I saw the HTC One few days ago and thought: what a beautiful UI! So I started working on a Sense 5 ROM. Here it is!

FEATURES
○ Updates OTA (over-the-air)
○ FlashLitePlugin (you maybe know this from the Stock ROM, dunno if it works)
○ CacheCleaner NG (wipe cache every day to avoid FCs)
○ Google-Apps included
○ Sense Theme is already applied, you have to apply the Sense 5 theme in Apex Settings
○ ClearAudio+
○ Android 4.2.2 :p
○ Sense 5 toneset (ringtones, notification sounds, etc)
○ Sense 5 quicksettings
○ Sense 5 theme of course :p
○ Better WiFi signal
○ Various tweaks
○ Smooth + good battery life
○ and more! :p


DOWNLOADS


INSTALLATION
○ Boot into Recovery
○ flash Superwipe.zip (formats NAND, so you haven't to wipe manually)
○ flash ROM
○ reboot, let the ROM boot and flash CronMod (only if you have an ext-Partition that you wanna mount)


GUIDE -SENSE 5 QUICK SETTINGS EASY ACCESS
OKAY so I know some people would like Quick settings integrated into the statusbar but this is even better. After placing your sense 5 clock widget open the Fancy Widget app. After opening navigate to Advanced Settings and then press 'Date tap action'. So far this sounds like a bunch of bullcrap but just keep reading. After pressing 'Date tap action' a list will open up with three options. Select the option that says 'Launch date app'. After selecting that a list of your apps will appear. Scroll down to the one that says Quick Settings and tap it. Then press OK. You can now go back to your homescreen and whenever you tap the date on the clock it opens your helpful quicksettings. No need for messy icons or text on the homescreen. No need to open app drawer every time!!! Simple, Sweet and Surreal!!!

GUIDE -SENSE 5 WEATHER ANIMATIONS
To enable Sense 5 weather animations after unlocking screen open the Fancy Widget app. Navigate to weather settings. First select celsius. Finally tick the options that enable sense 5 weather animations. Go to home. Lock the screen. Unlock the screen. Observe the beautiful weather animations by HTC.

FAQ
Cam/Camcorder doesn't work properly
Answer: Install this!

MIUI Cam doesn't work too..?
A.: Deactivate panorma mode in settings.

Are GAPPS included?
A.: Yes! (sense 5 ROM only)

Softkey backlights don't work...
A.: go to settings > display > automatic backlight > edit other levels and set the first two numbers to 255 as shown in the screenshot!


Where's Play Store?
A.: Flash this.

Isn't that just a themed CM10 ROM?
A.: Read the list of features and you'll see that it's more than just a themed ROM!

When will come the next update?
A.: No ETAS! I try to update my ROM every day, and if I don't do once, just be patient and wait, don't spam my thread!

Your ROM lags as hell!
A.: Yes, that's normal at the beginning. The Phone syncs all of your stuff (contacts, apps, settings etc). If the problem's still there after 1-2 days, you can contact me.

OTA updates? WTF?
A.: Yes, OTA updates. You'll receive updates "over-the-air" with the GooIM app!

How's battery life?
A.: Quite good.

Battery test.
1. 10 PM, watching youtube, installing some apps
2. idling whole night
3. small call
4. afternoon idling

For now 16 hours and 30 minutes without charging.
It has great battery saving when goes sleep, don't you think?

When using it for a longer time back panel of wfs gets warmer ^^

EDIT: and auto brightness of backlight works great
EDIT2: Just now (24 hours after last charging) had to start charging (c.a. 2% of energy left). Had fun with some wifi (Android Firewall won't work), tried PSX emulator fpse (Need for Speed Porsche still 40fps, so it's slowmotion) and sent 20 sms'es. Battery drain is the same as in stock I assume.
USER FEEDBACK

A very coool thread :D

My test

•Photo WORKING it working perfectly.
•Video WORKING . Working really good.
•Panorama WORKING
•HQ video playback WORKING Working perfectly. Nothing else to say
•Low brightness WORKING
is Fixed
•DATA WORKING Work 100% perfect
Whoa dude, this is the most stable rom I've ever tried. Being strict, the only "bug" I've found is the panorama mode. It takes photographs but it merges them with screenshots. Anyway, it's a step further than other roms where panorama doesn't even take shots xD

Congratulations for this awesome rom :good:

This rom is realy smooth and fast [...]
Take the time you need to fix :D

And continues the good job :D

Sorry about my english :p

:D
Fantastic rom!

:highfive:
Thanks for your help and your great rom Oliver :) [...]
M using this rom from da last 24 hours..and i must say its one of the awesomest ones i've tried. Comparing its battery life and performance...its far more better than others! Cheers djoliver! Keep up the good work...:) :good:

this is really nice ROM, i like it but for me it's faild in ROOT check for apps like rom toolbox, installed supersu and binary update failed, what to do ?

cheers ! ;)

/edit i just keep failing in root access, i know everything is fine by my side cos there is no rom here which i didn't try or used for a while...

also, in rom toolbox i just saw that system storage have JUST incredible low 36 KB (lol) free, i hope that's just some strange error ? :)

No, Now My phone only is bootloader
Yes, you've just got one of those WildFire S that have less space than others, like mine... Wait for someone to slim the ROM (for example putting gapps in cache).

Yes. The ROM isn't too big BUT i accidentally removed the line in updater-script that flashes boot.img, so your phone has no boot. That's why it won't boot.

Mainly for status 7

Status 7 is caused by failed symlinks. I've already fixed these issues, but I uploaded the wrong Build. The right one is on my phone's sdcard.
Sorry dudes! :(

FYI, my work is open source, so anybody can slim the ROM or whatever. ;)


Could you just post the clock and weather widget? I would use it in my jelly king and launcher 8 ;]
Go here! :)

ROM is uploading... will be available in ROM Manager shortly.
