I really like the HTC Desire S camera application and I was wondering if there was a way to port it to the original Desire? I'm currently running CyanogenMod 7.0.3 on it and it uses the stock camera app that comes with Android 2.3.3. Let's be honest, it looks pretty dated. =P
The HTC Dev site just launched yesterday/today (depending on your time zone) and the source code for the Desire S is available, so maybe some awesome person out there will be able to port it.
Any hope for me and other people who like some of HTC Sense?
Thanks guys!

Hey,
I'd like to buy a new device soon but I'd like to keep the price as low as possible.
So I actually wanted to buy the Desire HD (600€).
But then I noticed that some devs got the Desire HD ROM working on the HD2.
So the HD2 is available for around 350€ here.
What would you say?
Can the HD2 provide the same quality and is the Desire HD ROM running nearly as good as on the native Desire HD?
Thanks in advance,
Florian
I have a HD2 and a HTC Desire and my advice would be, if Android is your weapon of choice for an operating system, go with an android device.
I've tried a number of Android Roms on my HD2 and although they are great, they are still in development and battery life is an issue with the Rom having to be run off the SD card.
Have you considered a HTC Desire?
I've noticed the screen sizes of your mentioned devices. So have you also looked at other phones with big screens such as evo 4g, captivate, vibrant and epic 4g?

The hd2 boots the desire and the desire hd roms so for the price id say the hd2 you get the best of every thing hands down
with new wm roms built to run android battery life is no longer an issue
A HD2 doesn't run the Desire ROM as good as the Desire and does not yet match it closely for battery life. However I'll add that i'm running a stock WM ROM on my HD2.
If you want Android working out of the box then get an android device. Just be aware the HD2 may require tweaking to death to get it to work well and not everbody is prepared for that.
My reason for suggesting the Desire is the price as i think it is coming down in price alot now and is a very good buy.
All my opinion of course
I was also in this dilemma for a while, and I wanted so much to try android, and the same time keep it on the safe side with a windows mobile, so i got 2 days ago the HTC HD2, put Dutty ROM, and i am trying a few android roms, and for now, i like it very much.
Android on HD2 is not perfect yet, but it is going in this direction, but it is very usable, need just to find the correct edition to use...
I would say Desire HD. Has the 2nd Gen 1 ghz snapdragon CPU, an updated GPU, and 769 MB of RAM. Also it now has permanent root.
So I know gingerbread is one its way, supposedly on the 6th will be the release date, and HTC is working on the new HTC sense (featured on the desire HD and and desire z) for devices with froyo ie. Incredible and EVO. I am wondering if anyone has any more information on the release date of the two or of they may come together as one thing, which we would be incredibly convenient. By the way, I have an EVO running 2.2 thanks!
Welcome to forums
Gingerbread most likely will be ported to older devices thanks to the great Chefs in XDA
Hello guys,
I'm going to purchase the Desire S, and I wonder if it will have the Sense 3 or 2.1. Also I want to know what are the differences between them. and if I can install it on my phone (in case it is not already on the ROM).
It shipped with 2.1 and it slightly might get sense3 offically in future update
the defferentthat that i know is sense3 has beautifull 3d effects
devs already ported sense3 from HTC sensation to Desire S it has some
bugs hope will be fix in the future.
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

We've had it for the last 2 weeks or so! There's a load of ROMs in Dev with Sense 3.5
EDIT: Old post, my bad!
Hi, do anyone has tried to make a sense theme or scene like the HTC One for Desire HD / Inpire 4g?
I was trying the beta (port from ONE V) but the infunctional camera doesn't make me to keep that software.
Thanks!
Nope...its not going to work in Inspire due to various restrictions including device specifications....
Bro its working perfectly!
