Sense 4.0 - HTC Rezound

I saw on Twitter today that Sense 4.0 leaked out. Is that what Htc is putting in the official Rezound ICS build?

Yes the official ICS Build is supposed to have Sense 4.0

Whose twitter did you see this in?

Wait a second. So your saying that HTC Rezound will be jumping from sense 3.5 GB to sense 4.0 ICS. The sense 3.6 ICS leak we have know is not going to be part of the Rezound.

It was either phonearena or phonescoop..

mrbracht beat me to it. LOL. nevermind

HI
ive summed up all the new features of the new Sense 4.0... just follow the link at my signature.
have a great day!

This looks amazing, I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Just keep the stoopid locked Google bars off the top of each page and massive navigation buttons off the bottom. I know this stuff can be avoided via root but I want to decide when to do it.
The gnex reminded me in a way of Starcraft 1. Half the screen was UI....way too much wasted space.

The Rezound won't get those on screen buttons because it already has the red touch buttons on the bottom.
The article posted also said HTC is not using the on screen buttons.

For the amount of bloat sense puts on the phone I have always liked it. But I do love the UI of the Nexus. I would love to see the new sense use UI similar to that.

You and me both but it'll never happen, the Sense UI as we know it is a huge selling point I'm sure for the more inexperienced users.

I also read tho that Google is requiring manufacturers to keep the default ics GUI if they do skins. So we might have an option to disable sense and use aosp.
I don't remember the link off hand, lemme dig it up.

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I just hope to God HTC doesn't plaster their hideous outdated looking theme all over ICS.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.
The EVO Shift had just that when it was upgraded to Gingerbread.

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)

After watching this... HTC did too much with Sense. They're just overdoing it now. Give me a slice of AOSP and we're good here.
It's also still up on Droidforums.net .. at least I just watched it there a few minutes ago.
I think it looks good personally, but I am coming from the OG droid so Sense is basically like a theme to me and I haven't noticed any lag compared to the slowness of my droid so its all good.
They just took it down at Droidforums.net as well

Shouldn't we do something about not getting sense 4

Just my opinion so don't burn me for it but I don't think we should just be okay with getting ripped and only getting sense 3.6 and them releasing sense 4 just a few months after our phone even though ics was already out when our phones were released and sense 4 in the works and I'm pretty sure if we were to all put our thoughts about it on the HTC facebook page we might be able to stirr this up and maybe actually get somewhere. Who's with me?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
Who knows if it'd work but doesn't hurt to try.
Couldn't hurt to try that's for sure. But I'm pretty sure we'll still be seeing 3.6 for the upcoming OTA. I also wonder if they have future plans to officially update the Rezound to 4.0.

I agree it wouldn't hurt to try but if VZW/HTC really hold their promise of providing Rezound users with ICS, there is nothing we should have an issue with. I am happy we're getting ICS period to be honest.
Stock ICS over Sense 4.0 would be really nice but since it likely won't happen I'll keep supporting our Devs to bring us the latest and greatest.
Us not getting Sense 4 officially is just one reason why to be thankful for devs.
What does sense 4 have that 3.6 doesn't that we can take advantage of? We don't have the new camera with image sense and beats integration apparently is more than a software setting. We have the customizable dock so what else is there?
Sent from my Rezound using Tapatalk
The reason the Rezound won't get Sense 4.0 is that there are features in 4.0 that are specific to the hardware in the HTC One Series devices. Because of the differences between those devices and all other handsets preceding them a redesign of Sense was necessary. HTC isn't trying to screw anyone here and VZW had no decision in this matter. A petition won't do any good. We haven't even seen a changelog for Sense 3.6 yet or a side by side comparison of 4.0 so it's a bit premature to be upset that the Rezound won't get 4.0.
I don't care whether we get it or not but apparently a lot of others do.
I really don't care if we get it or not because our devs will eventually prefect it anyways.

Once again, what advantages does sense 4 give you over 3.6? Besides I know that when you start frankensteining roms you tend to get broken features. See aosp on the thunderbolt.

That is a pretty good reason if you ask me. Probably would really help out the battery life too. I've easily doubled my battery life since tossing most of Sense 3.5 out.
Anyways, to answer the OP's question: YES. If you want Sense 4.0 officially because you're not willing to root and flash a ROM, then of course you should try to do something about it. The ONLY reason we arent getting Sense 4 is because they are leaving it exclusive to their upcoming devices, so they can use it as a selling point. If you don't think thats fair, you SHOULD say something. Don't expect anybody to listen... but you never know.
Was it just coincidence that HTC silently allowed Rezound on HTC Dev Unlock just a week or so after the petition was started? Maybe, but it could just as easily have been BECAUSE of the petition. I say there is no reason not to give it a shot.

As someone said already, it's just being used as a selling point for the One series.
The Rezound has already been shunned by Verizon and probably HTC after the ICS update.

I think there is some different hardware in those phones for the camera options they put in it. But they could definitely make a variation of sense 4 for us but they probably won't.

Google Now has nothing to do with Sense 4... It's a JB feature that's been ported to ICS (though we don't have the most current version ported)
The differences between the two are mostly cosmetic and improvements in processes - http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/45134/htc-sense-3-6-vs-sense-4
Neat article. I like the 3.6 clock widget better and Rosie and my seamless rotating carousel. The new Rosie reminds me of the old 'eris' days. Some of the devs used nav bars similar to sense 4+ on their sense roms.I also like my app drawer better vertical. But...I probably wouldn't complain if I had a droid dna...lol.

Have tried the 4.x ROMs and definitely prefer Sense 3.6. I like the widgets that work with Exchange much better (tasks, calendar) than with the "newer" versions. For instance, you can postpone a task by day or longer in 3.6 but postponing in 4.x is much more clumsy.
I'm curious about what the M7's v5 will look like, but I can certainly wait.
I really like Sense 3.6...at least everything worked on it **cough cough MHL cough cough**.
The ONLY drawback to Sense 3.6 IMHO...lack of landscape features in Sense (ala Sense 4.x)
Very Satisfied with 3.6 Rom

Sense 5 opinions

How do you guys like it? I'm still tempted to go bareback and toss sense out. I gave it a shot, awesome job guys, but don't like how it wants to stuff facebook in my face all the time. If there is a way to reorganize the main page I haven't seen it. Ended up nandroiding back to meanbean 3.09 for now. Runs slick as glass. If I download and install the bareback superlte does that include the camera drivers so there is no loss in quality/functionality?
Also what is svn lol. I just downloaded the sense 5 port directly to my phone and flashed it, s-off, but I keep reading Bout svn. Is that update software? With meanbean I just used the ota updater.
Sorry kinda new

I absolutely love it.
I don't use Facebook either, so I froze it using app quarantine from the play store and it doesn't pop up anywhere anymore.
Svn is a way to get the latest updates without having to download the whole file. It downloads only the parts that have been updated reducing download time.
You also get downloads in advance.
Switching main screen is in the pinch on home screen widgets layout. You hold the screen you want selected in that window and drag it to main.
I love sense 5. Smoothest ROM I've ever had, especially with the arc reactor kernel.
I currently also have a 7582 quadrant score because of the ROM.
Turtlesvn is a svn client (I think that's its name) from there follow the thread listed about svn to get it set up.
I will never go back to sense 4.5 or aosp, they are farrrrr behind sense 5 and I know when you get it figured out you will agree.
Have fun!

Also for the camera. Freeze it an app quarantine. Use extrims camera from themes and apps. Gives you sense 4.5 camera back until camera is fully functional.
Also. I haven't tested this as I'm still playing with sense 5 it should work tho

svn is a version control system that developers use to check in their code. It allows other devs to pull the changes down to their machines to make sure they're working with the latest files. The sense 5 repository is public, so anyone can pull down the files needed to flash the rom, but it's still intended more for the developers.

I love Sense 5. Personally, I think it's the best thing to happen to Sense. It feels like Cyanogenmod and HTC had a baby. It's zippy, it's smart, it's gorgeous to look at, and it's simple (For some people, too simple lol http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-sense-5-app-drawer-making-simple-complicated )
Link feed is pretty neat I have to say. I can't wait for a working gallery so I can see in person how the zoe moments work. And I can't wait to see how the devs theme it.

I think it's the best version of sense yet. I hate sense and only used it when I needed to do something that wasn't working in AOSP, AOKP, etc. Sense 5 is actually very handy and flexible. The development of the port seems to be coming along very nicely and my hat's of to all of them!
Also, igotlostintampa has done a kicka$$ job of putting together a great FAQ that has helped me greatly in getting this to be a DD.

Gallery is working.
HTC Zoe is a Camera feature.
I definitely like it. My only complaint is I can't set blink feed as a "middle" panel for a home screen with pages to the left and right of it.

Sense 5 is the first OEM skin I've ever used that I feel is as cohesive and attractive as stock Android. It's better than Touchwiz, better than not-Blur, better than Optimus UI, and most importantly, WAY better than any prior version of Sense. I think I've finally found an AOSP replacement. I was actually planning to buy an Optimus G on eBay and sell this phone, but Sense 5 has convinced me to stick with the Evo. Using Arc Reactor kernel 0.41 (1.7) along with Sense 5, this phone is pretty close to the G performance-wise despite only having 2 CPU cores.

I like it but Im still waiting for a desensed version.
I mostly use nova or chameleon laubcher so I just like it for the pretty menus and functionality lol

Then why not just install Nova and set it as default launcher?

I initially said I liked Sense 5, but have since changed my mind. I don't like the blink feed being forced on me. I can't remove it nor can I change what page it is. I feel as if HTC just watered Sense down. It is very light. Not so much a UI anymore, buy more of a skin or theme similar to Touchwiz. I know this move will be praised by some, but if you're a fan of Sense, you might be disappointed as I am. I like the Sense widgets. Now they are either watered down to look more AOSP or simply gone. No HTC bookmarks, no HTC Music. Calendar looks weak. I keep flashing the newest daily in an attempt to like it (as this is the future) but I keep coming back to my nandroid. I give the Devs all the respect in the world and this rant is in no way a reflection of my thoughts to their hard work to bring the port to us. I'm grateful to have the ability to try it.

I completely agree about the widgets. They look like crap. Blinkfeed you can edit to exclude a bunch of junk. Back on the widgets, gonna buy android pro widgets, I need the agenda view on the calendar widget

OK. Back to AOKP for me. Tried it for about 2hrs to check it out, and the devs have done an amazing job, but sense is still painful compared to AOKP to me. HTC did do better with multitasking, a lot (unless it was the wicked xda devs that fixed that). Still, sense is too blocky and in my face for me to use.
That said, there were a few cool new features, like if you have a contact that is Google and Facebook , sense gives you option to pick which icon pic. Cool, but doesn't stand a chance against AOKP/Rootbox/slim bean/CM.
Wish I knew what all the sense users see. Hell, there's not even an email widget (which 4.1.2+ has now).

I want to move AOSP full time but I can never get mms, mms over WiFi and gps to work as well as sense can.
I love the theme chooser and wish I knew had to port some of those themes over to sense. Much more involved than doing an image replacement in winrar.
