the HTC Pico "explorer" which is a light version of Sense 3.5 on android 2.3.5 or most commonly known as "sense zero". I thought I would post it up so that you'll can start porting over to the hero.
The Pico specs are rather similar to our phone so it shouldn't be to difficult for someone to port it over, it's also mdpi so no resizing will be necessary.
If you are already considering taking on this project then more than likely you already know how to setup a flashable rom from a ruu but in case you need some refreshing the following will help:
Instructions:
- dsixda kitchen will need to be installed prior to starting.
1. Run RUU and leave open
2. Type %TEMP% in your computers start menu search bar.
3. Search through the folders in there with the long names with numbers and letters, you'll find a zip file named "rom.zip" in there.
4. Place the rom.zip in the original_update folder located in the "kitchen" directory
5. From there follow the steps on the kitchen menu to setup the rom.
6. Then proceed to porting to the hero. :]
- Download Pico RUU

EDIT: Sorry, i read this on the XDA front page where they wrote that Pico has QVGA resolution which apparently it has not. It´s HVGA.
...The interesting thing about the Pico is the fact that it is loaded with Sense 3.5, which happens to be called Sense Zero for this particular device. Due to having similar specs such as QVGA resolution and ARMv6 processor....

Wow, fingers crossed. There haven't been any bigger breakthroughs ever since KalimochoAz figured out the cam drivers for 2.3...

I dont think this would be possible.. First of i dont think the tattoo is capable of running it smoothly enough.. And second the Hero's resolution is bigger than the one on the tattoo, so it would need to be resized..
And last .. Im afraid theres no devs with enough skill back with a tattoo

I'm interested on working on this but I have never worked on a rom before. I just have experience in java/c++ and some android app programming. Can anybody point me to the right direction? I think i can devote much time to this project.

i hope if this can be run on tattoo )))

From what i can remember on my time with rom cooking you will need a so called "Rom kitchen" .. Try searching for it here.. Maybe you could ask someone who has more experience, and get them to point you to the right direction ?

I had a look at the Wildfire section and saw a similar project. They had managed to get it booting, but at the moment it was unusable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285694
In the meantime, to get more comfortable with the tools and development I've decided to resume the development of the Sense 2.2 Rom port from the wildfire.

Hey good thinking, then you could use following ROMs as base (not exclusive):
Build Number : 2.37.415.1
Android Freedom Wildfire 2.2.1 Arabic sense
STEAM V1.0 by o TRiPPiNz (Also supports Arabic for Arabic users)
Based on official: 2.34.75.1
WildPuzzleROM_2.2.1 v0.8
as you know TatFroyoSense is based on build 2.22.405.1
2.22.405.1 r1 - MoDaCo Custom ROM (Froyo 2.2.1)
Later version had the contacts apk fixed and the live wallpaper support and slightly faster.
I could build a dirty ROM from DanneJo's Wildpuzzle ROM, but it has problem with wifi and accelerometer.
a dirty hack had activated wifi.
I am not a dev and had very poor programming experience.
If you can do this project, that is best for us to get a decent product.

Thank you for the links.
I've also seen RemPuzzleRom which is a continuation of WildPuzzleRom and contained some interesting hacks, especially one on keeping the launcher in memory (which TatFroyoSense lacked).
I'll try porting STEAM tomorrow and see how everything works. Once I get some concrete results I'll start a new thread as this is moving away from the original topic.
