Hey Gentlemen,
I've been looking all over to see if anyone has developed a completely stock Gingerbread Rom. I'm tired of sense and just want some fast & simple vanilla android. Does anyone know of a Rom for it or if its in development ?
Thanks

havnt seen any yet but you might as well wait for CM7 like everyone else
CM7 - it's like stock Android, but better
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
Very cool, will do. Thanks.
Any word on a release date or if they've even started working on it?
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/ is going to be the best place to wait and watch.
Personally hoping for just a straight up AOSP build. To customize off of. Just have to wait and see.
where can i find a stock gingerbread but with sense 3.0 lockscreen rom?

nowhere. the sense 3.0 lockscreen relies upon sense. and right now, there aren't any "working" (read: daily driver-able) AOSP based builds working/released.
Hey guys i have the htc sensation z710e and I am running sense-o-maniac ICS 4.0.3. It is stable and no bugs but I am growing bored of HTC SENSE, does anybody know any roms for the sensation that are PURE ICS and stable? If so, please give me a link.
thanks,
sensation lover.
Virtuous made one where they manually removed the Sense features. But I think it's still a Sense framework and therefore basically still Sense.
I'm with you. I hate everything about Sense. I've tried it a couple times on the Sensation. It doesn't last an hour before I flash back to a pure AOSP alpha build of CM7 that has it's share of bugs...but that I still like better than Sense.
Best bet is to wait on CM9.
Virtuous Quattro is pure AOSP.

How did I miss this?
That's getting flashed tonight!
I come from using a nexus one, and before that a g1, so I am used to having vanilla android on my phone or at least having the option to have it. I bought the one S when my phone broke down thinking that the htc sense UI would not be such bad thing. However after a few weeks I still can't seem to get used to it and actually have grown to hate it. I installed a rom that doesn't have most of sense but it still doesn't have the same feel. So getting to my question, why isn't there a rom that is just plain ics without sense. Will this ever be available?
Also kind of off topic, but why was sense ever created? I understand that htc wanted to put a twist on android but wouldn't it be enough to create the apps and widgets? I feel like some of the key features of android are lost and for little gain. What is going to happen when jelly bean rolls out? Will one S owners have to wait more while htc tweaks it to work with sense again? I have gotten really used to the hardware aspects of this phone but I am contemplating switching over to a galaxy nexus just for the benefit of having vanilla android and having more development support.
Have you tried CM9 or Paranoid?

They are not AOSP, they are based on it. And heavily modded. This dude just wants AOSP.

CM9 isn't aosp???? My phone says otherwise. Willing to bet aokp is too... what are you talking about? CM9 isn't a sense rom dude

aren't they all based on Sense kernel? which beats the purpose of it all.

Idk man... I'm new to this phone, but I know my phone is now on Android 4.0.4, and there isn't a single hint of sense ANYWHERE in the ROM. I also had to flash a different kernel so I would be willing to bet its not on the stock kernel

that differen kernel is still based on a heavy "sensed" one by HTC. easily tested by it's multitasking ability or lack thereof. i don't think anybody "de-sensed" it completely yet.

CM9, AOKP and Parandroid are not sense Based. Ohe kernel is not sense based. a good example is MIUI, there are 2 MIUI builds, one is AOSP based (based on CM9) and the other one is sense Based.
Want proof by your own? flash CM9 or AOKP and flash a sense kernel on top of it and try to boot the phone. you will get a boot loop.
CM9 is the closest you will get to an AOSP pure vainilla rom since is based on it.
You guys on the first page must be pretty challenged... CM9, AOKP, and PARANOID are based off the the CM9 source. They have NOTHING to do with Sense. The only Sense based ROM (not stock ROMs, IE TrickDroid) is one version of MIUI as it has the stock Sense camera and such...
Sense was created because it's what HTC wanted. Why is there TouchWiz, Moto Blur, or anything else like that? It's because the device manufacturers wanted their own version. Thank the dev team for the option to switch different version of Android... We will only have AOSP ROMs and not ever stock ICS (no mods) ROMs because there is no stock ICS for our device. Only Sense or AOSP.

That's really funny that you're calling him out when CM is definitely not stock vanilla ics.
So, the easiest answer to this question is because no one, including the OP, has created one yet, if its even possible with what there is to work with.
I'm actually pretty happy with all of the options devs have created for this phone.
only "nexus" phones have vanilla ics

Not as funny as you saying CM9 is not aosp. It is built from aosp and made to look look and act like aosp. Don't understand you fools?????

He never said that. Relax, man. The OP is just commenting on how he's tired of Sense and would prefer a more vanilla experience.

What does "stock ICS" actually mean in this context? AOSP is the true Android experience as Google intended, right? So, is stock ICS something else?
So we can get:
AOSP - original;
AOSP - customized;
Sense - original (default)
Sense - customized.
Is this correct?
Wouldn't we be able to get TouchWiz ROMs, for example?
I'm new to flashing ROMs and all, but I've been following the scene for the past few months, and even though I can say I'm among the brighter people, I still have difficulties understanding - mostly - the nomenclature of the scene.
We don't have it because is EVIL. That stupid google search gadget permanently stuck to all pages is ridiculously stupid. Plus indeed a lot of the interface. HTC Sense is like a cool breeze.
well i come from HTC Sensation ROMS, and in that sections there are a lots of "Senseless ROMS" where everything related with sense is removed, except for the camera, and the roms were so smooth and as fast as AOSP ROMS, the feeling was exactly the same,
I hope someone make a senseless rom for HTC One S soon because its really awesome (like a AOSP rom without any bug becaus its based on a sense rom byt without any sense part)

There are AOSP roms; they are just in the alpha stage of development and rather buggy in some areas. If you want a senseless ROM (as in the actual sense launcher removed), any of the HTC-based roms (including stock, non-rooted phones) can have Sense removed and replaced by any launcher from the market. I've tried the existing AOSP roms, and aside from the bugs... the stripped down HTC-roms as just a quick.
I love the developers work. enjoying it alot... is there any rom having sense 5.0 for htc sensation... it will be great fun...
Hats off to you developers..
Once again, love your work..

Sense 5 is based on JB, which is NOT available for the sensation YET, haven't you seen the CAMERA bug under TeamVenom's ViperS JB with Sense 4+? Well that's due to lack of ION for our kernel, and TeamVenom is currently working on it. So whenever Sense 4+ is ready, it'll be much easier to work on Sense 5.
I'm entirely new to android and i'm jst an end user who like to use new roms for his phone.. i hav an htc explorer and when i looked for sense based roms i found that there are only ICS based sense roms on the net and was just wondering why aren't there any jelly bean based sense roms??
It is important to accept that porting a ROM form another device is very tedious. You have to ensure compatibility of both software and hardware. HTC devices currently having Sense 4+ (which comes with JB) are the HTC One series, Evo, Butterfly, and the Desire X. All of them have an entirely different interface when compared to our Pico.
cute_prince just ported Sense 4.1 from Desire X, so it also may be possible for Sense 4+. All we have to do is wait and let the devs do their work. As a clear XDA rule is - no ETAs! Just one word..... Soon!

i'm sry if it felt like an accusation towards the devs.. i knw how hard it is to port an entirely different ROM to another device.. i was just surprised that there isnt any JB based sense ROM when all the sense based roms are ported from phones with ICS nd when those phones hav been updated to JB why havnt ny1 ported these roms as of yet.. i kst wanted to knw if its even possible or sense based ROMs for our beloved pico will nly be available with ICS only.. i'm sry if i came out a lil harsh bt it ws jst pure curiousity..
Your curiosity is nice. The simple answer is that our kernel does not have a few of the features that sense 4+ uses and so although developers like @cute_prince have ported it without any known problem in the code, things like display are unfixable. Thus, until developers like @sakindia123 decide to form a team to port a kernel with these features (kernel 3.4 would be suitable) like they did for kernel 3.0.16, putting an effort into porting sense 4+ will be rendered useless

oh.. it never came in my mind that an entirely new kernel may be required for that purpose.. well i hope that the developers u mentioned start thinking abt that becoz we all knw JBs performance are much better then ICS
i've been using CM10 for over 2 mnths now and the only reason stopping me from trying out the sense ROMs is the fact that they are based on ICS which evryone seems to say contain some lag or some other prblm.. i jst thought JB being a better base then ICS would be more suitable for porting sense ROMs to our pico
well i would really look forward to and wait expectantly towards the day when some excellent devloper would port a sense 5 JB for our phone..

You are partially wrong. JB isn't a better base at all. It is more processor heavy and only has smooth graphically. It actually lags compared to ics which is much worse for old hardware. Also the notification drawer lags in jelly bean even in fast phones like the htc one x
