Chances of Seeing Sense UI on Raphael???

I would if anyone is considering trying to port this over since it´s already HTC´s? The general news is ambiguous about the mater... Anyone?

I think we'll only going to see it when the first WM phone will be released with it...
Fortunately, by HTC's CEO own words "(... HTC´s Sense UI ...) debuting on the HTC Hero and available on all new HTC devices moving forward (...)”

It looks just like TF3D. Why spend the time to get it of TF3D works and was made for our phones?

I was under the impression that Sense UI was part of the upcoming Hero device which is multi-touch and running Android.
Assuming I am correct, that would indicate to me that it will most likely not be possible to port it.
Cheers,

Although this is true, pbmestre is also true in saying that the CEO said that they will bring the sense UI to winmo devices. So i think it's going to be a long time before we see it on a raphael, since the android version will be practically impossible to port to a winmo phone. We'll just have to wait until it comes out on one of HTC's future winmo devices, and then port it.

Probably, you're correct...
I think that a WM UI version will be available, and will be a step forward from TF3D2... Probably TP2 will have it, within WM6.5 Upgrade...
Still, it will demand a lot of work to port it... As it is a lot more complex (!?)...
But, we can still dream...

TF3D "works" on our phones?? Just barely, if that's what you want to call what it does on our phones.....
I read that Sense is supposed to be the replacement for TF3D (thank god I really hate buggy slow TF3D). That being the case, it will only be a matter of time before we will see it on our WM devices. The sooner the better!

Not even that... which is why I dont even use it. All it is, is a 'pretty' memory hog.

HTC Sense UI = Samsung Widget + TF3D

LOL ... I love the pretty slide'n'flo feel of TouchFLO.
I've always found the Windows Mobile GUI lacking in appeal - IMHO, 6.5 is a step in the right direction.
... but I still love the pretty slide'n'flo feel of TouchFLO.

Gotta agree with you there mate, touch flo is good for touch screen though the "sliding Panels" Chome works awesome on a smartphone. Still got a 6.1 build on my excalibur that I love

I used ultimate launch till I found SPB MobileShell 3.0. I cannot stand the slide n flo it was always insulting to me how they could give us such a poorly performing UI. I agree Windows Mobile UI by itself sucks as well but Tflo is just so inefficient I personally couldn't take it.

sense is coming to wm
I just read an article over on wmpoweruser.com that says it's in the works.

Yes SPB MS 3 has taken over my phone as well, it's the first piece of software that I've been ALMOST completely happy with in a long time. Plus any software that could get you to quit talking about UL all the time is alright with me I will still be interested to see what HTC can do with the new UI.

Sense UI
So any good news with a HTC sense UI for raphael phone?

Official HTC Sense release for the Magic

I'm sure this is in the wrong place, but it does have a lot to do with the Hero ROM porting that's goign on here. HTC Brazil's website is showing off the Magic with Sense. Anyone come across this built yet? I'm sure it will work a lot better than Hero ROM ports since it's official from HTC! http://htcsource.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=732&Itemid=51

Great news!!! Thanks for that Nick.... really looking forward to the official release

Damn i was hoping the brazillian magic phone had our low ram. Would this really change anything?

salivating... hope it can be made into a suitable rom for 32a soon

We are just waiting for a Brazilian person to extract it and we can have it too (I think so).. I was reading it and there's good and bad news!!!
Good:
Is really the 1st HTC Sense Ui officially on a Magic!
Bad:
All stores from the Brazilian market listed on the HTC website from the link there, hasn't the equipment available and only the TIM network are promoting the Android phone and asking for filling a form for a pre-release/information (I didn't feel it) about an Android phone (I think it can be the Magic).

soooo.. any brazilians got it !! if not HURRY THE F UP!

I doubt it~! I didn't see for sale it yet on any of the authorized HCT Brazilian shop!! We will have to wait, maybe the release date is the same that our so WANTED update will be released!

that sucks.. so does anyone have a magic with a hero rom that is fast.. and you are satisified with it?

I will not be satisfied till our ui is up to speed with the ones in iphone..

I can get nooo..
satisfaction...

I'm not sure any Andrid UI will ever be as fast as the iPhone. The iPhone UI is only an icon list and that's pretty much it. We'll need a Snapgragon powered Android phone from HTC to acheive a no-lag Sense experience.

i am excited about this. having a native sense ui made specifically for the magic is good news and hopefully will improve performance since we dont have to port from the hero to the g1 to the magic. once it's released we just need one of the devs to root it for us haha then we can install like a normal rom, i think, right? i dont want to lose root to install this.

HTC will release the Magic in Brazil only in the 2nd half of October. And IIRC TIM Brasil will launch BOTH the Magic and the Samsung Galaxy.

Obrigado Cesar
Since HTC controls this.. it sounds like it will be as well the time as well that we will have our so DESIRED HTC Sense UI updates! But, anyway we'll see..
Hope that I'm wrong in the good way (that they release first the update, since is already made)! One month to go..

midway october is still 3 weeks away , hope someone get a piece before hand and can make a dump and put it up for people to breakdown.

can't wait ! Singapore's one is releasing on Nov, one month later of wait

nativ or not. the problem is the same...
the htc magic in brasil is using 288 mb of ram.
its good for the 32a users but 32b has the same problem as now

even tho it has 288 mb ram , it will still be a better port of Sense as compared to the current one which is of a whole different model , so this would have lesser bugs and im sure with some swap in place it would be pretty snappy for those who have the 32B as well

The main benefit I see from this is that the LED and Bluetooth issues should finally be resolved.

probably part of LED fix is most likely a fully functioning trackball blink/notification

HTC.com: We are working on something for YOU

What might it be?

Hmmmm... let's start with the obvious... new website?

defaced maybe?
2 hours ago the site just show black background

I just noticed this too. Very intresting. They have links for twitter youtube and myspace up. wonder what will be when they come back online. 3am for me. im soo tired. must sleep and see surprise tomorrow. mebe a release for the diamond 2 finally.
Coencidentaly, before I wandered over to htc.com I had a message on my phone from microsoft to collect and send information and that there are updates for my windows phone and i shoukd connect it to the computer which im about to do. Very intresting. we shall see when i awake.
Even more intresting is that this came up on a 6.5.1 ROM for my TD2.

That would be the announcement of AT&T 3G version.
YOU'VE HEARD IT HERE FIRST, FOLKS!!!

Well it's up again, so what's the big news or improvement?

I think its just the flash advertisment... Each you corresponds to one phone Thats all i can see at least.
4 YOUs link to Hero... 3 to the Imagio and 2 to the Tilt 2...

Release SDK! <3 as if!

I do not see any changes on WWW and RUS Sites..
But Russian unofficial HTC site says that they can't find the lastest HTC Hero and HTC Diamond rom..
And small changes will be in late October.
but it is only rumors ...

Surprise?

The biggest surpriese for us from htc would be definitely a official rom upgrade to wm 6.5 for devices like htc touch viva. I dont understand why microsoft and htc dont wanna provide upgrade for these devices when they are running smoothly wm 6.5.1 that is 230xx.

What crap. The only change is to the US site with flash animation that says YOU and advertises the Ugly Sprint version of the Hero. The original is better. and the Imagio for verizon and the HTC Tilt2 (TP2) from AT&T.

hey guys, new here and wanted to ask your opinions

ok so here's the thing, i have an upgrade on sprint and am deciding between the touch pro 2, the hero and the samsung moment. the only reason i really like the hero is because of sense. but if if someone here knows how to get sense on the moment i would snap it up immediately.
however the touch pro 2 looks amazing with the big screen and that awesome keyboard. not to mention i looked around on the forums last couple of days and have seen all the crazy stuff for windows mobile with cooked roms and stuff. not to mention u guys have android on WM so yeah.
i'm coming from a pre, and was part of the first homebrewers so i doubt i'll have to much trouble with modding or rooting the WM or android phones. i dealt with alot of coding with the pre and it was a bit of a pain but enlightening.
so i'm just wondering what u TP2 and Hero users have to say. and if anybody can answer about getting sense ui on the moment that would be great.
tl;dr what should i get Hero, TP2 or Moment.

My advice...
Drop the Moment...
Go with a TP2. They are working on porting Android for this and will not be long before you can see a port with Sense on the TP2 (if there isn't one already).
Hope this helps.

so any other responses? or opinions.

Go for the TP2 which as mentioned has many cool stuff & more in development. Very reliable with a nice screen!
But if U want the cool Android stuff now, then of course it's the Hero...

so about the TP2 does it run sense like the hd2 or touchflo? and where do i go to get all the cool stuff for it, anywhere specific.

Shipping HTC EVO 4G ROM released into the wild

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/
dont know if this is useful to us or not....

why is that an .exe file?

Yea, I also don't believe this is much use to us with the Desire ROM being out. Sense 2.1, is always Sense 2.1, unless Sprint made some modifications.

HTC phones on sprint(that I know of) use EXE files to install or update a rom its an app that puts the phone in bootloader mode to flash the device. looks fishy but its legit.
Both 2.1 update for the samsung moment and HTC Hero were EXE files not .img files

I could careless about sprint. I hate them

Doesn't this ROM include 720p video recording?

If they can port this over to HD2 I might have to say good bye to my N1.

why would you want this on an hd2? the evo is a better phone, just go get it instead.

The format looks similar the windows mobile updates.
If I knew the drivers would work with the HD2 I would flash it.
... yeah I've got an HD2 paper weight ... After owning a Nexus ... what was I thinking.

You took the words right out of my mouth. Thanks for using your head.

Now if anyone extracts 720p video recording and wifi access point tethering app (although the latter is probably sprint only) That'd be sweet.

Why does that say Supersonic? Isn't that a different phone?

saying the HD2 had android so you could compare apples to apples... The N1 is still better, the screen maybe smaller, but its brighter and cleaner looking with the amoled screen... everything else is the same

I have both and I will say Android on the HD2 would rival the NExus One nicely.

my tmobile rep said the name "supersonic" was dropped at one of his conference calls. I would wait for an Evo-like device to drop on a GSM sometime soon (T-mobile).

Come on guys...stop talking stupid crap. I've been hunting the forums trying to figure out if an android cook is coming for hd2, and all i keep seeing are you so-called 'experts' saying things like:
"why would you want android on hd2, buy such-and such"
"wait for the next GSM phone from Tmo"
Well, WHAT THE HELL MAN? Where's the pioneering spirit of the developers I know and love?? Where's the desire to rise to the challenge of porting to a WinMo phone??
There are many T Mobile customers out there who are being offered a good upgrade discount to get an HD2. Why would we all just abandon that and run off to get an unlocked whatever for $500??? Shut up on that please...
Second, no one's waiting for the next anything. What's the point of waiting? No matter what phone you get, it'll be obsolete in 12 months anyway...
SO SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE GET CRACKIN ON AN ANDROID ROM FOR HD2!!!!!!!! Many HD2 owners have already said we'll pay for it...someone will make some money...
And someone in here PLEASE put up a LINK to anything about HD2 android stuff...
geez, XDA is going to the dogs ...seriously though, it was never this hard to get help when the G1 came out (and spare me the obvious "G1 was made for Android" drivel)...
