HTC Sense Home for M8 7.1.1 ROMs. For those who may love BLINKFEED and Sense home launcher & apps. Here I’m sharing my views on 7.1.1 Nougat ROM…. Sense Home Hybrid Maybe some will like them as I do.

Preknowledge & Requirements:

These are the main things you have to remember

1.  M8 running a 7.1.1 ROMs such as crDroid, Cypher OS, Resurrection Remix, Lineage OS, Slim7 etc.

2.  These will only run on HTC M8 and some HTC devices but it will never work on non-HTC devices.

Bugs-

1.  There will be no 4×2 Sense Home widget.

2.  When you click on 4×1 weather clock widget on Home Screen, it opens browser, 4×1 weather clock on blinkfeed, 4×2 weather clock widget and the rest open weather forecast app as usual.

3.  There is one more bug that there is darker bar on the navigation bar as the framework for each need some edit.
