Since I don't have enough posts to post in the direct thread for [ROM] Android Revolution HD™ 3.6.7 XE | 4.1.7 Sense 3.5 | High Quality & Performance, I'm going to post this here.
I've tried both the 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs that Revolution HD provides, and personally I find the 3.5 ROM to be a bit slower than the 3.0 Sense ROM, but I'm not sure if it's just me being crazy or it actually is because 3.5 is still considered beta. To people who use this ROM, which do you find better/faster? 3.6.7 XE or 4.1.7 Sense 3.5? I'm looking for the best performance and speed for my phone.
Thanks.
Sense 3.0 is faster than 3.5 & has better performance.
Im using 3.6.7 XE (flashed it today, was previously on 3.6.5) and it's been working perfectly.
Yes, 3.0 is totally better in my opinion.
So what is fundamentally different between 3.0 and 3.5 ? I know one is 2.3.4 and the other is 2.3.5 but what are the advantages of 3.5 over 3.0 ? Thank a lot guys

Hi,
3.0 is always going to be better than 3.5 in terms of speed.
But it is also a question of how it "FEELS" to the user.
I find a much better "FEEL" to 3.5.
Even though it is still a beta,I prefer it,but that is a personal observation.
Go with what YOU like.
Hi. For music lovers sense 3.0 is much better, because is on XE base and music quality is way better. I like sense3.5 too, but personally I prefer the music quality.

In my opinion, HTC Sense 3.5 sucked. Greatly.
It's slow, a bit buggy (expected) and the damn facebook for sense kept getting medieval.
That plus the far superior audio performance on the XE rom: Get the version 3.

I thought the majority of the performance (+bugginess) issues with 3.5 were mostly due to it being a leaked beta and that it should be just as solid and fast as 3.0 (or even better) once HTC resolved the known issues. Is there something else behind the slowness in 3.5 that I'm missing?
BTW... I too "FEEL" better using the 3.5 Sense. I find the email and contact interfaces to be much easier to use and I use them much more than playning music.
Appreciate your input,

Thanks for the replies, I installed the latest version of 3.0 Revolution after installing the latest 4.1.7 and there is a significant difference when it comes to speed (3.0 > 3.5).
I honestly prefer 3.0 over 3.5, seemed more stable. 3.5 also didn't look too different from the 3.0.

Hi,
you are right about the beta issue, but having tried both,I too feel more comfortable using 3.5.
I use ROM cleaner to get rid of all sorts of crap and bloat.
That in itself helps to run it smoothly and without lag.
So I'm happy.
You pay your money(or not ) and make your choice.

Same thing. I run @ 1.118 and all my games like Trials and Speed 3D all run fine and I use 3.5. But same thing I have a mp3 player if I want music so I don't use my phone for that.

Hopefully, there will be an HTC/carrier release with an upgrade to Sense 3.5!

mmeyer4663 : there wont be a 3.5 for sensation as this rom is made for the lower end htc devices .. we should expect something better
fishluke : it actually looks and feels good on my Desire S
I would think you need 3.5 Framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk for it to work and if your changing them, you need to change the whole rom

Oh they put it on Desire S already, that was quick ;o.
At the moment I'm using 3.0 with amazing sense skin looks pretty slick.

Not really - I already merged all changes from 3.5 com.htc.resources to 3.0 resources and same with Rosie, then compiled all stuff against new merged com.htc.resources. New framnework works perfect, but the issue at this stage seems, that apk´s also ask for shared m.10`s from sense 3.5, which aren`t compiled correct as in previous 3.0 versions. I`m working on it, but that might be a dead end...
I still hope seo will also have a look, since he`s really good, but if I`m right, then the only chance is, that diamondback and flemmard can beat the issues on latest Sense ROM`s (2.3.5 and Sense 3.5).

Wow, no disrespect to any devs working on this but thats ass backwards. The high end devices sporting sense 3.0 should have been first to get sense 3.5. Dont know how it got to the HD2, even though thats an awesome device that i had twice. How did 3.5 skip the best of the best?

I agree with you! I think it would easier to change 3.0 to 3.5 than 2.x to 3.5 but i"m not a dev.

3.5 Has never been officially released. Every rom that is built with Sense 3.5 is a port of either the HTC Bliss or the HTC Runnymede, which aren't even releasing until late this year to early next year. Those leaks are natively WVGA, hence the reason why they are being ported to WVGA devices. Sensation & Evo 3D are qHD, which may be the reason devs are holding out for a qHD release.

The main reason why 3.5 won't make it to 3.0 devices, besides resolution, is 3.5 is designed for lower end, less powerful devices. They didn't 'skip' us, they just made a lighter version of Sense for a different class of phones.

3.5 isn't "designed for lower class phones" it's optimized for better resource management, which is why it runs better than the qHD ports for our phones (I'm still on evo) 3.5 has a lot of upgrades and enhancements and y'all will get an official release of it too.

Yeah exactly, better resource management essentially means - make the best out of less ram/slower cpu which = different class of phones. Also, this is the Sensation forum, so we don't run qHD ports, they are native. Of course a Sense 3.5 wvga port will run better on your evo4g - less memory, slower cpu, same resolution...it's made for those specs, albeit newer hardware but nonetheless.
I highly doubt that the Sensation will receive an upgrade to 3.5, especially after all the hype about the animations, i just can't phathom why they would totally change the UI like that so soon after all the work behind 3.0. I have a feeling htc will just have different versions of Sense for different phones, not like they've never done that before (cough mt4g and mt3gs).

I hate samsung's touch wiz, it's slow and laggy, even on dual core phones
I am planning to buy a new phone this holidays and I am planning to get HTC this time, I heard Sense 3.5 is good, but i haven't tried one yet.
Thoughts?
On my personal opinion Android without HTC Sense is boring.
Sense 3.5 is just amazing!

Got sense 3.5 with the new Android Revolution HD ROM and it's really nice. I really think HTC has got it working. Still I miss some features like variable icon size and possibillity to alter number of rows and collumn on the home screen. I get that with Launcher Pro though.

Sense 3.5 Tutorial?
I'm currently using Sense 3.5 from Remix 3D and I love it. Does anyone know of a good Sense 3.5 tutorial so I can be sure i'm not missing out on some cool features? Thx!
Both Sense 3.0 and 3.5 are nicer than CM7 or MIUI in my opinion. The problem comes with stability. I had issues with occasional reboots with my stock Desire and now with AceS v3 (and especially v4) I'm getting a lot of complete freezes.
MIUI does exhibit the problem, but it's not as nice as Sense IMHO
I've noticed with Sense 3.0, it was sluggish.. 3.5 seems so much faster, I also see a lot of Sense development for 3.5 just wondering what's everyones thoughts on Sense 3.5

like the bliss mod on it like the one in rcmix 3D. didnt really like sense and got out of it once the senseless and aosp roms were out. came back to try out 3.5 and i loved it mainly because of all tweaks these hard working devs are able to put in
The speed improvements came when HTC released their 2.3.4 update. Made everything a lot smoother. The 3.5 ROMs that I've tried are still slower than LeeDROiD and Pyramid 3D, which are still Sense 3.0

Hey guys I'm on Virtuous Inquisition 4.0 & I really love how smooth it is and its clean feel. Loved it enough to get rid of my gs2 as it makes my sensation so much more functional. But, I'm looking at buying Tmo's HTC one S when it arrives, so I'm wanting a good taste of sense 4.0 to see how I feel about it. What's your favorite sense 4.0 from, and what's the smoothest? I rely on my phone heavily for business, so I don't want something that will fail me, though I know there's always a risk
Looking forward to everyone's opinions, and thank you to all!
It's probably stick to Sense 3.6 ROM's for now if you need your phone to work.
Most of the hardware seems to be working in Sense 4.0 ROM's but I have read (haven't tried for myself) that they're still quite rough around the edges.

HTC has not released Sense 4.0 for the Sensation yet. and probably never will. Sense is garbage to begin with anyways. Use a non sense ROM. The experience is so much better and yoiu get nearly triple battery life. Sense freaking rapes battery.

Stay with Sense 3.6. If you need your phone for business. None of the 4.0 roms are close to ready. They function, but performance across the board is low. There's only so much devs can do, and those roms are not ready to go yet.
Im very Happy with senseissimo but very Bad battery Life :-(

Sense may be more stable but the vanilla experience of android is so much better.
i prefer sense with all utilities of HTC device.
I prefer Sense. Sense looks somewhat professional whereas CM Roms don't. You'll find CM on almost every devices, but will find Sense on ONLY HTC devices.
Sense is only thing that makes difference than Other.

I have tried various roms but so far i must say that i prefer CM over sense (because of all of the modifications you can do)
I prefer sense (ARHD to be specific) mainly because you don't see a "working/ not working" list because everything just works
Sense is cooler but I'd rather have the latest updates than sense if HTC is going to bullsht their way to bankruptcy
