[Q] Android 4.0 ROM for HTC Sensation?

Hey devs,
Found a few threads from the HTC Desire department where they are talking about Android 4.0 and making a 4.0 ROM for the Desire...
Is that also possible with our Sensation? I mean, we have better processor, GPU, screen etc. Haven't found anything about this in the Sensation department yet.
Thought I'd ask
Greetings!
Why can't you report stuff on the XDA app yet?

I saw some screenies on the Nexus Galaxy, looks slick as hell! I might just have to get the Nexus too when it comes out. Too many new phones, not enough time to enjoy a single one before I'm on to the next.

no need to change the sdcard...
need some info here..you are 1.17.111 and i assume you are SOFF (deduced this by reading your post)...
the only misssing this is cid...if you are supercid thats good...otherwise
get the corresponding 3.32 firmware for your cid...or you can simply supercid as you are soff "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"

now for iCS you require 3.32 firmware...and what issues you are facing when flashing the firmware ?
you can take this guide as refernece for flashing firmware (steps 4 and 5 for flashing firmware)

For the stock phone its android 2.3.3 withe sense 2.1 upgradeable to android 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 officially without unlocked bootloader. And yes, it will receive android 4 update but with sense 3.6
If you s- off your order phone or unlock with HTCDev you can load up pretty much any thing you want.
Beamed telepathically using Tapatalk
Gingerbread 2.3.3 with sense 2.1. Not sure if it ships with it but it can be updated to 2.3.5 with sense 3.0. Ice cream sandwich is expected this month with sense 3.6

Lucky if you get a desire S with sense 2.1.
First thing out of box, revolutionize it.
If you are buying a new phone, would recommend you too check one v. Almost same specs but newer model hence will receive more updates in the future

How do I get the latest version of Sense or upgrade the version I have?
Hope the microwave thing is a joke?!!! I'm really learning about these things so don't really know how to upgrade to the latest Android and Sense. If I only have Android 2.3 or thereabouts, how can I upgrade HTC Sense so that I can then upgrade my Android?
start from reading the manuals in the forum
if you want to stay on the official versions by htc, you dont need to do nothing.
your phone is up to date, and if update will be available your phone will tell you
I had ics running on my desire s worked fine apart from camera

Yes, because you didn't need htcdev and with revolutionary s-off you can do almost everything inside this forum, the only thing i would recommend is to change the revolutionary bootloader to a eng bootloader, check the index if you don't know how, it will keep you from problems you could face.

How to replace HTC Sense

Hey XDA-Developers members!
I would like to replace the HTC Sense with something else, for example ADW launcher.
I found on this forum xda-developers something which I found interesting.
( Rosie.apk -> HTC Sense !!! install other launcher before removing like ADW !!! )
Does that mean that I can Remove/Freeze ( HTC Sense ) and replace it with ADW?
Model number:
HTC Sensation Z710e
If you are looking just to change the launcher, you don't necessarily even need to freeze applications. Go to the play store and install the launcher then choose that as your default. That might be a lot easier.
For a more cleaner Rom get root explorer but first install a launcher and the open up explorer and go to system>app and delete anything to do with sense fore example rosie.apk and widgets

If you hate sense that much, flash an aosp rom. You will get the pure android experience you are looking for with none of the sense framework that causes lag

Q&A means Questions and Answers, here is the Q&A forum for the Sensation.
Sure can.. I'm running Nova and froze sense. If u wanna remove it just back up jus in case.
Keeping 2 launchers consumes more juice. Atleast thats what it did back in the Eclair/GB days.
But keep the sense lockscreen.. if not u need to unlock to see caller I'd. Bug thing.

Hey Sindroid.
Can you please tell me exactly which Sense apps you froze.
I would like to do the same.
But I'm scared that I will freeze the wrong apps.
I have two sense apps [DESKTOP] HTC Sense and HTC Sense
you can always flash HNS which is stock but without sense thing, except camera (gallery and music player if you prefer stock).
or use Virtuous Inquisition.
you can find it in development section.

[Q] is there any way to flash or install htc sense on a jb costum rom separatly?

guys just flashed jb 4.2.2 on my sensation xe it works nice but dont have htc sense is it posible to flash any htc sense separatly?
I don't think so. Sense is an user interface that changes most of files of a rom.
What you can do is search for a sense theme in theme section (probably there isn't one) or wait for venom team fix and release jb sense version. They already got it working, but there's still some major bugs.
thing is. i wish i can dual boot with two different roms... i remember something like that long ago. i wonder if it works... i should search the thread.
if you have any luck plz share with me and thx

Sense 5 with 4.2.2 is not available at the moment.
It could be ported when AT&T HTC One X (aka One XL or Evita) receives sense 5 + 4.2.2.

Finally HTC One X getting Android 4.2 + Sense 5 update in Europe . huraaa!!!!:laugh:
Not long after the HTC One X+ started getting its Android 4.2 update in parts of Asia, HTC Europe has followed suit with an update for the original NVIDIA Tegra 3-powered One X. Reports from the XDA forums show that the update to version 4.18.401.2 weighs in at a little under 380 MB, and includes Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and the new HTC Sense 5 UI. As such, the update also adds many features from the HTC One, including the BlinkFeed home screen experience, the new Gallery and Camera apps, and automatic video highlights.
It's worth underscoring that this update is for the European HTC One X (codename Endeavor), not the AT&T One X, known internationally as the One XL (codename Evita). So far there are reports that the update is hitting Nordic countries and parts of Eastern Europe first, including Slovakia and Denmark; other European countries should be getting the OTA in the hours and days ahead.
HTC insider @LlabTooFeR tweets that the European HTC One X+ should also be getting a similar OTA, to software version 2.18.401.2, however we've yet to see any signs that that update is rolling out.

HTC Sense is a software suite developed by HTC, used primarily on the company's Android-based devices.
please see this intro for more info : HTC Sense From Wikipedia
you can see complete comparison between HTC Sense 4 and HTC Sense 5 here :
HTC Sense 4 vs. HTC Sense 5
now as @khan.orak predicted before , we kiss ROM Cooker's hand to offer its Htc One S version for us ....
have anybody got any news from Sense 5 distributions for HTC one S ? i was thinking that it will be expressed as soon as ONE X getting sense 5 update !
Now that the X is getting Sense 5 with 4.2.2, maybe, just maybe, the same for the S will follow soon?!!!!!
LOL, this thread is full of idiots.
They're not idiots, just n00bs.
The Evita has started getting the Sense 5/4.2.2 rollout as of yesterday, it started in Deutschland, so whenever a dump is posted on the interwebs I shall give it a shot at porting it as a new DarkSense version.

If you tried searching in the dev section, you would see the number of ROMs that are bug free 4.2. If you're not happy with the number, make a new ROM yourself.
Why is it so hard to just look?
