All (or most) of them. Be patient.

Haven't you seen that Cyanogenmod 6 is officially coming to the Hero? I can't post any links, but they are on the first page in this forum...

Lox is actively developing CyanogenMod 6 for the Hero. His pre-alpha test0 ROM is already very fast and stable, and maxisma's nightly builds or CM6 are also semi-usable, with mixed results depending on the build.

screw froyo without sense!installed 2.2 w/sense on mates desire today....already watching nexus ones on ebay lol

ewe... froyo makes sense redundant imho. with a nice clock widget and launcherpro you're missing nothing without sense and gaining multiple exchange accounts, better contact integration, better screen real estate, rotating home screens (if you want, I find them a nuisance on android), better calendar integration, better everything really than sense ever had. OH and far better live wallpaper performance (I can actually run live wallpaper on my hero running stock clock speed with a froyo nightly build, the google apps addon and the live wallpaper addon... and performance is perfect with it and launcherpro!)

Official update to 2.2 for N1:
h t tp s://android.clients.google.com/packages/passion/signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip
maybe this can be used for HERO GSM
I really hope it lives up to the hype. 450% speed increases?! Is it really that much faster?

isnt froyo faster because of JIT?? correct me if im wrong but if this is the case then Sense UI will be near impossible
Why sense ui would note be possible with jit? Htc have planned update to froyo for many devices... and sense is just another java package... no?

Well the first set of roms will just be a clean build of 2.2 any ways no need for sence it just tends to make the roms slower and bigger in size

[Q] Newbie question about Rooting & Roms?

Since it has been made official by Verizon not to update the Eris to Froyo I am now looking into rooting and using a custom Rom for my daughters Eris. What I need to know is are there any Roms out there that would still give you access to the HTC Sense widgets or one that allows you to still take advantage of HTC Sense the way it is currently on the phone? What can I say, she really loves there widgets and stuff!
None of the froyo roms incorporate HTC Sense. A great rom to look at is XTR SENSE. it's a 2.1 rom and is very fast and has all the glory of the HTC synch and Widgets.

Another option would be to use KaosFroyo and download beautiful widets. That can give you sense like widets.

+1, with the addition of launcher pro plus to get even more of the look. It has similar people, message widgets plus some more and you can even alter the dock to look like sense.
There is one or two devs that are working on a froyo sense rom but progress is slow going because of how much sense is integrated with the rest of the framework. If you want froyo I would use kaosfroyo or if you still want 2.1 the Ares rom works great. I would also use beautiful widgets with any of the froyo ROMs. Make sure you go through the threads and understand what you are getting into with rooting and using custom ROMs.

+1 for xtrSENSE
I chose v4.5 as my first custom rom and so far it's awesome. No problems getting it up and running, setting a stable overclock, and enjoying HTC Sense features.

[REQ] HTC Sense

Ive seen it done on other android devices, So why not on a Atrix?
On which other devices did you saw the Sense?
The sense is a close code project of HTC, and can not realy be installed successfuly on non-HTC devices.
You can use themed launchers that has the looks and sometimes the widgets of the sense, as showed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053409&highlight=sense
but actually install Sense on devices that dont come with sense in the first place is not really possible (to be more accurate, it is even quite complicate to put sense on devices that do come with lower versions of sense or sensed android....).
wow, i searched "HTC sense" in this forum and the FIRST result (other than your topic) was:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053409
SEARCH.
Not to stick up for the OP but he is talking about actually potting sense to atrix. Your post above is about a mock sense using different launchers and themes

you can't port sense UI to this phone. the only relevant solution is what i linked to.
Here is a Sense rom for the Nexus One:

The Sense framework is deeply embedded. I see that there may be a Nexus port but that's a developer phone with tons of active devs. We haven't even achieved an unlocked bootloader so Sense is as far out of reach as it comes.
If you're looking for Sense your best bet is to get an HTC device that supports it natively. rmk40 has a Sensation now and is super pumped to start developing for it. He always develops extremely clean, fast and highly optimized ROMS with relative tweak and minimal bloat. I'm positive that once the Sensation bootloader is unlocked he'll be pumping out the good stuff. I can't wait!

I know there are some tweaks and similar apps out there but it just doesn't compare. People ***** and moan about Sense being slow and bloated, but rmk40's ROMs are absolutely beautiful. Now that we have a lot more tweaks for our Atrix devices I'm still really pleased, but I still desire the HTC Sense experience again. I freeze lots of apps but things like the Social Dialer and other widgets are just too beautiful to pass up.

Yes but tour link noy only didnt answer what the op was asking. Your attitude didn't help with an inccorrect post. All you had to do was explain that sense is closed and propriotery and very difficult to port to an open phone let alone a locked down one like the atrix

STUPID Sense 3.6 you suck!!!!!!

I am sorry for bringing this up. I know how you guys feel about ICS posts.
But since the designated ALL ICS thread is so cluttered. I felt compelled to ask on a separate thread because this is a real issue.
When I saw a video demonstration that Samsung and Google did about ICS... I saw much more attractive features than I have received with my current update.

I don't see half this stuff that I saw on the demo!!!
I want the stock dialer, the lock screen, ect.
STUPID SENSE I HATE YOU!
Now that we have S-OFF and ICS ..... lets work on a way to get that stock look going!!! Yay!

As soon as someone gets the leak deodexed I'll be working on a very slimmed down sense that will be very much like Aosp. I'm already running the stock launcher with aosp apps and much of Sense taken out. I just can't really distribute it until a deodexed version is made first.

what exactly do you not like about sense, or think that HTC has made worse. I'm not taking sides, just wanted to know what those things are! I havn't upgraded myself yet, but was wondering. a list would be awesome Thanks.

Vote: What flavor of ICS do you want worked on most?

Maybe some devs are just blown away by the options - or maybe they don't think this device is that popular? Blow them away by voting and showing how in demand their services are - and for what!
There is a lot of variety out there right now- and with the official ICS leak these things SHOULD be much more possible, so let me ask you what flavor of ICS do you want the most?
All examples are from vibrant because I have tested all of them on my old phone.. many of the more popular devices have them all.
Ports/official:
Slim ICS - Clean, Simple, and fast - the google way - as barebone aosp as it gets.(Can you say a 75mb download?)
Something like MIUI - A feature heavy nearly total redesign of Android - everything about this type of rom is different - but most of you probably know that. Easily themable in every aspect. Some of the features are here(don't forget it takes advantage of all the new features of ICS)
AOSP(Android open source project) - Either official CM9 or pure AOSP - the stock experience without our blessed "SenseUI" we all have come to love/hate - CM9 of course has some extra features.. and is also easily themable.
AOKP(Android open kang project) - Much like a feature rich version of CM9, while still aiming at a stock experience - if you want to know the differences click here(or check some of the features here)
SenseUI+ - Do you just want modified Senseui with some tweaks? Maybe some root, crt displays, power menu options.. just a stock+ experience? If so go to the development section, it has only been a week yet some good roms seem to be popping up all over(*cough* signature *cough*).
I like stock - HTC and Tmobile decide what I should use, and that's the way I like it! The most I could ask for, if I was feeling risky, is to get a little bit of root. Maybe.
Gingerbread - Damn this new radio! My battery sucks! Life sucks! How dare they leak a rom that isn't even finished! Those @ss&*#(s!
I'm gonna buy a new phone - You guys are noobs, I'm gonna buy a new phone!
If I missed an option, I'm sorry.. send me a PM and I'll see if I can add it to the list- but these are some of the choices out there, maybe help out devs and the potential ones alike by shouting at them all in one place!(rather than in their threads- I'm pretty sure they hate that.)

And yet there is no vote for MIUI? What gives?
I haven't seen that sense4 has enough improvements over 3.6, and then there is the fact that many of those features were integrated into ICS anyways.. is it worth the slowdown?
Now Miui on the other hand has some really original features..
I voted on MIUI after posting. Had it on my HD2 and couldn't wish for anything better!
