Sense 5 opinions - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

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

Thanks for the peptalk I need it! Ill wait a few weeks until things get ironed out, maybe try will release sense 5 on their own LOL.

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.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app

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 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.

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.

[Q] questions about sense bloat

I've read a number of general complaints about sense being bloated and unremovable but would like to understand what device resources are unavoidably consumed by it.
If it's just storage space I'm not too concered about that. But taking up RAM with programs/features I don't want is another matter, as is any wasted CPU-cycles it might spend automatically running programs in the background, or intercepting UI events.
I ask this without knowing specifically what in sense is believed to be bloated. Is there a way to see a list of things it runs or could run, and to disable each feature I don't want? Again, I don't mind if the unwanted programs remain in storage, as long as they are never run and thus don't consume RAM/CPU.
When I watch videos of the G2X, it's mind-boggling how fast every aspect of the UI is. What is sense doing that keeps the evo 3d / sensation from achieving the same level of snappiness? I have a hard time believing excessive RAM-usage or CPU even is playing any role in simply scrolling through the tray of apps. So what is it that affects things like simple scrolling speed there?
I'm guessing android has some kind of event handling, where every event is delivered to a list of programs that each decide if they want to do anything with the event or not, and maybe sense has programs registered all over the place to receive all kinds of events. This is wild speculation on my part as I'm not that familiar with how things really work, but when scrolling through apps in the app tray is slow, something besides simple resource consumption must be going on.
Anyway my general questions are: what makes it slow, and can 'it' be removed, whatever 'it' is.
I don't know where u got the idea that the evo 3d us slow..must of been in a gs2 forum..I happen to enjoy sense..and once you root you can
remove any bs..I have an evo 4g and have no lag whatsoever..don't listen to the evo 3d haters..everyone takes shots at the best

You do know the bluetooth stack in sense doesn't let you use things like wiimote, or bluetooth mouse? Those are some of the things I was referring to. Sense is more than a launcher and skin. It is a UI framework that does affect some core Android functions.
EDIT: BTW I never meant to start a war of Sense vs ASOP, I was just pointing out the misinformation that Sense is a skin, when it's more than skin deep.

Me too, always thought CM was over rated, I mean no disrespect, but Sense UI is hands down the best for Android.
Vanilla / stock Android feels like its still on 1.5 release. The dialer and contacts and e-mail all feel lacking something.

+1 totally agree, once I got into really core customization of my EVO, I saw what Sense was lacking. Don't get me wrong Sense is nice for eye candy, but CM is easier to work with for deeper customization. Once again it all comes down to personal preference. Although I'm looking forward to playing with the new Sense 3.0 lockscreen.

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

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)

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.

Sinister, you've been really kicking a$$ around here lately, thank you. I'm super glad you got this device.
I love AOKP. The release here doesn't get much attention. My vote/opinion is for another build of AOKP with some of the 4.2 stuff (KB,Cam) built in, it basically needs to be rebased to work with ThickLizards komodo kernels and merged with AOKP for their latest features. Tmartins last release was a LONG time ago, and he really doesn't like AOSP, just doin it to learn and for a challenge.
tl/dr: AOKP update. :beer::thumbup:

I've been out of the game for a while, so still catching up on the new stuff, but I'd love to see a Sense ROM with the customization options of that Pokemon ROM, and I can't wait to see a JB sense ROM and 4.2 AOKP-esque build (with customization options like AOKP). I just really like hiding the clock and battery in the status bar.
ill see about AOKP and for meizu os not sure if I can get it working. if they have a device hat is hxdpi then maybe. as for sense Imessaging. interesting
I'd love to see a JB ROM with Sense 4+ perhaps ported from the One X or the new Droid DNA, I hear they use the same SoC as our device! (At least some variations of the One X)

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 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?

Maybe when HTC releases a device with 4.2 well get a port

No HTC phone has android 4.2 officially AFAIK.
HTC will probably come out with a 4.2 build in the coming months.

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.

I must say, I actually chose to buy the Evo for $99 instead of the S3 for $50 on Black Friday because I like Sense THAT much. The look and feel of it truly suits my personality. I tried just about every launcher and every rom, and I am still on a Sense rom again. Imagine that...

I buy HTC phones for the build quality and not their software.

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 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.
