Possible to port old sense ring lockscreen? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The lockscreen is okay on sense 5 but personally I liked the look of the old one a lot better. Would it be possible to port it? If so someone should do it. I don't know how or I would.

It probably relies on some sort of framework so I doubt it's possible. At least that's what I here every time someone requests something from another version of sense to be ported.

I don't want to change launchers

That's the right guys, but again - it seems dead. The last posts in that forum are dated for the end of May, before the thread on this site was declared abandoned. Many of us have been watching this for a long time, and it really doesn't seem like it's going to happen.
Sad

What about the launcher? It's just a launcher right? Like any launcher should just work. I can understand the rest of the parts being a problem but a launcher is just a launcher right? If not than maybe someone can clarify why

If I recall correctly, the launcher is baked into Sense, and Sense 4 uses a different framework than previous versions of Sense (You need the proper framework to have it work).
IMO, Sense 3.6 is ok. Only some "little" things diferent between 3.6 and 4.0 Like
-Transparent Notification Bar.
-Background color in Settings.
-Flip-style "windows feel" task manager
In this box, we easily find the transparent mod, and flip-style task manager.

Thanks for clarifying that. My flyer is similar with its sense 1.1 for tablets. Several people been trying to sense strip it but some things can't be changed such as the lock screen and menu colors due to framework differences

Widgets on lockscreen?

Am I missing something here or does the 4.2.2 really not have widgets on the lockscreen?

Thanks to HTC, no. We have to wait for someone to make it so we can flash the stock 4.2.2 lockscreen. People in the ARHD thread got it to work by renaming or removing the HTC lockscreen apk but supposedly some could add widgets and some couldn't. That thread moves way to fast so I can't find any of the info for that now so have no idea how to get it to work or if it really does work.

I have renamed the lockscreen and now I have stock. But I can't add widgets to it. I saw some people on the arhd thread who can ....

It's ridiculous that HTC didn't add this option.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
for some reason if you dirty flash from a 4.1.2 ROM to a 4.2.2 one you get the ability to add lockscreen widgets to the stock lock screen (which you get by deleting HtcLockscreen.apk)
I suspect HTC removed whatever bits of system ui from 4.2.2 that supported them, and dirty flashing is the only way (so far) to get those bits.
Do they work on stock lockscreen?

And I thought Samsung's implementation of Lockscreen widgets was dumb... at least they can do it. Bad HTC, that's a very bad HTC. I'm gonna get a rolled up newspaper.

No that's what I was talking about
Hopefully someone will figure out how to add them in. So dumb that HTC would do that.

Is there anyone working on this ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Mine works. I just flashed the 4.2.2 rom TWICE, then deleted HTCLockscreen.apk (or add a .bak to the end of it) and it worked. I went back to 4.1 right not so I don't have a screenshot, but it did work for me.
HTCs lockscreen system is bad enough already. You can't even have a different wallpaper than your home screen unless you are willing to lose out on the function of the other lockscreens. God forbid us being able to have a different wallpaper AND having notifications on our lockscreen. I really hope someone works on this. Because from what I can tell torxx and mike couldn't really care less widgets on the lockscreen. Torxx just told me to use something like widgetlocker but that thing causes lag sometimes and mike says he hates lockscreen widgets period.

(REQ) Sense launcher in Aosp rom

As a long time lover of Aosp (since froyo on my old cappy) I really miss it, the problem is I've fallen in love with sense 5. That's all I really care about in sense roms though. So I was wandering if it's possible to port the sense launcher to a gpe rom. Is it possible?
Sent from my HTC One
i think that would require loads of work but im not 100 % on that
Yeah its probably possible with tons of work, but I doubt anyone would take a lot of interest in porting it since honestly it's nothing special of a launcher and it's rather stale in features. Anyways, why do you want the sense 5 launcher over something like nova launcher or action launcher pro?

Blinkfeed. It's perfect for when you're sitting around with nothing to do. I've become quite attached to it.

I guess that's understandable. I settled for Feely though since it's amazingly designed and I can customize it by websites I want easily. Still waiting for new widgets from them though.

Port Blinkfeed from sense launcher

Anyone know if theres a way to port blinkfeed to GE rom or cyanogenmod?
No not at the moment, if ever. You might blow me off but I use a full size flipboard widget which is just as good as blinkfeed.
Sent from my One using Tapatalk 2
I heard about this flip board I think I tried it out once and it wasn't the same.I'm surprised that nobody has created a similar app or even try to port or mimic BlinkFeed.

[Q] Is it Possible to get the ring lock from the older sense version of 4.1+

My HTC one is the first of the htc phones i have used to far ( and its not the last for sure ) ... When i got this phone it was on sense 5 version with 4.2.2 android. I have flashed almost all roms and quite happy with it. Until recently i came across a downgraded rom [ROM]HTC new one First sense4+ ROM with Android 4.1.1 by kuaidao ... Thanks for him i got the chance to feel the sense 4 version.... I must say it is an amazing feel of it... I love every single bit of it...It has skins of its own..... more lock screen options and more skins for lock screen... and more than anything... the screen lock is extremely smooth and very helpful,... and trust me its very very very very very smooth.... i just fell in love with... I just don't know why the htc have removed that lock screen and replaces with a naked and more simple lock screen in the sense 5 ..... ... for the first time i was even more happier to have downgraded my sense version from 5 to 4 and android 4.2.3 to 4.1.1 .... everything works perfectly... except few small issues like Chinese language and missing the beats audio...
Now for my request... Is it even possible to take the entire ring lock screen and even the skins and other options and get it on our sense 5 ???? I am sorry if i am sounding noobish... but i am really a noob on these issues...

You could use WidgetLocker or Magic Locker for now.

Delete HTCLockScreen.apk from system apps. You'll have an AOSP lock screen like this.
Backup first though, on some custom roms it causes bootloops.

Bro you got me wrong. I am looking for the ring lockscreen which was there in sense 4.1+ version. Not this one bro. Neverthless thanks for reply.

Yah, I realized that, I have no idea about the old sense ring lock so I figured I'd give you an alternative. Since the new lock screen is terrible, IMO. But I hope you get it figured out. Good luck. Haha
