Hey all,
I'm having the moment vs hero debate with myself that a few others have posted threads about on here. I'm wondering if there's a good chance that htc sense will be lifted out of the hero rom and available for install on other devices (read: the moment) similar to how manila was on windows mobile devices. I understand the hardware differences, to me Sense UI will be either a game breaker or a game maker.
Thoughts?
Try asking someone on a dev forum for the Moment!
Regards,
Dave
Don't think that's gonna happen sense is from HTC and is not free to duplicate.
Also not saying the moment isn't as good or even better then the hero but if you'd run sense on the moment it might be very lagging.
Since even if it's made it won't be optimized for the moment (since htc won't make it anyhow)
Old thread but thought i would clarify..
There was some interest in getting sense working on the sph-m900 samsung moment... but that has pretty much died down since we seem to be very close to a fully working 2.1 rom...
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

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?

Unless it unlocks the CPU to run on 1,2 GHz it won't

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
Hello there dear Andoid wizards.
Simple question. Is it possible/will it be possible/do you think it will be possible to port HTC Sense 3.0 to the Samsung Galaxy S II?
I'd like to know too. Not gonna lie, the new Sense looks amazing. They ported some form of Sense to the original SGS so I assume it will be possible. Don't think everything worked on those builds though.
No. I wish.
Due to CPU/GPU architecture and the closed source, 90% sure it won't be ported
Plus the problem of it been designed for a higher res screen will cause issues porting it
Higher res is not a problem. Running sense 3.0 on my desire hd. Thx to capy and his team

I dont se why sense 3.0 shod be problem to port to SGS2 . I'm running sense 3.0. It was made possible by the amazing work of Flemmard and Diamondback, who reverse engiineered the m10 format and built an encoder/decoder. The two of them also made the specific adjustments necessary to this particular ROM's applications. It was also a collaborative effort across the DHD and G2/DZ communities. I've been using sense 3.0 for almost a week now and it works like charm.

is it really because of the CPU/GPU? I really would like an Galaxy S II but I hate TouchWize and I love Sense (but HTC Sensation is inferior except for qHD resolution, build quality and of course Sense 3.0)
never say never, someone just needs to want it enough as is always the case, if a game can run on different CPU's then I am sure a UI can...
I think its only a matter of time as there is version of 2.3.3 with 3.0 look available for Desire HD and Z. To be honest I mostly want the widgets
Sense to be open-sourced
Hi Guys,
as you might already have caught, HTC is on a customer satisfaction rampage and announced to opensource Sense along with some other customizations yesterday!
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...h-scribe-tablet-pen-and-stereoscopic-3d-apis/
I think engadget did a scoop on it also.
With that Sense on SGS2 shouldnt be a problem right?
sense 3.0 can run on a lot of phones
sense 3.0 is a launcher with a bit of extra apps and framework,
now lets say we take all the apk's for the framework , apps and launcher and we install them on a samsung galaxy s2 then we have a probably pretty crappy version of sense 3.0 installed,
now we go to
lmgtfy.com/?q=htc+sense+3.0+rom+for+galaxy+s2
and we will find a good rom
reported working phones:
*galaxy s2
*galaxy
*desire A8181
*desire HD
*desire Z
*nexus one
thats the info i know

It just looks much better than vanilla Android. It is all about how it looks.
The unlocking screen, the clock widget with weather, weather widget, the way onscreen keyboard looks...
Do the Sense 3 phones (like HTC Sensation) support all the hardware acceleration and media codecs that we have in the TW framework?
I also like Sense but I don't want a Sense ROM if I have to sacrifice my smooth UI, Browser acceleration and media codecs.
I had an HTC Desire HD and it did not have browser acceleration and media codec support though the launcher interface was fast and polished.
its imposible i think

Or you could just customize it without any modding
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I simply do not see why people are so obsessed with HTC Sense, this is coming from someone who owned a HD2 running Android for a year and a half, any sense build i had on my phone never ran as smoothly as a non sense build that is the absolute fact i tested numerous different ROM's and each and every time the non sense builds were faster and smoother,it might look good but at what cost?

I know some XDA devs tried before to port Sense on SGS without real success, but now that the Sensation is totally locked and that lot of HTC devs will get the SGS2 instead perhaps that the pros of Sense roms will port Sense 3.0 on SGS2...What do you think?
I would love sense 3.0 on sgs2 as well. Am pretty sure the hardware is fully capable
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
That would be great. The locked bootoader of the HTC Sensation will be one reason for me to switch to the Galaxy I9100. To keep the good Sense experience would be a nice gadget.
Cheers Lars
I posted this in another thread but.. I really like this idea. I know its hard but it works. If the milestone with it's locked bootloader can run sense 2.0 then SGSII definitely can. it just needs the right developers.
Because of the locked Bootloader I had to buy the SGS2 instead the Sensation, but I have to say, Touch Wiz is no Match for Sense. Missing it and would love to see that excellent Userexperiênce on the SGS2.

I'd like to see this too, just switched from a HTC Desire running sense 2.1/3.0 to a SGS2 and touchwiz is beaten hands down. The contacts and dialer app is the best I've come across on android, way better than stock/touchwiz/GoContacts
I was actually thinking about this question yesterday and was wondering if anybody made a thread about it yet... well I guess this answers my question of the day then.
If this gains enough interest im sure people will be willing to work on it. I have seen videos of sense 2.0 on a SGS and motorola milestone, so lets hope for the best

I would love to see this too! I miss sense bad! Touch wiz or any third party launcher can't compare in my eyes.

#Many other phones have got sense 3.0 port.. is it more diffucult to port to non-htc phonrs?
Sense is the best android ui imho, i would definitely love to see it ported on my sgs2
I would love to have sense on my sgs2. I mean touch wiz is ok but sense is much nicer imo. I wouldn't be able to do anything to help, although I would, and I'm sure many others would, make a donation to any one willing. It wouldn't be much though I'm a poor student lol

ive just come from a hd2 with coredriod NAND sense rom....and I do miss sense!but the phone is the dogs...fancy widget for the weather and clock, looks identical to HTCs, sense would be good tho!
Partner has Desire S and it does have a lovely interface, but I actually like TouchWiz 5
New Touchwiz improved a lot but Sense is still much much better I think.. I hope someone ports this over..
Sense is build on Rosie UI and it's directly related to HTC hardwares, like if it searchs for an ''HTC signed'' screen or BT module.
Though like we always says in software world and more specially in Linux...nothing is impossible!
You need devs who can break the links between Rosie (damn junkie lady) and HTC hardware to replace them with samsung ones.
Also it would be easier to build Sense over a standar gingerbread rom than over Touchwiz
The Nexus S galaxysense dev says the galaxysense team is close to getting data working, meaning almost all hardware will work already, I hope we will see a sgs2 port soon too
Hey guys. I know the HTC EVO 3D has been on the official update list by HTC for Android 4.0. Although they haven't clarified (to my knowledge) whether it will be upgraded to Sense 3.6 or Sense 4.0
Now initially I would have thought it would for sure be Sense 4.0 because we can easily run it, and it would make no sense not to. Then I saw someone post a comment saying saying that a lot of sense 4.0's features rely in the camera and our sensors don't support that. (Sorry I don't remember who posted this)
I thought what they said though was a valid point nonetheless. Anyway I want to know what all of you think about the update and what version you believe it will get (and why) This way we can all discuss and share ideas/information.
EDIT: its confirmed were getting 3.6
3.6 Here, but hope for either. LOL
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
HTC PR Jeff Gordon said they were giving current devices the Sense 3.6 with Android 4.0 the other day when he was talking. sorry dont have a link.
but beside the point there is no way possible that HTC is going to release Sense 4.0 to anything already out. I was the one you were referring to probably in regards to the sensors and camera.
I watched 99% of their MWC event and it was 90% about the Sense 4.0 camera improvements they have made and how "ImageSense" has a dedicated Image Chip now and that coupled with the f/2.0 lens has allowed them to make all these HUGE strides in their camera area.
So without that image chip hardware and the f/2.0 lens theres no way getting Sense 4.0 on our devices. Least if you did get it on here then you would not have all the features and abilities they claimed to have like the quickness of taking pictures and clarity and such....
kinda sucks but it doesn't b/c now we know they addressed one of the issues some people used to b##ch the most about in regards to the hardware...
Here is the article btw. it was actually talking about the next nexus phone and he threw in "...HTC’s current priority is to deliver Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and HTC Sense 3.6 to its current devices..."

Alright that makes sense. It is a little disheartening. You would think they would update it to 4.0 without the extra camera features. Especially when the single core'd One V is getting 4.0. I know we will always get ports eventually, but those won't have 3D capability no matter what.
Thanks for sharing though. I am still going to hope for Sense 4.0 anyway (even though it's just wishful thinking) lol.

take it you just didn't read anything that I wrote above then....smh
My little rant aha
the One V specs?
1GHZ Single Core CPU
512MB of RAM
3.7 in 480x800
3G (no listed 4G compatibility)
And it ships with 4.0 out of the box.
The 3D
1.2 GHZ Dual-Core MSM8260 Proccesor
1GB of Ram
4.3 qHD display
4G and 3G
and will probably get sense 3.6? Kindof messed up. I mean I understand the whole camera aspect of it...but thats not ALL sense 4.0 is about. I mean yes it is a great big portion of it, but not everything.
My reasoning: The One S has a qhd display (same resolution and screen size of our 3d) so that can't be an issue, CPU, GPU, and RAM isn't really an issue.
The One X has a lower quality camera than the other 2 in the One line (although probably still far superior to our phones)
The only problems HTC should have a real tough problem with is 3D support and fixing the camera for our sensors.. which as a huge national company they should have the resources to do that for us the customer.
That being said I understand what sgt.slaughter is saying...I just like to rant
Maybe im making a bigger deal than it is, but its just a little upsetting. I feel like a samsung owner. That one might hurt a couple of you
i hope 4.0

visually 3.6 and 4.0 are not far off at all from what ive seen. The camera stuff was the headline feature of Sense 4.0 and they made it apparent in the event. besides that all thats left that sense 3.6 doesn't have is the beats integration and the dropbox stuff really...the camera is a big enough chunk to not get it when you take a step back and look at it all.
HTC confirmed that all the devices that are going to get ICS will be sense 3.5. Check their Facebook page all the information is there.
I'm just saying theres no reason for us not to get 4.0,HTC said them self they even slim down 4.0 for better performance. I remember when I had the evo 4g and it got gingerbread there was no new improvements on sense besides running gingerbread.

not reading as well....read the actual things that require to get Sense4.0 features they touted and youll see no current phone has the f/2.0 lens nor do they have the dedicated image chip both of which are vital to using Sense4.0 features they touted.
at this point those wanting 4.0 you can just edit the files to say you have 4.0 and you wont know any difference. Only thing possible your missing is dropbox, wifi sync manager, and full integrated beats...
There is a pretty big difference between 3.6 and 4.0. Lockscreen differences, keyboard, system apps like music, animations, and so on. It's more refined. 3.6 is basically 3.5 with ICS.
We will see fully working ports eventually though. Just as we did with the OG EVO and Sense 3.0/3.5.

I could have sworn they said that the Sensation elevate program users were going to get a Sense 4.0 beta, so I would then assume that the Sensation would get Sense 4.0, and therefore, so would we. I certainly hope so! Then again, the original Evo 4G has sense 3.0 ROMs, so i'm sure the wonderful developer community could get a 4.0 one working perfectly on our phones, in fact, there's already one in development!
