HTC Support: ICS for Sensation with Sense 4 - HTC Sensation

Actually all were told in title, but source is an post from FB HTC Polska page. One of users asked HTC Support about this, and get answer on e-mail, then shared: ICS coming to Sensation with Sense 4.

Ummm huh?
Really?
There is no other info regarding sense 4 on the net...

I shared what I found, I found something, that is shared by some1 who propably asked. You want proof - go, ask HTC too, that's not painfull.

I don't thinks so.

These "supports" are unreliable sources - experience with HTC Desire & Asus Transformer also proves my point.

I think that too, but I don't see reason for not sharing this

To bring ICS update together with Sense 4.0 would make... sense.
Dev team resources are scarce and maintaining different branches is time consuming.
Continued development of Sense 3.6 is unreasonable. I see it as it served the purpose while Sense 4.0 was still not ready for the release.

I get the same answer from HTC Polska
Dziękujemy za kontakt w kwestii HTC Sensation.
Aktualizacja 4.0 prawdopodobnie bedzie dostepna dla telefonu HTC Sensation, na chwile obecna nie mozemy jeszcze okreslic daty premiery nowego oprogramowania.
Jeśli w przyszłości wystapią jakiekolwiek problemy z telefonem HTC prosimy o kontakt z nami.

I'll let you know

I don't think that ROM from elevate will be with Sense 4. If yes - there is actually no reason why ICS should be released at the end of march, not february

99.999999999% it won't be Sense 4.0 - why would an old handset get it before their Flagship handsets? Makes no business sense

exactly!
it happened with desire hd too: came with froyo and sense 2.0; updated to gingerbread and sense was 2.1 and after some months after the sensation it had sense 3.0
I believe we are going to see ics with sense 3.6 on march and in autumn an update to sense 4

well i think that too but why htc polska said that? that's the problem...or they are lying or we will get ICS in autumn with sense 4.0
however there is still a small chance to get it soon hope so

HTC Desire HD came with 2.2 Froyo and got an update to 2.3 Gingerbread with sense 2.1 like all htc phones.
On the other side Sensation didn't get any updates, we are from the beggining on 2.3 Gingerbread with 3.0 Sense... So this is completly different
OR
We will get Sense 3.6 like the One V, so it will have everything except the 3D Launcher (i think)

Probably more like the HTC guy who said that knows less than **** all. Like Eddy says, there's no way we will get sense 4 update before they release they're new line of phones.

I'll be satisfied with a stable and official ICS release! We are officially on android 2.3.4 since august!

I was talking with HTC on my own, 2h ago. They said, that Piotr (HTC Support) made mistake (Piotr is a guy from support, from my 1st post). They say to me: this was mistake, and we will get Sense 3.6 with ICS, but be sure - we get Sense 4 in OTA Update some time after ICS release. Anyway I saw in this thread someone copied second message from HTC Polska Support with same info: Sense 4 with ICS.
So, my conclusion is: information is so fresh in HTC, and not everyone knows this, but what about Anna? (she said 3.6 with ICS to me). She said "I've checked informations directly in Taiwan".
I don't know what to think about all of this. Anyway good info is that we will get Sense 4 anyway.

I think people keep confusing android 4.0 with sense 4.0. That's why we keep getting this mixed infos.

Hi OWNHERE, can we expect the ROM of Gingerbread with SENSE UI will be launched by you soon ? By the way, your 4.0.2 is awesome.
I thought Wildfire S comes with Sense 3.0 and gingerbread 2.4
I know this might be a dumb question but how to you even try extracting the file? I am just trying to learn so I might be able to help with the development area a little.

thank you. but this Marvel(WildfireS) RUU is mdpi sense.
waiting DesireS ROM leak.
till april or may we will not see any leaked or oficial download for gingerbread with sense 3.0. wildfire s and whatever the other phone's name is, are low range - best mid range phones. wait to be a leak with gingerbread and sense 3.0 for incredible s desire s. dhd etc. stop hoping u'll get awesome **** from a wildfire s.
Same goes for the froyo from incredible s, is same as ace with only one button changed. We all want gingerbread with nice sense integration but is not yet available sorry for ruining your dreams for now

for a stable rom like HD n Z, users need to wait for Desire S dump.
Scaling pngs to HDPI isnt all that hard, but tbh isnt worth the effort i doubt many ppl would really use the rom compared to the AOSP/CM out there, just a lot of wasted space on sense roms.
Here is a better system dump of the wildfire s rom which someone confirmed in evolution 4g forum that this one is a real gingerbread dump! I downloaded this file and there are all the system folders included.. there aren't any image files! Can someone please try to port it? If knew how to do that I would do it myself...
Here is the link: http://www.morninglion.com/tp2martin/Marvel_Dump.zip
Mm, thanks for the link - i couldn't unpack Marvel image too, will check it out

The site suggests an ota update to android 4.0.3 with sense 3.5 in march.
The latest leak we have is android 4.0.3 with sense 3.6.
bro we have to wait till htc edge/ville goes official...then our great devs will port ICS4.0.3 WITH SENSE4.0 for our sensations.

[Q] ICS 4.0.3 Htc Sense 4.0

I read somewhere that HTC will release an ics whit sense 4.0 for sensation and sensation xe in europe.
Can someone give me the link where I can check?
It's not Sense 4.0.
We will get official Sense UI 3.6 / 3.5 and ICS.

Nobody knows which Sense version is DEFFINATLEY releasing with ICS. Though 3.6 is likely.

Is the Sensation getting Official ICS Yes/No

I just got one yesterday, just a standard Sensation and i am going to send it back if it does not getting official ICS , while i can still return it.
I have searched, but all i can find is unofficial rom`s
GSMarean says it getting V4.0 ICS are they correct.
Thanks
John.

Yes, there will be an ICS update end of march.
Will it have Sense v4.0?
Thanks
John.
Not intially, no - why would HTC release Sense 4.0 when their new handsets aren't out yet?
There's talk of the Sensation NOT getting Sense 4.0 but only HTC know what's going on - they said the Desire HD wasn't going to get Sense 3.0 but look how that went!
I'm running ICS at the moment - officially from HTC - and it's better than 2.3 but still not a patch on the Galaxy Nexus IMO

Congratz on your cool Sensation...Enjoy your new toy here on XDA
Its coming by the end of March not at the end of March there is a huge difference you know
The sensation most probably will get a stripped sense 4 Rom.

Sense 5 on DS

Seeing as most of the 480*800 devices have a sense 5 discussion thread I decided to have one for us
So devs in DHD have already gotten their device to boot with a lot of effort and u can check it out @

P.S: Is there anyone from DESIRE S forum working in this...truely speaking I'm a noob @ porting roms. I'm sure there are ppl who want to see jb sense on our device

Both would need similar kernel...so if we get 4+ working ,we can get 5 too!!

I see no reason why we wouldn't want/have Sense 5 on DS. HTC is going to put S5 into weaker devices anyway, aren't they?

I'm from HD2 forum (porting sense 5)
Advice:
Get a ION kernel first
Use the Desire 600 system dump for now
HTC One Mini is also out now so we can use files from that possibly?

I'm pretty sure sense 5 has been ported to the one s and one x which makes it easier but there will need to be a lot of resizing

Yh the One S has sense 5, its called TrickDroid by @torxx
@doga.ozkaraca is working on it for One V. If he gets it for One V the chances for Desire S getting it are high (Seeing as One V and Desire S are very similar)
If anyone starts working on a kernel that would be great!!that is the biggest leap we have to take!!

So guys Let me Be The Peace Maker .
Yes Me And @XxXPachaXxX and @E.l.I.e_A Managed to boot and to make it working as you can see in this post now about the build we are making it strictly closed source and we are not publishing anything before we get it legal and ligit.
Now about other devices Like for the HTC One V He will be getting it to becaue when you can make ion here work you now the right method to make it work else where .
So The Devices Will Follow Like This.
HTC Desire HD First TO Get JB
HTC Incredible S Second to get JB
HTC Sensation XL Third To Get JB
HTC Desire C Fourth To Get JB
HTC One V Fifth To Get JB
And almost all 480 x 800 will get as we will have a publish date for all and then we are making it open source{By That i mean stock JB Booted ROM For ROm Devs}
So Do We Have A Booted JB Sense 4+ Version on DHD ?
Confirmed

Strange not to see our device, but I think, if one of these devices gets the ROM, then we'll see ports to our device by our device's devs, which would be awesome! I really hope to see it soon.
if they make it for DHD it can be ported to DS easily I think as DHD has the same hardware as DS
