[Q] Is Sense 3.5 coming too for Sensation?

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

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.

We've had it for the last 2 weeks or so! There's a load of ROMs in Dev with Sense 3.5

HTC Rezound Rom Port?

Is it possible to port the HTC Rezound rom to the Sensation? The reason I'd like to see this is because it has Sense 3.5 with native beats audio. A rom with native beats audio sounds A LOT better than a rom with the beats add on. For example, the stock Sensation XE rom by EddyOS sounds a lot better than any of these other roms with beats audio that just use an add on. It would be great to have the best of both worlds with an HTC Rezound rom, or even a Sensation XL rom.

same question

And what would be the advantage from an Rezound Port instead of the SensationXE Port from EddyOS? Ok, it has Sense 3.5.
But we'll see Sense 3.5 (or maybe Sense 4.0?) with our update to ICS...
The cookers would have to adjust the resolution (Rezound has 720p) and change the Kernel because of different hardware. Beside that, i see no really advantage of "original" Beats Audio (the version from EddyOS isn't "original" at all, the "original" Beats Audio Software only supports Beats Headphones) instead of an addon.
The resizing costs a much of time, so i dont think that there'll be a Rezound Port for Sensation.

XE Dev Subforum

All offtopic posts and threads regarding the existence of the Sensation XE Developer subforum will be moved here for sometime on.
Cheers

Yeaahhh Super Mods!!!
very good for a XE Forum!!!Thanks XDA are the best!!!

It's not good idea, imo it's just making life harder for developers. Both devices are nearly the same, using the same ROM's. XE can flash regular Sensation ROM and regular Sensation can flash XE ROM. Those devices are the same, why subforum?

Not sure of this sub forum, surley XE roms will work on my normal Sensation. Well they have so far, so why the seperate forum

Is this really necessary? Same Hardware, just no OC für XE ROMs...
Wo should post in this subforum? You could post everything in both development forums, so this may be obsolete?

Well...imo maybe not totally bad idea though. We can write something here to tell XE owners to go to the regular Sensation thread. After checking this sub forum then they know where to go.

I guess it would be better to rename Sensation Android Development forum to something like " Sensation and Sensation XE Android development". No need to create separate subforum as both devices are the same and can run the same ROMs.

lol.. Its like separating twins from dinner table... Its gonna cause more confusion especially for newbies...
Forum will now become flooded with posts like " will it work on Sensation?", "will it work on XE?"
Not at all a good idea...

+1 for both

And this is why devs are flocking from xda...

Well I think its a good Idea, Im not sure what roms etc work with the XE so would rather know by having a section dedicated to the XE. I see were your comming from with the sensation / XE being almost the same but they are not, So IMHO this is a better Idea

that may be so,
but when your running an XE like me, the flashable roms like insertcoin/arhd have no real improvement over the stock xe rom (comparing to the normal sensation) apm and theming aside.
looks like rehab 4 me since i gaven my DZ away, just waiting for the nightlies to kick off..

I can understand a sensation xl or subsection, but an XE subsection? They have the exact hardware minus the beats audio, underclocked processor on the sensation, and the red XE case. Makes no sense.

Which ROM is the bes for XE do you think? I prefer Energy and Revolution HD.

+1 IMHO that was a bad decision. It's going to cause even more confusion.

This subsection is now dedicated to the Sensation XE's red hardware buttons.
Discuss

No good idea in my opinion! Reasons see above..

I don't want to be rude or sth, but I did some digging into those two roms and they are both kinda slovenly build-up. I even remember Energy roms from WM development and they had probably the worst memory management I ever saw.

HTC Sensation & Sensation XE ICS Update [SENSE 4.0 OFFICIAL?]

It gladdens me to reveal a 'sort-of' official release date for Ice Cream Sandwich on the Sensation & Sensation XE! The following statement was released by HTC on their Facebook* UK page.
HTC has been working hard to get its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re excited to announce that our first round of ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of March for the HTC Sensation and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon thereafter by the HTC Sensation XL.​
Obviously the release date isn't going to be the most popular around people, as we were expecting the update to come much quicker. However this may point to HTC releasing Sense 4.0 to the Sensation straight away. Although it would be a strange market move, its after the MWC the just before HTC would probably release it's new phones. This article here talks about HTC's announcement.
The statement on HTC's page continues on to say the following.
In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this year to the HTC EVO 3D, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks​
*It has also been confirmed by HTC US (on Facebook) that the following devices will be getting ICS at some point later this year: The Rezound, Vivid, Amaze 4G and EVO Design 4G. All these phones are in the USA!​

Thanks for sharing !
Obviously it is a great news for the owners of "older HTC devices" , like DHD... etc

By HTC's standards, our Sensation is ancient! DHD is like a myan, never mind ancient...

Today HTC said on Facebook that the ICS update will include "the latest version of Sense". From what I know they are planning to introduce their new flagman phone very soon and it will be using Sense 4. Therefor I really hope our ICS will include Sense 4 as well. I was also expecting the OTA this month but maybe one month delay will proof worth waiting.

NO SENSE 4

Well the last leak had Sense 3.6, so I don't think the guy really knows.

Well he's obviously not going to confirm something that hasn't been announced. Sense 3.6 and 4.0 have bot actually been officially announced where as Sense 3.5 has. Sense 3.5 is currently the latest, but of course they wouldn't revert to 3.5 because it would be loads of development gone to waste!

New HTC Sensation owner. Which Rom

Hi just ordered a htc sensation anyone recommend the best roms (performance/battery life), i don't know if this is true but i heard that the XE version is just a overclocked HTC sensation so can you recommend me any Roms based on the Stock XE ICS,

Yeah, the XE "just" has an overclock to it, as well as integrated beats audio EQ.
I prefer the stock rom, because of battery life and stability. As far as i know, there is no easy root method for the sensation with ICS, so i have to wait till i get root access. I switched from an xperia x10 mini pro, where the rooting process as well als recovery installation was simpler then simple. The HTC sensation is, compared to that, quite difficult to handle.
I would recommend you to just stay on the stock rom, because of battery life and stability. Not that the ROMs are crap or something, but you have to know what fits your needs. Just look around and read carefully any root/unlock instructions

viper
try viper s rom and faux kernel 9 and enjoy your phone

If you are aiming for battery life and stability I suggest you go for a senseless ROM like HyperNonSense or Virtuous Inquisition

For battery life any sense 3.6 Rom and flash stock kernel on top.

Welcome aboard ! To be honest its all about personal choice but for speed and battery life i love to use virtous inquisition rom make sure to check stickies in dev section and do alot of reading before doing anything its really easy to mess up :/

Its subjective, the best ROM for you might not be the Best ROM for someone else, same goes with kernels.
This is because everyone uses the phone in different ways and not all phones are made equal (eg some can overclock more than others). Therefore its pretty useless to ask which is the best ROM or which ROMs should you try because people are going to tell you what works best for them, the only way to find the best ROM for you is to try a few and see which one you like best.
As for sensation and xe. The XE actually is not overclocked, the XE just runs the qualcom CPU chip at its stock speed (1.5GHz) whereas the sensation is actually underclocked to 1.2GHz. The other hardware differences is the red LED and speaker grill instead of grey/white.
Software differences, the XE has a beats wallpaper, no dice app and 2 values changed in the code of ext.jar and widget.jar in the method of get_PyramidLE_flag, it returns a value of 0x1 (true) whereas the normal sensation returns a value of 0x0 (false).
If your woundering about beats audio, its just an EQ profile, nothing special and its not exclusive to the XE either because if you replace the ext.jar and widget.jar files on a sensation ROM with the ones from an XE ROM, HTC music app will let you have beats audio effect even on normal sensation
