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.

This is not surprising at all. Glacier is using a bastardized version of sense 2.0 anyways, so there's no chance that htc or tmobile would hack a perfectly good version 3.0 just for glacier. Besides with announcement of sensation, tmobile will have a pure sense phone by summer, this would nudge most users to upgrade to the new sensation which what tmobile want anyways to increase sales. Glacier is an ugly step child used to show case video calling with 4g, sensation is the next flagship phone for tmobile.

Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App

Sense is more like what android should of been just with out the extra MB. To be honest I like sense better then stock so many things are better. I use cm 7 but use launcher pro. If sense could just make light framework edits like the Guys who make miui alot of people would use it simply it gives a better user exp. When I see stock I go eww. Its boring.
next phones to get Evo3d,HTC sensation, Samsung galaxy 2 going to start deving soon=D

You're lucky you got in the game late. It was agonizing since I bought it at release. I was checking every day to see what developments had been made. I was even the first to post links to the kernel source when it dropped. The original OS was pure torture. I'm just a Vanilla guy.
Besides- Vanilla takes about 90MB, Sense hits about 280MB.
Vanilla>Sense based on sheer efficiency.

Eh, well I guess the myTouch is running espresso so its not like sense 3.0 would change much on espresso. I'm sure when it gets gingerbread we'll see some UI changes tho.

When i saw the Droid X and Droid 2 getting locked down i decided that will not be a "first comer". I want to wait and see how it goes when it comes to rooting.... i don't mind tinkering. But i'm not putting up with a locked bootloader either.

My benchmarks and general user experience between sense vs aosp are barely negligible. Plus sense has all the UI fanciness and Widgets and IMO is just prettier. For as much MB as sense uses vs vanilla I don't see any meaningful drop in speed or experience. That to me is enough to put Sense higher up on my list than vanilla.

Honestly there is enough memory in phones now days that it doesn't even matter anymore.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App

I love both AOSP and Sense, but Sense is just so much prettier and has a whole lot more functionalities. I always end up going back to Sense. The FB and Twitter integration on Sense makes it worthwhile for me. And let's not even start on how horrid the caller ID screen on AOSP is
Although it's bulkier than AOSP, I see no noticeable speed difference.

Don't know if anyone has read the article recently, but there's an update saying HTC clarified that some of the older devices will get Sense 3.0. So, there's hope! And since ours is one of the more recent HTC phones, I think there's a good chance we may get it. If not, I think this will be the eventual ROM I finally leave stock sense for!
As others have said, with these phones having the power to smoothly run Sense, I prefer it for it's sleekness and most importantly the awesome widgets. I will say though, that I've fallen out of love with Friendstream because it's so friggin slow!

I hated the first release of sense that released with the hero, but I love sense 2.0, 2.1. Can't wait for 3.0 to be ported to the MT4G. Should hold me over until the Sensation is released.

See, I like both AOSP and Sense. Just depends on mood, but I can see the benefits of both and understand why someone would like one over the other. I just can't make up my mind sometimes.

I Needs It...... I needs my Superphone Fix...Ima have to turn a lot of tricks for the Sensation.

have you seen SENSE 3.5 yet?

hiya just found this on htc facebook page

I doubt we get this in any update. We will more than likely have to rely on one of the custom ROMs here for this. Keep in mind, I haven't read anything about it either way, that is just my opinion.

Check out the latest CoreDroid rom
I.m running CoreDroid 2.3. They put together a sweet rom w/ (As the dev put) "Sense 3.5 Goodies".

In my opinion I think it looks pretty good with maybe the exception of the home screen rosie dock. not a fan, but I suppose a rom, or even a theme could fix it. It looks like its running pretty smoothly too! I likee

I got the inside word that its already been booted on the Desire HD looking forward to that

I am sceptical, don't see the about phone screen which tells you the sense version, wouldn't that be one of the first things you would show, even photoshoped to look authentic ;-).
I have seen moded phones already that look similar to this, that are sense 3.0

its been ported to htc desire HD!! if we wait a while im sure to see it on sense devices

Sense 4.0 for sensation

So who thinks that we will be the first to have 4.0 on our phones....
Sent From My HTC Sensation 4G

Since the Sensation line is the first to get the ICS update, I am guessing that it might be the first to get the Sense 4.0 update as well.
No way its gonna be rolled out together with ICS

I think, that we will not get Sense 4 (with ICS). When I asked HTC on Facebook - they said, that we will get Sense 3.5 with ICS.

So, are they any screenshots about how Sense 4.0 will look like?
I was a sense defender, but I've trying the Virtuous Inquisition ROM for about a week now, and AOSP is really good, it looks nice too. I just miss a couple of things like flipping the phone to shut the ringer, the volume being turned down after taking it outside your pocket...

look there. IMO Sense 4 looks much better than 3.6<, it's elegant, smooth, maybe will be much better for memory

Thanks, looks nice! I'm sure Android Revolution team will adopt it as soon it is released , Maybe I will give Sense another try then

I'm pretty sure we will get it, but dunno when. But if the screen is already leaked out... I think it is not too far until mike suddenly post a news about oncoming new ROM
What I'm not sure is the quality of it. because from sense 2 to sense 3, the design is like overhauled. But seeing from the screen shots, I see no significant design improvement. (but of course it has functional improvement)
