[Q] Sense for Motorola Photon? - Motorola Photon 4G

As the title states.... Is it possible to port a sense rom to the Motorola Photon? Reason for asking is because I'm undecided between the Photon and the Evo 3D... I like the Photon's quickness but at the same time like the new sense 3.0...

not at this time. most sense ports require someone doing some HEAVY kernel lifting.. as it stands at this time there are no true custom kernels out for teh photon

i havent played around with sense 3.0 much, but with what was on my EVO 4G i remember it being like vista to a PC. It was large and heavy on processing.
Im not too sure the size of blur on the Photon, but it def seems pretty fast and lite.
What things have you liked about HTC Sense that has you interested?

The notification bar in sense 3.0 is its best feature.

Interesting.. Do you think it's possible to have a Sense'd out Notification bar only and the rest stock.
Even my wife's Epic 4g has the all the toggles for 4g, wifi, gps, etc. in the notifcation drop down at any time - I love that, but currently can't do on the MoPho... If that were to become a reality, I'd gladly pay for it

you can make your rom look very much like sense with the notification bar controls, lockscreen and homepage from different apps and widgets in the market.

How's your kernel coming along Shabby? I saw that you had compiled one a while back.

For the Sense-like notification bar, just install Notification Toggle (link).
For Sense-like 3D animation, just install SPB Shell (link).

Yeah I finally got the kernel compiled successfully after applying that quick patch you noted. One thing you should correct though is you used the "delete" marker on the line that needs to be added (you have it reversed) in github. Time to try out some overclocking

So no sense on photon

yea thats definitely a bummer i really wanted to see the sense on the photon.

Why would anyone want sense lol? Just get an HTC phone. Sense is the laggiest piece of **** I've ever ran (had 4 evo 3D's) I'd never run sense. Every sense phone I've owned was rooted the first day and switched to cm(aosp).

Its so heavy that it actually takes away from performance....may not cause "problems" but the evo 3D is perfect example. When sense is removed the 3D is a totally different device on aosp.

HTC Evo 3D

Have u heard of the new HTC Evo 3D its freakin insane check it out here
htc.com/www. triple cameras front facing and 2 back cameras for 3d 1080p video
and picture taking with a totally redesigned version of sense ui. Also with DUAL
CORE processor. YEA I SAID THAT. 1.2 gh. We need to try to get this new sense
ported as soon as the dump gets released and I really want as many people as possible to contribute with this thread and when it gets released this summer we need to get
porting asap. But it will hard and im not sure if it is possible because it has a
qHD display. I did see the HTC Eris get a QVGA sense rom ported to it even
though the Eris is HVGA and it worked but had a lot of bugs. So im very serious about this I really want this rom and I think we can do this. We just need to try to get qHD lowered to WVGA if possible then it will be just like porting a new rom.

Did you see the new Sense UI? Amazing! Do we already know if it's gonna be in the Gingerbread-update for the Desire HD & Co?
--> Have a look at pocket-lint.com/news/39228/htc-sense-ui-updates-new
I talked to HTC and they said that the Droid Incredible will get android 2.3 but not sure weather it will be a sense ui update or not. If so it may have that version of sense. So if the Incredible will get 2.3 desire z/hd 100% will but not sure if it will have this new sense.

I can do the same, if I make sure I unplug it at the right time, run juicedefender, don't use the gps and all that... it would be really nice to never have to think about the battery ... plug it in before I go to bed, wake up - use ... but if I use the RunKeeper w/DoubleTwist playing - I lose 15-20% in 90 minutes (a good bike ride). I have the Evo battery - running Lou's #8 and Skyraider - I do ok, but stock - the battery life is crap.

Aosp ahhhh!

Well it's official I am completely addicted to the status of AOSP for the Evo 3D and the Sensation.... I'm checking every couple of hours. I didn't even check daily for root...

That was my dilemma on the OG4G. I liked the snappiness and vanilla feel. But I couldn't see killing a feature that made the phone unique. (4G). So I always went back to sense.
I don't see me moving to an AOSP if 3D and MHL die. :/

We can, or will be able to. EMMC phones are quad booting roms! Nobody has made it work for us yet because there is no reason, yet. All the roms are pretty much the same. Some roms look this way, others that way, in the end they all have same mods to them over the same base. CM can be had faster IF cyanogen got more involved, look how fast they got CM booting on the TouchPad, maybe a bounty would speed things up around here

HTC sense and ics.

So since ics has basically almost everything sense has. I wonder what htc will add to sense. What do you guys think? They might have to come out with something really new , like a new feature to make people want to buy a phone with ics sense. I love sense so maybe the collaboration will be awesome! For the people waiting for an official update it might be awhile till they cook sense into it. But we'll see what happens.

I just hope to God HTC doesn't plaster their hideous outdated looking theme all over ICS. PLEASE stick to the stock ICS look.
I want to see a mix of both (Sense fanboy) but I want to see more theme's from HTC via HTC Hub.
I like the Music Sense Theme but they need others, none of the themes from Sense 2.1 are available on 3.x. :/ I was digging the wood theme.
What I want to see a new Sense 4.x/ICS combo:
Integrate Foursquare & Google+ API into FriendStream
Add more cloud/network features to HTCSense.com (Think MIQ/Dashwire)
Sense Updater/Rollback/Remove options
Voice Changer (Tiny (chipmunk) to Deep (Vader)) Kinda like on the PS3.
Font Changer
Deeper weather options
Better HDMI out options
More connected Media features
NFC SD card support
More HTC Hub content
Uninstallable HTC Sense components

Now, come on. You know it will have sense. Likely 3.0, it does not seem like they make a habit of updating sense in a phone that has been out.

It's absolutely going to be Sense. There is no doubt about that, regardless of our opinions on Sense (and I happen to disagree with you) HTC won't let go of one of the biggest end-user differentiation that their handsets across the range carry (excluding the Nexus One, of course)

An Amazing idea.

Well, dev's have successfully ported over some sense ROM's with higher versions of android and Sense Software. Can someone manage to port over Sense 1.0, like the OG EVO has ATM. I am willing to test everything out, it can't be that hard, right?
Sense 1.0 was the original sense on the HTC hero I believe and was android 1.5
Why would you want that?

You know what? I thought of that a longgg time ago but never said anything cuz I thought I'd get flamed lol...that would be really interesting though I wonder how the battery would be too
I don't believe any version of sense below 3.0 was made for qhd devices. Therefore to port an older version of sense would require a lot of re-sizing and m10 editing I believe. I think someone would have to be really dedicated to the project to put in the time required. That being said, I think sense 2.1 would run extremely well on this phone. The downsides would be that you'd have to run gingerbread, you'd lose some features, and of course the tedious re-sizing of many of the images. The idea is interesting though!

what about just using an AOSP rom? you get 4.0, NO overlay (so faster), and there are already people working on it.

What about using other launchers, like GO and others?
IMO a monumental waste of good development time that can be better spent with ICS and soon to be JellyBean. We did everything we could to get rid of it on the Hero as fast as possible. We ported 3.5 and never looked back.
Just my 2 pennies. If someone did put the work into it. Kudos. But I sure am not going to.

Let's go super retro (relatively speaking) and get a home/launcher that's like TouchFLO on the Touch Diamond 2! I thought that was awesome when I had that phone.

Kinda agree with nineinch and drachen. If u really want to go that far back just use a senseless Rom. The android 1.5 and sense 1.0 is really such a step back that aosp should give u the speed your looking for and actually look better. And I am a huge sense fan saying this

I've thought about pulling down the Donut branch from AOSP and testing it on these modern devices.
It was arguably the fastest Android flavor ever. I remember going to Eclair from Donut and feeling let down by the speed, requiring a faster processor.
Cool idea OP on doing Sense 1.0

Evo LTE 4.2.1 with Sense?

I purchased my LTE specifically for sense. I like sense even if some people do not. I have read on here where people are not going with 4.2 because it does not have sense. I have tested a few roms tonight that do not have sense. I still would rather have sense...
Million dollar question... When is someone going to make a rom with sense?
I actually found a 4.5 sense and beats zip but for some reason when I try to load it the thing is locked out for my device...

I am really warming up the the CM10.1 4.2 build but still miss some of the features of sense. I wish the clock would automatically select my location like with sense. Or when you click the clock see weather or alarm depending on where you click. The stock camera is also jacked up as well. I lost slow motion options.
You should try one of the De-sensed roms. I.e. sos, bareback, etc
It keeps the best things about sense like camera, but is pretty much like cm10 everywhere else

The weather should still detect your location on AOSP. Or use any one of a thousand different clock widgets from the market. And yes, they too, will go to weather or clock depending on where you click. Many are much nicer than what HTC has to offer, and some are identical.

Same here. I've owned both the GS3 and the Note 2 and had problems with both. And I'm not talking had them for days or even weeks.. I had the GS3 for months and the Note lasted me just over a month. Came back to HTC and have been happy since.

I am really warming up the the CM10.1 4.2 build but still miss some of the features of sense. I wish the clock would automatically select my location like with sense. Or when you click the clock see weather or alarm depending on where you click. The stock camera is also jacked up as well. I lost slow motion options.

I use weather bug elite and and it works fine. Updates my location once and hour and also shows me forecasts as well. You can also get the chronus.apk for your 4.2 lockscreen and it will show you time and weather at your location right on the lockscreen.
