Hi there, recently my dad bought a Samsung Galaxy10.1 tablet and wants me to root it. We are both owners of HTC phones (HTC Wildfire S & HTC Rezound) and have grown to like the Sense UI. he has requested that along with the root I install Sense but I dont think this is possible as Sense was not developed for a tablet.
My question is this: Is it possible to put a Sense 3.0/3.5 UI on a Samsung Galaxy10.1? If so, how is it done?
Thanks ahead of time for all responses.
I don't think that's possible yet. If it were possible it'd most likely come in the form of a rom

Yeah that was kinda my thought. Does anyone no if there has been a case where Sense was put on a non-HTC device, though?
nope. not happening bro.
Anyway isn't sense in a way copyright??

Sense is:
1) Extremely difficult to port
2) Developers have little desire to do it anyway since it's incredibly bloated compared to Touchwizz (which isn't so hot either, but it sucks less than Sense) - Although actually, Touchwizz was a slight improvement on HC 3.1 - but it's a step backwards on ICS. CM9 is slick... Even with the intermittent battery life regressions I'm still running it.

As far as I know the only way to get the whole SenseUI is to get the GoLauncherEX theme Then again it's just skin replacement.

Well I've made a Sense theme for CM7, so as soon as the Galaxy S2 gets CM7, which I'm sure will happen fast, you can use the theme on it... far easier than porting a sense rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11660869
edit: then again, you still won't have sense app enhancements and stuff, but something is better than nothing right?
why does everyone want this.. the phne is not even out yet.. if you really want sense go buy a htc phone ad quit whinning.
thanks for the theme,
and yeah i do have a htc phone but this samsung galaxy s 2 has the best specs than any htc phone so this phone combined with htc sense will be a beast!
Does any one think this can happen?

Sense is overrated.
Yes you should be able to use HTCs Sence UI because Exynos is using NEON whereas Tegra2 doesnt.
Depends which 1 phones 4 u supplies because there are to versions

Sense is nearly as bad as TouchWiz. AOSP should be (and will be) the goal.

Meh, I was never too fond of Sense. Using my friend's Inspire for a few minutes though, I found that it was nicer than all of the other stock launchers.
I didn't like not being able to edit the total number of screens though.
I too, am interested in this. It gives people options so why not port Sense over? I want to see whether they can port all those cool features over like flipping their phone over to silence a call or ringing louder in a bag.
What about sense 3.0 the sgs2 with the new sense will be amazing

No please not the disney version of sense.
Don't get me wrong, but those colors on the sensation....brrrr..... welcome to disney.
I would really love to see a Sense port but it will be very hard to port it... the only successful ports are for devices with identical specs - example Sense from Desire on Nexus One...
There was a port for the Galaxy S but it had too much things that don't work and were very hard to solve (as Sense and drivers are not open source)...
Loved sense on windows mobile especially combined with the white GTX theme on my hd2,
but can't say I'm a big fan of it on android. Weird, I know, or maybe not so weird,
since I like a minimal clean look better, not screens cluttered with widgets.
Am tied in between in getting a sensation or sgs2 hardware wise galaxy s 2 wins but HTC sense is far better than touch wiz that's why we need a port

I'd like to see a sense port. However only for the sake of having a bigger variety of roms to flash.
I found that when I had my Inspire that Sense was way to bloated for me. I gave it a fair shot but for now I prefer TW over Sense. But AOSP > Any carrier software.
I would just stick with TouchWiz or go for AOSP if possible. Sense looks cool and all, but a port is as easy as it seems. More so, theming will be the solution for time being.

Actually this is false http://www.xda-developers.com/android/nexus-s-gets-a-desire-s-port-and-sense/
There's any way to remove the answer screen on sense 3.0? I prefer the standard one of froyo or gingerbread. Tnx--
any idea of how I can do that?
You can't without root.
I've a rooted sense 3.0 ROM on my DHD
No one knows how to?

I was wondering if there was any talk about a Honeycomb Sense port for the GT10.1? Personally i dont care for the touchwiz but am curious for the sense skin. With a overclocked kernel and sense ui, it would be the mac daddy!

What the heck, I posted this same question a few days ago in another thread lol
HTC Jetstream has Honeycomb that could work on our Tab's but apparently a reply in my thread said that Sense is tied to the processor it comes on for the Jetstream and Flyer, somehow its using features from the chip that aren't on a Tegra 2 that prevent it from being ported... well, easily anyway...
Sense UX is what the UI is called on Honeycomb, I'm hoping developers port it over, I have yet to root my Tab, but if we can get Sense UX on it, hecks yeah, I'm already getting bored of the TOO customized look of Touch Wiz UX, I miss stock honeycomb's look, but Sense UX looks even better, not to mention, has skin support
Sup everybody. I just did the HTC software update and now I have honeycomb 3.2. I hate the new interface and don't understand why they made such a change to it or don't give you the option to go back to the old interface.
My question is why the hell did they downgrade the sense from a 3.0 to a 1.1 on the honeycomb update? That makes no sense (pardon the pun). Anybody know why this is and is there a way to go back to gingerbread without rooting?
As far as I know Sense 3.0 was for phones running Gingerbread. Sense 1.1 was for tablets running HC. Until the unification of ICS, I guess the Sense UI had 2 development paths, phones & tablets.
Just a guess

I felt the same way. Rooted and downgraded back GB, prior to that I had been updated on HC for a few months. After switching back, I realized that the overall functionality of HC was much better. Using cypher custom Rom on stock kernel, plenty of free memory, quick, give it a try.
Other then that, start learning to cook up your own custom Rom, de sense it how you like. I say this cuz as you may have noticed the View's development is quite starved. We need more contributions.

Hi,
I'm a noob here and I have just bought a HTC Desire X, however I really dislike Sense UI, is there any way to get rid of it.
Or, are there any barebones Android ICS, or Jelly Bean ROMs or similar that will work on my phone?
Thanks! Don't understand a lot of the posts in this forum so sorry if there is one but I just haven't understood that it exists!
Thanks.
Hi and welcome FabM!
Unfortunately, for the time being there is no unofficial ROM available,
We hope that as the Desire X community grows bigger, more devs will come and more ROMs will be released.
Concerning the Sense UI, you could use a third party launcher if you want to stop using it.
The most common ones are Go, ADW, Nova and Apex.
You can download them from Play Store, if you want to test them.
