HTC Sense UI on Android 2.0 Donut

If I'm not mistaken HTC's Sense UI is build on top of Android 1.5 Cupcake.
It struck me it would be nice to the the HTC UI on top on the new 2.0 Donut build.
I wondered what are the thoughts of the people on this forum on this.
Does anybody think HTC will do this and will they do it for the Hero as well as newer HTC hardware?
If HTC don't do this for the Hero would anybody else be able to? e.g. MoDaCo?
Apologies if some of my comments/questions are a bit naive or uneducated but I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Some correction:
The new Android SDK version is 1.6, not 2.0
1.6's name is Donut, Donut is not 2.0
One would hope that HTC will update the Hero firmware to Android 1.6 and beyond for as long as the hardware can take it.
If not, I'm sure MoDaCo and others will be playing with this...
well at least the next TWO android updates shouldn't be any problem for the hero and i strongly believe that HTC will provide the updates.
I mean they are doing the same with the new WiMo devices: Touch Diamond 2 and Touch Pro 2 will both get official WM 6.5 updates.
I do believe that the latest MoDaco Rom has components from Donut. Not the new features, just some of the performance stuff.
It's almost an impossible task to get Sense running on Donut without it being sourced from HTC. For one, we don't have the kernel source to even make a donut build. Then you have the problem of getting htc's framework to play nice with the updated 1.6 framework. Even if you do get the htc framework (for Hero) to run on top of 1.6, Sense is still built atop 1.5, so it's no like you'll be able to use global search from Rosie, you'd get a bunch of forcecloses on settings and other key places.
We'll just have to wait for htc to either release 1.6 sense for Hero or use Tattoo's 1.6 sense and port it to Hero, by the way, anybody have a dump yet?

Thanks for the correction.
And thanks everyone for your thoughts - I'd be excited to see HTC bring 1.6 to the hero.
Well afer seeing this link:
http://www.htcheroblog.com/2009/09/25/sprint’s-htc-hero-to-launch-with-android-1-6/
which says that Sprint's Hero will already have Android 1.6, obviously running similar (if not the same) Sense UI, I don't see why it should take too long for us European Hero owners to have Sense UI smoothly running on the new 1.6 firmware. I am quite hopeful.
Tattoo is what you're looking for. It's a brighter version of Hero (grey instead of black) but has the widgets and overall appeal. Supports native QVGA resolution. Built on Donut from the start.
I'd like to figure out how to get it on a plain Donut build though.

There is already tattoo bootable port for hero youd have to unodex the whole build and port particular parts to 1.6 or change over the whole framework.apk after unodex'ing to support our 160dpi LCD screens over the tattoos 120dpi screen
gimme a second ill grab the link for this guys thread that ported tattoo for hero the rapidshare links are on page two youll have to fastboot his build its not just an update.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564984
hes already got it going on the hero im working on mytouch(magic) and Dream right now
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566501
I have a Kaiser and have Tattoo working just fine. I think it came from the Sapphire threads. Then I have 120 dpi on a QVGA screen as well. Still, I ran it at Hero's resolution and the only thing I could see was that the images were not scaled but it functioned correctly (like the slider bar was cutting off the Phone button on the home screen) so that should be easy to fix. I don't know what you mean about unodexing as I believe that they either don't need it or at the least you can just sign the file back once you've swapped images.
I'd like to know what dependencies it has with the fun of tweaking Hero is rolling over to Tattoo. I'd like SenseUI on a bare Donut to make it a little more stable.
yeah without a doubt we'll be seeing 1.6 + sense in the near future.
the android 1.6 demo suggests that android cupcake doesnt support cdma, donut will. so for the sprint hero to run at all they'll need donut.
hopefully we'll see the donut come out of the oven in the near future
I've got nothing but failed attempts at getting Hero on Cupcake and Tattoo on Donut native ROMs. Maybe someone more experienced can figure out the dependency hell involved. I don't have a MyTouch but I know my way around the ROMs. The only thing you should need is the /system folder from Tattoo and mod boot.img's init script. Or are you having issues getting Donut to run at all?
twittter
if you subsribe to htc on twitter, they usually send out updates, and from what i have been getting we will be gettign 1.6 for sure on the hero.. they just wont give us a when!

[Q] Sense 3.0 (or Sense 3.5) for Legend? Is it possible?

Hi... Can we get new Sense 3.0 (or Sense 3.5) on Legend?
Sense 3.0 has more function than Sense 2.1. It is more beautiful.
I know someone make sense 2.1 on legend. I think sense 3.0 can also be ported on legend.
I hope that it gets ported from the htc sensation or the htc pyramid. But i don't know if it's possible.
From what I've heard Sense 3.0 needs allot of performance and the legend isn't powerful enough, but hey i could be wrong lets just let the devs decide
Requirements
HTC confirmed that the all-new HTC Sense
3.0 enhancements will only appear on a
select few of the company’s 2011 Android
hardware range – the EVO 3D, HTC Flyer
and Sensation, via twitter

Damn these 2 year contracts. Also, I spy another stupidly off topic thread coming up. And we'll get Sense 3.0 tomorrow

Can't wait
this is how the company makes money
People have this running on hdpi htc devices like the desire. However unless htc releases this for a lower spec phone i doubt we'll get it.
I wouldn't count on it.
If we can convert the sense 3.0 from HDPI to MDPI maybe we can have sense 3.0 on legend.
I doubt it, but even if we did it would be really laggy. Maybe we'll get features from Sense 3.0 for ogo2's Gingerbread Sense ROM like they do on the Desire? They have the lockscreen among other Sense 3.0 features. That ROM isn't even fully working yet so maybe that'll be a suggestion for the future.

Don't forget the HDPI version is already resized...and without (maybe even with) heavy optimizations I doubt the Ardeno 200 has a computing power / consumption ratio that would enable you to have Sense 3 and some reasonable durability...
before you talk about sense 3 wait for the final sense 2.1 rom for legend.
Ya, Sense 2.1 Beta 2 is out, and its amazing ROM. IDK if Sense 3.0 would be possible to port.
Does Sense 3.0 comes to the Wildfire S?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Unless it unlocks the CPU to run on 1,2 GHz it won't
I think sense 3.0 roms are to large for the Legend
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA Premium App
I don't think it's a matter of size.... once resized to MDPI and optimized most of resources (images) would have been nearly 75% smaller than "originals" from HDPI

skins???

Want Sense 3.0 skins!! Mainly skins from Sense 2.0 such as Slate or Metal (for Sense 3.0 of course). Would love it if anybody could help. Doesn't seem as though we will be getting any help from HTC on this and haven't seen any threads for this so far and I know people here can make it happen!!

I believe HTC Sense requires quite a bit of OS integration. Maybe even more than what Sony Ericsson uses with their Rachael interface.
Also, HTC has claimed that Sense 3.0 has certain hardware specs (most likely available RAM) that had to be met. That was the reason why they didn't update Sense for older HTC hardware such as the Supersonic/EVO 4G (although XDA devs have already come up with custom ROMs for the EVO 4G that have Sense 3.0).
There should be 3rd-party launchers, home screens, lock screens, widgets, themes, etc. that can be used to simulate the look and feel of Sense 3.0 without having to create some kind of custom ROM image. Have you tried that route?

[Q] HTC Sense

Can we port HTC Sense from HTC Wildfire S to the Xperia Active/Mini/MiniPro/Live?
i'll try making a port once i figure out my live if i can ofcourse cos i've always been a fan of htc sense
I created the HTC Sense theme for my Xperia Mini Pro similar to my previous project for X10mini:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821790
I can share my XMP HTC sense theme is anyone interested in
It is my understanding that Sense is incredibly difficult/next to impossible to port a fully functioning Sense system to any other brand of device - so best of luck
Your best bet, in my opinion, is to make an amalgamation of all of the best Sense themes around.
Also, Launcher Pro is very easily themed to look like Sense, there are even widget skins that look the part!
I see no one interested
