[Q] sense 2.1 - HTC Sensation

was just wondering if there were any sense 2.1 roms out there for our sensation?
sense 3.0 upwards is too much in my opinion... prefered the older version!

Don't think so.
I believe the Sensation shipped with 3.0 at release.

Sense 2.1 on sensation...possible?

Title explains it all really, I'm wondering if its even possible to port sense 2.1 to the sensation.
I like sense 3 and all but its just not stable, I would prefer to have sense 2....I miss my desire hd became of it.
But obviously this phone has many hardware advancements so I wanted to see if it was possible to have sense 2 on it, then its like the best of both worlds
should be possible since its a sense rom but id say a new kernel would be needed?
Possible ? Sure, but I don't think that You'll find a developer which will try to port 2.1 on a device already coming with Sense 3.0.
Sense 2.1 is only build for older devices and not for sensation for evo. 3d

Is Sense UI getting better?

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

[Q] Sense 3.5 ota

Is anybody here party to any reliable information regarding an official sense 3.5 ota?
I find 3.5 a nice improvment on 3.0 and would love to get it officially with the minor bugs ironed out that are present in the leaked test release.
Do we think (or know) that this will happen or will we have to wait for a further iteration of sense (4.0?) before we get any official updates.
I get the impression that the dev's are a little quiet at the moment so perhaps some people know things that the rest of us are not party to??
There's talk that as ICS is out early next year HTC won't bother with officially releasing the leaked ROM. However, we may still get Sense 3.5 as there's nothing to suggest we'll get Sense 4.0 when ICS is released
I hope it soon comes....
Find the HTCnotebook as widget so great, it would soon like to have...

I don't think that htc Will leave us atto 2.3.4 till ICS release...
In my opinion the 2.3.5 with sense 3.5 Will arrive (sooner or later)
i think that sense 3.5 comes with ICS
they just devepoped a new sense and they are not going to use it?
well seems not really understandable to me so i would guess
ICS 4.0 with HTC sense 3.5
otherwise it would be (again) a sense 3.0 (or 3.5) based UI with only slight changes and nothing big to show

The fact is that in my opinion htc could't leave One or its top devices with an older software than other devices like htc rhyme or sensation xl

sense 4.0 vs current released leaks

So from what i can see and know the leaked release for 3.6 keep rolling out and they are def getting better, what i don't know is that sense 4.0 with ics is about to release mid march + to our sensations. So why are there updates for 3.6.
Just guessing but id say that the 3.6 is preparation for sense 4.0, will use the same base but with sense 4.0 in place instead ??.
Thank you ;D
Sorry but where do you have a confirmed, reliable source saying that the Sensation is getting Sense 4.0 in March? There are rumors but they are not reliable. And you answered your own question anyway: the leaks have 3.6 because that's what the final version is going to have. There is no way that they would test with 3.6 for months and then suddenly switch to 4.0 with less than a month left.
Oh k so sense 4.0 is never going to be on sensation ?, um i never said confirmed but htc did say on many occasions that ICS would be released to sensation before the end of march.
no we will most likely get 4.0 but a leak is a leak some guy at htc posted it "i think htc leaks them self for free testing" and then devs work on it and beta test it and share with us a final version is the last one they are supporting as on now if you have a tech problem with 3.2 htc will tell you to upgrade TO final version
oh most releases fixes a known problem only a update and the releases from a dev may or may not be a new release he could have just fixed his rom look at change logs
ICS is coming but not with Sense 4.0, at least not at first. It will drop with 3.6 and if we're lucky we might get 4.0 at some point.
might update to the htc one, seems like a better phone atm.
new i would wait all phones have bugs we are just getting good now
wouldn't count on it

I don't think Sensation will ever get sense 4 - if you look at their new line, the One V (cheapie phone) ships with ICS and Sense 3.6, I think that's probably what Sensation will eventually get. Might not be bad though 3.6 is looking a little less resource hungry than 3.5 but still keeps mostly the faux 3d feel of sense (sense 4 looks more flattened). You will probably just have more stock ICS components - Stock Multitask for example.
HTC ONE V COMES WITH SENSE 4 THAT IS CONFIRMED ON HTC WEBSITE, SO SENSATION SHOULD ALSO GET SENSE 4 I SUPPOSE

i read some were that they are releasing a beta overseas for a few users with 4.0
from insertcoin-roms.org
Baadnewz posted yesterday this:
Ice Cream Sandwich Final Build for Sensation
Finally HTC Released Ice Cream Sandwich for Sensation
Android version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense version 3.6
Build number 3.32.401.3 CL309896 release-keys
But it was released to only 300 persons. Stay tuned . Rom coming soon​
So, we become 3.6 based ICS first.
But i think we'll become 4.0 later, too. I mean it's a very fast phone and the release date of it was may 2011. It's not yet a year old!
they has to release it to us!
As far i could read in a report from the MWC in Barca HTC Sense 4.0 will have first release with the new HTC one smartphone.
But if it is true.....nobody knows....
just wait for that One S that's coming to T-Mobile US, its got crazy similar hardware to our Sensations and its supposed to swap the tegra 3 for the snapdragon s4 (we have the s3). That rom should be much better.

android 4.0, ie. ice cream sandwich. not sense 4.0.
unfortunately no officially support for sense 4 on sensation...sorry.
After sense 4,waiting for sense 5...
Whats the difference anyway?
I find Sense 3.0 and 3.5 having nearly everything.
Getting an additional place to put an app's icon is not enough to be excited about...face lock? nice gadget...

How bout much lighter than Sense 3.0 and 3.5? HTC admits that Sense 3.0 onwards is bloated. They changed Sense 4.0 to be lighter
Just now, I have received an information from HTC Poland:
Yes, you will have the new HTC Sense 3.5 or later version when you upgrade your Android to Ice Cream Sandwich.

Still 3.6. final version
Whether or not Sensation gets Sense 4.0, we'll have to wait but it is a long wait. Maybe Q3/Q4 or maybe next year. Definitely not getting Sense 4.0 before the One series hit the stores and definitely not getting Sense 4.0 after One series are already selling.
We have wait a long wait.

Hell, I like the look of 3.6? Personal Preference i just wanted to know if its possible and you know its a nice OS i think.
I wouldn't expect much, unless you want to downgrade the whole OS to Gingerbread via a custom ROM (has that even been done already? Custom ROM with an OS downgrade from the original software?..). Sense 4 is tighly integrated with ICS, I don't think earlier Sense version will work with ICS - except maybe for single widgets/tools.
However, if Sense 4 is skinnable (don't know whether it is), I'd expect someone to create an "old Sense" theme sooner or later.

Dude,
You would NOT have to downgrade to gingerbread to get sense 3.6
Sense 3.6 is what comes with all the "older" HTC handsets being upgraded to ics. HTC wanted these handsets to look like their "old" sense (ie. 2.1 and 3.0/3.5) so as to not confuse their customers (ie. non techy) with something that looks different. Some poeple may prefer 3.6 as it comes with thing like the stock ics multitasking etc. At any rate, someone might want to do it "because they can".
Gingerbread is/was Sense 1.9, 2.1, 3.0 and 3.5
So sense 3.6 will work with ics, as it is only meant to work with ics, and on older / slower hardware.

Oh, I didn't realize that. I thought we were talking about the old Froyo/Gingerbread-based Sense on older devices, I completely forgot about them being upgraded to ICS too. In that case, yes, I guess 3.6 can be ported over from the Sensation or some other device.
