They said HTC Sense will be free for every G2 user. and the update will be released before 30 October.
And another news is for other counties' G2 user, HTC Sense will be released at November 2009, different countries have different time.
original words from HTC Website:
"HTC Magic users can soon experience HTC Sense on their Magic when a free upgrade is made available in November 2009. With the upgrade to HTC Sense, users will enjoy a more holistic mobile experience made available by HTC. Be sure to sign up as a HTC e-Club member to stay informed of the availability of the upgrade and be the one of the first to experience the new Sense."
In a word, HTC Sense is coming!!!

Sweet Action!

we already know that for other countries it is coming out in november. but for taiwan they get it early? before october 30? that is better news.

So within the next 9 days interesting.

There are no plans for an official 32B Sense version, if thats what you mean.

it will be a complete rom with sense ui? or just the ui?
i'm asking because i have a hero rom for the moment and i don't know if i can find an original one (vodafone romania)

is that a donut kernel or cupcake?

ill get a 32b version going if youd like .. itll take some VERY light mods
prolly just a kernel and some apk optimizing

Thats awesome. Makes me glad to me a 32A user.

Hmmm, I hope it's running donut.

Man that would be so sweet if you could make that happend !!

I think it could be donut, as it would not be a smart move to release sense in cupkake...

It wouldn't be big surprise for me if HTC release Cupcake version. On the other side, as far as I know, HTC Tattoo has already Sense on Donut, so it's nothing new for them. Personally, I'm waiting for Android 1.6 Donut with HTC Sense for HTC Magic 32A, doesn't meter whose release (original or moded). So new, original rom based on Cupcake with Sense UI is nothing special for me (I have already MyHero and I'm happy with it).

i think its 1.5 guys

it's a very very good news..32B will have releases of this rom, and assurely with wifi,bluetooth, and others many things working great
32B, don't be sad !!

Yeah, 32B users will also get a fully functional Rom just might run a bit slower.

I'm lost. Help with getting back to grips with the G1.

A while back I rooted my G1 and currently I'm running
Firmware: 1.6
Kernel: 2.6.29.6-cm42
Mod Version: CyanogenMod-4.1.9999
Build number: DRC83
O.K. I know I might be abit behind with the times but can anyone in the community give me some advice on what I need to update to, say, something like Éclair.
The reason is 1.6 is getting sluggish so I might as well update it to something that is new and fast(ish).
I'll be watching this thread and if you need any questions answered I'll try to get them sorted as quickly as I can.
Thanks
Oh and on a side note I'll be given the choice of the Desire, Droid and X10 for my upgrade in a few weeks, which would you guys suggest?
CM 5.0.7
Droid
Desire or the X10
SuperE
and Desire
I'd say 5.0.7 not the original maybe one of the mods.. SpeedTeam or Magic Elixir..
Make sure to update to 1.7 recovery..
and.... if I'd have to give you an honest answer... neither? but if I had to have a choice I'd get a Desire

I'm curious, why would you suggest not going original CM5? I'm using it and i think its pretty much perfect...
Why not try some ROMs out yourself and see?
Personally I think the 32B hardware (G1/Magic) is not powerful enough to deliver a nice experience with Eclair, even with Cyanogen's excellent CM5 release which is a better 2.1 than I imagine even HTC could come out with.
I stick to Dwang which is pretty much Donut AOSP with a fast kernel and framework. Some people disagree and are loving Eclair. Some people like SuperD and CM4 which are about as advanced as Donut can get.
The X10 has got really poor reviews, and doesn't even come with Android 2.0 or 2.1. The Droid is nice and all but the 1GHz in the Desire is difficult to pass up. Out of your options, I'd get a Desire, though a Nexus One would be even better.
Droid is OC'able to some high values... id take it, but im always gonna stick with a device with a keyboard as my main MOD/DEV device..... hate them soft keys.... maybe in the future i'll grab a solid touch device along side my HK phone
Droid2
nexus enterprise(if it even comes out)
htc vision
n1
desire
legend
hd2
tmo mytouch 3g slide
cliq xt
backflip

mt3g
These are the order that google said will get 2.3(gingerbread) in order of org price at the time of purchase, if you have any concerns please contact the AOSP team @ [email protected] or chat with a rep on gtalk(contact steve jobs w/ [email protected]

Lol WTF? The HD2, Dream, Rogers Dream, and MT3G, cliq xt, backflip getting gingerbread? Lol thanks for spamming up this thread. Really thats just about the stupidest thing I have read.
OT: Get CM5, then when the time comes get a desire. You can easily root the desire to run nexus firmware so you can get rid of that yucky sense crap (IMO).
personally if you wanna try eclair, get with STEclair, and when it comes time, go with the desire... like he said, its hard to pass up a snapdragon processor

That's good news. I'm in dilemma, choosing in between this and SGS2. But I love sense
Sent from my Desire HD
Didn't you say samsung india would release the SGS2 on April 17th? Did that happen?
As per my source the SGS2 is getting launched on May 13th. Stuck between a very tough decision. To go in for the SGS2 or wait for the Sensation. Heart says wait for Sensation, but have been surviving without a cell phone for almost a week now. My HD2 gave up the ghost.

Yes,but please try to read the full article..Source was Samsung Mobile India{the dumbest Samsung Service anywhere in India}.
They have clearly mentioned in their facebook/twitter page regarding April launch in India{hence the article},blame it to HTC Sensation 1.2 Ghz raw power which forced Sammy to brush up SGS 2 to 1.2Ghz{hence the delay}.But it has launched in April{not in India though}
Can't we get HTC Sensation before JUNE ? ? ?
Or it's still geting launched at it's previous date ? ? ?
Plz tell if it's may be launching in INDIA bit sooner . . . .
I think 22nd june it is!!!
Friends pre order started,availability is around 3rd or 4th week of this month
Its here now... 30.2K

Nice!!! i can't wait
WOW this getting crazy with all the leaks.
I think it's funny they called the phone "shooter". I reminds me of Shooter McGavin from Happy Gilmore lmao.
now that an official leak test is out for it, it cant be too far away!
for one, i already got a few cases for it.
WOW my phone is going to burn up from all this flashing
What about this version is better than the Kingdom port already half done? Just curious, same Sense and 2.3.3. Seems like it would be harder to port with the 3D having 1GB, dual core proc and dual cams. Just a question I had to ask.
HOORAY!
I had a feeling we'd see this, seeing as Kingdom registered as the Hero 4G when I activated the hotsopt!
Thanks V! Lookin' forward to this one! Looks like Kingdom was good practice for the REAL goods huh?
=IP IHI II IL=
Hey Virus....if this is an Evo3d rom leak, then what phone is the HTC Kingdom rom leak based on? Htc Sensation?? Luv your work btw.....will likely try the VirusROM Kingdom REVOlution B1.1 soon. Looks like a lot of the bugs have been worked out.
There's a new radio dated from 5/13. Would like to test out the radio to see how that works.
Good luck Virus on getting this ported over. Hopefully there aren't too many issues with it.

This could be better than the Kingdom since this ROM is for Evo3D. In other words and if we're lucky Virus might get 4G working with this port.

Been pestering him for it as I saw it on his Sensation a few weeks ago and it was fantastic.
I have put in a link for the file any devs can help themselves, just please tell me how to install it!!!

wow! this would be amazing!
Pretty sure this is just for the Flyer
I'm with EddyOS on this 1. The fact the dzdata is for 4, 16 and 32Gb hardware gives it away. how ever I'm sure if you dropped in a 1Gb version you could get this to work but as i don't have a spare sensation lying around I'm not willing to try it just yet.
This sounds very interesting.
I hope a few of the very experienced DEVS around here look into it and tweak it up a bit.
i would like to see how this look my self

Eddy is that on the Sensation? ^^
It all looks rather good ^_^ Pretty sure though its for the Flyer only atm as others have mentioned. I can't decide which cheap tablet to get for the parents as of yet... Shall wait though as Kal-El is out soon...
this would be absolutely amazing if it works straight off on the Sensation......
Those pix are for Flyer waiting to see confirmation regarding the sensation
I know they are, as it's the Flyer ROM - I posted the pics!. This will not work on the Sensation, I can pretty much guarantee it
HC is a tablet OS, Sense in this ROM is 'Sense for Tablets' - it's not going to work and, if it does, it'll be ****

True it wouldn't work straight off however it has a much better chance of being a good port than other honeycomb ROMs as the HTC Flyer is a HTC device and therefore the libs from the Sensation may be more compatible. Also and possibly more importantly the HTC Flyer uses a Qualcomm CPU vs the Tegra in other tablets which may aide compatibility further.
It would be nice to see what some experienced chefs could come up with for the Sensation from this Honeycomb ROM as it's possibly the most compatible Honeycomb ROM yet apart from the HTC Jetstream which due to it's dual core Qualcomm CPU and 8mp camera might be more compatible still? Although it would take an experienced chef to find out!
I've made into a ROM with the kitchen into a flashable zip buy I'm sure things would need to resized. Just flashed the framework and sys UI to my current ROM from here (just drawable hdpi folders)
I know its a tablet ROM but I'm sure this would be able to port to sensation. What would be needed?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Ok guys, porting Honeycomb, no matter if its HTC or whatever, is not easy. Most, if not all, of our current libs are probably unusable on HC. And, if I were doing the port, I'd choose the Jetstream/Puccini ROM because THAT tablet has the same chipset as the Sensation. In my experience porting roms to HD2, its much easier when the chipset is the same one. And the Flyer is single core, plus its another resolution, so porting it will be totally hard and imo, useless, because it will be full of bugs, that won't probably ever be solved because there is no Source code for HC. So, just wait patiently for Ice Cream Sandwich. hope you understood what I meant
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA App
Does honeycomb even have the capabilities to make a call? They sell them were I work, I'm not a fan but having the option to have it on a sensation would be nice, we also sell the HP for 80 quid. Getting honeycomb on that would be a great acheivment, as an 80 quid dual core tablet running honeycomb is right up there with the bargain of the century.
I've moved this and edited the title. This is not a ROM thread, is not Dev work, and does NOT work on the sensation, so please don't try anything with the files unless you know what you are doing.
Any chance of a flyer rom for the sensation? Would look good in my opinion

HTC say: We're reviewing Ice Cream Sandwich and determining our plans

HTC: We are excited about the latest update for Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, and are currently reviewing its features and functionality to determine our upgrade plans. Our goal for Android updates is to give every customer an improved user experience, which means balancing each phone's unique hardware, HTC Sense experience and the Android kernel. While our goal is to upgrade as many of our recent devices as possible, we are committed to maintaining every phone's performance and usability first. Please stay tuned for more updates on specific device upgrade plans.

How can we have a AOSP when Google has not even announced if the are going to release the Source code for ICS yet. I mean AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project.
I for one really hope that Google does release the Source and does not treat ICS in the same manner they did Honeycomb. But I think they just did not want Honeycomb ported to phones is why they did not make it open Source. Maybe now that ICS has the features of Honeycomb in it Google will not hold back and not release the Source.
ALL Android OS are open source, they are ''obliged'' to release the sources in the 3 months after releasing it on any device.
HTC took the freedom to release their Desire source to the last week so N1 devs couldnt adapt it too soon, but in general as we saw with GB AOSP Google release the sources pretty quickly...specially when a new iphone is endangering sales

Yeah that is the exact the point I was trying to make. I am also fairly sure that Google will release the source code for ICS as it is meant for phones and tablets where as Honeycomb was just meant for tablets. But to further my point from my earlier post. Honeycomb source was never released and even the great king the HTC HD2 Leo only got on Honeycomb ROM and it still has a ton of bugs and is not a daily driver ROM. In fact I am not sure if the developer is even still working on the ROm as I have not went to the thread in a good while now. So you see a ROM dump from another device that is running the OS version you want from another device will work to make a port. But ports are mostly buggy at best when first released and also require loads of work by devs. But a AOSP ROM usually works way better and from what I know takes less work from devs to bring to a device.
Can't wait to see what the devs is gonna cook up with ics =)
i think htc should push ICS to sensation and others but without Sense then if htc finish the work in htc Sense 4.0 push new update to sensation and others
