Looking for a Donut Rom with Sense UI for 32A - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hi All,
Has anyone put together a Stable Donut Rom with Sense UI. I have extensively searched and have not found anything.
Thanks in advance!

HTC's only made one Donut with SenseUI for its Tattoo device and as it had a smaller display there were a lot of graphic issues porting the OS to the Magic. Eugene had made a ROM but could never fix all the problems, as far as I can remember.

thanks for the quick reply!
Is there any way of getting the updated Maps (Navigation) or Google Goggles on a Sense UI Rom?

damn im looking for one too!

Vodafone Magic 32b Users: The Fastest Ever Sense Rom is...

I´m new posting here, but I´d been searching for a while in this forum for a Sense Rom that makes me forget enomther´s 1.6 Rom (the one I revert back after getting tired of FC´s and Homescreen Loads of the latest Rom) and I had finally found the first native looking 32B SenseRom.
The curiosity is that I found it in Dream´s Dev Forum...based on one Rom from guess who: Eugene!

Good News: I´d installed this Rom with just one partition (fat32 of course)= Fastest ever Sense xperience you´ll ever enjoy+ no FC+ NO HOME LOADS.
Bad News: some typical problems with Bluetooth, Wifi, G-Sensors and Graphics errors when gaming (Speedforge and Head to Head Racing) due to RAM hack craps.

If you are tired of home loads using a Sense Rom, in my modest opinnion you should stick to Qtek´s latest work.

I would've said this was the wrong place for this but it's actually pretty helpful. I didn't notice it in the dream section. Seems that's the only place 32b magic users find most roms.
Thanks for the heads up justclimb, flashing right now just to try it out. Wifi's a bummer. I use that ALOT.
Update: Wifi seems to be working on it. It's a little sluggish though, i'm going to reflash with the proper partitions.

I´m actually testing Qtek´s latest Rom and like all others I´m tired of home loads, multiple partitions, swapiness and all that non native crap. Until someone turns this great Revolution Rom into something "magical" I´ll stick to Qtek´s deleting the Sense Apk preferences and pressing home...

well i think this is a good poll my vote is hero_over it's very stable and super fast and no lag in the homescreen you need a swap and ext but thats is no problem with the new amon recovery ;-) and the best thing is wifi g-sensor works ;-) i tryed many roms so... this runs best for me
If only ttran001's OTPA Sense UI ROM was here i would vote for that.
I've been using it for 4 weeks now and its the smoothest thing i've ever tried
have any one tried the rom by maxima
as the guys at the unlockr recommend it as the best ROM
It is the best, right after ttran001's ROM.
Maxisma's got the kernel problem with SOME! people being able to use the ROM and some people not.
ttran001 had that problem too, but he fixed it by a reverting patch to another kernel.
SO how does Trojan Final Hero stack up against the roms of ttrann001 and maxima's?
Ive got the Trojan Final Hero rom installed, almost never had the loading screen but every app i launch does take two seconds or so to actually boot up, you click, screen goes black for a few secs and i see the app. However ive not had a homescreen reload yet. I do have to use 128mb swap to prevent that tho.
Since some chefs had sadly abandoned this forum...
I´ve just added some links to their newest work.
I also wanted to add after i saw you linked eugene's old rom, that SuperMagic is one of the BEST roms i've ever tried. i liked it better than trojan rom!
It doesn't have the regular sense ui rosie but it's very solid and pretty snappy. My only problem was every now and then getting loading screens, i believe it was because i was using 32mb swap. I'm probably going to restore my nandroid backup and try that out again!
Currently trying qtek's and loving it!
It's a close call between eugene's and qtek's. very close.

Take a look at hero_over´s...it´s actually one of the smoothest out there, and better than any from eugene.

I did. Think i don't like about it is it took a great deal of time to open apps/settings/widgets. that's my gripe with most hero roms, the wait time on answering the phone, opening up a map when i need it open and flipping through multiple settings.
Hero over's nice, but supermagic just stomped it when it came to snappyness in between different apps and things of that sort.
Maybe i did something wrong in the settings, i'll probably give it a try. I've tried alot of roms, it's possible i might've made a setup mistake.
Devs had both jumped out or stopped their work on 32B SenseRoms...
One thing amazes me: Why on the Hell doesn´t HTC put a Donut or Eclair Update into their 32a Magics?
Since it all keeps the same, no one seems to relaunch the dev-party...
mlign's 3.1.1 is the best so far, gotta give the kid some serious respect. that rom is the truth

I might be wrong about hero_over´s ROM, but I first abandoned it due to battery problems, and afterwards I return to it after some positive comments and noticed that the very same problems kept going. Then I tried pulling some widgets out of my home screen, and now battery lasts for two days of normal use: Music Widget was the cause.
Arguably the fastest and balanced Sense Rom out there, Mlign´s 3.0 was my last try, nothing kept my attention.
I´ll take it for a round...
Poll battle is a fierce one on the top
PD: Updated links
what is the rom more quick ?
I have the Qteknology rom but is not quick

Qtek´s is the most reliable, the latest 2.2 version lacks swap management, wait a little for Qtek´s work to finished and you´ll had the fastest Rom in there:
Until then I keep using Herver´s, and appart from a few battery nightmares, the rom is reasonably fast, so it´s easely recomendable.
Not sure it should be some kind of competition, but if it is about giving a shout out to a dev's ROM that has really impressed then I've got to say;
Hero_over
I've had this ROM on my phone since last friday and I haven't had a FC, home restart or noticeable slow down even yet! No other Hero ROM has given me that, nor have I been able to keep any other Hero ROM on the phone for more than a couple of days. I tried multiple different Hero ROMs but day-to-day useability just wasn't there if I was being honest with myself. I gave up on Hero on the 32b and went to CM, I used his and upgraded right up to the latest 4.2.5 with Enoch as a theme. That ROM is seriously fast, yet Hero_over hasn't suffered in comparison. A friend has a Hero and we couldn't see any difference in use, can't say fairer than that.
The only thing I haven't got working is BT, but I haven't tried a headset and I haven't really investigated any soultions in the thread as I don't use BT.
I switch between different sense ui ROM. Now, I found a ROM made for G1 but also compatible with MT3G. It runs smoothly on my 32B device.
You guys might want to try it.

That´s a good ROM based on Drizzy´s...yet you should know that Vodafone 32b´s have some isues with graphics as well as some unspected reboots.
PD: I´m downloading Qtek´s latest version 2.3: Link updated.
How come ttran001's newest rom is not in this list? I think it's an awesome rom. Incredibly stable, pretty snappy, and it's just as good as Qtek's in my opinion. It should be updated.

Anyone make a Tatoo Rom

Since MT3G and G1 don't run eclair lets stick with donuts but have sense
Sorry for double post
Tattoo roms tend to have screen size issues so that's why a lot of devs stopped developing on those roms. The only close one to being completed was Eugene373 Rom which can be found @ alldroid.org>HTC development>g1/sapphire/magic>Eugene373 and you should find it there
Oh and BTW he also has a hero/eclair Rom which is WICKED FAST. Try it out

Is there an custom android 2.1 rom for 32b magic

Hi, can anyone tell me or post a link to android 2.1 rom for 32b magic?, i have looked around and can't seem to find any....if there is any?.
All magics will be getting the official 2.1 update and its coming with sense UI.....well from what i read, how true that is i don't know lol.
Thanks
Here are eugene & Tw & MANUP456!!! ROM
http://alldroid.org/viewtopic.php?f=130&t=515
Devs have stopped posting 32b roms here as they are all compatible with the HTC Dream these days. You can find at least 3 Eclair roms in the Dream section that will work on the 32b magic.
cheers, i'll take a look.
Thanks

The Magic 32b will be getting the official OTA 2.0.1 (No sense)
2.0.1 it's not the same what 2.0.
Sorry for my english.

actually the 2.0.1 update was just for the droid.
Magic 32B will get the 2.1 update in some form during summer.
Any HTC Sense device will go from 1.5 to 2.1. when that update is out.

I'd be happy with 2.1 without Sense. My experience of Sense is that it's eye candy bloat my phone doesn't need. First thing I do is go around and kill alll the huge widgets that don't tell me anything I want to know.....I can check the weather when I want to know the weather.

actually, it may be earlier. According to the myTouch fender edition press release that version (which is a 32a) will be getting the 2.1 update in spring of this year. (march-may most likely)
Even though the fender is a 32a, safe to say that the 32b version for the normal mytouch will be out at the same time. So hopefully march-may now instead of summer.
If Sense is coming to MyTouch AT ALL (officially)
32b are withgoogle phones.
so it might just get stock 2.1 android without any custom UI.
32a phones are the ones from HTC. They have more RAM to store the whole eyecandy stuff...
BUT the community will take care about it. (actually there already are 2 sense 2.1 Roms avaliable for mytouch 3g in the dream section. (called "Espresso") (!)
I had installed one yesterday.
Liked the original Hero Sense UI better. Only cool new thing is the animated browser progress bar(!)
yeah the espresso sense is ass. default sense + 2.1 will be very nice.
though with how nice 2.1 is i'm really gonna be torn between default and sense.
Id be happy with 2.1 on my magic..... Now! lol by summer i will have a better android by that time i hope..... nexus one? or maybe bravo??? or even the xpiria x10 if sony pull their finger out and sort out the laggyness.
As i started this thread feel free to share any info on new sense UI roms or eclair roms with or without sense or pretty much anything you would like to share :-D

Recommend an ROM

Hey... I'm a little confused regarding which ROM to pick for my 32A magic.
I really like the new officialli feautures (Sense and look--- Home screen, weather animations etc etc) on the HTC legend and Desire.
That's why i wan't to pick a rom which look like the "feel" of Legend / desire.
But what roms is like that?
What's important is:
- Stable
- Fast
What can you recommend? Unfortunately there are very little screens of the different version / comparisons... Thats why i'm asking here
Recommend: Read this before starting a thread, Most Question Asked are Answered
Q- Which ROM is best for me/ Which ROM is the best for 32A/B?
A- Take some time on the forums, look at the ROMs available for your device and individually assess what works for you by reading the various issues affecting them and make a decision. If that still doesn't work out for you, hey, that's what makes XDA great, try a different one and so on, till you find one that YOU'RE happy with. It's very subjective since what my needs are could be totally different from what yours are.
Yes but instead of testing all the roms... Then i know that many doesn't meet my requirements..
"I really like the new officially feautures (Sense and look--- Home screen, weather animations etc etc) on the HTC legend and Desire." Therefore i will like a rom based on that..
And without to many screens on the site :/ it could be very easy for someone just to recommend me a couple based on that..
You can start your search here, it even includes some ratings for stability/speed etc. Just make sure it's the correct type (32A/32B) and that your radio version is correct for that rom.
hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668090
(replace "hxxp" with "http")
I'd recommend Senpei's Legend rom. It's 2.1 with all the Sense UI goodness without too many crazy mods to unbalance it. It's for 32A w/ 6.35 radio.
For SenseUI on 32A magic, I suggest CursorSense. It's cupcake, but everything works, it's fast and perfectly stable. I still find alot of the eclair sense ROMs for new radio are still a bit unstable and some things like camera and BT may or may not work.
The problem about a topic like this is that we get one every week or so. And since it doesn't have anything to do with development of phone OS related stuff it would probably fit better in another category
Anyway
32A Cupcake with HTC sense go for CursorSense.
32A Eclair with HTC sense go for Senpei's Legend or CapySlide.
Alan090 had a decent port of the my touch slide rom here recently. Old radio.
Only thing not working decently appeared to be bluetooth. But this is a sense issue affecting android 2.1 ports to magics apparently.
I Think you would find that this rom had alot of what you want.
Personally im hoping he keeps updating it with the new cm kernel ports and the pershoot improvements. I Would like to move to it soon as my second rom.
Otherwise I agree with ronni.
The only problem I had with any new radio sense port was the fact that usb tether doesn't work properly for me.

I have tried really many different roms.
Currently i am stuck with "CyanogenMod 5.0.7t3 - Fastest Eclair 2.1(05/11/2010) OC/UV (576Mhz)" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673394) which really is very fast and stable.

just cus u asked so nicely I will grant your request and add pershoots kernel
was waiting for an update to the rom from chiefz but he seems to have been on cyanogenmod 5 or something I know thats what I am using
also this is either suited for the general section - or like above - try out a bunch
see what works for you
Thank you very much... I will look into the different Roms listed here...
But one major thingh missing.. Is screenshots of the rom's. Ex just a screendump of the homescreen and menu screen could be VERY usefull...

Sense 3.6/4 apps on stock ICS

Hey guys, I've been away from Sensation development for a while so I'm not that current on what ROMs are available.
Basically, I've been using AOSP for a while and it's so much better at multitasking/fluidity that I don't really want to go back to Sense 3.6 or 4. However, I just don't think there's an app available that beats HTC's clock and weather functions - they really are amazing. I don't want or need access to Sense widgets, just the apps would be fine.
Is there any way to get Sense 3.6 or 4's clock and weather on a stock ICS Rom? I know it's not as simple as just chucking an apk on there because they come with additional services and libraries, so has any dev done something similar I might be able to have a look at?
Thanks for reading, I'd appreciate any advice or replies
Cheers!

No you can't, due to the framework of HTC apps it would not be possible on aosp.
However, what u can do is flash a sense rom and then flash one of the aosp aroma themes on top - that will allow you to pick if you want aosp or sense versions of certain apps and will give u the look and speed of aosp.

Hm, thanks for your reply, but I'm sure I've seen it done before - and not just a Sense ROM with an AOSP theme, but in my travels I've seen stock Gingerbread and ICS builds with HTC apps incorporated somewhere. I'm pretty sure, anyway

no i doubt it...
what u would have seen is the aosp theme - try it mate it looks and feels identical to aosp but with some htc apps. Its what ur looking for...
hi mate, i was using Virtuous Inquisition AOSP for past months, and had just went back to Sense ROMs.
Didn't do much. Was having a HBOOT 1.27, HTC firmware 3.32, while on Virtuous Inquisition. Just wiped all data, and flashed the OrDroid (Sense 4.0). Been using it for awhile, very stable so far.
ARHD is also a good choice for sense ROM, but thats a Sense3.6.
