{REQ/QUESTION} HTC Sense 3.0

Is anyone working on a Sense 3.0 ROM for the G2X? I've already seen it running beautifully on the MT4G

Nope no development. And likely wont see one. Asking for a sense rom on a non htc phone is blasphemy.
Sense is slow and useless imo

I agree...I like stock a lot better than any skin, even HTC Sense. Either way, I haven't heard anything about a Sense ROM for the G2X yet. Maybe when official Gingerbread comes out and development (hopefully) picks up again someone will port or start making a Sense ROM.

This. The Sensation, which has stronger hardware, is slower than the g2x. That's all you really need to know about Sense.

If you want sense buy a sense phone.
G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!

I really like the weather animations on sense 3.0. I've heard that beautiful widgets is close to that, true?

I really like Beautiful Widgets. Lots of goodies in that app. The weather animations are pretty sleek. Not sure how to compare it to Sense though.

GO Weather has a widget that can be skinned to look exactly like HTC and yet is free. Has other skins too, and even a live wallpaper that changes based on the weather.

All I want is the lock-screen, unless someone has advice for something similar for a rooted stock G2x.

Until we get drivers for gingerbread, a lot of ports are just not going to happen. Once lg/nvidia releases what we need, you'll be able to port anything over within reason. (On my old hd2 I had sense 3.0 running perfectly. And it's hardware specs were a lot lower than this. AND it ran well. Just needs quite a bit of tweaking.)

Seems like no one has come accross MIUI lol. THAT is the best ever. Hands down.

MIUI soon :)

Is this better than CyanogenMod?

Double post*******

To some it is due to its highly customization

Depends on taste......CM7 i think has better performance, but Miui is the must have anyone that loves to customize there phone. it lets you change everything piece by piece but it has no app drawer unless you use a launcher to get it back otherwise all your apps will just be on the front pages.
there both great, but cm7 still has my vote on sheer smoothness and tweaks. but again i loved "ee"'s themes for Miui so who knows

Scott951 posted MIUI ROM for 989 a couple weeks ago. Doesn't work too well yet though.

It is very "iPhonish" when you first use MIUI; throw a lancher on it, though, and it's back to business as usual. Very slick, very smooth, very customizable (if that's a word). Oh, and it's based on CM 7.1 sources. I've tried all sorts of ROMs on my Inspire, but I always end up going back to MIUI, it's just too damn nice. Getting a SR soon, and I'd love to see a MIUI build for it.

I agree with this. Almost every aspect of MIUI is iPhone ripped. Throwing a launcher over top of it kind defeats the purpose of MIUI (IMHO).
I have used MIUI and it had horrible battery life, right up there with CM7. Personally I would never use MIUI or CM7 ever again (on one of my phones).
That being said
I have MIUI on my daughters phone because she loves the iPhone and since I am giving her my Captivate for Christmas and she really wants an iPhone, I decided to put MIUI on it to ease the pain. LOL

agreed,
women seem to love miui though......hence why i am trying to put it on my old cappy to give to my GF.
but am having issues with the drivers.
i dont mind CM7, with the right kernel the battery drain is not that bad......but yes it can get annoying to have plug your up to the wall every couple hours as a preemptive strike on your phone dying.

same reason I put it on my Cappy for my daughter. She loves that iOS look and I am NOT buying her an iPhone, so this should do great for her.

I have had iphone3 3gs and 4. I don't like them and this captivate is already paid for. So I'm not buying a new phone when this one works fine. Especially since she's 14 and this captivate is a huge upgrade for her.

Ok. So what would it take to get MIUI ported onto SR? What's the process? I tried everything on my HD2 and i always ended up with MIUI. And now i upgraded to SR and would love to install MIUI on it. How to we initiate it?

It boots but no data, someone said they fixed data and will give me the zip but haven't received anything

Why does everyone wants ICS so much?

Hey guys, I recently went into Verizon and played with the galaxy nexus. Its a nice phone, but what's so fantastic about ICS? I thought it was too dark, and really slow (at least the display model was). I've used sky-ics rom and I had to go back to StockMod.
So why exactly does everyone want it and ask about it? Personally I prefer touchwiz, its a lot more intuitive. The biggest difference I saw was the widgets displayed in the launched and the recent app tray thing. But its not like a game changer.
I don't mean to offend anyone, but just curious.

I think it's because everyone wants the latest and greatest. People are getting bored of Gingerbread.

Cause we can't have it. .....yet

I came to the SkyRocket from the Inspire recently and the last ROM I used on it was an ICS ROM. Chrome beta alone makes it well worth it not to mention its the latest and greatest and we can't have it!

sky-ics is still gingerbread.
the main reason i want ICS is that its a whole UI overhaul. it looks smooth and fancy. lol. i had ICS on my captivate and LOVED it. i cant wait to have ICS on my skyrocket

ICS is built for dual core.

ICS is amazing

ICS is great. I love it on my xoom. Chrome beta is also worthwhile, much better than the stock browser. Also lots of little things make me want ICS.

I mean why not, having gingerbread is to mainstream.

Touchwiz isn't a operating system buddy but a UI overlay by Samsung. HTC has sense and so on but both companies devices can have ics

I bought it. Not that bad for a beta. A lot to come though. Not worth $20 for now. And... it can't be installed on Miui.
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

It has been 3 months since the last post. Is it better? Is it a battery and/or Ram hog? The themes look great so I was just wondering if this could possibly be worth that much $$.

Its nice, but its not really worth the cost. There are launchers just as good available for much cheaper.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

I'm using it right now...I dig it. Its unique and its actually very fast.
Not as customizable for sure as let's say Go Launcher EX..but go launcher is a memory hog and gave tons of FC's.
I've tried ADW EX and a handful of others...even Rocket Launcher
What other good customizable launchers are out there?

So it didn't drain your battery and use all your ram? According to the reviews it does this.

[Q] Sense 4.0 for Verizon GS3?

Does anyone know if there is any Sense 4 for the Unlocked, Rooted, Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII

No. We will probably never get it either. Unless you attempt the port yourself

there is a project called sense4all i believe, it is for all galaxy devices. try googling that
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium HD app

just use the sense4 theme on an aosp rom, it gets you the look. Most don't miss the functionality. Huge app previews on app switcher? There's mods around to do that. Lock screen copycats are available on apps as well. Can't think of anything else to miss.

I still don't understand why people want sense....... its the worst skin in my opinion .....

Sense has a few nice parts, like it's People app, folders etc. But yeah, TW is better

I always liked Sense, but it has too much UI lag for me. But we'll never see that on a non HTC phone now, way too much work, too complicated, and to most devs that could do it, not worth the effort

Never EVER thought I would hear someone say TW is better...Lol I think it's just inherent to all phone owners to hate whatever ui is on their device and want the others.

I like Sense better in regards to "out of the box", however, until HTC starts putting decent sized (removable) batteries on their Verizon phones..... Well, I now own a Samsung.
Now that I took the leap to root and customize it a bit more, I may change my mind about which I prefer later. I'm not a fan of "stock Android", but Touchwiz seems to offer a little bit of both worlds.

You hit the nail on the head. Opinion, others opinions differ from yours an my opinion's. You see, believe it or not. The world does in fact not revolv around one particular human. Well, maybe it does revolve around me slightly. But thats not my fault. I'm just that cool.
Any way, all joking aside, I like Sense. I miss my Rezound because of it. It in "my opinion" would be wicked cool.

Yeah same here. I'll admit Sense can be laggy, and the huge previews for app switching is silly, but TW is an eyesore, Sense looks loads better in my opinion.
Then again I started out with an HTC phone and have stuck with them so, there's that.

Came to sammy from an OG Evo and sprints crappy ass service, I too lean towards sense, I just use go launcher with sense 4.0 theme and android pro widgets, I swear its almost an exact clone except I can't find a sense 4.0 clock.
