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.

I saw HD2 running Android and w7. So maybe we can have w7 OS run on inspire too. I am not a dev so I can't port OS to inspire but it would be nice to see some devs might be interested in it. Again just a thought.

While I agree I'm guilty of flashing a new Rom just about everyday but at the core of all Roms its still gb or froyo. Wp7 is a new os altogether. Maybe I just dont understand the desire to have it on this phone unless you like the specs of this phone over regular wm 7 phones perhaps.

There's a reason why you see an "Android Development" section in almost all native Windows Mobile phone forums. Windows Mobile seems nice, but eventually you realize that you bought the wrong phone.
You don't see a "Windows Mobile Development" section in any native Android phone forum do you?

You Flash New Roms because each New Rom is almost like getting a brand new phone every single time.
I love to Flash New Roms. I've tried just about every single android sd & nand Rom that is out there... When I heard I could flash WP7 OS to my HD2 I just had to do it! The temptation for another New, Uncharted, Undiscovered Rom was simply unbearable. If someone ports WP7 for the Inspire people will Flash it. My Roommate will be the first.

Would be super cool if people would support this phone like the HD2 (being able to run android and WM6.5/7). Just throwing it out there... Would have bought a HD7 but waiting for the software to do a little catch up. Thinking when mango is released it will be that point where it had matured and everyone would be content using it day to day.

I would totally be up for that! I really like both operating systems. If the browser were just better, or there were alternative browsers that were worthwhile on WP7, I might still be using the HD7. Right up until I ended up with a Sensation.

No, but its a retarded question.
As far as the OP goes, I was also gonna say no but stranger things have happened. Although obviously I was thinking of the HD2, but then who the hell would want to run 6.5 - most Sensation owners are happy with Android.
Same question has been asked already...
That new windows is closed source no?
who ever want mango on there HTC devices. should be patient. there will come out HTC eternity with 4.7 screen dual core. just check out from gsmarena.com. that is my advise.

man... the title had me confused for a minute... thought you guys were talking about this mango...

I was like, sure it's available on the Senny, what you talking?...
Lol.
question is, why are you using that launcher? you should ditch your sensation and buy a hd7 or some sort.
People here seem to be misinformed/trolling. First off, an HD7 is not really a comparable phone. Worse screen, processor, gpu, etc. Also, to the person that not even dual core could help windows, that had to be a troll remark. I am a diehard android user, but windows phone 7 still seems to have the same smoother user experience, and that's on inferior 2010 single core snapdragon processors.
The main thing preventing this from happening is the lack of drivers for the updated snapdragon platform on winpho7. I'm sure that when they make the move to qualcomm dual core chipsets that we use, there will be some porting attempts.

Hi,
HTC have released some awesome phones like the One X and my god it is fantastic, but the question is, shall I sell my Galaxy Nexus for the HTC?
The good points from the nexus are that I would be that I would be supporting to the next Android with no worry.
But the HTC would be more than capable for running the next Android version as its hardware is far better. Also I like the 1.5GHz Quad Core processor with nvidia tegra. But the updates that I would get will be later than the Nexus and also HTC are a pain to root with the boot loader and EXT partitions
What should I do?
Thanks Guys

The question isn't whether it's capable, but when the manufacturer releases the update. Currently, none of them have yet released a Gingerbread -> ICS update, and it's already been 5 months.
