Sense 3.0

just saw this on the xda news.... any dev looking at this?
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/exclusive-htc-pyramid-photos/

I'm definitely a first day buyer. Regardless of what happens with AT&T, this phone is too good to pass up. Besides, we'll still get more than enough use out of it.

Now, it's either this or the G2X. I'm looking forward to this but I HOPE it comes out soon!

Oooooh....is the sense 3.0 going to maybe be open source or available in the sdk?

No
Sense is proprietary code and has never been open sourced.

The G2X looks very appealing, but the Pyramid has a couple of things that the G2X does not - more RAM, bigger screen, and a better display resolution. Most importantly, it's made by HTC.
I am, however, very happy to see that T-Mo has finally stepped up its game in terms of high-end handsets. Unfortunately, in light of the impending AT&T buyout, it may be a bit too late in the game.

This phone would be perfect for me to use on wind! Me wants!

The G2X is supposed to also have AT&T 3G/4G bands. This one and the Pyramid are potential paperweights.

First 3d phone????? I would wait. There will be manymany many many bugs

Who else is extremely excited for ICS? The UI is beautiful.
What else can we expect from ICS besides the UI?

Hardware acceleration.

I'm looking forward to it, but who knows if it will ever get to our hardware. I may be looking forward to it on my next phone. Ha.

So you're saying some assholes are good? lol!
I'm looking forward to seeing how it runs on the myTouch 4G. (Just got mine back from HTC yesterday after a warranty repair. They replaced my good LCD with the bad one =( ... but all is working as it should again!) You guys think we'd get anything official? If not, CM (among others) will bring it to us, right?I bet it'll be real nice. Did they announce minimum specs to have ICS?
I personally love the looks of the UI. I especially like the widget management and if I remember correctly, I believe I heard there will be a native screen capture function (AT LAST!). Outside of those things and the hardware acceleration mentioned above, I don't know a whole lot about ICS, so I'll be following this thread pretty closely.

I did say the ui guys. I'm pretty sure the os is great. I just don't like how it looks.

I agree. From what I have seen in the videos, I think I like sense 3.0/3.5 UI more than ICS UI. HTC might make sense even better with ICS. I would definitely wait for ICS based sense ui.

Do you think that there will be an update to ICS for the MT4G? It looks pretty cool, but even if there is a custom rom with it, I can't get it because I have a bad EMMC chip.

i doubt it. we didn't get a android 2.3.5 or 2.3.7 update, i'm guessing android 2.3.4 was our last (and only) OTA. tmobile considers the MT4G as an "old phone" now
now i may be wrong though, so don't trust me 100% lol

Development

Well this day came alot sooner than it did with my htc glacier, development is all but dead, I'm not chasing any more phone hardware upgrades, that's what's good about an HTC phone as long as spec wise you can push it you can always load up the latest android sense version or port... And you got cm7/aosp also with HTC phones but you'll find it Damn near impossible to load a sense Rom on a aosp phone, not really sure what I made this thread for just to say the grass ain't always greener on the other side, stick with the sensation it is truely an amazing phone... One more thing when does cm7 nightlies start?

Tomorrow i'll try reading it out loud (don't really want my family to hear it, they'll think i'm nuts)

Some devs have left, yes, but that's the nature of the beast. But that doesn't mean development is dead. It's slowed down a bit since there hasn't been any new leaks.

any devs going to the Amaze 4g?

so im finally making the switch to a duel core phone, and decided to go with the HTC amaze 4g. i like samsung but there phones seem so flimsy to me, touchwiz is awful and m experience with the galaxy s was a weird one. anyways...i was just wondering if any of our favorite devs are moving/planning on moving or deving on the amaze. I have loved the development on this phone and have grown fond of the work of certain devs, (faux123, team royal, and TDJ). after seeing that tdj moved to the SGS2, it almost made me want to throw my amaze on craigslist, although i saw Faux wich made me happy ha. anyways i hope i see development on that phone as good as the mt4g was/has been.

Faux123 has an amaze but there is no s-off so no roms for s-on devices. Tdj and royalknight aka darkside dev team went to the sgs2. Your best bet is the amaze if you don't mind waiting for s-off

Not true. For the amaze you don't need s-off. All you need is an unlocked bootloader. I bought my girl the amaze because her mt4g broke. Unfortunately it came s-on (some people will be lucky enough and have s-off already when when receiving their amaze) so the same week I bought her the phone, I unlocked the bootloader. Its almost the same as s-off. I was able to grant her permroot and she can even flash custom roms and kernels. I already debloated her amaze and added a custom battery, tether and have setcpu running on it to get better battery life.
At this moment I'm researching on which custom rom is best for her so I can flash.
So if you lurk the amaze forum you'll see they have a few selection on custom roms, kernels and mods.

I saw different pics of the ville and don't know which ones are the actual pics for it. One of them looked a lot like the galaxy nexus and the other one just looked like crap.
And how did you guys find out about this phone? This is the first time i've heard of it.

Yea.I bought my amaze off contract so when my contract is up for renewal ill sell the amaze and get the next best thing in Q4 of this year...that's when all the best stuff comes out anyways

where'd you buy yours and how much? Just wondering cause I don't think phones are worth half a grand.

Just got the amaze today.basically a larger mytouch4g.Although it has a higher screen resolution,there isn't that great a difference from the mytouch.the camera is better no doubt.actually,its quite good for a camera.build is solid,yet remains light to the touch.
Sense 3.0 is so much smoother than any sense rom.
its abeautiful phone.
Recently got and unlocked a Sammy infuse.it has a nice Tom selection,which are high quality roms (Zeus) thanks dman,my daughter loves it.
I thought I'd prefer the amaze,but provably should have tried the sgs2.
Amaze is very good though!
Edit:yeah,that extra tenth of an inch on the Samsung phones makes a difference.atleast with the Zeus rom ,the infuse is kickass and so much smoother than any mytouch rom. Yet I made my choice.
Not dissatisfied,but miss that butter from the Sammy.

Huawei is actually pretty good, aside from their low end piece of **** phones they originally released (Their original Ascend didn't even have a freaking GPU -_-).

HTC posted the ics phone that will get ics

Looks like the final official htc phone list is out... any thoughts..

The Desire HD should be getting ICS July/August. That means before sept we will most likely have a Sense ICS kernel. When they release the source we'll have custom Sense ICS kernels.
Nice to know there are still things to do on our old phones.
