The BIG Specs
HTC Sensation released..!!!
Hope we get the new sense port on our HD2..!!!
Mmmmmmm...
Looks good
It's gonna be damn hard seeing it is built on a completely different cpu. Maybe camera module also.
I just want that unlock screen - it looks awesome.
What are the chances for the Desire HD...
Well I am sure that it'll be ported to many devices as soon as we get the dump..!!!
YES, YES, YES, We'll be waiting for a port, especially for HD2
mmmm... new Sense dream
I personally don't even care if the HD2 gets a port from the Sensation (Pyramid) although it would be awesome to get one. I just want the real deal, I have been following this device ever sense I first saw a link in the T-Mobile forums for it. This is going to be one beast of a Android device. And whats up HTC, why change the name to Sensation, Pyramid sounds way cooler.
I just hope that it will be dual compatible with T-Mobile and AT&T when it does come out here in the US seeing how T-Mo is being bought by AT&T and by the time it is released in the US it will not be long befor AT&T takes over T-Mo if not already have taken over T-Mo.
SENSE V3.0 with qHD (540 X 960) resolution.
the resolution is different.
Yes, the resolution could be a plroblem. But I hope for a port on Desire HD too.
The Sense 3.0 is so nice!

At&t's deal with DT over t mobile won't clear for another 11 months. Even so there are many hurdles, and it won't even be overnight then. Last at&t just wants t-mo's towers, its anyone's guess what their plans for t-mo is. TL;DR: This device will definitely only be made with t mobile in mind.

Hope for a mdpi version of Sense 3.0 so that I can use it on my Legend. But now I am using sense 2.1
Hi Guys
I bought the SGS II but i started to regret this decision after a couple of days
Everyone wants something out of a phone and Sensation might be a perfect fit for one person, while the SGS II for another
I owned the desire HD before and I really appreciated how smooth the interface was, and the number of business widgets readily available with sense (email, calendar, people, friend stream). I also appreciated how social networking is integrated into sense
In all honesty SGS II is a beast when it comes to speed, but it UI is way behind sense. Out of the box it does not offer the widgets i want,and 3rd party widgets are not as good or do not offer functionality or integration with sense
Amazingly, SGS II UI also becomes laggy when you fillout 7 screens with widgets. I had 7 screens of widgets on the DHD and the scrolling was very smooth
SO MY QUESTION IS
is this smoothness retained in sense 3.0. Do they still have the same nice sense widgets integrated with the system and is sense still smooth even after you fill out 7 screens with widgets ?
Thx
Yes everything is integrated very well. So far no lag with filling 7 screens with widgets

Went from Desire HD til Sensation, and I am very pleased.
The form factor of the Sensation, although the difference is not huge on paper, is all in favour of the Sensation. It's much more manageable, and feels better in my hand.
The build quality is better, and to me it feels like an "improved" Desire HD, where all small quirks have been fixed (like battery and Sim card covers, and power/volume buttons)
In short the Sensation feels like a better quality device.
I have always liked Sense, and Sense 3.0 is a very good improvement, with nice new features. (I used Sense 3 addons on my DHD, and I would never go back to Sense 2.1 now)
It is to early for me to conclude battery performance, since the battery only have 2-3 cycles completed, but I have complaints on performance so far.
Speed of dual core is also hard to comment, as my Desire HD ran custom ROM, so it was fast. The Sensation does not feel slow at all, but about the same as the single core 1Ghz DHD. My guess is that when HTC opens the bootloader and custom ROMs are created, it will be noticably faster!
To be fair, I wouldn't be surprised if Sense 3.0 is ported to SGS II and TouchWiz 4.0 is ported to Sensation
I've always said I don't really mind what software the phone is running (as long as it's Android!) because I or another dev can port the software I'd like
i personally hate widgets and sense. So on my sensation I went with launcher pro and like 2 widgets. I dunno its just personal preference i guess everything is.

You should be surprised if that happens, because Sense has never been successfully ported to a non-HTC phone. Mildly functional versions have made it to the original Motorola Droid and some Galaxy S variants, but they have never been daily drivers. There are just too many proprietary HTC bits for developers to reverse engineer.

That was all before HTC opened the DEV Center for Sense, it may get quite a bit easier to work with Sense.

Always time for a first, though
Hey i have a question.. is the new sense 3.5 coming too for the HTC Sensation?
As it's aimed at lesser powered devices I'd say no but you never know
Surely it must work, I wish I knew how to resize the files from the new DHD rom and try to port it over.
Yeah, just seen the DHD Bliss-based ROM. Ideally we'd need to wait for another qHD device to be released to get it. Or that new 4.5"-screened HTC Android phone announced recently (like the Titan)

i thought titan was gonna have wp7?
maybe the revamped sensation will have it, but it wont really matter to me because i like senseless better
It is, but I'm sure I've heard there's gonna be another Android handset the same size. Could be wrong, mind
EDIT: The Holiday is 4.5" but leaks so far show Sense 3.0
The only thing I'm interested from in Sense 3.5 is the new Notes widget. That looks slick.
of course it will come out
Yeah, I'm sure it will come out, we have an excelent development team here
Most likely
What files would er need to port and how do you resize them to fit sensation ? I know that the HTC apks are needed but what other files are needed......libs etc?

There is a light version for underpowered devices, there's also a full version for high end devices, the htc rhyme comes with the simplified version, while the runnymeyde(or whatever its called) comes with the full sense
This is the runnymede rom

Today....maybe?!
EDIT: Yeah...ist out now. First ROM with 3.5 Leak available! Nice!
I hope it will beacuse it'll be nice to be able to eliminate the seventh home page on my Sensation Z710e.

Hi, I have dilemma, the time has come to buy new smartphone
I know this question was considered many times but let me describe my point of view.
My adventure with smartphones started with Nokia N82 and now I have HTC Desire Z. I was really happy having Desire Z and HTC made a real impression on me. Now I am considering to buy HTC Sensation or Galaxy S2. I really liked dev support for HTC and Cyanogenmod ROM and also other ones. I didn't use stock ROM. I am reading about many positives for SGS2 like display, camera, RAM and cons like Touchwiz, display resolution.
I would prefer to choose HTC maybe beacuse I know their product, I didn't have any samsung before.
My preferences:
For me the most important is performence, customization possibilities and dev support. I don't care about outside but only what is inside. I like sometimes to grab a picture or record a movie. For sure I am using the phone for multimedia: playing, web browsing and waching films. It would be nice if some newer games could be played smoothly. And I was really impressed by HTC custom ROMs (especially CM7).
Could you give me any view for situation repsecting my preferences? I wouldn't like to miss HTC and would like to have sure I will be satisifed if choose SGS2 (it said better performance/hardware).
I hope you understand my uncertainties.

I still think it'll come. HTC said the same thing about Sense 3.0 last year. Besides, the One V can run Sense 4...so can the Sensation.
"Considering that a phone like the Sensation (which features a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 768MB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage), can’t run Sense 4 smoothly, it’s better this way."
Wow, are you serious? CAN'T RUN SENSE 4.0 SMOOTHLY!? I call BS, the new One series has specs close to the Sensation and your telling me it cant run smoothly? smh. And i thought they said 4.0 was supposed to be lighter? da fuq.
thats why theres roms
From the original source of this story, Recombu.com, via phonearena.com, via droiddog.com:
**Update**
We've just received this written statement from HTC
"HTC Sense brings a variety of new software enhancements to HTC One, some of which utilize the latest hardware innovations, meaning not all functionality can be introduced to older HTC Devices. With that said, we are looking to bring a Sense 4 software update that includes as many of the enhancements as possible to a variety of our new devices."

its all for marketing purposes so you can buy the new phones
I remember them saying that Sense 3.5 would only be usable on dual core phones which was not true at all Had a Mytouch 4g running a Sense 3.5 rom with no bugs and great speed
plus its time consuming for them to update "old phones"
Plus, remember that the new camera features are a big part of Sense 4, which probably requires hardware that only the One series has (what they refer to as the "latest hardware innovations"). They would have to take that out before giving Sense 4 to our phones, which would take time away from the more important task of getting the One series ready for sale.
HTC never said themselves that the Sensation can't run it smoothly, that was just the website's assumption. It doesn't necessarily rule out us getting Sense 4 eventually, but I would not expect it to come anywhere near, and certainly not before, the release of the One series.

Yeah I remember that part, HTC said something about special imaging chip that allows to capture images during videos. I think that requires specific hardware.
Still they can upgrade software part of other things that dont depend on hardware, like new Sense launcher , themes etc.
Other option is that HTC probably knows that devs gonna port it anyways so they might as well let community to tinker with it
i don't htink so...it will come this summer or later but it will....
IMO
It will come with everything in 4.0 except the 25GB dropbox and new camera features.

Sensation specs close to the One? What have you been smoking? lol...it has much newer chipset technology, and will sh*t all over the Sensation crappy chipset....
the_scotsman, you just ninjad me...
Krait > Scorpion by far, just look at the Nenamark2 results:
HTC Sensation: ~44 FPS (avg, trying to eliminate custom roms).
HTC One S: 59.4 FPS limited by 60 FPS, i.e. this test does not utilize this chip's full power.

You're as excited as me to dump the Sensation for a One X, right?

As i saw on some videos on youtube. One V has 3.6 Sense, it looks the same as the 4.0, but there is no 3D effects in Sense launcher, that's the only thing i saw that is different than One S and X.
Let's start trolling on HTC like Desire users did

OMG I cant run sense 4.0 on my N95 or my samsung d500 or my sony tv nor does my iphone. do you hear my complian about that..No and i tell you why
personally couldnt care if my sensation is running sense 4.0 sense 3.0 or sense 2.1. what i want is a phone i can make calls on and send texts.. have a screen that doesnt have a green hint on it when it comes to take a picture..
companys make money by bring out new stuff on there new phones what i think HTC is doing wrong is not fixing the problems with there old phones before bringing out a new phone..
Im sure some smart Dev with bring out sense 4.0 oneday for the sensation but are you really going to bycot HTC for wanting to make money....
