For people that like Sense UI... ONLY!!!

Hi guys, just like what the topic says. For those who like AOSP don't be an arse.. and start crap in this thread.
OK, i was about to buy LGX2 on 4/20 at full retail and thought devs might port Sense UI to LG cause i like Sense and other varieties rom like CM7, Miui, etc.. just like our phone MyTouch4G. But I wasn't sure, cause in the back head thought how come Samsung phones like Galaxy S, 4G, Nexus S don't have any Sense port? Only AOSP roms. So I did some research and ask questions and found out there's no way to port Sense to LG or Samsung due to close source. So if you hate Sense then you can get LGX2 or Samsung. But I want varieties Sense UI, cm7, Miui ill be waiting and get HTC phones.
PS: don't be a [email protected],I'm posting this for new users to know before making a mistake.

Not trying to be a **** but its HTC sense so I would assume that mainly HTC phones would have it yes it is closed source which I don't quite uunderstand since Google's all about the open source so why let something else just close it, ya know?

Just use launcher pro with a sense dock. Then use beautiful Widgets for the clock and widget locker for a sense look.

Well yeah, but it wouldn't be 100% Sense UI know what i mean? Plus i don't care what other says about sense is slow or what. not for mytouch4g 768 of ram And sense widget.

HTC Evo 3D will have GSM version
http://www.gsmarena.com/gsmcapable_h...-news-2451.php
Probably don't have HSPA+ 1700 Band,but who give a **** i hardly get over 3mbps plus sooner or later Tmobile will be AT&T anyways.
So..which phone do you guys CHOOSE?
HTC Evo 3D GSM Version or
HTC Pryramid?
Let the bashing begins... hahahahaha

Tegra 2 fails in comparison to the dual core snap dragons. I think nvidia announced tegra 3 quadcore on phones by summer. I'm waiting for quadcore dual cores wont are not going to last as long. As the single cores did. The mytouch 4g has alot of ram as well so don't expect it to be outshine their was a video on YouTube of the mytouch 4g vs the atrix and the mytouch was blowing it out of the water.

Yep, I don't think the "Sense is slow" argument applies anymore. Phones like the MT4G are so powerful, I don't perceive any difference in performance going from a vanilla ROM to a Sense ROM. And phones will only continue to get more powerful.

Sense isn't slow I like it pure sense not T-Mobile version. I run cyanogenmod simply cause it save my days with the g1. Now I run miui with launcher pro. I personally like sense look but it uses alot of resources. 80 MB vs 254 MB they really don't need all of that stuff running in the background. Miui team changes alot and the rom is simply no bigger than 80 MB maybe HTC should look into a simpler way to implement their features without such heavy frameworks.

Honestly, since you like the UI's so much just buy the unlocked Optimus 2x for $550. Its only $50 more than the retail for the G2x. Here's a the link
Hope this is what you're looking for! I'm considering it myself, but I always root but I do like the UI on the Optimus 2x. Decisions!!!!

It doesn't matter if it's unlock or not that's not the problems. HTC Sense UI is close source, you can never port any Sense UI roms to any other models except HTC phones period.

Sense UI can be ported and was ported, just not properly. There is a port for Galaxy S. The problem is regaining radio functionality - and on Samsung they didn't achieve it. On the other hand, it took time to get Gingerbread on Galaxy S too, so it might just not be an easy task.

+1 I agree 100000000% with you. HTC Sense all the way. The other day I went to CM7 and then TR Ginger. Well, I am now running Evil's HD, and I think I am staying there. It is running super smooth with the latest Faux Kernal SV.

I love sense so much more but I couldn't make my battery last all day like I can with cm7. Maybe I just don't know the secrets to a longer battery life with sense.

I love my desire HD, but the battery does have issues (non rooted). My wife has the Galaxy S and loves it, battery seems to last forever.
My advice, get the HD and a Powerskinz now that they finaly make them if the battery issue is the dealbreaker.

[DISCUSSION] POST YOUR FAVORITE PHONE OF ALL TIME and/or CURRENTLY

I haven't owned many phones. Although, my first Android phone was an HTC HD2. Now I have a Nexus One, with a broken power button and I cant have much fun with testing ROMs with it, as I did with my Leo. My Leo broke, which is WHY I have a Nexus One -____-
SO IM CURIOUS WHAT ARE PEOPLE'S FAVORITE PHONE(S).
LONG LIVE LEO!!

I would have to say the Epic 4G, the original with a physical keyboard. With CM9 this phone is great and I do not regret buying at all.

Seems like a great phone, i would totally use it if i had sprint. Thanks!

now im using galaxy gio, nice phone, nice camera and worhted to buy
just in my opinion

Seems like it has some great development as well. Thanks for sharing!

using Galaxy Nexus , this is the best phone that i have ever seen

For this moment it is HTC Desire, always up to date and very good design and reactivity

Right now I'd have to say the HTC Sensation XE. It's my current phone and I did quite some comparing before I bought it. But with what I see coming the next years, I think my next phone will become by then-all-time-favorite and so on.

Isn't HTC HD2 a Windows mobile phone. It's not Android.

thank you but what's your opinion about that "nexus s or galaxy s"

I donno man.
If you are thinking about changing phone and wont be able to go for the brand new and expensive ones, I would recomend you to go for the Nexus S.
I myself changed my LG O2X for a Nexus S, mostly because of the Google brand, the promised updates, and all the good stuff developed for the phone to customize it with.
And lets be honest. Samsung Google Nexus S is so god damn sexy

keep your samsung galaxy s, just root it and install cm9 and overclock it to 1.2ghz

Yeah, ****ty LG didnt provide me with a stable phone.. reboots and bsod was occuring often with LGO2x.
Plus they didnt send out updates so often. I was still running Android 2.2 FroYo when Google updated their Nexus S with 4.0 ICS.
Atm LGO2x is on Gingerbread recently updated, and waiting for ICS in the end of the year or probably even next year...
To make a short story. I love Google Android, but not LG.
Thats why I changed for a Nexus s (same screen resolution, same clockspeed, not dual core though )

[Q]What to choose ?

Hello. I wanna buy new telephone , but i can"t choose which phone is better or something else..
I have 3 options here :
1. Samsung Galaxy S2
2. HTC ONE S
3. SONY XPERIA P
I'm looking foward to hearing from youu your opinions and advices
Sorry , for my bad English

If you can unveil the full potential of sgs2, it should be the one most customisable and hackable. However if you intend to follow the warrantied path, choose one s as it features more or less the same specs of s2, and perhaps a little better... The xperia p is not an option if you are not a hardcore xperia fan... Hope this helped... :thumbup:

+1 the Galaxy S2 has really good Dev support,a removable battery, and expandable memory

I think you should go with HTC One S. HTC is launching really awesome smartphone. HTC One S one of best smartphone by HTC because it comes with 4.3 inch screen display, 4.0 android operating system, 8 mega pixel rear camera with auto focus & 1.3 VGA front camera, Dual-core 1.5 GHz processor, 1650 mAh battery capacity. You can read full details here:

One s has no removables.

Hey don't post one s specs in here...everybody can Google it up...but the s2 is quite good...though the g version does not have much support...

it's ok :laugh:

I can confirm that the Samsung is probably the easiest to hack, so if you are looking into putting custom roms on it, go for that one.

It's my opinion. s3 a little bit better.

S2 is older, cheaper, but has waaaay more dev support than the other two
