Hey guys, just wondering if there was anybody willing to port the new version of sense, for 2.3, to our xperias. It looks pretty cool and im also a really big fan of sense lol
Found a really nice ICS Theme for the Epic Touch 4G.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1291085
Was wondering if it could be ported?
i am upgrading to an android device in 2 days. i'm pretty excited, but i need some help on my decision. basically i am down to deciding between the HTC inspire 4g and the Samsung Infuse 4g.
I really like HTC Sense more than Touchwiz, but i like the screen size and clarity on the Infuse better. so my question is when i flash a rom onto either device does it also change the UI? in other words should i just pick the phone i want to upgrade to based on the hardware and not the software? because if i upgrade based on hardware i am going with the samsung infuse, but if i go by software i am going with the Inspire.
thanks!
Samsung Galaxy S II. FTW
INTERNET MONEY!
HTC Inspire 4G!

Being an HTC inspire 4G user, I would suggest to go for HTC inspire 4G!!!
And as far as the UI is concerned, different ROM's have different UI's like the stock ROM's for HTC inspire 4G will have the HTC Sense and stuff, whereas if you flash Cyanogenmod ROM's like CM7, they do not have Sense stuff.
But the UI is ALMOST the same for most of the ROMs, as far as I know. The only difference in custom ROM's is that they have some enhancements and remove bloatwares.
Hey guys,
I know the nexus version of the HTC One (T-mobile) is coming out in a few days but was wondering whether there is anything I would be missing out on if I had the nexus version.
Even upon doing lots of research, it seems like Sense 5 is very good but I wanted your guy's experiences. (ex: one of the links I read:
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/121382-htc-one-google-edition-vs-htc-one-what-s-the-difference)
Is there any advantage of waiting for the nexus version of the HTC One (T-mobile) and the current version? What are the things I should consider?
I was looking around at the ROMs for the T-Mobile HTC One, and none of them seemed to have Sense 5...so is sense really that bad / worse than stock?
Thanks so much!
You'll miss so much if you buy the regular Tmobile One! You'll miss not having Zoe, blinkfeed, wifi calling, htc remote, and all the sense improvements that you can easily disable by simply flashing a different rom...
I think it's silly that they made a vanilla One, you get the same phone but none of the surprisingly nice software that HTC made for it. It's like buying a "special" pair of shoes, and by "special" I mean they don't come with shoelaces.
I have used the HTC remote feature several times once set up works perfectly, also I don't think the camera will be as good seeing as technically it is 4.3mp with out the software enhancements it might be crappy as well the WiFi calling comes in handy so much and I had the nexus 4 on T-Mobile HTC one in my opinion is smoother than stock which is hard to find they did really well with every aspect of this phone

Hm.
But I was worried about the fact that updates are super slow to come from Tmobile.
We aren't even at 4.2.2 yet and if Sense 5 is so great how come we don't have Sense 5 roms in the development sections? (side note, what is "android development" vs "ORIGINAL android development").
I figured if Sense 5 was so good and better than stock, then we would have lots of Sense 5 roms.
Thanks!
There are a lot of sense 5 roms,And good ones I've been using sense 5 roms running 4.2.2 and couldn't be happier,a few good ones to check out are (venom)vipor, trickdroid, sentinel,opencoin plus quite a few more these are just the ones I ran and use the venom as my daily driver and love it so much this Rom is so customizable it'll blow your mind and stable,fast I just live it plus great dev abd support again I wouldnt give up my ir,camera software,BoomSound plus more for vanilla android

I see...do the M7 roms work or are you referring to our roms in the T-mobile HTC One sections? (I guess when I searched the titles and front pages of the roms, I didn't find anything when I searched "sense").

Well, you can do what I did... and I really like Sense 5 with one exception: we can only scroll left to right, and right to left. No continuous scroll. So I installed Nova Launcher, the sunbeam live wallpaper, and an analog clock. Look and feel is like GPE, but I still have an icon to get into blink feed, And I still have Zoe and Video highlights.
Try it.

Is it just me or does anyone one else actually prefer Sense over stock android? It seems to be more smooth and much faster to me.

I have 2 One's. Both were stock ATT. Now one is a Dev Edition with 4.3 Sense 5 (64GB model), and the other is now pure GPE (32 GB model). I can tell you this without hesitation, the GPE smokes the other for "smoothness" and accuracy, and the Dev edition battery is dead, while the GPE is still at 60% after one full day of playing side by side. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Sense and BlinkFeed, but no, the GPE is the clear winner here.
I absolutely love HTC sense! Definitely sets the One apart compared to other Android offerings. I'm running stock AT&T (not rooted) and battery life is amazing!

I prefer Sense over Stock, I have used "stock" with my s2, nexus 4 and now nexus 7, but it gets kinda boring.
I'm a massive fan of 3 things:
1. Zoe
2. Blinkfeed
3. The ability to hide apps
I ran CyanogenMod and stock on my S3, S4, and even my One, and have never been happier with an OEM overlay than I am with Sense 5.0. Stoked about 5.5!
Custom sense?
The HTC One is my first android smartphone so I guess I just need clarification. Are there custom ROMs with Sense included?
That could be a dumb question...but only one way to find out.
I really enjoy Sense but I feel like my battery life is taking a hit from it.

Go to the HTC one forums, and flash one of those roms. I'm using insert coin and love it. I also have the moto x and I feel like sense provides more features while stock is just butter smooth. I was think of converting my one to the gpe but I think I'm just going to wait and see how the dev edition works out.
