Looks extremely underwhelming...
Better than I expected.
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
Still looks horrible. =[
I think it looks terrible...nothing like ICS.
I'm Batman..
How is it "extremely underwhelming" ? Did you really expect a Sense-free release?! What were you expecting to get?
We are getting a major API revision and the long awaited HW acceleration.
This is far from underwhelming.
Its time for HTC to make sense OPTIONAL. Half of us switch to AOSP roms anyways. Looks like junk compared to stock ICS though.
Meh, boring, much rather prefer vanilla. On the plus side I guess it will help EVO 3D development.
It doesn't look much different from ginger bread with sense.
Guess whats getting ported today
I don't see the issue. It's updated, It's how HTC makes it, if It's not pretty, we theme it. If you don't like sense, then why comment? Obviously you're going to run cm9 or some other form of aosp.

I am going to take a stab on the port as well. The download is painfully slow however
"Sense based ICS ROM." It wont be the real deal until HTC releases it themselves in my opinion. Also, just leave it alone Joelz.

It is not too hard to build an ASOP if we have a working rom
So how did they get this? j/w b/c this is the first pure leak ive seen for us since Sinper's site was shut down long long ago. EDIT: I guess Capy has a source inside HTC to an extent!! Wish we could get an EVO3D leaker to come out lol.
Also to the Sense 3.5 on it is a little confusing b/c it looks nothing like either of the other sense 3.5 phone builds out, the high power one nor the low end device one.
I agree it likely/HOPEFULLY is saying sense3.5 on it b/c they are not fully done with it yet.
Keep the Thread Clean Guy's or you will force me to lock it
So with the port I'm gonna say that 4g won't work?

Loving my new phone! It's wicked fast and it's just plain badass. I've removed what ever bloatware I could, but in all honesty I wish I could remove Sense and go to CM on this phone I can only imagine how fast it's going to be! Sadly it'll probably be a long time before things like 3D get ported into CM (WiMax, anyone?) but I think the wait till definitely be worth it.
This phone is fast, but you have to admit, there is A LOT of crap on it, and most of it is HTC related. Don't get me wrong, it all works, but I'm a simpleton in that sense (no pun intended).
I think it it funny that people only care about how fast there phone moves. The EVO 3d moves fast enough to do anything you want to do without a hiccup and has the wonderful overlay of Sense.
What else does CM7 give you? I ran it on my EVO and it is not like it will make your EVO 3d a step up from what it is now. It just brings you back to basics. If it is basics that you want, why not just buy a Nexus 4G. I am sure CM7 runs pretty fast on that.
Maybe when we have CM8 with ice cream it might be worth moving to as it hopefully boosts some new features for us and the CM team will probably have it ported before HTC gives us an update for it.
Right now I say Sense 3.0 ftw!
Right on. I'm a hugggggggeeee cm7 fan for my evo 4g but this 3d has wings.... EVEN with sense going.

As is common practice.. the more power the device has, the more the devs use.
Sense 3.0 is a HORRIBLE display of overindulgence. I know people will like it, and that is all well and good. Not everyone needs all that extra RAM and storage the phone came with (to cover for Sense). But, I can't wait to get rid of Sense. I don't use it, except for the integration that I can't disable.
I can't wait until we get optimized builds of the stock rom. Maybe a little themeing too.

Amen. This. It is pretty, but most of that 'pretty' is, well, pretty functionless...and that out of 1024mb of RAM I have ~225mb free with nearly nothing going on? Sad.
Sure, sense is sleek...kinda...but it's a bloated sloppy hog of a shell/ui/launcher. LP/ADW rock ass on this phone, I just wish I could ditch all of the pointless cruft Sense drags along....not to mention some of the more advanced tweaking the custom AOSP roms bring to the table, esp regarding performance and battery life.
I am pretty much all about change. Its fun to see different looks on the phone, that's why CM7 was soo refreshing for my OG EVO. Then I bought the Nexus S and loved the pure google experience, and now I am appreciating the Sense 3.0.
There is definitely quite a bit going on with this sense 3.0...but it is hard to imagine it ever having issues as far as performance is concerned. So I am in no rush whatsoever for CM to make it's way on the EVO3D.
Cm is awesome. But just wait my friends. Once we get root, we will get this baby optimized, clean out the crap on here and then she will really take off. Also, getting the sensation and kingdom ports on here will be cool.
I know virus is already looking at stripping out the sense to give it the turbo boost most are looking for...

I love CM. The latest updates as fast as possible plus custom tweaks that make the phone that much more easy and usable. Sense isn't too bad just yet as it's still new again to me, but things like the unlock/answer screen when a call comes in and the god awful notification bar and curtain make me hate it. Can't wait for CM.

I'm indifferent about the notification bar/curtain... It's not bad.... I like the CM styling better, but only slightly.
I switched to this bad boy from a Hero running AOSP Froyo, and I realized how much I missed sense. On the hero it was terrible, when it couldn't run anything, but with this phone I love it. So intuitive, and the music player and everything is great, I sure don't see myself dumping sense 3.0
Don't understand why you would buy an HTC phone to throw out Sense and go with generic CM ?
If I was gonna run CM 7.1, for sire would not buy an HTC phone, these phones are so thick and bulky and poor battery life. Even with custom kernels and different roms its better, but I would get a Galaxy S 2 a milion years over the EVO-3D for CM 7.1
I buy the EVO for Sense #1, and wait for the best Sense based Rom made by Myn. It is way better than CM.

Those features come at a price, one that I'd rather not pay. I'm glad you enjoy em, I just can't wait to shed em.
I think tried CM7 and I enjoyed it but I can't wait for MIUI to make it or even MYN and Evoking to put their touch to it. That is definitely worth the wait.

OK so extreme props to guys like joelz that are actually trying to port sense 3.5 to the evo 3d... but why is there so few attempts ? the evo 4g has it and its great ... yet the evo 3d doesnt, why does it seem like all the rom attention still goes out to the evo 4g when its more than obsolete

Few attempts are made because Sense 3.5 is hideous looking.
Two out of place buttons on your homescreen with a bar of widgets on the left? Absolutely atrocious. It doesn't even deserve the .5 increment in build strings, as it is no way any sort of improvement over Sense 3.0. The underlining framework may indeed deserve the increase, but the appearance sure as hell doesn't. It should have been called Sense 3.0 lite for women.

sense 3.5 is awesome looking man ... the two buttons is smart its way better than 3.0s bar across the bottom eating up useless space for no good reason other than to look like your typical trash smartphone ... its more unique and as for the 4 bars on the left side ... thats a widget remove it easy enough on that one ... like he said if you dont like it dont use it ... but overall it is much smoother running ... and there are no good roms for the evo 3d ... they all apear as stock or stripped down to nothing neat at all ... Joelz rom for the bliss 3.5 port will be the **** because for once that developer is at least trying something unique instead of focusing on what every other developer is doing ... basically themed 2.3.4 roms

The 4g has always had tons of dev support. And it's far from obsolete, I may have traded up to a 3D, but the 4G is still a very capable phone.
I played with a sense 3.5 rom on my friend's thunderbolt, it's smoother and snapper than sense 3.0 on my 3D. Tough to say if it's worth the effort, but it would be nice to have the option. The reasons for not developing this do make sense tho.
I think its because developers are already in too deep with their current roms, which some are still far from done. & like most of the other comments posted, its not appealing. Its not that bad looking, but none the less not the best.
If there's someone that's not on one of the already popular sense roms, they are on AOSP. There's just no focus towards 3.5 right now because other things are in demand.
The OG Evo has it because they can focus on things that hasn't been done. I mean that phone is pushing on its second year in the game, what else do you expect?

Most of the devs had nothing to work with when the EVO 3D got root. That is why there are 'themed' 2.3.4 ROMs, and we still have nothing to work with that is as good as Sense. AOSP is the ONLY other alternative, which in turn birthed MIUI. Nobody would dare try and port a crappy TouchWhiz UI to the EVO 3D. What else is there?

It's okay, I'm not taking offense, and you're right--I do enjoy minimalism, but to a certain extent. You have to understand that in removing the Sense launcher and widgets, that's all that's really done. The Launcher (Rosie), while being a decent launcher for the average person, is VERY VERY limited in terms of customization. I assumed, and that was probably a bad idea considering how popular my/sense removed ROMs are in comparison to full Sense, that more people would feel the same. You can achieve almost identically what Sense has from a Senseless ROM with a bit of time and effort. LauncherPro easily outclasses HTC's Launcher in terms of customization, performance, and looks. You can easily skin just about any launcher to look like Sense if you really wanted to. The only thing HTC has going for its launcher is its widgets, which unfortunately aren't able to be used with other launchers. Other than that, I truly don't see the appeal so many people have with sticking to what HTC thinks you need to stick to with its Launcher. There are countless mods that try and improve upon it, but in the end it's still limited. So, that says to me that I'm the kind of person who enjoys as little constraints in customizing my phone as possible.
htc widgets
thats super lame that the htc widgets cant be used elsewhere because your right they are really nice

It's all good man, we like what we like. I didn't really expect too many to jump on it. I mainly created it for myself, but figured the community could maybe benefit from it.
Boot Manager allows me to try out pretty much any ROM now a days without having to do anything to mine, so I'm good to go when I need to see what other people have accomplished, which still do this day, isn't very much in comparison to mine. Good thing about these Sense ROMs is that anything you want from one can easily be put into another.

ya but they have the advantage of being more dev friendly!!! I'm very surprised given the history of HTC, they were basically making phones before any of these guys showed up. and yet there are always problems with their dev community...and make it much harder for the developers to work! I still don't think my brother has gingerbread!
makes me miss my sensation even more,,
I got the ICS update for my WiFi Motorola Xoom middle of last week. The OTA came out about 2 weeks after posts about its testing by a smaller group started popping-up on XDA.
However there are a few big differences here:
1) The Xoom was already on Honeycomb which is a lot closer to ICS than Gingerbread. Hopefully the Galaxy Nexus has developers already working on ICS compatibility. When I first got my Honeycomb tablet a year ago lots of applications had major problems on the new OS.
2) The Xoom is a Google Experience device so no manufacturer overlay to add complexity to the testing.
3) The WiFi Xooms are not tied to a wireless carrier.
My guess is these things are going to increase the test time. Hopefully not by too much. My first guess is a month - really depends on the quality of the early releases.
I thought I read somewhere that the update will be coming in February. But once it's out, and HTC is nice enough to release the stock rom, then we will start seeing stock ics roms with everything working.
HTC will always put Sense on all their roms.
Pretty sure ICS for the Amaze will have Sense, which isn't that bad. I think there are some decent widgets for Sense 3.6.
I hope with sense they won't force us to have that google search bar at the top of our screens
Hey everyone, I wanted to know your guys' opinion on which interface you like more? Do you prefer Sense or AOKP/Cyanogenmod 9 and why?
oh and also, which one has better battery life?
The day cm9 works fine on this phone is the last day I ever use sense in my whole life.
typically for me (especially now that sense is actually decent) i stay with sense until a really nice stock rom comes out then go to that and after a few months go back to sense and so on and so ........................ect.
I have no problem with Sense, but always end up running CM. There are just too many tweaks I want to make to my phone that Sense ROM's never seem to bake in. With Sense ROM's I'm usually going "crap I wish I could do that!" With CM it's "Sweet! I can do that!"
I think i like sense more. It is more refined. I like the look of aosp ics though. I'm really hoping a nice blue sense theme is released sometime.
The hardware is good enough that i do not believe one will perform better than the other like in the past.
The fact that the notification light doesn't time out on stock draws me to it though. It is my biggest complaint about sense.
When CM9/AOKP becomes more bug free, I'll try it out. I used CM7 a ton on my OG and AOKP quite a bit on my 3D.
Until then, I'm not even rooting my phone. I see no reason to as of yet.

Thank you! I tried using a Sense 4.0 rom and I loved it but the only problem was no 4G so I had to go back to 3.6. I knew about the lack of 3D and that was ok with me, but WiMAX sometimes is the only way I can get decent data so it will be nice to get go back to Sense 4.0. Unfortunately I don't think 3D has much of a chance, but that would just perfect the phone, why HTC decided to go with Sense 3.6 over the much better Sense 4.0 is beyond me...

Oh, cool! I tried this ROM when it first came out and really liked it, but since 3g is completely unusable I couldn't use it for more than several hours at a time (mainly while I was at work). I vowed to really make this my daily once it was complete (4g).
I had actually kinda forgotten about it since then.

I'm going to propose a controversial theory. Let me preface it by saying I believe newtoroot to be an excelent if not the best actual developer on our device. He brought Sense 4.0 before anyone and it was nearly flawless on the first drop. That being said, I think one of two things:
1. Newtoroot was playing us. (I doubt it, but someone suggested this and anything is possible.)
2. Newtoroot had high hopes, but it was more difficult than anticipated and is either taking longer or has been given up on.
Those being said. In his thread elsewhere he has stated that he is out of work and trying to find some. As well as dealing with the things that being out of work bring. So lots of personal stuff may indeed have gotten in the way.
I would say that if it were possible, or at least easier, one of the several other developers working on Sense 4.0+ roms would have attempted of done it already. I don't personally use WiMax often so it is not a big deal. I do appreactiate all the devs that work on our device. I usually swap phones every few months, but have kept my EVO 3D since the day it came out. Next summer when my 2 years is up I will upgrade to something with LTE hopefully, but till then I can still feed my flashing adiction and gets lots of performance out of this still powerful phone.
I do think it's a tough nut to crack. My theory is that's why we have Sense 3.6 and not Sense 4 - even HTC had trouble getting WiMAX and 3d working on 4 (or didn't want to put the resources behind it since both are relatively dead, at least for now).
It would have been nice to have 4G on it, although I don't even get 4G in my area..

Does anyone know what happened with newtoroot's 4G on Sense 4.1?
Haven't heard anything for quite a while now.
