[Q] Any chance of us getting Sense 5? - Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE

Are we going to get sense 5? The incredible has a krait, after all, and all other S4 phones seem to be getting it.

We havent got a sense 4+ yet when HTC is supposed to deliver us that... Sense 5 I think could be a possibility, but I don't think so.... Unless a dev builds it from scratch

a similar phone to the inc4g would really need to get sense5 to port it (and of course we need jellybean of our own first)
and since sense5 no longer uses m10 files (which is what is typically resized on roms now to fit different resolutions) not sure on the sizing issues
and theres no "building from scratch" its taking an existing rom and hacking it up to work on this device

that would fall under similar phone
whether or not i bother with it will probably depend how large the inc4g community is at that point (guessing i wont be the one attempting it though)

Well ill try when we get jelly bean and its kernel sources, if you viper team want to use it as base you can do if that release happens of course

Why do you keep saying this? Go to Settings > About and look at the version under Sense.
EDIT: OK, HTC has incredibly stupid version names.

No, he's right. Sense 4+ is the actual version name above 4.1. We've only gotten 4.1 so far. NBD anyway, Cyanogenmod is much better than any Sense ROM.

---

I believe the misunderstanding is that Sense 4+ is a different version other than what we have but Sense 4.x is actually what we have. If I'm wrong please correct me.
It's not a glitch this isn't Wreck it Ralph

mdmower sense goes from 2.1 to 5.0, respestive order is
2.1 2.5(2.1 on gingerbread) 3.0 3.5(GB) 4.0 4.1(ICS) 4+(jelly bean) 5.0(only HTC one for now) and I still think 4+ will eventually be rolled out but sense 5 will be a hard port since resizing is gonna be harder

Well easyish assuming we have jellybean by then
And would have to be hacked up for LTE (not a huge deal but still a hurdle)

Unfortunately, being on Verizon, we are S.O.L. I doubt we'll see 4+ or Sense 5. I doubt we will even see JellyBean before most of us are eligible for upgrades. So for those like me who aren't in to flashing customer ROMS, we probably will not see it.

well, sure it might take some time before a possible JB update from verizon arrives for us. but personally I'd be fine if that's just 4.1.2 (latest 4.1.x JB that brings us "project butter" ) ...and comes with Sense4+. Sense4.1 already slimmed down the visual effects quite a bit and from my piont of view, Sense5 is slimmed down too much, over-simplified and removes that neat lock-ring that HTC Sense is so much well known for *haha* ... i'd really hate to loose it!
